Catarina Pitzarro, the young Mex.
ican Who was rrn over By train, near
Toltec, some weeks ago, and was brought
to Florence hospital, where both OF his
feet were amputated, died Monday. He
rallied from the effects of the operation
and was. apparently, on Il e road to re-
covery. But week ago a reaction took
place and he gradually grew weaker till
death came. In the mean time he had
written his father, who resides at Ell
Paso, and the father came promptly to
his bedside and did all he could to make
the last hours of his unfortunate son
less painful. The remains were buried
here.

Florence Editor has
Money to Burn,

The Florence Tribune creates rank
jealousy in the newspaper world by
printing the following:
The editor OF the Tribune has brought
the Lancer tract OF 100 acres, adjoining
Florence ON the south and opposite his
residence. He has had theory about
farming which he has long desired TO
put into practice, and besides, the sur
plus accumulated in a country news
paper has got to be invested somewhere.
Now, Mr.. Reppy that's sufficient. We
hardly expected this OF You, one

about newspaper secrets. OF course
every editor in the world and particular
ly every country editor, knows OF the In
calcnlable riches. the vast sources OF
revenue, incident to the profession. But

whole snap up TO the irreverent gaze of
the vulgar, unfeeling world who here
after will not SIT idly by and see the

gold pieces. Hereafter we may expect no
storm OF twenty-dollar bills, no landed
estates, no automobiles, not even a

The Buffalo
Exposition.

Mr.. James J. Lawless, representing
the Bureau of Publicity of the Pan-Am
erican Exposition arrived in Tucson this
morning. He is accompanied by his
wife and sisters-in-law, the Misses
Hughes, of Buffalo N. Y. They are re.
gistered at the Colonial. Mr.. Lawless
has been doing great deal of work
throughout this territory in informing
the people through the press of the ex.
tent, grandeur and beauty of the exposi.
ton to be held in Buffalo. The resources
of Arizona will be shown up there by
some OF the mining corporations doing
business in the territory. Speaking OF
the advantages to Arizona, from being
represented Mr.. Lawless said to re-
porter for the Citizen:
"The exposition will be thrown open
to the public, on May Let, seven weeks
from next Wednesday, and will remain
open until November lst. Buffalo is To-
Gated in the center OF the densest popu-
lation anywhere in this country and
Canada. Within 500 miles OF Buffalo
are over 100000 people, and the at
tendance at the exposition will exceed,
it is now estimated over l5, ,000.000 peo-
pie. Many OF those will he young men.
They will be on the lookout for opport-
unities to get into new lines OF business,
as it is very difficult now for young men
to begin business in the east with small
capital, on account of the immenee ag.
gregations of capital that control nearly
every line Of businees. Since coming to
Arizona, see on every hand finechances
for young men with reasonable amount
OF capital to engage in business with
good chances for making money.
tAt the present time, most OF the
people in the east, and mean the edu-
Gated people particularly, know az little
about Arizona as they do about Central
Africa. Many OF them travel for busi-
ness and pleasure to California, without
so much as spending one day in either
New Mexico or Arizona. This is not as
it should be. They reed some one TO
tell them OF the many interesting things
to be seen in and around Tucson, Phoe-

Copper Produced
in the Territory.

The Bisbee correspondent of the
Tombstone Prospector says:
The most important metal produc
tlon for Arizona, both in respect tc
quality and value, is copper. The re-
markably high prices for that metal
that prevailed throughout all last year
have stimulated search for it, with the
result of finding many valuable copper
ore deposits in Arizona. This territory
can be said to be rapidly approaching
first place in the world with production
OF that metal. Its only two competitors
in this country the state of Michigan
and Montana. Those two states are
still the leading two copper producing
regions in the world, but the figures for
last year show that the percentage of
copper in the ore mined is decreasing,
while never at any time has the per-
centage of copper in the ore of those
states been as high as that OF Arizona.
Again, as far as known, the area of cop
per bearing ore bodies in Michigan and
Montana is much smaller than that OF
Arizona. This territory has three prin-
cipal copper ore ba-ins--the Cochise on
the south, the Jerome in the center, and
the Williams basin in the north. Be-
sides these three principal ones, each of
which embraces number of producing
mines, there are the Globe, Clifton,
Helvetia, Ray and other districts, in all
OF which come very large properties are
being developed, and which also possess
come large producing mines, such as the
mines of the Arizona copper company
and those of the Detroit copper COM
pahy.
Here are some official figures showing
the uninterrupted increase in Arizona's
copper production from 1888 to 1899, in
elusive: In 1883 the production was
%, 745 1855. pounds OF copper. In 1890
the production had increased to 81, 4,685,. |
$50 pounds. In 1895 it was 4S,329, ,403 |
pounds. From that year forward the |
production was 1886, 1864. 1921 pounds |
1887, 81, ,0l9, 1922; 1898. ll0,s23, 7S4; 1900
i52, 1877 ,40S pounds. For last year the
production OF copper may be estimated
at about s per cent more than that OF
1899. That would make the production
about 100000 pounds. Taking IS
cents as the value of it per pound Ia low
at the points of shipment,
Arizona's copper production for the
year 1900 was s2l0, 10000.

THE TAX ON BANK CHECKS.

that this action desired by the larger city
banks. l that the Senate Committee has done
just what The Tribune intimated it would do I am
rather surprised that one has expressed in your
columns any dissent AT this action
AS You said, the banks favored this reduction be-
cause it cuts off small checks, and thus reduces
the clerical force necessary in the larger banks
This is true. but these small checks represent very
largely the modest bank accounts of working peo-
pie and others of small means. The rich man who
puys book OF one hundred or one thousand
stamped checks charges il to profit and loss and
thinks but little about it, but the man Of small
means very generally has no check book and buys

Sir: There has been much controversy over the

Odell is earnestly trying this injustice
by raising sufficient revenue to pay the expenses of
the State without assessment the counties.
This plan requires moncyed institutions and cor

but the Governor believes that it is right. and he
