The best friend of the Country ed.
itor" is the man who comes around to
the print shop when he hears anything
OF newsy nature and imparts it to
that individual. A good many peo-
pie, on the contrary, seem to make it
point to keep all tine news possible
away from the editor, and though
often in a position where they have
opportunity to hear and observe much
that would help to fill the news col
,umcs with interesting reading, have
never been guilty Of communicating
an item Of news to the print shop
drudge, the editor. We have often
accidentally stumbled onto an i'm
portant item and found, when we
came to run it down, that it had be-
come matter of common knowledge
about town for a week, and had been
discussed by everybody-when we
weren't around. The newspaper is al
ways to be found doing what it can to
advance the interests OF the town and
community and it would be but n fair
return for the citizens to make the
work n little easier by contributing
what they can in this line without
making the printer run himself down
looking for an item and use stomach
pump to get anything out of them.
its no use inquiring for news after
people form the habit of answering
that they "don't know anything"

PREHISTORIC BREAD.
Discovery Of a Loaf Baked Probably
Thousands Of Years Ago.

One OF the most notable contributions
60 the archaeological museums Of the Uni
versity Of Arizona has Just been added.
IT is nothing less than a loaf Of bread
found in cave dwelling in the Supersti-
tion Mountains Of central Arizona in 1879
and since that time in the possession Of
Herbert Brown. superintendent Of the
Territorial prison
The bread is undeniabIy bread. and
Without a doubt is Of great age. Il was
found imbedded in the ashes wherein fl
probably had been baked hundreds and
even thousands Of years ago.
II had very plainly been wrapped in a
cloth or mat. and the marks OF the fibre
Of the cloth are plainly visible in the
dark bricklike mass.
Mr.. Brown IS Of the opinion that the
bread was made Of mesquite beans. rough
~ ground IN metetes by the aboriginal
housewives Of centuries ago
With il was found a valuable store OF
ancient sacrihciaI implements. stone
axes, and arrow heads The loaf has been
carefully sterilized Dy the curator Of the
museum, and has been sealed within

But Little Public Opposition to the Pro-

the Last Few DAYS.

a meeting Of the personal tax subcom-
mittee Of the Senate District Committee
is being held this afternoon for the con-
sideTstion Of the question regarding per-
sonal tax in the District. Assessor Oar
nellie is before the committee and it is
understood that the entire subject Of
rates, methods, and probable financial
results are being canvassed thoroughly.
Another meeting will be held tomor-
row, and there viii be a conference be
tween the Senate and House personal
tax subcommittee at which il is hoped
that some agreement can be reached as
10 the exact nature Of the bill 70 be
drawn. II such an agreement is arrived
at there viii be little delay in the pas
sage Of the bill. it is said. and it may
be Law within two or three months.
The opposition of the business men gen
orally as expressed IN private converse
uOns, does not abate, but these interests
are apparently convinced that the law
is to be passed, and they have made no
recent public protests. especially as they
have been told by the financial people in
Congress that appropriations for improve
ments depend on such a law.
Assessor DaTneille estimates that 81
600, 900 a year can be collected on per-
sonalty- His plan is TO raise the revenue
largely from business houses that do not
at present pay any tax on their business.
