NOW OR NEVER.

The very air in Arizona is today
tense with expectancy. Every
one interested in the welfare of the
territory is conscious OF a feeling Of
suspense as to the outcome of the
fight being made for statehood and
equal rights in this great and supp
osedly free and equal union of
states, for it is fight beyond ques-
ton.
We are today fighting for our
qndeniable rights and it is proving
a hard fight. Men OF power and
influence IN the east, who should
be above party and person al in
terest in vital question of this
kind, are strenuousfy opposing the
admittance of Arizona, Oklahoma
and New Mexico into the Union.

what they are-they are certainly
entitled to statehood and rccogniz-
ed equality with the other states.
Arizona today has less, crime,
less illiteracy and more money per
capita than most of the states. vet
some of the self constituted critics
of the east, with their wild ideas
and woody imaginations, refer to us
as a wild AMI woody people needing
restraint and incapable of properly
governing ourselves.
The very idea Of Arizona remain
ing longer in vassalage is ridicu-
lous, and not at all in keeping
with the Constituti on and the
platform of the two political
parties. Cuba has been granted
independence. Think of it, people
of Arizona! Cuba has been grant
ed independence and declared free
and capable of self government, yet
the Solons of the east, the Wise
Men of the East, are debating and
SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING whether we,
the free born and naturalized citi-
zens of the United States are men
tally and physically capable Of
making and enforcing laws which
will render Arizona a suitable and
well behaved member of the coterie
of states. Wouldn't that ar you.
We were born in the east and
have lived in the east, but we now
live in Arizona, not through COM
pulsion. but because we would
rather live a beggar here in this
sun kissed, God inspired, only free
and equal cline, than to be indie
pendently rich anywhere in the
sordid, narrow minded and plnched
up east.
We have asked for, implorcd,
pleaded, and begged for statehood
and the time has now come when
we must fight for it and come right
out and make such showing that
the Senate dare not refuse this, our
undoubted, indisputable and con-
stitutional given right.
Work for it. Write to your eastern
friends who have influence and urge
them to work for it, and if you
have any faith in the power and
efficiency of prayer, pray for it.

GOOD WORK.

l.. H. Hamilton, secretary of the
Phoenix and Maricopa County
Board of Trade, is doing good work,
not alone for that organization and
the county, but for the entire terri
tory. Mr.. Hamilton represents a
number of metropolitan dailies, as
we'll as some of the leading mining
papers of the county, and through
these sources is and has been doing
much to advertise the wonderful
mineral and others resources of
Arizona. He also has column
every week in the Arizona Mining,
Hotel and Railroad News, from
which we take the following:
New York, Ohio and Illinois
capital is going into the country
ranging east, north and west Of
Wickenburg. ii that locality were
located in Colorado, Wyoming Or
California it cannot be doubted
that such a rush as has not been
known since the early days of Cal
ifornia gold would occur. 1t is not
exaggcration to state that for fifty
miles about Wickenburg to the
Colorado river, gold ore of richest
quality can be found everywhere.
The wonderfully rich strikes which
have been recently made at the ORC
Grande mine north of Wickcnburg
have never been equalled in their
enormitv and richness of the ore
bodies, while every day brings rep
orts of big finds in the county rang
ing from the White Picacho district
west to the Harqua Hala noun
tains. The sale Of a group of three
mines, adjoining the McCabe mine,
near Prescott, for total of S150O0J
was closed few days ago by
Frank jaeger, at the head of Chi
cago syndicate, and the Picacho
Blanco company has added two
more large groups OF claims at
consideration of 100000, to its
recent purchases of the Exposition
and San Domingo mines.
Denver capital in large quaint
ties is going into the country south
of Bill Williams Fork. and into
placer fields i'll the Harqua HaIa
desert. Plans are being laid for
several dams for the diversion of
the waters of the Colorado river
and Bill Williams Fork, for the
9per. alton of ancient and rich work
ings on the desert, where Indian,
Mexican and Aztec workmen have
worked out gold for centuries, by
their crude dry processes, while a
score Of dredging companies are
cleaning the sands of the HASA
Yampa and Colorado rivers.

PIPE DREAMS.

"The Hassayampa river is lower
than it has been for the past forty
years. The river is dry for dis
tance of thirty miles above the Brill
ranch, and Henry Wickcnburg is
sinking his old well ten feet deeper.
This well has supplied Mr.. Wicken-
burg and his customers for thirty
years, and the present season is the
first time that it has showed signs
of weakening This condition APP
plies to all rivers in the southwest.
The ironwood trees that have stood
'on the deserts near Harqua Hala
for thirty and forty years are now
drying up and decaying for lack Of
moisture in the earth"
The above is going the rounds
OF the press, credited to the Arizo-
nu Democrat. There is little of
truth in the article and we wonder
where the Democrat got its infor-
nation. 10 an ignorant person,
the Hassayampa is q dry river in
many places, but below the Brill
ranch and above it, in numerous
places, there is visible stream Of
several hundred miners inches,
while the underground stream is
many times larger. Water can be
had anywhere in the bed Of the
river almost at the surface. AS to
Henry Wickenburg sinking his
we'll deeper, this was done for stor-
age purposes because be has mat
erially increased the amount of
land being irrigated.
While the past few years have
undisputedly been dry, the HASA
yampa is not going dry ard the
trees remain as green as ever.

NEVER GIVE UP.

To succeed in mining man
must not only possess the necessary
means, but must also have an a
bundant supply of what is COM
monty called grit-the courage to
go ahead in the face OF Discourage
ment, and often contrary to the
dictates of experience, says the
Mining and Engineering Review
of Los Angeles, Cal. Scores Of
instances are quoted where mines
have been abandoned in despair
after large cx Q ditures; another
comes along and with a few feet
more work develops a rich produc-
ing property. So often has this
been the case that it seems almost
the rule.
Fortunately few such cases are
so sad as that of Michael Brennan,
an educated and refined Irishman.
who in early days, was sent from
New York to Grass Valley, Cal, to
snperintend the operations of the
Mt. Hope Mining Company on
Massachusetts, Hill. At first
successful, his operations began to
prove disastrous and after two
years of struggle against adverse
fortune, he was driven to despera-
ton, and took the lives, not only
of himself, but of his wife and
three small children. Later, an
other company took hold. The
proverbial another blast" was
fired, the ledge uncovered, and the
nine is still in successful operation
after having produced $4,000, 900
or $5,O0O,OOO
Another case in the same section
but not so ill-fated, is that of the
Grass Valley Consolidated. An
old property, known as the Green
Mountain, long considered good
but which had wrecked the fame
and fortune of more than one who
had operated it, was taken hold of,
and few foot of work uncovered
the iong-lost pay-shoot.
On the famous Grand Central
mine ut Tombstone, Arizona, the
owners spent $50,000 and were adj
vised by their superintendent to
stop work as there was nothing
there. They insisted on doubling
their loss or finding a mine. An
additional expense OF $4,000 found
the mine.
The great Colorado, at Minas
Prietas, Sonora, absorbed $4,000
and about all the faitn Of the own

HE SIMPLY DOESN'T KNOW
Mr.. Lfttfeneld should study the

President Roosevelt's second in his
contest with the trusts is Congressman
Charles T.. Littlefield of Maine. Little
field is undoubtedly valorous man
and will display great courage in he
presence OF the enemy. the trusts. but
he is not well posted on the details OF
his campaign. He said the other day:
There are hundreds and thouSa nds
Of corporations not protected by the
tariff. The Standard Oil company is
the biggest OF all trusts, and il has no
tariff protection whatever. Anthracite
coal is trust, and there is no tariff on
that. Go To free trade England. and
you Will lind the whole country honey

per fought them i'm 1910. They are all

falsity OF the statement that the tariff
is the mother OF trusts. The Govern

trusts. Now. strike on the tariT. and

of the countries of Europe that have
a high tariff there are numerous trusts:
that as our tin plate trust is now sell
