Is afraid he cannot control in the
next convention. For several week s
the int nation has gone out that
DR.. Whitesides of Chloride has the
Ip II with the democrats and that
the genial doctor cannot be con-
troled by the editor of The "rat"
sheet in any way. For this the
rat editor is doing his level best
to counteract Whitesides' influence
with the party and shut him out of
the convention. AS we understand
it, DIR. Whitesides is an old line
democrat, not one of the half-breed
fellows who went over to the party
for revenue only. The old line
democrats have mad to take back
seat for years past on account Of
the office seeking propensities of
the half-breeds, and they may have
to agan go away back and set
down, as the fellows who ha,e e been
republicans, popnlists, democrats,
socialist and anarchists or any 9th
er old thing for revenue, are still
somewhat in the majority. Prac-
tically all the men mentioned for
office on the democratic ti,ket are
half.breeds and have been seeking
office every year since their advent
in the county. If the people like
it it is just the thing they like and
they suould stand in ith the play,

The taxing of the product of the
Transvaal mines will make slow
work Of the starting up of these
great properties. Many of the in
vestors are now looking into new
nelds and with the experience they
have gained in South Africa they
will be able to work lower grade
mines than the ordinary mining
man of this country The mines
of the Transvaal gave values of
less than five dollars to the ton and
the recovery was had by the eva
nide process at a considerable ex-
pense. Owing to the great tonnage
of the mines immense dividends
were paid until the opening of the
war. Now it will take millions to
put the mines on the same basis
they were when shut down and at
the same time the owners will have
heavy taxation to withstand.
Many of these investors are now in
Arizona and Colorado looking for
something good to which they can
turn their attention.

The sheep men who have been
ruled off the forest reserves of the
country will be- interested in the
recent decision of Judge Dehaven
at San Francisco, who held that
there was no law to force sheep
owners to observe the rulings Of the
department of the Interior. The
operation of this rul has caused
the loss of considerable money to
the sheep and cattlemen of Coco
nino coun y, but hereafter they will
probably refuse to pay tribute.

Among the effects of a deceased

Among the effects of a deceased
jurist, in the state of New York
was found recently a letter from
David B. Hill, dated in the fall of
1896, in which that wiley politician
stated that it was hard TO rec ncile
democratic principles with those
enunciated by the democratic ma
tional convention, but that he wa i.
a democrat still-very still". De-
spite this fact David came near
being the nominee of the democrat
ic party for president in 1900. Had
he consented to have his name
placed in nomination the entire
south would have stampeded to
him.

Colorado River and Territorial lrriga.
tion

]
Some Of the people of the Salt
River Valley have located dam
sites in the Grand Canyon of the
Colorado, north of Williams, and
will make an effort to generate
power to pump water out Of that
great gorge and carry it to Phenix
Ten or eleven years ago the MINER
called the attention of the people of
the valley to the lreat possibilities
of the Colorado riv,r for the irri-
cation of that section, but the idea
was laughed at. Now there is no
other resource, for water sufficient
to irrigate the lands of the Salt
River country can be had nowhere
else. But the people will find that
to take water from the Canyon at
the point where they have located
the dam sites will be an impossi-
bility. The Canvon from the rim
to the bottom is nearly six thousand
feet deep and requires twenty.one
miles of trail to reach the bottom
In the lower part of the Canyon il
can be approached very readily
and twenty-five miles and rise of
three thousand feet will put the
water at an elevation that it can be
carried to any part of the territory
west of Ash Fork. In connection
with the location of these dam sites
the statistican who resides in the
Capital City, gives it out that the
Colorado river flows the enormous
G) amount of 100000 miners
inches of water during its normal
stage and 100000 miners inches in
flood times. As the river in flood
time shows raise of thirty feet at
Yuma and nearly one hundred in
parts of the Cany on, we fail o
grasp the enormity of the figures
of the Phenix gentleman. The
fact is that the river flows more
than 100000 miners inches OF
water in normal stage and more
than 5,000,000 inches in food.
Why, the little canals of the Salt
River valley have carrying ca
pacity of 125,000 miners inches
and all these canals could be filled
to overhowing from this Colorado
river without causing an apparent
subsistence. The fact 10 that the
Colorado river can furnish enough
water for all irrigation purposes in
this territory and leave a big river
Of water still flowing. A dam can
be put in the Canyon at a small
cost and the water pumped to an
eminence by easy stages, thence to
any part of the country that may
be desired by gravity. Besides the
generation of power for this pur-
pose power enough can be also gen.
Grated to propel every piece of ma
chinery in Arizona and can be car
ried to the cities of the Pacific
coast, where it can be sold at big
profit. The scheme is one of great
magnitude, but the day is quite
near when it will be done.
