Scarcity Of Moisture.

J. ID. NOnihon, who came to Ari-
zona in 1868, says that in all the
many years he has lived in Arizo-
ma, he has never known such a
scarcity of water as exists today,
says the Democrat. Mr.. lIonihon
says in 1854 there was four feet of
snow at Prescott and good sleigh
ing for months, and in Flagstaff
the snowfall reached twelve feet
that winter. There was an abund-
ancc Of water in every portion Of
Arizona. The gentleman is not a
whit discouraged by the non-ap-
pearance Of rain, but thinks that
we will become a prosperous and
happy country. (What's wrong
with us now?)
The amount of freight being re-
ceived here is by far the largest in
the history Of Wickcnburg. Dur
ing the past month no less than
seven gasoline and steam hoists
and whims have been installed on
mines in sections contributory to
the town. Besides this large
number of ears of lumber and 9TH
er material have been received,
making the amount Of incoming
freight remarkably large for the
size Of the town

NOT MADE IN PRINTING.

A burglar broke into Captain
Banta's sleeping parlors in the
rear of his print shop in Douglas
and proceeded to transfer large
bank roll from under the Captains
pillow to his person. While he
was fumbling with the combination
the Captain awoke and landed his
bolo hard on the burglars bump

swell. After the man had recover
ed from his astonishment, he was
very indignant and claimed that
he came in to pay four years sub
scription to the paper and finding
the Captain asleep proceeded to
put the money under his pillow.
The Captain made all the apologies
that man could make for his grie-
vous mistake, even offering to
throw in an extra year, but it was
no 90. Banta refuses to be COM
forted, saying that he had knocked
in the head the only smile of for
tune that had looked in on him
since he came over in the Californ-
ia column. For revenge the fellow

INCREASING RECEIPTS.
Freight Received Here Is Averaging
Over Car Day.

The amount OF freight being re
ceived is the best indication of the
growth taking place here and the
increased amount of development
work being done. The month the
Orc Grande strike was announced =,
the freight receipts for the entire
month amounted to $1736. so.
Since then the amount of freight
being received at this station has
been gradually increasing and for
the last two weeks in May amount
ed to over 100000, being nearly
four times as great as when the
new growth started. The number
of pounds of freight received here
during May was S06,990 lbs, be
ing approximately twenty-seven
cars. or an average of one car for
every week day during the month.
This certainly speaks well for the
mining industry around Wicken-
burg and we doubt if there is a
town in the territory Of equal size
which can show the same amount
Of incoming freight.
Taking the freight being received
at Morristown and Martinez in
connection with that received here,
one can readily see that there is
''something doing'' in the mining
line in this particular section OF
| Arizona.

be the main object Of every citizen.

but with united work in the inter
est Of the community, much can be

ACCIDENT AT

4 Skip Wheel Comes Off As

ADVANCEMENT
OF ARIZONA.
Mining Activity Noticeable All
Over Arizona and Much OF
1t Is Around Here.

The Daily Mining Record Of Col
orado Springs, the best mining pa
per in the United States, and one
which covers mining news OF the
entire West, speaks as follows Of
Arizona mining conditions and es-
pecially that section around Wick
enburg and Prescott: "We have re
peatedly OF late called atten-
ton to the condition of activity
prevalent in Arizona mining. Oar
special correspondence from the
territory shows that there is much
capital seeking investment in that
inviting field, and that as work
progresses very important finds are
being made. In some instances
the strikes are of monster proper
tions. This is particularly the case
in the vicinity OF Wickenburg,
where operators are developing tre-
mendous lodges of gold-bearing ore,
the descriptions Of which can hard
be appreciated by people used to
the smaller veins of other sections.
As money is invested in mines
and the mines develop ore bodies,
there is evident commendable en-
terprise in the matter Of the up
building of the sister industries.
Mills and smelters have deem pro
jected, and some are already under
way. In addition, the railroads
are building to the new mining
camps, and are doing their share
in pushing along the mining in
dustry OF the territory The new
Stock Exchange at Prescott is de-
signed to the end of advertising
the possibilities for the investment
of capital in Arizona mines, and
generally there is q healthy activity
and q commendable enterprise eVi-
denced by the mining men OF The
territory"
The Daily Mining Record is do
ing much to advertise the mineral
resources Of Arizona, and has an
able representative here in the per
son OF A. b. Noxon. Mr.. Noxon
was the originator and prime mover
in the Stock Exchange movement
and it is to be hoped his efforts
will be crowned with success.

MEN STRIKE
AT O'BRIEN'S
But Others Have Taken Their
Places and the Develop
ment Work Continues.

On Tuesday, eight of the men
working in the shaft at the O'Brien
mine, seventeen miles northeast Of
here, demanded an increase in
wages, and this being refused, they
instituted what they were pleased
to call "strike", but the same
has attracted little attention and
the jobless miners now realize that
their strike really amounts to a
change in the working force only.
Mr.. O'Brien is working three
eight hour shifts and paying $500.
When the men demanded $3.50,
he agreed to pay that amount for
ten hours work, the same as is paid
Ny the Orc Grande and other large
properties in this section. He pre-
ferred, however, to work three
eight hour shifts so as to utilize all
the time unavailable, being anxious
to hasten development work At
last reports a full force worked.

INDEPENDENCE
BEATS WEALTH.
Editor Perkins Of the St. Johns
Herald Tells a Few Truths of
Newspaper Conditions.

Editor Perkins of the st. Johns
Herald must be up against some
close listed delinquent subscribers
from the way he writes in his last
weeks paper. We hope Mr.. Perk-
ms did not embark in the news
paper business with the idea of
making any money. That would
not only be foolish but against the
statutes OF delinquent subscribers.
A newspaper man is supposed to
work for pastime and because he
likes it and one sordid enough to
even dream of earning enough for
two meals a day and three on Sun
days has no place in the philan-
thropic pastime. A full stomach
is not supposed to be conducive to
brain work and the public evident
ly think so, for they generally
keep an editor in the pinkest con-
dition for brain work. But such
is life. Perkins has no kick COM
ing and needn't 90 hungry, living
in a sheep country, We would
like to turn him loose in Wicken-
burg for a time, to pasture on cya-
nide taiings and fatten his hollow
ed cheeks and paunch with the
ree-for-all waters OF the Hassa
yamp. .Perk up, Perkins; lambs
will soon be ripe and there is a
hereafter
The editor Of small country
paper has one great advantage over
his metropolitan brother. He can
be as independent as the devil and
say and do what he likes, for there
are no strings attached to him and
the average small town editor does
not make enough net profit in d
years time to get bowl Of crack
ers and milk, with prize.winning
dairy COWS two bits a dozen and
parrot cages all over the shop.
But what Of it? We are independ-
ent and no one can prevent us from
telling the truth fearlessly while
alive and lying peacefully when
dead. We%would not barter our
independence for the New York
Journal, poor as we are.
Editor Perkins says, in part:
Where is the cuss who does not
laugh at an editor if he wears poor
clothes? If the same editor, bv
some streak of good luck, gets two
dollars on subscription and a new
suit Of clothes, why does the same
cuss call him a CRATER? Why is
it an editor should rustic for news
when he STAYS in his Office, or why
should he be attending to his own
business when he is hustling fol
locals?
For all that his readers bring
his troubles upon him by taking
his paper for years and never pay
ing for it and finally end up by
refusing to take the paper from the
post office. Oh! the scalawag who
disgracer the shape of man thus.
He hasn't the nerve to sit down
and write the editor friendly OF
other kind of q note, telling him to
root hog or die and that no money
is coming from thence. May such
a miscreant gain the reward he de-
serves. May he be tied up in that
land where it is as hot as Pelee and
there be compelled to listen to
another of his kind, read and re-
read the laments of poor editors
who have lived on short ratiOns in
order to let this spawn of malodor
Gus dishonesty pose as being a
man interested in home affairs and
put up q show of supporting the
local press. Let the man who sent
away for his job printing in the
