A correspondent of the New York
Sun writing from Phoenix has much
To- say regarding the herds OF wild
range horses in Arizona: The mus
tang hunt in northeastern Arizona a
few days ago was probably the last to
be held in the Territory. and perhaps
In all the west While once the wild
horses roamed in countless herds over
the plains and among the foothills OF
the Rocky mountains. they can be
found in few localities now. Forty
years ago they were scarcely consid-
cred worth the trouble of catching.
Later thousands were shipped to
the east, where they were known as
Indian ponies and were sold at prices
ranging from IS to $50. About ten
years ago Col. Ed Redmond held a
great round up of mustangs In eastern
New Mexico ana western Texas and
,e'' ar, IN more than five thousand
l A}h on his
rot.nd np and tried tie same thing
several times afterward in Utah, Tex
as and Wyoming. but never with re-
suits so profitable. In early days so
vast were the ranges at the disposal
of the cattle kings. that the grazing
of the wild horses never materially
interfered with the cattle. In the
last quarter of century the growth
of the cattle business and the utiliza-
ton of the public lands have done
away with the immense ranges OF the
cattle king days. and the mustang has
become a nuisance. He used the lin
tied range feed at the expense OF the
cattle men until he grew to be con-
sidered an outlaw and thief. and
then he was shot by the cowboys
whenever possible. In many instances
mustangs mixed with the ranch herds
and eventually became cow horses,
their stamina. speed and strength
usually making up for deficiency in
size A few years ago a black stall
lion, the leader of herd Of wild hors-
es in northern Arizona, was finally
shot after repeatedly showing his
heels to the best horses in the coun-
try. On his flank was the brand OF
the Bar l. ranch, large establish
ment, owned by the Perrin company.

SUCCESSFUL MINING DEALS.
James +. Wardner. the most success
full mining operator who has visited
this section in several years, left Sun
day last for San Carlos to examine
some mining property. Mr.. Wardner
..rst visited this section last summe,
to look at the Shannon property for
some investors. and was so favorably
impressed with the mining outlook
that he concluded to operate here.
Since that time he has closed three
important deals, which means much
for this section. 1t was through him
that the Stevens and Heating groups
were sold. and the properties placed
In the hands of strong companies
which will at once proceed with the
development of the properties on ar

so instrumental in inducing the Gila
River Water and Power company to
take hold OF three valuable water
rights on the San Francisco and Gila
rivers. where the company Will soon
begin operations for the development
of power. and where 1t Is expected
that the ores from the Stevens group
will eventually be worked. This lat

PROPOSED CYANIDE PLANT.
A Minneapolis company Is figuring
on taking over several mining claims
in the Gold Basin country with the
intention of putting in cyanide plant
to handle the ores. In and around the
Gold Basin country there are" many
mining claims showing good values on
the outcrop. but the scarcity of water
makes them hard to handle. There Is
no doubt that water can be obtained
in the mines IL depth is had. but to
take water into the camp will be all
expensive undertaking. The Colora-
40 river is only about twenty miles
away and there are places on the riv-
or in the canyons that can be utilized
TO generate power for all purposes,
and at the same time the ores can be
trammed to the river for reduction.

Republican Executive Committee.

The republican state executive com
mittee met at Little Rock on the 9th
inst. and made recommendations for
the appointment of the following par
ties to the Offices named: United
States marshal Of the eastern district
Col. A. S. Fowler. to succeed Hon.
Henry NJ. Cooper: collector of inter
nal revenue. Capt. F. w. tucker, OF
Clover Bend, to succeed Hon. h. L.

of the land office at Little Rock. Inc
following recommendations for post
masterships were also made: At Fay
etteville, B. F. Campbell; Rogers, w.
r. Cady; Bentonville, E. o. Lefore.
Resolutions were adopted condemning
the course of the faction known as In
surgents, who preferred charges at
Washington against number Of ONCE
holders. and who, it is said, are respon-
sible for the coming retirement from
office of one or two leading members
of the party. The strength of the IN
surgents in committee was not strong
enough to mar the plan mapped out by
the regulars, but the former threaten
to carry the fight into the rank and
file of the party in a general campaign.
Col. Foreman, of Texarkana, resigned
from the committee. and is succeeded
by j. w. Harris. 1t is the general be-
lief that President Roosevelt will re-
cognize the committee by appointing
those recommended TO fill federal Of

Il Observation-Disclosures first
Veto Message.

WASHINGTON. March 12.-President
Roosevelt yesterday sent his FIRST
veto message to congress. 1t was
directed TO the senate. and the bill
vetoed was one removing the charge
of desertion from the naval record OF
John Glass. The message was as
follows:
"There can be no graver crime than
the crime of deserton from the
army or navy, especially during war;
it is then high treason to the nation
and is justly punishable by death
No man should be relieved from such
a crime, especially when nearly forty
years have passed since it occurred,
save on the clearest possible PROOF
of his real innocence. In this case
the statement made by the aiilaht
before the committee does not III all
points agree with his statement made
to the secretary of the navy. In any
event, it is incomprehensible to me
that he should not have made erect
i've effort to get back into the navy
He had served but little more than
a month when he deserted, and the
war lasted for over a year AFTER
wards, yet he made no etlort wat
ever to get back into the war. Under
such circumstances it seems to me
that to remove the charge of deser-
ton would be to falsify the records
and do an injustice to his gallant
and worthy comrades who fought
the war to finish. The names Of
the veterans who fought in the civil
war make the honor list of the re-
public, and / am not willing to put
upon it the name of a man unworthy
of the high position.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"
After the message had been dclivl
cred Senator Gallingcr, from the
committee on naval affairs, read the
report of the committee on which the
senate acted From that statement
It appeared that Glass enlisted in
January, 1854, when only Is years
old, and that, having witnessed an
act which compromised the second
officer of the ship, he was taken
ashore in March of that year by that
officer and told not to report again
for duty. The committee say that
this order, together with Glass
youth, was responsible for his dcser'
ton.

ALARMING CONDITIONS.
Affairs in Southwestern MISSOURI
and Northern Arkansas are
Very Serious.
ALL OWNS TO LAST SEASONS DROUGHT
Farmers Have No Money To Purchase
Supplies and There Is Denrtn
of seed Corn and Potatoes Mort"
sngees Have the lniortunntes "t
Their Mercy.

st. Louis, March 1l.-Aceording to
accounts given by travelling men, and
other arrivals from southwestern
Missouri and northern Arkansas, the
conditions in that section of the
country are becoming alarming, on
account of last seasons drought.
Farmers have no money with which
to purchase supplies, and it is stated
on good authority that unless some
thing is done to relieve the situation
a serious food famine may occur be-
fore next summer.
Everywhere there is a dearth of
seed corn and potatoes, land even seed
with which TO plant spring truck
gardens. Stock is suffering from
lack of food in the drought-stricken
district, and the little feed there is
being held at such high prices as to
be almost out of reach Of the aver
age farmer Families in the rural dis
tricts are living on the plainest kinds
of fare, and even the supply of this
is running short.
The greatest sufferers are persons
living at distance from the rail-
roads. Corn there is being held at
81 per bushel, and wheat is selling at
the same figpre. In order to tide
their families and stock over the win
ter, farmers in many instances have
been obliged to mortgage their farms,
and in such transactions high rate
Of interest is being charged.
There is little or no work to be
found, and farmers are leaving their
homes for southern lumber camps,
in order to earn sufficient money to
keep their families alive. What causes
the most alarm for the future is the
lack of seed corn and potatoes, and
the lack of money to purchase any.
Indications are for favorable sea-
son, but many will be unable to take
advantage of it through lack of seed,
and stock with which to work the
farms.
The counties which are suffering
most are Barry, Stone fancy, Chris
tian. Ozark, Douglas, Wright, Texas
and Howell.

are asking Sl25. The demand is from
