DANGER FROM FIRE.

It behoves the residents of Bisbee at the present time to take every pre- caution against fire. This can be bet ter accomplished by individual effort, and the efforts will be aided materially by providing a fire extinguisher to be kept within easy reach day or night.
 At the present time there is short age of water never known before i1 the history of this camp. Not only IS this true of this immediate locality, put from all over southern Arizona comes the intelligence of unprece- dented shortage of water. This is ia measure responsible for the con tinued high winds. and with the high winds and a shortage of water the conditions are such that a fire, once under headway. would be impossible to control.
 Within the next sixty days, with the completion of the Naco-Bisbee water line, we will have an abundant water supply for fire protection. but between now and that date lies the danger. On several different occasions, it has been demonstrated that the possession of fire extinguisher, and its use when the blaze was in it's incipiency, has averted a serious confiagratioa, and prevented a heavy loss. No prop erty holder in Bisbee can afford to | be without one. The Copper Queen store carries these extinguishers in stock, which may be purchased at cost Do not delay in so important a mat | ter

NEW GOVERNOR PROMISED SOON.

It has been known for six months that Colonel Alexander O. Brodie would succeed Governor Murphy when he vacated the executive chair. It has been a matter of doubt as to whether Murphy would be permitted to serve to the end of his term in Decem- Der next or be invited to step down and out at an earlier date It seems that President Roosevelt has at last reached a decision. He has no doubt been advised that If the republicans of Arizona were expected to make a respectable showing this fall it would be necessary to get rid of Murphy as soon as possible. It has no doubt been pointed out to the president that it would never do to go into campaign with a republican governor still in office against whom a suit was pend ing to recover money illegally drawn from the treasury. Not only that but it was no doubt shown to the president that the governor and his former audi. tor were resorting to every technical. ity known to the law to aviod . trial of this suit in court.
 President Roosevelt, 1t is said. hates a quibbler, and has no use for sharp practice of any kind. and 1t is not strange that he has made up his mind to induct Colonel Brodie into the gov. ernor's chair in Arizona at an early day

GROWTH OF ADVERTISING.

There is DO business agency which has grown more in favor with success full business men, or grown so indis- pensible in all lines of trade as adver- Using, and there is no business agency which has been revolutionized and i'm proved more than that of newspaper advertising. Thirty years ago a busi- ness man thought it sufficient to sim ply place his name and business an- nouncement in the local paper, and no more thought was given it, and 1t was considered as useless to change an ad- vertisement as 1t was to change the sign over the front door.
 Now the progressive merchant con. siders the matter of advertising as of greater importance than any other de- tail Of his business, and he gives to fl his best thought, and is constantly on the lookout for new ideas and new designs in advertising which will at- tract the attention of the public. Ad. vertisements are changed daily and weekly, and scarcely an article now reaches a store without having its ar. rival announced in the advertising space in the newspaper. Whenever a bargain price is set on an article it IS announced in the advertisement, like of. Thirty years ago country mer' chants had to travel long distances to make purchases of seasonable goods and drummers were scarce. Now the travelling salesmen come in gangs and reach every business man, large or small
 Personal solicitation for trade is only one form of advertising. It is a means of making known the inducements of fered by business houses for trade. l, is not possible to personally solicit the trade Of all customers, who may be secured by retail stores, but the mer chant may reach all intending pur chasers by an advertisement in which goods are described and prices given The merchant who presents the mos, attractive advertisements are general ly in the lead when it comes to SC curing trade. All newspaper readers do not read all the advertisements, bu if a man or woman has in mind ths purchase of an article, the newspa per advertisements are generally con suited before starting on a shopping trip down town
 In recent years the science of ad vertising has become 8 study, and II large city stores one, and often two or three men receive large salarieI for looking after the advertising of ths business. There is no greater science in business today than advertising and the man who attempts to do bust ness of any kind without its help vii be left far in the rear of those who seek the aid of newspaper advertising

 ENCOURAGEMENT.


 David B. Hill, who cannot free him. self from the idea that he is peculiarly fitted to occupy the presidential chair, finds much encouragement in the pres ent condition of democracy. At the recent Jefferson banquet in New York, he spoke as follows:
 "On this day devoted to honoring the memory of one who has been frequent ly styled the wisest and truest demo crat of his time, let us resolve to re- new our allegiance to the principles which he inculcated and the policies which he advocated. There are nu- merous indications of a revival of the popular confidence in democratic policies, state and national. A change of measures and of men seems to be imperatively demanded by the best in terests of our state and country. Our opponents have only succeeded in re- cent years by unfortunate divisions among ourselves. Let our faces now be toward the common enemy.

n YOU had asked the first ave people

thought of the lord OF the soil, you
would have had a different answer
from everone. One woman would have
said that a kinder and better man new

clared Lord Littimer to be as hard as

would have rated him a jolly good fell

A New WAY TO BREAK A WILL
While on the subject of breaking
wills, a matter now somewhat in the
ascendant here, that by which the
foreign woman's Request was diverted
from its object will be OF interest. A
wealthy woman by the name of Sylvia
lately died in Lisbon. Portugal, leav.
ing her entire property to = rooster.
She had been firm believer in the
transmigration OF souls, and imagined
that the spirit OF her deceased hus-
band had been reincarnated" into a
rooster. She had caused special
fowl house to be built for the bird, and
ordered her servants to pay especial
attention to their masters wants. She
was extremely jealous OF the hens, and
wherever on of them was found CO.
quoting with Pedro, as the cock was
called, its neck was wrung. The dis.
gust of the relatives, when the old
lady's will was read, was great, and a
lawsuit would have followed, if one OF
the heirs had not adopted the simple
expedient OF having the wealthy fowl
killed, when the natural heirs came
into direct succession.

The sounds are like those of bells, but
as there is 10 bell within miles of the

ticket, sounded the keynote of the

he had not spoken for years. The &C.
