AN APPRECIATED COMPLIMENT

The SILVER BELT, of Globe, cele- brated its twenty fifth anniversary with it's issue of May 1, The BELT has al. ways been an honor to the territorial press. It was inaugurated by Judge Hackney, a strong, fearless, conscien- tious journalist of the old Pennsylva- mia school. The utterances of the BELT on matters of public concern under the old veteran were always straight goods. We all loved and admired him for his courage, honesty and uncompro- missing fight against the wrong as he saw it. The BELT was we'll planted by the good journalistic hero, and when he was called to his reward, the BELT passed under the control of his trained nephew, Editor Hamill, who has never swerved from the policy established by its founder, and which has made the BELTrespected by the entire press of Arizona. Brother Hamill, the BELT is all right. May you live to steer your craft for another quarter of a century and continue to make the BELT a credit to frontier journalism, is the wish of the Star.-Arizona Star.
 The above words of generous com mendation are fully appreciated. The Star has made a mistake as to the age of the SILVER BELT, however, the first number of which was published on May 2,' 1878. Consequently the BELT has entered upon it's twenty fifth year.

 i As citizen Mir. Colquhoun's exam. pie and influence were praiseworthy and helpful. He took an active inter. est in the affairs of the town, and the people of Clifton are the gathers by his counsel and assistance. It would be wei did mine managers generally emulate Mir. Colquhoun's example in this respect, and thereby promote the companie' interests and the welfare of the communities in which they are located,
 Mir, Oolquhoun continues his con. nection with the Arizona Copper com. pany as president, and has announced that he will visit Clifton from time to time for consultation with the new manager in the direction of the com pany's affairs.

FEAR TERRITORIES ADMISSION

FEAR TERRITORIES ADMISSION
 It appears, from special dispatch to the Chicago Record Herald, that fear of another insurrection among re- publican members of the house, in- duced Speaker Henderson to set day for the consideration of the omnibus statehood bill. There appears to be no doubt of the passage of the bill by the house, as forty republicans and all the democratic members are pledged to it's support.
 Again the senate will be appealed to. As in the case of the Cuban reciprocity bill the republican, leaders of the sen- ate will be asked to come to the relief of the republican leaders of the house. Instead of being requested to amend the omnibus statehood bill they will be asked to pigeon hole it.
 It is alleged that an investigation made in the territories discloses that should they be admitted as states the democrats would control in national and state elections. The fact that of the three delegates now in congress two are republicans is explained to be due to the fact that astute democratic poll. ticlans operated to secure their elec- tion, knowing that they, as republi- cans, could do more to advance state hood for the territories than democrats could

JAMES COLQUHOUN

The retirement of James Colquhoun from the position of general manager of the Arizona Copper company and dep ir'ure, with his family, for Scot land, is very generally regretted at Clifton, ss it is elsewhere in Arizona, among those acquainted with him.
 When Mir. Colquhoun assumed the management of the Arizona Copper company, almost eighteen years ago, its affairs were tagging and success ap- parently very doubtful. Itis nov one of the most successful mining enter.

. The Bisbee Review IS reminded by the resignation of Governor Murphy that few Arizona governors have ever served full four-year term, Wolhey was removed and Irwin and Murphy served out his term. Hughes was re- moved and Franklin served his unex- pited term. McCord Jet Murphy buuco him into the Spanish war, and now Murphy Is making way for successor before the expiration of his tenn. It is agreed that Colonel Brodie will sue oeed Murphy in the gubernatorial chair butnotwithstanding that now every body seems. ready to welcome Colonel BrOdie with enthusiastic satisfaction, it may be safely predicted that in less than a year efforts will be made by somebody to have him removed. Now watch, It's the Arizona way.

The declaration made by MT. James Colquhoun last week that he favored the removal of the county eeat of Gra- ham county to Clifton puts new com .plexton op the question, and wiildoubt. less cause some apprehension in the Gila valley. MT. Colqnhoun would probably not have made the statement If he did not believe that Clifton and MJrenci, together, have q sufficient number of votes to carry the propdsi- tion. Nevertheless, we do not expect to see the county seat of Graham moved to Clifton, because there is DO good reason why it should. be, and it would be very uEfair 10, the people of the valley and the western part of the county. The agitation will compel the valley interests to stand together, and the result will be, to strengthen Solo monville's hold on the county seat.

FANS IN HISTORY AND TRADITION
A WEAPON OFFENsE DEFENSE


There have appeared at different times
In the past year, articles concerning the
history or manufacture of fine porcelain,
old brasses, stems, the beautiful wood
carving owned by many prominent Mime
apolitans. and other antique curios, but
nothing in regard TO the fan, a subject so
full of sentiment. This tritiing, yet ar
tistic ornament not only reveals the Gus
toms, the dainty tastes and artistic ap-
probation of our ancestors, but is par
ticularly interesting as it reveals
the patient workmanship of the artist and
artisan Of the past.
Following tradition far into the past,
the origin Of the fan is found to be
chronicled in the legends of the Sanskrit
poems the tales of the Chinese and Japan
ese, and the paintings and sculpture Of the
Egyptians
~ The Sanskrit poem, Mahabharata, tells
us that King Nila's daughter had charge. Of
the sacred fire upon which depended the
glory and success of her father. She
famed the fire, which refused to burn be-
cause of the consuming love which 1t had
for the beautiful maiden. Only by being
famed by her sweet breath could it live.
Lang sin. a Chinese maiden, when pres
ent at Feast of Lanterns, overcome by
heat, removed her mask, daring thing
to do. She, then, waved it to and fro
near her face. and this caprice, almost i'm
mediately initiated by the other beauties
of the court originated the screen fan.
Equally interesting is the story of the
Borrowing widow of Atsumori Japanese
lady. who hiding in the temple of Mieido,
cured an abbot, who was devoured with
o fever, by tanning him with a folding pa
per fan.
Miniatures in the British Museum, the
Bibliothegue Rationale of Paris, and the
Louvre show that fans were made orig
inally from feathers Some are simply a
bunch of peacock feathers in a handle,
while others are more elaborate in feather
mosaic.
Vying in beauty with the fans made
from the resplendent colored plumage OF
the birds, are the not less ingenious and
beautiful fans of different colored grasses
and reeds wrought in the shape of leaves.
Later, fans were made of such precious
materials as ivory, tortoise shell or san
DIAL wood, and finally Of paper and other
fabrics. The leading artists, poets and

Of the claims of the Minneapolis young
women. Four miles is the distance at
present to the postoffice and general store,

its limited store of provisions. A NUM-
Der of Minneapolis people have taken land
in the same vicinity including Miss
Marion Gibbs, Miss Emma Nuremberg,
Miss eBtty shillock and Mrs. T. Luckow,
who spent a few weeks last summer on
their claims. q
Miss Shaver, Miss Cream and Mrs.
Thomas have been busy getting their
clothes ready. One cannot wear ordinary
costumes in the woods with any comfort
and they have devised suit of blue jeans
with boomers; coming just below the
knee, short skirt and blouse. The high
boots are made after the fashion of lum-
!berman's boots, to special order. When
the young women reach Black Duck they
will stop at the little hotel long enough to
Ndoff their travelling gowns and put on the
blue jeans and make themselves ready
for the thirty mile ride that lies between
them and their land. While they are at
work they will wear mems overalls, for
skirts will sadly interfere with the labors
of lumberman, farmer and we'll digger.
Miss Shaver aud Miss Cream have de-
cided that their first labor will be with q
two-man saw with which they will cut a
path between their two claims, SO that
they can be neighborly. The wells will

ment insists on the wells and they are not
a matter of choice. All three Of the wom-
en- will participate in the digging, working
at them one at time. Fortunately they
will only have to go down about six feet
to find excellent water, but hole six
feet deep is quite an undertaking for
girl who has never handled shovel.
When, the wells have been dug and the
diggers have recovered from the unusual
exercise, they will transform themselves
into farmers. This also is insisted on by
the government, and the regulations read
that certain amount of land must be
planted to crops to hold claim. Miss
Shaver will plant potatoes, corn and
onions, and, though she has had no .ex-
perience in raising vegetables, she has
hopes that she will have supply for win

do not expect to remain more than a
month this spring, and will return to the
city the first Of June and then go back to
the woods in August to remain until Feb
ruary, when they will go to Duluth and
prove up their claims.
They must dig their we'll and plant their
crops this spring whether they will or no,
and when that is done they can go fish
ing or hunting. The river that runs close
by is full of fish, and the woods abound in
game. None OF the young women has had
any experience hunting, but the men IN
the neighborhood have offered to teach
them, and they will doubtless prove apt
pupils. KS lsl<s

They will not only take up claims but
