SENATORIAL AMENDMENT

During the coming session of Con-
gress the Kearns Senatorial amendment
proposing change in the United States
mining law, will be brought up for dis
cussion. 1t proposes that the law shall
be so changed that mining locations
shall be rectangular in form, not to
exceed 1500xl500 feet, and shall convey
"the right OF possession and enjoyment
Of all surface included in the lines of
the location, and all veins, lodes, lodges
and mineral deposits throughout their
entire depth, which lie within such sur
face lines extended downward vertical
ly." That is, there would be no follow
ing of the vein on the dip, no ''extra-
lateral rights"
ii it should become law, and the
consensus of opinion seems to be that it
should, expensive litigation would be
lessened and discouraged and prospec-
tor and the miner would be helped to a
very considerable extent.--American
Magazine and Mining Investment.
The above may be all right from
the point of view of our esteemed
contemporary, but, in this section

NEW BRAIN WRACKER

Phoenix papers have now settled
the question Of AIMS age. The
question was: Mary is a years
old. Mary is twice as old as Ann
was when Mary was as old as Ann
is now. How old is Amp" The
puzzlers have at last agreed that
Ann is eighteen years old.
Now, there is another question
which is bothering a gentleman of
our town. He says that the rca-
son he is bachelor is, that, years
ago, he fell in love with o winsome
widow, (and all widows are win
some), and his brother fell in love
with the widows pretty daughter,
and both were going to get mar
ried. But it finally occurred to
them while they were on their way
to the county seat to get the license
that if they should both be blessed
with children, that the children
would have a difficult time of tell
ing what relation they were to
each other. SO each, after trying
to get the other to 60 ahead and
get married any way, and the other
one would forego the pleasure of
matrimony, and each one wanting
to be after you," they finally con-
cluded to wait till some one would
figure out what kin the children of
the one would have been to the
children of the other, before they
got married. They are still old
bachelors and anxious for some
one to solve the mystery. VIII
not some one lend helping hand?

other sections, such q law as is pro-
posed by the kearns bill, would
not meet with very high favor, for
the reason that most Of the veins
here lie very fiat, and hence the
chance for great deal more litiga-
tion than what we now have. 1t
is recognized as II fact, however,
that no eX-po2t facto law can be
passed, hence the man who has u
claim today would not be interfered
with by the law OF tomorrow. Ar
iona mining men will do we'll to
look into the proposed change and
insist on the bill being fair. There
may be many changes needed in
the mining law, and some of them
may be proposed by the Kcarns
bill, but mining men should not
get hoodwinked by other clauses in
the bill.

WE ARE in receipt of q copy OF
the Youths Recorder, published at

rying a good line of advertising.
The subscription price is three dol

Our esteemed friend, the Jour
nal-Miner, says that it would never
have been aware of q nice compli-
ment paid that wonderful sheet by
"Snips" if it had not been for the
Press Clipping Bureau. And we
might add that it would rarely
have anything in it's columns if it
were not for the clipping business.
And if the Miner man does not
quit calling the editor of this sheet
by that euphonious name "Snips," ,"
it is more than likely that the
present owner of that newsy publ
cation will issue a challenge to the
Miner corporosity.

rival dam sites, the Tonto and the
San Carlos projects. He says that

troversy. He says that editorial

in attracting attention and build

terprising community. No power
on earth is so strong to build up a

WORLDS FAIR EXHIBIT

a. 4. Johns, who has been given
charge OF the details of the arrange
mcnts Of the mineral exhibits for
the st. Louis Exposition. will soon
visit this section Of the country
and Will get this to moving soon.
Every one having any mining in
terest should see that our inter
ests are well represented at the big
fair, and all should lend helping
hand to the officers in charge of the
getting up Of the exhibit.
The friendly interest that has
been expressed to the News Herald
BY various mining men insures
us that this support is forthcom-
ing. Let the Arizona exhibit be
an eye-opener to the world. Spare
no effort to make it what it should
be-one of the leading exhibits OF
the United States. We have the
resources and we know it, and we
may sometimes lose sight of the
importance Of letting the world
know it. We must not forget that
this is q chance to let people OF
every nation on the earth, as well
as of every station of life, see what
we have and know what it's worth
and possibilities are.
This is q chance to convince the
East of our own country that we
are entitled to everything that any
other American community is en-
titled to. Every interest should
be we'll displayed. Let not our
mines overshadow our other exhib-
its to the extent Of crowding them
out. No other State or Territory
can show q wider field for human
endeavor than Arizona, and few
can show a higher degree of loyal
American civilization. Let facts
be submitted to a candid world
once more in the interest of our
liberty as well as in the interest of
our material advancement.

PRESIDENT RIPLEY and vice
presidents Morton and Kendrick,

a tour of Arizona. The new rail
road enterprises that the Santa Fe
company are constructing in the
Territory are attractingthe attention
OF the railroad world, and the offic-
ers of the company are looking
out to see what further extensions
may be profitably made in this
virgin country. We trust that
they will take a peep at the new
line proposed west OF this section

SATURDAY. NOVEMBER
YOU MUST KEEP POSTED

Every great producing mine was
once mere prospect, hut this does
not prove that every prospect will
some day be great producing
mine. 1t does prove that some Of
the good prospects of today will be
the great producers of tomorrow.
There are good properties under
careful management which are sell
ing stock TO carry on the work,
and there are companies in charge
of worthless properties who are
selling stock, but not to carry on
any work on the properties. Some
would be investors in mining stocks
have considerable money and some
have only few dollars. Both
are continuously getting fooled.
They are investing their money in
the worthless stock of dishonest
promoters. II they would make it
Il point to subscribe for the mining
papers OF the country in which
they wish TO buy mining stocks,
and post themselves by diligent in
quiry, carried on as Systematically
as they would inquire into any
other business proposition, then
they would stand better show Of
making something out of their in
vestment shan they would if they
take the first mans word that
comes along, get out their wad and
invest in stock that has no coniec-
ture rs to what it really represents.
There are great many people
who do not complain if they lose
few dollars on some ones misrep-
resentations, but there are, perhaps,
more who feel very badly over such
a loss. And while they arc feeling
badly they are telling their friends
that mining is another name for
robbery. These are two kinds Of
mistaken individuals. The one
VINO does not complain may be
caught another time by some other
fake concern, and the other may
lose a good opportunity because of
his deep-seated prejudice. Neither
mistake should be made. 1t should
be the purpose of all honest people
to gain o competence in some hon
orable and upright way The
mining business affords q very
pleasing avenue to competence if
you can strike it right. But any
one who invests money in q pros
pect should not be surprised if the
returns are slow and if the prospect
should in the end turn out bad.
Not every prospect can make a
mine. The investor has a right
to demand that his money should
be rightly used in the development
of q property with a reasonable
show OF becoming a mine, and be-
longing to the party selling the
stock. II these things are actually
done then the investor has had
run for his money and should not
be disappointed.

ANENT CHARITY

We know of some people who dc
favors and brag about it for years
to come. Charity is q cardina
virtue. The combined teachings
Of precept, press and pulpit, have
been for years that charity is a
duty not to be regarded lightly.
But the charity Of some people is
like money spent for advertising.
because it is hoped that the giver
will receive much more in return
than is spent in this way. This
kind of charity is the same kin to
real charity, that what is popular
ly known as crocodile tears are
to sympathy.
1t makes q we'll bred person to
receive gifts in the proper spirit.
Some will make such ado about a
trivial favor that you would nat
urally think they would be your
times end friends. They seem to
be so afraid OF being considered
ungrateful. But while this is mani
testify true, it is a fact that the
greatest artis in the giving of a
gift properly-that is, the doing of
some favor of note in the proper
spirit.
The news-herald., 1903-11-07

THE Prescott Courier says that
the papers which are now bowling
the loudest against Stoddard were
loudest in the defense of Akers. In
other words, if we take it for
granted that Akcrs was as big a
CRATER as Stoddard is, because
some papers upheld one thief, the
Courier must needs uphold another
CRATER thief. Perhaps there are
those on the Courier force who
would not like to see Stoddard
pinched, for that might mean that
they were to be pinched, too.

We accept in the kindliest spirit
the fatherly chiding OF Patriarch
" eedln, realizing that though he
may be chasing the shadows of the
imaginary evils Of Maxwell, New
ell aud Fowler, he vet may be sane
on some OF the probable errors of
our adolescent condition. And in
spite Of the blunt refusal OF our ac-
knowledged friendly advice, we
again beg of lIr Weedin not to en-
danger the final success OF the
proposition of the construction OF
the San Carlos reservoir, in which,
Mr.. Wcedin, to the contrary, not
withstanding, every progressive
citizen of the Territory has a per
sonal interest. 1t is only the mar
row and selfish who think that
the prosperity of their own imme-
diate vicinity is all that is neccs-
sarv to their happiness and pros
perity. \ patriotic citizen. even if
he bean editor, will rejoice when he
sees any enterprise OF magnitude
succeed in any section of the Ter
ritory. 1t is only the evil-minded
CRATER that will accuse those who
happen 10 be situated nearest the
enterprise that is succeeding Of
being grafters. 1t merel Y shows
/ that he had IL mind a graft and
that he has lost it. Had Mr.. Weedin
have been citizen OF Phoenix he
would now be applaudihg the men
he is reviling. 1t may be possible
that the Departmer discovered Mr.
Weedin's graft in the proposed San
Carlos project, OF SO much general
merit, and for that reason chose to
pass it up till the chance for his
grating should pass by.
Standing on the outside of this
controversy, in spite of the fact
that we are not so old as to be
childishly one sided, we have
watched with a great deal of pleas
ure the progress of this great irri-
CATION enterprise. We see in it a
great help for all sections of the
! Territory. 1t may not help the
COW man Of Northern Arizona as
much as it will help the farmer of
the Salt River valley to have the
Tonto dam built, but it will help
him some by lowering the Terrific
rial tax levy on account of the in
creased wealth of that community.
1t will help him by affording him
ample pasture at low rates when his
local ranges shall fail; it will help
him making the price of hay and
grain little cheaper.
The effects of the National irri
CATION movement is we'll under
stood by younger and cooler heads
than those of the wrathy Florence
editor. When the next fight shall
! be made for the San Carlos dam.
Mr.. Weedin will find that we are
with him, providing we do not
catch him working up a graft, and
even then we might help him, for
he may need the graft, and the
general good may outweigh the lit
. tie graft.
We thank Bother Weedin for
his information on the duties of an
editor and for his admonition to
learn. 1t has ever been our motto
to take good advice and do as we
please afterward, and if we choose,
to discuss the San Carlos project,
or the Tonto project, or the deteri.
Grafton OF journalism in certain
quarters OF the Territory, we shall
60 after it undismayed, and if we
! fall into the error of discussino anv
subject too much, we shall uncom-
plainingly suffer the consequences
Of such sin against journalism.

Slayer of Taylor to be Tried
 in October.
Lawyers Pleaded That 1t Was Inn possible to Have Important Wit nesses For Defendant Pres ent-State Admitted
 Showing.

The case against Byron Trammell, of- fee deputy to the United States Marshal for the Middle District Of Alabama charged with the murder of Charles D.. Taylor of Roanoke, was continued for the July term of the City Court of Montgom- cry yesterday by Judge William H. Thomas, on motion of counsel for the de- fense. ,.
 The case was called yesterday morning at Il o'clock. The large room of the Montgomery City Court was filled to It's utmost capacity. Spectators and wit nesses occupied every bit of space and waited patiently throughout tedious legal argument which followed the motion for continuance.
 One hundred and fourteen witnesses had been subpoenaed. Of these. forty were for the prosecution and seventy-four were in behalf of Trammell.
 When Bailiff Whiting called the roll of the witnesses, only thirty-six of the defendants witnesses responded. A con- ference ot considerable length was then held by counsel for the defense. They announced that they were not ready for trial and moved that the case be con- tinued until the next term of court. They argued that the witnesses who were ab- sent were material in every way to the welfare of the case of their client. Sev- eral of them, they said, were eye-wit- nesses to the homicide. Others were character witnesses. both as to the char acter of Trammell as a peaceful and law abiding citizen and Taylor as turbu- lent. blood-thrsty and dangerous man. Other witnesses who were absent, they said, would swear to threats made by
