Arizona weekly journal-miner., 1903-01-14

The Journal-Miner recently men tioned the case of an Oshkosh man being fined $500 for stealing three kisses from his pretty house servant
 The man was Miner H. Ballou, g wealthy mill owner, and thinking the price of kisses, as fixed by the judge, was excessive, he appealed his case to the circuit court, the judge of which scaled the price down to $500, or an even S100 for each kiss. It is evident, even at this price that kisses in Oshkosh come high "by gosh. !"
 The Western Missouri Court of Alp peals has just decided that a mule is a treacherous and vicious animal, and that so we'll known is the fact that if a workman is injured because of these traits, the employer cannot plead ignorance of the mules nature as a defense. The court affirmed judgment for an employe who had been injured. This will strike the average man as being a one sided view of the mule The animals reputa- tion for viciousness and general GUS sedness, it would seem, is so we'll known, that an employe, when he undertakes a job of handling the ami nal, cannot be ignorant of the fact that he does so at the peril of his life, and in accepting the job, prac- tically valves all responsibility of the employer. Outside of Missouri the courts would probably so hold.
 The Missouri Pacific Railroad com pany has issued an order to the effect that no relative of an official shall be employed in position subordinate to that official on the Missouri Pacific and Iron Mountain system. The or der has resulted in a number of changes at every division point on the lines in southeast Kansas, many men holding subordinate positions hay ing been transferred to superinten- dents to whom they are not related. The motive of the order is to place all employees on an equal basis in the matter of advancement. That is an order which is easy to get around. When Superintendent Smiths $ brOthpr-in-law on SuDerintendent Jones division thinks it is time to be moved up a notch, all that will be necessary is for Jones to tell Smith he will make the promotion if Smith in turn, marks up his cousin on Smiths division. Just as easy for superinten dents to swap courtesies as it would be for them to promote their own relatives.

THE PROPOSED COMBINE

The New Mexican says: The state of New Mexico, consisting of what is New Mexico and Arizona at pres ent, would certainly be a great con- monwealth, great not only in extent of territory but also in resources. If the name of New Mexico could be re- tained for the commonwealth and Santa Fe as the capital, if three rep resentatives in congress were given it and if it were divided into two Uni ted States districts, the plan to admit New Mexico and Arizona might be ac- ceptable to the people. The appoint ment of three representatives in Con- gress, in addition to two United States senators is certainly very al turing. With five votes in the ma; tional congress and the kind of men that would be sent to cast them, the new state would cut wide swath and its claims and necessities would re- ceive due consideration at the hands of the national law making body. At any rate the proposition is one we'll worth considering. It is reported that President Roosevelt would be in favor of it and the sentiment of sena- tors and representatives is setting strongly in that direction. The ac- tion of the senate upon the statehood bill during the coming week will throw much light upon the subject. Until then the people of New Mexico will watch and pray.

SOME SUGGESTIONS.

Writing to the Denver Republican, under date of January 1, L. P. Abell, whoever he may be, offers some sug- gestion: as to the arrangement of the proposed new states. The writer says:
 "In line with your editorial ''Ari- zona and New Mexico United," in your issue of January 1, and referring to the writer's letters published | March 17. 1902. on the matter of the admission of these two territories and | Oklahoma, permit me to communicate | to all concerned, through the columns of the most enterprising newspaper in the Rocky mountain district, the fol | lowing additional suggestions, which, as will be readily seen, will give the west. in addition to Oklahoma. two other new states with their two United | States senators from each, and at the same time secure better distribution of territory, from a geographical stand point, among the states on the Pacific slope.
 '"This can be accomplished, first, ] by anneXing to Utah, as outlined in | ltlleT dDONe m60llOueu. ludI part Ol Arizona lying north of the Colorado river: second. incorporating with the present territory of New Mexico that | portion of Arizona lying east of the one hundred and twelfth meridian and south of the Colorado river, and erecting the combined area into the new state of "Montezuma" or "'Tu- suyan. the capital remaining at San ta Fe, and, thirdly, by uniting the remaining portion of Arizona west of the one hundred and twelfth meri- dian and south of the Colorado river ) to those portions of California and | Nevada lying south of the thirty sixth parallel of latitude. and erecting this combined area into the new state of Arizona, with its capital at Los | Angeles. "
 While it is scarcely worth speculat- ing upon, as such a combination is not likely to happen, it might be of interest to know that the proposed division on the one hundred and twelfth parallel would strike the northern boundary east of the Grand canyon, run through Chalendar. pass about twenty-fiv miles east of Pres colt and strike the southern boundary west of Nogales.

ITEMS FROM JEROME NEWS. !

The appointment of Joe Campbell as Sheriff Roberts chief field deputy. was we'll received in Jerome. MT Campbell proved himself to be a rel publican war horse during the last election. He certainly earned recog- milton.
 Frank Nevins has been appointed deputy sheriff for Jerome by Sheriff Joe Roberts. MT. Nevins is an exper- fenced peace officer and will make an excellent official. He was a strong supporter of Roberts during the cam paign and is thus given his reward.
 Thieves have for some time been visiting the camp of Chris Harry housen while he was absent and car ried off tools, grub, etc. He returned home from a visit to his Ash Creek mines Thursday and found that they had made him another visit. They had maliciously broken doors down and otherwise damaged his property and had filled three sacks with grub. tools, etc, preparatory to moving the same. The return of Mir Harry housen cut the theives out for the time being.
 The coming legislature should re- wise the game law so far as it con- cerns the open season for the killing of deer. The season of thirty days is too short. It should be made sixty days, and open thirty days earlier than now. This is the sentiment of all, or nearly all the sportsmen in this part of Arizona. An effort will be made to have the legislature make this change.

London has new license law which enables either husband or wife to se- cure separation in the case of habit ual drunkenness, and allows the po- lice to arrest an inebriate anywhere except in a private house, whether dirorderly or not. After conviction, drunkards are blacklisted for the space of three years. If they attempt to obtaIn drink during that period they are liable to a fine, while the publican supplying them is fined $50 for the first offense and s10O for the second otfense. Imprisonment is provided for drunkenness of a person in charge of child under seven years of age. The first notable case under this new act has been presented in a London court when Sir Charles Allen Lawson, the Anglo-Indian newspaper editor and writer, applied for sum mons against Lady Lawson, whom he described as habitual drunkard.

 The Los Angeles Times is opposing the reelection of Senator Perkins. It wrote up a lengthy article recently on the subject, giving a number of reasons as they appeared to it why Senator Perkins should be retired to private life and new man elected as senator. On receipt of the paper at Sacramento, the republican mem bers called caucus and nominated Perkins with only one dissenting vote. This is equivalent to election as the republicans have a majority in the legislature.
 "Reminiscences of the early days of Arizona, are always interesting to old timers, who are still left, as a remind CT of the stirring times and thrilling experiences through which they passed. They are equally interesting to the later day citizens as they i'm part historical information of the territory, and show how Arizona was redeemed from the domination of say ages. through terrible baptism of blood. Realizing these facts, the Journal Miner has prevailed on Mrs. T. W. Otis to permit her Pioneer "Reminiscences, prepared for the Arizona Day" meeting of the Mon day club, to be published and they will be found in this issue and will be found not only extremely inter esting but instructive as we'll.

ARIZONA AND IRRIGATION.

It is time that Arizona should make its proposals to the government for an early recognition of its undeniable right to preference in the points chosen for the establishment of sys- tens of irrigation. The preliminaries looking to the reclamation of a con siderable percentage of the arid lands of the country are practically under way in the form of surveys and level ing. and when these are far enough advanced so as to admit of conclu- sions as to the sections best adapted and approximations as to the cost of construction of retaining reservoirs. the government may be depended upon to act with all possible speed in putting the adductions to practical test. As territory, Arizona cannot hope to wield anything like the same influence in government circles as tue states having large representations in congress. Therefore. it behooves all those having the future welfare of the territory at heart to give this mat ter the merited consideration that it deserves. So much depends upon the

A CAUSTIC EDITORIAL.

Henri Watterson paid his New Years respects to the "4OO" in a caustic editorial in the Louisville Courier Journal, in which he said:
 ''Why, look you, gentlemen, we shall have on our hands next summer not only his Belgian nastiness, but mayhap the Crown Princess and heI Frenchman, and Brother Leopold and his inamorata, whoever she may be. Boris was not a circumstance to these.

 to that question, written by a woman who is certainly competent to speak as to the remarkable strength-giving power of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
 Mrs. Alex Kjer, of Gordonville, Cape Girardeau Co.,, Mo, writes: rWhen I look at my little boy feel it my duty to write to you. Perhaps some one will see my testimony and be led to use your 'Favorite Prescription and be blessed in the same way. This is my fifth child and the only one who lived the others having died from lack of nourishment- so the doctor said. I was not sickly in any way and this time I just thought would try your Prescription I took nine bottles, and to my surprise 1t carried me through and gave us as fine a little boy as ever was.

MIXED WIRELESS TELEGRAMs

MIXED WIRE LESS TELEGRAMS
 The test of the Marconi wireless biography during the recent maneu- vers of the British fleet in the Medi- terranean sea was not highly satisfac- tory. That portion of the fleet, sup posed to be the enemy had little trouble in confusing the messages and making them wholly unintelligible. For example, when the admiral sent an order to one of his ships, the enemy kept the air full of telegraphic messages which mingled with the official dispatches and gave the re- suit of a hopeless jungle of words which had neither sense nor meaning. It is recounted, too, that the enemy had sense of humor and kept hurl- ing at the admiral certain remarks on his personal appearance, as we'll as miscellaneous comments on his alleged lack of nautical knowledge, much to the destruction of his peace of mind. It is stated by British electrical re- view that some of the messages taken down from the air by the receiving ship read something like this:

GROWING BUSINESS
Rapid Strides Which Have Been Made in Telephone and EIec-
 tric Light Business.
More COmmOdiOus Quarters Se- cured and Increased Facilities for Both Branches Pro-
 Vided.

F. l.. Wright, of the Prescott Elec- tric company continues to make i'm provements for the benefit and con- venience of the patrons of that com pany. He has taken a lease on the room now occupied by Kelly and Stephens on Cortez street and will use it for the exhibition of gas and electric supplies and machinery. MT. Wright will also shortly change the system of calling subscribers so that when the receiver is taken from the instrument, central will be warned of the fact that it is wanted, without the subscriber being compelled to ring up. He will also put in an other new switch board soon.
 The growth of the telephone busi- ness in Prescott has been most re- markable. When the system was first inaugurated as a sort of side issue to the electric lighting business, it was thought fifty point switch would be ample to accommodate the needs of the town. It was only a very short time until this was found to be in- adequate and another fifty point board was added. Within a short space of time this was also full, and subscribers have been kept growing apace in numbers with the growth of the town, which has been very rapid during the past two years until the present time when a four hundred point switch board is found to be too small to meet the demand on the system.
 The growth of the electric lighting business has been in about the same proportion as that of the telephone as new machinery of increased capacity has been found necessary a number of times to be added and recently a dynamo of 4,000 16-candle power lights, and 300 horse power engine has been ordered and is expected to arrive soon. This machinery has been completed and is now in the testing room of the manufacturers, and as soon as satisfactorily tested will be shipped. It was ordered last spring and was due to arrive here about Sep tember 1, but has been delayed on ac- count of the numerous orders in the factory.
 With these improvements the tele- phone and electric light systems of Prescott will be second to none in the country. y.-Journal- Miner.
