Successful ATiZOuianS.

Thomas d. Bennett returned yester.
day morning from a business visit to
Washington in the interest of the
Common wealth Mining and Milling
company. Having disposed of that he
went to New York where he spent
some time. The one thing that par
ticulary impressed Mr.. Bennett was
the prosperity of the former AriZo-
mans whom he met wherever he hap
pend to be. While at Washington he
saw Mr.. Charles @. Randolph, the
former owner of The Republican who
is wallowing in clo:er. He also saw
Colonel w. j. Cotton there. Colonel
Cotton has been married again and he
is making more money than he knows
what to do with. He Is representing
the interests of George Mitchell in the
east. At New York he saw w. @.
Greene, r. Allyn Lewis, Colonel Har
low and George Hoadley. Every body
knows about the prosperity of Mr..
Creme and almost every body in Ari-
zona has heard about the prosperity
of the others. Colonel Harlow's bust
ness in New York is to look after the
affairs of the Yaqui River Mining
com pany il which he and MIR. Greene
are the principal figures. Colonel
Harlow's office, Mr.. Bennett says, is
one of the most elegant he has ever
seen. The carpet is knee deep and all
other fixtures and furniture are in
consonance with it. George Hoadley
who has Just returned from trip to
Europe is in receipt of a salary of
$50, 900 and that is not all. There
are perquisites which in themselves
would mako big salary.
General Lewis is engaged in the
of all kinds of money and is
very wealthy man. Alto
gether MIR. Bennett believes there is
in the air of Arizona which
fits man for successful struggly in
the strenuous life of the east.-Repu-

Nosaies Commercially Prompt.

1t is gratifying to note that the Off
cials of Santa Cruz county were
prompt to act on the suggestion that
precautions be taken against the intro
duction of the bubonic plague from
Mexico. Physicians were sent from
Nogales to Guaymas, and a complete
investigation of the situation there was
made. 1t was ascertained that a
quarantine is being maintained against
Mazatlan, the infected port, and this
of course, greatly lninimizes the dan
ger that the plague may enter the
United States by way of Guaymas.
Most important of all, the people of
Nogales and Santa Cruz county have
shown themselves alert in protecting
the interests of Arizona, and so long
as this spirit is manifested there need
be no apprehension as to danger from
the plague. 1t will not be permitted to
gain foothold in Nogales, or else
where on Arizona soil.
If the reports from Mazatlan are to
be relied upon, the Mexican author
tiles are meeting with success in con-
fiuing the disease to the area first
affected. The deaths have been
numerous, but there have been few
new cases within the past few days

The Arizona and Colorado.

The Los Angeles Times has the
following regarding the Colorado IL
Arizona railroad, which is contin-
alton of the Cananea, Yaqui River &
Pacific, now operating between Naco
and Cananea:
'Epes Randolf, general manager of
the Pacific Electric Railway company,
with Geo. H. Pillsbury, chief engineer,
and Edgar buehring of this city, VIM.
G. Green of Bisbse and Eugene S. Ives
of Yuma, have organized the Arizona
and Colorado railroad company, subs
cribing an initial fund of 100000 to
the stock of tie railroad. The route
outlined is as follows: Beginning at
a point at or near the town of Naco,
CocAise county, Arizona, running
thence in a northeasterly direction to
point of intersection of the San
Francisco river, with the boundry
line between Arizona and New Mex
leo, with spurs or connecting lines
from some convenient point or points
at or near the towns of Bisbee, Doug
las, Turquoise, Solomonville, Clifton,
and Morencia, all of said lines and
spurs being in the counties of Cochise
and Graham, in the territory of Ari-
zona being a distance of 200 miles,

iii Jolly Gone.

Hi Jolly, the man who introduced
camels into Arizona for freight-carry-
ing purposes, died at Quartzside, Yuma
county, on Tuesday, the 10Th instant,
aged over 20 years. 1t was in 1872
that Hi Jolly landed from a steam
boat at the foot of Main street with
his heard of camels, about SO, and
proceeded to drive them up through
the center of town. Jollys camels
had been brought by him all the way
from Arabia The reputation of the
Ara bia camels for endurance, strength
and the length of time they could go
without water, had imbued jolly with
the idea that they would soon bring
him fortune here in freighting across
the desert country; but he was de
stined to disappointment. 1t turned
out that the camel required more
food than the horse, and to pack
almost as much food as freight was
improbable. To sun it up, the
Arab IN camel as freight carrier in
Arizona was impracticable, and Hi
Jolly's hopes of fortune in this direc-
ton fell to the ground.-Post

ArIzona's Schools System.

The biennial report of Superintend-
ent of Public Instruction n G Layton
was filed with the governor the other
day. 1t is one of the most complete
reports of that department ever issued.
Judge Layton has been in Office but
few months, nevertheless he shows a
remarkable familiarity with the edu-
cational system throughout the terri
tory, says the International
The Public in general should be in
terested in the facts contained in this
report. 1t gives one an accurate idea
of what is being done in the territory
to educate the young. The report
shows that the number of children in
school whose ages are between six and
twenty years are 25,249 in 1902;
against %, 435 1901. There are 275
school districts, as compared with 261
last year. The whole number of
schools, 442, against 42S last year.
Teachers employed this year. 457, 1l8
of whom are male and 339 female
teachers. The average salary for the
male teacher is $S5,51, an increased
of S4.6S, while the average salary for
the female teachers is $7175, as COM
pared with S64 81 last year.
1t goes on to say: The amount paid
for teachers salaries for the year end
ing June 3, 1902, was S1O,334.2S in
excess of that paid for the same pur-
pose during the preceding year For
libraries the very small amoant of
$357,55 was expended during the last
year of the period. L can not too
urge the necessity in my
opinion of library of carefully selected
books in each school in the territory.
A few dollars each year laid aside for
this purpose would be of lasting benefit
if properly expended.
According to the report Maricopa
county has 80 schools, while Yavapai
has 81 and Graham "a. In point of
number of children, Maricopa leads
with 1879, with Graham a good

On Saturday last the bee men of this

ford, and shipped it to firm in Buffa-

600 pounds of honey put up in five
gallon cans. The price received for
this honey was cents per pound

fourths of the honey loaded in the car
was the product of Thomas Blake and

HITCH IN CANAL TREATY.

It is possible that the failure to come
to an agreement with the government
Of Colombia on the Panama canal
treaty may lead the president to send a
message to congress on this subject. 1t
would seem that Colombia is inspired
by too much greed. One of her latest
moves is to suggest that the question of
the amount Of rental be submitted to
The Hague tribunal; that, instead of
wasting further time in arguing the
matter Of an annuity, the remainder of
the treaty. to which both nations have
thru their representatives signified
their assent, be signed, and, since the
terms OF the new treaty provide that the
annuity shall begin ten years after the
ratification Of the treaty, that eight
years after the treaty goes into effect
the question OF annuity be referred to
The Hague for final adjustment, the
two nations Of course binding them
selves to accept the decision Of that
tribunal on the subject.
