San Pedro Is Rampant.

The rainstorm yesterday in the San Pedro valley was the heaviest precipit- ation in the valley for years, and as consequence the San Pedro river went on a rampage and overtopped its banks, says the Benson Press dated Aug. 10. The damage done by the overfowing of the river is nominal thus far reported. At St. David the foot bridge was slightly damaged by the water flowing over it and drift wood catching against it. On the flat below town half dozen Mexican residences were flooded. The river has receded considerably this morning but is not yet fordable.
 The rain commenced Tuesday and there has been more or less precipitation almost daily since. A big storm up the valley Friday caused trouble on both the E. P. & s. w. and burro roads. the Bisbee train being delayed for day owing to washout between Naco Junction and Don Louis. The E. P. & $. w. trains are now arriving about on time
 From present indications we will get another storm this afternoon.

PLANS FOR THE
nth OF JULY
lewistown Celebration Of the Nation.
al Holiday Will be a Hummer
II Plans Succeed.
Business Men Will Soon be Given an
Opportunity of Contributing to
the Expenses.

Two weeks since the Business Mems
association determined that Lewis
town shall properly celebrate the 4th
of July and already the committee ap-
pointed for that purpose has outlined
a program which should offer induce
ments for a big attendance here on
the great national birthday.
No final arrangements are complet.
ed nor will they be until it is learned
just how much money will be contrib
uted by the business men, but so soon
as this is ettled the committee will
be able to close pending negotiations
and announce a program.
AS now planned. the day will open
with the customary salute. In the
morning will be delivered an address
by some prominent and able speaker
from the state, correspondence to
which end is now being carried on by
A. b. Lehman. secretary Of the com.
mittee.
After dinner there will be races and
general sports. and a ball game be
tween a picked nine from LewistowT
and a team from the mining camps
ii this can be arranged.
This will occupy the time until at
ter the supper hour.
In the early evening a vaudeville
performance is in sight to be followed
by a free dance. and within good view
of the pavilion will occur the most
magnificent display of fire works ever
seen in the Basin.
A grand stand for the accommoda
ton of all while the sports continue
and an immense pavilion for tho
vaudeville show and dance will b,
erected on the hill, the fireworks t
be set off to the southwark, far enough
to avoid any danger.
For the day the Lewistown brass
band will be engaged and the music
for the dance will also be furnished
by this organization, which is to I'm
dertake practicing this week.
To accomplish the plans liberal do
nations will be a positive essential. bu
as the business men have taken holt
of the project. determined to succeed
and not for four years has Lewistowr
observed the day. contributions SHOULD
not be difficult to obtain.
As far as heard from no plans hay,
been made for celebrations in any o
the nearby towns. and the disposition
appears to be to join heartily in Thu
celebration at Lewistown.
A special committee will look afte
accommodations for all visitors.

after hard work. managed to pull
through until within about a mile OF
the Geyser station, when the coach
had to be abandoned, and they came
in on foot. bringing the horses and
mail with them. He said it was some
thing like the old times that used to
come in December and January.

Lewistown is a nice little city.
It enjoys an unusual degree of pros.

but with all this, Lewistown is sorely
in need of a fool killer" and the
sooner he gets to work the better for
Lewistown. With all her advantages
this city has some ''canker sores" that
badly need d%isinfecting. Among the
most notable is the Judith Basin

and to back up our assertion we re-
produce the following taken from its

Under socialism you would work
about five hours each labor day, with
every Sunday and holiday to yourself,
Each year you would create wealth
for yourself to about the amount OF
$500. You would have plenty OF
time for Ease and education. The best

He ought to have cut off five hours Of
time for a days work and increased
the number of Sundays and holidays
and also increased the amount o.
wealth each year to be accumulated
