 Banker F. w. Perkins of our city was made happy last Wednesday by the arrival of his daughter and mother-in law from their old home in Missouri. MT. Perkins has rented the J. H. Lind residence and his daughter will keep house for them until the arrival of Mrs. Perkins
 A boom occurred in matrimonial circles last week. Probate Judge Douglass issued the following mar riage licenses during the week: H. Anderson and Margaret H. Wal lace; Vincent V. Merino and Jessie Pattee; William Wallace and Ethel Anderson; Garrett w. Marks and Anna L. Selvey; Francisco Lomali and Virginia Romero; Jas. o. Jones and Alice L. Cushman, all the par ties being residents of Flagstaff. As the railroad lands in this section are rapidly being recon veyed to the government, as well as many of the homesteads, settlers should be careful of section lines while cutting wood for fuel and know that they are cutting on lands where they have right to, other wise they are liable for timber tres pass, the penalty for which is heavy. Free use of timber permits are is- sued for the individual use of tim Der, and in case of doubt it would be better to see the forest super visor.

MAY BE SO
How the Great Colorado Canyon
 Was Built

When God in His all wise coun- cil first thought of the creation of the earth, He called together his three prime ministers that con- stantly surrounded His throne. Their names were Justice, Truth and Mercy. And it is said He thus addressed them: Shall we build the earth and make man?" And Justice answered and said: 70, God, make the earth and let it be peopled;;" and Truth answered and said, 70, God, make man and He will pollute Thy sanctuary" But Mercy, as she dropped on her knees, said: 70, God, make the earth and man and 1 will both guard and guide their course until the end of time and through all eternity"
 And God caused the earth to be built and the waters to flow; then with one mighty stroke He caused the great boiling hot molten earth to open and great waters of all the world flowed through and took it's course westward and found an out let in the great Pacific ocean.
 When the earth was torn asunder the chasm was miles deep, but ages have passed away and filled the great gulch for two hundred miles with peaks. castles, monuments of stone; it has taken millions of cen turies to fill it's bed up; for since then the river has flowed down, down. and left sight for artist and writer. So let it flow; let millions come and go; the great mystery of the Colorado Canyon will never be explained, for God, the Great Ruler of the universe, handles the earth and it's plane cts in His own way and leaves man to wonder and think.

CONDITIONS ON RANGES
Flagstaff Sheep Raiser Says Rain
 Must Come Quickly

H. E. Campbell, a large sheep raiser near Flagstaff, Arizona, and w. L. Powers, assistant cashier of the Arizona Central bank at that Arizona town, were in the city yesterday en route to Kansas City with a consignment of over 3O,0O0 head of sheep for the east ern market.
 When asked whether, or not the district in which he was interested had been affected to any extent by the drouth, which has been preva- lent during the past season in the southwest, Mir Campbell said: "In the vicinity of Flagstaff sheep have not suffered to the extent they have in the country in the more south ern portion of the territory. While we have not had an exceptionally good year, we have been fortunate in not losing any large amount of stock.
 "Our grass has been disappear ing very fast for the past few weeks and it is apparent that if rain does not fall in a short time next sea sons lamb crop will be decidedly short. These conditions can all be remedied by rain if it is only possi ble to secure that natural requisite to the stockman's success, and from present weather conditions 1 be- lieve that before long we will re- ceive that long looked for series of showers.
 "The sheep I am at present talk ing to Kansas City, over 3O,O00 head, are in excellent condition for the market, but the balance cannot be as good if water cannot be had to improve the grazing land. I have contract to supply another lot next month, so you see, like the Iowa farmer. am praying for rain.
 "Fellow herders tell me that they have lost large numbers of sheep in southern Arizona, and from all ac- counts I believe that sheepmen can figure on short lamb crop, and the high prices that then must fol- low for next season."-Albuquer- que Journal, June IT.

Had to Kill Brother.

Rock Fails, H., June 19.-To save the life of his mother and self, Edward Hardesty was compelled to shoot to death his younger brother, George, who, while in a drunken frenzy, threatened to kill both.
 Ed. Grose left yesterday for Will jams, where he will attend the mar riage of his brother this evening. He expects to return soon. It now looks like the brother at Williams would soon have an opportunity of returning the compliment, as Ed ward is casting sheep's eyes at a certain charming young lady em- ployed in one of our large stores.- Prescott Herald, June 10.

The NEWS this week is in receipt of the following letter, with a re- quest for its publication:
 WILLIAMS, Ariz., June g, 'O9.
 EDITOR WILLIAMS NEws-In your last issue appeared letter signed by Mary Nellis, in which she wanted to know if the officers were afraid of grown men. Like the NEWS editor, 1 will state that I am afraid of no one, and the larger and tougher they are the better it suits me. Regarding the fning of the boys two weeks ago, will say also that in the performance of my duty 1 had to ignore the strong talk put up by Mayor Nellis to save the boys arrest, as all look alike to me when guilty of an offense. The fight witnessed by Mrs. Nellis, and to which she referred, occurred a year ago last March 1 was not present and as no complaints were made, took no action in the matter. Had Mrs. Nellis made her kick then the parties would have been arrested and fined. AS she stated in her letter that she witnessed the fight, l shall, even now, procure a war rant for the men and request Mrs. Nellis to appear in court against them, It is impossible for an officer to be everywhere at once, and I de- sire to offer here a reward of $500 to Mrs. Nellis for each case she calls to my attention where l have overlooked people who should be placed under arrest. If there was any law by which older people, parents especially, could be made to set better examples to children 1 should be glad to enforce it.
 Yours truly,
 JAS. KENNEDY,
 Town Marshal.

Verde. and I saw immediately that it was the same property l had abandoned IS years before.
 "It's funny how fellow will overlook good things sometimes" unused Mr. Sivyer, as his mind went back to the Arizona wilder ness which has since produced millions for it's owner.
 LOCATED MoLLIE GIBSON.
 MT. Sivyer located eighty acres of ground in the Aspen mining dis trict in Colorado in 1880. which he afterwa rds sold to the Mollie Gib- son Mining company. He remained in Aspen long enough to see tons of native silver hoisted from the ground. which made the Mollie Gibson the most famous silver mine in the world.
 Richard Bowles, Byron Shear, an attorney of Aspen, and Henry Gil lespie owned piece of property across the Roaring Fork from the Smuggler and other producers. and in 1888 they organized the Mollie Gibson Mining company. MT. Siv- yer. had previously located his eighty acres, and when the silver craze came on in 1891 his property was purchased.
 The history of the Mellie Gibson mine is without parallel in the mining world. An immense body of native silver was discovered and the entire west went wild. The stock of the company which orig inally sold for few cents per share jumped to SIP per share. J. J. Hagerman, Bowles and others made millions out of their holdings, and in a very few years the company distributed nearly $5.00O,O00 in dividends to their stockholders.
 Then the silver panic came con and the earnings of the mine were cut practically in half. The bodies of the native silver did not hold out and few years later the ia nous Mollie Gibson ore chute 'faulted." It was only question of short time before the bonanza chute would be relocated, the stock holders thought, and they prepared for long wait Hundreds of thou sands of dollars were spent in the search for the lost ore chute, and to this day there are people in Aspen who believe that it will be found, though the officers have long since abandoned the ch.-Los Angeles Times.

Big Rush Coming.

-
 The Santa Fe is rushing men and material to the Grand Canyon road where they will double their yard capacity in thirty days, to be in shape to handle the horde of Knights Templar which will take in the sights at the Canyon in August.
 With the anticipated enlarge ment of the yard capacity and the completion of the water tank at Anita, they will be in excellent shape to handle the heavy traffic.
 Twenty-three special trains have already been reported for August and there are more to follow Winslow Mail.
 The Santa Fe Railroad company is hiring all the non-union tele- graph operators and agents it can secure, and will place them along the system from Chicago to Cali fornia, and north and south in ex- pectation of a strike among that class of employes.-Ex.
 "The boilermakers and black smiths on the entire Santa Fe sys- tenn will be out on a strike inside of thirty days, if the present ma chinists' strike is not settled before that time," is the somewhat start ling statement with which J. D. Buckalew, who is managing the machinist strike, is credited by the San Bernardinu Sun.
 It is said that the Mckinley County Republican is about to change hands, the present owner H. A. Pease, having sold to a Cali fornia man, who will put some capital into the plant and give Gallup a much improved paper MT. Pease expects to leave for Wis consin, his former home, after the transfer is made.

It's the Truth

The Arizona Star, commenting on the suspension of the Daily Journal Miner at Prescott, has this to say, which will be agreed to by all who are engaged in the work of publishing daily newspapers in Arizona:
 No matter what the managers of the daily papers of Arizona may say to the contrary, there is not one in Arizona that is paying 6 per cent per annum on its investment, clear of all expenses.
 There is not one that pays the proprietors half the salary they could receive for any other legiti- mate business for the same effort and labor. There is no work so strenuous, none so little appreciated as the toll of the editor, and those associated with them. They are the most poorly paid men of any pro- fession, for the services rendered the public.
 "Hence the cause of so many changes in the proprietorship of daily newspapers in Arizona. Hence the cause of so many untimely deaths in the newspaper field in Arizona.
 "Twelve daily journals and ten weekly papers have been laid to rest in Tucson since the first issue of the Star twenty six years ago in this city.

The Citizens Candidate.

In his speech Of acceptance yesterday
at Albany Judge HERRIcK declared his
programme. II is as simple as SUNRISE
and as logical as geometry.
II elected, Judge HERRIcK will smash
the Grocery; and he will do his best, in
the sight of GoD and mankind, to give
to the people Of this State the honest
administration their public affairs SO
grievously need.
Judge HEBRIcK happens to be the
Democratic candidate for Governor, but
he Is more than that He Ii the Citizens
candidate. He is the Reform candidate.
Under existing conditions Republicans
may split their ballots and vote for
him for Governor, for FRANCIS BURTON
HARRISON for Lieutenant Governor, and
we should now add, for JOHN CUNNREN
for Attorney General, with as little hesi-
tation as they would feel in departing
from strict party lines in municipal
campaign for the redemption Of ring
ridden town.
