The young mans candidacy grew
finely. The more people got to know
him, the better they liked him. He
was q plain, unaffected citizen, with a
friendly word for all men. When the
election came, instead Of one or two
hundred majority, he had 2,1O0. He
entered the senate the youngest
member, and at once proved himself
capable and upright. He served four
years, being reelected by very large
majority In 1896 Mr.. Warner stood
steadfastly for the people while in the
senate. He was heartily with Gov.
Pingree in his policy OF reform, and he
was not for a moment lined upr with
corporate interests
Mr Warner was candidate for
secretary Of state in 1898 and was de-
feated by }. ). Stearns, whose doodle
was more effective then than his pro-
carnations for reform have been
since. Mr.. Warner was nominated

Bles made live hits out Of five times
at bat, one OF them double.
Thirteen Hurley boys famed and
six locals failed TO connect with the
ball.
Crystal Falls had two errors chalked
against then. Hurley had but three
so the game was not one OF fumbles
by any means.
A bunch OF about 100 ronters march
ed over from Ironwood TO cheer for
Crystal Falls and had lots OF fun.
The total attendance was nearly 800.
The locals speak in the highest
terms OF the Hurley management.
They got line treatment from the um-
pire and were treated well about town.
They spent great deal OF their time
at Ironwood and everyone over there
was with them.
Crystal Falls got total OF eighteen
hits off Sullivan and OF that number
one was a triple, and four doubles,
Hurley got four singles.
Dinsmore had lots Of fun playing
horse after the game was cinched.
Instead Of running up the score he in
yariably tried to steal and at one time
had baseman chasing him out into
the left field.
Joe Michaels has signed with Crys-
tai Falls and will play the balance OF
the season In a local uniform.
Croze. the new catcher with whom
Manager Corcoran closed deal for
the balance of the season, didn't ar

son, Ball going back 10 his place az

The locals got bad dose Of stage
fright in the game with the Union
Giants yesterday and were skinned by
a score of tol. Hoover was the only
man that played the game. lie took
two chances in the outtield and made
three hits. Micheals also played al
good game. The work Of the others
was coarse and can he attributed |
wholly to an off day which every
team has occasionally A large att
tendance was in evidence and a good |
time had.

Los Angeles, California, is making
his first trip through Arizona, He
is an old emulator of Franklin,
and is at home on the tripod. He,
like many other Californians, and
others, had an idea that Arizona
was inhabited mostly by horned
toads and tarantulas, cactus and
catclaw, but he is fast getting next.
He finds that we live in houses,
have fixed homes, and that we have
schools and churches and printing
Offices as good as can be found in
California towns of similar sizes.

Let Arizona Wake Up

Colonist rates will soon be in
force again from the East on the
Santa Fe. The fare of last year,
$50, from Mississippi river points
will prevail, and the time will be
the same, beginning on March 1st,
and ending April Both. During
last years excursion period, about
5000 people were brought from the
East to the West and most of them
remained. This year ought to
bring as many, and Arizona can
get her share If she goes after them
properly. This being the exposi-
tion year, a great many people will
be on the go, and will be in a very
receptive mood for taking in infor-
nation about new countries. Ev-
cry section of the Territory ought
to get out literature descript-
i've Of it's principal industries, and
it should be distributed literally,

A Potential Destroyer

Beware of the fatal wine cup.
This week has shown the people of
this little burg the end it can bring
a man to. You can take a little
now, and little more tomorrow
and not notice it, but it will pay
him who drinks to guard we'll his
appetite. Snakes in mans boots
ought to be bad enough, but when
a man gets whole electric light
plant in his shoes, it is a little the
worst ever. But, perhaps, one form
is as bad as the other, so don't, on
our advice, try either.

The Eureka Nine

Superintendent Gilmore is in
Jerome from the Eureka mine,
where he reports splendid progress
in development Mr.. Gilmore
came in for supplies, and a burro
train will leave for the mine today.
He brought in the good news OF
having cut the ore chimney they
have been drifting for, and therein
finding the precious metals in
abundance. The shoot had just
been cut before Mr.. Gilmore left
the mine, so that he was unable to
tell the extent of the new ore body,
but says that the indications are
that the body is very large and
rich one. Assay samples which he
brought in certainly indicate that
the ore is rich. The cutting OF
this new body in the Eureka prop
ertv, raises the value of that mine
hundreds of per cent, demonstrate
ing, as it does, that the property
contains an immense body of ore of
a grade that will place the Eureka

WHY Is THIS THUS p?
In Reality There Is No
Reason
FOR ONE PREFERRING MEXICO
To Arizona as Field for Invest
ment in the Mining Industry.
ArizonanS Must Be United

Why is Mexico SO enticing to
American capital? There have
been thousands of dollars invested
in Mexican mining propositions
during the last few years which
should have come, as the outcome
of a natural trend of affairs, to Arl-
zona. A great many Arizona cap
italists are interested in Mexican
properties, as well as other people.
The great success of the Cananea
mine. and a few others, has made
every one turn their heads that
way. There are several reasons
for this. The first and most potent
is that people can not resist the
mirage-like appearance of some
thing that is Just little further on.
People like to hear about something
a great way off. And after they
have seen something at home and
something abroad, they always look
back to the great things they saw
in some other country. And, in OF
der to come back home and fill up
Others on the wonders of what they
have seen abroad, they become in
terested in what they have seen in
Mexico. There are good properties
in Mexico, but there are many
just as good, and some better, lying
untouched in Arizona, today; than
great many of uur American
friends have been persuaded to
tackle in Mexico.
Then, there is another reason
which some have given as their ex-
cuse for investing in Mexico. Our
slight labor troubles last year were
very much exaggerated by some
and the fact of any disturbance at
all caused timid investors to seek
Mexican fields, for the reason that
it is said that there are no labor
troubles in Mexico. They have
found, in some instances, that there
are labor troubles of different
class in Mexico That is, they have
found it difficult to obtain high
class miners in sufficient number
to work their mines on a large
scale.
In reality, there is no reason why
any one should prefer Mexico, as &
field for mining investment, to Ari
zona. OF course, old, deserted
mines have a fascination for one
and towering hills inspire awe, bu1
Arizona has them both, as we'll az
the tens of thousands of untouched
lodges which will yet make mil
ionaires. And if the people of Ar
iona would pull together to hell
boo up the chief industry of th'
Great Southwest, much of the Mex

cease. Stand together, boys, anc

Slips Away to Become a
Benedict
BRIDEAN EASTERN GOvERNESS
Who Came Out to Take Charge of
the Education of the Daughter
of }. B. Tappan of Signal

Dan McGlone, formerly an old
bachelor of the Bill Williams fork
country, has reformed, Several
weeks ago the News-Herald had an
extended account of a governess
coming out from the East to take
charge of Mr. Tappan's daughters
education. We stated that the lady
had been infatuated with our eli
mate, on a former trip.
1t is not our custom to take back
anything which we say, unless we
feel so disposed, and in this in
stance we feel so disposed, for we
believe we have been imposed upon.
The lady was infatuated, all right.
And it may have been that she
had become infatuated with the
desert climate. But it now APP
pears that she also became infatu-
ted with a form of missionary
work. We do not know that she
belonged to any society for the
prevention of the single blessedness
farce, which so many Arizonans
are suffering from, but we do know
that she has put a stop to this sort
of thing in Dan McGlone's case.
Dan has quit the banks of the
placid Bill Williams fork, has
taken up his abode under the tall
pines of Prescott, and has sent out
announcements, customary in all
civilized countries, calling the at
tention of his friends to the fact
that he is cat Home"
Dan came through here recent
ly, went up to Prescott, and there
got the knot tied. He kept awfully
mum about the matter, and all his
friends here are feeling half Of
Tended at him. And we under
stand that Mr.. Tappan is going to
bring suit against him for dam
ages for stealing his governess. But
in filing his answer, tits stated that
Dan will take refuge behind the
fact that this is Leap Year. Now,
we do not want any misunder-
standing about this matter. We
have merely beard these things
limited at. We may be wrong. If
we are, this brief recital can do no
wrong; and, if we are totally right,
it may do some good. 1t may
cause other well-to-do gentlemen
who have daughters to educate and
friends who are single, to send for
governesses from the East.
The only really authenticated
thing about this matter is that all
of Dams host of friends are wish
ing him and his bride one uninter-
rupted flow of unmitigated bliss
from now to the end of their days,
and praying that they may be long
in the land.
The event took place on the Oath
instant, when Dan McGlone and
