Will Probably Not be lung.

A few people. perhaps. have been wondering why there was not hang ing function in the Yuma county jail yard on June 3rd. As a matter of fact the absorbing questions of government irrigation and how to head off and cap ture the elusive almighty dollar has held the boards so exclusively that most people have doubtless forgotten that such legal tragedy was to be en- acted. It is safe to assume, however, that one Martin Ubillos, life convict did not fail to congratulate himaoif and with satisfaction note the fact that Friday, .lutie 3rd, slipped by, leaving him still doing time at the old stand and in full possession of all his faculties intact. About year ago Martin kill ed fellow convict, one SiEzon Aldrete. He was convicted at the April term Of court and sentenced to be hung June 5, l99i. His attorneys, Henry Wupper- ;nan and Frank Baxter, took an appeal, which acted as stay of execution until passed upon hy the supreme court, which grants an extended lease of life to L billos at least until nextJanuary. The attorneys have filed 8 brief in be- half Of their client in which consider able portion of the testimony of the lower court trial is submitted tending to establish the point thst the killing of Aldrete was not premeditated, but resulted from duel, Aldrete himself being the challenger. Tie men had a fslli29 out, and subsequently, Guarreled often. Aidrete repeatedly challenged Ubfllos to fight. On the fatal morning he told Ubilios that one of them must die and invited him to come into his cell and they would fight it out. The challenge was accepted and che con- ricts fought with knives to the death, Through the persistent efforts of his lawyers Ubillos may yet secure a com mutation of sentence, which could not be less than life inprisonmens. He is life-termef nOw, so that the only way 50 inlfict another such sentence would be to have it extended to the life be- yond and commission His Majesty the devil to execute ft, provided 1t IS with in his jurisdiction.

Both Sides Ready.

The Los Angeles Examiner of recent date has the following in regard to the government irrigation projects on the Colorado river:
 ''TEe success of tire great govern ment project at Yuma, involving the expenditure of 5000 900 for the con- structioT of irrigation works is assured by the action of the Water Users Assoz citation there. Readiness of farmers to contract with the government for water shows that the movement started by the Salt River Valley Water Users Association at Phoenix is popular. It is valuable precedent
 This statement was secured yeSter- day from J. E. Lippincott after decla- rati0n by government irrigation com mission of which he is a member that 1t had nothing to give out for publica- sion. The commission spent yesterday here ia the compilation of data on the big Yurua project which it has been assigned to investigate. In it's report it will make certain recommend ations for national Legislation affecting the distribution of the waters of the Celo- rado.
 The citizens of the valley and many others are in favor of government own- ership of all the irrigation facilities in the valley. Tn order to accom- pfish this the government may buy the interest which the California Development Company has acquired in that region by reason of Improvements.
 Between two-thirds and three fourths of the water users in the valley of the Colorado river favor securing water snpply from the government, said J. E. Lippincott, supervising engineer of the geological survey. The govern ment commission now here will return to Washington on Friday, after it has completed the collection of data"

Another Receiver Appointed.

Pauly, who was receiver fer so long, having resigned. It was reported some months ago that litigation over this property had reached final end ing, but it seems that was not true.

The Flag of Victory.

The thirteen Stars and Stripes was triumphant at Saratoga in l77i, also in the War of 1872, Mexican War. Civil War and Spanish War. With such d record our flag has been truly called ''The Flag of Victory" On account of the unequalled record of cures made by the famous HOstetter's Stomach BitterS it has also been called "Thc leader of its class" In fact it is 50 safe and re- liable that prominent physicians all over the country never hesitate in rec ommending it to their most delicate patients, knowing from past experience that if cure is possible the Bitters will effect it. A single bottle is all that is accessory to convince you of it's value in cases of indigestion, dyspepsia, con- stipation, biliousness or malaria. Be sure to try it.

Leslie Williams Drowned.

Uriah l.. Williams, young man living near SomertOn, was accidentally drowned in a hole of water within a hundred yards of Somerton hall Sunday night or early Monday morning. It is learned that Mr. Williams start ed horseback to go to neigh bor's Ia Mr. Riley), with whom he had urgent business, Sunday night. Monday morning his horse was found hitched not far from what is known as, the bottom less hole'-a Washout caused by the overflow from the old American canal. The water in the hole is at least 30 feet deep, and as the immediate surround ing land is submerged, the exact location of the cavity is not easl- ly discernible, especially after dark. In order to reach the Riley house the young man had to wade in water some distance. The supposition is that he lost his bearings and Waded into this deep pool. A search was insti- tuted for the body, which was found yesterday. Mr. Williams owned a farm near Somerton, and his father, mother and sev- eral brothers and sisters live in the same neighborhood. He was a young man we'll liked and re- spected by all who knew him.

Excess Holding.

It is wei! understood that under the reclamation law no land owner can re- ceive water to irrigate more than l60 acres. Of course there are several tracts in this district larger than that, owned by one individual, and 1t being necessary for all Of such land to bear its prOportionate share of expense in the construction of the government works, the attorneys for the reclama- ton service and Water Users Ass0cia- ticn have determined upon d special form Gf contract to be signed by such owners. The terms of this contract are that the land owner will. preceding the date when government water is ready to be delivered. sell his excess hold ings to some party or parties qualified to take a water right: failing to do this the association shall have the power to sell such excess and deliver the pro cecds 10 the owner.

LA FORTUNA MINING COMPANY SUED
 FOR $500, 900.
The Plaintiffs are Henry Biume and
 J. E. Barney.

The initial proceeding in a legal ac- tion of large proportions against the Ia Fortuna Mining Company was in- stituted Monday in the filing of com plaint by Thomas F. Wilson of Tucson, who as an attorney represents the plaintiffs to the suit, Henry Dlune and James E. Barney.
 It is alleged in the complaint that the Fortuna Company has wrongfully extracted l65,0 tons of ore from the adjoining claims of plaintiffs, the value of which is placed at $20 per ton, mak- ing total of $500, 900. There is no explanation as to the manner in which this ore has been wrongfully extracted. We know nothing of the merits of this action: but it has been reported that the plaintiffs have sunk shaft adiOin- ing the defendants mine, and recently struck the main ledge of the Fortuna which dips downward and extends into their property from the end line of the Fortuna Company's ground. The ore sued for. it is claimed was taken by the Fortuna Company from this ex- tension, which the plaintiffs claim as their property.
 The La Fortuna mine has for several years been conceded one of the very best gold properties in the territory. The principal owner is Charles D. Lane. a millionaire and prominent politician of San Francisco. The mine is in Yuma county and about 2S miles south east of this city. The ore is very high grade and the output of the mine has reached into the millions: although it has been currently reported for the past two or three years that the main ledge had been lost and that the only work being done was in search for the lost lode. This story has been gener- ally accepted as true, as only a small force has been employed and operations conducted with all possible economy.
 The outcome Of this litigation will be awaited with the keenest interest.
 The lCcal attorney for the Fortuna Company is Peter T. Robertson.

Oiled Streets.

The Southern Pacific Company has furnished very good ob- ject lesson in the improved ap- pearance and condition of Madi- son avenue by the jndicions use of oil, which has done away with the dust and made of it a hard, smooth street. This mode of treatment is said to be not very expensive, and it would not be d bad idea for the city council to consider the proposition of oil ing Main and three or four of the much travelled cross streets. In Tucson some of the thorough fares are being treated with oil furnished by the local chamber of commerce, under the super vision of an oil expert furnished by the Southern Pacific railroad company.

What Would be Accomplished?

If it were possible to elect a Demo-
cratic governor what would be &C
complished? 1t is a computation of
loss rather than of profit. In Robert
G. Dunn we have a man experienced
in State affairs. Every Legislative
act championed by him, and enacted
into law, has been in the interest of
the people of Minnesota, saving the
State hundreds of thousands of dol
lars; and others, which he would have
enacted, are the most important meas
ures which have been proposed in
years in this State. He stands for an
equitable system of taxation, the pay
ment by railroad corporations of their
just proportion of taxes, the amend
ment of the primary election law, the
abolition of railroad passes which
have always been source of corrup-
ton, the redemption of the northern
swamp lands, the enforcement of the

law preventing all merging of rail-
roads and many other reforms needed
in the State. In electing John A..
johnson the people elect a man who
has had little experience in public
life, and one whose short legislative
record is barren of results. He has
been publicly challenged to state
where in a single instance he has been
instrumental in securing the passage
of q law which has in any way been
for the good of the State. He has
been an obstructionist rather than a
promoter of the States good. In
electing him you turn over the State
government to the Democratic party,
placing in his hands authority to ap-
point the heads of all State depart
ments, and, in case of death, United
Sites senators and district court
judges. With a Democrat in the gov
ernor's chair the enacting power of a
Republican legislature is greatly

errors province to veto any measure
proposed by that body, an authority
which would be freely exercised in the
event the measure proposed failed to
conform to Democratic views. No
one will believe for a moment that the
Democratic party of this State would
rest on it's laurels after having cap
tured the executive. Using it as the
entering wedge it would endeavor to
capture the legislature two years
hence. and all the authority which
such victory would imply-the elec-
ton of United States seniors and the
manipulation of the entire State ma
chinery in the interest of the Demo-
cratic party. And by the election of
a Democratic governor at this time,
and in presidential year: the Repub-
ican party would be weakened in it's

tage which the Minnesota Democrats
are striving to gain, and while the
possibility of such a calamity is far re-
moved Republicans cannot afford to
