Mexican LabOrers Improved To Work
Arizona Mines

The United States is making a hard
fight against the Importation of cou-
tract labor, and has inspectors station
ed along the frontier to keep out this
class of labor. That this law is not a
perfect success is evident from the way
chihuahua Mexicans are going over
the road, to the many construction
camps in Arizona alone. These hom-
bres claim to be hired in FL Paso, but
judging from the following, taken from
chihuahua paper. there is leak
somewhere in the inspection service
and contract labor is being imported
10y the car load. The article referred
to tells its own story and says:
The authorities of Juarez have for
mulated plan by which they hope to
protect Mexican laborers who 90 to
the United States on the representa-
tions of some smooth, enterprising
employment agent on the other side of
the line The plan is, when the train
comes into Juarez from the south to
have policemen there who Will gather
the incoming laborers into a bunch and
march them to the Jefatura. Here
they are duly registered, told of how
their brother laborers have been dis
appointed and left stranded, and then
advised not to 90 into the States to
work without signed contract as to
duration of work and pay, If it is for
short time, a guaranty of return trans
portatien must be made.
This plan is to place the responsible
ity, aud if the laborcr does not act up
on the advice, he cannot very well ask
the Mexican government for trans
portatIon back home as heretofore -

EncampmeHt Grounds For National
Guard

Col J. H. McClintock and Captain
George Alkire. regimental quartmas-
ter, returted to Phoenix this week
from a two days visit in Prescott and
vicinity. They went to spy out a
proper site for the regin.ental encamp
ment of the national guard, which will
begin On September 3 and last for
week or So The site chosen is on a
beautiful grassy slope in an oak brush
country near Point of Rocks, a few
miles from Prescott. 1t furnishes a
fine parade and drill ground and
diversified country for skirmish drilling.
The target range used by the troops at
Fort Whipple is also near by and will
be available for the guardsman. Water
will he supplied from the Del Rio pipe
line which passes near and which sup
plies the city of Prescott The In
dependent Telephone Co has a line
which crosses the camp ground and a
phone will be put in for the accom-
modation of the soldiers. 1t is under
stood the Sunset company will also put
in telephone Captain kinnason of
the 29th regular infantry has been de-
tailed by the war department as an

Experimenting With Hancock jig

For some months past the Arizona
Copper company has been experiment
ing with the Hancock jig. the only
one of the kind ever introduced in
America The results have been salts
factory beyond expectations, and the
company is now manufacturing an
other machine which will he placed in
the,first vanner room and is expected to
take the place of thirty three vanners
The two machines will then handle
700 tons of ores per day, at agreatly
reduced cost over the old methods
of treating the ore The Jig as now
constructed will occupy only as much
space as two of the vanners and can
be operated for q very small expense,
and seldom needs repairing Archie
Morrison, superintendent OF the con-
centrator, Is more than well pleased
with the machine which Is already in
use, but cannot tell until after the
new machine is in operation whether
it will successfully handle the ere that
is reground by the Huntingtons, but
he is quite confident that it will prove
a success 1t would seem that these
machines are destined to play an i'm
poruant part in reducing the cost of
miuing in the southwest. They are not
expensive, require no building to speak
of and at the same time they can be run
with a very small amount of water in
comparison with other machines which
handle the same amount OF ore in a
day. If the new machine works as
successfully on fine ground ore as the
other machine works on the coarse ore,
it is quite evident that two per cent
ore can be handled at a profit in this
district The machine has been in
spected by mining men from all parts of
Arizona and Mexico, and IL has proved
a wonder to them.

Story of Lost Mine And Of a
Mysterious Death

DIR. !. V. Wilson left this morning
the city Before leaving the Doctor
was seen by Citizen reporter and he
told the following strange and weird
story: 1t seems that last week Va
qui Indian told the Doctor and his
partner story to tine effect that he
had discovered rich gold mine within
nine miles of Tucson; that it was sup
posed that it had been worked years
ago by the priests at the old San
Navier mission This mine has been
looked for time and again and on sew
eral different occasions has been report
ed found, but all reports have been
mythical This Yaqui was known
among the Indians on the reservation
as being a rich Indian He always
had money and never worked any at
all He told Dr. Wilson and his part
ner that he got his money by selling
small quantities of ore from the mine
he had discovered.
The YaquI promised to take DIR.
Wilson and his PARTNER 20 the mine,
provided they would get the grun. can
dies and other necessaries and give him
what ore was piled up on the floor of
the mine. supposed to have been put
there years ago by the above mention
ed priests. They promised to comply
with the Indians request and were TO
leave last Tuesday for the mine, but
Monday night it was discovered that
the Indian was dead.
Other Indians on the reservation
claim that he died from moverindulgence
in booze, but there are strong suspi-
cions that he net with foul play. There
is belief among Americans that when
an Indian reveals to a white man any
thing that would show where any of
their treasures are buried or mines are,
that he is put to death by the other
Indians This Yaqui may have died
a natural death; again, he might not.
The whereabouts of the mine still re
mains a mystery to the white man. If
the Indians know where it is located
they don't tell, and evidently don't use
the gold, for an old legend says that
the mine is rich enough to supply a
city with wealth and then have some
left=Tucson Citizen.

was concerned. He is a strong Cooper
man for delegate. He says Cooper
will carry Santa Cruz against Smith,
that he will contest Cochise closely

the strongest and most available man
in the field who could be induced to
make the race and predicts at least
fifteen hundred plurality. On the

Its manifold uses, its great simplicity, its economical maintenance and its uniform durability and reliability under all conditions demand for it the first place among the engines of the day.

 army bean supper a, the Bank Hotel hall last Saturday night. While their friends expected a good time, they were royalty entertained by the blue coats.
 The G. A. k. members of RansOme post and Rough Riders were their especial guests of honor.
 The hall was splendidly decorated with the national colors, with several stands of arms scattered about the hall in prominent places to give a life life-like setting to the scene.
 Tables were spread from one end of the hall 70 the other with "Old glory" waving over fair forms and the hoary seers of wars of years passed. The hall was filled with people and the tables were filled with army rations.
 Dr. Brannen, or rather Captain Brannen, surgeon of the First regi- ment. was called upon to respond to a toast to Abraham Lincoln and did so in an eloquent manner, detailing the honest, homely life of the great man, from his lowly station in youth, his gradual raise by perseverance and brain power to the greatest position within the gift of the American people.
 His address was interesting and in- structive from beginning to end and wound up amidst applause of approv- all.
 Others were called upon and made short talks.
 The entertainment was also inter- spersed with enjoyable music, and at the conclusion of toasts Jack Butler favored the guests with one of his inimitable recitations, which was so good that the audience refused to let him of until he had given them an- other.
 This part of the entertainment wound up by squad drill with the new magazine rifles, which pleased the old veterans very much and ex- cited the admiration of Company I's friends.
 At the conclusion of the drill mess call was sounded and beans and beans and beans were served hot and de- licious to over 100 people,
 Just to settle things the evening was wound up with dance, which lasted until o'clock.
 Company may we'll feel proud of their achievement, and as the people become better and better acquainted with the organization the more respect and admiration they have for them and their work.
 The company is composed of gen. tlemanly lot of young fellows, who by their earnest efforts and hard work | are endeavoring to make Company I the best company in the regiment. and a company that Flagstaff should ap- preciate and be proud of. They need and are deserving of the assistance and encouragement of the people here.
 Slurring remarks, thoughtlessly spoken, and calling them ''tin sol diers" shows little esteem for the UDited States on the part of those making them, for the old veterans, now grizzly and bent, were once just what these boys are now.
