TUCSON NEWS
Charles Montgomery Says Stiles and
 Alvord Can Be Found.

Tucson, Ariz., January 13.-(Special Correspondence to The Republican)- The following resolutions have been adopted by the Tucson Chamber of Commerce in regard to union with New Mexico:
 To the Senate and House of Represen- tatives of the United states.
 The Tucson Chamber of Commerce representing the business of the county of Pima and said city of Tucson, most earnestly protest against the passage of any bill uniting Arizona and New Mexico into one state. for the reasons most potent and obvious.
 First: The two territories separated by President Lincoln in 1863 on ac- count of unwieldly size, are much too large to unite in one state in 1904.
 The union would make a state much too large for practical and economic government--the distance across be- ing 655 miles. and the distance between extreme points being 750 miles.
 Second: The two territories have nothing in common more than mere geographic location. They have been separated for forty years. They have different governments. different codes, different laws, and different histories. The mountains divide them. New Mex icO's water shed empties into the Gulf of Mexico; AriZona's into the Gulf of California. Each territory has differ ent debts, which under one govern ment would be difficult of equitable adjustment. if indeed. they could ever be adjusted at all Each has it's owa capitol-one at Santa Fe, the other at Phoenix, each costing q large sum Of money. Each has its different univer- sities. asylums. penjtenturies. school systems. eleemosvnary institutions. In Arizona, English is the universal language. while the Spanish is the common language of New Mexico.
 Third: New Mexico has the larger population and Arizona justly fears that in such union her people would be dominated in fiscal and all other civic questions to their detriment.
 The people of Arizona with marked unanimity oppose such union. Such an act would impose on them a gov ernment against their consent and condition more intolerable than the vassalage under which they have so long unwillingly labored.
 For these. among a hundred other reasons this Chamber of Commerce, NoicinS as 1t belieVeS the universal sen timent of the people of Arizona, most respectfully pray that no bill shall pass congress uniting these territories into a single state.
 Each territory is entitled to state hood. but their union would be more disastrous to the. inhabitants of each territory than the present condition.
 Resolved that copy of this petition be sent to the president of the senate the speaker of the house. and two cop ies to Hon. J. F. Wilson, delegate from Arizona, with the request that he pres ent the same to the committee on the territories in senate and house and use

PUSHING CONSTRUCTION.
Old Dominion Plant Rapidly Assuming
 ShaPe-sis Copper Output.

The progress of the construction work at the, Otd Dominion, to one who has not visited the property for several weeks, is very marked. says the Glove Silver Belt. Several steel buildings are now far enough advanced to make good Showings Of the sev- eral plants the smelter ana converter building easily takes precedence. It is now about completed, with the eXcep- tion of the shed in front of the con- Yerters, and as a type Of the modern steel structure Is not surpassed any where in the southwest.
 The three smelter jackets each A lS0 inches have been erected. but are not quite complete. The excava- tiOns- for the converter foundations have been finished and work on the foundations was to begin today.
 The great electric crane from the Niles, Bement. Pond company, with a capacity of forty tons and having an auxiliary hoist capable of lifting ten tons weight was given it's first test yesterday and it's performance was entirely satisfactory. The crane was completely under the control of the operator and moved a load of steel rails weighing 40 tons with ease and all the power used was. furnished by the small dynamo at the new shaft that lights the works. The generator to operate the crane will be in the power house at tue smelter. There will also be two electric locomotives one to haul slag and the other to haul charge cars. TAa=s engines have been shipped.
 Three engines are being installed at the smelter power house, two to generate air for the furnaces and one air for tbe cOnVerters. While we were tbere half of fly wheel weigh iag seventeen tons was being moved into place, and the mammoth blower of 10000 cubic feet per minute and weigh ing fourteen tons was the next big casting to hc moved into f.~cc.

 At the mine the steel boiler house is completed and the power house about two-thirGs finished. The new Nord- burg COrliss hoist. a duplicate of the hoist in use at the old shaft has been erected. Later the old hoist will be installed at the neN shaft.

A PROMISING COPPER PROPERTY.

The Arizona Colorado Copper Belt and Gold Mining company, whose property is situated three miles north of Globe, now has its big double com partment shaft down to a considerable depth, and the ore in the bottom of the shaft is solid and of a smelting grade. running high in copper and carrying well in gold. The ore in the new shaft is of much higher grade than that which came out of the company's small shaft which was sunk 15S feet deep. and this small shaft sufficiently proved up the property hence the sinking of the big working shaft by the company on its property. which is on the great copper belt and promises to become one of the big mines of the district.-GlCbe Silver Belt.

of the very few albino deer ever seen in the mountains of the west. Old hunters tell of seeing them, usually separate from the main herds, at var ioUs times during the early days; but they were too shy to be approached near enough to be shot. The deer killed in the Canyon mountains was with four other deer when found and had not this been true the hunter would not have taken it for a deer. Its white coat made it far more conspiciOus than the remainder of the herd and 1t is per haps for this reason that the albiDo deer are summed by their mates.

One night, as he was looking about

The youth went to the mans wig

there he ate and Dragged until he fell
asleep by the fire. Then the man
threw a kind of priclSly bark over the
youth, which made him sleep very
sound.
When he had done this he took the
youths clothes and put on him a suit
of rags of his own. Likewise he took

Thus equipped with all the young
mans belonging, the stranger went
himself as the boy whom the chiefs
daughters had gone to visit when he
lived with his uncle in the forests.
This can never be that boy grown

But he turned out to be a bad hun

so that the old chief was angry and

So the youth commanded the little

And often his wife used to sing to
him the song he had first heard her
sing in the forest many years
ago:

So he fitted the youth out with fine
bow and arrows and gave him suit
of splendid clothes. Then he gave him
a tobacco pouch which would stand up
when its owner told 1t to do so, and
two little birds which would come and
light his pipe when he commanded
them.
Also he placed a stuffed swan on the
youths head, saying, when you run
in a circle, this swan will come to life.
1t is d magic swan, and when 1t is
alive all sorts of game will come to

Thus equipped the youth set out on

not, but go swiftly on your way to the
chiefs village and choose one of his
daughters for a wife"
Now, while the boy and his uncle
had lived very quietly together, the
boy had often thought of the beauti-
full maidens who had cleaned up the
wigwam, and so he ran joyously in
the direction of the chiefs village. But

1t was a bigger island than any they
had seen-bigger than the Island of
Tickling and the Island of Children

They all jumped out and looked
around. The first thing they saw
was enough to show Sinbad that his
troubles were not over yet. 1t was a
wagon, with a horse sitting on the
seat and two yellow men pushing it
backward. There was a queer look to
the town, because it had no streets,
and the houses all had the back door
facing the front gate. Each house

old man. There now, tell me-"
And the boy told what he had heard.
THAT is the song" said the uncle.
1.-THE chief of distant village sends
his daughters to visit US" Then the
old man made the wigwam look as
dirty as he could, throwing ashes
about it, and told the boy to put on
some old rags which he gave him and
to sit down in the ashes.
And you must not look at the
young women" said his uncle. "They
come to visit me, not you. Hold down
your head while they are here"
So two beautiful maidens came sing
ing to the wigwam, and when they
saw how dirty 1t was they set about
cleaning it up. When they had the
place all clean, they cooked some food
and shared it with the boy and his
father.

old man as he smoked his pipe, and
the two girls, laughing and singing,
said good-by and went back to their
father, the chief.

Berlin'S immense maritime trade has
encouraged the revival of an old idea
to make Berlin a great seaport in re-
ality, by cutting a mighty canal to it
from the North Sea.
Such a project was conceived about
twenty years ago, but at that time
everybody treated it as the idle specu-
lation of dreamer. Now, however, it
is being considered seriously.
| A big canal has been planned al
ready to connect Berlin with Stettin.
Stettin is not on the sea itself. al
!, though it is situated on a waterway
communicating with it.
The new plan is to cut a canal
straight north across the fiat country
into the Baltic Sea. This canal is to
be deep enough to permit the largest
ships afloat to enter at any tide and
steam straight to Berlin from the
ocean. 1t is to be wide enough to per-
NIT any two vessels to pass at ordi-
nary speed.
1t is not generally known, even
among well-informed persons, that
Berlin has been sufficiently nautical
for many years to support a large and
rich yacht club which has in its fleet
a number of big and fast vessels.
1t is also fact that the fishing in
dustry of this inland capital is by no

Berlin, in fact so near the capital that
it may almost be termed a suburb of
the city, is settlement of prosperous
people dwelling in handsome houses,
whose sources of income are almost
entirely in fishing and rafting.
These queer suburbanites rarely
travel anywhere except by boat in the
summer and on skates In the winter.
