The Arizona Giant Copper Company mines situated ten miles southeast oi Ehrenberg, Yuma County, were sold yesterday under execution to satisfy a judgment rendered at the December term of the district court in favor of Thomas BakeIy and Melville R. Gay. The property was bid in by Mir, Gay for the amount of judgment and costs.
 The Yuma ''hot air'correspondent o1 the LosAngeles Times last week sent in a statement regarding the effect of the high water that was highly colored- and as to the damage to the canal, en- tirely false. Mr. Ludy says that his canal was not injured in the least, and the same can be saidof the Farmers canal.

Government Cannot Buy it.

Word has come from Washington that there is no law authorizing the government to purchase the Imperial canal system, and it will therefore re- main under private ownership. It is practically owned by the California Development Company and allied or ganizations, which include company organized under the laws of Mexico.
 Desiring to come in under the recla- nation act, the Imperial settlers some months ago organized & water users association and reached an agreement with the California Development Com pany for the purchase of the system. The sum to be paid was $3,000,000 which the land owners hoped to bor. TOW from the government. It Is under. stood that the deal could not be sane. tioned by the government owing to complications involved on account of a part of the canal system being in Mex. ico, and for the further reason that the reclamation law does not provide for government loans on such terms as were desired in this case.

Largest Warship Planned.

Plans are now being prepared for a new battleship which will eclipse any other in existence. Its main battery will consist of ten Pinch guns and it's secondary battery of 20 naval three inch guns. The record of cures made by the famous HOstetter's Stomach Bitters in cases of stomach, liver and bowel complaints completely eclipSes that of any other remedy. Its great sue csss has been due entirely to its ability to restore the appetite, promote sound sleep, strengthen the organs of diges- ton and assimilation and thus curing heartburn, bloating nausea, sick head ache: costiveness, torpid liver, impure blood, chills, cold and la grippe. We urge every sufferer to try bottle at once. Good health will be your sure reward. Thousands of men aud women hav9 found this true. Your druggist will supply you with the genuine.

City Council Doings.

The city council last week let the grading of First avenue from Second street to Orange avenue to Archie Griffin. A petition asking that Second avenue be graded from Second street to Speese Butte was favorably consid- cred, the council showing an inclina- tion to push it through after the com pletion of the work on First avenue. The appointment of an official meter inspector was postponed until the next regular meeting. Complaints from a number of saloon keepers of an excess i've license led to the councils granting a temporary rebate pending an investi- gation of the matter. A temporary rebate was also allowed on billiard ta- ble licenses.
