On September 80 is the Jewish New
Year, this year Number 5GG6, one of
the most sacred holidays to the Jew,
when all petty quarrcls are forgotten,

"AnI in the seventh month on the
first day Of the month shall We have
n holy cOnvocation; no servilc work
shall We do; day of blowing the cor

THE RIOTS IN
 THE CAuCASUS.

It would seem that with the arrival of peace in Manchuria this would be bad time for any of Russia's sub jects to raise the banner of rebellion. This is what is being done in the Cau- casus region. On the surface of things it is a fight between the Tartars and the Armenians, but in reality it means a dislocatiOn of society in that quar- ter and revolt against the estab- lished authorities. In Baku the prin- cipal town in the district of disturb ance, the czar has Troclaimed martial law. Hundreds of lives have been lost and millions of dollars of property has been destroyed in the rioting.
 In reality the time is not quite so inopportune for the rebels as it may seem. Linievitch's army is thousands of miles away from the scene. The czar cannot spare any troops from Russia, for nobody can tell when there will be an explosion in St. Petersburg, Moscow. Warsaw and other centers in Nicholas realm. The Caucasus revolt is serious from an economic side Baku's district is the richest oil field on the globe except the Beaumont district of Texas. Most of Russia's supply of oil comes from the Baku field. Not only is the-e a blockade on that field now, but many of the refineries have been burned and some of the oil wells have been fired.
 Nicholas faithful Cossacks are on guard in the Caucasus. but thus far they have not been able to get control of the situation The rebellion threat ems to spread in Asia, while lhe czar's European domain EIay have eIuptions at any time Then there is a peril in getting Linievitch's army on the scene. Many of the soldiers are be lieved to be favorable to revolution, and it is not at all certain that they would turn their guns against the rebels. Nicholas troubles did not end when Oyama's army stacked it's guns a few days ago. His reliance now is on the difficulty of communication be tween different parts of his empire which prevents concerted action by his enemies over large areas. The Russian liberals, who, in the interest of freedom, would have been glad t9 see the war last longer, may possibly rejoice at those outbreats ia the Cau casus.

It will be remembered that when the Territorial Board of Equalization met in June they placed an assess ment Of several hundred thousand dol lars on the trusts who own the private refrigerator cars in which meats, eggs, fruits and vegetables are shipped to Arizona After Governor Kibbey forced HIS board of equalization to make the outrageous raise on the min ing industry the matter of assessing these trust owners of the private car lines was reconsidered and the assess ment placed upon them in June was stricken of. It is claimed by the hay eating editors of the Salt River valley that the Governor was after the rich corporations. but in the light of the treatment of the trust private car companies we submit that the Gov erncr has deceived the hay-eaters.

SONORA.


 Every day brings the very best of news from the mining camps in So nora, tributary to the line of the Naco- zari railroad. There is some marvel ously rich gold mining country south of Douglas and many of the mines have recently been taken hold of by men who have the means to develop the lodges and bring them to a pro ductive state and erect mills to re- duce the ore to bullion The Fl Tigre mine has already proved its worth, and the struggle now going on in the courts at fabulous expense shows what this mine is considered to be worth.
 In the vicinity of Nacozari there are several important development prop ositions getting a good start, in addi- tion to the constant expansion of the enterprise of the Moctezuma Copper Company The Hidalgo mine bids fair to develop into an important cop per proposition This mine is being developed under some difficulties, ow- ing to the foul air encountered in the drilC at the hundred-foot level, but ore Of sufficient quantity and value is being encountered to justify a con tinuance of the work.

One result of the Monday
mass meeting was the addition
Of about FIVE hundred dollars to
the rightof- way fund and it
now totals up within five hun
dred dollars Of what the COM

to cover the cost of the same.
Another result of the meeting
is that the com mittee, backed
by several prominent citizens.
has determined to guarantee to
the Santa Fe the required right
of-way to the county line in or
der that the work may proceed
at once. 1t is expected, how
ever, that several citizens who
are not yet down for anything
will aid in ma king up this ex-

right-of way the committee has

about one half of the remainder
can be had in the same manner
and the balance of it, say one
eight of the whole, must be OBJ
tanned through the courts.
To date then, the Santa Fe
