MINING NEWS.

Yuma Sun: An exceedingly rich strike was made recently in the War Eagle claim in Yuma county. A ledge was opened which is in the neighborhood of seven feet wide, with a pay streak of eight to twenty inches, which runs into the thousands. A sack of this ore sent to Los Angeles assayed $1 ,657.32 in gold per ton. An average taken of the whole ledge shows an average of $150 free milling gold per ton. The War Eagle is owned by certain Arizona capitalists and prominent mining men.
 Mohave Miner: Last Saturday night Henry Lovin brought in from Gold Road one of the largest bars of bullion ever cast at the mill. Its weight was $40,000, and was a cleanup from ten days run of the tanks. The bar was one of the handsomest and cleanest ever brought to Kingm4n. The rnill was shut down for a few days dur ing the week, while the batteries were being changed from dry to wet crush, but the mill was started up Thursday. The object of the new mill is to regrind and amalga- mate before the pulp goes to the tanks.
 Clifton Era. The output of the Old Dominion furnaces for the month of January was about 1065 tons of blister copper, very good performance considering several annoying interruptions. Had it not been for the heavy storm that caused washouts on the c. V, c. < N. railroad, reducing the supply Of fuel, the company would have had three furnaces in blast during the latter half of the month, and the production of copper would have been considerably larger. The ar rivals of coke are still too limited to admit of the blowing in of the third furnace. Great activity is noticeable in every branch of the work, both at the smelter and mine.
 Journal Miner: The new Mitch eli economic smelter of the George A. Treadwell company, at Mayer, which has been in course Of eree- tion for several months is finishe !. All that remains to make the in- itial run is the completion of the ore bins. and in few weeks these will be ready for the ore from the many properties of the company. The new plant is pronounced one of the best ever constructed in this territory and is of capacity of 250 tons, having a tuyere dimen- sion of 40x120 inches. 1t Is of a type used at Jerome, Bisbee, the Cananeas and other places. The completion of this magnificent smelter is one of the most import ant propositions of late years to be transacted in this section.
 Tombstone Prospector: A big merger has been effected at Bisbee, whereby all of the mining com panies of the district have been absorbed by the Calumet < Ariz- ona Consolidated Mining Company and the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining Company The Calumet < Pittsburg, the Lake Superior and Pittsburg, the Pittsburg < Duluth and the Junction will pass out of existence and merge with the Cal-

EDITOR COURIER: Thinking that
you would like some word from Hills

as item writing appears to be very
popular now days. The recent rains
are delaying the farm work However
Zeno Hobbs and Pete Sweeney are up
to time as they have finished gather

that the farmers that want to be up
to date go TO Zeno and Pete for their
early variety of corn TO plant. There
is nothing like having things early.
Frank Murry went TO Ireland last

An older mechanic said: Since
we've had no chance to waste our
wages for whisky, we've never seen
the need of striking"
Didn't you miss the saloons?"
Yes, at first. didn't know what
TO do with myself in the evenings. But
plenty of good reading-rooms, coffee
rooms, and cheap concerts have taken
their places. Our young men read
twice as much as they did ten years
ago"
A clergyman said: Since we've
only mans natural sinful tendencies
TO fight, and not the alcohol fiend also
something approaching the Christian
ideal is being realized"
But the best testimony of all came
from an aged woman, who gave it
with tear-streaming eyes: God bless
the day they shut up the saloons! My
husband died in the gutter: but Pro-
hibition came just in time to save my
three boys"
At first Hollands inquiries were
made from curiosity and an inherent
love for dssecting novel conditions;
but as his view broadened and the un-
speakabe good wrought by the abol-
tion of strong drink in his native land
became more and more apparent, the
mans moral nature was stirred TO its
depths, and he began to feel some
thing of the enthusiasm that had ami
mated the workers in the movement
thirty years before. Ere two months
had passed he had formed two resolu-
tions: First, never to drink in
toxicating liquor again; second. to
return to Africa and devote the re-
mainder of his life to fighting the
drink curse there This duty seemed
to him the more imperative because
he had been instrumental in introduc-
ing liquor among the natives
God speed the day when our own
country. now truly great and
glorious, will not stand alone in this
grand reform, and when alcoholic
liquor will be known as are the scarcely
more poisonous mixtures of the
Borgias, only in the pages of history.

.nrcTFp BY MRS. NJ. L. HOBBS.
IN 1920.

.ou sturdy looking, bronzed man

q @Dyi ,,so landed from an Atlantic

dlnOrointed in his first love affair, he
abpoff N the year 1894. served his con-
l,~c. .a,;or with civilized life and started
~ y n exploring tour through Africa.
m sdvised as the move appeared at
~ time il was made, much good had
rss,,lted Holland was possessed OF
ar,nIe means. an indomitable will, and
sbnndance of courage; and ms travels
ba5 resulted in valuable additions to
+ FORMATIONS regarding the Dark Con-
t;rent His rugged, outdoor life had
.trengthened physique naturally
rther delicate, and his varied expert
erres had developed the strong side
Of his character.
Holland had originally intended re-
naming in Africa only about two
years. but the further he travelled the
more fascinated he became with the
maryels of the great country, and the
less inclined he was to return 10
America. When tired of exploration
he went extensively into gold-mlnng;
and his stay in Africa was prolonged
until twenty-six eventful and exciting
wears had elapsed before he was forced
10 return home in response to an
rrgent business call. Partly from
necessity. more. perhaps, from cholce'
he had failed to keep informed OF the
worlds S progress, rarely seeing news
paper. and confning his American
correspondence to business letters tc
his New York agent. He had no neal
relatives.
After passing the custom-houst
ordeal. Holland took an electric cab Z
the Hotel j, where he had formerly
lived and where he intended stopping
while in the city He found magnl
fcent structure on the site of the ole
hostelry Of that name which stooc
there up to 1900. AS the traveller reg
istered. the clerk politely asked:
viii you be shown to your room
SIR" ,
Presently, answered Holland
But first please show me the way Z
the bar.
The clerk, a young man of abou
twenty-three, gazed into the oldel
mans face a moment, as though M
feared his ears had deceived him.
Beg pardon. sir, but what did yol
ask?"
A little irritated at the fellow Z
stupidity, Holland repeated sharply,
Where is the bar?'
Then a light broke across the other
face. He comprehended at last.
Oh. there is none, you know. lo'
must have been away long time
SIR.
Yes. twenty-six years; but wha
Of that?"
well. there's been no liquor solo
as a beverage in this country for
lets see-nine years. Yes, it's beer
that long since Prohibition passed.
Holland started at the young mar
IN speechless surprise. If he had beer
informed that the sale of meat, mac
been prohibited he would hardly hav'
been more astounded. Though but
moderate drinker, Holland had com
to regard liquor as one of the matter

manufacture, as we'll as for such por-
tons of the machinery as could be
turned to useful purposes, so that
many of the distillers and brewers
were enabled to sell out at satisfac-
tory advance on cost, and reinvest in
other enterprises. The retail dealers,
who had little or no capital invested,
simply found their way into useful
occupations.
How did the State and general
governments stand the loss of re-
venue?"
There was none. The direct loss
was more than balanced by the re-
duction in criminal and pauper ex-
penses, and the vastly increased pros
perity."
Are you a Prohibitionist?" was
Hollands next question.
Certainly. 1t would be hard to
find any man, woman, or child who
isn't. The Prohibitionists still main
tam their organization, but since they
swept the country in 1910 there has
been no other National political party.
Elections have been simply the selec-
tion of the best men. don't think
that now their mission is fully accom-
plished, the leaders have any great
desire to remain in power, and will
make room for any new party with a
vital issue. 1t is not unlikely that
new opposing parties will arise. Per
haps it is best that they should; but
politics, in the old sense, died with
the rum power. Release from the
dominion of professional politicians
was not the least of the benefits aris-
ing from Prohibition.
f'Were you a Prohibitionist when
the amendment was passed|' Hol-
land asked.

YOU the main facts. 1t would take a
month to exhaust the subject. Good
morning"
After Holland had dined (wineless)
he took an electric carriage and made
a tour of the city On every hand he
found wonderful Improvements tend
ing to the annihilation of time and
space and the promotion OF human
comfort, and more wonderful yet, he
found universal cleanliness of person
and morals, and everywhere courtesy
and intelligence. The downtown
tenements, those hives of disease and
vice. had disappeared, and the class
who had domiciled there were removed
to airy quarters in the upper city.
The immense territory once occupied
by the tenements and saloons was
covered with fine business houses.
After a weeks attention to busi-
) ness matters, Holland travelled over
the Union and talked with journalists,
clergymen, workingmen, capitalists,
LAWYERS. and merchants. They all
, told the same story about the great
change.
An apprentice in machine-shop,
whom he asked how they settled
. strikes. answered: There have been
none. sir, since can remember. |

/ never was in one.
