Reports of travellers returning from Guaymas and Hermosillo continue to be filled with stories of Yaqui out rages. directed principally against the Mexican people. The latest story in wolves considerable strategy on the part of the Indians and resulted in a comparatively heavy loss of life to the Mexican garrison at Ortiz.
 It appears that a band of Yaquis hid themselves behind row of adobe huts in which the women of this garrison live. Then they knifed a sentry and told him to tell his friends that the Yaquis had done it. The man ran toward the stockade, but fell before he reached it. He was seen by the soldiers, who rushed out and were fired upon by the Yaquis. They were entirely at the mercy of the Indians, as they did not dare return the fire for fear of the women in the huts, and a number of them were killed.
 It is also said that three days ago three Mexicans were killed within the environs of Guaymas by the Yaquis. The Indians are very active all the way from Magdalena to the mouth of the Yaqui river and as far east as few miles west of Cumpas, according to stories coming across the border line.

Night Yardmatser G. W. Sheldon was assaulted and severely injured by Edward Howenstine, a discharged switchman, Saturday night. The as- sault was, from the stories told, a most cowardly and unprovoked one. and was due to Howenstine's desire to get even with some one connected with the company because he had been discharged for cause by Yard master Billy Cliff earlier in the day.
 Mir. Sheldon was struck in the fore head by an air coupler, which is a piece of rubber hose, with brass in terlocking coupler on each end. His injuries were dressed by Dr. Futile, the company physician, after he had been removed to his room in the Ave nue Hotel.
 The injury is not considered dan gerous.
 Howenstine was arrested shortly after by Policeman Gentry and lodged in jail where he will remain until after the preliminary hearing at least. A warrant charging aggravated assault was issued.
 It is said that Howenstine concealed himself behind the switch shanty in the yards, and when MT. Sheldon passed. sprang upon him. Whether he thought Sheldon was Cliff or whether in his anger at being dis charged he hit the first man in au- thority to pass him is not known.

Among the relics of the ill-fated ESrindell exploration party now in the
 possession of Captain Rynning, who yeturned last week from his searching grip, are few sheets of paper on which Doc Rails, who was formerly em- FoIoyed in the Copper Queen foundry Tn this city, was keeping a diary and Eoting the events and discoveries of each day. It is not without interest and is given here:
 "Pema Rancho-We stopped here two days on the afternoon of the third day out, and left here for Coyote Springs, changing our plans and not going to Port Libertad, as this is nearer and there is nothing to be gained by going to Libertad. There Is 10 road to Coyote Springs direct from here; only a trail, which our guide tells us he knows; also water holes on the way, so We changed. On our route east of Perna is to be seen
 some of the best land we have seen. Et is as yet government land and can be taken up very cheap, about 30 cents per acre (gold). Water can be had near the surface, and it is a good proposition. Labor is cheap and in the work and attention to stock money can be made fast.
 Coyote Poso (Springs)-This is a cool place to rest, but the water in the well would be condemned were zt in any place which can afford an officer. The first night we came in here the water was a fright-smelled so badly. The following morning I went down into the we'll and cleaned 1t out Found it to be well named, as there were the remains of a dead coyote down there and that was the cause of the flavor of the water. It Is better now, though far from being the best in the world.
 Dan Delones (Ingham) and I went down to the sea, about eight miles, and had a swim, my first in salt water. Tom and Jack kept camp. We saw several deserted Seri will 1ages, but no Indians. The next day Tom and Jack went to the sea, Dan and l keeping camp. They found the S1ecaying remains of a whale and found that we are nearer Tiberon than we expected but have some dis -tance yet to go, and there is no water between here and the spring on the island, and that is more than fifty 7miles away. The third day from here -GtHu l Sldl lCNl lOl lLC ioldLus OuL the coast too rough and broken to get rtlfere, though we were near enough to get a good impression as to what 5t is Ia big mountain sticking out in the water). On the way up the coast we saw several Seri villages and each seemed to have a 'pow-wow" ring for dancing about twenty feet in diameter, and several containing smaller rings inside the larger ones. At one about half way up the coast we ran across a house which seemed Better built than the others. In front of it, or rather between it and the sea, we saw a "pow-wow" ring, and ao one side was plank two by twelve inches and about eleven feet long, which was stuck into the ground. At ehe top of this were two human hands which had probably been there six or seven months. Tom and I have diff ferent ideas about the presence of 1hese human hands, though it is i'm material"

It seems that the man Ingham was known in the party as Dan Dolanes, but no one seems to have known him in this city.

city in general. Prosperity for the

This feature is now clearly recognized
by live business mems clubs every
where and Chey not only work and ad-
vertise at home, but go on excursions
TO surrounding towns within their
trade area That this line of work
pays is pretty clearly proven by the
fact that the clubs Of the most pro
gressiye towns use II. Several towns
in the territory practice it to advan-
tage. The Kansas City people make
frequent and extended trade journeys

MANUFACTURE OF

It is futile to say that the people

maud of the trusts There are estab-
lished records to the contrary. Kansas
has one Of them in the case of binder
twine 1t is a very interesting story
because IL shows what Oklahoma con
victs are helping to do for Kansas
The question very naturally arises
why these things or similar ones can
not be done by Oklahoma. OF course
the answer is clear that nothing can
be done until we get statehood, but
then, it would seem, that the PROPOSE
tion Of putting convict labor against
the trusts would be as beneficial here
as in Kansas
They have demonstrated there that
trust prices can be brought to the state
price, even though the state is unable
to supply the demand for twine. The

Of reaching monopolies and other ways
by which a state can prevent the farm

A Big Difference That Produces I'm
portant Results.
The American has a lot to learn
from the people Of the old world This
is written for the complaining native
vho on looking in his mirror beholds
a failure.
The Homestake mining company
Lead, S. d.. employs many foreigners,
Iacre especially Finlanders. When a
Finn goes to work for that company
he starts with an appreciation OF the
alue Of dollar Having been
round down in the old country he
'oes not put on any style or fubdubs
he Homestake pays arst class wages.
and the Finlander puts the bulk of his
money in the bank. In fve or six
years he takes his money and comes
down here in the valley and buys a
fam, He raises fine horses, he builds
stone barns, and he keeps an eye on
the main chance. The wife makes butt
ter and attends to the chickens. That
Finlander in ten years is a mighty in
dependent proposition.
Put the American? He has been
spoiled He has never worked for
twenty-five cents a day and he speaks
g-andly Of living wages. He takes his
s.; day that the Homestake pays him
every day and spends 1t, and what he
does not spend his wife handles. Mrs.
American demands eleotric lights in
the house and piano, because he
neighbor, whose husband is wealthy
man, has electric lights in the house
and a piano. Mrs. American demands
clothes and hats: likewise music les
sons for Mary Ann, who by the way,
has voice that sounds like ripping up
an iron roof. Every pay day finds the
American behind and in debt Sudden
ly he gets the idea that It is easy to
make money by taekling the roulette
wheel He tries the wheel and fortune
siaps him in the face. After that he
seeks to drown his troubles in the
bowl, The company soon ascertains
that he is not doing his work as he
should, and he is fired without any Ger
emony. After that he stands on the
street corner and howis about the
Cursed corporations and foreign la
bor"
But the Finlander is working away
on his farm. He has started a little
orchard and there are many good
things in his garden. The children are
healthy and strong and are taught not
to be afraid Of hard work. They may
be found in the garden after school,
each one busy wedding the onicns or
the potatoes Mary Ann, the daughter
Of Mrs. american, would not weed po-
tatoes. It would soil her hands and

You see the lesson, don't you? Too
much bric-a-brac in the front room and
