Old Man Suicides.

An unusual tragedy took place in a
lonely cabin in the mountains three
and a half miles west of Bluecreek
a station on the Spokane Falls &
Northern railway, II miles south OF
Colville. some time last week, when
william Huehne, bachelor, ended
his life by first stabbing himself
three times with a large pocket knife
and to make his work complete, sent
a rifle bullet through his brain.
Little is known of the man beyond
the fact that he drifted into the coun-
try a couple of years ago and made a
homestead settlement on 4O-acre
tract of land in the mountains where

Believing that IAN ounce Of pre-

cealed weapons in Whitman county.

BILE to be on the lookout for concealed
weapons and to arrest anyone found
with a concealed weapon who is not
authorized to carry the same, and
will prosecute him to the fullest ex-

YAoUIS ARE FIRING OF THE CONFLICT

Reports coming up from the Yaqui Indian country in Sonora all tend to strengthen the belief that the Yaqui warriors are getting tired of their struggle against the authorities of the state of Sonora. It was reported two weeks ago on excellent authority that the Yaqui leaders had expressed a de sire to meet with the authorities of So nora and come to an agreement which would put an end. now and forever, to the troubles which has been a source Of great loss to the Indians and to the entire state of Sonora. The Indians no doubt have grievances which are just and have acted on the theory that by continuing a depredating war on the people developing the resources of Sonora they could force the authori- ties to make good to the tribe some of the wrongs which it claims to have suffered. But in this attempt the In dians have made matters worse and no doubt are now ready to come to peace at any price and acknowledge that the Sonora government is SUI preme and that it must be obeyed.
 Few Indians in the west, including
 ose in the United States and those ~;a Sono', but what have been made to surrender m..,ny of their rights by the onward march v4 ei'iii1a'ion which was nothing more nor less tnH-, ''i0hp-,,i robbery, but the Indian Is without any means of redress and the longer he fights the greater nJs ''ss' Now the Yaqui has reached the pc>u' in his desperate resistance against the authority of the Mexican government that if he fights longer it means total extermination of his race or its re moval from the land of his fathers, which, according to the testimony of old Geronimo, is a punishment not much to be preferred to extermination.
 Arizona has known in the past what 1t Is to have renegade bands of warning Indians to contend with and our peo ple have been in earnest sympathy with Sonora and will have as much reason to rejoice at the permanent re tirement from the warpath of the Va quis as will the people who live in So nora. The prosperity of Sonora mus necessarily add much to the prosperit!
 of Arizona.

 Secretary Shaw has just discovered that to increase our trade with South America we should make our goods to conform to the tastes and the wh,ms of those people That idea has been exploited In and out of congress ever since the tariff has been discussed. ProtectionistS and free traders have always been in accord on that palpa- bly plain proposition. If Secretary Shaw should delve a little deeper into his study CT trade relations with for eign countries he will find there are other obstacles of even greater inl- portance than not offering goods that customers are used to buying.

RECLAMATION OF THE YUMA DESERT

One of the most difficult irrigation undertakings of the present day is the proposition to transform S5,O0O acres of the arid Yuma desert into fertile farming land. The United States re- clamation service have awarded the contract for this work to J. c. White & Co. Inc
 The project presents almost insur- mountable difficulties in many ways. The nearest town is the city of Yuma, located twelve miles down the Cobra do river. Suitable drinking water is extremely scarce. and the summer tenn perature in the Yuma desert ranges from 100 to 12O degrees. A modern camp will be built, and will be con trolled by special officers employed by the contractors. or by the government police of the Indian reservation. It will be equipped with a complete re- frigerating system to provide ice and cold storage.
 The transportation difficulties will be overcome to a great extent by the use of 8 thirty foot gasoline launch to run as an express boat between the dam and the city of Yuma. Barges and other floating equipment will be used to transport heavy supplies. 4. tne dam will be located complete tele- graph systems, so that constant com nunication may be had with the city of Yuma.
 At point where the Colorado river forms a dividing line between the state of California and the territory of Arizona a dam one mile long will be built across the river. It will extend across the valley, and will have a sluiceway at either end which will be connected with the main ar teries of the system of irrigating ca nals. Under ordinary conditions the Colorado river at this point is about One-quarter of a mile wide, but the flats on either side are frequently flooded by high water This is espec- tally the case during the early summer months when heavy floods are caused by melting snow in the mountains.
 The contractors estimate that the work will require the removal of over 300, 900 cubic feet of solid rock excava- tion, and 3OO.OOO cubic yards of lighter material. The rocks will afterwards be used in filling in the dam. The three vertical concrete core walls in the interior of the dam will require 30000 cubic yards of concrete and 50,- 900 lineal feet of sheet piling. Eighty thousand cubic yards of rock paving three feet thick will be needed to con plsts lace of the daa.
 Very little war.k .az~ Fe 9one duri"@ the time of heavy floods. ana me cG:f- straoti6h is to be pushed rapidly this fSill and winter, so that the dam may be finished betsFa the wet season of 1906. To facilitate construction, large orders have already been placed for prompt shipments of the elaborate equipment necessary to successfully complete the work Construction will be supervised by specially trained men who will act under instructions from their New York office. As indicative of their determination to finish this great work within the year, it is inter esting to know that work was actually commenced by the White company's engineers within six hours after the
 contract had been signed.
