The Kemper herald. (Scooba, Miss.) 1875-1908, 1905-11-16

Few persons know why August has
thirty-one days, July, which takes its
name from julius Caesar, has thirty
one days, and Augustus, who completed
the calendar, declined to submit to the
indignity of seeing his W month
branded with the inferiority of n day
less. The astronomers had accordingly
to reshufie the lunar cards, and after
some perplexity hit upon the ~expedient
of shearing twenty-four hours from
February's glory in order that August
might face the world on a footing OF
perfect equality with July.

The Next Legislature

The next legislature meets on Mon day, January 16th, and will be in session for two months. Governor Brodie is busy preparing his message, which will embody the reports of the various territorial officers. Taking into consideration the contest in Pima county, over the joint councilman, the Democrats will be in control of both houses and will have all of the plums. There are a number of positions to be filled, including the clerks of both houses, sergeants at arms and other officers. The legileture always meets and appoints various committies of both houses to visit the territorial in- stItutions, and until these reports, no important business Is transacted out side of the selection of the officers for the session.
 No formal action has been taken looking towards a contest between N. w. Bernard and E. M Dickerman, over a seat in the council from Pima and Santa Cruz counties and this district may not be represented in the upper branch of the legislature. Tue son Post.

Arizona Is Best.

James McQuarry, one of the oil time miners of the southwest, who spent year or more in the British possessions, Oregon, California and Nevada, returned to Clifton this week, and was more than well pleased to get home. He says there is no country as good as Arizona, and that he will never leave it again. Wages are bet ter in Arizona than in any other sec tion, considering expenses of living. The climate here is far better, and everybody has work here while in other sections It is hard to get As mining country he says Arizona is so far ahead of others that really no comparison can be made. He thinks one fairly good mine, but the camp is over advertised and Is full of idle peo- ple The Goldfielas are producing 2 some wonderfully rich ore, but only a few men are regularly employed. The camp has had big boom. but there are hundreds of idle hungry and cold people there whe are suffering greatly but cannot get away. Joe advises all Arizenans to stay at home. They are better off than they think they are. However, one needs a trip oc- casionally to convince shim of the fact. Copper Era.

GOLDFIELDS A WONDER.
Editor Banta Writes An Interesting
 Letter to Douglas American.

''I want to give you few brief sketches of the Goldfeld country, as have been here now more than two months prospecting. l find Goldfelds to be the greatest camp I have ever visited and I believe 1t is the greatest camp of it's age on earth. Some four or five mines are producing high grade gold ore from the grass roots to the bottom of their works. The water supply is limited and wood scarce. Wood is SIS per cord and going high CT.
 1.-The town IS located twenty eight country, at the foot of flat top mountain that seems to be badly burnt, although the mines are in DOT phyry dykes in the foothills
 It is common to near of strikes in the camp, and strikes that mean thousands of dollars; the gold shines through the rock like diamonds.
 "I would judge there are about 5000 people in Goldfelds. They are coming and going like bees Late in the afternoon 1t Is safe to say you can see a thousand men on the street at one time. In the forenoon most of them go out of town prospecting. The town is mostly tents, but houses are being built as fast as material can be brought in. There are now about two hundred houses of all kinds.
 "A brick yard is in operation, but it can't half supply the demand.
 1.-The entire business of the town seems to be overdone, but they are making money. As to manual labor or mining work, a man can get all he wants at top wages. Miners get s4 day. Every body has money and spends it freely. The saloons are crowded until it is hard to get in or out of them. There are forty saloons, seven or eight stores and about twenty restaurants and lodgings
 "Goldields is not the only good camp Tn the country. Twenty -hve miles south of here is a little camp called LiGa, located in the Lida Bell mountains, which are well timbered, watered and mineralized. It has mostly low grade ore and carries more silver than gold, but there are some late strikes that carry good values. There are four mines working in the Lida camp and several others are be- ing shaped up getting ready for work.
 ''Thirty miles southeast of Gold fields is the Gold Crater, small camp, but very rich. Seventy miles south from Goldields is the noted Bull Frog camp that is now attracting wide at tention and is the making of big camp.
