He then organ- ized this club and said the larger com panies forced him to do 1t by a com bination to keep his advertising out of the magazines.

A town that never has anything to do in a public way is on it's way to the cemetery. Any citizen who will do nothing for his town is help ing dig the grave. A man that will curse his town furnishes the coffin. The one who is so selfish as to have no time from his business to give to city affairs is making the shroud. The merchant who will not advertise is driving the hearse. The man who is pulling back from any public enterprise throws bo- quets on the grave. The man who is so stingy and selfish as to be bowling hard times breaches the funeral sermon and sings the dox- ology and thus the town lies buried free from all sorrow and care.-Ex.

Phoenix on Water Question.

Be it resolved by the citizens of Phoenix in mass meeting assem- bled:
 That we are unqualifedly in fa- vor of the action of the common council of the city of Phoenix in disposing of the $3O0,O0O worth of waterworks bonds in such a man. her as to relieve the city of all liti- gation regarding said bends and we approve and indorse the declared policy of the common council to commence the immediate construc- tion of an adequate waterworks system for the city.
 That we indorse the action of the waterworks commission and com mend the selection of the commits sion made by the council.
 That we, the citizens of Phoenix, have the highest confidence in the business ability, honesty and integ- rity of the members of the former commission, but that we believe that the commission should have been made up of men who have always been in hearty sympathy and accord with the policy of the council.
 That, whereas, the Hon. J. c. Adams has resigned the office of Mayor because he could not die tate the policy of the council we believe that it is unwise to have him at the head of the city gov ernment and believe that his resig. nation should be accepted.

GENERAL NEWS NOTES
Interesting Items PurIoined From
 Numerous Exchanges

The Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoe- nix depot at Phoenix was burglar ized early Friday morning and the cash drawer robbed. The amount of the money taken is not def nitely known, but is supposed to be in the neighborhood of $27O. There was found in the drawer $25 which had been overlooked by the burglar.
 The Lantry-Sharpe Construction company has about completed its work in Crozier canyon, where a new road bed excavated from solid rock has been made through the gorge. The road bed is almost ready for the laying of steel and it is expected that this immense piece of repair work will be finished by the latter part of the summer.- Albuquerque Citizen.
 It is rumored in railroad circles that the Harvey house which was recently destroyed by fire at Ash Fork will not be rebuilt, but that the eating house will be built at Williams instead. The. reason for the change is said to be because trains arrive and depart from Will jams at better hours for meals than they do at Ash Fork --Albuquerque citizen.
 An attempt was made last Sat urday night to rob the Apache County bank, at Concho, Arizona. Ambrosio Candelaria, who was sleeping in the rear room, heard the noise made by the robber in trying to raise a window. He went out and tackled the robber and got shot in the shoulder for his trouble. The robber escaped. A reward of $250 is offered for the arrest of the would be-burglar.
 It has been proposed to close the stores of Tucson in the after moons from twelve until four o'clock and then open up again in the evenings until nine o'clock. This plan would enable many of the ladies who do not like to do their shoping during the severe heat of the day to attend to it in the cooler evenings and would also open the stores when the shop and office men of the railroad are on the streets thus affording them a better opportunity to do their buying.
 One man with broken leg and a child who at first was thought to have been killed, is the result of trying to put off fireworks on the plaza, at point where anyone can get close to the stand upon which the display is being made. Lam bert Butz, a carpenter, living on Sheldon street, was the unfortunate to receive broken leg, and a boy here with his mother, named Re- polla Suppata, whose father is an employe of the United Verde Cop per company, is the lucky child to escape death.-Prescott Journal Mi ner.
 Geo. U. Young, who has been successfully operating the proper ties of the Derby Mining company, a few miles west of Prescott, is in: town making arrangements for the addition of five more stamps,to his mill which, up to date, has been running with five stamps. He will also put in pipe line one and one- half miles long from Willow creek : to his mining camp; will build a :, water storage reservoir at, Willow creek, place a pump there and pump water to his camp. It gives : the Courier pleasure to report MT. Young's success in the operation of the property, as he has camped with it late and early, always being satisfied that the merits of the prop erty justified the work and ex- penditure of money to place it in
