Better Agricultural Education.

Our present system Of national edu-
cation takes little If any account Of
practical agriculture, yet the ucces
ful farmer, Of today, as is becoming
more aud more generally recognized,
must possess some technical knowledge
Of his business, more than his father or

imperative the introduction into our

studies if American farmers are TO

NEW ERA IN BUILDING

Consideration of plans for the new
court house and the presence of archi-
tects from abroad have had stimula-
ting effect on building operations in
Globe, and the result will work revo-
luton in construction methods here
Modern designs are under consideration
for large hotel, several business build
ings and many residences, all of which
will present architectural features new
to construction in this city. Broad
street improvements now under con-
temptation will cost nearly $3.50, 900.
All of these buildings will be thoroughly
up-to-date in all appointments and or
nate in architectural design. The spirit
of emulation and competition will cause
intending builders to employ competent
architects, with vast benefit to the APP
pearance of the city. In other words,
we are about TO pass into the modern
class of territorial cities and leave vii
lage and mining camp methods far be-

piled for patent to twenty-five claims
in the Black Hills section. The patents
were advertised for in a Prescott pa
per; final proofs were made and final
receipts issued Then Jerome paper
entered protest against the legality of
the patent, for the reason that the law
requires application for patent to be
published in paper printed nearest the
claims. The contention of the jerome
paper was sustained, and two years la
ter the patents were republished in the
Jerome paper. In the intervening time,
the claims had been assessed for taxes,
and on the suit brought to get the taxes
Judge Sloan decided against the county,
holding that the property was not le
gally subject to taxation, for the rea-
son that its owners had not full title to
same from the government; the gist of
the decision being that until such own
ership was had the land would revert to
the public domain upon failure of hold
ers TO do annual assessment work. !
Only improvements on unpatented |
claims are assessable under the law. -

THE GREENE GOLD PLACERS
Investigation and Report Of Experts.
Sworn Statement

On account of statements made by a
stakeholder to a recent meeting of the
Greene Consolidated gold properties in
New York, derogatory to their honest
management and basic value, an inves-
tigation has been made by company
of experts taken to the ground for the
purpose by Col. w. C. Greene.
Under their supervision test runs
were made of large amounts of gravel
taken from the poorest and best of the
ground-as near a fair average as pos
sible to obtain and the returns were
from Sl.25 to Sl.S6 per cubic yard, a
marvellous showing
The experts certify that the first
cleanup amounted TO SIP, $40. 20, and
the second 500, 200, as proved by re-
ceipts of the assistant treasurer of the
United States government. They saw
the richest ground at bed rock has not
yet been reached, and that the proper
ty is very valuable. Three shifts are
being worked and 1877 men are employ
ed. The properties owned consist of

as well as all the American
experts.
AT the directors meetings held in
New York July 8, of the Green Consoli-
dated Gold and the Greene Gold and
Silver companies, the Greene Consoli-
dated Gold directors passed resolutions
expressing confidence in Col Greene

are owners of the Friend group of
mines, which consists of the Friend. Lii
ian and Four Ace. The Friend was a
producer of pay ore six years ago
Considerable ore of high grade was
shipped at that time. The shaft is now
down about 300 feet and is showing a
large body of high-grade sulphide ore.
The Lillian, one of the Friend group,
the last claim worked, is a fine pros
pect. A large body of rich ore is en-
countered in the shaft. Returns give
30 per cent copper and AIS ounces sill

of these ores they are considered very
desirable by smeltermen.
The Four Aces, another of the Friend
group, has the same kind of ore as the
other two. These three claims Join.

Aged United States Senator Mitchell,
of Oregon, has been found guilty of
using his high position for private gain,
though his poverty was an eloquent
argument for belief to the contrary. In
Senator Burton's case there was no
sentiment felt by the members of
congress but contempt, and he has been
ostracised in Washington circles ever
since his guilt was pronounced. Though
gray hairs may excite pity and com
for the aged delinquent no
sentiment will be allowed to mitigate
his punishment, for it is the unwritten
law of congress that the United States
senator must be above suspicion. They
all are-until found out.

Ell TIGRE SEIZED

Douglas, July S.-As a result of the

FLORENCE'S BRIGHT DREAM

Claude Michea, who has been keeping
time at the Arizona Eastern grading
camp on the ella near Winkleman, SAYS
the camp has been moved into the ella
canyon to do heavy rock work. The
company also has large crew at work
on the ella Valley, Globe & Northern
between Bowie station on the main line
and San Carlos. They are practically
rebuilding that portion of the ella Val
ley road and putting 10 pound rails in
place of the old ones.
From San Carlos they will come on
down the ella river and in less than a
years time we will have the main
through line of the S. p. entering
Florence and passing on to Sentinel
where it will again tap the main line
and then that portion of the present
main line lying between Sentinel and
Bowie, will become simply feeder, or
side track devoted to local business. All
through traffic will come by way of
the new cut off which eliminates grades
and pushers and reduces operating ex-
penses over 100000 per annum.
