The people of St. David, in Cochise county, Arizona, are watching the re- suits of the artesian water develop ments now being conducted there. They are now down 46O feet, and while they have something of an ar tesian flow of water already, the drill CTS are going ahead with the hope of getting big flow. If people of other sections believe that artesian water prospecting is probable and likely, why it should also be practicable in the great plain between the Santa Fe and the Colorado river. Let some one make test of it and we believe that the results will be such as to cause thousands of wells to be sunk on what is now known as a desert.-News- Herald.

The work of getting the three new marine boilers in shape is progressing rapidly at the big shaft of the Consoli- dated Mines company. All of the boil CTS have been put in place, the stacks adjusted and the steam connections made. With plenty of power from the boilers, and the pumps ready to handle over 100000 gallons every twenty-four hours, everything looks encouraging for most successful bat tie for the unwatering of the mines. At the mill at the present there are running twenty-five stamps, and next week will see others dropping. Four new cyanide tanks will be put in com mission on Monday. Mechanics are at work fixing up the battery on the east side, putting on new shoes, etc., and will complete the work so that they can be used early next week. A force of carpentars is at work building an extension to the Hume that carries off the waste from the mill.-Tomb- stone Prospector.

It is estimated that the registration this year will reach over 1000 in O. chise county. Last year the total reg istration was 5,261. This year nearly every voting precinct in the county, with perhaps the exception of Naco, will show a very decided increase. This will be particularly so in Bisbee, Douglas, Tombstone and Benson, while the smaller precincts will show up very well. The vote this year will probably show Cochise county to be at the head of the list.

If reports from Washington are true
the South Dakota situation grows more
complicated daily on account Of the ri.
val candidacy of Senator Gamble and
Representative Martin for the Gamble
succession. SO far as the distribution
of patronage for South Dakota goes, it is
case Of three against one. Kittredge
Burke and Martin being linked together
while Senator Gamble is herding by
himself. The first test of strength be.
tween the two factions will come on the
United States district attorney. Kit.
tredge, Burke and Martin have recon-.
mended Judge Bernatzki of Salem for
the place, while Gamble has recon-.
mended the present incumbent, j. d.
Elliott. 1t is generally thought that a
man recommended by the trio will be
selected, but until Senator Gamble learns
this from the president he is making
heroic efforts to bring about the ap.
pointment Of Elliott.
