day morning to look after their
mining interests. A number OF
them are stockholders in the Ne

the new Omaha mill started. The
mill was not started, however, on

The BeeHer-Pease Cases.

After sevefal hours of legal sparring and side-stepping by the opposing fore es in the Pease and Beemer litigation. by stipulation of attorneys the numer- ous suias and counter suits have been reduced 10 one, and that was put on trial yesterday. The title of this case is H. J. Beemer vs. O. X. Pease ct al to annul certain contracts; the appoint ment of receiver, and to recover $304, : 900.
 One of the cases docketed, and the merits of which hi"ge npon the result of the ono on trial, is wherein Pease tor the American Mining and Invest ment Company sues the Amalgamated Gold Mines Company and H.J. Beemer intervenor, for damages in the amount of &, 450, ,000, for breach of contract.
 This litigation involves alleged mines in the Quartzsite district, Yuma coun- ty. It appears that a contract was en- tered into by which Beemer was to pay Pease three million dollars, or there abouts, for the property or an intSrest in it, and was also to put up the cash fora stamp mill and other necessary machinery to operate the alleged mine. After an investment of several hun dred thousand dollars in the proposi- tion Beemer claims to have discovered that he was being windled-that the alleged mine was fake--and refused to advance any more funds, or fulfill the contract further. The first legal squabble was over machinery on the ground. Pease won tue tirst round. securing the appointment of his brother as receiver to take charge of the prop erty, but little later Judge Campbell revoked ihis appointment and named Herbert Brown, who is now receiver.
 The suit now on hand will determine whether the contract on Beemer's part shall be annulled or enforced-or at least that is the apparent object of the suit; whether it will or not remains to be seen. With the large sums of money involved and the array of legal talent on either side, the litigation may lengthen out, take various turns and continue indefinitely. Mir. Beener is repnted to be mufti-miTlionaire and very much inclined to spend good many thousand dollars, if necessary, to establish what he considers are his rights. On the other hand, Mir. Pease has demonstrated that he is not only a clever promoter, but a resourceful fighter ''from away back" So the. legal battle promises to be royal one,
 The attorneys in the case are: For Beemer-Attorney General Clark and General Morrison of Pres colt, and District Attorney C. L. Brow of Yuma: for Pease-ex-Chief Justice Baker, U. $. Attorney Alexander, Christy & Lewis and ex-Chief Justice Street of Phoenix, and Henry Wupper- man of Yuma.
 Tbe jury is composed of the follow ing: T W Underhill, c w Thomas. c E Potter, G F Jaggers, E Hayden, Frank Keppler, Jefferson D Baker, j H Haynes, Edward Baker, BL Meeden, Joseph C Dillon and w w Lowe.

 A Cow that Ate Hardware

A recent press telegram from Bryn Mawr, Pa., says:
 The best bred COW will not thrive so we'll as a goat on a hardware diet. The experience of John Blackburn's fine milker in this borough has demonstrat- ed that. He bought her a year ago, and until a week since she gave good milk, though it raised less and less cream. Then she pined and died, and a veterinary surgeon has just found out why. Here are those portions of the contents of her stomach which he has set apart as curiosities of bovine appetite;
 A handful of nails, large and small.

wnK Watkins Escapes From Asylum

Bowed with the weight of years, William w. Watkins, an old soldier, has made his way from Phoenix, Ari- zona. to Les Angeles. He will try to secure admission to the Soldiers Home at Sawtele, where he hopes to pass his few renaining years in peaee-
 escaped from the insane asylum at Phoenix February l4,7' said the old man yesterday. ''l did net like the way was treated there; and, besides. thought I was entitled to enter the home because of my services in the war. No, I do not think there was any special effort oh the part of the authorities to capture me. l just walked away from the asylum and kept On walking"
 The above is from the Examiner of the 9th. Wm. Watkins was sent to the asylum from Yuma county m 1902 He filed on homestead in Yuma val ley twelve or fifteen years ago, built a shack and lived there alone for long time, though he made few improve ments, and was looked upon as very eccentric and queer old man. Talk ing further to an Examiner reporter, Watkins said:
 They say l am insane, but they never have proved it. They just sent me to the asylum because would not be imposed upon and stood up for my rights. These clothes I have or were given me, and they look all right. but now that l an in Los Angeles know that l will get along all right until rny papers come, and then they will take me in at the home and my troubles will be at an end"

The Suns Legitimate
 Methods.

The Yuma Sun don't seem to appre ciate its own medicine when compelled to take dose of it. Mir. Winsor has made personal and vicious attacks or me more than a dozen times. It looks all right to Mir. Winsor to heap abuse cn me until he gets dose in return Then he (for the sake of decency crawls in tbe hole. Well, let him stay there and hello "liar." That don't prove anything.
 The Yuma Sun of April Sth stated Shat the chairman of the Board of Su- peryisors knew of that S7O0 back tax printing before the editor of the Sun did. Well, MT. Winsor, you are liar and am prepared to prove my asser- ton by both Mr. Marvin and Mir. Donk- ersley. Mir. Polhamus worked over two weeks on the back tax books of 1888 to 1904 during the month of Janu- ary, and the Board of Supervisors con- cluded to let the back tax book of 1904 go over until the quarterly meeting in April. The Board never had an cp- portunity to examine or make any cor rections in the back tax of 1905 until all the suits had been filed iu court To prove this we will say that three widows who have been exempt from taxation for the last ten years now have suits pending in court for the back taxes of 1905.
 Ia regard to the prostitution of my official position to help my friend Dor rington, why not tell the truth. Of course the majority of people in Yuma know that MT. Winscr had rather tell a lie for nothing than tell the truth for pay The explanation is that Mr. Wiusor, by "bulldozing and buffalo ing" P. Hodges. obtained all the print ing of the summons of the years 1888 to 1904. In addition, Mir. Winsor claims he furnished between Sl00 ard S200- worth of blanks and other stationery, which was without authority of any county official. Part of these bills are now before the Board of Supervisors. So 1 consider the Yuma Sun has had a pretty good ''rake off," 1 told MT. Hodges that when he got ready to pub fish the back tax suit for 1905 to divide it up between Winsor and Dorrington; because Dorrington is a taxpayer and Winser is not. That is all there is to' that part of my official prostitution.
 Mr Winsor claims that the Repub- lican members of the Board of Super visors lack fairness and honest busi- Hess principles. or any regard for the taxpayers of Yuma county. The tax payers will find out that the Republi- can Board has paid up that 1000 which Yuma county owed when we took effice in 1905. Before January lst. l901 the county will be on a cash basis
 Now, Mr. Winsor, the Republican Board is all right, only we did not un- derstand your Legitimate" methods of doing business, which is in every day life called graft We are onto you now and will serve notice that your fu- tdre graft must stop. No more of it 70 far as Yuma county is concerned. You may keep up your graft on the Water Users Association. That is none of our business.

costs the company S1.000 a month. for besides the men in the employ of the company there are other residents of Boludo, in all probably 700 inhabit- ants.
 The camp is connected by telephone with the railroad line and from there communication is possible with the outside world, an improvement of spe- cial value to the company. Later it is the plan to use electricity in the operation of the ore cars running over the district, which will bring the ore to the mills. Several other properties of Mexican ownership are being oper- ated in the vicinity.
 It was the original plan Of MT. Hirschfeld to remain at the mine until the arrival there of Colonel Randolph who is one of the principal stOckhold CTS in the company, but a change in his plans was made and he left prior 70 his arrival. In the five days he spent at the property. however, he says he saw enough indications to sat isfy him that Llanos de orc would, with the work now under contempla ton carried out, be one of the great mines of Mexico and one of the great est gold mines in the west.
