be made upon His own personal
record it will be no handicap in the
race to make known the fact of his
distinguished ancestry. His full
name, which by the way has never
been exploited as he modestly prefers
the familiar greeting of "Will," at
once calls it to the readers mind the
name of one of the worlds greatest
novelists, J. Fennimore Cooper.
This distinguished writer was d
cousin of Will Cooper's grandfather,
who was born in Virginia and served
the country in the war of 1872, being
at that time large planter. Mr..
Cooper's father, Professor John
Cooper, was prominent educator in
Indiana Ahd a elassmate of the late
President Harrison in Miami dnivet-
sity. It might be further said that
the family traces its descent through
English history to connection with
Sir Astle Cooper, famous English
surgeon.

Sleep and the Temper.

The popular science of Drs. Acland
and Bevan Lewis, who tell us to sleep
as long as we can, makes more talk
than anything else read before the
British Association and deserves to
do so. There is a great deal about it
in the papers, too, cordially written
by weary journalists. The Daily
Telegraph mentions d well-known
Judge who is over eighty and looks
young as Il consequence of always
taking d nap ''when SO disposed:'
and gallant officer of seventy who
is taken for fifty-fve, not 'in the
dusk with the light behind him but
on the fierce parade ground. There
is also the case of a ''hard working
literary man"-the adjective is
redundant-whose wife says that
whenever ne grows sulky or de-
pressed or dyspeptic she lets him
lie an hour or two longer in bed.
1t never fails to cure him." This
is suggestive, going beyond what
was said by the doctors. Let us sleep
and cultiyate good temper,-Pall
Mall Gazette.

IN CAPTIVE CHAINS.

Like Patrick Henry, I've always said
I'd never be slave;
I'd sooner die for Liberty
And fill a PATRIOTS grave.
My wife, she too, has always been
For Liberty stickler;
The very latest brand at that,
On this point she's partic'lar.
1 we'll recall when we were wed:
Would she obey? Not she!
No such vowsSshe would ever make
In this age of Liberty.
Times change! For now, alas, L find,
No longer we are free:
We're both ruled by tyrant bold
His age in coming three..''

GiLA SHERIFF'S TRAGIC ENDING.
Globe. Arizona, Man Found Dead in
Barn.

At few minutes after > O'Clock
on the afternoon of the 2nd, Edward
P. Stanley, Sheriff of Gila county,
was shot and almost instantly killed
by a bullet from his own pistol, d
45-cal. Colt.
Stanley at the time was in d barn
in the rear of his residence, and
there was no eyewitness to the shoot
ing. The bullet entered the left
temple, ranged slightly upward,
came out about an inch and half
above the right eye, and passed
diagohaliy through the board wall
of the barn.
There is no appearance of a powder
burn about the face or head and the
family scout the idea of suicide.
Mr.. Stanley had gone into the barn
to prepare some pack-saddles for a
trip to the mountains, which he had
arranged to take with friends the
next day. The theory advanced is
that the six-shooter fell from his
pocket as he stopped over the pack
saddles, and was accidentally dis
charged.
Mr.. Stanley had just passed
through an exciting contest for re-
nomination as Sheriff by the Demo-
cratic party, and was defeated by J..
HI. Thompson. He accepted this
defeat apparently with good grace,
and pledged hearty support to his
successful rival.
The deceased had been a resident
of Gila county for twenty-five years,
and had many friends. He leaves a
young wife and number of relatives
in Globe.

General FIGHT on Oil Trust.

At a cabinet meeting held in Wash
ington last week it developed as to
the Standard Oil that the activity of
the Bureau of Corporations will be
extended to other centers OF action
than Chicago. The government will
push the Indictment in st. Louis and
also frame up indictments for the
southern district of California. The
department OF justice, as usual, is
making a secret of its next point of
attack. but it can be stated conf
dentially that southern California is
about to be ordered to go to work
actively.
There is also a good chance that
the lumber trust of California, where
ever it can be hit, will be attacked
by the department of justice. Cali
fornia is probably the place where
the first of a series of such attacks
will be made.

The new blast furnace recently
added to its smelling plant at Hum

condition, says the Prescott Journal
Miner The furnace, which has a
capacity of $50 tons daily, is particu-
larly adapted to the smelling of
coarse. low grade silicious ores. 1t
is a valuable acquisition toa the COM
pany's plant, as a large ameount of
the output of the mines of this sec

character. which cannot be treated
as economically by the reverberatory
process as by the blast furnace
method.

Captain John d. Burgess has trans
ferred his group of fifteen claims and
four millsites, situated seven miles
north of Tucson to the POntotoc

is $500, 900. This discovery was made
last March and Captain Burgess has
made the record of discovery, deYel-
opment and sale of mining property
of this section at least six months
and 100000. The new company is
composed of Texas and Mississippi

directors are for the present Tucson

manager and will prosecute vigorous
and extensive development on the
claims. The property is most prom
ising. At so feet depth, 43 feet of
1913 per cent. copper sulphides have
been crosscut, and the hanging, from
surface measurements is upward of
100 feet further ahead. The ore is
getting richer in copper as the cross
cut advances toward the hanging
wall. This ledge crops for $4,000
lineal feet and in several places is
upward of 600 feet wide. This prop
erty will make Tucson the copper

= During the campaign that is to
follow, much will be heard of "Billy"
8 Cooper, but opposition to him will of
necessity be confined to discussion
of issues, for he stands on clean
record. Much is already known of
Mr.. Cooper, in general way, but in
the light of events that will make
him prominent from this time for
ward, sketch of his career, some
what biographical, will be both
timely and interesting.
Mr.. Cooper was born in Dublin,
Wayne county, Indiana, August 6,
1858. living in that vicinity until he
was fifteen years old. He graduated
from the high school in Richmond in
1873, attended Otterbein university
for year, then entered the military
academy at PeekshiIl, N. Y, from
which he graduated in 1877 at the
head of his class. For two years
thereafter he studied law in Rich
mond, Ind, with William A. Peele, a
former lieutenant governor of that
state, then came west on the advise
of physicians, by reason of impaired
health. He spent year or so in
Colorado, returned to his home in
Indiana, and in 1880, still being in
poor health, he went to California.
Here, with plenty of outdoor life on
the range and brief residences in
various coast cities his health was
fully restored. After another visit
to the old home he returned to Cali
fornia and engaged in newspaper
work until 1891, when he came to
Arizona.
His Arizona record began in Mo-
have county, then in Phoenix, where
he was engaged as a printer for
short time, going from Phoenix to
Florence, Pinal county, where he
bought the Florence Tribune. During
his newspaper work he had continued
his study of the law and in 1894 he
was admitted to the bar in Florence.
Since then he has been admitted to
practice in the higher courts of both
Arizona and California. Selling the
Tribune he moved to Tucson, where
he was engaged first in newspaper
work, then as a court stenographer
and attorney, until 1898, when he was
elected district attorney of Pima
county on the republican ticket, be-
ing honored by a reelection to that
office for a second term.
MIR. Cooper was married during his
residence in Florence and has several
children. Fraternally he is a member
of the Elks, Foresters, Knights of
Pythias, A. o. U. w. and Spanish
American Alliance. His services
have always been freely given to the
party and in its organization he has
been tireless worker. He has
served as secretary of the Pinal
county central committee. as a men,
Der of the territorial committee and
has also served the territory as secre-
tary of the board of equalization.
The press confidently expects to
chronicle his election as delegate to
the national house of representatives.

From all indications the Repub-

be held in Tonopah on Tuesday,
September 4th, will be one of the
largest and most enthusiastic con-
ventions ever held in the State.
Application has been made to
all the railroads in Nevada for
half rates for delegates. 1t has
been the custom of the railroads to
make this concession. Reports
from Tonopah are to the effect
that the people there will give the
delegates a most hospitable greet
ing and will provide entertainment
for them. The primary elections
will take place on August 18th.

ming.

Ghat there will be something
doing at Golconda again, and that
very soon, is the general opinion
at Golconda. The belief that the
Glasgow and Western Company is
planning for the resumption of
operations at its big milling plant
there was confirmed by the arrival
at Golconda Tuesday of Otto
Stahlman and Joe Farren, officials
of the company, from Salt Lake.
They were accompanied by Mr..
Burke, contractor, who inspected
the mill and smelter for the pur-
pose, it is reliably stated, of max
ing necessary repairs on the plant.
Though the officials would make
no definite statement, it is under
stood that the plant is to be re-
paired and remodeled under Mr..
Burke's direction and started up
on ore from the Adelaide mine,
fourteen miles south of Golconda,
belonging to the company. A
large amount of ore is on the
dumps or blocked out in the mine.
This big property has been prac-
tically closed down for several
years and the resumption of op-
erations, rs now seems probable,
means great things in the way of
a business revival at Golconda.-
