The Photographer Advi.e..

A photographer suggests that when
having a photograph taken the lady
dress her hair in becoming fashion
without regard to the latest mode,
which will certainly change and make
the picture look old fashioned, while a
becoming style will not. Do not wear
new dress, and only young people
should be photographed in white.

Kitchen Scissors.

A kitchen convenience which is not
present in every household is pair Of
sharp scissors. Scissors are used to
trim lamp wicks, which is wrong, and
to cut papers and string, but seldom for
trimming bacon and ham rinds, skin
ming parts of fowls which need skin
ming and trimming salads. These are
proper uses for scissors, and the use of
them saves much labor.

 three times through the House of Rer- resenta,iyes. twice Democratic and
 once Republican. and in a Republican House having the support of several Members of the Territorial Committee, we have succeeded in passing bills for the creation of separate States out |of New Mexico and Arizona. Born somewhere of & parentage of which lit should be ashamed, bill was brought into this House absolutely closing the mouth of every man iE Arizona. a country for which those pioneers for forty-fiye years had fought, and alas, too many of them cied. Arizona was to be put at the mercy of New Mexico, and under the
 bill reported to this House we were to
 bold a constitutional convention, com posed of delegates from each Terri tory. Whether we wanted it or not
 we were to form a constitution and submit iS to the people, both Terri tories voting as one on its adoption,
 and there should be a nomination of State officers and of the legislature, which should elect Senators. and in
 that we were to vote as unit, and If every man in Arizona had voted against it, we would have been com peiled to submit, provided two-thirds of the other Territory wanted it. Against that we on the Democratic side have stood as one man; and. thank God, there was also a united, though small, band of Republicans alleged insurgents of today-the pa triots of tomorrow-by their patriotic resistence of all blandishments called the attention of the world to the out rage that this House was attempting to perpetrate against the unoffending

 ! The less said about the way this original bill has been pressed the bet ter for the history of this Congress, and I refrain from going into that part Of il. There is a law in Arizona that if one legislator trades with another on the legislation before that body he [ is guilty of a very high misdemeanor, and if the governor shall attempt in 1 that benighted land to influence legis- ] lation by promises of veto or the with holding Of veto to secure other legis- lation he goes 10 the penitentiary ur- , der the laws of that land.
 l congratulate my people. and in their name I thank this side of the House, and dOubly in their name do I thank that brave, honest, and in curruptiblc band of Republican 'insur- gents" who, by exercise of justice in Statesmanship, have shed glory on i their names and gratified the honest i constituency who gave themNheir high lplace in this august body. When 1 consider all that beset our path in this 1 long and cruel fight. I congratulate Arizona that she at least shall say ] whether she will or will not be forced into an obnoxious union. For this we l fought, and the battle has been won.
 At the next session of this Congress,
 when the returns from that election
 shall be known, We will hear no more
 Of jcint statehood for these Territories.
 The five million bribe put in this bill
 will not seduce the manhood of our l lrNnDn1a 1hnir Jtrfx- fn fhniv | try. as it will show at the coming cleo ton by such a majority that this mon strous wrong will never again be at tempted on the floor of this House. tApplause on the Democratic side.} i Mir. Cannon. NIT. Speaker

The old-timer now can get up any morning before day and after a short walk down past the Calumet and Pittsburg, leaving Don Luis a little to his right, will find himself amid scenes which recall to his recollection the old days spent down on the farm.
 The possibilities of the so-called arid land of the west was never better ex- emplified than by the results being ob- tained, and already obtained. on the Warren ranch, located about four miles from Bisbee, just outside of the proven mineral zone. It was in May 1905 that the first work was done and during the present month a 400-acre barley crop is being harv ested which is yielding thirtyIfive bushels to the acre. The estimated value of the barley crop on the Warren ranch this year would be s16,000.
 The land is irrigated by water pump. ed from the various shafts of the Bo. nanZa Circle and the Copper Queen company, the Calumet & Pittsburg Junction, l.. S. & P. and Oliver fur. nishing the biggest supply.
 An agreement was entered into be, tween the Warren Ranch company and the LlllHiLS COIupdnleS "neTeDy the water is obtained free of cost provided the ranch fumes the water from the several shafts to a point where all danger from seepage again into the mine is overcome. It didn't take H. A. Smith and H. B. Hovland long to see the possibilities in a farming way on the flats below Don Luis and they set about acquiring the hundred acres of jack rabbit" mining claims that had been located in that vicinity. Some were bought outright, others were located, later homestead entry was made, until altogether about five thousand acres has been secured. Then followed the formation of the company along established bonanza lines, with the exception that the stockholders in the Warren ranch enterprise are con- paratively few. Tom Cole, Tom Col lins, James Hoatson, H. B. Hoviand, H. A. Smith are the largest stockholders, and no less than $1O0,000 has already

been expended in bringing TOO acres under cultivation.
 The grain crop, at present being har- vested. consists of 400 acres in barley. 14e acres in oats, and few acres in wheat and rye. The barley crop Is fully up to expectations and the grain compares fayorably with any shipped into this section. The oat crop is exceptionally fine and demonstrates that the land is peculiarly adapted to raising oats. Some of the oats heads measure between nine and twelve inches in length.
 The work of threshing the grain crop was begun this week. The header is in the fields and as soon as the grain is cut it is being put through the thresher. Five hundred sacks have already been threshed. |,
 Besides the grain crop, 40 acres are in alfalfa. One cutting has already been made this year and next week the sec ond crop will be cut. The first crop was not up to expectations on account of a scarcity of water supply, the ground becoming hard and baked in places. The present water supply is abundant and the second crop should five a normal yield to the acre.
 G. Michner is now in charge of the work at the Warren ranch and prep arations are being made to double the acreage under cultivation next year.
 The dairy department at the War ren ranch has relieved long felt want. SiXty-five fine Hollstein cows are being milked at present and the dairy is as neat as a pin, insuring good, wholesome, clean milk and cream to every customer.

The conference report on the Hamil- Von jcinJ Statehood bill was sent to the House on the following day. The re port was called up by Mir. Hamilton, of Michigan.

 Mir. Moon of Tennessee: MT. Speak CT, the controversy between the two parties in this House on the admission Of the Territories of Arizona and New Mexico and Oklahoma and Indian Ter rifory as States has been very intense for some years past. The Democrat ic party, or it's representatives in this body. have felt that it was to the in Terest of all the people of the United States that the balance of power in this government between the sections should be preserved in the Federal Senate by the admission of four States, and have opposed the consolidation of these four Territories into two States. But in the consideration of the case of Oklahoma and Indian Territory, We were confronted with the principle that has always been sacred to the Democratic party-the demand of the people of these two Territories for joint statehood Yielding our own views in order that the voice of the people might be obeyed. the minority of. the Committee on Territories read fly acceded to the proposition of the majority for the union of Oklahoma and the Indian Territory. For the very same reasons that agreed to the union of these two Territories, we have opposed the union of Arizona and New Mexico, because 1t was ap- parent to us that the people of those Territories did not desire union. and we felt that 1t was against the prin- scipies of good government, against the cherished theories of both parties, ste force an unwelcome union upon these two Territories. tApplause.) We yield to the will of the people in both instances and sustain the principles of free institutions. We saw this House by a large majority vote us down, as the majority of the committee had sdone. Again, in conference, after the .biIl came from the Senate. We saw the contention of the House sustained by Q majority of the conferees, and then Ar. Speaker, we witnessed that which seldom has occurred in this or any other body.
 The reports that had been made to the two Houses by the majority of the managers of both Houses were quietly withdrawn from the two bodies, and again the matter went into conference In the meantime there had been con suitation on the part of the Republi- can majority of the House and Senate on the situation. The result at the next meeting was the agreement to the report that Is now before the House for consideration-a unanimous agree Inent. Strange to say, il embodies the

ROY CONSOLIDATED.

The Roy Consolidated company is getting ready to resume operations on the Roy mine, which is located near the Tigre. This mine has been prac- tically idle for the past year. Recent ly cyanide plant was shipped to Yza- bel, the railroad station for the prop erty, and this is to be taken to the mine and installed in the near future. The Roy made wonderfully rich showing during the first year of its operation, yielding sufficient market able ore to pay all operating expenses and pay the purchase price of the property, which amounted to some thing like s60,000.
