PORTLAND, March 6, 1906.
EDITOR ST. JOHNS REVIEW:
Having secured the diary OF
James St. John several years ago
for the Oregon Historical Society,
through the efforts of the late Hon.
John Catlin, a pioneer of I84S, II
seems peculiarly fitting that il
should now be published for the
first time in the first newspaper es-
tablished in the city of which he
was the founder. For that reason
I have begun copying the diary,
and will send you a few pages each
week until it is all printed. In
this connection permit me to sug-
gest that all persons now interested
in the city OF St. Johns should clip
this diary from time to time as It
appears in your paper, and care.
fully place the same i'll a scrap book
for permanent preservation. In
copying ! have enclosed in brackets
the present names of places, loca-
lities or individuals to which allu-
sion is made, Immediately follow
ing the names used by Mr.. st.
John, in order to make the diary as
interesting as possible. II will also
be observed that have followed
substantially the mode of EXPIRES
sion and spelling given by Mr.. st.
John, but have used marks Of pune
tuation in order to make his mean.
ing clear. GEORGE II. HINES.

sanitary board yesterday morning re- turned from Prescott. where he has been for several days on an offic al visit. Prescott, he says, does not give the appearance at this time of the year of being especially lively but many of the merchants say their trade has been remarkable for summer months which after all is the best way to judge a city's prosperity. Reports from the surrounding inning camps are all encouraging
 FOR POULTRY PEOPLE-A move ment is on foot to bring all in the valley, who expect to have exhibits in the poultry department of the territor- ial fair within the membership of the American Poultry association. The membership fee is ten dollars and it is urged that that amount may be more than saved within a year not only in the business of raising poultry but in the way of making exhibits. The as sociation has for some years issued work called "The Standard of Perfec- tion,' telling all that is known about fine chickens and other fine poultry. The book is the property of the asso- ciation and by means of the sales of it the association is largely kept up. The book gives the rules for scoring and points out the defects in birds which disqualify them for entry. The present issue of the book is illustrated by pie lures from life by Sewell and Burgess of prize winners in the big shows.

NO JOINT STATEHOOD
 FOR P. (. DE IA LAMA
He Denies That He Spoke in Favor f
 It at Silver City, N. fl.

Pedro c. de la Lama denies that he made a joint statehood speech at Sil- yer City or anywhere else or that he was in favor of joitn statehood. He says that on the contrary, he has al ways been opposed to it and in the coming campaign he is going to do what he can against it.
 The denial of Mr de la Lama was called out by statement made by Attorney R. H. Turner of Silver City, that an Arizona Mexican had address ed a body of his countrymen there, urging them to support joint state hood. MT. Turner did not know the name of the orator. but from his de- scription of his personal appearance and his fiery eIoquence it was thought by all to whom he had related the in cident that it must have been MT. de la Lama. This supposition was strenthened by the rumor that some time ago that Mr. de Ia Lama had de- clared for joint statehood.
 Speaking or the report yesterday he said that a great many things had been said against him here for the purpose of injuring him politically and that he had not replied to them He did not care for them but he draws the line at being considered a jo.ntist and desires to be set right.

Costs a little more. but is worth it. The Toric lens is ground with a deep inner curve. which permits of the lens being placed much closer to the eye. Thus the wearer gets a wider range with no perceptibIe edges or annoying rehec- tions.

Why
 It Pays To Trade at Davidson s CASH STORE

First: 1t pays to trade there because their goods will average less in price, considering quality, than in any other store in Arizona.
 Second: Because they keep, under one roof, on the ground level floor (nct down cellar nor uPstairs), the largest assortment of useful articles in Arizona.
 Third: Because you can buy Hard ware, Tools, Woodenware, Crockery, Glassware, Stoneware, Stationery, Toys, Silverware, Fancy China, Thread, Combs, Brushes, Guns, Ammunition, Cutlery, Lamps, Barbwire, Baskets, Tinware, Enameled Ware, Steel Ranges, Oil Stoves, Gasoline Stoves, Tents, Camping Outfits, and thousands of useful articles without having to visit a half dozen stores to supply your wants in these lines.
 Fourth: Because you don't have to pay for the man that don't pay nor pay for the expense of bookkeepers and collectors and interest on capital car ried in book accounts. Try
