Fire of unknown origin did some
damage at the blacksmith shop of the

1855 a. m. and found the interior of
the place burning wildly, but there
was nothing there that water would
hurt and the fire was literally drowned
in a very short time. The damage will
amount to about $50.

Natives OF That Country Are Catching
The Fever of Enterprise and

Mr. F. j. Hagenbarth, former presi-
dent Of the National Livestock associa-

from Mexico. that the Republic was
being Americanzed very fast by the
steady influx OF American capital, ma
chinery. and push and energy. Even

the live stock interests are In good
condition. He found III Paso rapidly

Mr.. Hagenbarth gave some attention
while In Arizona to the local feeling In
the matter of statehood, and confirms
the reports of the local determination
to remain In a territorial status indeh-
nitely rather than consent to any or

ever, some of the capitalistic classes
favor such union on the ground that ii
