Australia las a peculiar law as to the death penalty. Generally a pre- meditated murder is punished with death, but in cases where between the time of the murder and the arrest the prisoner has been punished for some other crime a sentence of death cannot be passed upon him. In a recent case q murderer had served a weeks inn prisonment for petty theft before his arrest for the murder, and that saved his neck. His sentence was 20 years

THE DOUGLAS SHELTERS
 LARGE COPPER OUTPUT

At the Copper Queen shelter the production for March will be a record breaker, says the Bisbee Review. This plant is being gradually increased in capacity and from seven furnaces are now turning out copper at the rate of 40 tons per day, which will give an output for March of about 8, 750, ,00O pounds per month. During the last several months the output of the Cop. per Queen has been in the neighbor- hood of 2, 300, 900 pounds, as it has al- ways been observed that the manage ment preferred to make their estimates low rather than high. The enlarge ment of the Copper Queen plant is pro- ceeding steadily, and the furnaces already definitely planned to be installed as fast as possible will add an addi- tional capacity of eight hundred tons monthly before the end of the year.
 At the c. & A. shelter production continues at about the same rate as had been given out since the installa- tion of furnace No. 2. It is expected that March will go over the average production of last month, which was a little short of 4,0O0, 900 pounds. Work is proceeding well on furnace No. 4, and it is expected that it will be ready to put in commission about the first of May. The grade of ore being treated by the Calumet & Arizona is under stood to be considerable higher than that fed to the furnaces of the Copper Queen, which accounts for the greater production of the furnaces in propor- tion to the capacity of the furnaces employed.

The Bisbee Daily Review has en- 'arged to a seven-column quarto size, a new two-cylinder Hoe press and two new linotype machines have been in- stalled and its telegraphic service has been greatly increased, making it easily one of the very best daily newspapers published in the southwest. The Sun day issue of the Review is of twenty pages and beside the telegraphic and local news contains a full report of mining operations in the Warren dis trict and summary of mining news from other districts in Arizona.
 We congratulate you, Brother Kelly, on the splendid success you have achieved and hope the Review will continue to grow and prosper.

STATEHOOD BILL WILL
 SOON BE DISPOSED OF

Capt. J. l.. B. Alexander, United States attorney for Arizona, returned to Phoenix last Saturday from Wash ing, D. C., where he had ben for the past two weeks on business in connec- tion with his official duties, says the Republican. Most of his time was spent in conference with the attorney general on various matters which will develop in the territory during the ensuing months. With his other duties, however, Capt. Alexander found time to spend some time assisting in the fight against joint statehood.
 The fight at present is being carried on to secure change in the Foraker amendment so that the voting in this territory will be done at the same time there is an election for the state off, cers. It is more than probable that at an early date the conference committee will report the bill with the Burrows amendment eliminated ard the Foraker amendment conceded by the committee from the house.

'TWOUlD BE A MISTAKE

We understand that it is the inten- tion of the board of supervisors, advised by the acting district attorney, to lave unpatented mines listed for taxation. We think the advice is bad and that the board will make a grave mistake if they follow it. Perhaps they are not aware that the assessors from many of the counties of Arizona met in Phoenix several months ago and decided not to list unpatented mines for taxation. How would it look for Gila, one of the foremost mining coun- ties in the territory, to attempt to hold-up the owners of unpatented min ing claims when the injustice of it is recognized by so many of the other counties?
 Whether the taxing of unpatented mining claims is good law, we are not advised, but it is certainly not good sense and is condemned by public opin- ion in Arizona; and no statute or court edict can long stand against an adverse public opinion.
 Mining is the source of most of the wealth in Arizona today; it is the main spring of all our business activity. When mining declines every other in dustry languishes; when it prospers the population grows, cities are built up, and taxable values advance by leaps and bounds.
 To tax unpatented mining claims would be direct blow at the prospector and man of small means who are struggling to develop our mineral resources. The value of a prospect cannot be determined until pay ore is developed in sufficient quantity to make its extrac- tion profitable Then it becomes a mine and machinery and other improve ments are placed upon it which are taxable, and new enterprise is built up that brings added population and business to increase the revenues of the county and territory.
 The cry raised against the mining industry not paying it's just proportion of taxes is the mouthing or the dema- gogue. The mines of Arizona, directly and indirectly, pay two-thirds of the total taxes, and instead of trying to hamper the industry every encourage ment should be offered for its further expansion. The proper method of tax ing mines is by reasonable bullion tax on the gross output, and an effort will probably be made by the next legislature to enact law of that kind.

crats must make a net gain of fifty seven seats in order to secure major ity. This looks like big job, but a more complete revolution than this would be has been accomplished in the past. In the Fiftieth Congress the re- publicans had 166 members and the democrats 159. In the Fifty-first Con- gress the republicans had only eighty eight-a loss of nearly one-half-and the democrats had 236, a gain of seventy-seven. And the change was due mainly to the high tariff - "the shopping women did it, as Mir. Blaine said. The democrats have counted about seventy districts now represented by republicans, in which they believe they have a chance to win.

The postoffice appropriation bill for the year provides for an expenditure of more than SI9l, ,OOO, 900, by all odds the largest single department expense of our government. Last year the cost of the postal service was something short of $l7O, 1000, 900. but of that sum only about Sl5, 900, 900 came out of the general tax levy, the balance being drawn from the various sources of revenue which the department has within itself. It would not be a very difficult task to reform our postal svs- tenn so that, instead of deficit, the department could be run on self supporting basis.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR COPPER

Copper presents very interesting situation in more ways than one. The activities of the men who are laboring to bring control of the copper output into the hands of few, with the in tention eventually to vest it in single corporation of gigantic capitalization, are not less interesting than present and prospective activity in the market for the metal itself. As to the latter phase of the situation, some excellent authorities in the trade say they would not be surprised to see spot copper run up above 20 cents per pound at any time under conditions like those exist ing. Some go so far as to say they expect to see sales of spot copper well up above 20 cents within the next ten days.
 The low stocks of copper in European markets seem to partially explain the falling off of our exports of the metal during the past year, as we'll as the lessening in European consumption, ow- ing to theRusso-Japanese war. Thepros- pect is that European consumption will grow from now on and there is practical certainty of still further increase in the enourmous consumption in this country. This seems guaranteed by the very general arrangements being made by the large railroad systems for the identification of their lines, as in the cases of the New York Central, Pennsylvania, Reading and Illinois Central, and a branching out of the big steam railroads into trolley traction enterprises.
 So that while the price of copper metal seems high, there appears to be an ample basis for further boom of good proportions in the early future, and for the maintenance of excellent prices indefinitely.

Chicago's action in advancing the price of liquor licenses from $500 up to 5000 appears to have had an effect to make the movement quite general in the western cities, and there's pretty general feeling that the saloon-keepers who pay the higher fee will still get their moneys worth.

The population of Canon City is
about 6000. Horticulture is the chief
industry. The land is all irrigated and
cultivation is intense. the farms not
averaging more than four or five acres
in size. This acreage will readily
support family, as every foot is
made to produce something. and every
kind and variety of fruit is raised that
will grow in a temperate climate.
Truck gardening. too, is carried on
quite extensively even in winter. for

Owing to the limited acreage avail
able for irrigation. farm land is quite
expensive as viewed by eastern stand
ards, and ranges from $500 to $1,000
per acre, depending on the location,
age of trees and improvements.
Fruit growing. however, makes an
ideal vocation for the recovered tu-
berculous patient who does not care
to take chances on recurrence by

of those SO engaged came here either
for the benefit OF their own health or

There are, besides, numerous small
