Shot From Her Horse.

On Friday afternoon of last week
a Mexican known as Duran and per-
hapssone of the toughest propositions
in this section, added another crime
to his history when he shot and killed
a Mexican woman named Trim Mo-
reno. Trim was a resident of New
Town, and was quite familiar with
Duran, but they quarreled Il short
time ago and the woman made up
her mind to go to Metcalf. She and
two other Mexican women started
alone on horseback for Metcalf, but
they were met by Duran, who opened
fire on TRIM. He first shot the horse
and then killed the woman. Officers
were soon on his trail, but up to the
present time he has not been cap
tured. He is an old acquaintance at
the county Jail and the chances are
that he will not leave the Jail alive if
he is caught this time.

No Excursion This Year.

There has been considerable talk
among Clifton people as to the an
nual cheap rate excursion which
usually takes place in August be-
tween Clifton and San Diego.
The annual excursion has been well
patronized by the people of this dis
trict. many of whom put off other
trips in order to take advantage of
the $3.50 rate. On account of the
interstate commerce commission, the
railroads cannot make the CHEAP
rate unless it is made for the season
and this the railroads cannot do.
The cheapest round trip rate this
season is S47 from Clifton to San
Diego and from Clifton to Los An
geles and other beach points S45.15
These rates can be secured or
Tuesdays. Thursdays and Saturday:
during the months of July, August
and September and are limited unit
November Both.
These facts were obtained from re
liable authority and are correct.

A. c. SmeIter Tied Up.

On last Monday evening about 40
men employed in the smelling de-
partment of the A. c. company went
on strike for a fifty-cent increase
in wages, which was refused by the
company, with the result that the
smelter has been closed ever since.
Those interested in the demand are
the feeders, tappers- wheelers and
swimmers and comparatively all of
them are MeXicans. The wages they
have been receiving range from 81
to So % per day of eight hours.
The petition was put in twenty
four hours ahead and when the
answer came from the company that
it could not consider an increase, all
men refused to work and went home.
Since then the smelter has been on a
standstill. 1t has not been so very
long ago since these men were given
eight hours, with the exception of
feeders, who have had short hours for
some time. The men consider that
they are not paid enough.
The company announces firmly that
it cannot meet the demand, while the
men stand pat and say that they will
leave the camp before they will go
back to work at the old scale. So far
very few of the men have drawn
their time and their conduct has been
of the very best. There appears to
be some chance for a compromise in
the near future.
During the shutdown the company
is taking advantage of the opportun-
ity to do some needed repair work,
which can only be done when the
smelter is closed down. This work
occurs annually and requires month
NJ ii lrc hi o
possibly be settled long before.
The Mexicans as a rule receive as
good wages here as in other Ari-
IONA camps, and much better than
in their own country. What the
outcome will be is hard to say, but
there are numerous reports in cir
culation, the most of which are with
out foundation.
The cOnCentratOrs, mines and other
parts of the works are running full
blast and when the smelter is blown
in again there will be something do
ing. At present the situation is not
at all serious.
1t was at first surmised that Little,
the organizer who has spent much
time in this district, had something
to do with the strike, but an incident
took place Tuesday evening that does
not make it appear that way. The
Mexicans, among whom are some who
have worked in this district for years,
called meeting Tuesday evening to
which they invited local officers in
order that they might see that the
meeting was conducted in an orderly
manner. Mr.. Little thought that he
could give them some fatherly advice
and made an effort to attend the
meeting. He attempted to take the
floor, but the chairman asked him TO
shut up and withdraw from the
room. This Mr.. Little refused to do
and he was then approached and as
sisted to the open air. The Mexicans
announced that they knew what they
were doing and considered them
selves capable of conducting their
own business. They are making what
they consider a clean fight and are
not ready to receive informal ion
from outsiders. Outside of the a. c.

The A. & N. M. railway will soon
be one of the best short lines in Ari-
IONA. Some parts of the road is
equipped with light rails, but that
will soon be thing of the past. A
heavy supply of seventy-fve pound
steel rails has arrived and will be
distributed along the line. Between
Guthrie and Duncan a considerable
amount of the road is equipped with
light steel. Several cuts have been
made between these two points,
which makes the roadbed safe from
future floods. When laying of heavy
steel is completed the railroad will
be in better position to handle the
heavy freight trains which now pass
over it.

Karl c. Leebrick, who was princi-
pal of the North Clifton public
school last term and who was elected
by the trustees to succeed himself,
has decided to locate in California
and will not return to Clifton. His
parents have located at Covina, Cal,
and he has accepted the principal
ship of the school at that place. Mr..
Leebrick is young man, but his
services in Clifton as a teacher were
highly satisfactory and he was very
popular with the children. 1t is to
be regretted that he decided to To-
cate elsewhere, but his many friends
here wish for him tie same success
he made in Clifton.

Current rumors from the Globe dis
= trict are to the effect that trouble is
brewing in the ranks of the Western
Federation of Miners at that place.
There are about 1000 workingmen
living in Globe and of that number
all belong to the organization except
about 400. 1t is said that the union
men held a secret consultation to de-
eide what action to take in the mat
ter, but it has not yet been publicly
announced whether strike will take
place or not. 1t seems to be the gen
eral opinion of some people who have
recently visited the camp that the
union men will demand the discharge
of the non-union men, the most of
whom are reported to be Americans.
