The Price of Lumber
 Is Big Mining Item

The min camps of the southwest secure practically all of their iuub.r from east Texas and Louisiana Since the shortage some lumber has been secured from California. Within a year Mexico will become a potent fsc- tor and will eventually secure the leading position in our market. Tn present duty on lumber averages about $2.50 thousand feet.
 The eighteen coa mines of New Mexico in 1905. according to the de psrtment of commerce and labor, had 46O, 900 cubic feet of round timber costing them on an average of l0l cents e GU ic foot, and .023 900 board fec. of sawed timb r, costing then [ 3 per thousand feet The l39 pre- cious mines of Arizona had l,045 ,00' cubic feet of round timber at 10 cent per cube foot and 40 49s, co, boart feet of sawed lumber casting $23 pe thousand feet. In 1905 the timber il the mines of Arizona "ss valued a Si.O94, ,OO0. Though Arizona rank third in valuation of timber in mine, she consumes relatively less than tn other states, the high price that sh pay. for her timber making her va'u \
 aiio higher.

The Passing of the
 Arizona Gambler

The wave of reform that has taken
 possession of Arizona pot into efiec, a
 wholesome law when at l2 o'clock lasi
 night all gambling in the territory
 ceased and the knight of the green
 cloth bowed to the inevitable an
 gracefully acquiesced in the provis-
 ions of the statutes as made and pro
 yided whereby he passes from puuli :
 view. But he will not be forgotten
 nor will he be maligned. The west
 ern gambler is easily distinguished
 from he of the east. The western man
 assisted in the upbuilding of his coun-
 try; he reared family, contribu ted
 to the maintenance of public schools, encouraged Christian work, and vas often sent to our legislative halls to enact laws that would be beneficial to the public. Since Tombstone's incep. ton the most noted sporting men of the United States came and went and returned; this was . yeriIsble mecca for them. They prospered and. lent valuable aid in opening up the coun- try; in wresting the land from say agery and subduing that element of whites who made unenviable history for Arizona. True, he often used his "trusty gup," and to his unerring aim may be attributed the noticeable sb- sence of the "bad man" who, a quar- ter of a century ago, essayed to run the country according to his own hiking, regardless of what other poo pie thought But conditions have hanged; the undesirable element has crossed the range;" his field of car mage has been converted into an en- pire, of whose possibilities the most cannot conceive-and now the gambler is told to "move on." Ina: the suppression of gambling is but correct all readily concede, those directly affected agreeing with the lawmakers The mbler goes, and wherever his wanderings may take i him, and in whatever business he may | engage, the PRosPEcToR hopes fortune may crown his efforts. Between man md man he has been honorable; he | mas been generous without o,tenta- non; he never turned deaf to an ap- peal tor help. Let us think gener ously of him and wish him vel

Legal Aspect
 of Liquor Law

At Phoenix as well as Tn Cochise county the question has sen whether the present saloon licenses paid for until April 30 is in conflict with the law compelling payment in advance of S300 beginning April lst, and whether or not those who had paid for licenses beyond that time could not continue to make use of them. They assume that the licenses held by them is Tn the nature of contracts with the te ritory and that they could not be abrogated before the time of their expiration.
 District Attorney Bullsrd, of Mari copa county, submitted an opinion to Sheriff Hayden in which he took the ground that all license, previously issued would expire by the operation of the new law, bat that the board of supervisors had power to rebate the holders for the rest of the period fo,
 which the licenses were issued. It i: the theory of the district attorney that a license is not a contract, but 6 permit, which may be revoked at any time for cause. There can be no nor, | forcible cause than an act of the legis | 'ature

In Bottom of the
 Murky Colorado

Undoubtedly the first diver who has searched among the muddy Colo- rado waters for lost material was em- ployed by the Quartz King mining company, about six weeks ago. Ma chinery belonging to the company was being shipped to the Quartz King landing from Needles, when the boat ran onto a sand-bar near Mohave Rock and damaged the boat to the extent that all the machinery found it's way to the bottom of the Colorado. A diver was sent for, and for two days he searched the sands of the river bottom for the small pieces of ma chinery, until all were recovered.

PeddIer's License
 Is Abolished

There is more than & suspicion that the legislature did an astounding thing that it didn't intend to do-abol- ished the peddler's license law, which 1t thought it was making SO rigid as to prohib peddling entirely. The new liquor licen-e law repeal. paragraphs 2s57. 1858, 2s59 and 2s60 of the civil code. The first three of those para graphs have to do only with the re- tail selling of liquor, Paragraph 2s60, the only one in the code relating to peddling, is as follows:
 Every travelling merchant, hawker or peddler who shsll carry a pack and vend wares, goods or merchandise of any kind, shall pay q license tax of seven.y-five dollars quarter and every travelling merchant, hawker or peddler who shall drive or use a wagon or cause to be driven . wagon for the purpose of vending wines or spirituous liquors, goods or merchandise shall pay license of $l0o . quarter. The license shall be collected in every county where it is taken out: Pro- vided, That nothing in this act shall be construed to apply to the sale oi farm products"
 On the face of things it now appear: that any man may engage in the brsi ness of peddling without the payment of any license at all if he keeps out side the limits of in incorporated towns and inside of them he will have to pay only 6 city license.

Hanging on the wall in the commits
sioners' room at the court house is
an cid sabre that deserves a place in
the county's historical exhibit should
such thing ever be established. The
weapon, according to the traditions of
the court house, was formerly the
property of Captain Martin, Umatilla
county pioneer, sheriff and county
judge. AS the captain was the Judge
at the time the court house was erect
ed it is probable that the old sabre
has adorned the building during the
entire 20 years thes temple of justice
has been standing.
Just how the sabre became a fix
ture of the building Is not known.
There is a legend to the effect that 1t
was taken there in the early days for
use in the event of an Indian upris-
ing. Others of more prosaic natures
declare it was used by the pioneer
county judge for cutting down the
bills presented by the road supervis-
ors and other employees of that time.
some taxpayers would like to see the
sabre again brought into use.
For many years the old weapon has
been locked securely in the treasurer's
vault and County Treasurer Bradley
insists that he is still the custodian
of the relic, 1t being allowed to hang
in the commissioners room only tenn
porarily. This morning while the sub
ject wac under discussion NJ. J. Car
nev dropped into the office.
''It was probably used by Captain
Martin in some of the Indian wars.
said he, "for 1 think that is where
he got the title of captain. He wa.
sheriff of the county from 80 unit
80, when he was elected Judge ant
served several terms"
At present the sabre hangs from &

SURVEYED NEW TOWN.
Opposite Umatilla, Now on
the Map,

The new town of Plymouth, on the
north bank of the Columbia river,
north of Umatilla, is now officially
plated and recorded, Geary Kim
brell Of this city, having just returned
from surveying the townsite.
Mr.. Kimbrell was employed by the
townsite company for several days in
surveying and plating the town, and
1t is now ready for settlers.
One hundred acres was laid out IN
the site and is favorably situated for
the location of town. 1t lies almost
directly across the Columbia river
from Umatilla, and is connected with
the oregon town by ferry.
At present 1t has no settlers except
camp of railroad graders, and one
farmer, but It is hoped to build up a
good town there after the north bank
road is completed. A larger ferry
boat will be installed on the river and
several business enterprises are al
ready contemplated. 1t is hoped to
make 1t the trading point for several
new settlements in that portion OF
Klickitat county.
