FIND DEAD BODY OF UNKNOWN MAN
Tried to Wade the Salt River
 and Was Swept Off His -.~ Feet By the Current

PHOENIX, May IA young man who lives on a ranch in the St. Johns country came into town this morning and reported to Coroner Johnstone that there weS the body of a dead man about fourteen miles southwest Hf the city. in the bed of the Salt river.
 Easterling & Whitney's wagon ac companied by Deputy Sheriff Wayne Davis, was immediately dispatched Co bring back the remains. The young man who made the discovery left with them to guide the party to the spot
 It was suggested that the body might be that of JohnMcFarlanG, wnu is supposed to have drowned in the Verde about six weeks ago, but this theory has nothing to substantiate it. Mcfarland had a full beard. and il was stated by the young man that this man was smooth -haven, so far as he could observe.
 About 1 AS the wagon returned. R NJ. Dawson, the undertaken who wen; along, stated that the body was par. tially dismembered when foupd. The head was lying about two feet to one oAGG anu ali di ils tdu DttiA SOl 1T IOcSS by the coyotes.
 The body was lying on sand bal in the middle of the river. The man had worn only shirt and vest. giving rise to the theory that he had takeI off his clothes to wade the river ana had been swept off his feet ant dOwned
 But little could be told about the mans appearance except that me Hat a reddish mustache and was about five feet eight inches tall. There were no marks of violence. The skull had not been fractured.
 In the pocket of the vest were d cheap silver watch and chain thal may prove a slender clew to the iden tity of the dead man. No letters or papers of any kind were found.

Munoz a short distance outside of the city and assaulted in a most brutal manner. from the effects of which he is still confined in the hospital at Cliff ton. The robbers relieved him of his watch, which was expensive, a small amount of money, and whatever else he had on his person. The rangers were notified, and immediately took up the trail of the MeXicans, whose reputatiOns had been unsavory before that time, but who were never def nitely connected with 8 crime untiI this instance. On account of the secretiye nature of the foreigners the task or tiacms the men was especially difficult. but IS Thompson was detailed especially to the case he was per-istenC in
 efforts, finally tracing his men into NacoZari, where he went on May D, and swore to complaint charging them with the crime. They were arrested and placed in jail, and Thompson at once commenced pro- ceedings to get them eXtradited. On account of the delays time was nee essary, but the officer was informed by the cOmmissaTio at Nacozari that the men could not be held longer than 12 o'clock midnight tonight, which time was entirely inadequate, and Thompson was forced to report the circumstances which allow these desperadoes to elude the officers.
 There has been movement On foot to make the extradition of a Mexican to the United States to stand trial for his crimes an easier procedure, and it seems certain that this matter will be arranged within a short time

labor supply is nearer at hand, but it seems to me that the figures 1 have given show that the request of the steam shovelmen that their wages be increased over the present liberal standard is not reasonable. and that if these demands be yielded to for fear of their withdrawal from the service. a precedent would be set in the end which would work much more injury to the work than the embarrassment that might arise now from their with drawal
 "Tho increases asked for were as follows: Engineers from S21O to $500 3 month; cranemen frC.n SlS5 to S250 a month; firemen from SS3.33 to $110 q month.
 T have reached the conclusion, ' continues NIT. Taft, that the existing standard of pay for the shovel engin- eers and for the cranemen is a liberal one. and ought not to be increased ex- cept under some provision of reason able increase applicable to all veteran skilled employees of the commission who are paid by class rates. As al- ready seen, the rates paid to the , tsthnian shovel engineers are certain ly from 9 to B per cent higher than the average of those paid in the states and this by no means states all the differences in favor of the Isthmian terms of employment"
 Secretary Taft approves as "a wise compromise" a suggestion by Colonel Goethals that the overtime should be added to the six weeks with pay to which each employe is entitled each year.

Also I anticipate hat if the Sal
ton Sea is retained, climatic condi-
tions in the west and southwest
will experience great if not wonder
full changes; and if such changes do
result, l apprehcnd that they are
brought about, not entirely alone
because of fresh water evaporation
from the new lake, but also and
very considerably because of the at
tcndant chlorine evaporation, that
has its source in the immense salt
beds at the bottom of the new sea.
To achieve similar results Though
as far as know an unrccognizcd
fact) is one of the purposes of the
sadness of the ocean; that is, that
the evaporation of chlorine assists
in producing rains; and, again,
another purpose is that the cvapo-
ration of chlorine from the ocean
provides the chlorine constituent of
the ozone of the air.

anticipate that the permanent
preservation of the Salton Sea
would reclaim. the arid waste and
make the desert to blossom as the
rose; prevent and do away with the
shot Winds that sweep up from
New Mexico across western Kansas
and up into Nebraska, destroying
millions of dollars worth of crops,
save the government millions of
dollars that would otherwise be
necessary for irrigation projects,
which produce only small local re-
suits at great cost in comparison
with the extensive benefits which
might possibly be permanently Sc
cured without cost and without at
tention by the retention of the new
sea.
There seems to be a chance for
realization of anticipated hopes,
and the matter may be worthy of
serious consideration, as with suf-
ficient rainfall the section now
kno wn as the arid southwest would
develop into the most wonderfully
fertile region of the entire coun-
ry.-Correspondent in Scientific

SENATOR HEPBURN
OPPOSES PRIMARY LAW
Naturally Don't Approve it Because the
Democratic Platform Declares
for it.

sponsiblc for the election at the
polls where the electors and the
candidates are alike responsible
under the law. l am in favor of a
primary election law that shall in
sure primary elections of all parties
against interference at the hands of
those outside the party holding
the primary election may repre-
sent the will of the party holding
it, an that it shall afford every per-
son of the political faith which it
represents an opportunity of express
sing their opinion and have their
will recorded and made effective.
But there is no more relation be-
tween ''dircct primary law and
primary election law, such as
have just referred to, than there is
between government without prin-
ciplc and one based upon political
principles.
-sT sound this note of warning at
this time in order that the people
and the legislature of Idaho may not
be led by these spccious promises
and declarations into cnacting law
that would be disastrous to the re-
publican party and to good govern
mcnt.
The effect that this change of
political government would have
upon the political fortunes of any
individual, now or hereafter, in no
way enters into the consideration of
this question. discuss it from
the standpoint of republican, with
perfect fcarlcssncss as to any result
which it may have on my own po-
litical destiny. 1 am not speaking
for myself but for the principles of
the republican party.
1.-THE platform of the republican
party adopted at its last state con-
vcntion in Idaho does not stand for
direct primaries but expresses
itself in favor of a primary election
law for the protection of the pri-
maries of the respective parties
from interference at the hands OF
those outside of the party. The
democratic party platform does de-
clare in favor of a direct primary.
They are anxious to eliminate the
republican platform and the decla.
rations of the principles and achieve
ments of the party from the cam
psign. Then they could conduct Z
campaign of attacks on individual:
and upon irresponsible declaration:
and promises.

SHEEP TRAILS ESTABLISHED
FOR SAWTOOTH RESERVATION

The advisory boards of the south
eastern part of the old Sawtooth
forest reserve and of the newly Gre
ated addition to the Sawtooth re-
serve met Supervisor Fem by ap-
pointmcnt and determined a system
of trails and holding grounds with
in the newly created addition. Per-
manent trails and holding grounds
were established.
This important feature of reserve
administration, having been very
satisfactorily and amicably adjus-
ted, the matter of future range al
lotments will be comparatively
easy.
Considerable difference of opin-
ion was developed as to the advis-
ability of allotting individual
ranges in the new addition to the
Sawtooth reserve and the final de-
termination was postponed until the
meeting of the Wool Growers asso-
citation on January IA at Boise when
the subject will be threshed out.
The members of the board of the
old Sawtooth reserve present were
L. L. Ormsby and o. F. Bacon, of
Boies, c. E. Pittner, of Hagerman,
Casper Helm, of Mountain Home,
and Thomas Mcmillan, of Mayfield.
The members of the board for the
new addition present were Fred w.
Gooding and Benjamin Darrah, of
Shoshone. Mr.. Laidlaw, member
of the latter board, was the only
member unable to be present.
Aside from the members of the
boards the following sheep men
who are intensely interested in the
questions under discussion were
present: L. S. Vader, c. A.
Owens and A. d. Watson (repre-
senting Barlow Ferguson) of Hager-
man, Dan Lattimer, of Mayfield,

SALT0N SEA CHANGING
CLIMATE OF SOUTHWEST

Conditions and circumstances con-
nected with the flow of the Colora-
do river into what is known as the
Salton Sink have occasioned ccnsid-
cradle comment in various publica-
tions; and since the strenuous eff
forts of government and railroad
engineers to divert the river back
into its original channel have sue
ceedei, it has been advocated that
means should be taken to retain the
new sea in approximately its pres
ent dimensions, the argument be-
ing advacned that evaporation from
this new body of water has caused
rains the past season in sections
of the southwest where like pre-
cipitation has been almost wholly if
not entirely unknown before. In
opposition to this it is contended
that the unusual rains have been
merely coincident, without being
caused either directly or indirectly
by the nev lake.
! When considered with more than
passing notice, and contemplated
i from the standpoint that from &
seemingly not greatly important in
cident might come results of un-
thought-of beneficent effect to {
very great part of the whole coun-
try, and when such effect really
seems developing, then the matter
becomes an interesting one, and is
apt to attract the attention of any
one who looks forward to future
eventualities, as we'll as to the frs
visible results. am of the
opinion that those who contend foi
the permanent retention of tn,
Salton Sea are correct in their con
illusions that the new sea ha:
caused and indicates decided mod
ification in climate; and the un
usual rains in the west and south
west, especially in the latter sec
ton, the past season may only hav,
been an indication of what is I,

AokI HOLDS ON
Japanese Ambassador at Washington
VIII Not Be Recalled.

Washington, June 22.-The formal
announcement by Viscount Hayashi,
the Japanese minister for foreign af-
fairs, in a Toxic dispatch published to-
day that Ambassador Aok is to be
retained at Washington is regarded
here as clearly establishing the fact
that the present japanese ministry,
headed by Marquis Saionij, has assur-
ed itself of the support of both the
Unionist and Conservative parties in
its present attitude toward America.
The announcement made from Toxic
relative to Ambassador Aokis tenure
is regarded as convincing evidence
that Count Okuma's onslaught has
failed and that the settled policy Of
japan from now on will be to dis
countenance lingo" agitation, as d.
rected against America, and to en-
deavor to strengthen the friendly rela-
tons between the two countries.

five miles from where she entered the

and as she was dragged dripping from
the river Professor Muegge of the

hand, saying:
well done; you can surely go ten
miles the next time"
The swimmer was Mrs. Lima Bran

seven years has developed into one of
the most expert swimmers of the west
She is training for the ten mile Mara

her.

Il was somewhat shocked at the
suggestion. for it seemed absurd for a
woman Of ffty-two years to begin
swimming. Now | think the sport is
the grandest in the world. l feel years
