Find METEOR IRON

PRESCOTT, Ariz.. Oct. S.-For sew
eral years the Standard Iron company,
a corporation understood to be headed
by Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania,
has been digging in the famous Me
teOr crater, mar the Santa Fe railroad.
east of Flagstaff, in the hope of strik-
ing an asteroid which, ages ago. hit
the earth with such force as TO leave
an open circular valley a half mile in
diameter and hundreds of feet in
depth. All around on the plain have
been picked up tons of meteoTic iron.
1t is far more valuable than ordinary
iron because of the presence of nickel
and other valuable metals. making a
combination strikingly like that of
the best grade of battleship armor
steel
1t is understood that the diggers
have been successful, but the iron
has not been found in a mass, but in
fine powder that has been penetrat-
ed to the depth of eighty feet by
drills SamnleS- haze heen submitted
to government chemists and have
been pronounced true meteoric iron.
There had been speculation concern
ing the manner in which the miners
would handle an iron chunk half a
mile in diameter, but the condition in
which the iron was left by the terrific
impact with the earth has much sim
plifed the proposition.

RANDOLPH GETS LARGE SUM

xnrough the sudden settlement or {
suit in Los Angeles in which Colonel
Epes Randolph and Lycurgus Lindsay,
a prominent Los Angeles mining man,
were the principals, Randolph has re-
ceived a sum from Lindsay which is
between 100000 and 100000, says
the Democrat.
IN addition 10 the settlement OF this
suit there was also a settlement of the
suit which Lindsay brought against
Colonel w. C. Greene for $175,0O0

of the same transaction. These suits
had been instituted in Phoenix, Boston,
Mass, Duluth, Mimi, Tucson, Tomb

four suits pending in the Los Angeles
courts In addition to the suits in
the lower court there was also one

Involved in all these suits were
sums aggregating close to 100000. II
had been expected that there would
be hard legal battle, but the lengthy

ended by the settlement made by
Lindsay. The settlement was made on
Wednesday morning in Los Angeles.
These various suits grew out of the

of the Cananea Central and the
Greene company at Cananea which has
capitalization of S60.000,000.
The litigation that followed the
sale of the Cananea Central was be

was also made a defendant in one
big suit by Linusay. The case was dc

of the dispute between Randolph and

STATE FAIR WAS
 WELL SUPPORTED
Business Men of Little Rock and Hot Springs Furnished Many Exhibits Attendance Was From All
 Over State.

Hot Springs, Oct. 14.-With the close of the fair Saturday night not only a fair next year is certain but it's permanence seems to be assured. It has had strong support from the business men of Hot Springs and Lit tie Rock, from the point of exhibits, and has had the support of every sec tion of the state in point of attend ance. There has been lack of ex- hibits tending to show the vast min
 eral and timber ersources of the state, and there was no educational exhibit this year.
 It is up to farmers, stock raisers, lumbermen, and miners of Arkansas to make the State Fair greater sue cess next year, but there has been no complaint that visitors this year have not secured their moneys worth.

D1rTJES OF A NEWSPAPER.

Speaking of the duties ol he"sp'- pers an exchange says:
 "A man engages in the newspaper business to make living just like any one else in any other business. It IS not the duty of a newspaper man to ferret ont any mean or contemplate act any more than it is the duty or citizen. The citizens of community are responsible for the immortality or a town, for dishonest elections, TOT the breaking of the laws-not the newspaper. How many business men are there in a town who will condemn a wrong doer when they know 1t will iniure them? And yet that's what some persons expect papers to do. The trouble is the so-called honorable peo- ple of a community haven't the moral courage to stand up for the right. A majority of them if they indorse an article condemning the wickedness o1 scion will come around to the editor in private and tell him he has done right, yet when it coWes to talking if on the streets and elsewhere theil nerve fails them, and the editor is left to fight the battle alone. It is the individual and not the newspaper that hasn't moral courage. Newspa' pers reflect the wishes of the people and are the result of existing condi. tions, which must be changed, if at all, by individual effort"

Hot Springs, Oct. 14.-At 8 o'clock last night fire broke out in the dry kiln house of the Arkansas Lumber Company's plant and did $20,000 worth of damage before it was gotten under control two hours later. The origin of the fire is unknown.
 The fire burned with great fierce ness and it was all the fire depart ment could do to handle it. The fire men worked hard and at such close range that two f1remen were over come by smoke and rendered uncon- scious, but were revived later. An other fireman, Roscoe King, was burned but not seriously although he had a narrow escape. His clothes were on fire in several places when, seeing his danger, his comrades turn ed the hose on him and put the fire out

ASTOP MY PAPER"

The Palestine Herald argues upon the foolishness of man stopping ms paper because he finds something III it that doesn't suit him. We have all had our experience in such things. It is true as the Herald states, that the man who orders his paper stopped expects that revolu- tion will follow as a result but the world goes On as if nothing had happened.
 Once upon a time a man told Hor- ace Greeley to stop the Tribune. Greeley said he wouldn't do it; that he owned the paper and it was his business to publish it. The man ex- plained that he didn't expect Greeley would stop publication but that he only wanted his own copy discontln- ned. Then Greeley seemed to get an inkling of what was aimed at and cheerfully compiled with the request, giving the man some healthy advice, AS was his custom on occasions when people disagreed with him.
 Such things only go to show now great some men are in their own estimation. A short time ago the inhabitants of a cross roads village got angry at Chicago for some dis elimination practised upon them by the Windy City and the people Of the cross roads village held a meeting and threatened Chicago with the loss of their trade by way of retaliation for what had been done. This dls- claimer was expected to bring Chicago to it's knees, as it were. If the people np there ever heard of the denuncla- tion against it by the cross roaders they would have no doubt asked themselves where in the whole do main of creation was the aforemen' tioned cross roads. So with the news paper. Some people have an ldes that it is printed for their particular benefit or to fatter their whims ol their vanity at least and whenever il does not conform to their ideas they show their resentment by ordering i stopped and then they quietly read |
