 Bisbee has granted the franchise for the electric car line in that city. It will be remembered that this fran chise was voted down by the people early in the year. After denying the franchise the people quickly saw their mistake and yesterday at the election voted practically unanimous for the franchise The objection to the for mer franchise was that it was not proposed to continue the line up Tomb stone canyon Finally the railroad company agreed to continue the line up this canyon from the business dis triet, provided the city would furnish the rightof-way for the l.ne and this was the basis on which the franchise was granted yesterday.

Queer Weather roreeasuno,

One of the rites performed by the French peasants on New Years eve is the forecasting of the weather for the coming year by means of onions. When the bells ring for midnight mass they scoop out the middles of twelve onions. set them in a row on the kitchen table. i'll them with salt and name them for the months of the year. Then when they return from mass they examine the condition of the salt. If it has melted in any of the months p those months win be rainy; if the salt remains dry, it indicates drought: if half zneiteds the first fortnight of the month will be wet. The peasants have such implicit faith in this means of foreteIling the weather that they plant their crops fin accordance with she prophecy Of the onions.

Lowell, taking in a number of the principal mine shafts of the Warren district It will go into Bisbee over what is known as Naco road.

The fact that it showed in Texas the other day indicates that Texas is not as near to hell as the Rev. Sam Jones was inclined to believe. It win be remembered that when Sam (while preaching at Houston) came in sudden contact with some ancient hen fruit. he casually remarked that Texas was just six inches from hell. At the time there was no one present who cared to debate the matter with him. but this storm has shifted the burden of proof.

The mine owners or the territory EAo are selling their copper for 2s cents per pound are-not the only ones who are enjoying prosperity. We note that the farmers of the Gila valley are now receiving s9 per ton for their hay. Five or six years ago alfalfa hay in this valley rarely sold for more than s6 per ton at this season of the year and often it was sold for s5 per ton. It has been demonstrated that under the irrigating system hay can be pro duced for s5 per ton, after setting aside the tax money on the land and paYing ali. other expenses. This leaves the GiIa county farmer a profit of s4 per ton on his hay crop now, with the assurance that hay will be worth not less than s12 per ton before the years crop is exhausted In the irrigated valleys of Arizona an average of four crops of hay can be cut from alfalfa fields in year The average crop is about one and half tons to the acre or six tons per year Here we have an income on alfalfa land of s54 per acre Indeed it does seem that the farmers of Arizona are enjoying their full share of prosperity. The prosperi- ty of the farmers is found in the fact that the development of the mines of the territory has been so great that the cultivated area of the territory can no longer supply the demand for all manner of farm products.

A LOYAL PRESS.

No state or territory in this coun- try can point to more loyal or ener- getic lot of newspapers than can Ari- zona- Whenever any matter comes up in which Arizona's welfare is involved there is never any division of senti- ment among the newspapers. Each one strives to outdo the other in cham pioning the cause of Arizona and her people whenever an opportunity is of fered. No industry in the territory has ever lacked for publicity through the newspaper columns and no enter prise has ever appeared in any section that it did not receive hearty welcome and support from the press The fol- lowing editorial in the Arizona Demo crat is sample of the kind of boost tug Arizona is receiving daily from the press of the territory;
 There is room and fortunes await ing for one and half millions of peo- pie in Arizona. There is room for 600.000 of these people in the Salt riy- CT valley. in the Parker district, in the Benson district and in the lower Gila valley. and they can all make money farming and in the towns supported by agricultural products: there is room for 10000 of these people in the. mining districts of Arizona, and there is rom for 100000 people in the lum- ber districts of Arizona In fact, there is more lumber in Arizona than there is in Maine and the forests of Maine support a population of one million.
 The resources stipulated above are already visible; they are here for any one to look at who wants to see them. In addition to these resources no bu- man being can tell how many coal mines. how many iron mountains, how many oiI wells, how many woolen and cotton manufactures will be uncovered by the future to run up Arizona's pop uIatien to two million; but that two million mark is a conservative esti- mate no intelligent man will doubt.
 This being the case, what is the matter with organizing a two million population club and working to that end This club should first hunt for capital and after capital is found show it field for investment. Right at present Salt river valley offers a great field for the farmers and the mining country east and west of Piloe- nix offers a great field for miners. and the thiHg to do now is to get down to the business of exploiting these fields. There are also fields to exploit in CO chise county. In Pima county. in GiIa county. and, in fa>t. every county in the territory. By calling great ter riioriai booster convention and invit- ing every county in the territory to come fe Che convention we might start a movement that would soon make AriaI zona famous all over the United State. and Europe. There is nothing like tryisg. It Is sure thing that we win ners- aareiop our resources by sitting hown ana sucking our thumbs"

MISS SUTTON
WON OUT ALONE


NEW YORK, May S.-Lawn tennis play
ers had gala day on the st. Nicholas rink
court yesterday. Miss May G. Sutton par
ticipated in the chief of the contests, and
the California girl indicated the mettle of
her game in SO stirring fashion that the
gallery of fashionable spectators loudly
cheered and applauded her.
Miss Sutton practically won the final of
the mixed doubles alone, although she was
paired with Paulding Fosdick They de-
feated Miss Juliet Adee and C. Frederick
Watson, jr.. after three hard-fought sets
by the score of 63, 81 and rs.
The erratic playing of Fosdick made the
winning of the mixed doubles final task
for the California girl The gallery was
constantly tittering and laughing outright
at the antics of the man. who played for
all he was worth. He seemed to be strung
on wires. and made such bewilderingly alb
surd shots that he nearly swamped his side
with the points lost through his errors.
The summary:
Mixed doubles.-Final round-Miss May

WON AT GOLF

American players, Miss Margaret Curtis
Of Massachusetts and Miss Harriet 8. Curtis.
were successful in the first round Of the fif-
tenth annual tournament for the ladies'
golf championship, which commenced here
yesterday.
Miss Margaret Curtis had to exercise
all her skill, however, to save herself from
defeat at the hands of Miss d. Robertson,
who took her to the twentieth hole before
a decision was reached. At no time was
there a difference Of two holes between
the contestants. Miss Margaret Curtis will
meet Mrs. Crawford Of Cork today, and she
should easily pass into the third round
Miss Harriet 8. Curtis played splendid
game. Her all-around play was the best
Of the day. Her official victory was re-
corded by and 4. She will have hard
game with Miss v. Herbert, who defeated
the Scottish champion. Should she win
there is every likelihood of her getting into
the semi-f1nals.
There were 10 entries. The weather was
dull and threatening.
