FALLs--one day only--TUESDAY JUNE

The Milroy Echo celebrated its
fifth birthday last week. THE GA
zETTE has had occasion before to
express its admiration for Editor
Wilson's good work on the Echo.
Our only suggestion is that Wilson
change the name Of his paper from
the Milroy Echo to the Milroy Mega
phone. There will be real fitness to
that name, for the Echo is shouter
and not an echo.

type. He says don't touch it at all.
You feel better and the letting alone
of the vile stuff saves your money.
Good advice. Frank is one of the

the dam is ITO feet, resting on door

stream side the walls are slopiug,

Despite the fact that Arizona Is
known to the world because of the
vast store-house Nature has mace "a
it for mineral wealth of fabulous
value, there are those who look for
ward with prophetic eve and see the
time when her plains and valleys
shall yield a wealth even greater than
this; for hers is soil needing but
the touch of water to cause it TO yield
in magic profusion every product OF
the garden, orchard and farm. Every
step toward developing tails phase of
the Territory's resources is of psvui

closest attention. Consequently the

largest and most modern dams in the
Southwest by the Bouuillas Land d

kindly disposed to every man and
every creature. Mr.. James halls
from Ohio, and, as he expressed it,
some achieve greatness, some have
greatness thrust upon them, and some
are born in Ohio. He has been an
engineer for many years, and is ia.
miliar with the opening of most of
the mines throughout Arizona, Cali
