AN INDIAN DESCRIPTION
OF AN ELUSIVE METAL
The Best Name WalIapai Jim Could
Think of For Quicksilver.

J. 4. Porterie was yesterday sneak
ing of the nomenclature OF things in
general and he said that the best
names were those given on the spur OF
the moment, being much more signi-
icant and Informative than those APP
piled by scientists. For instance he
said that the best name he haG ever
heard for quicksilver was conferred
upon it by a Wallapai Indian who at
the time was laboring under excite
ment and confusion.
q This christening of mercury took
place at a mill at Signal in Mohave
county several years ago. An Indian
had been hanging about the mill for
several days watching the process of
taking out silver. He asked more
questions about ii than the Indian usu-
ally asks. His attention seemed to be
fixed on flask of quicksilver which
he supposed was a product Of the
ore.
One day when he thought nobody
saw him he reached into the flask,
grabbed a handful of the fluid and
thrust it into the pocket of his trous-
ers. He put the second handful in
when the fireman Who had slipped up
behind him gave him a violent kick.
When the Indian recovered from his
establishment he put his hand into his
pocket to restore the stolen goods but
he was surprised to find nothing there
but his barefoot We're splattered with
the metal. The fireman laughing at
the embarrassment Of the Indian said:
Jim, what you call UNI in Wallapai?'
Jim replied: I'VE call um, no ketch
um."

MtxICO'S RECEPTION
OF SECRETARY ROOT
The Advantage Which Will Accrue to
That Country From Closer Relations
With thu United States.

Tampico, Mex, Oct. 1. Especial
correspondence of The Republican,
The great event in Mexico now is he
visit of Secretary of State Elihu Root,
who is President Diaz' guest. The
president sent a committee of Mexi-
cos distinguished men, Limantour,
Diaz' son and others, across the bor-
der hundreds of miles to San Anto-
Mo Tex, where the International Club
gave a reception. After banquet and
speeches, the committee escorted Mr..
Root to the City OF Mexico, accompa-
MED by the Mexican military band.
This great International Club is head
ed with the names OF President Roose-
Welt and President Diaz and followed
Ola the list by hundreds of prominent
Americans and MeXicans showing the
great friendship Of these two great re-
publics. The speech of Secretary Root
was worthy Of this great man. He
spoke of the close and friendly rela-
ticns of the United States and Mexico.
and said it was the business of the
great northern republic to see that its
sister on the south enjoyed the same
blessings and privileges of its BROTHER
on the north. A fact as all Mexico and
the United States know, when Uncle
Samuel, at the close of the great rebel
lion. told France to withdraw her
troops and control from Mexico where
she had placed MaXimillian on the
throne. making a monarchy of our lit
tie sister, when our hands were tied
in war at home. France soon obeyed
and with Gen. Diaz' great efforts, in
dependence again came to Mexico. Is
il any wonder that Mexico loves us,
that the relations of the two countries
are becoming closer and closer. and
that Mexico is offering every induce
ment and advantage TO the American
investor in her mines, agricultural in
terest and manufactures and that a
thousand million dollars of American
capital is now safely invested here and
life and liberty are safer than in the
United States. Mexico is ahead of US
in some things.
Ambassador Creel, who is soon to be
installed as governor Of Chihuahua,
and is waiting in the City Of Mexico,
TO welcome Secretary Root, has just
made an extensive trip through the
northwestern part of the United States
and into Canada. studying agricultur-
al conditions.
He urges improved methods OF aG-
riculture here; such as characterize the
north Mississippi valley states. in Sc
lection Of seed and building up" and
IN improved culture, as Iowa. Ills. Ind.
and Ohio have as the result Of this at
their experimental stations. doubled

500 Dollars Reward, 500

The readers OF this paper will be pleas
cd to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able TO cure in all its stages. and that
is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrn being con-
stitutional disease. requires a constitu-
uonal treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is
taken internally. acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. thereby destroying the founda-
ton of the disease. and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The nroprietors have SO much
faith in its curative powers that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of
testimonials. Address:

Hose Company Reorganizes.

A meeting was called last Monday
evening at the City Hall for those in
terested in the organization of the
Delta Fire Department and about
twenty new members were added to
the organization. The purpose of the
meeting was to get the department in
better shape as it had somewhat gone
out of business. The following officers
were elected: Jack Gale, chief; James
Beckley, captain of team No. l; j. E.
Shue, captain of team No. 2, and Oliver
Cook, secretary. The new cart makes
it possible for Delta to have two teams.
The department gives ball on Christ
mas night and everyone should do their
best as the proceeds will go into the
fremens' fund.-Laborer.

Coal In Abundance.

No need to worry about fuel famine
in Delta county, for coal in abundance
is had for the mining.
Basted upon the veins already ex-
plotted un-numbered millions of tons
have been estimated, and these are
only the surface measures, upheaved
strata, of the higher mesa sections.
There is little doubt but that almost
If not all of the county is underlain
with valuable coal measures, presum-
ably of better quality even than the
merchantable grades now being mined.
The expense of coal at present to tire
consumer is largely an item of hauling.
the price delivered being about "a per
ton. Many OF the obstacles now in the
way of cheaper coal will be gradually
overcome, 80 there is no good reason
to expect a. hardship in the form of
high priced fuel Besides the citizens
of different parts of the county are
taking steps to guard against just such
an emergency for all time, by securing.
in cooperative way, ownership and
control of valuable coal properties.
The Delta independent., 1907-12-20

is far from true. The land buyer
should use the same care and judgment
in buying land that he would in buyiug
horse or cow.
Land in Delta county ranges in prices
from S25 or $50 an acre up to more
than 81, ZOO per acre. The latter price
simply goes to prove what man can
do with this land by improving it. In
fact we have land which yields $1,000
per acre in a single crop, in fruits,
while in berries an acre has yielded as
much as 81, 500 in single crop.
These are possibly exceptions, but if
We should cut those figures down to
one-third, such land would be intrin-
sically worth 81, 900 per acre. In sugar
beets much of this land is yielding from
500 to $50 per acres crop, and other
products do nearly as well, some better.
Thus it can be seen that there is an
opportunity for men to buy according
to their means. The man with more
wealth may buy improved land at
higher figures and secure at once an in
come in proportion to his investment,
while the one with less money can buy
land which he can. in certain number
of years, make equally valuable and
productive by gradually improving it.

The Gunnison Tunnel.

work on the Gunnison Tunnel is pro-
crossing nicely and those in charge
affirm that the great bore will be COM
pleted in time to supply water by the
spring of 1909.
The government is spending from
81, 600, 900 to s5, 200, 900 in the construc-
ton of this tunnel, which is expected
to supply water to reclaim and irrig ate
$50. 900 acres of land, all of which is
tributary to Delta and Montrose.
1t is hardly possible to estimate the
increased prodution all this land will
yield when fully under cultivation. An
idea may be had by gauging TIE pres
ent production of our land that is i'm
proved and under water, and which
yields all the way from 800 to 81, 900
per acre.
The people of many states are look
ing forward to the completion of this
great reclamation project by the gov
ernment. for it will mean homes and
no doubt future wealth to thousands.

Another Immense
Packing Enterprise

From the best sources of information
at hand, Delta is practically assured of
another big packing enterprise, the
company perfecting arrangements in
tending to erect storage room for
about three hundred car loads of fruit.
About the only detail left to arrange.
we understand. is fair cooperation of
the railroad in transportation plans,
and as such an enterprise would great
ly assist the railroad itself in taking
care of fruit shipments, this co-opera-
tion should be had for the asking. The
handling of next years fruit crop, If
we have full crop as is expected, has
been one of no little concern, and the
prospective erection of this big packing
plant should furnish joyous news to the
growers as well as to all interested in
the success of fruit growing and fruit
saving.

Delta County
Land Investments.

Few investments of speculative
nature have paid so surely or SO well
for the past few years as land.
This is doubly true of Delta county
land.
While land anywhere is now regarded
as an absolutely safe investment owing
to the decreasing supply and increasing
demand, there are only spots-few and
far between where land can be had of
the quality which Delta county pos
sesses.
We are not able to name an invest
ment made in Delta county land within
the past two years that has not made
the investor profit by the increase Of
value alone.
This is saying great deal, when we
make the statement broad enough to
cover the proportion of mere chance
takers, good number of whom, in the
ordinary course of hap-hazard invest
ments, are considered due to lose.
We know of n number of cases where
parties in other states have bought
land here without even seeing it, and
have doubled on their investment in a
single year. That such system of
buying is to be recommended. however.
