PROD|GAL HAS RETURNED
 ID SUN-K|SSED ARIZONA

Captain A. +. Banta, who came to- this country before Arizona did. was here when a party of official carpet baggers came out from the United States and brought the territorial gov ernment with them. has been heard from again, says the Phoenix Repub- lican. About a year ago he left Phoe nix for New Orleans, sailed to Pana- ma, roamed over that infant republic several months. worked his way back to New York. remained awhile in the metropolis rubber-necking at the twentieth century and the institutions and then turned his face west again. He lit in Colorado in the vicinity of Durango, where he hibernated until he got back the old Rocky Mountain spirit, then sought the sun-kissed land of yore and detrained at Hoibrook From that northern and eastern ter ritorial gateway ke writes 8 Phoenix friend as follows in part:
 The prodigal has returned to Gods country, after year of rambling in equatorial lands. and is glad to be again upon his old range in the sun kissed land of Arizona. I find things here at the eastern door of our terri tory about the same as they were a year ago. Of course, the sheep men are not quite so jubilant, owing to the temporary depression of the wool market. yet they are in no wise de- spondent nor cast down, but are san guine in the Leiief that wool and nut. ton will take an upward move within the next sixty days.

 WITH GOOD RESULTS

Word received in Fl Pa5o from President Bailey O. the Columbus, Colorado and Mexican Railway com pany, who is in New York looking aL- ter the financial affairs of the com pany indicate that his mission is to be a successful one.
 The manager of the steel company which will furnish the rails for the road and will also take a big block of the bonds, has been summoned to New York and George Estes, general attorney for the road, has been notl- fled to hold himself in readiness to answer Q call to the east at any tir-e.
 The manager of the steel company has been an enthusiastic friend of the enterprise since he has been acquaint- ed with its route. opportunities, etc, and it was on his recommendation that Mir. Bailey began negotiations with certain New York capitalists in reference to financing the road. so his call to the metroplis is taken to mean that the arrangements are near ing completion. while the notice to Mir. Estes is believed to signify that he will soon be needed to assist in drawing up the legal papers of the transaction.

PRESIDENT PLANS
 ELEPHANT HUNT

WASHINGTON, D. C.. June 10.- Important significance in connection with President Roosevelt's determi- nation against a third term is con tained in the admission made today for the first time, that the president Is making definite plans to leave the United States in April next year for Africa, where he will spend year hunting big game.
 Rumors that MT Roosevelt was to leave the country at tEe conclusion of his term of office have been print ed heretofore. but when confirmation was sought at the white house, the answer has been that no definite con clusion had been reached Nas to the presidents plans.
 But today it was stated positively that Mir. Roosevelt with his son Ker init, would sail from New York for Cairo in April, 1909-just as soon as the necessary arrangements for the departure could be made after the fourth of March. It is the desire to bring back at the end of the year in the wilds of Africa specimens of every species of big game to be shad on the dark continent. He will visit no other country, it is said
 The outfit for the expedition will be obtained on reaching africa, but an active correspondence in this connec ton already is under way. The ex- act size of the hunting party-number of guides and retainers, animals, etc, has not been determined on. The president, however, will take with him an assortment of arms which he will require in the variety of hunting contemplated. This outIt will in clude, of course, guns of the highest power

deemed a good price by /Jhose who have surplus of that kind of stock, and they are now preparing to round up and ship at once to the Kansas City market
 Many of the sheep men made great mistake last fall in rot dispos- ing of their lambs at the offered price of S3.25 and $4, and now they have the lambs on hand and cannot dis pose of them at $2. It Is hoped the cattlemen will profit by this lesson.
 The unusually cold weather this spring. along with the, extraordinary windstorms,- have about destroyed. all fruit and have also done material damage to the grain prospects throughout this section. Nevertheless, the farmers, by replanting and other wise, hope to have moderate crops: at any rate, enough to tide them over until next year. All in all, l find this part of Arizona fairly prosperous, with no talk of panics or hard times
 Politics, either county or territor- ial, are little talked of just now, but no doubt will take on more life later.
 While at Gallup I learned the Ma vajos had 100000 sheep dipped under supervision of the government, but the officials did not get ali the sheep on the reserve, and the best estimate from the best sources of information is that there are fully 1000 GOO sheep among the Navajos, beside many thousands of horses and cattle. I find t.ae Nayajos a frugal and industrious people. and many are engaged In farming under the late allotment act of congress. They are now fencing with wire hundreds of acres of land which is being plowed and planted to grain by their own labor. In a few years more these Indians will have become good and substantial farmers as well as successful stock raisers."

THE WESTERN SLOPE.

Colorado's western mountains
Cover'd over deep with snow;
Stored there during winter
For the valley lands below;
Comes the nearest perfection
OF any country in the West,
And the miners with the ranchers
Seem to think it is the best.

And here, around Grand Junction,
In the Valley of the Grand,
Stand the finest paying orchards
That was ever grown by man;
And the cranky, sour skeptic,
That naught could ever suit
Goes wild with admiration. of
Its golden crops of fruit.
A buster little town, too,
One seldom ever sees
Than cosey little Junction
Nestled here among the trees.
Where ev'ry one is happy
Where ev'ry heart has hope
And a firm abiding faith
In the Rockies's western slope.

PROHIBITIONISTS SUCCESSFUL
 IN HIGH COURT
Associate Justices 0verruIe the Chief Justice in Upholding Local Option law-Election Now Comes in Maricopa.

PHoENIX. March 2S.-With Asso- ciate Justices Sloan. Doan, Nave and Campbell concurring, the supreme court of Arizona Friday morn,as handed down a decision, affirming the action of Chief Justice Kent in re- fusing to grant an injunction to re strain the board Of supervisors from calling a prohibition election.
 In plain words. this means that Maricopa's supervisors must act at once on a petition, signed by 5o5 cltr zens. asking that the board call an election to decide whether ior not liquor shall be sold in Maricop2 county.
 By the liquor dealers and the pro hibition element this decision from the supreme court has been awaited with great anxiety. each side looking upon Ire result as one of great i'm portance to their way of thinking.
 When Dr. Il. A. Hughes presented a petition to the supervisors asking that a prohibition election be held Joseph Thalheimer. acting for the Royal Arch, an organization of sa' oon men, employed Attorney Stil- well. who brought injunction proceed ingS.
 Thalheimer attacked the validity oi the Arizona statute under which il was proposed to call the election. tho matter being laid before Justice Kent District Attorney Bullard and Attor aey Stilwell finally agreed to submit the matter by stipulation in order to get the matter into tae supreme courl at this term.
 Justice Kent merely pas1ed on the matter formally, denying thel injunc' tion. and Stilweli appealed to the su preme court, since when the two sides to the matter have been sub mitted on briefs.
 Interest in the outcome has not been confined to MaricoDa county, tht liquor dealers and pronihitionists Tn all parts of Arizona taking decided interest in what the supreme court would do.
 The written opinion ilanded dow1 yesterday was prepared by Associate Justice Nave. He says the principal question relates to the validity of th' territorial statute, holding that wher
 it left the legislature it vas a com piete law, therefore knocking out the contention of Stillwel that tht law placed the legislative power il
 the hands of the people, by reason 0
 territorial statute being a1 incom
 piete law when it left the legislature
 or. in other words, that it would no become enacted into a law until Norv by the people.
 If no special meeting is held sooner
 it is probable that the board of su
 pervisors at its regular monthly meet ink in April will order tre call is sued for the election 70 decide tn prohibition question in Maricop; ,coulty.
