There is no one so deviltempted to

he assumes he is not paid enough;
tempted because he cannot indulge
himself ms some who are better paid;
tempted because he is vain of good
appearance, tempted because he
wants to shine socially; tempted be
cause he loves devotedly and cannot
shower gifts from his thin pocketbook.
tempted because he is neophyte In

of all. by the desire to emulate some

csts, and as warmly advocated by the cattle interests. Sheep men claim that large cattle men desire to monopolize the grazing of the public domain and destroy their industry, thereby intro. ducing a system of landlordism into the country. This is a mistaken idea. Cattle owners do not move their herds from place to place as do the sheep owners. The cattleman is dcsirous of protecting the gresses where his stock ranges the entire year. The sheep owner pastures his flocks over wide range of territory every year and has no particular interest in any one place. Were ne compelled to pasture on one range the entire year it would be to his best interest to protect the grasses and see that the feed was not destroyed entirely, as is now the ease in many places.
 "Under Rooscvelt's policy the largo cattle interests cannot monopolize tho public domain. I understand that h' advocates that not more than 10000 acres of land be leased to any one per son and that the lease will not be trans fcrable without the consent of the au thoritics. Other restrictions will b' adopted looking to the protection o

BIG STRIKE MADE ON IRON GAP

GLOBE, Ariz. Jan. 1s.-Thc Ma tional Mining Exploration company has made it's first big strike, high grade ore being encountered in the east drift on the ijOfoot level of the Iron Cap mine. Since the company commenced opera tions carly last year little doubt has existed that good ore would be struck m the mine, owing to its excellent To- cation With the Copper Hill mine of the Arizona Commercial on one side of ii aud the Black Hawk mine of the same company ob the other, there was no logical reason for not having ore m the Iron Cap.
 Several weeks ago n vein fourteen
 feet wide was penetrated by the north crosscut about GOO feet from the shaft
 but it contained only trace of mn
 craI. most of which was leached out | Drifting on the vein was started ioi the purpose of further exploring tho vein and the recent strike IS the re suit Although no assays have beer
