NEWS OF THE TERRITORY.

land got another nice little CneCk IN
his mail for s51 ,375. He put it in the
money drawer and credited up Gra-
ham county that much for taxes. 1t
is d cold day when Mr.. kirkland does
not handl> more money or good reli-
able paper than a whole lot of small
banks. And it is nice for the"com-
mon people" to live in a territory
that is on a cash basis, warrants
worth par and money coming in on
every mail train, money to loan and
make enough on to at least pay a
large part of the interest on the out
standing bonds.-Republican.
Tucson may follow the lead of Los
Angeles and establish stockade in
which to confine hoboes. Marshal
Hopley stated to the Citizen that if
the hoboes continued to arrive there
it would be necessary to make some
special provision to care for them as
the city Jail is already overcrowded.
There is little room for any more
prisoners in the city Jail and if gen.
eral roundup of hoboes is made it
will be necessary to provide additional
quarters for them and there is a
probability that the city will establish
a stockade. Tucson appears to be
favorite stopping place for hoboes as
it is the largest city between Los
Angeles and Ell Paso along the South
ern Pacific.-Citizen.
The Phoenix local of the Inter-
national Typographical Union held a
meeting, at which it was decided to
continue the agitation of the matter
of the establishment of a home for
tuberculosis members of the union
somewhere in southern Arizona.
Arizona's delegate to the printers
convention last summer brought the
question up, but at that time the
other delegates had not had time to
m editate upon the matter, and so
nothing was done. Since that time
the Phoenix local has received a
number of letters from different parts
of the United States, in which print
ers declared themselves in favor of
!, the home. A committee was APP
p ,inted TO communicate with the
her five locals of the territory,
urging them to send delegates to the
invention in Boston next August
pledged to push the project through
if possible. 1t is believed that some
thing may be accomplished at that
time.
The Savage Gold and Copper COM
pany is to be more aggressive than
ever in it's policy. Owing to the
nature and magnitude of the new
plans contemplated, it must needs be
some little time before the force will
be increased. But we are glad to be
able to state authoritatively that no
shutdown will occur in the mean
time. At the same time that the
new vertical shaft on the SNOWFALL
claim is, with the aid of machinery,
being sunk, ore will be shipped to the
Copper Queen smelter at Douglas.
Shipments will be commenced as
, soon as the necessary arrangements
have been made by the company, or
as soon as the ore will be accepted at
the reduction works. 1t is under
stood that the Copper Queen can use
this ore to advantage. The ore is a
silver-copper ore, running high in
silica. The Copper Queen can use
the silica (which is ordinarily OBJ
jectionable in large quantities. as
converter Innings. Careful analysis
of the ore also convinces the Savage
company that shipments will pay and
bring some money into the treasury.
And there is considerable ore in sight
quite easily mined in drifts from the
shaft, as well as elsewhere on the
property. Work on the new road is
progressing fayorably. This new
road il being built to facilitate the
hauling of machinery to the mine
and ore to the depot. 1t is also ex-
pected that an ore platform for the
Savage will be built at Rodeo by the
Southwestern. 1t is believed that
the Savage could now ship steadily,
and if this is true this year will de-
moustrate the fact. - Paradise
