 ure
 Billy Palmer. who recently took to the hills on a prospecting trip, has returned. Judging from the piece of gold quartz he exhibited before his departure, he went searching for the famous mines of Golconda. We hope he found them.
 Mrs. s. A. Dodson and daughter. Uhler, and Mrs. Butcher Wilson, who have been at Jerome the past sum- mer returned recently. Mir. Wilson and Clay Dodson came overland. They will occupy the Roger Briggs house. We welcome them back. The salesman for Brownstein, New ark & Lewis of Los Angeles was in town last week trying to persuade our merchants that they needed full line of fancy weskits. etc. This gentleman was heard loudly bewail- ing the fact that he had no camera with which to take the picture of an automobile and a burro team stand Ting very socially together at the side of the Parker Commercial com pany's store.
 Frank Wright, lawyer and min ing engineer of New Haven. Conn, is looking up the mining possibili ties of this region and incidentally taking a vacation. Besides the title of Nj. F. and L. l.. D., MT. Wright also bears the title of B. A. If there is any other portion of the alphabet which should be attached to the rear of this young gentleman's name we are not yet cOgnizant of the fact, but. merely as matter of news, will enlighten the public as soon as we obtain any further information.
 Reilly Johnson and J. A. Reid drove out to their ranch on the Bill Will Hams Fork several days ago to in- vestigate the progress of the canal which they are having dug from the river to the ranch. The canal will be one mile long, three feet wide and three feet deep and will have a tun- mel of 300 feet in length through a high bluff. It will cost nearly $2,60O and be completed in about two months. With this added irrigation Messrs. Reid and Johnson not only expect to raise all sorts of vegetables and alfalfa, but will SC out several orchards of oranges and other fruits.
 John Cuff, a well known prospect or of this vicinity, was taken to Phoenix recently by Vincent DeVine and placed under the medical care of Dr. E. P Palmer. MT. Cuff was seriously i'll with bladder trouble for several weeks before his departure. A gangrenous condition of the af- fected parts having set in, it was necessary to operate. The latest bull letin gives very little hope of Mir. Cuffs recovery. We are sorry in- QeeO 10 near SuCn Ddu news OI MT Cuffs condition and hope that there may be a change for the better. We understand that J. B. Martin and J. A. Reid intend buying his mining claims.
 S. V. Huber, formerly of Pittsburg. now of Los Angeles, O. F. Riebel of Spokane, Wash, and Henry Wick of Youngstown, O., stockholders of the Pittsburg and Harqua Hala Mining company. known locally as the San Marcus" have been visiting their mines four miles southeast of here for the past week. They were ac companied by Alfred J. Diescher, a l mining expert, who travels almost | continuously Investigating mining | propositions and Denver people. The | gentlemen above mentioned were very reticent in regard to their plans but | it is believed that the erection of a | stamp mill at the San Marcos will | soon begin.
 Hurrah! Whats the matter with | us? For a good old democratic pre- | cinct we came pretty close to a re- | publican landslide
