STILL YET AGAIN.

Long had it been our thought taat the annual postal department deficit as an argument against government own. ership of public services mad grown too threadbare for use even in the most sequestered community. Its fragrant inuendo, its patent perversion, and the deplorable feature of our government ii vividly illustrates have caused it to be discarded discreetly by the most violent opponents of governmental op. eration. Fancy then our sorrow in seeing the dogeared argument advanc. ed in the Arizona Republican. That sld,OOO,OOO deficit represents nothing but a small portion of the exorbitant transportation rates paid each year to railroads hauling the mail-a rate no private corporation would pay and which the postal department would not pay if 1t could eounteract the power of the railroad lobby. Whatever may or may not be economic value of govern. mental and municipal operation, the is. sue should be met fairly. The Repub. lican could with profit study the sue. cess of the munieipally operated water system of Los Angeles.

HARCUvARs REPORT
 NUMEROUS RICH STRIKES

SALOME, Ariz., Nov. 2l.-Griffen and Baker report that their shaft, which is now down about seventeen feet, is all in ledge matter and well besprinkled with sylvanite ore. It is reported that on roasting some of this ore and subsequently, banning it, won. derfully rich "prospects" were the re- suit. The claims are about six and a half miles northwest of here and about mile and a half from the Calcite country.
 This region is on the south sde of the Harcuyar range and mneral lodges occur along the contact between the broad schst belt which runs along the range and the granite, especially where the big diorite dikes cut across the country.
 Among the striking prospects in the vicinity is the Bee Line group, about three and one.half miles northwest of Salome and right out on the flat. As exposed in the two ten-foot shafts on the property, the ore is very rich ain gold, silver and copper and pitches di. rectly toward big diorite dikc, which parallels it about seventy.fve feet fur ther south. The ore is cuprte and glance in quartz.
 On the Calcite property the mineral. ization is very striking indeed The shaft is now down l26 feet vertically and has opened mp good copper ore in the bottom. The shaft is down in lime reef which shows evidences of mineralization all over its outcrop.
 Chambers and Finncgan have some very valuable claims in this same dis trict, and which show the same strong evidences of an important mining field.

MIR. ROCKEFELLER AND THE
 GOVERNMENT

IL is said that Mr. Rockefeller smil. ei continually while testifying in the government proceedings against the Standard Oil O., perhaps because he was able to avow that he knows very little about the inside history of the trust since 1889. Subsequent events he passes up tO MT. Archbold.
 Mir. Roekefeller's examination deals with the period of stress and strain. when the great creative work was done. Going back beyond a quarter of century ago for evidence in a twentieth century conspiracy case may also have struck MT. Rockefeller as humorous. If there is any disposition m the government to take those an. cient events as a serious basis of n modern verdict against the Standard Oil Co.,. we suspect the American peo. pie will likely so regard if, even in spite of their preiudices. One would think there is supposition abroad that party of conspirators met in dark room, back in the seventies, and matched plot to overthrow Theodore Roosevelt in 1908. This thought, too, may have flashed across MT. Rocke. feller's mind and caused him 10 smile.
 Seriously, it does one a world of good to discover that Mir. Rockefeller and ais associates had a few things to worry them when they were young men. They took their lives and for. tunes in their hands when they bor. rowed money to construct vast sys. tenn of pipe lines and refneries with out knowing for sure whether there would be oil enough to supply them after these improvements were fin. ished.
 'It was godsend to the country that we moved boldly in the matter,u testified Mir. Rockefeller.
 Does the spirit of the great Ameri can people accede to laughter or de rision over that remarkf
 Even though MT. Rockefeller is the richest man in the world and he en- joys the administration of money that some of us think belongs to us, we can afford to be charitable with MT. Rock efeller's youth. Of such men is the kingdom of industry made

JOHN HAYS HAMMOND AND THE
 sECRETARYsHIP

John Hays Hammond is prominent ly mentioned as n suitable man for the position of secretary of the Int. rior, under President Taft. This is such n good idea that we fear it will not materialize. The west has grown So used to taking the worst of it, down m Washington, that it never really ex. poets anything else. The Interior De pertinent mas primarily to do with western affairs. One of its most i'm. portant functions is the administra- tion and distribution of the public do. main. Just as the stockholders of n western mine, bursting with mining wisdom, generally appoint some nc Ter. do-wel eastern relative to manage the mine, so our grave and minded
 federal politicians generally give the job of secretary of the interior to some man who has established polti- cal relationship with the powers that
 be, but who nas displayed no particu. lar aptitude for administrative work.
 One would think, inasmuch as SO much of the work of the department has to do with the west, that west. crn man would always be chosen for thI head of the department Such is not the ease, however, as the western citizens nave learned to their sorrow, lt may be said, to the credit of Mir. Garfield, that he really did spend 10 days in Colorado during last summer, and if is to he noted that his public

 ON NEW CHARGE
Men Accused of Shooting Up Sutter Ranch
 Stand Trial
lFrom Tuesdays DallyI


 Introduction of testimony and aryu ments of counsel in the case of Will liam Pitts, Joseph Foley and John w Smith charged with assault with a shotgun, occupied the entire session of the district court yesterday. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty at ( o'clock last night after thirty minutes dcliberation.
 The accused men were remanded to jail after being informed that another similar indictment had been returned against them by the grand jury. They will be arraigned this morning to an. swer to the second indictment.
 The defendants are soldiers of the Fort Whipple garrison. They. were charged vita shooting at Mrs. Charles sutter of Jerome with shotgun, the night of October :, at the Gleason ranch. They were not positively iden. tihed by any of the witnesses exam. ined.
 Contrary to the general belief they will not be courtmartialed by the mil. itary authorities on the same charge If exonerated in the district court. A recent supreme court decision holds that an enlisted man cannot be held to answer before military court if tried for the same ofrense by the civil authorities.

 Grand Jury
rrom Tuesday's Dally)

Indicted by the grand jury on the charge of dcfacing brands on cattle not their own, Elmer Walsh, Emmett James and Minar Owens were arrested yesterday morning at the Owens rancd by Deputy Sherins Frank Burns and George lIcisler and lodged in the county jail here last night. The Ow- ems ranch is located forty miles north of Seligman. The men were found at the ranch by the officers on their ar rival. They were surprised to learn that they were wanted on felony charges. They were taken to Selig' man overland and from there brought here by train.
 Their indictments followed the ex- animation of several witnesses by the grand jury. The fact of true bills being returned against them was not made public by the officers until they were safely behind the bars here last night.
 lt was learned, however, from a prominent stockman, that they are ac cused of changing stock brands into what is known as the "Wild Indian brand.
 Ii was rumored on the streets last evening that other secret indictments had been returned by the grand jury charging persons who have not yet been arrested with similar ofcnses The officers. however. refused to affirm or deny the report.

Please tell me what to do. I am very
much in Owe with a young man, whom
| went with for some time. He said
that we should get married, but, as he
had no money, | gave him no answer,
because | thought he, a only Joking.
Now l am afraid that he will not ask
me again, as | have not seen him since
hat time. | am worried and nearly
going crazy. At the time he did ask
me he was working. but had no money
saved, as he had been out of work for
some time. Now, Miss Doom, do you
think that II he loves me he'll ask me
again? l don't sec or hear from him.
ROSE.
1 think your chances of getting him
would be slim indeed if he heard that
you refused him because he had very
little money. Why don't you write him
a cordial note, asking him to call at
your home. You will be able to tell
by his attitude whether or not he still
loves you. No doubt he does, but Is
greatly discouraged. If he speaks to
o again of love tell him that you
realize how foolish you were and that
you want to begin over again. Men
seldom ask girls TO marry them in a
joking spirit.
