plication of three bona fide settlers in township is sufficient to have the full township surveyed: the applica- tiOn of two settlers within a township is sufficient to have twenty-four sec tions surveyed, and the application of one settler is sufficient to have twelve sections surveyed, to include his claim. The department however, prefers to survey a township in it's entirety where the application of three settlers in the township is available. The surveyor general would therefore like to receive the application of as many bona fide settlers throughout the territory as possible, and he would like these ap- plicatiOns filed as soon after the-first day of July, 1908, as possible, as these applications must be examined and re- ported on as to their good faith by the field division of the general land of flee before contracts for the survey can be awarded. There are many set tiers throughout the territory living on unsurveyed land who would like to have the same surveyed but do not know how to proceed in the matter By writing to the surveyor general
  plications and full instructions as to how to proceed in the matter.
 Very respectfully,
 FRANK s. INGALLS,,
 U. s. Surveyor General.
 The only comment timely to make is to contrast this announcement with previous conditions, thus showing the measure of benefit to be derived by the new order of things. In respect of lode mining claims the old charge was $30 straight for all claims. Now there is a saving of s on each claim after the first. In placer claims the old charge was S35 flat for each claim. here is now a saving of $1O on each claim in the group after the first. As the av- craze group contains from six to ten claims and often twice as many. it can be readily seen that the saving is very considerable item.
 The benefits to be derived by the on agricultural or grazing land are even more. for heretofore he could not secure a title except by paying for the surveying of a whole township, for the reason that the government will not issue a patent until the township is surveyed and there was no fund to pay for it's surveying. Now the government has the money and will do the surveying free of cost, on the proper applications being made to the surveyOr-generaL The settler can then proceed to file on his homestead and prove up in the regular way.
 The special attention of the settler is called to the request of the surveyor general that these applications be filed ls soon as possible after July 1st. It is for the interest of the settler as well as the surveyor generals office.

Surveyor General Ingalls, yesterday gave out a news item that will mear a great deal to the mining industry Oi Arizona and to those settlers who are squatting on government land and have heretofore been unable to secure title to their holdings. The informa- tiOn has been made public in a general letter to the territorial papers. this be- ing the first publication of it. Com ments upon it will be more clearly un- derstood after the reading of the letter, which is as follows:
 To the Editor of The Republican, Sir:
 As a news item have decided to ad- wise you that the charge made by me for office work and stationery in con .nection with the survey of mining Iclaims where they are surveyed in a group. vii be reduced from and after July i, 1908, the new schedule of charges being as follows:
 For office work to be performed in the surveyor generals office in Ari- zona, in connection with the survey of mining claims. For a single lode claim, 5000.
 For group of lode claims, $3O for the first claim and s25 for each addi- tional claim.
 For each millsite surveyed in con nection with a lode claim, s15.
 For millsite surveyed independent of lode claim, $50.
 For a single placer claim, s35.
 For a group of placer claims, $35 for the first claim and s25 for eac' additional claim.
 For a group of claims containing both lode and placer claims, $3O for the first lode and $25 for each addi tional lode claim, and s35 for the first al placer claim.
 All these estimates are subject to increase should the surveyor general find that the first deposit is not suf- ficient to cover the office work.
 also have to advise you that of the fund appropriated by congress for the and resurvey of public lands of the United States for the fiscal year beginning July l, 1908, and ending June 30 1909, S20,O00 thereof has been to the district of Arizona and will therefore be available for the survey of the agricultural and grazing lands of the territory during that time, and settlers who are residing on un- land and would like to have the same surveyed so that they can ob- tain patent to their claims, can do so by making application to the surveyor general upon proper blanks, which will be furnished them by the surveyor general upon their request.

SUPERVISORS GRANT
 TELEPHONE FRANCHISE
In the Meantime the Company Has Gone Ahead As If It Were Already Granted.

At a meeting of the board of super visors yesterday the Peoples Inde- pendent Telephone company was granted a franchise. Application was made for it a couple of weeks ago and it was the intention to grant it at the following meeting but at that time ths application lacked the formality of the district attorneys office and that time no representative of the office was in the city. The matter was allowed to go over with the understanding that it would be granted and the telephone people went ahead as if the franchise were already a thing of fact The franchise premits the erection of poles and wires along the county roads. The rights of the county are protected as well as those of property owners along the line. For instance. trees cannot be cut down or shOrn of their branches without the consent of the abutting property owner.
 The question of consolidating the Buckeye and PalO Verde school dis tricts came before the board but no action was taken on it. The board was confronted by petitions and remon-  strances and a confusing fact was that the names of many of the petitioners were also signed to the remOnstrances. In one case a man had not only peti- toned for the consolidation and either later or before he had signed a pro- test against consolidation
 In order to define his position more thoroughly so that there could be no misunderstanding as to how he felt about it he wrote a letter favoring consolidation and another remOnstrat- ing against it. And still the super visore cannot make up their minds as to what he really wants.
 The chief objection to the consoli- datiOn was the size of the proposed district. The Palo Verde is already large one and the remOnstratOrs de- clare that if it were made any bigger many of the pupils would not be able to board at home.

Rhodes and Matrimony.

Cecil Rhodes at one time had a pri-
vate secretary of whom he entertained
a high opinion and whose services he
greatly valued. One fine morning this
favorite abruptly announced that he
was going to be married. The colossus
was speeehless with indignation for a
moment, and then. glazing at the cul-
prit, he growled out, "What on earth
am I going to do for another secre-
tary?"
Without waiting for reply he strobe
from the room, slamming the door be-
hind him with great violence. His
good nature. however, prompted him to
extend the forgiving hand later on.
and he gave to the bride some fine
diamonds. In addition, he lent them
his own carriage and horses for use to
and from the church.
It never entered his head to give his
arstwhile favorite secretary any more
employment. Such crime as matri-
mony, though forgiven, could not be
3ondoned.

so many thousands of brave men fell.
General Lee, with great army, had
invaded Pennsylvania, intending a
raid northward. He was met by Cen
eral Meade's opposing hosts at Gettys-
burg and sent back to the south after
three days of fighting as desperate
and heroic as history records. General
Lee had hoped by his raid into the
north to cause the withdrawal of a
considerable part of General Grants
forces which had been besieging the
Confederate stronghold of Vicksburg,
on the Mississippi. for six months. The
defeat of Lee and the surrender Of
Yicksburg by General Pemberton thus
made double victory for the Union
and a double disaster for the Confed-
eraey.
The fall of Vicksburg opened the
Mississippi river to the Union gun

waters iran unvexed to the sea-"

of July, 1868, practically determined
the salvation of the American Union.

pose of finding the men who are most

STOCK GAMBLING.
The injury done by issues of water
ed stocks is more clearly seen and
better understood since the shrinkage
in the market of such stock precipi
|tated a widespread panic and brought
enormous loss to the country. The
recent panic also emphasized the nee
|essity for legislation protecting the
wealth producers from spoilation at
the hands of the stock gamblers and
the gamblers in farm products. The
late financial stringency furnishes adj
ditional proof that the republican lead
ers are either unwilling or incompe-
tent to protect the interests of the
general public. They have SO linked
us to Wall street that the sins of
spectators are visited upon the en-
tire country.
POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.
We favor the postal savings bank,
and, in addition, thereto, insist upon
the passage of laws, state and national.
for the better regulation of banks and
for the protection of bank deposits.
The government demanGs security

intrusts his earnings to a bank should
be as perfect as the government Sc
