ASHLAND, WIS.,, HAD
 DOUBTS ABOUT STUBBS
As UuSuaI, Home Town Of Big Railroad Man Didn't Think
 Much Of Him,

You know" observed the phiIo- sophie railroad man, that the propn- ecies of your best friends in the days of your youth are apt to be preudiced. Individuals for whom brilliant careers were mapped out have made failures, while men like John A. Gill, who were supposed to be going straight on the wrong road, have trodden the bright and shining highways that lead to success.
 Take our friend J. c. Stubbs. When he was a young man was he looked upon as the future traffic ruler of the United States ?Did the prophets ever expect that the suave quick witted lad of Ashldnd would be the real rdler of the transportation inter est of the United States? Never. In- deed, the wise men of that town fore told a horrible career for J. c. Stubbs, and further declared that any one who had anything to do with him would come to an end not altogether tinged with glory.
 f'Stubbs was on a visit to his old home and was persGading man who, T he had lived, would have been the right hand man of J. c. Stubbs today or else would have been at the head of some big transportation company, to go west with him.
 The young mans father heard of it and said to him:
 Now look here, don't you go off -ysL= %l.-- sa~-, .S4zs~z =~s- S-s ya.-.5- e.z-s<z 1J 1zS <=- Ss szNc : safe man. Hes too upsettfng in his ideas to be a successful business man
 You don't understand him, rath- er.' pleaded the son, he's coming man,
 "A coming man. you say. l think he's altogether too rapid to be coming. He's always going, think
 He's all right. father. He's a great man. You don't know him out here at Ashland. This town isn't all the United States..i
 .. T know, know repeated the old gentleman. but if your are bound to 30 with Jack Stubbs you stick close to him and copy all he does.

SELLEWS GUESTS GOT
 ROOM AND BATHS
Especially BathSI at the Yuma Convention of Irrigation
 Last Week

TUCSON, Feb. 1S.-Notwithstand- ing the fact that Yuma boasts of two hotels, its accommodations were strained when the irrigation conven- tion assembled there last week. There were railroad men, with their secre- taries and stenographers, proect en- gineers with staffs from twelve states, promoters from everywhere, and where to house the strangers was a serious question.
 However, Francis L. Sellew, pro- ject engineer at Yuma, assured tine mayor, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, the president O. the Board of Trade and the chairman of the promotion committee that he would take care of all the government visitors.
 Sellew has his Headquarters in the old barracks to the south of the town, on the high bluff overlooking the river. They are Fine buildings, but his office force is so large that Sellew was compelled to place cots on the porch for lis guests. The porch has a brush roof. It was raining in Yuma and when it rains there. it is as a cloudburst to a general shower.
 "Well, gentlemen" said Sellew to the government engineers, and also to Paul P Hastings, general passen- ger agent of the Santa Fe at Pres colt, 'I will be glad to accommodate you What would you like? A room and bath?" .rs--l ..,-... .
 All who expressed 8 wish for a room and bath were given cots on the porch
 "Tll be hanged if I did not get a room with bath with a vengeance" '" said Hastings the next morning. "I was in a bath all night. The way that rain poured down on me was d fright. And then Sellew, next morn ing asked me if would not like a bath Hei1emann, the maintenance engineer at Klamath, Oregon, says he was never so wet ip his life, and he came down here to avoid rain and had to sleep in a bathtub all night. He vows he will never again. ask for room and bath as long as he is in Arizona
 And all Sellew would say was that he did his best to accommodate ms guests with room and bath"

DENY PARENTAGE
 0F NEW JOURNAL
Search for Sponsors For Re- publican Weekly At Globe
 Is Not Successful.
(Globe Belt.)


 After a thorough investigation, the rumors which have been current for some time concerning the complicity of local federal appointees in the pub, lication of a new Republican weekly paper which is soon to appear, have been found to be false. Many rumors have been going the rounds respect ing the new publication, or rather the old one under a new name, chief of which was that Judge Nave and George Smalley, clerk of the court, were implicated in the publication, the purpose of which, so the report went, was to secure delegation from Gila county to the territorial Republican convention, instructed for Secretary Taft. Both of these gentlemen claim that they are guiltless and that they can prove a1 alibi, if necessary.
 MT. Smalley, when seen yesterday, stated that he has nothing to do with the new paper, although he intimated that he could have, had he so desired. He has evidently been invited by Mir. French to become associated in edit ing the publication and has refused. George is an old time newspaperman, with lots of valuable experience, which was probably greatly desired by the promoters of the new organ and it is really to be regretted for the sake of Gila county Republicanism, that he did not come through Nevertheless, George is for Taft, not because he is Roosevelt's choice, of course, but be- cause ae thinks that Taft will revise the tariff. George used to be a Demo crat and is somewhat Of free trader.
 Judge Nave, likewise, was interview ed on the subject. He stated that it was ''all rot" Not the new publica- ton, but the report that he is in any manner connected with it. It appears that the judge did not receive the same consideration extended to the clerk of the court, as he stated that wasn't even invited to contribute funds or dope to the editorial columns of the new paper. So that end of the rumor is swatted
 According to Judge Nave, he is talk ing only passing interest in politics. (SulI it will be remembered that the man who passes in the big jack pot often has a very large interest in it.) He did not care to discuss the present all-important question of whether or not Arizona should send an instructed or uninstructed delegation to the nd- tional convention, although he inti- mated that it would be good policy to do the former. It has been rumoren for some time that Judge Nave VIII resign from the bench this spring to resume private practice and this is probably the reason Tor his apathy as regards the matter which is of sucA overwhelming impeT tanse to tbe G.. O. P. of Arizona.

took working bond oa the property and made a large payment down. Immediately after obtaining the bond they installed diamond drills and be gan systematic prospecting on the ground. The results far exceeded their expectations and they are nov sinking a fine double compartment sraPt at point that will enable them to conveniently and economically work the magnificent ore bodies To- cated by the diamond drill work AS stated in the first paragraph of this correspondence, the company has felt justified, by the results of development, in equipping the property with the most modern and complete machinery and, as stated, there is now twenty carloads of this machinery in transit to the mines. The management freely expresses the belief that they have the greatest copper property in the United States. The foregoing state ments are not "hot air" but absolute facts based upon my personal knowl- edge.
 As these great copper properties are distant from MamIhoth only 15 miles, and the latter town is the suppl. sta ton for these properties, we are en- toying great prosperity here and will continue to do so. Located in the heart of the San Pedro valley and i'm mediately surrounded by magnifi- cent belt of agricultural land, with bountiful supply of water for irriga- ton purposes, We cannot only supply the adjacent great mining camps with merchandise. but also with all kinds of fruits, vegetables, nay and grain.
 The future of this portion of Pinal county certainly looks bright and there is every indication that the greatest expectations of our people will be fully realized before the close of this year.
