| discoveries in the western part of the
 territory, are developing into gold pro-
 ducers, and every day brings news of additional discoveries Notable among
 the gold mines of Yavapai county. the home of the Congress, are the Tiger,
 the Octave and the Poland; of Mahave
 county, the Gold Road and the Ari-
 zona- Mexican.
 | Nor must mention of our placers be | omitted; for, from the Pot Holes of l Yuma county, to the Painted Rock in
 Maricopa, there seems to have been a l shower of the precious metal; from the | summit of Rich Hill to Wickenburg, the record of coarse gold would indi-
 cate that in early ages there had been a cloud burst of the golden grains. From the top of Rich Hill alone a million and half in coarse gold mug
 gets was picked up by hand in years
 gone by. And only capital is needed , nowadays in order to work at a profit these great and almost untouched
 placers; for they need the dredge, a costly apparatus.
 Thatsinvestments in the mountains of Arizona richly reward the capital ist is proved by the results attained by the Detroit Copper Mining com pany. the Calumet & Arizona, the Su- perior & Pittsburg, the Shattuck-Ari- zona, the Old Dominion, the United Globe, the Gibson Copper. the Arizona Copper, the Shannon, the Imperial Copper, and the Oxide Copper com pany, to say nothing of the United Verde and the Copper Queen. Nor is this half the list, but time forbids an enumeration of the hundreds of paying mines now in operation
 In the great and growing southwest is room for every sort of miner It is not the capitalist alone that finds fields of usefulness and profit To the skilled laborer and the common miner Arizona now offers greater opportuni- ties than ever before. Nor have the unions obtained the foothold here that they have in California and other western mining communities. Strikes are almost unknown. Even during the panic and following the great slump in copper, the mines of Arizona kept up activities, employing nearly the usual number of men, with only a slight reduction in wages.
 That Arizona jealously guards the interests of those that confide in her has been proved over and over again, from the days when a fearless gov ernor published a printed declaration against fake mining companies, men, tioning in particular one that he be- lieved to be merely drag-net for small wage -earners, down to the pres ent administration. The day of the soapb bubble mining company, as we'll as the day of the arrastra and the adobe furnace, has passed away. and with it is passing that distrust which men of means so often feel toward the mere territory-the frontier

! the only minerals we produce. The list is long and includes asbestos, molybdenum, chalcedony. sapphires and other precious stones, as well as common table salt.
 The valuation of productive patent ed and unpatented mines and mining claims in Arizona Cfor taxable pur- poses) is s13. .134.32.

An observant per son may watch the lines of transpOr- tation and the terminals, and he will see, daily. carloads of new machinery arriving and being speedily transport ed to the camps of Ray. Kelvin, Wen den. Bouse, and the newer mining
  cial and the mining world with their richness. While some of these state ments may seem exaggerated to many. who have even passed through the territory. if the most conservative will visit the different mining camps and mills in Arizona, he will agree with me that the mineral resources of the territory cannot be exaggerated. The time given me did not permit of the preparation of a scientific paper re- quiring research. but if have awak- ened your interest so that you will yourselves investigate the history and statistics in regard to Arizona's min ing and mineral resources, the object of this paper will have been accom- plished
 We need more capital-that capital which we are assured will flow to us when we become a state, even though then we shall be no worthier than we now are. We have the mineral, we have the transportation facilities, we have the mills and the smelters; and when we become a state we shall have all the capital we need to take out and work the ore. Until that time, with Sharlot Hall we say. to those that would bar our admissions: ''We will match the gold of your mint
 ing, with it's mint stamp dulled

 stained it and the hands that have
 clutched too hard,

States in the production of this royal

States in the production of this royal metal.
 The manufacture of copper Is the | most important industry in the terri tory. Mining was substantially com menced here long before Arizona was known as a political subdivision of the | United States. In the early part of the eighteenth century. it was carried on in crude way. and there yet re- main, in the southern part of the terri f tory, many evidences that silver mines were worked there hundreds of years ago. When I first came to Arizona, mining on the improved and modern plan had just begun, although, years before that, stamps had been dropping at the Vulture and at the Silver King The Vulture was a gold, the King a silver, producer. Both have records of many millions of production, and both, on account of expensive transporta- tion, were shut down long ago. Now railroads have made possible their working at a profit, and they are to be re-opened, companies for the pur- pose having been already organized At the Vulture and other mines the
  so rich that afterwards they were torn down and nailled at a large profit
 It was shortly after the Gadsden purchase that the first smelter-an adobe plant at the old Ajo mine-was operated by Peter Brady, a well-known pioneer. In 1873 a similar shelter was at work in Pinal county, and this plant it was that made the first assay of the ore of the famous Silver King. In the early sixties mills were at work in Arizona. but among the first of the modern ones constructed here was the twenty stamp mill on the San Pedro river, near Tombstone, erected in 1879. This mill worked ores from the famous Tombstone mines.
 Now. great, roaring furnaces have supplanted the crude roaster; stamp mills, the arrastras of the aborigines: and magnificent Corliss engines, the One-horse whim of the prospector. And nowhere can there be found to- day more complete and perfect ma chinery than that operating on the hills and in the canons of Arizona. If the men who worked on the Veckol twenty years ago could see the I'm perial shelter on the plain at Sasco, he would think that truly Aladdin had come to life and rubbed his lamp again; so with the old miner of the Lucky Cuss, could he travel now the northern customs smelter; or through Douglas, where two great smelters are in operation night and day; or through Jerome, from where, by night. the slag dumped from the mighty furnaces sends out a glow so vivid and ar-reaching as to be seen a magnificent painting-in the Coco nino forest, fifty miles away.
 Among the gold mines of the Ari- zona of today is the Congress, proba- bly the deepest in it's workings of any in the territory, and its richness holds with depth, nor shows signs of giving out. The King of Arizona and the North Star, two comparatively recent

A rusty monLey wrench and a club

of Jacob Bernstein, shoemaker, of
2231 c street, Glendale. charged with
cruelty to animals, in beating into I'M

belonging to David Danny of 2223 c
street
According to the testimony of wit
nesses the dog appeared in the yard
of Bernstein and killed a young chick
en-. This was detected by the owner
of the fowl and when he saw the dog
in his yard, threw the whench at the
animal knocking it down. He then
seized a club and beat the puppy into
unconsciousness.
The cries of the unfortunate animal
were heard by neighbors and they
notified the police. Patrolman M. e.
Weiss was detailed to make investi-
gations and found the dog In dying
condition. He relieved the animals
sufferings by shooting it.
Bernstein admitted he beat the dog
and said he did so because he became

As the result of the failure of Pete

to properly arrange his costume pre-
paratory to his appearing on the stage
he was roughly handled by w. c.

tanned a fractured nose and discolora-

Jumps" in the suit. He appeared on
the stage and after performing his
part returned to the wings and was
reprimanded by Harpham, who fined
him SO for a breach of rules. An al

terminated because Gerald had to APP
pear on the stage.
Gerald finished his duties and was
in his dressing rooms attired only in
a scanty costume when Harpham APP

the fine of Gerald was increased to S.

Heated words passed and Harpham
is alleged to have jumped on the actor
and given him sound thrashing.
Half a dozen actors appeared and
pulled Harpham away The latter
was called to the business office and
discharged, and Gerald, with his fea-

SPRECKELS REVIEWS
BROTHERS. CRUSADE
JOHN D. PAYS TRIBUTE TO
RUDOLPH
Have Not Been on Good Terms for
Sixteen Years, but Publisher
Praises Younger Member
of Family

NEW YORK, June although John
D. Spreckels of San Francisco has not
been on good terms with his brother
Rudolph for sixteen years, he paid a re-
lnarkable tribute to him in an inter-
view last night, in which he said that
Rudolphs fight against Abe Ruef, Pres
ident Calhoun of the United Railroads
and the grafters involved in the recent
trials was inspired solely by his patri-
otie interest in San Francisco.
Rudolph was worth at least $4,000, 900
and had practically retired from bust
ress,'' said Mr.. Spreckels, "when Cal
houn asked for the trolley franchise on
Pacific avenue.
My family, which has lived in San
Francisco since 1855, has done what IL
dolph believed that there should be no
trolley poles on the streets and especial
ly on Pacific avenue.
Therefore, as a philosophical citi-
zen, he sought to obtain the franchise
himself for an underground and sur
face system, such as you have in New
York.
while this fight was on the earth
quake came, and Calhoun got his troll
ley poles on Pacific avenue, the people
being glad to get any kind of trans
portation. Rudolph employed detect
ives. and the result was the sensational
exposures which startled the country.
without any solicitation, | placed
my newspaper, the Call, behind the
movement. and l think we have done a
great deal of good, not only for San
Francisco, but for all other Cities

The question of rates on through
