WILSON'S RETENTION

If it be true, as is reliably reported, that President-elect Taft has decided to retain James Wilson of Iowa as his secretary of agriculture, it is in reeog- nition of a popular following such as few cabinet ministers have ever had. When MT. Wilson's selection for this post was announced after Major Me Kinley's election to the presidency twelve years ago he was almost un- known to American farmers and even in his own state was not looked upon as an agrieulturalist. During the twelve years in which he has aGminis- tered the agricultural department, how ever, he has built up that department into one of the most important execu- tive branches, and at the same time has built up his personal popularity.

MEN IN GLASS HOUSES

The malicious and personal attack made upon Governor Kibbey by Coun- eilman Eugene Brady O'Neill in the council a few days ago, was not only indecent, scurrilous and mendaeious, but it was unjustifable from every standpoint. Such an exhibition of mar row-mindedness and of spitework was never before witnessed in an Arizona legislature. Under the provisions of the organic act, the Chief Executive is component part of the legislature, and O'Nein was simply befouling his own nest when ne undertook to beslime the governor of the Territory.
 Whatever Governor Kibbey's private history may have been in the ancient past he has certainly been true to the interests of the people of the Terri tory and has been the ablest man who has ever occupied the gubernatorial chair.
 It i'll becomes Eugene Brady O'Nein to slur on a man like Governor KibDey who is his superior, mentally and nor ally. Men in glass houses should not throw stones. How would MT. O'Neill enjoy having his Prescott reeOrd. giv- en publicity, and it is well known here that it extends even into the police court?
 Would he approve of his eseapades in Yavapai county being ventilated either in thep ublie press or in legisla- tive nallsP
 We respectfully submit that MT. ONein should think twice before he again goes off on a tangent. If he has any friends left now in Yavap5i he will forfeit all of them, if he again makes such a disgusting spectacle of himself.

HOvAL SMITH BUYS IN PATAGONIA
 DISTRICT
Fancy Claims That Have Had Good
 Development

TUCSON, Feb. o. Negotiations have been quietly pending for several montls between Hoval A. Smith of Bisbee and Mayor Ben Heney for the sale of the Hardshen and Flux groups of mines in the Harshaw mining dis triet of the Patagonia mountains.
 It was learned today that the deal has been eonsummated. It is under stood that a quarter of a million is involved in the transaction.
 These groups of claims are nine and six miles respectively from the town of Patagonia, with splendid wagon roads to each. By trail the Flux mines are four miles from the Hardsnell headquarters, and on this trail one passes over the famous Worlds Fair, Trench and Humboldt veins. Adjoin- ing the Hardshell group on the east side is the old HermOsa mine that paid over million in dividends in the ear ly sos under the management of Dan Gillette and Covington Johnson; later this mine passed into the hands of James Finley, who made a fortune in year or two and then settled down in Tucson for his few remaining years of life.
 The HardshelI and Flux properties are lead-silver veins carrying always little gold. They have been owned and developed and worked for many years by R. R. Richardson of Pata- gonia, and he has always insisted that they are the biggest mines in the dis trict. Over 5000 feet of work has been done and large ore bodies are ex- posed in both mines. The stage has been reached where extensive mining capital must step in and plan develop ment work and a plant and pumps commensurate with the immense show ing.
 Mayor Heney has had three proper ties under bond for nearly three years and during that time has expended, with a limited pool of associates under a close development corporation, over $125,OO0. The financial crisis at the close of the year 1907 stopped all de- velopment work that was then pro gressing at the rate of $1O,OOO per month.
 About three months ago Hoval A. Smith had a thorough examination made of these properties by Franklin Smith, who submitted a very strong favorable report that has resulted in a deal, as above stated, between MT. Richardson, MT. Heney mad MT. Smith. Just what the terms are and what the consideration is, Mayor Heney declines

 CLAIM
Juanita Mining Co. Is Preparing For Big
 Development
(FroE Tuesdays Daily)

J. B. Cleveland, general manager of the Arizona Central Copper Company, who visited here Sunday, reports the shaft on the Bucky O'Neill claim down 100 feet with the ore body showing well in size and values. Operations in the Shyloek mine are confined to drifting and erosseutting, awaiting the time when the Arizona Power Compa- nv will be ready to furnish electric power from its nydrO-eleetric plant on Fossil creek.
 As soon as the electric power is available an electric hoisting plant will be erected at the Skyloek and sinking resumed. In the meantime the ore bodies above the 500 foot level are being opened.
 The Slylock group is located on the western slope of the Black Hills range in the Yavapai schist belt. The sehists are cut by pOrphyry and lime dykes in which the ore veins, carrying good values in gold, silver and copper, are associated. The management expects to open a large body of ore when the sulphide zone is reached.
 B. F. Peters stopped over here yes terday on his way from Phoenix to the properties of the Juanita Mining com pany in the Crook Canyon district. He is a large shareholder in the com pany.
 Hoisting machinery and lumber IS being hauled to the camp. The new hoist, recently purchased, will be erect ed at the Tom and Dick shaft. There is a very promising ore body opened in the 1OO-foot level of the shaft. It is the intention to rush sinking into the sulphide zone. The lumber will be used in the erection of camp buildings and hoist house.
 The company is financed for exten- sive development operations and the erection of a mill as soon as the mine is developed deep enough to decide on the character of reduction plant best suited to the economic extraction of the ore values.
 Considerable delay has been expe- rieneed in delivering the machinery and material by the recent rains and snows. Hauling was under way with the roads in excellent condition until the present snowfall made the roads from Poland to the mine almost i'm passable.
 MT. Peters will leave for the camp this morning in company with A. w. Sandige and son, William Sandige, re- cent arrivals from Hannibal, Mo.

COCH|SE ECOUNTYHAs BRAND NEW MINE
 DISTRICT
It's Called SWisshelm And It Has Great
 Ambitions

BISBEE, Feb. 22.-Robert Axford, of Hereford, passed through Bisbee yesterday returning home from a trip to a group of copper mining claims in the Swisshelm district owned by him self and E. J. Jaeklin of Tomstone and MT. Buchanan, also of the county seat. Mr. Axford said that he had been to the mines with MT. Jaeklin and as a result of the visit it had been decided to organize a company for the develop ment of hese properties, which had al- ready made an excellent showing in copper. These mines are located not very far north from the Heffern prop erty, on which development work has been progressing steadily for nearly two years.
 It is the opinion of MT. Axford that the Swisshelm district will with devel- opment prove to be the equal of any copper district in Coehise county. This like the Leadville, Paradise and other districts in the county which have not yet reached the productive stage, has been known for the last thirty years and from time to time work has been done in a small way, but there has never been any extensive development work done by anyone. That the eoun- try is mineralized is beyond question and when systematic and extensive development work is undertaken the result will be the same there as it has been in those productive districts of the territory.
 ''It does not require but a glance over the territory,' said MT. Axford, ''to become convinced that the pioneer prospeetors of Arizona succeeding in marking all the important mineralzed country. All the new producing mines opened up in recent years have been in the districts located by the pioneers. Without any means of transportation; except the pack burro, these pioneers discovered the first mineral at Clifton, Bisbee, Globe, Jerome and in all the districts where prosperous mining is being carried on today by those who came later with the means for the proper development of the mines"
 Mir. Axford pointed to COurtland as an evidence that al the old mineral districts located by the pioneers will eventually become important produc- CTS. Around COurtland are properties which have been located for many years and on which work was done in a small way for more than twenty-five years. At last the big cOmpanIes with money required for development De- came interested in the prospects with the result that within the last year and a half the mines have been open ed up and are now attracting railroads to haul the ore of the district away to the reduction works.
