AP PACHE MAKES GOOD
 REPORT
REGENT SHIPMENTS PAID ALL i, EXPENSES AND FINANCED
 DEVELOPMENT

The forthcoming annual report of the Anderson Apache Copper company will show how one comparatively small min ing proposition tributary to Douglas, and in which Douglas money largely has been expended, has weathered the financial distress of the past year, the low price of copper and other adverse circumstances too numerous to mention, and commences new year better financed than ever before, with greater depth and better ore showings at the mine, and with future in every way more roseate than in the past, says a Douglas paper.
 The report will show that during the eighteen months from July, 1907, to December, 1908, inclusive, the operating expenses were $20,555.4l. Against this expense the last four months of 1908 show net returns of ore of l0,S79.2S. These shipments of the past four months have paid all expenses of ex traction, freight and treatment, and, in addition, have supplied the funds neees- sary for eight hundred feet of develop ment and exploration work.
 Through the work recently done at the mine depth of 360 feet has been obtained and the showing being made is eminently satisfactory to the manage ment. The winze being sunk is in high grade ore and shipments hereafter are to be increased in number.
 Inasmueh as the recent very favor able financial arrangements made with eastern capitalists will permit of the management prosecuting the work that has been outlined and as the program laid out point with all reasonable prob ability to the development of big ore bodies, it truthfully can be said that the Anderson Apache begins the new year with splendid prospects.

OLD PIONEER GONE ID HIS FINAL
 REWARD
HON. JOHN wAssoN EXPIRES AT HIS HOME IN POMONA,
 CALIFORNIA

In the death of Hon. John Wasson Californa loses a good citizen and Ari- zona tried and steadfast friend. He died at the age of IS, Saturday, Jan uary Is, at his home in Pomona, Cali fornia, where he has lived for the past fifteen years, and where he held vari- ous offices of responsibility and trust
 He came to Tucson in 1869, having been commissioned surveyor general of Ari- zona by the president. In this capacity he served twelve years and was an un successful candidate for fourth ap- pointment. On leaving the territory, shortly after the expiration of his term of office, he settled in Chino, Califor- mia, and at the request of MT. Dick Gird, the then owner of the Chino ranch, he established and for years con ducted the Chino Champion. Disagree ing with Gird and the policy of the paper, he sold out and moved to Po mona, and became half owner of the Pomona Times,
 In 1870 Dick Mccormick was candi- date for congress and in his interest John Wasson established the Citizen. The Arizonan was then running. It had been established in Tubae some years before. On being removed to Tucson 1t became the property ofJLt. Mowry and was for time conducted by Major Dooner. Dooner made a winning of about ss,000 in a lottery, and, as Now " was absent, he turned the paper over to the late w. s. Oury and hiked for Los Angeles. The latter gentleman soon tired of his job and the paper ceased publication. Hon. $. R. DeL,ong resue- itated it under it's old name, but if eventually closed its pages for good. At the time the Citizen was given birth the Arizonan was being conducted under the management of Major Dooner. against whom Editor Wasson launched his phillipics. No man living wielded more vitrolic pen than he did and no man met danger half way more willing ly than did the Hon. John. In 1874 he admitted Hon. R. C, Brown into part nership with him. Later they sold the paper to John P. Cum, exIndian agent, and now postoffice inspector in Alaska He removed it 10 Florence, but his gol den dreams not being realized, he re turned with it to Tucson. In the mean time Wasson had left the country as stated, but although absent he never allowed his interest in the territory to flag, but entered the cattle business with his old partner, R. c. Brown The venture was not a paying one. The ranges were already overstoeked, and dry weather soon put them out of busi ness.
 In 1874 he married Miss Hariett Boi- ton, who still survives him, and who has the sincere sympathy of every old Ari- zonau in her great bereavement.

SHELTER CITY MEN DID NOT RECORD
 THEIR DEED
AS RESULT MAY LOSE GROUND
 SOLD THEM BY MAN OF MANY DEBTS

TOMBSTONE, January 2l.-The neg ligence of parties in not having deeds and other instruments filed for record as soon as possible after they have been executed has been the cause of many of them losing their property and will be the means of their having to pur
 chase again the property that they have already been given deed for but which they have failed to record. A number of citizens of the county now find them selves in this sort of a predicament on account of the sudden leaving of A. A. Dudley, of Douglas. They bought prop. erty in Douglas and vicinity from him, and were given deed for the same, but instead of having the deed recorded tucked it away in trunk or some other receptacle. Other parties to whom Dud ley was indebted have stepped in and
 levied an attachment on all of the property that the records show was in the name of Dudley, and as conse- quence the property that Dudley had deeded, the deeds of which had not been recorded, were included in the property under attachment, and the attachment will now hold over the deeds according to the rulings of the court, and unless the parties who hold the deeds can
 make arrangements to have the at
 tachment released on the property that was deeded to them they stand very poor chance of holding the property, or recovering the amount that they were compelled to pay for the property in the first place. Another mistake that number of parties make that might cause them to lose their rights to property transferred or given to them is in sending instruments in for record in the county recorder s office without sending in the fees to pay for the same. The county recorder under the law has no right to place any in- strument on record unless the fees are paid for and if he does he is responsible for the amount of the fees Many per sons send in instruments for record and do not send in the fees, and as they are unknown to the recorder the instruments are kept until such fees are remitted. The recorder upon receipt of instruments from parties whom he does not know, immediately makes out statement and sends it to the parties, giving the amount of the fees, and un- til that amour is received the instru- ments are not placed on record.

DEMAND LowER EXPRESS RATE
San Francisco Merchants Before Inter- state Commerce Commission with
 Plea for Relief

SAN FRANCISCO, January 20.-In- terstate Commerce Commissioner Lane heard the evidence of shippers today in support of their contention for re- duccd transcontinental express rates.
 Local business men asserted the pres ent rate of sl3.50 per 100 pounds un- reasonable and exhorbitant, and asked that new base rate by fixed by the commission. If this contention is grant ed they will ask for corresponding reduction in the SIP per 100 rate on shipments of from 800 to 1000 pounds and of the $ll rate on shipments of from 1000 to 20,000 pounds. The case was completed today and the railroad switching cases come up tomorrow.
