The copper era., 1909-11-11

w. F. Ritter has been after the Southern Pacific and secured cut in the rate on mining timbers from deep water to Lordsburg. For long time the rate on these timbers has been S8.60 per ton to Lordsburg and Cliff ton. Recently cut was made in the rate to Clifton and Duncan from S8.60 to S6. MT. Ritter took the matter up with Freight Agent Stubbs, showing him that these timbers had to pass through Lordsburg, and that it was hardly fair to charge more for freight to Lordsburg than to distant points, when there was no competition, and this week received a letter telling him that the rate would apply 10 Lordsburg.

How Criminals in Arizona Will Hang.

Electricity is to be used by Prison Superintendent Tom Rynning, if he carries out his present plan, in the execution of criminals who have been condemed to suffer the death penalty in Arizona for the murder of their fellow beings.
 Rynniug will not use electricity to electrocute those who have received the death penalty as it is used in New York and several eastern states, but in an invention of his own, by means of which the hanging will be done.
 In his private office Rynning will have a long board, on which are twelve electric buttons. One of these buttons will connect with the drop on the scaffold, but which one only Ryn- ming himself will know.
 When the minute comes tor the execution, Rynning will station twelve men at the board, and at signal each will touch a button. None of them will know which is the right button, and will never know that he has sent a man into eternity.
 Under the law passed by the last legislature the execution of crimi- nals in Arizona is taken out of the hands of sheriffs in the county in which the sentence is passed, and the superintendent of the territorial prison made. the legal executioRer.
 Rynning has considered several different plans for the executions, among them being that of Colorado, where the hanging is done by turning water into a machine. At a certain time, no one knows when, the water reaches point that throws the drop and the man falls.
 After January l next Superintend- Rynning will have two men to hang. One of them is Marquez, who mur- dered Hodges at Yuma, and the other a Mexican who shot a woman near Florence. The death watch is kept over each of these men. Guards re- main on duty eight hours each during the entire twenty-four.

RESOLUTIONS REGARDING
 SUBDIVISIONS

Passed by the Board of Supervisors of Imperial County.
 Whereas it has been called to our attention that very often parties de- string to subdivide their land and sell it in tract numbers, do actually sub divide and sell the same before pre- senting their map and having it :,,- cepted by this board and recorded as provided by the laws of this State, and whereas such procedure sub jects the parties guilty thereof to 8 fine of not less than $25 nor more than $500, or Imprisonment in the County Jail for not exceeding months or by both such fine and imprison- ment, and whereas these maps, when presented usually do not show sufii- cient highways dedicated to the pub lie to insure proper rights of way to and from the lots therein which con- dition will likely entail costs and lit igation upon this county,
 Therefore, be it resolved that we instruct the District Attorney to take the necessary steps to stop the sale of land in tracts before the filing of maps as provided by law, and further that we hereby announce the policy of this Board to be, that it will not approve any such plats unless the same shall show rights of way which in the opinion of this Board will give free public right of way to each of the several tracts.
 It is understood that this resolution does not have to do with the right of any person to sell his land in small tracts so long as he does not do so by reference to any plat or map, buy relies solely upon the description that the subdivision has in accordance with the existing survey.

No Need of Suffering from Rheuma-
 tism.
 It Is a mistake to allow anyone to suffer from rheumatism, as the pain can always be relieved, and in most cases a cure effected by applying Chamberlain's Liniment. The relief from pain which it affords is alone worth many times its cost. It makes sleep and rest possible. Even in cases of long standing this liniment should be used on account of the relief which it affords. Do not be discouraged un- til you have given it trial For sale by Dunaway & Lowe, Druggists.

The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1909-03-26

The candidate for mayor on the
Citizens Independent Ticket, came
to Blackfoot in 1902. and engaged III
the real estate business, after which
he made some investments In real
estate in connection with Neil n.
Boyle. They put up the West q
Boyle building and went into the
hardware business, selling off city
lots from their tract as often as they
could interest a purchaser who
would put up good building on
what he bought, Following up this
policy has resulted in adding consid-
cradle business and PROPERTY to the
town, and has also been profitable to
them and to the people they sold to.
Mr.. West has retired from the
hardware business, and for the past
two years has divided his time be-
tween looking after his large new
farm near Woodville, and his bust
ness interests here. His home is in
the Second ward.

Cl uOIo Ill AdhAu6 q COat4dCt Will ILL
Pacific Monthly to carry advertise
ments Of this locality that will cos
about $55 an issue, and intended tt
induce land seekers to write to thu
club.
The committee recommended tina
condensed information be printed or
the backs Of envelopes to be used bl
local people, giving such facts al
seekers usually ask for In the frs
letter, such as population, schools
churches, price of land and water
rural mail routes and telephone, etc
Also printing larger volume of such
matter on the backs of letter paper
to be used in all correspondence as q
part of the boosting process.
In discussing the matter, Mr.
Blenkle, Rev. Edwards and Others
referred to past experience with that
class of advertising and said that il
was very effective. The committee
was encouraged to go on with plans
of this kind, and try to interest peo-
pie in using it. 1t was suggested
that the public would soon become
interested in the matter if presented
to them, and that they would fur
nish many valuable suggestions to be
incorporated into the plans.
Free Delivery Of Mails.
Postmaster George Wall presented
the matter of securing free city de-
livery of mails, and showed that all
we have. to do is to have the streets
and houses numbered, and few
pieces of sidewalk laid, to come
within the requirements of city de-
livery, and we could then get more
postal clerks in the local office and
two carriers for the outside work.
Plans were discussed for carrying
these things into effect, and the mat
ter was referred to the committee on
public welfare, consisting Of DR..
Patrie, c. F. Hilliard and w. H..
Scott.

Rev. G. A. Edwards, pastor OF the

Commercial Club of their plans for
celebrating here on Sunday, July 4th
and entertaining two trainloads OF
Epworth Leaguers for the day on
their way to the international con-
vention at Seattle. and to ask the
club to consider the matter of getting
up monster Fourth Of July celebra-
tion for July 3rd. He spoke very
interestingly for fifteen or twenty
minutes, and at the close was asked
a number of questions as to what ne
