Carnegie Hero Awards

For saving the lives of Mrs. w.. w McCune and her 6-year-old son from drowning in the Colorado river near Parker, when the river was at flood stage, the Carnegie hero fund commis- sion of New York has voted medals and cash contributions to Peter Dean and Saltamah, two Indians on the Parker reservation.
 Dean sacrificed his life that Saltamah might get out of the river with Mrs. McCune and the boy. His act was one of the noblest self-sacrifces that has ever been performed by an Indian in Arizona. The commission has voted a silver medal and $50 month to the widow of Dean during her life, and if she marries, $5 per month additional to each of her children until they reac h the age of Is years. Saltamah was voted a silver medal.

Gleeson Awakening

Gleeson, the old camp across the Dragons from Courtland, seems on the verge of having boom, says the Court land Times. This old camp has been shipping ore by freighters to Pearce for mole than twenty years, and is a proven camp, just as Courtland is, of many years standing. Just as William Holmes stands in Court,and today as "a man who pinred his faith to the old Leadville mine, long before anybody else would even share with him in the labors of development, outside of a very few friends who st0ea by him, so over at Gleeson, John tilecson, McKittrick Martin Costello, Cowan and others have remained in the camp for years, conf dent of it's ultimate prosperity and ae- tivity. Ther faith, now that two rail roads are grading into the camp, seems at last on the point of realization.

MIX Question at Douglas

According to information which is current the milk men of the valley have, after the example of Cartoon st Powers creation, thrown their hands above their heads and declared. '.Never again. y No longer will their rallying song of the early morning be, "Sha.l We Gather at the River.'' No longer can the tale be told on them that once was told on a prominent Douglas man form erly in the dairy business. Something happened one day to the regular dairy man of Douglas family and milk was bought from n>.ghbor. A little boy in the family that morning drank the milk with unusual gusto and after being refused a thId glass made this comment: "Mamma, why don't Mir.
 , the dairymau, get cow'"
 But, seriously, the pure milk cam paign being conducted by Mayor Greene Is believed to be having the desired re- suit, and one wonders what the milk men are going to do. They can sell "skim v m lk, if it so labeled, but other milk must be pure and with the required percentage of milk aud butter fat.--In. ternational.

Judgment Set Aside.

A ruling, setting aside the $4,00O verdict which was returned in the case 'of Hoefeld against the Detroit Copper company, was made in the Pima county district court by Judge Campbell. This is one of 3s actions brought against the Detroit Copper company by Clifton residents, who claim that the bursting of dam owned by the copper company caused them damage, aggregating a quarter of million dollars. Attorney Ellinwood appeared for the copper com
 pany in the district court today. He argued that the comlaint on which the action was brought was insufficient as it did not constitute valid cause of action. It is quite probable tat an ap- peal will be taken to the supreme court owing to the importance of the case.

A sheepman,s Invention

Fred w. Volz, of Canon Diabolo, has applied for letters patent on his moving sidewalk attachment to sheep dip This appliance does away with the push. ing and crowding of sheep in the dip, and after they get on to the runway, there is nothing left for them to do but stand still and be carried through the dip. The dip that Mr. volz has erected at Canon Diablo, is most mod. ern in every respect, and will be liber- ally patronized during the next dipping season. The dip is built of cement, and is heated and an equal temperature maintained by coils of steam pipes, which are arranged throughout the length of the dip.

Over the Dam in a Boat.

The Yuma Sun says: Ike Leposky and Edward Hill have the distinction of being the very first to carry boat over the big Laguna dam. Coming down from Parker they found the sluiceways on both sides of the dam closed and the waters flowing some two or three feet over the crest of the structure. By getting out and wading and guiding the boat they were able to steer it safely over and through the rocks and rapids to the river below. It was dangerous and ticklish business but successfully accomplished. 0a

Recently the Nogales Oasis in an editorial took issue with the article which appeared in the American Mag azine on "Barbarous Mexico" dis agreeing with many statements con tained in the article concerning condi- tons in our sister republic. An Amer ican living in Mexico wrote letter taking the editor of the Oasis to task because oS his criticism of the Amer ican Magazine article. This letter brought forth the following in the columns of the last issue of the Oasis:
 That the Mexican law is not per feet is conceded willingly, just as it is admitted on the other hand that the American is not; but it fits very we'll the wants and needs of the Mex ican people, and the particular stage of development they have attained in the advancement of modern ciyiliza- ton among them. That in some in- stances it seems burdensome and on erous to the Anglo-Saxon in Mexico there is no doubt; and when such cases arise the diplomatic service of the two countries is called into re quisition, as is the case now in the Shepard will be released shortly of adjustment between the two gov ernments, and matters are being ar. ranged amicably.

SILVER KING PROVES
 BONANZA FOR OWNERS

When a prospect pays it's way from the grass down it might well be called a mine. Such is the case of the Sil- yer King, about four miles from the Pilares. It has paid expenses of de velopment and profits besides from the time it was taken by John Hays Hammond and associates. It is not a large proposition, but so far as it has gone it has proven rich. It is now under the management of J. C.. George and is shipping high grade ore. It is a silver proposition.
 Comparatively little development work has been done upon the Silver King property. There is shaft down 155 feet and it has become so that it is easier to cut in under than to hoist the ore which is still found in the shaft. Hence a tunnel is being put in on the 200 level which is in- tended to crosscut the vein on which the sinking has been going on This tunnel has not yet encountered the vein it is intended to crosscut, but is now encountering rich stringers of ore and if it continues in the same formation that it is now in until 1t shall strike the vein upon which the shaft has been sunk Manager George states that they will take out s3O,OOO worth of ore before making the con- tact.
 A car of ore is now in shipment to the smelter here from. the mine and is expected to arrive either today or tomorrow which it is expected will net over S3,OO0, and it is less than four weeks ago that car was ship ped to Douglas which returned prof it of S2,OS4.
 The showing which the Silver King has made may be considered remark able and Manager George states that the owners have received three diff ferent offers for the purchase of the property.

ton of ages of experience on the part of the race that has made it's home there under the conditions there pre- vailing. Like our own institutions those of Mexico are a growth, and they cannot be altered in a day. With the growth in civilization of the Mex ican people those institutions will con tinue to grow. Yet at all times there will be points of variance where fric- tion may be possible, and where 1t is incumbent upon both sides to get along with the least amount of such friction. In other words the American in Mexico must accommodate himself to conditions there, just as the Mexi- can in the United States has to do. And it does not help those Americans who are in Mexico, doing business and with all their material interests to have American magazines and newspapers railing at the entire sys- tenn and people. when there may be cited things at home that are just as bad if not worse.
 Nowhere is the difference between thetwo systems more striking than along the border, and there is hardly term of court in any of the border counties of Arizona that do'not appear cases that the Anglo-Saxon system fails to fit, in which it is apparent that could the Latin system of juris- prudence be applied the case would be settled far more quickly and just. ly. It would be a good idea could there be applied the code of Mexico ip some cases arising in Santa Cruz
 md other border counties. It would
 it such cases far better. But under UT institutions and system 1t can. i not be, and justice has to be admin istered under our own forms in the l lest way possible.
