Much Interest at Tombstone.

There is much interest in Tombstone
over the probable action of the grand
jury because of reports that there is
an investigation of some of the
county Offices by that body.
During the past week there have
been many rumors floating around
the county seat in regard to what
might be expected from the grand
jury regarding more than one of the
county officials. OF course there can
be no definite knowledge of grand
jury doings except from the reports
filed in court.
1t is understood that Chas. Purdon,
county examiner, after making an
examina tion of the several county
Offices IT >orted to the board of super
visors that he found no evidence of
wrongdoing in any of the offices. This
report raised the wonder what the
grand jury has been able to find con-
cerning the efficiency and honesty of
public Offices that the county ex-
amincr was unable to discover.

Registration Brings Out Surprises.

Owing to the strictness with which
the locai option registration is being
conducted, it is estimated that the
present enrolment will total about
5000, which is about 1000 below the
registration of last year.
The reason for this is that there
are many people who have voted for
read and then some who can neither
read nor write. This is bringing
about results which haYe not been
looked for in some directions and is
liable to have a material bearing up
on the result.
In Bisbee, also in Douglas, many
people are taking out their first
naturalization papers, thinking they
will be able to vote at the January
election as a consequence. Those
who have tried to register, however,
have found the "Nothing doing" sign
hanging out in verbal prominence and
it will have no other effect than to
enroll them on the list of prospect
i've citizens.
One registration officer had a deaf
and dumb man enroll the other day.
The officer was at sea for some time
on the proposition of how to ascer-
tain if the man could read. He was
not familiar with the deaf and dumb
alphabet and the applicant got
hold of the constitution and made
all kinds of signs, that didn't con-
vince the officer. Finally, by signs,
he instructed the applicant to read
a portion of the constitution and
then write it, which he did salts
factorily, go his name went down

Wireless TELEPHONE For Arizona.

Within three or four weeks a COM
pany will be formed to install a Col
Inns wireless telephone system in
every city and town in Arizona. The
first city to have such a system will
be Phoenix, says the Gazette.
John Phelps, a preventative of
the Collins Wireless Telephone COM
pany, has been in Phoenix for sew
eral days. Tom Mooney has taken
the local and territorial agency for
the company and will form the sub
corporations.
Two wireless telephones have al
ready been installed for exhibition
purposes in different rooms of the
Lewis building, over the Arizona
Mercantile company. A representa-
tive of the Gazette talked for five
minutes with Mr.. Phelps through the
wireless phone. Every word came
clearly and distinctly.
1t is Mr.. Phelps prediction that
the wireless phone will be in COM
mon use in Phoenix within six
months. After that it will rapidly
spread to every town and mining
camp in the territory.

Option Petitioners Meet Opposition.

According to reports from the
northern part of Gila county, the
local option movement started in that
district some time ago may never
come to an election.
Since the first petition was received
here and later sent back to the tenn
perance advocates for the addition of
more signatures, two well signed pro-
tests haye been filed with the board
of supervisors.
These protests. according to Clerk
j. W. Wentworth of the local board,
contain many names of taxpayers in
that district in which the prohibition
fight is being made and they will
probably carry much weight with the
county fathers when the matter
comes to an issue with them.
If it is apparent from a careful in
spection of both the petition and the
protests that the bulk of the residents
of northern Gila county are not in
favor of local option, it is probable
that the board of supervisors will pre-
vent the expense for an election by
declining to cali for a formal vote on
the liquor question.
The local option petition has not
been submitted since it was returned
to those who are fathering it.-Globe

Took PaSteur Cure.

After three weeks of treatment at
the celebrated Pasteur institute,
Chicago, ]. S. Boyer, the young man
who was bitten by skunk on Cherry
Creek, October 81 last, has returned
TO Prescott. He expressed himself
as of the firm opinion that he will
never experience any evil effects from
the wound, and is an enthusiast as well
over the method of treating those
afflicted as he was.
After entering that institution he
was treated twice day for five con-
secutive days, and this was followed
by one injection day for another ten
days. He was then discharged, but
with the understanding that he must
obey instructions by keeping out of
the sun or from getting overheated
for a period of six months. Other
wise a relapse would follow and there
would be d recurrence of the lament.
Mr.. Boyer says that his ailment
was diagnosed by the physicians in
charge and the bite was pronounced
as carrying the poison of the hydro
phobia skunk k,-PrGspector.

Mining Location Law Proves Big Puzzle.

There seems to be misunderstand-
ing on the part of some of the claim
owners in regard to the nature of the
Arizona mining location law as
amended by the last legislature.
The new law, which admits of an
eight-foot discovery shaft instead of
requiring that one be ten feet in
depth, as heretofore, applies only to
location or initial work, and not to
annual or assessment work. The
regulation requiring 800 worth of
work per claim is still in force; it is a
federal law which can not be amend
ed except by special enactment by
congress.
The new territorial law is as fol-
lows:
San act to regulate location of
mines amending section 1924, Sub. 2
and 3237 of the revised Statutes of
Arizona, 1901.
"Be it enacted by the Legislative
Assembly of the Territory of Ari-
zona:
"Section 1, Section 1924, Subdivis-
ion 2, to read as follows: TO sink a
discovery shaft in the claim to
depth of at least eight feet from the
lowest part of the rim of the shaft
at the surface, and deeper, if neces-
sary, until there is disclosed in said
shaft mineral in place.
"Section 2, Section 3237, Subdivis-
ion I, to read as follows:
"'Any open cut, adit or tunnel,
which shall be made as above pro-
vided for, as a part of the location of
a lode mining claim, and which shall
be equal in amount of work to a
shaft eight feet deep and four feet
wide by six feet long, and which shall
cut lode or mineral in place at
depth OF ten feet from the surface,
shall be equivalent to shaft sunk
from the surface
sSection 8. All acts and parts of
acts in conflict with the provisions of
this act are hereby repealed.
"Section 4. This act shall take ef-
feet and be in force from and after
it's passage.

Arizona Youth Makes Good at Yale.

The old saying in this territory
that whenever an Arizona boy is
given a chance he will make good"
has been proven by William A.
Goebel, resident of Arizona, now a
resident of Arizona, a student at
Yale.
Three years ago young Goebel was
a student enrolled at the Phoenix
high school. At that time the young
man had football aspirations, and by
dint of hard work and lots of prac-
tice managed to make the position
of full back on the school team.
A year later, he left the Phoenix
high school and entered Yale as a
freshman. He was one of the mem
bers of the football squad the frst
day they went out to practice, and
wonder of wonders, the freshie made
the varsity team. Goebel played
last season as a guard on the first
team, and this year again made the
team in the same position.
At the recent Yale-Harvard game,
which Yale won by a score of to 0
Goebel distinguished himself. by max
ing the first score that Yale secured,
a touchback, counting two points for
the Sons of Eli.
Goebel was prominently mentioned
last year as a member of the ALL
team, and this year un-
doubtedly will gain the honor of be-
ing member of the team picked by
the eastern experts as the best in
America.
Goebel is d son of Justin Goebel,
Phoenix, and a nephew of the late
William Goebel, the assassinated
governor of Kentucky.

Professor BabcOcK vs.. Superintendent
Mcclure.

In reply to charges made by DR..
Kendric &. Babcock, president of the
University of Arizona, against A. n.
Mcclure, superintendent of the
Yuma schools, the latter, when in
terviewed by-a reporter of the Yuma
Sun, comes out with the statement
that he will go before the territorial
board of education and prove that
DR.. Babcock is a ''falsfer."
1t will be remembered that in the
history of the charges first published,
Dr. Babcock accused Mcclure of
"elaborately" lying. That is to say
the doctor used the "shorter and
uglier" word which Mr.. Roosevelt
was wont 20 apply to those to whom
he thought deserved it.Mr. Mcclure,
on the other hand, seemed satisfied,
according to the Yuma Sun, with the
gentler word ''falsifer." The charges
made by DIR. Babcock were made
against Mcclure for using his posi-
tion to advance his "Arizona Teach
ers' Agency land for the alleged un-
lawful use of the degrees NJ. A. and
Phi. D., which he attaches to his
name. The Sun states in McClure's
behalf that his diplomas are of the
best and issued by the most reputa-
able Schools" but neither the names
of the institutions of learning or the
date of the issuance of the diplomas
are furnished-Yuma Sun.

Bringing positive assurance that
new class rates, showing a reduction
of approximately % cents upon all
classified freight, will be put into eff
feet about January 2 by the E. P. &
S. W., President George E. Buxton
and Secretary H. K. Reynolds, of the

ference with the two men which re-
suited in the above announcement.
The rates, which will practically
be effective from the first of the new

rates and the rate from Ell Paso upon
classified freight in car load and less
than car load lots.
The office force at Ell Paso is now
at work reclassifying the rates
with a general reduction all down the
line in evidence.
The movement which will result il
the reduction was begun severa
months ago by the board of trade
which took the matter OF freight
rates up with Mr.. Brown, calling hi:
attention to their orbitance.-Bis

What Taft Will Demand oil CONGRESS
Next Week.

According to several men of promi-
nence who have been advising with
the president since his $4,000 mile
/ jaunt around the circle, senators and
congressman gathering for the ap-
preaching session are not looking for
ward to the meeting with great de-
light, except in instances where the
national legislators are in harmony
with President Taft's views. One by
one the measures upon which M.
Taft is determined some &C tion shall
be taken has leaked out, and when
arranged in one program they are of
sufficient scope to arouse interest
throughout the country. While the
president is confident that he will
not secure all that he hopes for dur
ing the coming term, he has made

dence of Mr.. Taft.

ing carriers to form through routes
and to fix and apportion rates among
carriers.
The prohibition of railroads from
holding stock in competing roads,
the authority for railroads to make
rate agreements with the approval
of the interstate commerce COM

commission in fixing rates.
The compulsory adoption by the
railroads of additional safety de-
vices.
The creation of a central bank of
issue, controlling the treasury reserve
and prepared to guard against cur
rency stringency.
Postal savings banks.
An amendment to the Sherman
Antitrust law making it apply only
to trade monopolies and not to rail-
road combinations.
