depot. In a conversation which fol lowed between the officer and the ex- convict, the former learned that the negro during the time he was in prison had earned for himself by selling canes, trinkets and curios, double the amount which he carried away with him -s90O-and he had given to the territory from his earn ings $1,sOO.
 Asked if he was delighted to leave the grim prison walls behind and again enjoy freedom, the negro re- piled:
 "Is dis chicken happy, boss. Well white folks, An sho' do love once more to gambol about and An guess it will be some time befor' dis yeah chap mus hustle for de chicken. |" Displaying his big bunch of bills).
 "It wah not so bad in dat place but with beans all de time, An had to part with some of nah money for sweets for heah Am suah one colored man dat do like his sugar all de time"
 he negro had been a Pullman DOT ter. He had engaged in an slterca- tion and as a result of the trouble that ensued there was a killing. He was then given Is years in the peni- tentiary, nearly 10 of which be served.
 The negro in addition to taking with him from the grim penitentiary walls the tidy sum he had earned from making trinkets, horn canes and bead strings, had also a new suit of clothes, furnished by the territory, and railroad ticket to Ash Fork.
 Sheriff brown was in the city yes terday en route to his home from Florence. He had taken three mur- derers to the penitentiary. They were William P. Byrnes, who brutally beat David Dallatory to death with a club and received life sentence. for --s fearful crime; Alberto Herrera, who received sentence of 25 years for shooting another Mexican, and Inolan Beecher, who was sentenced to 20 years for killing a Chinaman.
 Particular interest attached to the trial of Beecher as he pleaded the unwritten law or "dementia Ameri- cana" as his defense. The jury, however, decided that the defense was not well founded and Beecher was found guilty ol murder in the second degree.
 Discussing Mohave county condi- tions, Sheriff Brown stated that the outlook in that section was never brighter. Mining is rapidly revivIng and the residents are corresponding ly happy.

WILL RESIGN POSI-
 TON AS GOVERNOR

SANTA FEE, N. M, Oct 28.-That he will retire from the office of gov ernor of New Mexico some time in the early spring in order to devote his time to private business pursuits is the statement given by Governor George Curry this afternon. The gov ernor's determination to retire from the office is final and all of the representations of his friends have not served to change his plans. It has been known for some time among the governors more intimate friends that he urgently desired to leave the office as soon as he could properly do so in order to take advantage of some important business opportunities which have been presented to him during the past few months and to them his announcement today will not come as a surprise.
 Following the recent visit of Secre- tary Ballinger to Santa Fe and the cordial understanding resulting from that meeting as to all more important matters of administration in the ter ritory, it had been hoped that the governor could be induced to remain in the office. He has, however, talk en up the matter of his retirement with President Taft and the secretary of the interior and now expects that it will be made possible for him to leave the office some time in the early spring, probably during March.
 The announcement will be received with very sincere regret throughout New Mexico. Governor Curry f.om the beginning of his administration has been very popular with the peo- pie; his administration has received general approval among men of all classes and political faiths, and dur ing his comparatively brief tenure of the office he has inaugurated a mum Der of important reforms and ad- vances in the administration of terri torial affairs which will prove of last ing benefit to the territory and the new state.
 That the relations of the governor with the administration at Washing ton have been entirely satisfactory to both was amply shown during the re- cent visit of President Taft and the subsequent visit of Secretary Ballin- ger, when the latter's cordial expres- sions to the governor removed the last possible basis for the rumors put in circulation by political busybodies to the effect that there had been lack of accord between the governor and the department.
 Both President Taft and Secretary Ballinger have publicly expressed con fidence in the governor and regret at his desire to return from the office

LEAVES PEN
 WITH A BANK ROLL
CFrom Fridays DaIly)

Having served nearly 10 years in the territorial penitentiary for a kill ing at Winslow for which he was sem fenced to 15 years in the penal in- stitution, Arthur Daniels, colored, walked through the gates of the penal institution a free man once more, car rying in his jeans 5000 in real cash yesterday.
 Good conduct had gained for him more than five years in time and as a result his sentence was most ma terially shortened.
 Never was there a eolored man eating a luscious Georgia watermelon known to wear a broader smile than the one which adorned the face of Daniels as he walked up the main street of Florence.
 Noticing Sheriff Walter Brown of Mohave county, who after ten con secutive years in office as the chief peace officer of the northwestern county, enjoys the distinction of be- ing the longest office-holder in this line, the negro raised his hat.
 "That is certainly a good negro. He must come from the south," was the comment of the sheriff.

J. s. Gales returned to the city Thursday from a months trip on business and pleasure to San Fran cisco. He speaks in the most enthus- tic and agreeable manner of the big celebration of the Portola fes- tival held in that city and says that from a spectacular and historical event it outclassed any similar csle- bration given on the Pacific coast. It was estimated that over 750,000 visitors were in that city and ths mass of humanity was the greatest that has ever been seen west of the Rockies. The scene was an inspiring one and the days of the Spanish crusade were vividly recalled and beautifully illustrated.

and their confidence is shown by the fact that during the two years of his administration he has never been called upon to explain any of his of ficial acts or to respond to charges of any kind. But for the insistency of those who have sought to make it unpleasant for him it is not improb- able that the governor would have asked to be relieved of the governor ship some time ago.
 The governor will devote the months between now and the spring in carrying out the work he has be- gun. He is deeply interested in the policy of territorial road construction which he inaugurated and desires to see that work fully launched before he retires. During his administration number of important improvements in the capitol and other public build ings will have been carried out and there are several other even more i'm portant reforms and changes which he desires to perfect before leaving the office. When these are done Gov ernor Cury will enter private busi- ness, probably making his home at Tularosa, in Otero county, although he has made no statement positively to this effect

HIGHWAY SURVEY IS
 NEARLY COMPLETED
Excellent Progress on Preliminary Work For Public Road From Northern
 To Southern Arizona
CFrom Saturdays Daily

Territorial Engineer Girand a few days ago made the statement that the north and south Arizona high way was practically under operation, so far as a definite survey was to be considered from Prescott to the Maricopa county line.
 Engineer Parker is now engaged in running a line south from the Bully BuenO divide to a point near Towers Peak in the BrRdshaws and when he reaches the latter point the corps from the sOutn would make con nection with him at the latter point. MT. Girand says that the route from Columbia to the Towers Peak has not been practically decided upon and in a few days he will inspect that field and give his final decision.
 From Prescott to Minnehahs Fiat the line is definitely run and as mentioned some weeks ago in the Journal-Miner the Senator hill is not traversed but the lower saddle in the eastern end of Mount Union is passed

over. To date the maximum grade run is but six per cent and this wlll be maintained through the county. Elevated points are traversed and the gulch sections are eliminated wher- ever it is possible to do so.
 MT. Girand also says that plans have been finished for the bridge to cross the Gila at Florence, which will be on the territorial highway and in a short time public funds will be available for the construction of it. The Verde bridge in a few days will also come in for consideration and it is Mir. Girand's intention to go to that stream next week and select 8 site for it to cross near Camp Verde.
 Incoming taxes for the year will be applied for the movement as fast as they are available and the opinion is advanced that this winter material work will follow the movement to construct the great highway and in which Yavapai county will be the first to receive recognition.

SALE IS COMPLETED FOR
 TWO BI GPRoPERTIES
lFrom Fridays panyl

During his recent trip to Boston and other eastern centers, William Nellis, the well known mining opera tor, closed negotiations for the sale of two splendid mining groups near Mayer to eastern capitalists.
 The claims disposed of are the Picnic and the Raymond, situated about two miles west of Mayer, on which considerable development is shown and the rating of the property established. With the limited de- velopment the attractive mineral con ditions in evidence warranted the sale and in a short time the intention is to begin an extensive system of ex- ploitation and to reach great depth.
 The deepest shaft on the group is 500 feet and the metals carried in the ores show gold to predominate with silver and copper values. In late years this boon has attracted con siderable attention and the desirabil ity of the above groups with the work in evidence revives the interest that outside capital is eager to grasp.
 The future operation of the above properties will be placed in the hands of F. E. Small, general manager of the Brooklyn-Arizona, which in it. self is a favorable consideration to be extended the new purchase.
 The closing of this deal is a favor able move not alone to the particular property taken over, but likewise does it bring into prominence a new and inviting section that has excellent in- dications at every point opened.
 In speaking of the eastern ex- pressions over the affairs of the Brooklyn-Arizona enterprise to the southeast of Mayer, MT. Nellis says he found the Boston investors very enthusiastic, sharing in this respect the universal opinion entertained in this section of Arizona for the pro- ject. At the present time the base of operations of this gigantic mining enterprise is the scene of active life in every department. Heavy maehin- cry for mine work is being placed on the property and the intention is to construct one of the largest smelling plants in the county. With the first class equipment on the property mine development progresses satisfactorily and the permanency of the proposi- tion is now generally a settled fact.
 MT. Nellis also says he found an interesting situation facing him dur ing his trip to Boston regarding Ari- zona is to be considered in a general sense.
 In speaking of the mining sentl- ment he was also pleased to say that this field was coming into promi- nent consideration. The methods of operating in this field were given ap- proval. He believes that in the future heavy investments will follow. Mining investments he reports as of the most favorable channel and the remarks from the industry through out the west indicates that an era never before experienced will result through the desire of capital to be- come identified with it in the future
 MT. Nellis was accompanied on the eastern trip and the return to Pres colt by Mrs. Nellis. They will leave this morning for Mayer, where he has mining interests to look after for the next few weeks.
