Statement Important.

The statement is especially important
as coming from Mr.. AsquiIh. Though
he has always remained faithful In prin-
ciple TO home rule he has been supposed
cooi on the subject, dreading its diff
cultles. and he was one Of tne liberals
who at the last election was 80 anxious
to connne the issue 20 free trade that
he piedeed himself not TO propose home
rule in the fun sense Of the words in
the present parliament. That was one
Of the reasons why Mr.. Henry CAM
bell -Bannerman brought in so poor "A
measure of home rule as the councils
bill.
This utterance proves that MI AS
quith has done with these hesitations:
that he accepts now the Irish program
OF complete ';rme rule, and when Mr..
Asquith speaks thus il means that he
commits the whole Liberal party and
every Liberal candidate who Is his loyal
supporter tC fun home rule.

Record of Liberal Party Taken by
Many AS Not Inspiring of Con-
fdence in Pledges.
BY 7. c. WELLIVER.

Irish nen in Washington are divided
in opinion concerning the great speech
Of Premier Asquith last night. IN which
he promised home rule for Ireland in
case the Liberal party is returned to
power an the forthcoming general cleo
ton.
An influential section Of Irish-Ameri-
cans protest that repeated disarpoint-
ments have justified doubts of the sin
certify OF liberal promises.
Record Not Inspiring.
Premier Asquiths own record in this
matter is not such as TO command the
entire confidence OF Irishmen. who fear
that he may even now be talking in
gensfalities, and that when it comes TO
the scratch, after he has secured the
cooperation of the Irish parliamentary
party in getting back to power. he will
fail to come forward with proper home
rule measure and push IT,
In this regard the local Irishmru are
rather at odds with ''Tay Pay" OCon-
nor, Irish parliamentary leader. .ho is

DEAL IS COMPLETED
 FOB LIBERTY GROUP
CFrom Thursdays DaIIy)

NFrOm InQTs0ayB Oa1lyJ
 Yesterday the taking over of the Liberty group of mining claims near the Clara Consolidated, was eonsum- mated in this city. J. A. Britton, @ mining man of Los Angeles, negotiat- ed the transfer.
 In speaking of the deal MT. Brit ton says the property has had eonsid- erable development given it, and while the limited work shows up well ih gold and silver values, the opinion of the men who acquire the new lO- cations is that it has the best evi- denees of any group in that field, depth considered. The intention cd the new company is to place a large force at work as soon as arrangs- ments to that end are perfected.
 The Liberty group is situated oa the Bill Williams Fork, and sdioins the Van Britt Copper Mines company, of which Newton Evans of Los An geles, is the president. On this lat ter property over $4O,OO0 in develop ment has been expended to date and the force of miners has never been discontinued from the acquiring of the ground to the present time. The above groups are located about iK miles from Swansea and after the railroad reaches that point from Bouse, the expectations are to plass a big force of men at work and the erection of reduction works is also to be taken up. MT. Britton expects to leave for Los Angeles after @ brief visit to the above property to arrange for the working of the vari- ous claims this winter.

OUTLOOK PLEASING IN
 SURROUNDING DISTRICTS

Returning from an official trip { few days ago to the Octave ana Congress sections, Sheriff Smith stat ed that in the last few months there has prevailed a noted change in tht industrial life of that mining field.
 While in that section he visited Fools Gulch district and at the Ava rado camp was surprised to see the activity going on there. This prop erty is in operation and the force o1 miners at work will reach a total of fifty.
 The plant of this company is not running at the present time, but ex tensive development is being done The reports in circulation there are to the effect that the underground conditions are better than at any time in the past history of the en- terprise and the intention is to carry out the work of exploitation for sev. eral months before the mill will be put in operation.
 At the Octave 8 number of miners were placed at work recently, and the sacking and shipping of high grade ore is going on. The intention was to soon increase the force and carry on a general system of develop ment. It was reported that a new and rich strike had recently been made and it was probable that in a short time the entire surface and un- der ground departments would be run ming with a normal force.
 Reports from the Golden Ridge stated a rich strike had taken place and the enterprise is running with a large force of men. Work has recent ly been resumed on this property and the development attending is favor ably commented upon in mining cir cles generally in that field.
 Sheriff Smith says that at other points in that gold region more min ing work was going on than in months and in addition to the prominence of the field many investors were going to it to examine claims.
 At the Congress the steady flow of bullion and the regular weekly ship ment of concentrates is maintained. It is also reported from that place that in a short time some important developments were under considera- ton and the steady running of the big mill was among the possibilities. The mine work progresses under satis- factory conditions and the perma- nency of the place for years to come is a settled fact.

HAMMOND PLANS MoHAvE
 MERGER IS REPORT

DENVER, Colo, Oct. 27.-A crowd, at the head of which is John Hays Hammond and Chester Beatty, is un- derstOod to be formulating plans for acquiring control of and amalgamat- ing several large gold properties in the San Francisco district, Mohave county, Arizona. The Tom Reed, Bi Metal, Gold Road and other proven mines in addition to a number of promising adjacent prospects will comprise the consolidated property. It is also mentioned, that, should the merger be effected, a centrally lO- eated milling plant capable of handl- ing the entire product of the mines will be built, the plant to have a capacity that will later permit MT. Hammond and associates accepting the ores of the whole district for treatment, thus assuring this section unprecedented activity.
 The reports also say MT. Hammond will construct a railroad to connect with the Santa Fe main line. All needed power is quite available, there being powerful power generating plants located at Kingman, Ariz., and at Needles, Cal
 MT. Hammond, it is stated, will shortly make another trip to MOhave eountv in connection xifh tha daaI and it is expected that something more definite will be learned as to the big project.
 F. A. Keith, formerly of the To nopah Mining company, who is one of MT. Hammond's chief heutenants, has just completed an inspection of the Tom Reed property, and it is un- derstood that he was favorably i'm pressed with the showing. The Bi Metal mine, winch MT. Hammond in spected several weeks ago, is now being examined by a corps of engi neegs in charge of Francis E. Young of Boston under MT. Hammond's or ders, and a thorough sampling of the property will be made. At the In- stigation of MT. Hammond, J. F. Berry of the United States geological survey is understood to be making a study of the geology of this and other properties which will be includ- ed in the contemplated merger.

VALUABLE PRODUCT.

Ed. Wager reached the city Thurs day from a visit to the properties of the Tiptop-Heath Mining company in the spur of the Bradshaws. He gives an excellent account of the develop ment of the ground and brings a quantity of tungsten ore of which there is an immense tonnage on the dumps of the old Tiptop mine, that was never treated in the early days of milling on that property. This character of ore is only found in this property to any extent in all of the extensive mining operations of this territory and in addition to it's rarity it is also of the highest grade in percentage that is found anywhere. MT. Wager is an enthusiast over the old ground and his company is en- deavoring to install a concentrating plant to treat this and the silver values.

VETERAN GENERAL PRE-
 PARED FOR LONG RIDE
CFrom Fridays DanvN

Georal E. D. Thomas after several days in the city and at Fort Whip pie, left yesterday for Fort Huachuea, where he will make his annual inspec- tion of that post. He was accom- panied by his chief of staff, Captain Gujot. A short stop will be made at Phoenix, where he will be the guest of several prominent residents of the capital city.
 During General Thomas trip to Huachuca he will get into the sad dle for an endurance ride of 90 miles, following the practice of the cavalry service officers who are or dered to do this duty every year.
 This act on the part of General Thomas is a voluntary one, the dis cipline of the service not calling for a commanding general to go through this ordeal.
 Accompanying this officer to the south were Lieutenants Sampson, W. H. Doyle, George C.. West. After re- turning to Prescott in a few weeks General Thomas will continue his visit for several days more before proceed ing to Denver, his headquarters.

MURDERED MUST SPEND
 LIFE BEHIND BARS

At the recent term of court in Mo have county one of the most sensa- tional murder cases ever on the erim- inal docket of northern Arizona was that of W. T. Byrnes, tried for the murder of David Dallatory and sen fenced to life imprisonment for the crime.
 It was a case in which all people took a decided interest owing to the prominence of the murdered man and the wanton and brutal manner in which his life was taken. The evil dence introduced showed that several years ago DallatOry, a member of the Western Federation of Miners at the time, questioned the motives of Byrnes in his relation with that or ganization.
 On the evening of April 24th last, Byrnes saw an opportunity for re- venge and murdered his victim in the dark. He prepared for the crime by entering the Health Office saloon at Gold Roads at o'clock and took from the draining board behind the bar a wagon spoke, which he placed on the outside of the building, await ing the coming out of Dallatory. At g o'clock that night the latter passed and while in the rear of that saloon going to his cabin, he was assaulted by Byrnes and his skull crushed to a jelly.
 When the case went to the jury it was the general belief that Byrnes would pay the death penalty, but owing to one of the jurors protest ing against a death verdict, a com promise was reached saving him from the moose.
 At the time of MT. Dallatory's murder he was the secretary of the Snow Flake Miners union, a branch of the Western Federation of Miners. He was regarded in employing circles as a careful and conscientious man, the union being regarded as eOmpose1 of some of the best men and miners in that section of Arizona
 So strong was the feeling against Byrnes that the board of supervisors were ased to engage special eoun- sel to prosecute the man and E. s. Clark of this city was asked to as- sist in that duty and was selected by that miners union to be associated with District Attorney Morroney. Ar rivals from Kngman say that after the concluding argument was given by MT. Clark there was an unusual demonstration in the court room for his masterly address and the able manner he and Mir. Marroney handled the case from beginning to end. The verdict rendered by the jury was well received by the people of that county, the only regret expressed was that the gallows did not have an opportunity to figure in the carrying out of the law.
 The retaining of MT. Clark in this celebrated case was later followed out by the board by his association in all other criminal cases on the calendar for that term in which he assisted MT. Marroney. Convictions were had in every case with the exception of one, twelve convictions being secured.

FENCE DIFFICULTY NOW
 THING or THE PAST
CFrom Thursday. DaIlyl

Yesterday an amicable settlement was reached in the county roadway route through the Whipple reserva- tion by the consultation between Gen eral Thomas, the commander of the department, and Messrs. Harrington and Smith of the board of super visors, each of whom were at the site of the disputed strip.
 As exclusively mentioned several days ago in the Journal Miner, the in tentions of the war department were concisely outlined, agreeing to a change in the route of the fence and receding from the former survey. This gives the county highway 8 strip fifty feet in the clear from the bed of Granite creek and the allotment was received with satisfaction by the civil authorities.
 District Attorney Ross was advised to this effect and the injunction pro- ceedings that have been hanging over the filing of the fence contract by William Nelson, will be ordered dis missed. General Thomas in this mat ter ever since reaching the city a week ago has maintained a very friendly spirit in the controversy that has arisen over this matter. It is probably due to his strong repre- sentations that the civil people ac- quire the ground and that the ex- pense of constructing 8 highway over new ground and on difficult grades, will be saved the county.
 Some additional expense will follow the change in the route of the road so far as the cost of removing the barn and other buildings of A. G. Oliver is to be considered. In thIs connection General Thomas suggested to Messrs. Smith and Harrington that the county should bear this expense. This will probably be ordered.
 With the exception of the south western side lines of the post, Whip pie is closed in and the gap that is open was the disputed strip. This will be enclosed in a few days and the trouble of bovine trespassing in the future will be eliminated. The desire of the military is to improve their domain and the cultivation of plots is especially desired. Under the open conditions prevailing in the past this was impossible and considerable destruction to property followed the running at large of horses and cattle.

COMPLETENESS
 PROVES VERY COSTLY

'ood prices for commodities are a
 ided encouragement to the finane-
 of enterprises designed to pro-
 those commodities. Not only do
 'sPerOus conditions attract capital,
 they are apt to render profits to
 ef-established ventures sufficient to
 able them to complete themselves
 reduce their economies to T level
 table for less prosperous times,
 vs the Denver Mining Record.
 The truth of this general statement
 nowhere more apparent than in
 copper industry. In a great many
 ses the metal must be produced
 a large scale to earn profits at II, even in good times, while during
 'riods of low prices for bullion the
 hest efficiency is necessary to keep nch enterprises going. A half com
 !eted copper venture of the large
 ale type, if caught in this position
 a period of depression, such as ''e country has recently experienced, s apt to gain the reputation of being T failure, since an enterprise is not onsidered good unless it can operate, Q some extent at least, during eriti- al times. The fact may be that the failure of venture during such times is due solely to its incompleteness.
 The penalty of incompleteness for great many otherwise valuable cor. per mines is the sense of inefficicnev when prices for the product are low and therefore close to the figures at which these ventures are able to make bullion. This sense of ineffieieney is emphasized by enforced idleness. For tunate, indeed, is the copper-mining company that, encouraged by a per iod of good markets, can secure its ultimate efficiency before the low price comes to cripple it. It avoids the bad reputation that comes from a suspension of work, and it cuts out the delay of several years, perhaps, that must ensue until a business re- vival opens out before it. As n example, certain copper venture, In a hslf-complete condition, may be able to produce at 12 cents a pound, with the ultimate expectation, when in a completed position, of produc- ing at 12 cents a pound. During tie late panic, 12 cents in costs could yield nothing, while 10 cents in costs would have enabled most enterprises to operate, to some extent at least.
 Now that the country's condition s opening out into one of prosperity and much higher prices for copper may be expected, it is certain that a great number of such ventures, already half complete, will be found working out their final destiny. Some of these ventures have been reorganized oe- cause they were not finished before far ahad. It will be the part of wis dom for old as well as the new 10 remember past experiences and make good use of a period when higher price levels may enable them to in- vest profits, as well as outside capi- tai, in fixed economies. It is net inconeeivable that the developments of the immediate future will make even greater economies necessary un- der the competitive conditions of the next downward swing.
