WONDER IF SUIT
WILL BE STARTED
FUSE WHICH WAS LIGHTED AT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING CON-
CORNING BIG SLOUGH DRAIN
ExcITEs CURIOSITY or MANY
INTERESTED IN MATTER.

"Will a suit be started to test the
validity of proceedings connected with
the big slough drain, and at the same
time make the warrants that have
been issued on this waterway, not
worth the paper that they are written
on?'
This was question heard yesterday,
following the discussion at the meeting
OF the city council the evening prev
ious, when it was intimated, at least,
that such might be the case. The ma
jority of the members of the city
council, knew absolutely nothing con-
corning the proposition. only one or
two members Of the present body serv-
ed when the drain was petitioned for
and was ordered constructed by the
drainage commission.
Seventy-nine per cent of the cost OF
this waterway was taxed against the
municipality OF Fargo direct. The re-
naming 21 per cent was taxed against
the lots and parcels of land that were
directly benefited-including the prop
erty in the immediate vicinity Of the
waterway.
If a suit is started-and there are
many who believe that such will rot
be the case-some owner Of land
against which the 81 per cent is taxed,
or else some private tax payer, who
will come in for share OF the 10 per
cent, is to be taxed, will be the plain
tiff. The city, as municipality, will
take no step to invaidate the proceed
ings and knock out the payment of
warrants issued for work that has been
performed. The matter will be watch
ed with interest by many who have
heard and read considerable concern
ing the drain,

TO OBSERVE DURUM DAY
Several Methods Suggested by Which
North Dakota May Enter Into
the Spirit of Boosting.

With Governor Burke's proclama-
tion fixing Thursday, Oct. T., as durum
day, the people of the state are be-
ginning to cast about for methods
whereby they may properly observe
the spirit of the day. According to the
proclamation issued the dey is TO be
devoted to the encouragement of the
production and consumption Of durum
wheat with the hope OF increasing it's
market value.
The durum wheat day proclamation
was issued in accordance with the ac-
ton OF the meeting of the grain
growers of Minnesota, North Dakota
and South Dakota, at Fargo last June,
when they passed a resolution asking
the governors Of said states to set
aside particular day for dlrum.
The need of special day for the
bringing OF durum wheat before the
public forcibly is the fact that at
present the raisers OF durum must
market that grain at much lower
price than other wheats. This differ
ence, the grain growers declare, is
unwarranted and they are making ef-
forts to boost the durum prices.
The manner in which Governor
Burke hopes for the observation OF
the day Is by the use OF durum wheat
produce in the homes Of every North
Daikotan on that day. Some one ar
ticle OF each meal during that day,
the governor hopes, will be made out
of durum -four, and If tl1as is done IL
is believed that a great step will have
been taken to place the cereal Ia good
standing in this state.
Socials and harvest home festivals
al which products from durum wheat
shall be exhibited in friendly contest
are also suggested by Governor
Burke as a means for gaining the
looked for result.

Big Strike in the Anzona-Michiean.

A Benson dispatch says: Though the Arizona X Michigan Development Co. struck the second enrichment in its deepest workings over two weeks ago, and has been sinking in it ever since, its great import only began to dawn on the people of Johnson a few days ago when attention was attracted by the rich ore being taken from the in- cline shaft.
 After inspecting the great blocks of ore now being taken out, and eXamin- ing the ore which was extracted pre- vious to the late strike. it appears that the Arizona X Michigan Develop ment company has penetrated the sec ond enrichment of copper ore.

Fink Shelter is a Success.

At II o'clock yesterday morning, un- der the direction of Mir. Fink, the in ventor, the new process shelter built by Samuel Newhouse at Arthur, half a mile from Garfield, was blown in. Further than saying that the test was highly satisfactory, neither owner nor inventor desired to express himself last night, hut that both were quite elated over the matter was evident when both men were seen at the New house residence last evening. 'We will not make any statements immedi- ately," stated Mir. Newhouse to the Herald reporter, ''eXcept that we are well satisfied with the test. The smell ter was blown in at II o'clock and in two hours and for all the rest of the day, the desired degree of heat was obtained and kept up with less than two tons of slack coal. This ordinarily would have required the burning of a great number of tons of coal. Within few days we will be able to give out some interesting information concern ing this matter, I believe. ."-Salt Lake Herald.

Although work is slack at domestic shipyards, tonnage under contract will call for the consumption of 6,OOO,OOO lbs. of lake, electrolytic and casting copper within a year. The navy yards. ordnance works and the mint are consuming annually about l2,0OO,OOO lbs. of copper. The ship repairing plants on both oceans and along the Great Lakes are working up about lO,- OOO,OOO lbs. of copper year in various forms of bronze and brass.

licious camp in Arizona, have more or less leached appearance, showing that the action of water, pecolating slowly through them for centuries, has taken part of the copper in solution to lower depths: while the ore now being taken out is not leached in appearance, but rich and lustrous in heavy copper sulphides, black. yellow and rainbow hued.
 Ed. Johnson, an old timer in John son. who has watched the different mining operations of the district, said this was an important thing for the whole district. He said other mining men had gophered around and taken ore from near the surface, but feared 10 70 down deeper after more, less they might expend more than they could get back.
 The A. M. D. Co. has boldly gone down. after reaching a depth where others had stopped, and now the cour- ageous adventure has been rewarded by very tangible results which will en- courage others who are able to do like wise.
 The latest report is that the entire shaft is bottomed in ore of the second enrichment. and not only the bottom but the sides also. No foot-wall or hanging-wall is in sight. and as the formation dips about 40 degrees, al d the shaft follows the dip, its roof is J. ward the hanging wall, and this roof is now rich salphide ore, just like the best of that being taken out, so there is no telling what the extent of this ore body is.

Mines in Yuma County Showing Up
 We'll.

Martin Edwards, interested with Charles Sam in the IrOnwood claim near Kofa, came in yesterday alter noon with a few ounces of the maln lead of their mine taken from the ledge which they have uncovered at depth of 25O feet, and into which they have penetrated 22 feet. They never drilled through the vein, but have changed the works and are sinking on it. The sample that he has brought in came from q depth of 20 feet on this last strike, and it leaves a long string when burned that would indicate a value of at least lOOS per ton, and may go much higher.
 The freight business between the Moha xk station and the King of Ari- zona mines always was large, but of late years it is growing 50 that the man who held the contract to deliver the goods has been looking for a cheaper meaLs of making the delivery. That means is now found, and as soon
 
 as the machines can be placed on the ground Mr. Norton will have three large twenty-horse traction trucks placed on the run. These big machines are guaranteed to haul, over ten per cent grades, ton to the horse power, and can do much better than that. The fuel used will be gasoline and the saving in feed and worry over the old style of mule team hauls will be very great.
 Experts were seen on their way to Kofa country yesterday, who are going to look at the Max Engasser claims, which lie six miles east of the King of Arizona, and which have had very much development work done on them. These properties were located in lSS3 and have been worked continuously ever since, but only in the way of de- velopment, not as mine. It is said to show up very fine in gold and cop per, and the owner thinks that he has something that will place him beyond the fear of want forever and a day. | Yuma Sun.

Copper Going Into Ships.

The three big battleships recently launched in Great Britain, Belle rophon, Temeraire and Superb, will consume 3,65O,OOO lbs of American lake and electrolytic copper, and l,OOO,OOO lbs will be required for each of the three big battleships whose keels are to be laid at once in England. For ac- count of the men-of-war on the stocks of Continental Europe, 19,0O0,O lbs. of lake and electrolytic copper will be needed within a year. The mercantile marine contracts under way in Euro pean yards will consume 57,0O0,0O0 lbs. of copper within year.

Big Mining Sale.

Col. J. c. Denton, of Bouse, has concluded the sale of the Manipulator group of copper claims, embracing the Little Butte, to Louis Compton, pub fisher of the Financier of New York, and J. E. Myer. a Los Angeles broker. Experts examined the property and the purchasers bought only after satls- fying themselves of its value. The price paid is not divulged, but it is not to exceed lOO,OOOS. This is the third big sale Col. Denton has put through within the last sixty days in this camp, and as it assures big capi- tai for development, all are facing the new year with high hopes.-Yuma Sun.
