SCOTLAND MARKET REPORT.

Mrs. r. W. Anderson and child
rem left last Thursday for their
home at Avery, idaho. They got
as far as Missoula, Mont, Satur-
day but we're stopped there by the
forest fires which had burned out
ten railroad bridges between that
place and Avery, and which, re-
ports say, have done much dam
age to the town of Avery. A tele-
gram received by her father, j. M.
Dunmire, Tuesday stated that they
were safe and that they might re-
turn east. Some anxiety was felt
for Mr.. Anderson who was at Ave-
ry, and a considerable loss of life
is reported from that place, but
from the telegram it is supposed
that Mrs. Anderson has heard from
him and that he is safe.
Later.-Mrs. Anderson returned
this morning from Missoula. She
says the reports we're that % Of
the 81 bridges between M~issoula
and Avery we're destroyed making
further progress on her journey
impossible, although she was with
in two hours run of her destina-
ton. She was unable to get any
direct communication with her
husband at Avery, but learned in
directly through railroad men that
he was safe. When she reached
Mobridge a message reached her
stating that communication with
Avery had been secured by way
of Los Angeles, CAL, and that no
damage had been done in the town.
She also learned while there that
a bridge this side of Missoula had
been destroyed soon after her train
passed over it. The reports in the
papers this morning state that q
heavy snow on the mountains and
rain in the valleys covering the
Occur d'Alene district and extend,
ing as far east as Helena, has done
much toward bringing the fires I'M
der control.

SILVER STRIKE IN
 NORTHERN YUMA
Old WOmdn'S Mountain is the Scene of a Rich Find Toward Which
 Many Are Rushing.
A Parker dispatch says:


 There has been considerable ex- citement in mining circles the past week over a rich strike reported to have been made in the Old Woman's mountains, sixteen miles from Milli- gan, station on the Parker divis- ion of the Santa Fe railroad. About a dozen outfits have left Parker for the scene ot the new discovery, and it is said prospectors and mining men from all directions are begin ming to arrive there.
 The original discovery was made about two weeks ago by A. B. Day and Scott Price, two well known prospectors from Nevada. Both gen. tlemen formerly lived in Searchlight, and have been identified with a num- Der of more prominent camps of the Sagebrush State.
 About a week or ten days ago Day and Price came to Parker and had shipped to MillIgan about four tons of camp supplies They exhibited red specimens of ore while here, but were not telling where they found the ledge from which the samples were taken, except to a few, and these they requested to remain quiet for a time, as they wanted to make addi- tiOnal locations.
 According to assays in Parker the ore carries nearly 300 ounces of sil- yer, about F per cent copper, a large percentage in lead and some gold values. Mir. Day stated that the ore averaged approximately S2OO per ton and that there was big ledge of it outcropping on the surface several hundred feet in length and from six to eight feet in width. The country, he said, was highly mineralized for miles around the original discovery.

CHEERIGN WORDS
 FROM CALIFORNIA
The Los Angeles Express" a Gener OuS Republican Paper, Speaks
 in AriZOna'S Behalf.

The Los Angeless Express, a pro- gressive republican paper, has this to say in regard to Arizona's constitu- tion being turned down by the pow CTS that be-,
 'It were an offense to Arizona's powers of observation to inquire whether or not that budding. state has observed the results of the cleo tion and the significance of their teachings with relation to the chan ces for acceptance of the progress sive constitution.
 "We doubt not that Arizona appre- ciatively recognizes that the rejec- tion. of its constitution because it was progressive would rouse a tempest in the Union compared with which this last election would be accounted as mild as Quaker meeting. Arizona will be admitted to the Union, and it's Constitution-in referen dunn, recall and all-fnd an acceptance, or, suffering rejection and postpone meut, knit together in the next na- tional campaign all the progressive forces of the republic.
 "Unless reaction has gone mad ut terly, we should say that the results of the elections held November 8th will be as So much helpful grease on the ways down which Arizona will slide on launching day into state hood waters. Should this conjecture prove erroneous, and should reaction have learned nothing from the up- heavel of the month, and statehood postponement follow, Arizona may count with confidence on the fact that no candidate for federal office in the next campaign, from presi- dent down to congressman, through out the Union will receive progress sive support who does not pledge himself to stand by the rejected Ari- zona constitution"

 CUSSES IN VERSE
Eccentric KeSterners Would Fain Ac- Cept Modern Innovations and
 BaniSh Pioneer Thoughts.

Tbe uniuviting plains of the west have their inexplainable charms, the frowning mountains allure and en- tice one into their forbidding still ness; the more hazardous the undertaking the more enchanting becomes the almost i'm penetrable hills, and the Moses of Progress plods less as to vicisitudes, performing a mission for humanity that seldom meets with reward. To sue h char acters is Arizona indebted for the building up of such a grand com monwealth. We have them with us yet. They delight to sing of the days gone by, recount the chivalry of associates and point with pride to that which has been accomplished by others. "Turn back oh, Time in your flight, and make me child again just flor tonight" is waited on the breezes from out the canyons. The hoary-headed pioneer would not turn back page that he has been instrumental in inditing; he would only ask for an extension on his too prayers more fully answered. The work of the pioneer is of such mag nitude that the historian to come will find words inadequate to pay tribute to his worth and valor, but recording his deeds point to the marts of commerce, the fields ot grain, commodious school houses, roaring furnaces, and churches with spires pointed heayenward, all the work of the pioneer, without whose aid such achievements would not have been accomplished. The old timer is justified in looking back over his shoulder, and that, in part, is why the COPPER ERA reproduces the following anent the eccentricities of an Oklahoma pioneer, who swears in verse, but withal, like the pioneer of Arizona, loves his fellowman:-
 In some degrees every man is a poet, said Scott Cummins, 'The Pill grim Bard,' who writes verse and farms and stands in his doorway and halls travellers to stop and eat din- ner with him. Cummins lives near the village of Winchester, on the Salt Fork of the Arkansas river, in Woods county. He went there as a pioneer and hOmesteaded his claim. He dwells still in his dugout home, with it's rafters of heavy logs. His is snug retreat. No winter storm blows cold enough to chill the com fort of this dugout.
 "Cummins came to Oklahoma from Barber county, Kansas, where he lived in the days when the Cheyenne Indians used to make things lively on the Kansas border. All his life Cummins has written verse, and verse better than most country poets write. In his poems Cummins describes the plains country of the west, with its melancholy and monotony. He was a buffalo hunter in the old days, and even as a buffalo hunter he wrote verse. Tom McNeal of Kansas says that Cummins used to swear in verse. It was of those days that Cummins wrote, retrOspectively:-
