IT II l. edltor Oh lhe SeCll Deiho-
crat continues his somewhat
amusing efforts to create dis
cord in the ranks OF the mo license"
people, while evidently acting as the
spokesman OF the license forces. When
he says the liquor interests are ef-
fecting an organization and expect to
raise large campaign fund with
which to make the fight, we can give
full credence to his utterance, for we
have no doubt the editor OF the De-
mocr&t is in a position to receive first
and inside information" as to the
terests."
AT the same time we cannot under
stand where he or his license asso-
ciates can find any reasonable ground
for encouragement in the outlook
for the approaching campaign. They
can produce no argument for a return
to license, which was not produced in
the campaign four years ago, when
license was DECISIVELY defeated.
There seems to be no reason for, or
evidence of, the change of single
vote from the mo license" to the I'll
cense column. On the other hand.
there have unquestionably been re-
cruits for the ranks of those who be-
lieve we had best continue as we are.
A notable instance has just been
t,eNt,r,I,+ 20 h..
from the headquarters OF the Anti
Saloon League, wherein the Superin-
tendent, William H. Anderson, quotes
Governor Crothers as a hopeful and
helpful influence for the future. If
this means that the Governor is with
the mo license people in this county
this Fall, it ought to bring just that
much additional strength to the cause.
The Governor has never been gotten
on record on this issue, heretofore
He has managed to side-step it so
successfully as to leave everybody in
doubt as to how he himself has voted
on it, if he has voted on it at all If
now he can be counted amongst the
public and avowed supporters OF the
no license cause, not only with his
own vote, but with his extended in
tuence. it certainly cannot fail to be
a very decided gain--a gain. which
added to the former majority for no
license" ought to make the victory
easy and overwhelming
In forecasting this increasing guar
autee OF victory. we are not overlook

oCToGENARIAN IS
 READY FOR RACE
rFrom Thursdays pailyl

"Pard" Pierce, one of the best known of the Hassayampa colony, ar rived in the city yesterday from the Santa, Maria, and was given a cordial greeting by his many friends.
 He is one of the prominent veter- ans of the Civil War, and with the other "boys" of the Grand Army, is at Sawtelle, near Los Angeles, in the Soldiers Home. He is on leave for few months, and during the recess he took advantage of the time to go 10 his old home to look the situation over in mining ground that he owns, and incidentally, to do the annual assessment work on several claims. He will remain but a few. days.
 Speaking of that government insti- tuition, he says it is perfect in every respect and one of the grandest places out of doors. He has as associates many old soldiers who formerly re- sided in this city, mentioning Win throp and William Rowe, George Berry, George Augustine, John Crel- lin and many others, including Joe Schuler, who resides in a private resi- dence out from the home, all of whom are in splendid shape, physie- ally.
 MT Pierce is now in the octogenar- ian class, and it will be recalled of his advanced years, that he threw the gauntlet down to another, last year for a foot race, taking the stand that tobacco. "revivers, in moderate doses, and other Hassayampa refresh ments did not shatter the frame like his adversary eontended, but on the contrary, are conducive to the staying qualities of one's physique, in a foot race or any other test of endurance, for "money or marbles" So the doctor and foot racer weakened and the jig was off in the race.
 In this trip to the old district, MT. Pierce, at over eighty years of age, rolled up his sleeves again, pounded drill and flung a hammer in doing his assessment work, for nearly two months. His affidavit of labor per formed shows this feat, and he is supported by several witnesses. His agility on foot, and his remarkable

1 Indians and the settlers in that coun try. It is one of the old roads, 2 part of which was formerly known as the "old Beale trail," which ran through that country in the early his tory, and it is kept up now by the Indians; but on that part adjacent to the town of Flagstaff it is kept up by the county. There is very little travel on that road other than Indian travel few white men occasionally; and the Indian trade that goes out to the west part of the reservation, and for your information I would like to state, Mir. Chairman, that by executive order of January s, 1910, 1,35S,39s acres were taken from Coeonino eoun. ty and annexed to the Navajo reser. vation. That deprives the county in which we live of that many acres of grazing land where we used to have hundreds of thousands of sheep and a great many thousand head of cattle and for which we are not reimbursed in any way. On the other hand, we have been deprived of thousands of acres of national forests, so, naturally, we have been left with little land and taxable property in that county; and it seems now, the department wishing to establish this bridge, that we should be entitled to some considera- tiOn before this House, and I hope the gentleman will not insist upon his point of order.
 The following amendment was adopted:
 For continuing the work of con strueting an irrigation system for the irrigation of the lands of the Pima Indians in the vicinity of Saeaton, in the Gila River Indian reservation, $75,OOO; Provided that the amount hereby appropriated and all moneys heretofore or hereafter appropriated for this project shall be repaid into the treasury of the United States in accordance with section 10 of the Act of March 3, 1905. That the Secretary of the Interior shall transmit to Con- gress on the first Monday of Deeem- i Der, 1910, a statement showing tne original cost, the present estimated cost, and the total amount of all moneys, from whatever source derived, ! expended thereon, of each irrigation project for which specific appropria' ; tion is made in this Act, to and in eluding June 30, 1910, and annually thereafter the Secretary of the Inter iror shall transmit to Congress cost account of all moneys, from whatever source derived, expended on such irri' gation project for the preceding fiscal year.

COURT CONTEST OVER ESTATE
From Wednesdays Dsily)

In the Probate Court, yesterday, when the estate of the late Mary B. Cullumber was up for consideration, the petition of G. W. Shute, praying for letters of administration on the same. was denied MT. Shute is the husband of a niece of the deceased, who passed away in this city last December. at which time Mrs. Gull lumber executed deeds for real estate in favor of her niece's husband. He made application later for adminisrra- ton of the remainder of the property, but this was contested by William Stephens. who is a son of a sister of Mrs. CuHumber, residing in the east.
 Stephens was appointed as the ad- ministrator of the estate yesterday, by Judge Hicks. This action was taken on the ground that Mrs. Ste phens. the mother of William Ste phens, and sister of Mrs. Cullumber, had the right as next of kin and the nearest relative living, of nominating who should be appointed, and which is authorized under the statutes as the proper course to follow.
 A small amount of personal prop, ertv is involved in this action, but a considerable sum is said to be in ex- istenee somewhere in St. Louis, in valuable stocks, amounting to over $l.OOO. The actual value, however will be learned later. Mrs. Stephens who initiated this contest, is residing at Indianapolis, while her three sons Fred. William and Charles, are resi- dents of this county, the former oi Cherry Creek, William of the Verde and Charles, an employe of the s. F. P. 6 P.

LOSES HIS MIND
 AFTER HARD STUDY
fFrom TAursday', pailyl

One of the most pitiable eases ot insanity in late years of this county is that of Oscar Rush, who was com mitted to the asylum yesterday by the board of insanity examiners. His de mentia is due to overwork as a rail way mail clerk, and was superindueed by the long hours on the run from Fl Paso to Tucson, and overstudy in pos tai regulations he endeavored to ae. eomplish on a new route assigned him, that of the run from El Paso to Houston, Tex.
 In order to pass a ereditable exam ination, Rush is said to have prae- tieally spent every minute of his lay over time in studying out the new route. He finally collapsed mentally, the shock taking place a short time ago at Tucson, where he quit the service without a moments warning. He had, however, the presence of mind to place a substitute aboard his car, and left that city for his par ents' home at Plaeeritas, arriving last Saturday morning. Immediately there after symptoms of a demented nature were noticeable by his father and mother, and when he attempted to leave and return to Tucson in the night time, and was prevented in dO- ing so, he became a violent maniac, and considerable trouble was oeeas- toned in stopping him from leaving the place.
 It required the strength of three able bodied men to handle him under these conditions, as he has wonderful physical powers, which had been ire quently commented upon by his as- sociates in the mail service. He also labors under the hallueinatiOn at times that enemies are endeavOring to kill him, and it is at these intervals he attempts to get away.
 The afflicted man is but 9s years of age, and first entered the railway mail service out of this city in the run to Crown King. Later his ability was recognized and he was assigned to Fl Paso, and was further to be rewarded by transfer to another run out of that city.
 He was brought to Prescott, Tues day, by his father, c. Rush, E. Orr and Deputy Sheriff Cook from Kirk land. Last night he was taken to the asylum at Phoenix by Deputy Sheriff Cook. Just before the train pulled out he was seized with an other outbreak, and it required the efforts of two deputies to paeify him in his rage. It is the belief that when he rests and is given proper treatment, he will be restored to his normal mind.

vitality in body, together with his clear intellect, is remarkable for one of his advanced years, and though his head is white with the frost of many years, he expects to clip off a cen tury before the pace is ended on this earth.
 The arrival of this popular old time resident is a pleasant chapter in pio- neer circles to chronicle, for the day when men of his intrepid personality first came to the territory is fast passing into memory, and but few are alive to recall the thrilling scenes that faced them as they blazed the way for others to follow.

NUGENT BAIL IS
 REDUCED TO s2,5O0
CFrom Thursdays DsilyI

From Thursdays Dsily)
 Habeas corpus proceedings were in- stituted yesterday in the District Court of this city, before Judge Dee, in the case of c. F. Nugent of Holbrook, to have the bail he was placed under of $5,OOO, reduced to $2,5OO, in an al legged assault he made upon John Leisner at that place, a few months ago.
 Nugent was represented by H. F. Ashurst of this city, and District At torney Geary of Navajo county re sisted the granting of the reduction. The decision given by Judge Doe was to place Nugent under bail in the sum of s2,5OO, which amount the ae- cused stated he can furnish.
 The trouble between the men grew out of a dispute while both were em- ployed on the main line of the Santa Fe as carpenters. Nugent is said to have seriously wounded Leisner at the time and used an iron gas pipe. with which he inflicted injuries on the head of his victim.
 A short time afterward, owing to the serious condition of Leisner, his bail was naturally placed at heavy sum. but since that he has fully re- covered, and no bad results are said to be in evidence, hence the lowering of the bail to the above figure. Nu- gent, in the custody of Sheriff Woods, District Attorney Geary, and all par ties interested, returned to HolbroOk yesterday.

NELSON GROUP IN
 BRADSHAwS IS SOLD
From Thursdays Daily

From Thursdays Daily
 George P. Harrington, who returned to Prescott, Tuesday, from a business trip to the east, gave out the impOr- tant news yesterday that the closing of the deal in the purchase of the Nelson group of mines, in the Brad shaws, had been effected, and in addi- tion, it was the intention to begin operations immediately. The syndi- cate takirg over these mines is in corporated, and is known as the Nel- son Mining company, being composed of some of the wealthiest residents of Philadelphia, Pa. It is also a close corporation, and heavy payment in cash was made, the total amount in- volved not being made known.
 In few days camp will be built, and the installing of hoisting and other machinery to be considered i'm mediately, the purpose of the new organization being to get to work in exploiting the ground as soon as ae- eommodations for miners can be eff fected.
 In the deal are included a group of three mines, the Dividend, Lone Jack and Jack Pot, all of which in years gone by have been opened at various points extensively, and main ly by tunnels. They are situated less than one mile from the old mill of the Crowned King Mining com pany, in a northeasterly direction, and enjoy an excellent name in min ing circles through the heavy pro duetion given when operated by their former owner, the late John Nelson, son-in-law of MT. Harrington. At that time several shipments were made to the Fl Paso smelters, net ting $40 per ton in gold.
 An immense vein is shown through the development, and it is the cur rent belief that the Assure at that point is nothing more than a continu- ation of the Gladiator-War Eagle system, the character of the ores be- ing identical and having the same geological makeup. This in itself is said to be the motive that prompted the early closing of the deal, and in which the big showing that is made on the belt near by was a strong in- dieation of the merit of the Nelson mines MT. Harrington also stated that the purchasing syndicate woulc proceed to patent their interests i'm mediately, anticipating the value or the combination acquired, and were jubilant at the prospects of getting to work to make their determinations as fast as men and money could ae- complish the task.
 Several members of the company will visit the ground in a short time, and the selection of a superintendent would be considered immediately. This is one of the strongest syndieates that has been formed in recent years in mining work for that section, and in dicates the desirability of the field for practical operations on broad lines.
