FLAGSTAFF NEWS ITEMS

: John c. Hicks, aged 83 years, died at his home in Flagstaff, Thurs day. June 23, 1910. He leaves a wife and daughter, Miss May. to mourn his loss. Mir. Hicks was a native of Vermont and came to Flagstaff nearly 30 years ago, and has been engaged in the practice of his profession part of the time and his folks have been conducting a rooming house. The last few years however he has travelled in the southern part of the territory for his health.
 The weather has been unusually hot the last few days and it appears to be preparing for an old fashioned rainy season. Let Ter commence!
 Flagstaff is quite up-to-date. Got regular city street sprinkler. It is a dandy, and until the weather man sprinkles the wagon will be on duty.
 There are several of our young cowboys carrying their arms in slings. It seems to be catching to break arms now, but we hope the epidemice will pass.
 We observe more strange faces on our streets than ever in the his tory of the town before. There is a large influx of people from Phoenix and the south. Work on the new mill is progress ing rapidly and it is reported that it will be in running order by the first of September.

Evolutionary Changes

| "It has become more evident, in the last two weeks, that industry is slackening and that a period of economic adjustment is at hand, even if there were no political in references just now. The high cost of living of the last four years, and especially of the last year, has pro- duced economic results that can no longer be ignored industrially. An industrial evolution is under way and is upseIting the calculations of Wall Street, as we believe We have far too many middlemen- small mercha nts and dealers. These are being eliminated with friction and great individual hardship These men. in the past, have invest ed their savings in securities. They are not only ceasing to invest, but they are selling much that they have held"
 This is from a market letter from New York brokerage firm. It serves to emphasize what many others have already said that the middlemen take too much of the profit of production. There must come, in time, a closer business re lation between the producer and the ultimate consumer. The dis parity between the cost of produc- tion and the retail selling price is too wide.

Mark Smith on Statehood

At the Tucson jubilee on state hood, Mark Smith was one of the speakers. His speech was one of congratulation that at last Arizona had come into its own after years of fighting against eastern prejudice and objection. He voiced a note of warning, however which is given in the following paragraph:
 "Let us face an upleasant fact, however. We are not to have state hood during the short session of congress, and unless our constitu- tion meets with immediate approv- al. we will not be fully admitted until 1913. Much as it grieves me, I seem to see the same old hand of eastern opposition. and I am forced to fear that Arizons will not have voice in the affairs of government until after the next presidential election.
 "But let us be deeply glad for that which we have gained by bitter struggle. and let us look forward to the day when Arizona, rising above the horizon in the power of her magnificent resources, shall com mand the admiration of the entire continent"

some very high grade copper ore
as samples of the product of the
mines of the Wallowa County Min
ing and Development company's
property, better known as the
Williams mine, on Lick creek, about
rs miles southeast of this city. The
boys who have been working there
this winter have come out with
glowing reports.
They are working in a very rich
vein that is Is inches thick and a
tunnel 140 feet long is still in rich
ore. A cross cut of 40 feet does
not reach the wall. Over $50 tons
o. this ore have been got out since
February.
The Williams mine is only 10
miles northwest of the big smelter
at Homestead. The ledge lies
straight toward the ledges of the
Iron Dyke mines, SO the stockhold-
ers of this company are feeling
not only hopeful but jubilant.

Springfimei Springfire Is
topetimei And the breath Of
spring and the spirit of love
were never more beautifully
translated into words than in
this idyllic story, the combined
work of three men of literary
genius Booth Harrington, Harry
Leon Wilson and Porter Emer-
son Browne. The play, by the
first fwo named authors, capti-
pated hundreds of audiences.
The story, by Mr.. Browne, can
not fail to capfipafe an entire
nation. Madeleine de Talette---
heroine more beautiful, more
innocent, more dipinely inspired
with the innate purity of q young
girls love, has never been por-
frayed in fiction. And in Gil
bert Steele, the sfaiwart young
American soldier in Andrew
Jackson's army, Is found a hero
who lives up to the traditions
upon which this patriotic nation
was founded. Read of M. de
Vaieffe, the stern French arisfo-
Graf; of his dissolufe cousin,
to whom he would we'd Made
lefne; of Father O,Mara; of
L'Acadienne, the wandering
dancer, who had heart; of
VOLTS sturdy American sharp
shooters; of old time French
customs in Louisiana, where the
Code Napoleon yet prevails to
administer justice on American
soil; of war and peace, of brap-
cry and cowardice, of love and
hate, of life and death, and you
will read a romance that creates
new standard in confenipora-
neous American fiction.
