This property still lie side, but the tons and tons of ore at the mouth of the shaft show what values are to be had in the further development of the mine

AN EXPLANATION
 OF CHIEF POINT
BY E. s. CLARK. (Ex-Attoraey GeneralO

In my judgment. the so-called
 primary election law of 1909 has no
 application to any election provided
 for in the enabling act Many req
 sons might be given for this con
 elusion, but they would hardly be interesting to the readers of the Journal-Miner. It is sufficient to say that the primary law is squarelv in conflict with the statehood bill in many important particulars. and as an act of Congress of course takes precedence over any Territorial law. this alone would render the primary law applicable. But the statehood bill itself provides that the delegates to the constitutional convention and state officers shall be elected. the re- turns made, and that all voters att such elections shall be qualified asI provided in Title 20. Revised Stat ntes of Arizona. 1901. Considering this provision in the light of the fact that the primary law cannot be fol
 owed without doing violence to other portions of the enabling act. it becomes clear that delegates to the convention as well as states officers, must be nominated, | elected and the returns made as pro- | 'ided by the law of 1901. The leg stature of 1909 seems not to have. lad in mind the possibility of a | convention or the elee- ion of state officers in framing it's primary law, as it has made abso- utely no provisions under which nominations therefor may be made. 'Ongress seems to have observed this
 oversight, and has remedied it so far
 s practicable by providing that all
 roeeedings relating to nominations
 nd elections preliminary to the or
 anizatiOn of the new state shall be
 cid under the old law.

PACIFIC PROVING
 ITS REAL WORTH
(From Tuesdays Daily)

Through the greatest strike that has yet been made by the Pacific Copper
 Mining company, at Silver Mountain,
 the attention of the mining eonhnun-
 ity is favorably engrossed at the pres
 ent time on that enterprise. and the
 creation of one of the biggest propo- sitions in the southern part of the
 county, is practically an assured fact
 This belief is supported by what is
 not only in evidence, in a system of extensive exploitation accomplished in recent months, but what is absolutely proven at a point developed by a few days ago, when the greatest mineral determination vet made was shown in the deeper workings in the face of a drift. At that point five foot body of sulphide ore was cut into, carry
 ing every evidence of being the rich est product in gold. silver and copper yet developed, and showing a cOndi- ton that has hot heretofore been in evidence. much less exploited. This new ore bOdy WAS encountered in drift No. l, that runs from the bottom of the 400 foot shaft to the. south, and from the limited exploitation with depth. the strike necessarily has ere ated lively interest:in what may be expected when-the system of explOita
 ton is accomplished at other points and in similar workings. No assays have been made from the new discOv- cry, but that the mineral contained will run high is the belief of those cOnversant with former yields from this zone, the. grade from the main shaft increasing pereeptibly in the yellow metal. as depth and develop ment progressed. The splendid res suits following the operation of this property are but the beginning of the building uP.of a proposition of the greatest possibilities. From one ez- treme the enterprise goes to another, ahd the last determination would seem to he the entering wedge for the cry of a bonanza mine.

UTILIZATION IN
 THE QUEEN CITY

Prescott celebrated last night ner transition from a Territorial vassal-
 age to the rights and privileges of statehood. A big bonfire in front of the Hotel St. Michael was the first signal of rejoicing that swept over the city, upon receipt of the news that President Taft had signed the statehood bill. Although President Taft affixed his signature to the en- abling act at LAO o'clock. it was not generally known until last even ing.
 The movement for a iubilation or iginated at a meeting of the Fourth of July committee, which had as sembled in Sheriff Smiths office There it was proposed that the event which was being celebrated in all the cities of Arizona should be made the subject of a similar dem onstration in Prescott. Hearty ap- prOval was given to the suggestion. A committee was named to secure the band, money was collected for fireworks, and Ed. Kastner volun- teered to donate the boxes for a big bonfire.
 In fifteen minutes there was some thig doing. That bonfire blazed so that it called out the Fire which unpatriotieally ex- the flames. Then the can of bombs began, and that assisted in bringing the population down town to the business district.
 While it was only an informal it was intensely enthus- iastie, especially as the band played such patriotic airs as Marching Through Georgia "My Country. 'Tis of Thee" and other selections, that stirred the blood in every citizen.
 "Why don't the band play those tunes on Sunday?' asked one lady ,f her escort, who was obviously in- 'eeted with the patriotic spirit of he evening.
 For two hours the band did noble luty, playing in front of every busi- less house, including the Journal Miner, where there was light sufie- ent to enable them to read their music, the organization not at present 'eing supplied with torches. It was
 great publication and had the mat CT been taken in time, the joyous flair should have been rounded out -ith speeches and fireworks.

NONOGENARIAN IS
 FINALLY SUMMONED
(FrOm Tuesdays Daily.)

Sunday night, at o'clock, death
 claimed one of the respected pioneers
 of Arizona, when James H. Miles
 passed away at his home in this city
 His death was due to old age, and
 was superinduced from hemorrhage
 of the kidneys. He was 91 years of
 age, last January, and up to a few
 and frequently was seen on the streets, mingling with his many friends. The
 death of this man is one that will be received with universal feelings of sorrow and regret, from his long resi- denee in Prescott and his genial fel lowship on all occasions. His long life on this earth at this time will prove interesting, from his well known personality as a resident of this city for over thirty-four years, never leaving the county after once he set his foot on its soil.
 He was born in Ireland, on Janu- ary II, 1919, and with three brothers, all under age, arrived in New York City, when but lad of + years. Al ter one year he went to Boston, and reaching his majority, was admitted to citizenship. He was married Tn that city, in 1850, and when his be- loved wife passed away in this city, a few years ago, their union had been blessed with ffty-fve years of welded life. From Boston, a few years later, the deceased went to In diana, when the Western spirit seized him and later he was found plying his vocation as a contracting earpen- ter, at Wichita, Kan. He erected with his own hands, the first building in that city, and up to a short time be- fore his death. while in a reminiscent mood, frequently mentioned this cir .umstanee.
 In 1876 he arrived in Prescott. | when it was but a hamlet, and here lis ability was immediately reeog- lized as a builder. He erected many Iomes, all of which are standing to- lay He followed his vocation up to !

within few years ago, when his age
 would not permit of further duty in
 his line. MT. Miles was also a tax
 erdermist of the highest skill, and at
 intervals would apply himself in that work. In all lines that he pursued he was regarded as one of the most conscientious artisans in the city, and his excellent service was generally ad- mitted when he was the leading arehi- teet of the county.
 The deceased enlisted in the Union army at the breaking out of the Civil War, but through the serious illness of his wife at the tme his services were dispensed with by the command ing officer in his district. Another striking feature in connection with the longevity of his brothers in their life, was the death of the remaining one only last January, when at the age of 94 years he passed away on the identical day on which the de- ceased was born. This sad occur renee also weighed heavily on his mind, and is believed to have been the reason why he began to decline so pereeptibly.
 Mir. Miles leaves two daughters and two sons to mourn his death. They are Mrs. W. R. Stone and Miss Annie Miles, William and Andy Miles, all of the city. During his mar ried life eight sons and eight daugh- tarS vera horn tO the uniOD
 The funeral will take place from the old home that he built over thirty years ago, and services will be held under the ritual of the Episcopal church, Rev. Jenkins officiating.

TAX ROLL WILL

(From Tuesdays Daily)

The tax roll for the year shows I decided increase over that of 1909,
 and an estimate made yesterday of 1 the compilation will give several
 thousands of dollars of an increase.
 This valuation is a strong showing
 for interests in lines of a permanent
 regard in property interests, and in
 view of the slump that occurred in
 the bullion production, is all the
 more to be regarded. Last year in
 the mining community was the sever
 est felt in many years, owing to the
 unsettled conditions in the eastern
 financial market, which carried a de- pressing effect in mine operations in this and other sections of the eoun- ty. An estimate of the assessed wealth of the county for 1910 runs to over S9,7OO,OOO. This ereditable showing is due to the energetic and effective work of the assessors office. and in these duties. MT. Campbell, the head of that department. assisted by his deputies, Messrs, Stephens and Gentry, performed excellent field work securing better results than has ever before been accredited to their office 'i' < I. .tt- T. !. z. -i- T. .i- .- - .. find an outlet for his productions, and the public will receive the bens- fit of that condition, accordingly.
 The first application of the pur- pose of this new body was given In their first consignment of fruit that reached the city yesterday, and which is pleasing contrast to that former y in vogue, so far as price is to be With the season fairly aunehed the same rule will prevail n all lines produced.
 No section in the Southwest has become as famously known as the Verde Valley in its fruit bearing capabilities. It is one of the earliest o come to the market and the luality of its yield ranks at the top.

| The interests of the Pacific peO
 pie have been coming into promin
 enee during the past few months
 and especially so as depth was be-
 ing reached. From one condition in
 the sulphide zone the opening up of new ore bodies has been accom- plished, and independent of the new
 bodies cut into, the merits of the property were established in a pro- nounced manner. This belief has been shared in not only by those identified with it, but by the miner as well.
 The method of handling this prop erty is practical, and through that consideration is the good showing due, attesting to the favorable meth cd of operating the ground.
 Among the prominent stockholders who have recently visited the prop erty are J. G. Armstrong and w. Kewan Callear of Pittsburg. The former has frequently been to the mine, and in the company of c. W. -hAbNhNiiT AHt dIllNtu llOul LutlI interests last night. Each confirm the report in circulation of the dis covery made, and both will increase their holdings. Mr Armstrong, through the knowledge he has secured in past visits, feels enthusiastic over the outcome of the capital employed, and made the statement that when a depth of 200 feet more was ac- cOmplished, the immensity of the would be incalculable.
 The new wagon road to the mine is being rushed with all speed and a stretch of 6,OOO feet has been About two miles remain to connect the camp with the Mime haha Flat road, and when opened the transportation of machinery and supplies will be permitted at much less expense.
