Placer Mining on the Frisco.

It is not generally known, but D. E. Lennox and associa tes, four miles below the Frisco pump station, are putting in a 4O-h. p. gasoline engine and pump to ground sluice their placer properties. They have run an 8O-foot tunnel into the gravel, and gold in paying quantities has been taken ont the entire distance. It is expected to have the plant at work some time next month. It is a known fact that gold can be found all about this district, and as there are thous- ands of acres of auriferous gravel it is a wonder that so little scientific work is done. Just as soon as some one makes a success working these rich deposits the whole country will get busy and many men be employed up on which now is only a barren waste.

Biggest Ditch in Lower Valley.

The Smitherell irrigating ditch in the lower valley is nearing com pletion and is one ot the most bene
 fcal enterprises ever undertaken in Graham county by private individuals The ditch, when completed, will be I9 miles long 'and will carry water sufficient 70 irrigate 4,500 acres of land. being l2 feet wide at the bottom. Mr. w. A. Pitt of Clifton is the promoter and a large land owner under the immense proposition which has cost many thousands of dollars. The enterprise was promulgated not quite two years ago, and MT. Pitt has devoted his entire attention in fnancieriug and watching the pro gress of the work. Already the water is turned on ,5O0 acres of land, and ere spring opens the whole tract of 1 300 acres will be supplied with ample water for all purposes, and the desert be made to bloom like d garden. This is a case where pluck, energy and capital combined work to the good of the whole country.

The FratclIi Club.

On Wednesday evening in their handsome and spacious club rooms, the "Fratelli Club" had its inception. The club starts with limited mem- bership and numbers among it's mem- bers some of the most promin ent business and commercial men of the city The object of the club is p-i- mariIy for ciability but it also has the best interests of our fellow citi- zens at heart "Good fellowship" is the password and all knockers are barred. Those desiring mem bership should present themselves with a ''cold one" in one hand and a five dollar William in the other
 The solemnity of the occasion was at one time disturbed by the approach to the outer door of five honorary members without the password. They were brothers Stambrookski, Moore ovitch. late of Mexico, Carrollski, Burkovitch and Schaeffero6ski, who upon being denied admission, reluct- antly but peacefully retired. After several important measures had been passed and other business transacted, the members retired to the banquet hall where the following menu, pre- pared by an expert Italian chef, tickled the palates of their epicurean tastes:

 Potato Salsa

s. s. Campbell, president of the Chase Creek Copper company, is in Clifton this week. MT. Campbell is the promoter and is now building big dam at SAffJrd to supply that city with water, electric lights and power. The large enterprise is not only for Stafford but the entire lower valley where electric power and light is needed. It is also stated that a trolley line will be run from Solomonville, through Stafford on to Thatcher and Pima and possibly to Tt. Thomas.
 At the regular meeting of Evening Star Rebekah Lodge on Wednesday evening a neophite was initiated into the beautiful mysteries of the order. Following the initiation a dainty lunch was served by the ladies. The meeting was notable event from the fact that Mrs. Nettie Ivy, president of the Rebekah assembly of Arizona, was present. At the close of the ceremonies the local lodge presented Mrs Ivy with a beautiful souvenir spoon in token of their esteem. The recipient gracefully accepted the present with a few well chosen words of appreciation in which, among other things she highly complimented the local order for their efficiency in ex- employing the work. The meeting was one Of the pleasantest held by ] the Rebekahs for some time and the coming winter promises to be one of funusua1 activity.

are in sympathy justly calling US for
a fulflment of that policy. They will
not be satisfied with inaction and
makeshift legislation. These words,
coming from "Jimmie", as Mr.. Roose-
welt was wont to call this member of
his regular cabinet and of his tennis
court or kitchen cabinet also, after
close communion as guest of Clifford
to Mr.. Roosevelt, naturally raises the
question as to who are the representa-
tives of the Roosevelt policies. 1t is
useless to deny that Mr.. Taft is or was
Mr.. Roosevelt's chosen successor and
political heir. Nothing like snch
selection has ever before occurred in
American history, and the facts and
the event are so recent that everybody
knows and realizes them. The situa-
ton cannot but be embarrassing to the
ex-President. Politician, statesman
and historian as he is, he cannot but
appreciate the difficulties with which
the President has had to contend and is
contending. No president has ever
been more sincerely anxious to carry
out the policies bequeathed to him by
party platform than President Taft,
and it is not mere fiction to place the
odium of failure, if failure it must be,
on his wicked advisers.

sELF-APPOINTED JUDGES.

Few, if any, of us get our just
deserts in this life. In nearly
every instance it is a case o
over-praise or over-census. Pas
sion, bias prejudice, are usually
too strong to admit of an impair
tial judgment. In forming our
estimates the factors of love and
hate are far more potent than
truth and justice. When there
is question of a friend we often
willfully blind ourselves to his
evil side and see only the good.
Or if we can't close our eyes to
the bad, at least we manage to
put the best possible construc-
ton on his intentions. On the
contrary, if the subject under
discussion be an enemy, or one
for whom we have an aversion,
our methods are just the reverse.
We can see no good in him; or if
the good is too manifest to be deni-
ed with any show of reason, we
proceed to question his motives.
It is the same old gag adopted by
Christ's enemies in the matter
of casting out devils. The facts
were patent to all. But, said the
libelous Pharisees, He has an un-
derstanding with Satan himself.
He is in league with him He
casteth out devils by Beelzebub,
the prince of devils"
So long as we maintain one
standard for f lends and another
for foes, so long as we rest con-
tent with shallow and superb
cial judgments, SO long will men
fail to get the verdict they de-
serve; it will be ever either too
lenient or too harsh. The world
at large, as we'll as it's jails, is
full of the victims of circum-
stantial evidence. 1t is the COM
parative few Gf any who are
properly labeled. We pass by
the rough diamond as Of little or
no account and treasure the
glittering geWgaWs. The world
fouts some of it's greatest heroes
while living and erects noble
monuments to them when their
eyes and ears are closed to the
the sights and sounds of popular
applause. 1t strains to its bosom
and clasps in fond embrace the
sleek and fawning hypocrite, only
to find out all too late that it has
been cherishing a viper. AS the |
late Father Tabb so charmingly
puts it:

LESS EXTRAVAGANZA IN
GOVERNMENT.

Congress is appropriating
public money at the rate of more
than billion dollars year. We
have the most expensive govern
ment on earth, although we
maintain one of the smallest
standing armies and have no
enemy that threatens us. For
several years the Government
has spent from $4,000, 900 to
$4,000, 900 more than it has re
ceived. The tariff of some
articles has been increased, the
corporation tax and other levies
adopted to increase the revenues
Senator Aldrich states the
Government could be run just as
efficiently for $500, 100000 less
than its present cost. President
Taft has been urging economy in
every department. Yet the ap-
preparations made by the House
are still mounting the Senate adds
a few millions more to each bill,
and the riot of spending contin-
ues. Such projects as to pay ST.
100000 to the negroes who lost
money in the "Freedman's Bank"
are still cropping up. Though we
are now spending about $3.50, O00,-
900 a year for pensions, it is urg-
ed that pensions be increased to 81
a day, which would add an
enormous sum to the present
burden, says the Baltimore
Sum-.
The cost of living is very high;
taxes are increasing, times are
not SO prosperous as they were five
years ago; our exports to Europe
are decreasing, the balance of
trade" is on longer greatly in our
favor. It is any wonder there
is a general protest against the
policy of reckless extravaganza
and a demand for new deal'
in Washington? Such men as
James R. Garfield and ex-Gov-
ernor Herrick, of Ohio, are mere
ly voicing a demand that is made
by the great mass of voters of
all parties the country over.

The Maryland Commission Agency of
Baltimore City announces that it has

M. Tilghman Howard of Anne Arundel
county, who has had long experience in
the handling and sale of tobacco. The

bacco, Grain, Poultry, Live Stock, Wool
and other country produce than ever,
and hopes for liberal patronage from
it's former customers and the public

Their monday never knows
What names immortal are.
IT'S night alone that shows
How star surpasseth star.

What names immortal are.
IT'S night alone that shows
How star surpasseth star.
There is no blame attaching to
man for the fallibility of his
judgments. They can't be other
wise than fallible or defective,
since he has not the proper data
to work on. But the very fact
that our human judgments are
so fallible should at least make
us little more modest and diff
dent, and induce us to form our
opinions more slowly and eau
tiously. Some must of necessity
pass judgment on others their
position demands it. And all
that can reasonably be expected
of such is that, in forming their
judgment, they make the best
use Of the materials at hand and
strive to be just and impartial.
But for him who undertakes to
decide without authority or COM
potency there is no valid excuse.
If he be a Christian, his religion
will tell him as much. The
gentle Christ was rather severe
on self-constituted judges:
Judge not that you may not be
judged; for with what measure
you mete shall be melted to you.
Judge not before the time.
There is One that judgeth," etc.
Nor were His apostles a bit more
lenient; who art thou that judg-
est another mans servant? To
his own master he standeth or
falleth. Wherein thou judgest
another thou condemnest thy
self"
Life is hard enough at its best
without trying to make it unen-
durable by picking out micro
scopic flaws in the lives of our
associates. And, unless grave
public or private interests are at
stake, the principles of human
brotherhood demand that we put
the best possible Interpretation
on the conduct and motives of
our fellowmen. True, there are
exceptions. Duty-a regard for
the well-being of society at large
may sometimes compel the
ministers Of justice to incline to
suspicion and severity. But as
a rule, when the arguments for
and against are equally good and
strong, why not apply legal
methods and give the accused
the benefit of the Doubt -Balti-
more Sun.

The Sound Sleep of Good Health

The restorative power Of sound sleep
can not be over estimated and any all
ment that prevents it is menace to
health. J. L. Southers, Eau Claire,
Wis, says:-"For a long time l have
been unable to sleep soundly nights, be-
cause of pains across my back and sore
ness of my kidneys. My appetite was
very poor and my general condition was
much run down. | have been taking
Foley's Kidney Pills but a short time
and now sleep as sound as a rock. |
eat and enjoy my meals, and my gener-
al condition is greatly improved. | can
honestly recommend Foley's Kidney
Pills as know they have cured me.
