Prescott. Ariz., May 2e.--Rich Hill famed in gold lore of this country, is as resourceful in it's production of yellow nuggets as in former years. and the recent discovery of a solid chunk of gold that reached the great value of S35O. is announced by Dr. o. L. Geer. who is in the city.
 This product was taken from Weaver Gulch, on the east of the mountain, and at d point near Date Creek. In addition to this dis covery, other finds. ranging from sio to $40 have been made in the past few weeks, aggregating in the neigh borhood of $500. The finding of the big nugget of a few days ago reaches the greatest weight that ras ever been washed out of that field. and has created a revival of the old time interest The name of the discoverer in withheld for personal reasons.

We hope Mayor Edmunsson admin istration will be free from the petty barkings of the small fry politicians. The administration of municipal af- fairs in Bisbee is x difficult matter at the best. The first act of the new city council should be to order an audit of the books of the city for the past four years. The citizens oi Bisbee. who pay their money into the city treasury, are entitled to know how it was spent and that every dol lar is accounted for. There has been so much talk about "pilfering' of the city treasury, during the late cam paign, that it would seem that this move on the part of the incoming city council was imperative.

committee was appointed to interview some of the leading attorneys of the city to take charge of the cases which it was believed would necessarily have to be bought before the right of way was secured. More than one at torney in Bisbee said the cost to the city would be three thousand dollars Then the committee decided to i'm crease the salary of the office of the city attorney to s20e.O0 per month and put all of the right of way cases in his hands. It was argued that a city attorneys salary for year would only be twenty four hundred dollars. For this salary. and for the purpose above recited, City Attorney Sutter was induced to accept the office. The important duties of the city attorney have ended Regardless of the result of the election last Monday the re- duction in the salary of city attorney would have occurred with the in coming administration.

The sudden and unexpected death of Dr. William F. Blake came as a great shock to his numerous friends in Tucson, says the Star. Although far beyond the allotted three score and ten. the fires of usefulness had not burned low and the years in his immediate future seemed well as sured. But death Is no respector of things that be. It sunders all the ties Of life; it ends all the schemes and dreams of men. It comes to all The blow stands in the furrow. and the book on the desk is closed for ever. It touches the eyes and they become sightless; it puts it's fingers on the lips and they are silent. Worth and usefulness have no stand ing. and honor and glory fade under it's blighting breath. But we live our allotted span in the hope of a future on the higher plains of life of a wider scope of vision, of grander pos. abilities of the soul They say he is not dead: that his work is no longer to struggle amid the conflicting shad ows of this world, but to sweep from world to world in the fulfllment oi his m'ssion in the other great uni verse of God. His life, on earth was one of usefulness. and his death com ing as it did in the fullness of years is to be accepted that his all had been done.

NEW MEXICO PRESS ON STATEHOOD.

Over in New Mexico the news papers are discussing statehood possibilities and exhaasting their every resource in an effort to ob- tain definite information. Last week the Moriarty Messenger contained the following:
 The statehood bill has got shunted off on a siding, and it looks very much as though the powers that be intended to let it stay shunted out of the way. Was not this little statehood bill supposed to be an administration measure. and were we not informed that it had the right of way over all other legislation? Is it possible that the favorite measures of the party in power can be pigeonholed fiji this way? It certainly looks like it. and the attitude of the Republican congress towards the statehood measure will likely cause a reaction with so much energy that the territories will go strongly to- ward Democracy"

Commenting on the above the Al buquerque Citizen says:
 Wont some Republican paper that understands the workings of the inner circle please explain for the benefit of the Messenger and other territorial papers just what really is the matter? The New Mexican says the Democrats didn't go to Washing ton and help to boost and hence no statehood. The Tucson Citizen says the Democrats over there want to go and boost for statehood and that is why We are not getting it. We know the Republican platform promises it, but we want to know if it was a policy promise We know that Mir. Taft said on the occasion Of his visit here that he favored statehood provided we would see things the way he sees them. but we want to know what he meant We know the Republicans say they favor it. but they also say the Democrats oppose it, and we want to know how a handful Of Democrats can possibly keep us from having state hood We know Mir Andrews promis- ed statehood at the next session, but we want to know if he always speaks in the future tense. We know that the Democrats always have and
 do now favor statehood, and want to
 know if it isn't time they had a
 chance to put that spirit into action
 Is it any wonder that telegraphic
 news favorable to statehood brings
 no enthusiastic responses from New Mexicans? A half century of hoping , and waiting. only to be deceived
 again and again, has made their |, hearts callous and dulled their {, emotions. The injustice of the f attitude of the Republicans on this
 question is the most demoralizing that the- have taken during the present i. congress. There is no doubt as tc E the action they should take. They [ know what should be done and thel deliberately turn their backs on plain course of duty. Could aught b' - worse than this2"

The latest adviees from Washington. sent out by the Associated Press, state that the senate probably will begin consideration of the statehood bill on Monday, immediately after the pass age of the railroad bill. The quickest way to dispose of the question is for the senate to adopt the Hamilton bill as a substitute for it's own bill, put it on it's final passage. and send it over to the White House for the signature of President Taft. The passage Of the senate bill means sending the measure to conference and as the ho. days are coming on our hopes may be left to die in some committee room whence the conferees have fled.

ELECTRIC POWER.

Electric power is fast displacing steam and gas in the industries of The country and the announcement that the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining Company has contracted to supply power from it's electric plant at the big Douglas shelter for the n Tigre mill and mines fifty miles away will naturally attract wide attention in this section. This prop osition will lead to a close investiga- ton of the feasibility of supplying power for pumping water for irrigat- ion through the now desert valleys of Arizona from monster electric plants located at convenient and de slrable points.
 Many settlers in the Sulphur Springs valley. all the way from N-nlcox to Douglas, have undertaken to raise water by means of gasoline machines. That this water could be pumped by electric power for greatly reduced cost there can be no doubt. though data is not at hand for estimating just what it would cost
 With pumps run by electricity the windmill need not be displaced. So long as that means would supply the needs of the rancher well and good. but when the wind failed then the pressing of an electric button would keep constant the needed supply of water.
 The fertile soil of the Sulphur Springs Valley will bear the min imum expense for a supply of water for irrigation. In the Salt River valley the permanent water supply has cost heavily. but it has added vastly more to every acre of land
 A permanent water supply for the irrigation of the Sulphur Springs Val ley would result in doubling the pres  ent wealth of Cochise county.
 Whether there is sufficient under ground water to reclaim all the vast area of fertile land remains to be seen. but certainly that matter will justify thorough testing.
 A main electric line through thc sulphur Springs Valley would no only accommodate the settlers in tn valley with cheap power but it would eive cheaper power to the minins enterprises at Courdand, Pearce Gleason. Dos Cabesas and other trib utsry mining districts

One other boy who has long since
grown into a tall, sturdy Californian
told tales in former years of an en-
counter which in his schoolboy days
he had in Scotland with the then
youthful prince. In this case, too. 1t
seems royalty was the aggressor. The
Californian, James Miller, was living
at the time in Scotland. AS James
was enjoying a donkey ride one morn
ing near the Firth of Forth the prince
passed by and-just for fun-pulled
him out of his saddle. Next moment
his royal highness found himself Civ
ing and taking blows with a plebeian
rather bigger than himself, who did
not spare him punishment. In after
life the prince often referred pleasant
ly to the "little mixup." He never re-
scented the drubbing he got, and once
on learning that his former adversary
was in money difficulties went gener-
ously to his assistance.
