Census enumerators all over the

Then he will rush down here, un-

1t went off exactly as planned.
Westerleigh came home at the

stairs. The guests held their breath
while Mrs. Westerleigh called out
excitedly, "Oh Frank. come down
quick. The gas is escaping in the
parlor."
Every light had been turned out,
and the parlor was in perfect dark
ness. There was a rapid rush of
feet down the stairway, then a
voice said, Il don't smell any
gas"
Better light the jet," Mrs.
Westerleigh suggested, tremulously.
There was sputter, and sudden

WHEN THEY WAKE UP

When the editor of the Copper
Era has lived as long in Clifton as
some other people we know, he will
change his opinions about corpora
tions.
There was nothing that could be
termed 'sorehead" in the article he
quoted from THE GUARDIAN in his
last weeks issue, and we realize
that the truth, judging from his
answer, struck home.
For the information of the editor
of the Copper Era, we might state
that when the question of county
division was up before the last legis-
lature, the head officials of the
three big mining companies in the
east end of Graham county were in
active attendance at the capital in
Phoenix; also the twenty-three emf
issaries of the big three" were
there also, reporting promptly each
day and very enthusiastic among
themselves for county division. They
got their division" going and COM
ing, and obeyed orders the same as
other paid agents who have helped
corporate interests to secure con-
troll. And when all was over. they
got their transportation back to
their little burgs. The mining COM
panies accomplished what they went
after.
While it is true that large sum
of money is raised in the east end
of Graham county by just taxation
and according to law, it is equally
true that more money is spent in
the east end than in any other part
of the county.
The money raised by taxation in
Clifton, Morenci and Metcalf finds
it's way back home, and if by chance
any of it escapes to another part of
the county, it is so small that it is
hardly noticeable.
If the editor of the Copper Era
doubts this statement, he can very
easily learn the truth by examining
the county's books.
The mining corporations of the
east end of Graham county were
more interested in county division
than any one else and have been
working for years to accomplish it.
They have succeeded at last and
Greenlee county will be company
county, in which event no one but
a fool would believe that they will
not take full advantage of the bal
ance of power which will be theirs,
in spite of anything that will be
done by the citizens of Greenlee
county, including the editor of the
Copper Era, when they wake up.

New Natural History

Some delicious "howlers" are the
outcome of the essay competition
youngsters promoted in connection
with the Royal Show opening yester-
day at Liverpool.
We quote the following:
There are two kinds of pigs, the
porkit and the guinea pig. The
porkit is a pig which grows to a
certain height and age and the
guinea pig is very small and very
dear to buy. A pig, when dead, is
very good food. ....
One may see huge sides of beef in
in the butchers shop that once were
the property of cows.
Give dog a bad name and hang
him" is never applied to any animal
so full as it is to the goat.
When six months old the cock be-
comes its own master and his power
remains until he reaches the age of
three years. Then if any other
gentleman younger than he comes
along he will find his wives deserting
him to go to the other and all he
can do is to look on quietly and
submit to have a rival.
The horse is mans best and most
obedient friend. 1t is as tall as
middle-aged man.
The pig is native of China, and
it can come into the house and sit
down like Christian
The pig is a very neglected animal
even by those who write essays.
am going to be it's friend and take
it as my subject. The pig has been
the goose that lays the golden egg
to many people. Many Americans
would not be millionaires without
the falsely blamed pig.
The best horses are funeral horses
and carriage horses; next come the
marriage horses.
The horse consists of fetlock,
joints, eovernett, flank, upper arm,
stife, jawbone, knee cap, chest,
lower arm and hook. Without these
the graceful animal would not live.
A person may partly live on pig.

Greene Cattle Company has skinned
in the neighborhood of some seven
hundred head of range stock which
have perished on the open range
for the want of feed and water.
1t is expected that if the present
drought keeps up that the number
will greatly increase, and cause
considerable loss to the cattle
owners. 1t is estimated that over
two thousand head of stock have
died on the open range during the
past four months.

Thin Skin

A priest went to barber shop
conducted by one of his Irish
parishioners to get a shave. He
observed that the barber was suffer-
ing from a recent celebration, but
decided to take chance. In a few
minutes the barber's razor had
nicked the Fathers neck.
There, Pat. you cut me-" said
the priest, as he raised his hand
and caressed the wound.
"Yis, y'r riv'rance," answered
the barber.
That shows YOU" continued the
priest, in tone of censure, what
the use of liquor will do"

the barber humbly," it makes the

ARIZONA

The following lines were written
by Aloysius Coll, of Douglas, Ari
zona, on the occasion of Delegate
Ralph Cameron's visit to that city
for a statehood celebration:
By good intent made steady,
By right of men made strong,
The star of Arizona
The promise of a song,
A wish, a hope, phantom
Of victory in the fight ....
Hath broken from the shadows
And risen in the night!
Dim as the lure of Pizarro,
Old as the glory of Spain,
Old as the god of the Incas,
Young as the youth of the rain,
Rose of the golden desert,
She dropt her tardy seed,
And lo!--the leaves of summer,
And the blossom of her deed!
She sleeps in a grove of oranges,
She wakes on breath of flowers;
And her face is a glimpse of morn
ing
In the wake of the silver showers
She comes and her brow is heaven,
With royal right as old
AS the shadows of her coming
On storied paths of gold.
BY monuments eternal
Of crag and sandy dune,
She guards her fallen heroes
With sun and cloud and moon
The heart that bled for daring,
The hand that swept away
The wilderness of danger
For the glory of today.
With eyes of clearing sunshine
She looked into the years;
With hands of faith enduring
She wiped away the tears;
Her birth of blood forgotten,
A captive of the wild,
She comes to coronation.
A princess child!
With lips of golden music
She pleaded at the throne;
The hands that lift the scepter
And crown her are her own;
That patriarchs that hail her
And bow the knee tonight
We are the humble pages
That led her to the light!
