NEW MEXICO MAN IS
 VISITING PRESCOTT
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

Hon. A. L. Morrison of Santa Fe, New Mexico, arrived in Prescott Monday evening, to attend the fun eral services for Mrs. R. E. Nor rison, his daughter-in-law. While his mission is a sad one, it is a pleas ure, nevertheless, for the many friends of this able and prominent citizen, to welcome him to the city again. He is being greeted by all, and will remain for several days as the guest of his son.
 He is remembered as an orator of eloquenee and force, and many years ago he participated in the an- nual observance of St. Patrick's day, when he delivered one of the most convincing and beautiful addresses on the cause of the day that has ever been listened to in this city.
 In New Mexieo's political life he has always been noted for his stauneh advocacy of the republican party, and in many national cam paigns his fealty and devotion to that cause has made him a name that is cherished by all who recall the stirring days in the early his tory of that party. He has been recognized in many official chan nels, and has always performed dili- gent and eommendable service in any capacity he was placed.
 While he is nearing the oetogen- arian stage in life, he is still wig orous, physically and mentally, and he holds his own with all the fire and ardor of other days.

COUNTY SEATS TO BE WIS
 TIED BY CENSUS CHIEF
0Hrom Wednesdays Daily,


 In order to secure an accurate count of the people of Arizona in the thir- teenth deeennial United States cen sus, Franklin F. Towle of Globe, supervisor for the district embracing this territory, will visit each county seat and lay out the ground for his enumerators after a conference with some person or persons in author ity.
 News has been received from Globe that Supervisor Towle has just been granted permission to visit the county seats by Census Director Dur and. It means more businesslike enumeration, which is certain to be as correct as is humanly possible, in marked contrast to former census takings.
 It has been the custom for the SUD- ervisors of each district to sit in his office and plan his campaigns without accurate knowledge of the country. He would mark his dis triets off into subdistricts, one for each enumerator. In this marking off he frequently had the assistance and advice of persons knowing no more than himself, with the result that serious mistakes were not un- common. One enumerator was given almost nothing to do, although his district might be larger than that of his neighbor, who could not pos sibly finish the work in the time at his disposal. The census supervisors could not possibly know how the was distributed in all parts of their districts.
 Mir. Towle will shortly begin his tour of the territory. It is expected that Prescott will be among the first county seats he visits.
 A plan for the more accurate enumeration of live stock is also un- der consideration by MT. Towle Plans formerly in use have always | proved unsatisfactory The county tax rolls cannot be relied upon, as stoekmen, as a rule, do not pay up- on nearly all their stock The best plan that has been yet devised is to estimate that for each head of cattle a grower butchers or sells dur ing the year he must have five head on his range. It is understood that MT. TOwle hopes to get nearer to the truth than he could by merely esti- mating in this fashion.
 The thirteenth census is to be con 1ucted along business lines, not only in Arizona, but throughout the eoun- try. One of the plans devised by Director of the Census Durand to secure accurate enumeration is to have a census enumeratOrs' eonven- -ion. This convention will be held in St. Louis. The supervisors will meet there for several days to ex- change ideas and plans.

NARROWED AT SIMMONS.

MT. and Mrs. B. H. Taeger, the former one of the biggest sheep own CTS in the county, are still tied up at Simmons, at which point they ar rived over two weeks ago, en route to their home in Camp Wood. To reach their ranch at the above place it is necessary to cross a high range of mountains, and the snow still lies so deep they will not undertake the journey for several days to come.

RAY AND INSPIRATION.
Both Properties Making Good Prog
ress in Ore Bodies.

Work on both the Ray Consolidated
and Inspiration properties In Arizona
has been advancing rapidly within the
past few weeks II is declared. Henry
Krumb, consulting engineer for the
properties, declares that although he
has not visited them in over a month,
the reports that he has received show
that much work Is being done.
At the Joe Bush shaft on the In
spiration work Is still being pushed on
the 400 foot level The east and west
drifts have developed the ore body for
400 feet from face to face. The east
drift has gone underneath the ore.
but the drills have developed it above.
The south drift has struck the contact
and the north drift Is being pushed
ahead through orc. At tho Scorpion
shaft drifting Is being carried on on
the O-foot level with some satisfac-
tory results.
The drills are now giving better re-
suits than formerly although they
do not work with the satisfaction OF
the operations In other parts OF the
district. The drills have already de-
monstrated TINT the ore body extends
for 5000 feet through the company's
estate.
The same rapid developments are
soing on at the Ray Consolidated. All
the steel hns been laid for the rail
road, tho grading having been com
pleted. The grading for the founda-
tion of the mill has been completed
and probably rs per cent OF tho cement
work has been put in.

COLD WEATHER AND
SNOW CAUSE DELAYS
Mines. .Smcltcrs and Samplers Through
out the State Suffer Damages
From Conditions.

The unprecedented cold weather of
the past few weeks has caused q great
amount OF damage at the mines, sam.
piers and smelters in the state. and II
will still be several weeks before all
arc In first class running condition
again. The heavy SHOWS have also been
the cause of much delay in shipments
At some of the mines II has taken as
long as q month to load a shipment of
ore, send Ii to the smclters and receive
returns on 1t.
At Park City the snow Is very deep
and the shippers there have had hard
trouble in keeping the roads and tram
ways open. The Silver King will sooh
have its new tramway running in good
shape Thus far the Columbus Consoli-
dated has been able to keep the road
from Sandy to Alta open, but IL the
SHOWS continue this will not last much
longer
At TintIc the weather has shut Off
dividends from that district this month.
The Uncle Sam and May Day have
been making light shipments as have
the Colorado and Iron Blossom, Dragon
Iron has kept UP good record. but this
Is being cut down. Yankee Consolidated
has practically ceased shipping ore on
account of the heavy snow. Tho ex-
tremc cold a week ago caused the oil
that had escaped into the compressor
pipes to cut off the passage of air. II
was necessary to build fire along the
pipes and thaw them out
In Bingham trouble has been had.
The Bingham Mines company has had
untold trouble in getting It's ore loaded.
At nearly every mino in the camp there
has been delays and annoyance.
The Ohio Copper company has had
a great deal of trouble In starting its
second unit OF the concentration Ice
has accumulated on the belts, the
tables would start freezing and It has
been q continual study to keep things
moving. The Boston Consolidated and
Utah Copper mills have also suffered
The samplers and smelters have been
having the hardest time, In many cases
1t has been necessary to blast tho
ore out of the cars. Both have been
compelled to employ an extra force to
care for the work. Tho wet ores from
picks and shoyels make but little i'm
preston
Tho smelters have also been short
of ore and there Is much scurrying
among tho ore buyers TO get sufficient
supply to keep the furnaces going
At Mercur the mills were stopped
for several days last week. The cyanId-
ing processes kept things tied up until
they were thawed out.
The milder weather that has set in
today is looked upon with great well
come by the mining people

MINING, BUSINESS AND STOCKS.
MAY PUT PIOCHE ON
MAIN RAILROAD LINE
Much Speculation as to What Salt Lake
Route VIII Do for Mining Camp
In Southern Nevada.

Since the washout that has practi-
calIy closed up the Salt Lake Route,
much speculation is rife IN to what It
will mean for Phoebe. This camp will
shortly be In position to send at
least 1.5O0 tons of ore day to the
market Enough ore Is now blocked
out there for this and work Is progress
Sing In q manner that promises even
q greater tonnage. The Consolidated
Phoebe Mines company Is preparing Tor
big shipments, the Day mine can SEND
out a large tonnage as can the Prince
Consolidated. Any one OF. these three
could produce better than SOC tons of
ore O day.
Engineers who are familiar with the
Typography of Clark and Lincoln coun-
ties declare that there Is no doubt but
what the railroad will change Its
course and that although a higher
grade will be secured IL will be one
that can be maintained at q smaller
expense. II is declared that new
route could be built for what 1t will
cost to rebuild the Meadow Valley
wnshout.
One OF the ways that has boen point
cd out would be for tho road TO use the
present line as far as Uvada, so
through the pass at Sheep Springs
and strike the branch road running
the road would continue on northwest
and out through Bristol pass and then
down the valley to the south. reaching
the old line just above Las Vegas.
This road would probably be about 80
miles longer than the present road and
Phoebe would be on the main line OF
railroad. This would cut out Calentes
Moapa and many other places,
Another route which seems moro
probable is that the road Will branch
off at Uvada, go out through Sheep
Springs pass. go along below Panaca
and up through Bennett pass, This
route has been found feasible. From
Bennett pass the road would go into
the valley west OF Delamar and in the
wide level valley run directly to
Stewart, a few miles out from Las
Vegas.
This route would run close to the
Prince Consolidated mine and afford
an easy outlet to the mines along the
great mineral belt to the southwest of
Pioche.
