Mrs. FiSko,

It is doubtful If any, dramatic an
nouncement has been received with
greater interest or with more general
enthusiasm than that Of the coming
engagement of Mrs. Fiske, which is
scheduled for the Lyceum next month
The play to be given Is Mrs. Bump

engagement of distinct prosperity: It
unhearlded attractions, Of which very
little Is expected by the knowing ones
which springs into instant favor. The
name of the author. Harry James
Smith, meant nothing at all and ire
only curiosity was that which was
melted by the name and by the fact
that Mrs. Fiske was offering a new
play, an event which Is always signi-
ficant AS the play unfolded, it was
found to posses dialogue that was
freshly and pliantly humorous, and a
character for Mrs. Fiske which
seemed almost a classic In its draw
ing by the author. and in its EXPOSE
ton by Mrs. Ftske. It is story of
social snobbery and of a fight for
social recognition on the part Of an
ambitious young woman who had
been born in Indiana, the daughter of
THE sufferers FRIEND" which was

unique and usual role for Mrs. Fiske

 The secret of success in indus trial enterprises is loyalty of those engaged in them and no man ever directed an industry in Arizona who held a higher esteem of those under his direction, from the lowest paid to the highest
 Since leaving Clifton MT colqu- houn has further equipped himself with knowledge in the science of min ing and reduction of copper. He has visited nearly every great copper district in the world and studied the formations and the methods of re- duction; two years ago he was in Douglas, Cananea, Bisbee and Naco- zari for a month on this business.
 In Clifton it was customary years ago when Mir. Colquhoun would re- turn after his annual visit to the home office of the company in Scot land to prepare a banquet to which were invited all the heads of the de partments, foremen. bosses. etc, to- gther with prominent citizens of Cliff ton and Morenci. On these occa- sions there was manifest the strong organization in charge of the Ari. zOna Copper company. Should Mir. Colquhoun return to Clifton back in his old position as president of the Arizona Copper company there will be joy in the hearts of the old tim CTS and such a banquet as never before spread in Clifton. The writer hereof was always invited to the old time Colquhoun banquets and should there be another he hopes to be present whether invited or not.

 If a bookkeeper should not be disposed to find surplus. what would happen2" asked Mir. Lane. Mir. Rob bins gave no explicit answer. He proceeded with a plea that the com mission look at the practical side and leave the sweeping improvement to theorists, at least until they had been put on tangible basis.
 We have attempted, through two years of hard labor" he said, ito make a scale of freight rates that win help the line to continue on the Improvements started and also to pay a fair dividend. It is generally conceded that the interests of a rail road and those of the community through which it operates are the same. + a railroad makes prices that are too high 1t will hurt itself by running enterprises from which it must get it's revenue. It would be folly to kill the goose that lays the golden egg.
 Tt is possibly true that there are few cases where rates are too high, but we all know that there are many cases where they are too low. and these we are trying to bring up to the proper standard"
 You say you know of specific cases of rates that are too low, l" said Commissioner Meyer. Please state few of these cases"
 T do not know Of any specific case in winch the rate is too low, Q said Mir. Robbins. while another rip pie of laughter ran through the chamber But we all know from ex- perienee that there are such cases. %
 Mir. Robbins again startled the Commission by stating that his line made no money out of freight at iall, but ran the business on a losing basis, looking to the passenger ser vict to offset the loss.
 George Brownwell.J representing the Erie, said that line had been suffer ing from lack Of revenue for years and. if the Commission did not grant the proposed increase there would be no chance to pay dividends on the stock in years to come.
 We have done all we can to i'm prove the service add have built up the country in which we operate and it is surely only just that we should be able to pay our stockhold- CTS something on their investment. 9 he said

GREAT PROPERTY VALUES.


 According to the assessment re turns of New York City the total taxable wealth of the metropolis has reached the enormous sum of ss.- e41,241, ,357, an increase over the pre- ceding assessment of Ss97. .04s. .0OO. This big increase in assessments is said to be due to the energetic way in which Mayor Gaynor has insisted upon a proper equalization of prop erty values for taxation. Heretofore there has been much inequality, with the result that the metropolis has lost some Of its proper allmony.
 Big as is the income of New York City from the enormous volume of taxable values available. the i'm mense needs of the great city absorb its alimony pretty thoroughly, mak. ing it necessary constantly 10 sup plenent the revenues by fresh Dor. rowing on bond issues. This years great gain in taxable values will per nit of an increase of so,0oO, 900 in the amount that the city can legal. ly Jc -ow in the way of the sale of -aa'' nal bonds. This ability to borrow will help to finance the new subway proposals, which have been for some time debated with much energy and heat.
 The enormous accumulated wealth represented hy the taxable values of New York city place that municipal. ity in the front rank of the richest cities in the world If 1t is not act ualiy the richest of the great cities, 1t certainly has few rivals. and. of course. none in this hemisphere.

We knew these re srictions were around our statehood bill when it was passed, stlll there was much rejoicing. but at this late unknown, rather than accept state day we are advised to cling to the Oregon brand, which is untried and hood. Senator Bourne no doubt likes to see his particular brand endorsed on every occasion but the
 price he insists Arizona should pay as its endorsement. is asking too
 much.

The local stockholders of the Ari- zone Copper company residing in Cliff ton have sent a memorial to the board of directors of that company at Edinburgh, Scotland. asking that James Colquhoun, formerly president of the company, be again chosen as head of the directorate, to succeed Hon. John Gill. of Edinburgh, now deceased.
 1t is not surprising that the local shareholders who watched the match. less success of MT. Colquhoun during the entire time that Mir. Colquhoun was in Clifton should desire to again see his master mind and hand again at the helm. He arrived at Clifton when a young man. taking a pos.- ton as assayer.

PEARY AND THE POLE.

Mir. Peary. the civil engineer, at tached to the navy, who claims to have actually visited and discovered the North Pole of our earth, is to be made an admiral and officially de- clared to be the only pole discoverer in the whole world.
 After the extraordinary amount of lying about polar exploration, the matter ought to be settled now with out regard to any facts whatever.
 It is the misfortune of comman- der or Admiral Peary that he has 10 means of proving the fact of his discovery. All depends on his un- sustained word. The North Pole is reached when careful astronomical observations show that the point from which the reckoning is taken is in 90 degrees of latitude north of the equator and the longitude is zero. or nothing.
 Doubtless MT. Peary had instru. ments with him, and it is taken for granted that in spite of the extreme cold which prevailed there he made the necessary observation. But he had no intelligent or capable witness es who could confirm his statement. He specially excluded his white com panions from the last part of his journey, taking only two Eshmos and one negro. not one of whom was able to make the observation or to read the instrument. He could have had such witnesses, but he tes- tined before a congressional commit tee that he purposely excluded them from the closing days marches so that he would be the only white man who visited the pole.
 Having deprived himself of all means of proving his exploit, it will always be regarded with suspicion and never can be established as a fact. Peary reports that at the loca- tion of the pole all was ice there being no land, no rock, nor other per manent object upon which he could have left a mark or sign or in which he could deposit a flag or other means of identification.
 Ills claims to have accomplished "a great exploit rest solely un his unsupported word and no mora.

THE PRICE IS TOO GREAT.
Clifton Copper Era.)

Senator Bourne, of Washington, has upon solicitation written red hot endorsement of the Oregon plan of the initiative. referendum and re call SIS embodied in Arizona's consti- tuition. The Washington senator is the father of these direct legislative issues. 1t was natural for him to rush to the defense of his own pOli- ticai ideas which he is nuturing with such tender solicitude in his native state. Senator Bourne is of the opinion that the Oregon brand of the recall of the judiciary is just what the country needs. Opposed to the senator from Oregon, however, we have the opinion of Henry Jones Ford, of Princeton university who is at present in Portland. Prof. Ford is professor of political economy at this
 great university. He is regarded in the United States as an authority on
 these subjects and is at present in Oregon to make a study of these advanced ideas which the Oregon senator s0 enthusiastically endorses. In an interview already published the Princeton authority is dubious about the beneficial results to be ac- comsliShed under the Oregon idea and objects to it on the ground of the big expense and cumbersome op- erations. But the discussion of the merits of the initiative, referendum and recall as they at present exist in Oregon, is time wasted at present. Governor Sloan just returned from Washington makes the positive state ment that the Oregon brand of dir. ect legislation and recall of the judi. csary will not receive the stamp of approval by the president or con. gress. This is a positive declaration and we believe Governor Sloan has correctly represented the situation
 That being the case, the beauties oi the initiative, referendum and the recall of judges from the bench, as seen by the senator from Oregon
 are of small moment The advic. of Senator Bourne to the people oi Arizona is to stick to the Oregon brand of the initiative. referendum and recall even if we know theil incorporation in our constitution means the end of our aspirations fol statehood. The several states of thi, union, some of them for more thar two hundred years, have conducted their affairs of government in a yer, able manner before the initiative. re ferendum and recall were even heard of. Only three or four states hay, any form of initiative and referen dunn and none of them have adopted the Oregon radical plan but we arr advised now by the Oregon senatol on the eve of statehood to stay witl his ideas of government and go dowr 10 defeat, rather than attempt tC carry on a state government without them. Congress. by the passage O. our enabling act, made it incumbent upon congress and the president tC approve our constitution before we could be admitted This was the best statehood bill the people of Arizons

 It is pitiful to note the amount of ink and argument wasted in newspapers both in and out of Arizona. based upon the idea that congress has something to do with
 the constitution before Taft can consider it. It ought to be need less to repeat that the document goes to the president first. and that if he rejects it, congress will never see it. Yet. how many voters in Arizona will go to the polls cheer fully oblivious of this important fact .

Drowned In Pennesseewassee.
MERLE WATSON OF NORWAY LOST HIS
LIFE WHILE FISHING.

Leon Merle Watson of Norway, II
years of age, was drowned while fishing
from a boat in Lake Pennesseewasset
early Saturday morning. No one wal
with him at the time. The body wa!
recovered about noon of the same day
He was the son of Mrs. a. B. Young
by former marriage, and lived with Mr.
and Mrs. Young. Friday night he and
Donald Bartlett and Clarence Durham
spent the night at Mr.. Youug's cottage
on the shore of the lake. Early In the
morning Merle, as be was commonly
called, got up and told the other boys
that he was going out fishing.
1t was some time before the other boys
got up, and when they did they saw the
boat (which is of the scow or punt pat.
tern) adrift off the shore. Merle's coat
was lying on the shore, and they thought
perhaps he had come In and gone of
somewhere, leaving his boat without
fastening, 80 1t had drifted away.
As he did not appear, and they were
unable to get any trace OF him, they
went to the village for help, and about
noon searchers found his body in about
ten feet of water.
The boy had had within few months
two or three fainting or sinking spells,
due the physicians say to his rapid
growth, and it is supposed that in such
an attack he fell over the side of the
boat. One of the oars had drifted in
toward the shore, and the other wss
found floating some distance down the
lake.
He was 10 years of age, and a member
of the Junior class In Norway High
School. A general favorite, and hit
death In this manner is great shock.
Fhe funeral is at the Norway Congre
gational church at 8 O'Clock Monday
afternoon.
