cribed by the brilliant correspond ent at Douglas, nor is Xenophon's historic retreat from Canaxa to Chrysopolis-1500 miles, with ten thousand men.
 Again this correspondent asserts in the quotation above that opera ton of the Nacozari mines lis hampered already by assertions of workingmen who are leaving in large numbers and invariably take with them the mules and burros used to carry the mine products to the railroad"
 Is it possible that this cores pondent at Douglas does not know that the mines at which he makes mention are at Pilares, seven miles away from Nacozari, and that the two places are connected by nar- row guage railway which carries down to Nacozari all the ores mined, and at the latter place they are concentrated and the concen- trates shipped to the Douglas smelters over the Nacozari railway?
 Yet such reputable newspapers as the Arizona Republican, the Los Angeles Herald, and a number, of others that might be mentioned pay from three to five dollars per column for that kind of misinfor- nation and print it as news"

crat) of South Carolina: I'll my ten year-old son succeeds me in congress he might vote for the admission of Arizona, but l will not"
 MT. Hamilton, chairman of the house committee on territories said he had worked hard for years to get Arizona into the union and would regret to see the adoption of a constitution which will have the effect of keeping it out for years, and no knowing how long.
 Representatives Fassett of New York and Campbell of Kansas, and many others were even stronger.
 In reply to the foregoing the Arizona Gazette of Thursday pres ented the following choice assort. ment of criticisms of the congress- men and senators in the special telegraphic correspondence of the Journal Miner:
 The most remarkable thing to me in this fight to defeat the con- stitution in Arizona, and with its defeat the defeat of statehood is the fact that not a man is opposed to it at Washington except men who are known supporters of the Stan dard Oil Co.,, and other boodling corporations.
 Dwight of N. Y. associated with Chauncey Depew in the giving the Standard Oil and N. Y. Central R. R. corporations control of the re- publican machine defeated 1910." r End. Dalzell of Pennsylvania, a supporter of the Mathew s. Quay ring, exposed by Sibley in the Pittsburg deal in 1909; majority reduced 40 per cent in 1910.
 3rd. J. w. Bailey, lacked only 4 votes of complete impeachment in Texas in 1906, as bribe taker for Water Pierce Oil machine, an arm of the Standard Oil Co.,, exposed openly in 1910 as the Texas attor- ney for the Standard Oil and the Texas legislature censured him by over a two-t thirds vote, and he must retire from the senate at the ex- piration of his term. His excuse is "a delegate abused me" in Ari- zona. An, the bribe taking hench- men of the perjured Pierce at Aus tin, Texas.
 4th. Henry will support the statehood question, though he is with Bailey in way.
 9th. Lloyd of Missouri, the only democrat of the entire Missouri delegation opposed to the constitu- ton. He is member of Ed. But ler's r'sring-opposed Folks measures and elected under suspicion and openly charged with being an ardent supporter of the railroad merger of 1910."
 9th. Finley of South Carolina the only member of the entire state delegation in congress whose ma ioritv was reduced, nearly defeated in 1910; under charge of support ing the Standard Oil and the Steel Merger graft.
 The idea of parading these men as the great friends of the peoplel But 1 suppose men just like them will be hired to oppose the people as long as corporations make money by robbing the people.

templates more direct rule by the

H. j. Leddy, public examiner,
finished his audit Of the accounts in
the livestock inspection board last
week and the report Was furnished 10
the senate committee and attorney
general.
In his findings Leddy lays stress
on the concise and clear method in
which the affairs Of the board arc
conducted. In one or two cases
minor neglect Of details are mention
ed. Senator Cross chairman Of the
committee from the Legislature that
is investigating the board, said that
the public examiner had made his
inquiry particularly rigid
The report shows that for two wears
the board has had ON hand in funds
about $4,000 each month. All the
discrepancies mentioned were of the
ordinary kind that could be develop
ed in any business house, and were
mostly the result of lack of system
IN itemizIng expenses. The report
states plainly that the board, 30 far
as the accountants could determine,
was conducted in the best interests
of the livestock industry Of the state.

Field and Farm:-The people of
the west are beginning to realize that
the only way to overcome the out
RACES inaugursted by the forestry
service is to have congress cede the
land to the various states. A meet
ing looking TO this end will be held
in Denver next August called by the
governor at the instance of the legis-
lature. Several thousand delegates
will be here from all parts Of the
west, and the work Of the convention
will be devoted largely TO the forest
reserves. Ii is suggested that the
revenue from the sale Of land or from
royalties should be used by the states
to build good roads and complete
irrigation works and assist in the
reclamation Of lands IN a much
broader manner than is possible by
the general government This
would provide millions for develop
ment work and would of itself start
boom in the west that would eclipse
anything that has gone before. Pa

''Clean Up Day in Oakland has been
set for Wednesday by the Civic Club of
the town and the event promises to be
of more than ordinary interest and i'm
portance to everyone who wishes to
have the city present a clean and neat
appearance.
At called meeting Of the Club held
Tue-day afternoon plans were perfected
for lhc campaign Of cleaning up. These
plans are in line with those adopted by
the State government. The interest in
the meeting was shown by the large at
tendance of members.
A committee composed Of several
members Of the club which was appoint
ed to wait upon Mayor Hart and the
City Council at its meeting held last
Monday night reported that the govern
ing body Of the town had acceded to the
request Of the club and promised that on
Wednesday, the 18th inst. teams would
be provided to remove the refuse gath
cred up and deposited in proper recep-
tacleS. These receptacles should not be
large something that can be easily
handled-and should be placed at con
venient points along the streets and
alleys so that the men and teams may
be able to gather them with the least
possible delay. Persons who possibly
can, however, are requested to dispose
of their own rakings and debris as it
will be almost impossible for the mu-
nicipal teams to carry all away the same
day.
The next meeting of the club will be
on Wednesday, MAY 3lst, when all mem
bers are requested to be present.

Fruit Crop Not Injured.

There has been some anxiety as to
whether or not the fruit crop had been
injured during the cold snap of last
week. Several mornings there was
frost and ice was reported in some sec
tions of the county, but from all tn
information gathered no damage has
been done to the buds, and they are in
thriving condition. Doubtless the
dry condition of the atmosphere was the
reason they were not hurt.
