Colorado Editor Gives Non Partisan Advice Which Prescott People
 Should Heed
CFrom Saturdays Daily.)

The following letter received by the Chamber of Commerce from prominent newspaper man of Colo rado Springs, is particularly pertin- ent in view of the fact that Yavapai county has a candidate for governor:
 "I understand you are running a Yavapai county man for the office of governor of Arizona. I do not know whether he is a democrat or a re- publican. But, for goodness sake, teach your people that it is better to have, for instance, a democratic governor from Prescott. than a re- publican governor from some other section of your state. Let both par ties get behind the local man.
 Let us say that we have a demo- crat running for governor from Colo rado Springs; Boulder is running republican and I am a republican,. l will boost and vote for the democrat as against the man of my own party from Boulder Every time. If every republican will get behind the local man, we have the basis of a good public spirit and show that our home Interests dominate partizanship. This principle enters into a hundred af- fairs of life every year in a com munity's history.

ELECTRIC LINES
 MAY SOON BE BUILT

(From Wednesdays Daily
 It is now practically assured that a new transmission line of the Ari- zona Power company will be con strueted to the Weaver mining dis trict in southern Yavapai in tho near future NJ. V. Watson, general man lger of the Prescott Gas and Flee tIie company which is a subsidiary corporation of the Arizona Power company, so stating to a Journal Miner representative yesterday.
 The line will cross over the Sierra orietas and touch at the Commercial Niring company's camp, Copper Hiil, U. s. Navy and Mint camps in Cop per Basin district From there it will run through Peoples valley, touch at the YarnelI mine and for the present the terminus will be at the .Alvarado mine three miles cast Of Congress Junction.
 This indicates a new mining era for the Weaver district. The Yarnell .rine has changed hands. aul .s now m charge of representatives of a new and strong company. The camp Is being rehabilitated and the old openings in the mine are being put In good condition and deeper devl- 0pments are planned. The mill will be put into commission and the old time activity on Yarnell mountain will again be noted
 The Alvarado camp is also one which has been in readiness to start producing on a large scale for sev- era. years, the power problem being the main stumbling block in the way. Tine property is developed to the tFousand-foot level and two shafts at that depth are eOnnecte+ up by a SiIift 1000 feet long. Much pay ore 1s blocked out and ready for stoPing. The property is equipped with Gwenty-stamp mill and two tube mills for regrinding the ore to a fine mesh, suitable for treatment by the Butters filter process, and direct ey- aniding a complete equipment for which is already installed. It is claimed that it is possible to save as high as 9O' per cent of the values in this property by this method. The equipment is all new and in splendid condition. E. w. Durfee, HoughtOn, Mich, graduate is in charge as su- perintendent.
 The Copper Basin district having recently sprung into prominence is . one of the links that has been miss ing in the chain for a long time to enable the power people and the Al varado Gold Mining company to get connected mp. The Alvarado could not run without more power and has hence lain idle, all except keeping the water out of the mine and keep Ing up outSide work But, they did not feel. so the story goes, like mak- ing the advances necessary to jus tify the rower company to build a transmission line for that distance.

 The negro is possessed of melo- dious voice colored with tint of sad ness. It harmonizes wierdly with his bass fiddle crutch because the tones of the latter are elusive and have to be found. Both together might suggest the search of two musical souls for the Host chord" or better still perhaps love in search of a word.'
 At any rate the clever improvisa ton of the queer negro has gained for him a wide reputation among the peo- pie frequently passing First, Second and Third avenues, and his trick may still be a riddle for music study clubs
 In addition to his crutch he gives tuneful performances on a harmonica held out of his mouth by a rack, toy drum hung about his back from his neck and a buggy wrench suspended from button hole of his coat

Jackson Has Disorder

Jackson, Miss, September 27.-(Spe- cial.)-The strike situation so far as Jackson is concerned is getting really Interesting. being enlvened tonight by two or three knock down and drag out fist fights. ss-i'
 The strikers had assembled in large numbers at the corner of Capitol and Mill streets, next to the Illinois Gen. tral passenger depot abouts9 o'clock when a young man named Morley, who came in from the country today to take a desk in, the freight office, walked up. He was assaulted by an employe of the Gulf and Ship Island. Morley. though the smaller of the two, knocked his as salant down and was pummelling hYm vigorously when another Gulf and Ship Island man also bounced Morley and was getting the best of him when De- tective Will Ligon waded through the crowd and rescued Worley. That ended the fighting for the time being. .
 During the afternoon a United States marshal served injunctiOns on all the strikers, he could find, enjoining them from interfering with the employees of the Illinois Central or it's business Meantime Agent Bevins has filled the places of several of the strikers and while he is having a hard time with raw help, his depot and yards are not as badly congested as he feared

 To hear the plaintive song of the strange, crippled darkey with his imita- tion bass violin accompaniment which he executes by drawing his artificial foot back and forth across his finger tip placed against the hollow facing of door or easement of a wall for the sake of resonance, frequently men are found gathered at midnight where the queer fiddler is wont to perform.
