l BATTERED KNIGHT
 AND ILLOGICAL LADY

Mrs. Iva May Henry, who eloped from her husband in Seattle with the cashier of the bank for which that husband worked, now calls the cash fer a knight. "
 Wonder whether Mrs. Henry recalls the White Knight of Alice's adven- lures? He was sentimental fellow, and wept and sighed, but he could not sit on his horse, just the same. The noble steed was more than he could manage, and Cashier Kelly ap- pears to have been much the same sort of blunderer There is nothing heroic about the figure he cuts just now, at any rate, and it must indeed be an overwhelming, all-consuming passion on the part of a young wom- an like Mrs. Kelly to see in a pale and shaking prisoner an object of love and admiration.
 There may be some sympathy for the woman in her role of unappre- ciated wife, for the world. knows that there are many faithful helpmates that find their spouses far from meet

Mark Bradley, general manager of the Arizona Mines Company, owning the Tomboy group, who returned to his camp yesterday, stated that he would begin immediately the cross cutting of the vein from the 3GO-foot level, and this plan of development will be followed out later and as depth is reached. He expressed him self as better pleased with the deter mutations made recently than at any time in the history of the property and believes that the creation of a desirable mine is already established. He was accompanied by his nepaew, NJ. B. Elmore, "a young man of Bos- ton, who comes to Arizona to se- quire knowledge of practical mining

NEW CUMBERLAND
 CHURN DRILL WORKING
(From Wednesdays Daily.)


 Thomas Roach, foreman of the New Cumberland mines in Pine Flat, arrived from the camp yesterday and will return today, accompanying Dr. Woodburn to the city, the latter be- ing en route east. Mir. Roach states that the first hole drilled by the new churn drill has reached depth of 150 feet and mineral conditions es- tablished are satisfactory. The bore at present is in pOrphyry formation, characteristic of that belt, and will be driven to great depth before the field is further explored. All lOea- tions of the company will be ex- pfOred, when large mine development will be inaugurated. He is sanguine over results.

for them; but, when she says, "I hate all this talk about my relations with MT. Kelly" what does she ex- pect9 The world has elected to de- clare such relations as those which the Seattle court believed these two elopers bore to cath other as illicit and all such relations are prohibited by the law. Regrettable as it may appear to the eyes of Mrs. Henry she is but an atom in community that the laws govern. If a sufficient number of the atoms go her way, ner way would be law; as it is, the atoms do not go that way, because Divine as well as human law forbids them.
 ''I think it is fair to say that it is none of the worlds business,'' she exelaims. All law-breakers start that way. Cain probably considered it from that point of view when he slew Abel. Helen and Paris looked at their elOpement much in the same light, doubtless. Every thief takes similar view of the world and the law.
 Hence Mrs. Henry will have to suffer the penalty of disobeying not only the written law. but that more important, though unwritten, doctrine of what is right and wrong What the World Says. And her Knight Kelly, with his shield gone, his gild- ed spurs tarnished, his armor badly dented, and his arms taken from him. can never help her.

STATEHOOD DEPENDING
 ON ACTION OF SENATE
Special to the Journal Miner)

Special to the Journal Miner)
 WASHINGTON, D. C., April 12.-
 Among ArizOnans in the capital are
 George W. F. Hunt of Globe, who
 was president of the constitutional
 convention, F. NJ. Avis, E. B. O'Heil
 and c. H. Akers, all of Phoenix. The
 gentlemen are here in the interests of securing approval of the Arizona
 constitution. MT. Hoval Smith of
 Bisbee, has also been here. looking after private business matters. The Democratic house program is to se- cure joint action on the New Mexico and Arizona statehood documents, and
 senate It is not expected that President Taft will act upon the Arizona constitution until it shall have been tnreshed out in congress, although at one time it was thought in some quarters that he might first disapprove of the document. The whole controversy seems to rest-as at last session, with the senate, and while Arizona has its supporters there who will seek to secure approval of its constitution, yet it is very ques- tiOnable whether enough votes can be mustered to save the document.
 Two matters of foremast importance to the people of Arizona, which are on the Democratic schedule, are the Canadian reciprocity and the tariff schedule on wool. Under the agree ment proposed with Canada, cattle will be admitted to the markets of the United States, free of duty, and regions like those of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas which are large producers of cattle will be affected. The same regions are also vitaly in- terested in the proposal regarding the tariff on wool, as wool growing is one of the great industries. From a careful canvass of the situation, your correspondent finds that the wool industry is considered of vast importance to many sections of the east, including Ohio, Pennsylvania and New England, and that these regions will join with the mountain states, extending as far west as the Pacific coast, in resisting a change in the present schedule. The Demo- crats of the house are pledged to re- dueing the tariff, and President Taft is also expected to bend every energy in the same direction.

George Group Taken0 Over By Boundary Cone
 Interests
Gold Road Continues Its Regular Bullion
 Shipments
(Mohave County Miner)

Last Saturday the bonanza mines of Dr. George, near the Hercules, west of Gold Road, were taken under bond by the Boundary Cone Mining company, q Prescott, Arizona, ineor- poration. It is understood that the sale price is s1O0,O0O, a large pay ment being made. The corporation is required to do a large amount of work on the mines and make the full payment within twelve months. The Boundary Cone company has been at work on its property near the Tom Reed the past year and it is under- stood that they nave been keeping their eyes upon for more property in that section. The George property is said to be one of the greatest gold showings in the district and the com pany is indeed lucky in securing it.. While the shafe is down but ninety feet the outerop is truly wonderful in she showing of rich ore, several feet on the footwall of the vein run ming about $1OO to the ton. The en- tire twenty feet of the vein runs over SIP in gold, giving it a good milling value.
 T. J. Grant cannes in from Music mountain last Thursday, where he has been at work the past month or two. He reports matters in the Music Mountain section rather quiet, but expects revival within month or two. The Arizona Nevada Mining will soon be erecting its mill and will do a large amount of work on its mining property.
 Thursdaylast J. F. Cornell brought a big bar of bullion from the Gold Road mill that weighed $1s,000. The bar was weekly run of the plant, although it did not represent the full cleanup. The mill is running very smoothly and the percentage of say ing is exceptionally high.

VETERANS HONOR THEIR FORMER
 COMRADE Dr. WE. Day Reelected Medical Director At
 Encampment Only Hundred and Nine Members of GAR.
 In Arizona
(Prom Tuesdays Daily)

Al a recent department encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic of Arizona, held in Phoenix, Prescott was honored in the appointment of Dr. W. E. Day as the medical di- rector, receiving this recognition for the second time. Captain A. J. Judd, delegate from this city, who returned yesterday, states that the old guard is rapidly fading into memory, so far as membership is considered and in a few years hence but few will be alive to answer roll call.
 The attendance this year was less than at the previous eneampment, and while enthusiasm was manifested and a good time had the number of men identified with the organization in this territory was shown to be only 109. Old age keeps many away from their respective posts, and death mas taken scores to the great beyond.
 When taken into consideration that almost half a century has intervened since the war began, this deeimation is but a natural trend in the life of the old soldier however regrettable it may be.
 Dr. Day served the Union army in a professional capacity during the war, and his selection to minister to his surviving comrades is a source of qualification to his many friends in this city. .r.

LINCOLN BULLION ..-

The Prescott National Bank yester- day reported the receipt of bar of gold bullion from the Kniekerbocker Mining Company, in the Bradshaws, valued at 5000, the result of mill run of few days on ore from stopes in the Lincoln mine, which was taken over a few months ago. B. P. Miller, general manager of the company, also sent to this banking house a speei- men of oxidized ore from the new discovery made a few days ago, which carries free gold values that assay over $500 a ton, and which may be inspected by the public. MT. Miller states that the streak con tinues with development, and was ex- posed when old workings were clean up out. He continues work in that zone, and has taken out several tons which will be run through the mill later. The strike has oecasioned con- siderable excitement in the Brad shaw region. ...

THE REAL FRIENDS
 ..... OF STATEHOOD

While the constitutional convention
 was in session an almost united press
 begged and besought the delegates to
 either leave out the recall or to have
 It submitted to the people as a separ-
 ate provision of the constitution for adoption or rejection. The advocates of the initiative and referendum were
 urged to let the principle of referen-
 dunn be applied in this case. They
 were told that the recall proposition
 would certainly delay and might lose
 statehood for Arizona, but the con vention refused to let the people de- eide the question, and arbitrarily said: ," You must adopt the constitution with the recall or vote it down in the
 entirety" That the press of Ari- zona were right in declaring that the inclusion of the recall would delay statehood was demonstrated at the close of the last session of congress. Had the recall been omitted. to be inserted later if desired, Arizona would be well on the way to state hood, and all of the ugly criticism that has been heaped upon the con stitution by papers throughout the land would have been avoided.
 Now comes Senator Owen. who has been hailed as the friend of Ari- zona and statehood,' with a resolu- ton to admit the territory and to strike out the recall, for the people to insert if they so desire His reso- lution does just what the press of with some three exceptions, urged on the delegates while they were in session, and what that con vention refused to do. ]
 The long delayed and eagerly sought boon of self-government is in sight for the people of Arizona, and | the Owen resolution makes it clear and manifest as to who were the | true friends of statehood.
 Interest in polar exploration now centers around the south pole, three rival expeditions being reported as eamped on the ice waiting for sum mer to make their dash. A British party is under Captain Scott; a Nor wegian expedition is commanded by Ronald Amundsen, whose ship, the | Gjoa, which was the first to go through the northwest passage" is now in Golden Gate park, and a party | of Japanese under Lieutenant Shiras is in the same locality.

EFFECT OF LncoLN's DEATH


 It is forty-six years since Abraham Lincoln was stricken down by an asssssin-forty-six years, during which we have been slowly forging ahead to tbe point where the North and the South shall be merged and sectional difficulties shall be forgotten. That time has not yet come, for the old fires of fraternaI hatred are hard to queneh, and the Scotch proverb is as true of civil strife as it is of family pickering better kind fremit than fremit kin.''
 To think of what might have been is not always profitable, but when one reflects on the incidents that follow ea the murder of Lincoln, it is inn possible not to realize that the assass- in and not the surviving feeling of belligerency was responsible for all the decades that have gone by with the Solid South presenting the same unbroken political front that it had once in war placed before the ad- vsneing armies of the North.
 The Solid South is a sentiment. but it would not today be one, except perhaps as the Stuart cause is, if the staying of a great and good man wAo stood for Union and for Unit ed People had not aroused the fury of an outraged nation. Had Lincoln lived, the South would never have been handed over to the violating hands of the reeonstruetionists; the ignorant slaves would never have been placed in power over their for peT masters, and the insensste efforts at revenge for sustaining lost cause would never have prevailed. ,..a. !
 It is easy to trace in the conditions that have united to make the South solid the effects of the rage that swept the Union at the death of Lincoln. The states that had lately 1, been in rebellion and which were even then conquered awaiting only | Appomattox to acknowledge to the | world their defeat, were harried and Scuurged The Americans who had fought for their principles just as the North had fought for better and Robler principles, were treated as if they had been devils. It was the six or seven years that followed the close of the war that worked the i mischief in the South and not the war itself ...-
 And had that great kindly soul, Lin coin, lived the South would never have been seourged as if it had been brutal criminal, but would have been taken in hand and led back into the Union, as mother might take her erring daughter back 10 her heart and home.
 The murder of Lincoln threw the Union forty years back on its march of progress and unity.
