MAKE OR BREAK

There are about two thousand young men in the United States who are going to settle, in the next six weeks, the final question of what they will amount to in life. They have entered the first year of the high school and without knowing it, are classifying themselves according to certain matters which will, in the end. help them to succeed or cause them to fail.
 None of these fellows are now aware that the way in which they take up their work; the amount of time they devote to social stunts; the ingenuity which they display in fooling the teacher, will settle their place in life. But the time will come in ten or twenty or thirty years from now when they will look back and see that the general atti- tude assumed toward life in high school days has become a permanent habit.
 The fellow who goes through high school lodging and Judging and funk ing will go right on through life in the same way, and when the last great commencement day arrives stands a good show of being dropped in the finals.

FOR A BETTER SAN FRANCISCO

That the outcome of San Francisco s municipal election the past week is a forecast of better things for the states metropolis seems to be agreed by all political and other factions in the state, with the exception perhaps of the defeated mayoralty candidate and a few of his deluded followers.
 The "get together" spirit seems at last to have united the numerous factions, whose differences have for years contributed largely to the sue cess of the elements which have con trolled the Sehmitz and Mccarthy ad- ministratiOns and made the name of San Francisco synonymous for vice and graft.
 But brighter day seems to be dawning. San Francisco seems in a fair way to be on the road to better things. The success of Rolph, with the united city at his back. spells in large letters success for the Panama exposition and the advancement of the city. the growth of which has been materially retarded for years by the policies of those in control of the municipal government.
 That Mccarthy did not have the united support of even the union labor men of the city is self-evident from a study of the election returns. Districts which are strongholds of union labor gave him bare maiorities where two years ago he received heavy votes. The thinking element in the ranks of union labor hesitated to support Mccarthy and many of them turned to the business mems candi- | date, believing his election meant better conditions.

WELCOME TO OUR VISITORS
(From Tuesdays DaiIy)

(From Tuesdays Daily)
 Arizona is entering upon the most critical point in her career and we are delighted to have among us today the men who will shape her course so that in the years to come the citi. zens of this great state will look back upon the work we are doing today and say it was done well. Good roads and sufficient money to i'm prove the vast resources of this ter ritory are the two most important features of our necessary develop ment.
 Today Prescott holds the high honor of acting as host to the two organizations which are supplying these most needed sinews of develop ment-the Arizona Good Roads asso- citation and the Arizona Bankers as soeiation. We are proud that we are able to claim the distinction of being the home of the president of the one and the home of the secre- tary of the other, and in addition to there is not a Preseottite in the en- tire city who is not strongly in faEor of the efforts of both organi- cations and most desirous of aiding the good work which they are doing.
 Money is essential to the develop ment of a community and every one has reason to be proud of the record of our territorial bankers investing their all in an unimproved land where opportunity is so closely eoupl- ed with risk.
 Good roads are the arteries of life of any commonwealth and the eff forts of the men who are in cOnven- tion here today have already borne such good fruit that we all feel that their efforts deserve more reward than it is in our power to grant them.
 In time, if they continue along the lines of development which they have so enthusiastically followed, the peo- pie of the entire country will look upon Arizona as the wonder outdoor state of the world. Our scenic ad- vantages, natural geological and eli matic conditions, coupled with the attraction of a series of good roads will bring tourists and homeseekers here from everywhere.
 Accept all we have and carry away with you the satisfaction of knowing that our only regret is that we have not more to offer to the men who are doing so much for the development of the new state.

the Chronicle in the following man ner:
 1.-The recent election will show tC all the world that when the issue i. fairly raised the people of this city will stand solidly for clean govern ment at the hands of capable men
 'As matter of fact the bad name which this city has had in the opin ion of the world was never deserved That such administrations as have discredited us have been repeatedly elected has been due to internal dis sensions which it is to be hoped are now permanently ended and in way to be forgotten.
 "Both the Schmitz and the present administration have been on such terms with organized vice as were a disgrace to the city and because they were chosen with what should have been general knowledge of their char acter the country has assumed that our whole community was tainted with vice.
 "It is not so and never has been so. We have, like other cities. our vicious element, and it is a large element but not strong enough of itself to elect anybody.
 ."But interruptions politicians have been able to deceive a large number of our workingmen into raising issues which are not legitimate political is- sues and have made them believe they could afford to condone an alli- anee with vice for the sake of the advantages which they might gain.
 "And even with that alliance, which never had the support of the thinking part of the workingmen, they have succeeded only by divisions among those who desired good gov ernment.
 HUnder the provisions of our new organic law that can never happen again, and from now on there is req son to believe it will never be pos sible to elect to any municipal office any but men of known good character and proper business capacity.
 FFor life in San Francisco is very intense. Never had a city a more vigorous population. And it is a fact that the honest men of this city are more strenuous in their fight for clean government than those of any other city in America. Conditions here have never been worse than in other cities. The difference has been that the revolt of good citizens has been more strenuous than elsewhere.
 "But good citizenship has won and will keep the upper hand here after fOrever.''

CORONER VISITS
 ARKANSAS AND ARIZONA
(Jerome Mining News)

NJeTOme MlnlHS NeWSl
 A feeling of utmost confidence as
 to the future of the property of the
 Arkansas and Arizona Copper eom-
 pany, was found to prevail in that
 camp when visited yesterday by the
 editor of The News in company with
 MT. A. c. Cordiner, of the firm of
 Hoover & Cordiner of this city. This
 was Mir. Cordiner's first visit to this
 interesting piece of mineral ground,
 and he having for years worked un-
 derground with the pick and drill
 and later handled the machinery
 above and below the surface in such
 mines as the famous Blackberry in
 Mohave county, and other great sil- yer producers during the early days of the great mineral producing south west, he naturally felt somewhat ex- cited over the splendidly equipped power house and other buildings of this company, and the substantial gallows frame and its equipment, all of which he pronounced as equal to any he had ever seen on the proper ties of the many prospecting com panies he had visited during almost a lifetime spent in mining camps. After an examination of the rock that was being hoisted from the shaft MT. COrdiner became deeply interest ed and eagerly accepted the invita- tiOn of General Manager J. E. Leeper to visit the underground workings. After a thorough examination he re- turned to the surface enthused with the splendid showing below and the bright prospects for the developing of a great mineral producer on the property, and also of the fact that the company had all machinery, be- low as well as above ground, neces- sary to thoroughly open up its huid ings.
 The main shaft is now down 960 | feet, the last 40 feet of which has | been sunk through quartz porphyry | heavily impregnated with iron. A fair sample of this formation, taken by Mr. Leeper and assayed at the office of the United Verde Copper | company, gave returns of $4 gold and 50 cents in silver.
 It is a well known fact locally that the Arkansas < Arizona Copper com pany is one of the most substantial md upright prospecting companies in he southwest. A company that is noted for square dealing. A com- 'any that does things, and lets the outsider do the talking. That the manner of doing business s also appreciated by people in other han the mining states, was foreibly brought home to Jerome under the OllOwing circumstances: Two weeks go The News published the organi- ation of the Jordan Mining eom- any, mentioning, incidentally, that he company would float a block of ( toek the proceeds of the sale to be ut into development work on the : rOperty.
