Bull Head Canyon Dam.

H. J. Heffron, who has charge of the work of the Chuckawalla Valley De- velopment company at Bull Head Canyon, directly west of Kingman, on the Colorado river, was a Kingman visitor this week. He reports that it is the intention of the corporation to build dam across the Coloaado river with the view of developing many thousand horsepower, which will be transmitted to the Colorado rIver be- low Needles, from which point water will be raised by means of pumping stations onto the lands of the company in San Bernardino county, California.
 It is the present intention of the company to build a dam one hundred and fifty feet high and six hundred feet in width at the base and one thousand or more feet at the top. The work is estimated to take three years in completion, but as soon as the dam is brought to twenty feet above the level of the stream power will be developed for all uses at the dam and transmitted to other points on the river.
 The corporation back of the enter prise is said to be one of the strongest in the country and have a substantial treasury to back them up in the work. The building of this dam will employ more than three hundred men and will cost into the millions of dollars. The developing of hydro-electrIc power in this country means great things for the mining and other inter- ests of this country, as cheap power will be developed and distributed to the various sections where mining can be carried on. In the neighbor- hood of the dam are located some of the best mines in the county and these will be greatly benehtted by cheap power, while at the same time all the mines in Wallapai district can be readily reached.
 Bulls Head Canyon is about thirty two miles west of Kingman and a fairly good wagon road runs direct to the river at that point. By doing a small amount of work in the way of removal of rocks from the west part of the road automobiles and trucks could easily negotiate the road to the Chuckawalla Development camp. Our business men should get busy and get their share of the trade of the camp.

Painfully Burned.

While attempting to burn up a can of black powder that he wished to destroy, Casper Heck, a well known mine owner, was painfully burned about the legs, hands and face, last Tuesday. He had poured the powder in heap on the ground and placed a fuse to it and struck match to light the fuse, when the head of the match flew into the heap of powder, setting it off. Mir. Heck was standing over the powder and got the full force of the explosion.
 He was taken to Kingman and is now in the hospital suffering greatly from his injuries. His hands and legs are fearfully burned and it is feared that his injuries may be of a perma- nent nature.
 Mr. Heck has been mining in and around the Tom Reed section the past ten years and had some desirable property near that place upon which he has been working.

A. G. Wells, general manager of the Santa Fe, accompanied by R. Arey, chief engineer, went over the Western Railway of Arizona Thursday last. It is understood that the visit of these officials portend important changes in the railroad and that there is possibility of the line being ad- vanced to meet the road that is now building from Moapa to St Thomas. The construction of the Chloride road to St Thomas would give an outlet to the north and gave the farmers of the Muddy valley a market for all their products in this section. By building to connection with the Salt Lake railroad the miners of this county would be afforded better smelling facilities for their ores by getting into the Salt Lake market.

New York, July 22.--"All aucn

assurance John e. Parsons gave the

they asked him how to curb the big
corporations. When the former at
torney Of the American Sugar Rein
ing company took the stand again,
Representative c. Kinds inquired:
las probably the worlds most emil
nen expert on these matters. what
would you suggest that a sovereign
government can do to prevent these
great combinations of capital from the
-extravagances they have exhibited in
the past"
My theory is, and 1t is supported
by the greatest economic writer's. tina

piled Mr.. Parsons. III there is toe
much water in the stock, that will take
are of itself. The government cannot
in equity interfere in private affairs
There should be no limit to capitali-
cation SO long as 1t is not Injurious or
fraudulent"
Mr.. Parson opposed the law whieh
permits the government to examine
the books. question the officers and
obtain the secrets of a corporation.
Mr.. Parsons repudiated the many
statements which have been made that
II. O. Havemeyer was the one power
in the sugar trust and that the board
IF directors always did as he babe. He
insisted that the American Sugar Re-
lining company is not a trust: similar
to Standard Oil or the American To-.
