NOW UP TO CONGRESS.

According TO a ruling handed down
by the L. S. Supreme court yesterday.
only Congress and not the Supreme
court may object TO the initiative and
referendum method Of legislation in
the states.
The court holds that the question
~ whether state still maintained a
Republican form % government, as
guaranteed by the Federal consutu-
ton, after IL adopted the initiative
and referendum method. was a poliu-
cal problem FOR Congress and not
judicial one Tor the court
The decision was based on the claim
n the Pacific States Telephone & Tel
egraph company that tax upon it.
Imposed By the initiative and referen-
c8m method in oregon, was uncon-
siit1tiOnaL The initiative and refer
end1m provisions in Missouri. Califor-
MA, Arksnsas Colorado. south Dako-
-. Utah. Montana, Oklahoma. Maine
and Arizona hung in the balance. An
adverse decision would have affected
DroDosed legislation OF that character
% many other states. Chief Justice
White announced the decision of the
curt None Of the justices dissented.
The question IL one that deals with
state rights and Il Is doubtful whether
Congress will want to precipitate a dis
-uagion of It and open controversy.
which Will b. productive only Of great
bitterness. The initiative and referen-
dunn is popular IN the states which
have adopted the method, and many
other states are working In the direc-
ton Of similar legislation. 1t is
method that has to do with the affairs
Of the state itself, and IL appears right
and proper that each state should be
permitted to determine just how and
by what means It's own laws shall be
initiated and adopted.

| eight states is the administration now
in the hands of the Republicans. Tho
states which have Republican govern
ors. with their vote in the ELECTORAL
college. are:
California. 13; Delaware, 3; Illinois
2s; Iowa, 1S; Kansas, 10; Maryland. s;
Michigan, 10; Minnesota. II; Missou-
ri, 13; Nebraska, 8: New Hampshire,

Dakota, 5; Tennessee. -; Utah. A.;
Vermont. 4; Washington, z; West Vir-
sinia, s.; Wisconsin, 13; and Wyoming.
3. Total. 23s.
There will be 331 votes in the elec-
torial college. making 266 necessary to
choice. If the Republicans can hold
the states in which they now have the
governorship. they will need only 2s
additional votes 10 carry the next
presidential election. Normally the
Republicans can be expected to carry
all these states except Maryland and
Tennessee. Deducting the twenty
votes of these two states leaves 2ls
ELECTORAL votes, which under normal
conditions, the Republicans would be
reasonably sure OF carrying.
But the conditions this year are very
far from normal. The governors Of
Kansas. Michigan. Missouri. Nebraska,
New Hampshire. South Dakota, West
Virginia and Wyoming have openly
Joined the movement for the nomina-
tion Of Colonel Roosevelt. The aggre-

In seven other states which now
have Republican governors-Califor-
mia, Illinois, Iowa. Minnesota, New Mex
leo, Washington and Wisconsin-there
is also decided opposition TO President
Taft These states have an aggregate
Of ninety electoral votes
This puts one hundred sixty-one
ELECTORAL votes from the fifteen nor
mally Republican states into the
doubtful column the moment Pres
ident Taft is declared the nominee OF
the Chicago convention.
In case the nominee at Chicago is
Colonel Roosevelt. there is no reason
10 suppose that he would fail To car
ry any one of these Republican states
with the exception OF Maryland and
Tennessee He would be assured Of
at least 21S electoral votes TO start
with. 1t would be necessary for him
then in order to carry the election to-
win i'm other states an aggregate of
only as ELECTORAL votes.
The Roosevelt fight. therefore. would
have 20 be made in northern states
which now have Democratic admins
trations. There are twelve Of these

He has yet some very valuable mining interests in the Santa Rita mountains, and he promoted the Happy Jack Mining Company, which holds valuable group of claims in the region about twelve miles northwest from Pata- gonia. He retains large interest, and is general manager of the com pany, which embraces a number of Philadelphia capitalists. Upon the property there has been done con siderable work which makes a fine showing. With the revival of min ing in this part of the country 1t is likely that on their claims work will be resumed in the near future, with gratifying results.
 Some two years ago Mir. Barnett was appointed postmaster at Pata- gonia, which post he has filled acceptably to the public and credit ably to himself. He has faithful and efficient assistant in his daughter, Miss Lavinia Barnett.
 During the present year MT, Barnett has acquired the Commer' cial Hotel at Patagonia, and with the aid of Mrs. Barnett has con ducted that hostelry in first class style. The house is new and well furnished and neatly kept, the table is set with the best the mar ket affords, and the viands are vel cooked, everything being homelikt and satisfactory. The entire house and the service of the dining roou are given the close personal atten tion of Mrs. Barnett, who leaves nothing to be desired.

There were four men engaged in the attack, their names being Red6eld, Futile, Aylmer and Hens ley. The gang separated, Aylmer and Hensley travelling together, and the posse joined by Mr. Casa. mega trailed them. About the first of October Redfield and Futile were captured by posse headed by the sheriff of Pinal county, James H. Doran. They were lodged in jail at Florence, and the same night they were taken out and hanged by number of citizens.
 Upon the evening of October 3rd the posse joined by Mir. Casanega overlook the other two near Will cox, and in the running fight that ensued Aylmer was killed, and Hensley wounded, but the latter escaped. On the day following he was overtaken again, and put up stiff fight, being killed however, without loss toithesposse.
 Early in his residence in what is now Santa Cruz county Mr. Casa mega acquired valuable farm near Calabasas, and later another near Tubac.

 During his long residence in the region MT. Valenzuela has been always an active, energetic, wide awake hustler engaged in business activities that have counted. He has engaged in mining, cattle rais- ing, contracting, butchering, and various other lines of business where there offers opportunity for employment with fair return. At the present time he is engaged in running a meat market at Pata- gonia, a stage and mail line from Patagonia to Washington Camp and Duquesne, and in developing a promising group of four mines near The Worlds Fair, which is named the April group, and in which there has been made recent ly a very good development of cop. per ore of goodly grade.

The Pioneer Establishment Dealing in Drugs, Medicines and Toilet Articles.

Among the landmarks at Noga- les, doing business at the same old stand more than quarter of cent ury, is the International Drug Store, (Captain L. w.

Hector, an accomplished pharmacist of long experience, giv- ing personal supervision to all de- tails, who IS assisted with signal ability by Mir. Ronquillo, who is likewise a reliable compounder of prescriptions; and attended by these gentlemen the public are assured the utmost care and accuracy in preparation of prescriptions and compromising of medicines as pre- scribed. The pharmacopial stock is kept ever fresh and new, of stand ard strength, insuring effectiveness and accuracy of operation.

 sented always a remarkable variety

tes their rocky fastnesses, taKlng his life in his hand and braving all kinds of dangers, imbned with the hope that he may find gold, silver and other valuable minerals. In his hard and dangerous yet fascinat- ing work he blazes the trail that Is followed by others later, and paves the way for the operator, the miner the freighter, and the farmer who feeds them all.
 One of the earliest to come into the Santa Rita mountain region, was Mark Lulley, supposedly the original Wandering Jew, who cane into Arizona in the early '70's, mak- ing directly the region mention i ed. where he found at once several valuable mines that he sold to good advantage to some of the early operators, among which may be named the Goldtree mine (now the Alto Santa Rita group, and the Joplin group and other properties which yielded handsomely in those early days.
 After several years in Arizona Mark returned to the East, and fol- low other callings many years. But the. lure of. Arizona had been cast upon him and about dozen years ago he returned, bent upon seeking in the Santa Ritas another fortune, in other prospects. In furtherance of that desire he made careful exa- imitation and study of those noun tains, their formation, veins and lodges, locating several good prop critics, some of which he has turned to very good advantage. However
 he has kept some of tbe best, fol later corners; and in the Wandering , Jew, the M. X $. mines, and other ! fine properties, upon which he has done no little development, Mark has opened fine bodies of high grade ore which giving proof that they have the making of real mines : need but the touch of capital tC 2 make them highly productive. In his wanderings about tn Santa Ritas Mark has found man. 5 other good lodges that have tn r makings of mines, and he is read. t and willing at all times to pu l those seeking such opportunities 1T r touch them.
