TATE MINE INSPECTOR THINKS ELECTION DOUBTFUL
G. H. BoIin Says Injunction Pro-
 ceedings Will Be Brought.

Bisbee-G. H. Bolin, state mine in spector, arrived in the city yesterday and will spend several days in this district for the purpose of looking over the mines here. His two deputies are in the field in other parts of the state on a similar mission. This is his first return to Bisbee sine he went to the capital city following his ap- pointment as state mine inspector.
 It is MT. Bolin's opinion that there will be no state election this fall and as he is thought to be very close to the administration his opinion will carry weight among his friends here. The governor has declared that he, is in favor of holding an election, but it is assumed that his declaration was made with mental reservation, if the election could be legally held, and in order to determine the legali- ty of such an election the matter will probably be taken before the Supreme Court on injunction proceedings. It is the opinion of many lawyers that the constitution will have to be amend el if there is to be an election, whi ch is quite out of the question of poli- ticianS.

GENERAL ELECTION IS NOW
 SURE FOR NEXT NOVEMBER

Phoenix, June 5th--It can be stated today that there is no longer doubt about the general election being held next November in the state for the election of state, county and precinct officers. All doubt in this question day passed the election bill. A simi- lar measure has already passed the senate where the measure has been favored from the start. The passing of this new law will do away with conflicting sections in the constitu- tion. Already the action of the house has yesterday started the poli- ticaI bees bttzzing around the capital and around the courthouse in this city.
 Dr IF. A. Hughes announced sey- eral weeks ago that he would again put his hat in the ring for governor, but his friends recognize that if all the appointees of Governor Hunt give him support then Dr. Hughes will, on that account be heavily handicapped in the primary race.
 The passing of prize fight bill in the senate has been received with much delight among the sports in Phoenix and it Is expected that if the law is enacted several fistic encoun- ters of importance will be pulled off in the state at early dates.

DOUGLAS MAN CO., Al :.
 That a Douglas man has. success fully conquered the air with a ma chine designed by --imself and built in this city, can no longer be doubt ed. A. M. Williams, inventor and builder of the machine made two successful flights in Douglas last week and those who saw them de- clare that nothing more could have been expected in the way of air navi- gation. While no attempt was made to attain any great height in each of the flights this morning Williams raised to four hundred feet or more and had the machine under perfe ,t control from the time he left the ground until he returned to earth.
 This machine is an aeroplane, b::- is unlike any ever before successful ly put into use, and MT. Williams has been at work on it for more than three years and has had the assist ance of no experts at any time.

These sums are in addition to the ap- appropriations made at the first session sof the legislature and bring the total appropriations to date up to $750,0O0. This figure does not include the road money which was appropriated in the state engineer and good road bill pass ed this afternoon.
 The senate spent much time this week discussing moral problems which they hope to cure with the white slave law they finally agreed to. They also read for the first time and, under sus- pension of the rules, passed a strict pure food law similar to the bill con- aSidered at the last session proposed .by Senator Vessel of Yuma.
 One senator, evidently tired of wait ing for adjournment, left for his home ,on Wednesday morning, Senator Low in Mohave county. His interest in the legislation waned when the prize light bill, of which he was author, was passed and sent to the Governor. That official, however, has to date given the measure no consideration.
 Both houses passed state tax levy bill which includes the road and school levy and amounts to $2.O5.
 The senate has passed an anti railroad pass bill applicable to state officers and legislators and the house amended and passed strict law affecting the white slave traffic.
 Much time was given this week to The bill for an amendment to the state constitution and providing that school land leases may be given to extend for ninety-nine years. An effort to reduce the term was made by the Co chise county members and votes were taken on every year from thirty up, no agreement being reach .ed till the ninety-nine year proposition carried.

Good WHALING in the Pacific.

~SOSA ss'S~bss9 ~ zss'S sASsssSss
Five hundred whales thus far in the
season, thirteen Of them sperm whales,
is the wonderful record made since
the beginning Of the season, according
to Captain Shadforth Of the steamer
Grey, tender for the Canadian North
ern Pacific Fisheries company, which
maintains number of whaling sta
tons along the coast of British Co
lumbia.
In addition to the 500 males caught
at the three stations there are many
hundreds which have been caught
along the coast by other companies
and by American and Norwegian con-
Germs In Alaska waters. It is be-
lieved that before the season is over
at least 1000 whales will have been
caught on the north Pacific coast.
The huge number Of mammals
caught in such short period is di..

whaling, when it would have taken
years for big feet of sailing vessels
to have caught a similar number Of
whales by the old hand harpoon.-Van-

INTEREST IN DAIRY FEEDING
Bulletin of Pennsylvania Experiment
Station Discusses Matter In
Most Thorough Manner.


To those Of our readers who make a
careful study Of dairy feeding, bulle-
tin LA of the Pennsylvania expert
ment station will be very interesting.
The principles in dairy feeding are
gone into both in theoretical and
practical manner. In a rough way the
following rules are laid down as good:
/. Feed grain in proportion to milk
yields; that is, give her, for example,
one pound of grain mixture per day
for each three or four pounds Of milk
produced.
2. Feed all the roughage which the
cow will eat up clean, up to the point
where she gains too much weight.
3. Whenever she becomes too fat re-
duce the amount of roughage, leaving
the amount Of grain to be determined
by the milk yield.
Food requirements for cows OF diff
ferent weights and cows producing
different amounts Of milk are given
In tables. Most Of our readers will
find the methods as described in the
bulletin extremely unscientific, but af-
ter they have studied it little they
will find it quite simple and, we be-
lieve, lite practical. Of all the ex-
pertinent stations the Pennsylvania
has done the most scientific work
with feeding stock Pennsylvania
