OPIUM MANUFAC- TURENEW ARIZONA
 INDUSTRY
Chinese Laundry in Prescott Pro- duced $5OOO Worth of Hop
 Juice to Frying Officials

FL PASO-Dream dope manufac- ture is one of the newly discovered in- dustries of Fl Paso and the Great Southwest which is not listed in the Fl Paso Herald's latest progress mum. Der. Through the El Paso special agents office of the treasury depart ment a complete opium manufactur- colt, Ariz., and other similar plants for the making of the dream stuff are believed to be in existence in Fl Paso and various parts of the southwest
 H. s. Creighton, custom agent at Nogales, Ariz., but attached to the Ell Paso office, of which special agent Charles E. Lewis is in charge, worked up the newest bit of treasury depart ment history and raided the Chinese laundry in Prescott where the illicit drug was being manufactured in a rear room. As soon as custom agent inal suspicious that opium was being made in the United States from raw materials brought from other coun- tries, he reported it to the internal revenue department of the treasury department, as the custom service and the special agents office have only the illegal importation of opium to watch R. H. Love was sent from the revenue service to Arizona to assist in the investigation. G. A. Demo, of the revenue service in Denver, and F. R. Crandall of the same service at Phoenix assisted in the case.
 The laundry, when raided, was found to have more than $5,0OO worth of the poppy wax in various stages of manufacture.
 A complete outfit for the manufac- turing of commercial opium which is coveted so by the Chinese, a number of opium smoking kits and 5000 lab els printed in Chinesef or the opium cans, were also confscated at Pres colt and Winslow where the raids were made. Two Chinese were foun1 busily engaged in cooking the hop over a laundry stove, and a young American girl was found in one of the hunks of the laundry.
 It is believed by the government of ficials that the Chinese have resorted to this method of obtaining the drug and that there are number of sec ret plants in operation in the Fl Paso Chinatown.-El PaSo Herald.

MIAMI HAS FINE GLASS SAND
Expert Says the Great Deposits in Bloody Tanks Wash is
 Very High Grade

- :MIAMI-From present reports it would seem that another industry may be. added to the many potentiali- ties of this region. The sand found everywhere in Bloody Tanks wash and continent draws" already known to be absolutely perfect sand for con- crete, has been pronounced by an ex- pert to be an exceptionally fine sand for the manufacture of the better kinds of glass.
 The finer grades of glass are made of silica, employed chiefly in the form of sand, white and comparative ly pure, like the sand in the Miami district. The other ingredients are mainly potash, soda and lime. The lime is present in the silicious sands of the Bloody Tanks Wash in the de- sired proportion.

CONVICT Is PUT ID THE TEST
 0N HONOR
Governor Hunt Will Try Out His Theory That a "Jailbird' May be Worthy of
 Confidence
GIVEN MONEY AND R. R. TICKET
And Sent From Florence to Dewey to Bring Back a Team of Mules Be-
 longing to Arizona State

PHOENIX,-Robert Anderson, prisoner at Florence, serving sem tence of six and a half years for killing George Shanley in Gila county during a drunken quarrel in 1911, left that institution yesterday, in cit izen's clothes. He came by himself to the office of Governor Hunt in the capitol building at Phoenix, was given ticket to Prescott, twelve dollars in money, and some orders for provis- ions to be used on mercantile houses near Camp Verde, in Yayapai county.
 Anderson took the Santa Fe train north last night, unaccompanied and will go to Dewey. From there he will make his way to Camp Verde, procure team of mules belonging to the state of Arizona, and bring them back to the prison to be used on work at the bridge approach, instead of hiring the team of mules at present doing the same work.
 Anderson has been in the prison for about seven months. This start ling procedure followed an executive order transmitted to Captain Ryn- ming, the superintendent at Florence, from Governor Hunt Anderson is the first longtime man to enjoy the ac- tual benefits of the new system of humanity which will be inaugurated in the state prison. Other changes contemplated are the abolition of the stripes; the abolition of all forms of degrading punishment; of the honor system and the other features yet to be announced which will follow each other. depending entirely upon the practicability of the ideas as exper- fence demonstrates their value.
 There is no reason why a man in prison isn't as good as a man out side," is one of the theories on which the reforms to be inaugurated by Gov ernor will be carried out. That is un- til he has repeatedly demonstrated by some other course of action, that he does not want to be restored to the privileges of citizenship. In that case he will be allowed to remain un- der such conditions of the old penal system as are still retained.
 Anderson, on his novel journey, will be entirely out of touch with any sys- tenn of even nominal espionage. It will be perhaps ten days or two weeks before he can return, assuming that he makes good time across the coun- try. He has plenty of provisions, a good team-and nothing but his con- science to keep him from driving in any direction but the right one.
 Therein lies the crux of the gover- nor's theory-athat the good in a man is stronger than the bad-not some times but always. If Anderson dem- onstrates the truth of Governor Hunts belief he will proportionately benefit the other men inside the pri- son walls.

REPORT ONFOREST PURCHASES
The Relation of Areas Sought with
 Navigability of Drainage Streams

In discussing the administration of the Appalachian Forest Reserve Act, commonly known as the Weeks Law, the Director of the United States Geological Survey, in his annual re- port for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1911, states. that the Geological Survey reports required under that law must involve something more than perfunctory action and must consist of a showing of facts rather than an expression of opinion. The law places upon the Geological, Sur vey the determination of the funda- mental question whether the. control of specific tract of land pertains to the promotion or protection of nav igation and stipulates that favorable report to the Secretary of Agricul- ture must precede the purchase of the tract considered.
 The solution of complex scientific problems is required in order to es- 'tablisn actual and substantial relation tracts and the navigation of streams and while the responsibility for this determination had not been sought by the Geological Survey, this new appli-- cation of scientific investigation to an administrative problem has been accepted by the Survey as directly in line with it's geological and hydro graphic work.
 Tt was at once recognized that as the determinative agent, whose favor able report must precede any action by the National Forest Reservation Commission, the Geological Survey would be exposed to criticism alike by those favoring broad interpretation of both natural and statutory law and by those who had opposed the enact ment of the Weeks Law as embodying a subterfuge."
 Prior to July 1, 1911, the Survey favorably reported on 92,995 acres, and between July 1, 1911, and Janu- ary l, 1912, on SS3,6S5 acres addition ala total of 976,6SO acres. These areas are available for possible pur- chase within the discretion of the National Forest Reservation Commis- sion, inasmuch as the Geological Sur vey has shown a distinct relation be- tween the areas on which reports have been made and the navigability of the streams that drain these areas.

Vague cloud shadows seemed to fiit across the level surface, assuming fan tastfc shapes, but all of the same dull coloting, imperfect and unfinished.

BRYAN WILL BE FIRST WITNESS
 CALLED
Committee on Currency and Banking Will Ask Him to Explain What He Meant When He Said Committee
 Was Dominated by
 the Trusts

WASHINGTON, D. c. Feb. 26-Wil- liam J. Bryan will be the first witness to be called before house committee on banking and currency to testify in the money trust investigation which the Democratic caucus repudiating MT. Bryan's demand for a special com mittee referred to standing commit tees of the house.
 MT. Bryan trod on the toes of the democratic members of the commit tee recently when he declared the money trust thought it could con- trol the committee. The committee insists that MT. Bryan explain what he meant, notwithstanding that MT. Bryan's adherents in the caucus We'd nesday offered a resolution which was adopted expressing confidence in the committee.
 'The committee is a unit," said Representative Pujo, chairman of the banking and currency committee, 'in the decision that MT. Bryan must ex- plain to us exactly what he meant"
 
 with saying about the committee:
 Democrats, bewareI The money trust having failed in it's efforts to prevent an investigation is now try ing to force an investigation by the banking committee. The fact that the money trust wants that committee en- trusted with the investigation is proof positive that it thinks it can control that committee"
 In marked contrast to the proposals made by Representative Henry of Tex as, chairman of the rules committee for an investigation of the money trust was a resolution introduced to- day by Representative Pujo eliminat- ing all specific reference to the mon ey trust"
 The Pujo resolution was approved by the majority of the committee to which the Democratic caucus referred most of the inquiry. Representative Vreeland, ranking Republican mem- Der of the committee, first intellectual ly attempted to have the Republican members invited into the committee meeting.
 The Pujo resolution was referred to the rules committee. It sets forth that the committee is desirous of se- curing full and complete information regarding the banking and currency conditions of the country for the pur- pose of demanding such legislation as is needed.
 There are no specific references in the resolution to control of money by financial groups and their domination of railroads, industrial corporations, national banks and the New York Stock Exchange and clearing house.
 This resolution has been introduced by me upon my own responsibility and reflects only my personal views" said Representative Pujo, after the of Democrats.
 There has been much loose talk by uninformed persons about mono polistic control of financial conditions in this country. Should such: 'condi- tions exist no doubt legislation along proper lines will not only be recom- mended by the committee on banking and currency, but will be enacted by the house. The monetary system of this country, is a scientific and not a political question. It should be inves- tigated along these lines"
