Officers Have White
 Elephant On Hands

The Tombstone Prospector says:
 Deputy Sheriff and Constable John Bright at Courtland has an Apache squaw on his hands that he would like to get rid of and at present is in a quandry as to what to do with her. The woman has been wandering around the Sulphur Spring valley for the past few weeks and was in the habit of going into the various ranches and helping herself to what she de- sired and in a number of instances scared the women who were on the places. Complaint was made and Mr. Bright went out and brought her in- to Courtland, and is now holding her there at that place. The authorities have written to the Indian agency at San Carlos to see if she is a ward of the government and if so to have them come after her. The woman re- fuses to talk anything but the Indian language and Mr. Bright has so far been unable to converse with her.

The Dollar Will
 Last Ten Days

Phoenix, Feb. 25.-In these days of anti-race track gambling, when a good mount is as scarce as the auxiliary appendages of the great American hen, when a dollar looks much bigger than a cartwheeI and a fellow is a profes- sional jockey, what's poor boy going to do?
 Morris Lowe did something. He went after this economic pressure in the right way-tried to beat Fate at it's own game. The fact that he land ed behind the bars and that bets on his getting out within the next ten days have been called off is another mat ter entirely. Morris did beat society to one dollar of American money and that's some achievement for a mem Der of his profession just now. He did it by running little aviation meet of his own sneaking boys into the fair grounds Thursday at two dimes head through the stable door
 It was fine little game. Morris saw all those four-bit pieces Hopping into the hopper at the gate saw the hungry-eyed kids hanging around in the street handed them the wise wink and opened a stable door Five young sters slipped through for twenty cents each before Walter Brawner, a special policeman was put jeremiah and then swooped down on Morris even as a governor with whiskers put the pro- fession to the bad in the far east not so many years ago
 Morris said he was broke so Justice Johnstone gave him free board and room for ten days

Washington, Feb. 25.-The tariff

Give Capital a Chance

It is being freely predicted that this
 is going to be a good year for the min
 ing industry of the west. We all hope
 that this is going to be the case, and, thus early in the season, the advance
 in metal quotations strongly indicate
 that the prophecy of good times com
 ing is going to be fulfilled, says the
 Mining Review.
 r But, the mine-owners of the west,
 must make up his mind to help if the
 prosperity is to be induced to settle
 in our midst, for prosperity, as we
 view the term, means money. Capi-
 tai, and this must be met half way
 if we hope to interest the owners of this money, of this capital, in the many mining propositions now held in abeyance because of lack of funds for their development
 Most every prospector, every claim holder and every mining man, is pos sessed of ground which he deems as valuable. It may be that, with prop CT development and equipment, it may produce millions in time But it is not worth millions now As matter of fact, it is practically vaIueless, and, at the utmost, could not show more than $5,OOO or $10,OOO blocked out of sight. Perhaps capital would be will ing to give twice this much for the prospect, and it would be money in the pocket of the owner to take it. But no, his ideas of values are fixed upon the future possibilities, and he wants $250,- 900 or $5O0,00O for the prospect upon which he has expended but small amount in development. And then he bewails the hard times and takes a fall out of capital when the would-be investor passes up the proposition for another which can be. had for some thing like it's present actual value
 How much better it would be to close a deal for $1O,OOO or $2O,OO0, and making a big piece of money, at that, than to scare away capital by asking exorbitant and unreasonable figures. As it is, it is the buyer who is taking a chance and not you. Capital always assumes this risk; but it does not pro- pose to deal in absurdities, and is all ways anxious to play as safe as pos sible
 If we want prosperous times the mining districts of the west, we must give capital a chance We must meet the man with the mon- ey half way. Put yourself in his place and then see how your own proposi- ton would strike you Don't be con tent to plod along year after year, without hardly the price of a meal in your pocket, just because you insist on asking more for prospect than reg liar producing mine is worth. Be more moderate in your demands, and give he other fellow, the man with the mon 9y, a chance to make something. You won't live always, and may not live to get million for a piece of mining ground that is not worth more than '50,000. Be reasonable. Help in get ing little real money in circulation n your camp, in your district; and give capital chance.

Roberts Mine
 Sold for $25,OOO
The Parker Post says:

The Parker Post says:
 A deal was closed Monday by Henry Roberts, John andf Dennis Burke, with a syndicate of Los Angeles mining men composed of J. NJ. OBrien, O.. w. Picotte, Joseph Nelson, and H. Osburn for the old Aviatia property in the Riverside mountains. The prop orty was taken over by the new own CTS under the lease and bond agree ment, the amount of the bond being $25,O00, one-fifth payable in six months and the balance in one year
 In the meantime, the owners agree to work at least six shifts per day turing the life of the agreement, but MT. OBrien, who will be in charge of the development work, stated Mon day that it was the intention of the company to employ twenty men.
 Messrs O'Brien and Picotte returned to Los Angeles Monday night to pur- chase a supply of cars, rails, etc., and stated that active work would be be- gun at once.
 Several tunnels and shafts on the property have exposed good bodies of shipping ore and the new management will begin the moving of ore to the smelter as fast as possible. A road will be built immediately, and a tram way erected from the main tunnel site for the purpose of handling the ore as economically as possible.

Democratic Primary
 To Be Held May 24th

Phoenix, Feb. 25.-Dividing Arizona into six districts, and giving them each one delegate to the Baltimore conven- tion on June 25, the state demoratic committee yesterday made arrange ments for the presidential primary to be held on May 24th, for the selection of Arizona's representation to the na- tional democratic convention.
 In redistricting the state, popula- tion and geographical location were jointly considered, and the plan finally agreed upon was adopted unanimous ly. The counties as grouped are con- tiguous and as rule have interests in common.
 At the same time the primary is held to select the Baltimore delegates, Ari- zona's democratic national committee man will be chosen in the state at large by popular vote.
 As districted by the committee, the state is divided as follows, each dist rict being numbered:
 1-Pinal, Gila, Graham and Green lee.
 2-Cochise.
 3-Yuma, Santa Cruz and Pima.
 4-Maricopa.
 5-Yavapai and Mohave.
 6-Coconino, Apache and Navajo.
 In addition to one delegate to be chosen in each district, the selection of one alternate will be made at the same time.
 On the same ballot will be placed the candidates for president, and each voter will be given an opportunity to express his preference for first, second and their choice.
 The preferential system of voting will be used under which the will of the majority no matter how many can 1idates are running is obtained by add ing to the first choice, the vote re- ;eived for second choice and third choice. This is continued until one of | the candidates has a majority of the votes cast.
 Democrats, who have been in Ari- lona one year previous to May 24, will )e allowed to vote, the election board being the judge as to his party fealty. t is not necessary that his name be )n the great register. He must be qualified the same as in regular cleo ion, except as to registration.
 County central committees in each county will conduct the election in heir counties, naming election boards, fixing the polling places and providing he ballots, as well as canvassing the eturns.
 Each county central committee must certify the returns to the state cen ral committee, which will announce he results of the vote
 The committee, which districted the tate, was chosen at the meeting of he state committee yesterday morn ng, and consisted of one member from ach county represented at the meet ng.
 Aside from districting, the details were arranged by a committeee con- isting of Mulford Winsor, M. G. Gun if, c. M. Zander, George P. Samp- on and Frank Poe, who were named y Acting Chairman 1. F. WOlpe.
