THE PIOUS MAN.

l knew man who was as pious as
man could be,
| He hated every sort of sin and all mi
guilty,
And he would raise his eyes to HEAVIER
in order not to see
The evils which the rest of us mus
j face.
His path of rectitude had brough
him wealth in goodly store,
So he had wondrous stacks of colo
locked in his old cash drawer.
And, sometimes-rather sparin gly-he
gave to help the poor,
And felt himself a paragon of
grace.
On Sundays at the service he used to
pass the hat,
And hear the sermon from the Amin
Corner where he sat,
And afterwards, outside the church,
hold honor with his chat,
Us humble folks with whom he was
a pet.
But once 1 got suspicious when he sold
horse to me
And told me that the beast was sound
and gentle as could be,
| paid hundred dollars for this ami
NAL that he
He had taken from poor man for
debt.
That horse had SPAWN, ringbone. col
ic and some other ills,
He bucked and kicked and BIT and
showed a lot of fancy frills,
And, when I couldn't cure him with the
veterinary's pills,
1 hit him with a pole ak on the
head.
And then it didn't seem quite right
the way that Christian man
Foreclosed the mortgage on my farm,
and sent the moving va1
To move me out and leave ne where
my poor career began,
To ask a neighbor for meal ard
bed.
And then, few years later, when he
suffers from the dread
Rheumatics that had laid hira low ard
brought him to his bed,
His heirs were quite impatient for the
news that he was dead,
And they handed him no ends OF
knocks and roasts.
But when his lawyer brought the Will
and read it to the heirs,
They succumbed with indignation, and
died right in their cha'~5,
This goodly man had lief: the cash,
which they thought would be
theirs,
To be spent in work among the
heathen hosts.

OMNIBUS CONDITIONS.
IN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES.

In the present critical situation IN
European politics France, Germany,
ENGLAND and Russia are all watching
each other to see which takes the first
step. Frances spirited response to
the proposed military ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of Germany has done more toward
inSuring peace today and war tomor-
row than any diplomatic move In the
recollection of any person now living.
On the other hand, Germany's lame
explanation as to the causes of the
enormous outlay and the increase OF
her peace army has deceived nobody.
1t is admitted by all who are &C.
quainted with the currents Of diplo-
macy in Europe, that the coming OF
Poincare has put more electricity into
the Franco-German situation than
there has been in many years. The
appointment Of Delcasse, who has an
avowed partisan policy as ambassador
to St. Petersburg, constituted nothing
less than a direct challenge 10 Ger
many, the answer to which has not
yet been given and which, when it
comes, may stagger the world with Its
suddenness.
Germany believes, that in view of
the momentous policy foreshadow-
ed by Delcasse's appointment, wiz, the
triple alliance consisting of France,
Russian and Great Britain directed
against the Germano-Itailan combina-
tion) discretion is at this moment her
best policy or alternatively Germany
may simply be observing highly
polite silence while finally giving q
careful look at her own offensive and
protective equipment.
That Germany, which insisted on the
dismissal of Delcasse in 1906 as a
result of the Moroccan imbroglio, Civ
ing the French the alternative O.
war, should now eat humble pic in tn
face Of this open defiance from the
new head of the republic at the pres
ent moment is ominous.
The policy of President Poincare i
susceptible Of only one explanation
namely. that whereas certain mea
sure of prudent passivity has ycharac
teriZed recent French governments
the present head of the republic mean
at least to try to reconGuer for France
some of her lost prestige in the con
cert with the powers as wal as Il
break the political paramountcy o
Berlin in Europe.
The situation at present depend
principally upon whether Germany
war party will let pass their undoub'
ed chance to force the emperor int
war.
Never within the past ten years, nj
even during the Dreyfus-Mcroccan CT
sis, has a Franco German war bee
nearer according! TO those who arr
scanning the European situation.

t. E. Campbell, general manager
OF the Haynes Copper Company,
who arrived from Jerome Tuesday
stated that the sinking of the main
working shaft from the 700 foot
level progresses satisfactorily, the
point to be reached being 100 feet,
when extensive exploitation follows.
The Haynes operations are at
tended with more than ordinary in
terest, from the fact of the adjoin-
ing property, the A & A. having
developed recently big copper and
gold ore bodies on the 400 foot
level and which determination is
engrossing very much attention in
mining circles of that field. The fact
OF the Haynes being less than 1000
feet distant from the A. & A. work
ings, is pleasing to Mr.. Campbell,
and will serve to stimulate develop
ment on the property of which he
has charge. 1t is generally the be-
lief that the A. & A has every in

planting of the big orchard, and the
reclamation of the lands will not be
carried out this year on the large
plan outlined above, but next year

NO TRESPASS BY

Skull Valley, Ariz.,

Editor OF the Journal Miner,
Dear Sir: Kindly correct the state
ment you made in the Journal Miner
some few weeks ago, when you pub
lished in your excellent paper that
one Guy Davis had went on the
Prescott National Forest reserve
and committed trespass by building
a house through ignorance of the
law. 1t is very true that Guy Davis
made application No 153 for a piece
OF land lying partly in what is To-
cally known as Boxelder pasture.
moved about twenty-five rods of
fence, disk plowed about twenty
five acres of land and got orders
from the forest service to immedi-
ately vacate said land. This all hap
pened in November, 1912 But on
or about the 9Th day of March,
1918, Guy Davis accompanied a
prospector to the Forest Reserve
and camped in the vicinity of the
land he had applied for The next
morning Thomas L. Mercer came
along and ordered Guy Davis to
get off of the Reservation but told
the prospector that he could stay
as long as he wanted to.
1t is known fact that Guy Davis
has done nothing on the land he
made applications for or other lands
on the Prescott National Forest Re-
serve since the first day of Deem
Der, 1912. This l know from the
fact that Guy Davis has been work
ing every day that was fit to work.
Sundays not excepted ever since we
commenced to gather our crops last
fall, and | know of my knowledge
that Guy Davis has not been tres
passing on the Prescott National
Reserve. l have yet to hear of any
man getting a homestead on this
end Of the Forest Reserve without
having more or less trouble with the
Forest Service. Thanking you in
advance for making a correct state
ment facts in this matter, l am
most respectfully your,
JAS. DAVIS.

Arizona hotel, destined to be the
finest hostelry between Chicago and
the coast Seven stories in height,

ing approximately S450,0OO, the pro-
jected hotel will be constructed for

emit 1t will long rank in the fore
ground of the hotels OF the western
states.
With E. S. Kennedy, one of the
best known hotel men of Chicago,
and Judge E w. Wells of Prescott,
as the principal promoters and stock
holders, there is being organized a
corporation of Arizona capitalists,
who will first capitalize at $350,000
and later increase this to $4,000 for
the express purpose of carrying out
every detail of the projected struct-
ure. The final word was given at a
meeting held Tuesday evening OF
the stockholders and Mr. Kennedy
will leave today for Chicago to so
arrange his business affairs that he
may hereafter be classed as a citizen
of Arizona with interests identical
with those of dozens of other public
spirited residents of the southwest.
According to the plans drafted by
George H. Gallagher and accepted
by the stockholders, the hotel will
be of reinforced concrete, rising sew
en- stories above the basement The
first story will be of concrete veneer
ed with granite and marble Sur
mounting the entire structure will
be a roof garden the area of which
will be identical with that covered
by the entire structure.
Each of the $50 rooms will be
piped with circulating, filtered ice
water, each having bath, sixty of
which will be of the shower variety.
There will be single rooms, two,
three and four room suites, all elab-
orately furnished, the accommoda-
tions being furnished at figures rang
ing from one dollar per day to as
high as twenty dollars per day for
the larger suites.
Work will be commenced about
April Is. Upon that date Mr.. Ken
nedy expects to return to Phoenix

S. F. EXPOSITION
APPROVED BY CHAMBER

At the regular meeting of the

night, many measures for the up
building of Yavapai County and Ari-

of the most important was the I'M

Whereas, we are of the firm
opinion that the State of Arizona
should be represented at said ex-
position, in order that it might en-
phasize the kindly and neighborly
feeling existing between the States
of Arizona and California and also
because Arizona will reap the bene-
fits which must accrue from an ex-
hibit of her varied resources and
of her climatix advan-
tages;

MINING OUTLOOK
DECIDEDLY BRIGHT
(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

According to statements made yes
terday by Deputy Assessor E. w.
Stephens who returned after a
month OF official duties in the field
the mining situation in the southern
and western parts of this county is
decidedly encouraging and more ac-
tivity is noticeable than at the same
time last year.
The Monte Christie mine near
Constellation of Ezra w. Thayer,
OF Phoenix, continues to produce
heavily in silver, and recently ore
of fabulous value was developed in
the lower level The tonnage that
has accumulated from past years, re-
mains on the dumps, and is valued
at many thousands of dollars. This
property is occasioning more COM
ment i'll that part of the county than
any other mining proposition, and
since the recent discovery, but lit
tie else i'll the mining line is discus
sed. The owner gives no intimation
whatever of what disposition is to
be made of the yield, but continues
to operate practically and steadily.
The Monarch in the same district,
is working quite a force of miners,
and the mill is to begin dropping
stamps in few days.
Along Copper Creek the Bagdad
Company continues churn drilling
a large section OF ground, and while
nothing of reliable nature is per-
mitted to be given the public of re-
suits accomplished, the energetic
and large line of exploration being
followed out, leads to the belief that
important developments for the nearl
future are to be expected in the
practical mining of this vast copper
field.
At the Interior Camp in Black
Rock district, F. y. O'Brien is re-
viving that property, and a large
line OF exploitation has been de-
cided upon by the stockholders. It'll
is believed that operations will be
under Roadway on a permanent bas-
is inside OF the next TWO weeks.
While at the Octave it was learned
that advices from the eastern office
were that resumption had been au-
-horized and within thirty days the
camp would be rehabilitated and
leep development inaugurated.
Strong intimations of the Con-
yress resuming in a short time were
also given out, and certain move
nents indicated that the old gold
