Duty,

One sound always comes to the ear
that is open; it is the steady drum
beat Of Duty, No music In 1t. per.
haps-only dry rub-a-dub All, but
that steady beat marks the time of the
whole orchestra OF earth and heaven!
1t says to you: DO your work--do
the duty nearest you!" Keep step to
that drum-beat, and the dullest march
is taking you home.-George s. Mer.

Gives Election Results.

Gives Election Results.
There is no question but that the
news from Special Envoy Lind gives
precisely the result Of the elections
in Mexico which the President said
last Thursday he would await before
taking any action.
Naval and State Department Off
cials know and realize that If Huerta
should provoke conflict at Vera
Cruz or Tampico the guns Of the
American feet would not be silent
very long, and that marines would
be landed for the further protection
Of American citizens in Mexico.
The State Department has no
knowledge of the report, it says, that
France has been appealed to by
Huerta to mediate between the Unit
cd States and him, Some officials
say that the stories could not be true
because the President has stated
publicly that he will not recognize
Huerta nor the result of any Of his
| elections. The French Ambassador
has called at the State Department
twice within the past twenty-four
hours, but it is understood that he
Ia interested rather in the United
States sending the Annapolis tc

Lower California, as demanded by
| France
| Washington is on the tiptoes OF
| expectation for some announcement
the President may have to make
tomorrow and expects it in view of
the elaborate dispatches received to-
day from Charge d'Affairs O'Shaugh-
messy.
It is well known that the promo
'itions of the Carranzistas through
Henry A. upper and by telegram
to the State Department from the
2arranzistas' headquarters in Mex
co that the embargo be raised has
been read by the President and the
| Secretary of State.
The Carranzistas, however, It was
pointed out today, have by their atti.
tude of nonintervention and their
| opposition to it put stumblinp
block in the way of Joint interven.
ton in Mexico by the militaryforces
across the Rio Grand. Ii is nlain
70 the State Department and to the
White House that II the Carran-
zistas carry out their opposition To
Intervention they would join with
he federals and oppose the march
Of the United States army.
The general expectation is that
the President will advise Congress
Of the facts as he knows them and
by communicating with Congress- bo
will soon know whether it will nutb-
orize him to proceed further than
the naval demonstration.

clined to comment on the statements

United Verde Extension

On the United Verde Extension the work of clearing up the workings on the 500 foot level still continues. Ac- tive development has been delayed pending the arrival of the compressor There has also probably been some intended delay for the purpose of acquiring the Jerome Verde Copper company and also the Florence claim Of which Senator Clark owns one third interest These interests have now been secured. While the old company was working the property it was reported that more than one ore body had been discovered in the ground. The present company will surely know whether there are any ore bodies within the confines of the claims.
 It is authoritatlvely reported that the Midnight Test mine on Groom Creek. Yavapai county. is to be Op- erated again at an early date This property is a meritoriOus one and has ore in it's workings. The main shaft is down 45O feet. We would welcome a revival of mining op- eratiOns on Groom Creek. The To- cality is an old one and has produced rich ore There are some very prom ising properties that have lain idle for years.

Arizona, the Mining State

Nevada newspapers in VainglOriOus way boast of producing $32,0OO.OO0 m mineral wealth during the year 1912. Arizona is plodding along patiently with a S65,00O,OO0 record production during the same year.
 Nevada is growing because she nas about reached the maximum produc- tion possible. from her limited mineral resources As that state has been prospected thoroughly by an army of wideawake men, who were attracted to the section by the great Goldfield boom in 1905.
 With Arizona, conditions are differ ent Although her mineral production is much greater than that of any other mineral producing state. we all know that Arizona's mineral development has not yet begun. Consequently. sur face showing that would cause real boom in other mining states, pass unnOticed here. For instance, last year witnessed the advent ot three great producing mines, namely, the Copper Basin near Prescott. the three R's at Patagonia, and the Great Magma of Superior. All these prop critics are now worth millions. and will cause d large increase Tn Arl- zona's next years productions.
 We know of a number of new prop critics that will in the near future help swell the lead in mineral produc- tion of Arizona over the neighborng mining states For instance, the Ajax, Reymert, Vulture. London Arizona ana dozens of other promising shoWlnSs are now rapidly being developed into mines. With the old properties ln- creasing their output and new mines being constantly opened up Tn almost every county of the state. Arizona will soon be known as THE MINING STATE of the union.

 He also stated that the Arizona Ajax property is being equipped with q new plant and sinking will soon be 1 in order. The plant consists of 15-
 horse power gasoline hoist, compressor and Cameron sinking pump Great re- suits are looked for from this prop l erty by all the engineers who have | seen the present shaft. as the Veir 1 is twenty-two feet wide and com l pletely filled filth $12.O0 lead, zinc and

Pitchblende is the principal source of radium. The radium is extracted in the form of bromide The cost of radium bromide was lately given at SS0.000 per gram. Madame Curie certainly gave wonderful product to the world when she discovered radium. Radium preparations in 1911 by the Austrian Radium company. ac- cording to official reports. amounted to ALAG grams. containing 2,647 grams of pure radium chloride, valued by the makers at S214, 100000.

 that the best course would be d strict. rigid. three-year course with little electric work in the fourth year.
