STUDENTS STRIVE FOR
MEDAL HONORS
(From FRIDAYS Dailv.1

\ great deal Of interest and some
competition is being manifested by
the students OF the Prescott High
School over the 1913 Scholarship
medals which will be awarded to
the students acquiring the highest
marks in each OF the four classes.
at the end OF the school year.
In addition to the medal a cash
prize OF S. will be awarded to the
student who acquires the highest
standing OF the whole school.
The medals are of gold and are
moulded in very beautiful designs,
all four OF which are emblems OF
knowledge. The medals may be
seen in the window OF O. \. Hesla
& Co. They will be awarded some
time during Commencement week,
probably at the Commencement ex-
ercises.
The Class OF 1913 is the first
from the Prescott High
School to have thought of any
method of raising the standard OF
scholarship among the students OF
that institution. The class believes
that medal. which is something
to be proud OF all through life.
would be appreciated more than
cash prize. which it first thought Of
giving.
In awarding these medals the
lass hoped to secure competition
among the student body and thus
place the standard of scholarship
n their alma Mater" upon a high
er level. The class of 1913 hopes
hat the future graduating classes
nay follow their precedent in Civ
"g scholarship rewards, or that
hey may find better scheme for
procuring the same result.

HAS FIRE ALARM
GONE UPON A STRIKE?



That Prescott is The most phcnom-
email city in the Southwest from
the standpoint of immunity from
fire is evidenced by the remarkable
record which has been established
during the past six years. Indica-
tons at the present time point to
the establishment of 4 new record.
for not since the start OF the year
has the fire alarm sounded. In
fact the last call was sent in about
four months ago.
When the great conflagration
wiped out a goodly portion OF Pres
colts ramshackle structures a great
er protection against fire in the
future was assured The buildings
which replace the ashes were not only
ol different material but
placed in such position as 10 avert
another similar catastrophe.
Since then the annual fire dam
age has not averaged 5000. a really
great record in a town assessed at
100000 in property valuations.
The short and quick runs regis
tered by the fire department in re-
Spouse to alarms have resulted in
catching the blaze at the start. Re-
CARELESS of how dormant may be

COMMERCIAL IS TO
INSTALL A PLANT
fFrom Fridays DailyD

- ''AiA 10 ADaHAiN -
Reports are in circulation that the
Commercial Mining Company is to
install 4 big teaching plant at its
holdings in Copper Basin, that low
grade ores may be economically
treated on the ground and the heavy
expense incidental to freighting by
teams 10 the railroad at Skull val
ley be thusobviated.
The type OF a plant as yet has
not been decided upon. but it is
believed that the Douglas process
will be introduced. DR.. James Doug
las. president of the Copper Queen
is the inventor OF system OF leach
ing that is universally known to
be 4 success. and which has been
applied to ores OF various local.
ties in the southwest. to advantage.
The capacity Of the plant was not
learned. but that it will be at least
capable of treating daily 100 tons Of
the low grade ores ready for ex-
traction IS certain.
Many times during the past two
vrars Major Picl;rcll, the represen-
'ative OF the Commercial III this
field has mentioned the fact that
development has exposed an i'm
mense tonnage of low grade COP
Der ores in the various workings,
bu' which to handle for market, is
prob b;t;vc owi"g to the cost OF
freighting out by teams to the rail
road, and the repeated handling OF
the tonnage by hand.
During the past two years the
Commercial has shipped to Douglas
and Hayden smelters many thous-
and tons OF ore. some OF which
was Of good grade, but in the main
low percentage. In recent months
the United Verde smelter has been
consuming on ar average about
fifty tons per day, from which can
be inferred the productive ability OF
this property as It is being develop
ed.
The purpose to place 4 teaching
plant on the Commercial is quite
an interesting proposition for the
reason that about a quarter of
century age a similar institution
was running on that property, when
the principle of treating copper ores
by this method was in its infancy.
1t is believed the Douglas invention
will solve a very important matter
affecting the future of Copper Ba-
sin mines.

The Kay Copper Company, it is
also reported, will place auto trucks
on the road from their camp to
Turkey to haul out the ores and
take in supplies.
The new road when opened will
give 4 distance to the north of six

UJACK CASE TO
U. S. SUPREME COURT
(From Saturdays Daily.1


That the last OF the John Ujack
test case has not been heard of is
apparent from the announcement
that the attorneys for the Consoli-
dated Arizona Smelling Company
would appeal from the decision OF
the Supreme Court to the highest
tribunal in the land. The decision
OF the Supreme Court affirming the
verdict of the lower court in grant
ing Ujack a verdict for 5000 dam
ages was handed down several days
ago after a deliberation of nearly
five months.
The ruling OF the Supreme Court
is open and to the point. fact
which convinces Attorney Amber
son that the United States Supreme
Court will deliver a speedy ruling
which will reverse the findings of
the lower courts.
Ujack was injured while employ
ed by the defendant corporation.
The defendants in appealing the
case did not deny the injury but main
tanned that the limit OF damages
was found and clearly defined in
the Compulsory Compensation Act
The Supreme Court. however, rul-
ed that Ujack was within the legal
letter of the law when he chose one
of three courses open to him to
procure damages.
