A. L. Terry, Cerk of the Board of Su- pervisors, Complies Report that Illustrates GreenIee's Outstand- ing Indebtedness, Expenditures Property Owned, Etc., for the
 Year 1913

An interesting booklet is that lately Board of Supervisors, showing as it does the financial condition of Green lee county for the year 1913. A volume of information affecting every phase of the county's administration, coming under the direction of the Su- pervisors, is there illustrated.

 .O~A for some time in Aegal suspension, these taxes amounting to $38,450. .29, brings the taxes unco1Iected to an appreciably smaller amount.

LARGE COPPERVE|NS D|SCOVEREDAT THE
 HEATING MINES
Feet in Width is Found at Mines of Heating Copper Syndicate-Many Smaller and Richer Discoveries Director Will Arrive Here From England Next Week
 -Ores Being Rapidly
 Blocked.

Authentic information reaching Cliff ton this week is that an important find of copper veins has been made at the mines, located near Metcalf, of the Heating Copper Syndicate, the head offices of which are in London. A vein of copper bearing ores eighteen feet, and at which depth the perma- the extent of more than five per cent, has lately been uncovered. And this is in addition to many smaller and richer veins that are found in num- bers that justify the belief that these properties are soon to become among the most productive of all the copper mines in the Copper Mountain dis trict.
 The large vein was uncovered at depth of about two hundred and fifty feet, and at which depth the perman- ent copper bearing ores is found to be. Two shafts, each of the distance of slightly more than two hundred and fifty feet have been sunk, and from these shafts laterals are run at different points. Also the shafts are connected at different points in the operations which have for their ob- ject the blocking of ores. At present the aim of the management is ore blocking, in preparation for excava- tion and reduction.
 H. E. Bennett, of London, Eng land, and one of the directors of the syndicate, will arrive in Clifton next week, upon an inspection tour, and his conferences with the forces of the syndicate here are expected to result in the forming of plans looking to- ward the extraction of ores.
 The Heating people own seven claims all of which are adjoining. The mines are adjacent to the Coronado mines of the Arizona Copper company, and are about two miles from the town of Metcalf.

MUSICAL LEvENTW|LL BE DAVID HOLGU|N
 BENEFIT
At Princess Theatre Will be Staged Enjoyable Entertainment in Music for Benefit of David Holguin, CIifton's Talented VioIinist, Who is to Pursue Studies in
 Europe.
tCopyright>

A splendid musical entertainment, for the benefit of young David Hol- guin, Clifton's talented violinist, is to be staged at the Princess on the even ing of February 12 by Adams orches- tra. That this talented young ar tist might complete at Brussels, where he formerly attended, his education in music, the benefit is to be given. :.
 It is safe to state that no more en- joyable affair in musical entertain. ments will be held in Clifton this season than will be this benefit per- formance, for there will gather the most talented, both in song and in- strumental music, of Clifton's perform CTS, with the participation of per haps a number from Morenci.
 Adams orchestra, while sponsor for the occasion, and contributing numer- ous selections, will be assisted by the Clifton quartette, the mebership of which is: F. L. Sanders, Jno. Stirratt, Prof. Schimerka, and A. Ferber The renditions. of this con- pany alone should justify a gratifying attendance. Arrangements are mak- ing for the securing of the services of the most talented of the lady singers of both Clifton and Morenci.
 The skill of Adams orchestra is known so well in Clifton, where it has performed for more than six years, at that time it being organized by its manager, J. L. Adams, that the at tendance will anticipate one of the most enjoyable musical entertain ments of the season. The member ship of the organization at present is of seven performers, the names of whom, and their respective instru- ments, are as follows: J. L. Adams, violin; David Holguin, violin; Prof. Bond, piano; R. E. Colburn, cornet; bore, drums; L. R. Lindley, trom- bone. Each of these members is an artist in the command of his individu- al instrument, and all participate in a harmonious whole that has gained for the organization a fame that is more than local, the appreciation of the people of Clifton for the musical uplift due to the renditions of the being in due regard for the work of the orchestra.
 Among the enjoyable features of the evening will be the violin solos of David Holguin, who is conceded by all his hearers to possess a mastery of his instrument that is wonderful. A songster of the violin is the verdict of his admirers, his skill being such that with his instrument he expresses his very thoughts, and appealing to all, whether advanced to no in musi- cal knowledge, with a power that in-

stantly places his hearers in his com munion.
 Adams orchestra, with all of Cliff ton, feel well in their assistance to their young protege, and the benefit of hte attendance at the performance on February 12, is expected to consist the largest audiences ever assembled at a performance of like character
 Young Holguin has before studied at Brussels, remaining for some time there, and wishes there to complete the instruction under the European masters begun. The assistance to be gained from the proceeds of the com ing entertainment, with returns from other sources, is expected to be of sufficient amount to pay the way of the young artist during his stay at Brussels to which center he wishes to visit early in the coming Spring.

CITY ELECTION LAWS OCCUPY ATTENTION
 IF VOTERS
City Council at Next Meeting, on Eve hing of February 2, Will Discuss Questions Concerning Coming City Elections as Guided by Laws of State-Offices For merIy Appointive Become
 Elective.

1 The question of the various laws of the state in their relation to the man. ner and conduct of city elections, both primary and final, are now occupying ! the attention of the people and coun- cilmen of Clifton. Various points re- lating to the method and procedure of city elections are not exactly clear in the minds of the city administration officials, and they accordingly have re- quested City Attorney Wall to become familiar with this question, that he might present his findings to the coun- Gil at the next meeting, which will be on the evening of Monday, February l2.
 , It has been learned that the coun- cil will be guided, in regard to the holding of this years elections, by the enactments, concerning this sub- the year 1912, with the amendments passed in 1913. A copy of this code has not yet arrived, although it is ex- pected to come before the mentioned meeting of the council. Yet approxi- mately the dates of holding both pri- mary and general elections can be found. The primary election will be held at some date late in the month Iof April of this year, while the gen. ieral and final election will be held on May 25.
 Also the arrival of the code is awaited with interest in regard to other questions concerning the city's administration. Among these are the questions relating to the date of open ing and closing the registration books by the city clerk, the question of the salaries to be granted to the city clerk, the city marshal, and the city's street commissioner. These offices, formerly appointive on the part of the council, are elective, and all men to hold these offices for the coming voters at the election held late in May. Another change in this regard is that six councilmen, rather than the four councilmen formerly requir- ed by the law of the state, will be elected These councilmen, as before, will receive no salary. The amount of the salary of the three elective off ces mentioned is not known, and neither is it known as to whose au- thority it will be to name the amount.
 The law of the state concerning the necessity of candidates placing his name upon the ballots to be used in the primary elections is that he will be compelled to do so, else announce himself independently after the prf- maries, and have his name placed

Shooting Privileges

Duck shooting in September, in
stead of October /, may be enjoyed
by Nevada sportsmen, from present
indications. A decision of United
States District Judge Trieber of Ar
kansas, declaring the migratory bird
law of March 4, 1913, unconstitutional,
has been received.
The federal law in the zone in which
Nevada is situated provides for an
open season between October | and
January Is, while the Nevada Law
provides for an open season between
September Is and March Is.
1t is said steps have been taken by
federal attorneys in Arkansas to ap-
peal the Shaver case to the United
States Supreme court. Harry I.
Shaver was indicted for violation OF
the migratory bird act and demurred
to the indictment. His remurrer was
sustained on May Is, 1914. A petit
ton on the part of the government
for rehearing resulted in further
confirmation of the opinion first ex-
pressed by Judge Trieber that the
migratory bird act is unconstitutional.
