WHY NOT IN ARIZONA?


ments, the faculty of the University
of Colorado, at Golden has decided
to establish a short course for pros
pectors. This action is taken in
order to promote the more efficient
and scientific prospecting Of Colorado
mineral lands. The course of train
ing will last only three days but
much may be CLEANED in that time.
1t is a laudable innovation, and one
that should be amplified.
Nowadays before starting on a pros
pecting trip into the mountains, it
would not be amiss for the seeker of
riches to have been previously grad
uated in geology, mineralogy, chem
a few other, dry but useful, studies.
Thus equipped, he should be able to
cope with the most formidable prob
lens that, like snarling grizzly bears,
confront him and strive to bar his
progress toward wealth. Mineral
combinations, geological formations,
complicated methods of ore treatment
market values, assays, and much mis-
callaneous information should crowd
his Uranium to its utmost capacity.
Unlike the old-time prospector, he
seeks for something besides silver
ct n 1iffnrn11t
minerals, which were unknown or ig-
nored in the early days, now have
commercial value that makes them
we'll worth seeking; and ores that
were formerly considered too refrac-
tory or low grade to merit attention
are worked at a profit in this era of
manipulation.
The old-time prospector did not
need large amount of technical
knowledge to meet the demands of
his calling, because he lived during
a period when the mining industry
was conducted along decidedly prim
tive lines, as compared with
the present day activities. This rug
ged pioneer scOrned all metals baser
than gold and silver. He sought only
the best that the treasure vaults of
the Rockies afforded, and he did not
seek in vain. The West owes much
to his enterprise and defiant perse-
verance. He discovered and deveI-
oped mines that became famous the
world over as heavy producers. His
achievements attracted settlers, and.
gave his part of the country the
first real boom as a desirable loca-
tion for the profitable investment of
capital and the establishment of
homes.
A few old-timers still survive to
continue their quest for treasure AL
though they have changed with
changing conditions and have acquir-
ed a more modern knowledge of min
ing, they usually prefer to seek for
the more alluring gold and silver, as
in former times.-Ed Daily Mining

declined to assume original jurisdc-
ton in matters relating to the en-
forcement of the prohibition amend
ment. The court will consider them
only on appeal in the regular course.
Information for breach Of the law
must be filed in the regular way be-
fore a Justice OF the peace, and fol
lowing his decision appeals will lie
in regular course, first to the superio
court OF the county i'm which the con-
viction is had, and then, if desired,
to the supreme court of the state
This was definitely decided in the
matter of the application of Louis
Gherna OF Tucson for writ OF ha-
beas corpus. In his petition he sets
forth:
/. That he is now imprisoned In
the county Jail OF the county of Pima
and that such imprisonment followed
the following matters and things, to-
wit
That the petitioner had been en-
gagged in the selling OF intoxicating
liquors at retail and is possessed Of
stock of wines and liquors aggre-
eating $4,000 i'm value; that he was
and is the owner of unexpired United
States, state, county and city licenses
and that his business was at the time
of the issuance of suoh licenses a
recognized valid business under the
laws of the state of Arizona"
The petition then recites the pass
age of the constitutional amendment
and the putting of the same into
force by proclamation of the COVER
nor ON Dec. Is.
2. That the said amendment is not
self-executing but requires the pass
age of appropriate legislation to put
it into effect That the legislature
of the state has not passed such leg
islation nor can it do SO until it as
sembles ON the second Monday in
January, and that the petitioner has
therefore been wrongfully arrested.
g. That the amendment, if self
executing, is in violation of the con-
stitution of the United states for the
following reasons:
a. That it abridges the privileges
and immunities of petitioner and de-
prives him of liberty and property
without due process of law and de-
mics to him the equal protection OF
the laws i'm that it prohibits him FROM
selling or disposing of his stock and
provides no compensation for such
loss.
b. That it prevents the use of al
coholic liquors for sacramental and
medicinal purposes.
C.. That it is in violation Of section
8, article l, of the constitution OF the
United States, (which provides that
the congress shall have power to reg
ulate commerce with foreign nations
and among the several states, etc"
The petition was filed by John S.
Wright and Eugene S. Ives as attor-
neys for the petitioner. The grant
of the writ of habeas corpus was Op-
posed by Attorney General Wiley E.
