NOVEL METHOD OF
 TESTING THE AMENDMENT
Froni Sundays Daily)

Lawyers in Prescott, as well as al! over the state, are watching with great deal of interest the proceedings instituted at Tucson for testing the self-cxecuting principle involved in the prohibition amendment.
 This case had for its basis the ar rest of saloon man named Ghcrna who sold a quantity of liquor after the hour when the amendment was sup posed to go into effect. Attorney Wright attempted 10 have this case go direct to the Supreme court, but that tribunal refused to handle it un- til it had taken its course through the Superior court. The judge of the Superior court refused to grant a writ of habeas corpus in favor of the prisoner and the case was appealed to the Supreme court. The other day when an effort was made to have it taken up immediately by the Su- premc court Attorney General Wiley Jones refused, saying it must take its regular course on the calendar. The temperance side of the issue is as anxious as the others for q decision on the much mootcd point, and the holding up of the case mentioned has caused Eugene $. Ives to start all en- tircly new and rather novel proceed ing. This was done by the filing ot an application by former Tucson saloon keeper named C. J. Cunning ham for a writ Of mandamus to com pei the Tucson city clerk to issue him a license for conducting saloon. The hearing in this latter case was in progress all day yesterday in Tue son. and it is probable a decision will be had the first days of this week.

GEORGE MITCHELL ORGANIZING A
 SYNDICATE
(From Sundays Dally)


 When George Mitchell visited Pres colt yesterday from Jerome the news of what Is known as the Mitchell Syndicate having consolidated a number of valuable and well known mining properties at Jerome and the forming of a company for the de- velopment of the same was confirm ed. The properties which form the principal basis of this new venture are those i'll the Verde district which have been handled by James Lay man for the past four or more months, development having proven that they are extremely rich in cop per, gold and silver,
 Mir. Layman's work consisted most ly of Investigating the slate and schlst zones of the properties for distance of a little less than one thousand feet, during the progress of which work several large ore bodies were encountered. The properties consist of about five hundred acres of min cral ground, nearly onc-half of which is patented. The new syndicate will soon be incorporated under the name Verde Union Mining Company. As soon as this is done vigorous opera tions will commence, it being the ob- ject to sink deeper the shafts which have already made wonderfully good showing in sulphidc ores.
 AIr. Mitchell is no tyro at the min ing business. He has had charge of several large propositions and built some of the large smelters of the country, among which may be men toned the Cananea, in Sonora, Mex ico. Only few years ago inc had charge of the United Verde shelter. He is thoroughly posted as to the value and extent of ores in the dis trict where he proposes to operate, and says that the properties now be- ing consolidated contain values of the same quality and in as great quan- titles as the United Verde and Little Daisy mines, being on the same north fault with the Little Daisy and south fault with the United Verde proper.
 The deals which he is consummat- ing arc among the most important made ill Yavapai county for many months and mean much in connection with the mining industry of Northern Arizona.
 Ready For Paying Work
 Work of drifting on the bottom level of the Little Daisy will be com mcnccd in the course of the next week or ten days, according to re- ports from Jerome reaching this city yesterday. A double shift of work men have been employed for some time installing the pumps in this mine, a task which IS now nearly completed. Those in charge declare that it will be but a short time until paying operating work will be in progress.
