least a dozen other men waiting for

of a position is not over-particular
what work he tackles, but 1t was GER

on the eve Of his vacation with exact

wanted to spend two glorious weeks
at Lorna's home town. With his pres
ent capital he could spend but one.
He felt willing to do almost any
thing for twenty-five dollars. Conse-
quently, when he saw in an advertise

afraid Of lions, was wanted at the

away as fast as he could go. He had
an idea that he could raise that twen-

Lorna.

Bouse Coming to the Front.

A representative of The Post had
occasion to visit Bouse and vicinity
the past week and found that the
people of that community were most
optimis istic over the future of their
town, and they have most excellent
reasons therefor. AT no time in its
history has Bouse witnessed a greater
revival in mining since the early
boom days few years ago. A visdt
to the Bullion mine was an eye-open-
er. AT this property large force of
men is working on the 300-foot level,
where big body of sulphide copper
ore has been opened UP. The mine Is
under the management of Charles
Allison, and from all indications is
going to make a producer within the
next few months. Close to the Bull
lion is located the Dutchman prop
erty, which was sensational gold
producer a few years ago. This mine
has fallen into new hands, and ON
September /, active work will be re-
sumed.
Several other properties Of great
merit are being developed around
Bouse, and the early fall and winter
will witness great activity in that
part of Yuma county.

Senator Garvin in Town.

Senator James s. Garvin of Yuma
arrived in Parker Thursday after
noon and before leaving he managed
to see about every democratic voter
in town in the interest of his candir
dacy for supervisor. Senator Garvin,
in speaking of the road situation in
northern Yuma county, stated that
he proposed, if elected to the office,
ITO see that this end of the county
should receive it's just and fair pro-
portion of the road fund. He believes
that the road funds should be appor-
toned to the various roads of the
county for their maintenance, and
that the funds thus set aside for
particular highways should not be
diverted or expended on other roads
This plan would meet with popular
approval in the northern part of the
county, and this paper hopes to see
the day when such plan will be adopt
ed. The Senator feels confident of
being nominated at the Forthcoming
democratic primaries, and if elected
he promises to give everybody

representative from this county, and
he villa receive handsome vote In
