A NEW INDUSTRY TO BE
 INTRODUCED IN ARIZONA

Southern Arizona has been chosen by a large company for the conduct ing of the most important agricultur- al experiment in a decade. It is the attempt to grow guayule, or the rub Der shrub by cultivation. The agri- cultural product corporation is sub- sidiary of the International Rubber Company, which has been operating very extensively in the guayale rub Der country of Mexico. The company has purchased 9,2O0 acres of land about thirty miles south of Tucson for the experiment. A concrete water tank with capacity of 5O,- OOO gallons for domestic uses and fire protection has been completed, and 200 acres of ground has been cleared and good roads have been built to all parts of the ranch.
 If the growing of the guayale is successful, it is the intention of the company to build a large mill on the ground for extraction of rubber.

leave to the Indians the grazing lands in the valleys which they now occu, py.
 Frank Thackery, Indian agent at ,Sacaton, and father of the reserva- ton, presented a proposition to to twelve miles in length and exteAd- eliminate a strip varyIus rom six ;1g across the reservation from Silver bell to Gunsight to enable the county to construct road and to avoid cut ing the county in two. The strip eliminates 100000 acres out of g.. 125,000
 President Andrew Martin stated to the government authorities that the proposition to eliminate strip across the reserve was not satisfac. tory to the Chamber of Commerce.
 He asked MT. Thackery for the report of Inspector Belcher, on Secre- tary Lanes staff, who came out here to inspect the reservation, but MT. Thackery said that while he had a copy it was confidential report.
 It is understood that the report of Inspector Belcher, who interviewed about eighty people on both sides, recommends the elimination of a greater part or all of the reserve
 MT. Thackery also proposed that the reservation be preserved intact and that the Indians be made citi- zens as fast as possible so that they will pay taxes, but this did not meet with the approval of the Chamber of Commerce.

MINING NOTES

September has been another excel lent month for local operators. The Socorro Mining & Milling Co.'S prop critics produced 33O0 lbs. of gold and silver bullion and the Mogollon Mines Co.,, operating the Last Chance mine, shipped 27OO lbs. for the same period, total of tons of precious metal for the 30 days In addition, each com pany shipped to smelter at Ell Paso high-grade concentrates in value about equal to the bullion product, later go- ing direct to mint.
 The companies also met with sub- stantial encouragement, particularly the Oaks Co.,, in the continued inn provement of ore body recently open. ed on the Queen vein on Clifton prop erty, from which regular shipments to custom mill by burro were main tained. Another young mine, the Eu reka, continues to sack high-grade ore for shipment to smelter, while results of work on a number of claims by their prospector owners lends energy to the task and faith in the outcome that is unsurpassed in any other line of pursuit.
 Supt E. l.. Perkins of Mogollon Mines Co. is conducting series oi Notation experiments on local ores and the results thus far justify the be lief that a greatly simplified treatment with a substantial reduction of costs may be evolved. The Mogollon dist rict has a recorded production of up wards of $15, 100000 to date, largely | from an average grade of SIP ore. This activity has extended over a per iod of many years and with compara lively high costs necessitating more 1 or less selective mining methods, th' camp has an immense tonnage of low

PHOENIX, Oct. 11-Believing his duties at the capitol to be of para mount importance, Chief Justice Hen " D. Ross has declined an invitation | to accompany the democratic state tcandidates on their campaign tour and has elected to remain in Phoe- tnix lon the e<job."
 Asked recently to give his reasons why he does not wish to actively enter the campaign, Judge Ross is- sued the following statement:
 q am not going to make a campaign for two reasons for the office of judge of the supreme court:
 Time Not His Own.
 First My time is not my own. It belongs to the people. I am their servant and as long as their business demands my attention I cannot, and do my duty, take it myself or use it for any other purpose There are eases pending in the supreme court ready for argument and submission. It is more important to private litigants and the public that these cases be taken up and decided, than that I should be running around over the state shaking hands and making poli- tical speeches in the interest of my reelection The judges duties are personal. He cannot act through dep uties or agents as executive and min isterial officers may. No one can act for the judge Therefore if he is not on the job the public interest must be neglected. From now until cleo tion I shall be at my office discharg- ing it's duties to the best of my abili ty.
 Dignity of the Office
 Second. Since statehood, until now no candidate for judge of the su- preme court has actively participated in reelection campaigns. The re- publican and democratic candidates have uniformly refused to campaign with their party associates, and this without any previous understanding but out of a sense of propriety of keeping the judiciary out of political controversy. Such high class lawyers as Judge Kent, Judge Doe, Thos. Arm strong and Walter Bennitt have been honored by the republican party as its nominees and none of them ever actively participated in the party campaigns I had hoped this settled but unwritten law would continue the rule in Arizona and so far as I am concerned it shall be observed. To the extent that it lies in my power, am ready, willing and anxious to keep the election of our judges out of poli- tics"

CT grade ores in reserve. With the reduced costs of operation that will follow hydro-electric installations and the eventual adaptation of oil flota- tion treatment now in prospect, these ores should yield quite as much profit as the higher grades have in the past.
 A recent report from J. w. Ster- ling, chief engineer of the Geronimo Mining company, states that excellent progress is being made in the develop ment of the property. MT. Sterling states that the first drill which bored for water has struck a big flow at depth of 56 feet, which will be ample for development and domestic pur- poses. The second drill has reached depth of 25 feet, and according to MT. Sterling is in ore all the way. The ore is being sampled every five feet, and the engineer states that it is holding the surface assays which is all that is necessary to make the propo- sition paying one.
 A first class auto road has been com pleted to the property from the town of Geronimo on the Arizona Eastern railway, and the company has a car at the station to meet all trains and convey visitors to the property. ID J. Shea, president of the con- pany, leaves in a few days for Los Angeles, on business connected with the proposed spur to the property from the Arizona Eastern. From Los SAngeles he will go direct to New York Fl r the purpose of placing the stock on Ee market.

Mrs. Bates was shot and killed by the deputies, it is alleged, when an autom obile in which she and her hus- band were riding was mistaken for a machine in which persons supposed to have been connected with a $2000 iewelry robbery at Pastime park, were thought to have been escaping. The case was transferred from Tucson on charge of venue.
 Although it has been reported that the defendants would not ask for sep arate trials of their cases, attorneys severance might be requested to- morrow. If this is granted, and the men are tried separately, it is prob able that the trial may be dragged out indefinitely.
 An array of legal talent for both the state and the defense was on hand at the opening of the superior court here this morning and numer- ous expert witnesses were present to testify. In order to ascertain which one of the deputies fired the shot which killed Mrs. Bates, it is rumor- ed that numerous tests have been made with the firearms carried by the deputies on Ihe night c' the tragedy. Shots re ere fired trh Il tacn of the pistols into bags of sand, ac- cording to reports of the tests made and the riaing of the bullets and other details examined minutely. 1t is anticipated that the state will sub init definite evidence to show which Of the men fired the fatal shot when the case cones to trial.

UNFAVORABLE LAWS (Salt Lake Mining Review)

Every man of wealth has his enc mics, as has every successful man in any line of business. No matter how square he has been, nor how honestly he has made his money or attained his success, he has many detractors- men and women whom he has never even seen, much less wronged. Ana all of them will do him an injury when the opportunity is presented, if it can be done with safety to themselves. The reason can be summed up in one word-iealousy It is the jealousy and the dislike of the unsuccessful for the successful.
 Mining is an industry the very na- ture of which causes jealousy among certain kinds of peonle. You nave met the knockers, and so nave We hundreds of them. One direct result of this is the detrimental leglslatlon which always crops up when a period of prosperity, such as the present time. is enjoyed by mining. People forget the long years or struggling against odds which most companies must go through. and the thousands of dollars expended without an idea of assistance from state or nation, be- fore the humble prospect becomes a .
 pay, they are ready to help pass freak laws by which it's owners will be de- prived of the just reward of their per sistence and sacrifices.
 Any such legislation finds thousands of minimizing nartisans. The only way to combat it is for the mining in- terests to stand together and vote as a unit against any such laws, and to work strenuously against their enact ment. If the railroads, machinery houses, and other interests in the west the prosperity of which is directly due to mining, will stand by the industry and see that their employees do the same. any such legislation will be de- feated. and the great industries of the i state will remain prosperous and con- tinue their advance.
 Do not trust your mining friends to beat such legislation. They cannot do it alone. Work against it and vote against it yourself.
