GOLD SUPPLY NEEDED.

With all the excitement due to the
high price of copper, the high price
of tungsten and other metals, and
the consequent search, development
and, operation of mines of these met
ais, the public seems to have lost
sight of the one metal that never
goes up and never goes down, gold,
is the statement recently made by
the Arizona State Bureau of Mines
The present movement looking to a
stimulation of trade with South Am
erican countries finds among its Lead
ing obstacles the difficulty of extend
ing the long time credit to which
these countries are accustomed. 1t
demonstrates the need of more money
so that our commerce may benefit by
these immense fields of trade, to
large extent abandoned by foreign
merchants who have heretofore sup
piled their needs.
Given good gold supply upon
which to base extended credit. trade
with the South American countries,
upon a large scale, is assured to the
United States, but without large
gold supply the credit cannot be ex-
tended
With the restoration of pecae in
EuGope, will come an enormous de-
maid for capital with which to re.
stole it's Industrial enterprises, while
ourt growing industrial demands and
theEneed for. financing foreign trade
will greatly increase the demand for
gold.
In our rush for the immediate dol
lar we are forgetting the future; we
are forgetting that the increased sup
ply of fluetuating metals may create
reaction, an oversupply, and a con
sequently lowered price, and We are
failing to provided for the future
money supply that will be necessary
Arizona abounds not only in copper,
but has many deposits Of gold as
well, deposits that are worthy Of in
vestigation and development, and
while the greater profits may not
come now, they will come after the
war on the increased purchasing
power Of gold.

Liquor Case Dismissed.

The case of the State of Arizona
VS.. Herman Amino, charged with in.
Producing liquor into the state, was
dismissed in the superior court of Yu
ma county last week. The defendant
was arrested about two months ago
by Constable Roberts on a Santa Fe
train while en- route between Parker
and Bouse. Amino had several
quarts of booze in. his grip, but
SINCE the supreme court decision was
rendered, granting the right of i'm
importing liquor for personal use, the
county attorneys office decided that
no conviction could be secured in
this case, and upon motion OF the
county attorney the case was dis
missed.

Got Lively Move On.

The two horses, composing the de-
livery team of the Parker Commercial
company, departed from their staid
and standing habits last Wednesday
afternoon, and also took a departure
from their accustomed place on the
street at a rate of speed that not
only upset all former record but also
the wagon to- which they were har-
messed. J. G.. Fuqua had just return
ed from a delivery trip. it appears.
leaving the team standing out in front
while he went into the store for a
minute. It was quitting-time and
the ponies, having "horse sense" !"
evidently knew it, for in their impa-
tience at the boss nOn-appearance,
they started off on their own hook.
Young Roger Garner, seeing the team
start, sprang In at the tail end OF
wagon, ran to the front and threw on
the brake, at the same time reaching
for the lines but could secure only
one, the other having slipped to the
ground. He then found himself in a
bad fix but could do nothing but
wait for results which quickly follow
ed. AS the horses turned into the
alley in front of the Colorado River
Supply Co.'S sheds, one wheel struck
pile of concrete blocks, upsetting
the wagon and throwing the lad out
against the wall of the sheds. The
wagon reach was at the same time
broken, so the horses ran with the
two forward wheels until they butted
up against Miskell's maisonette and
came to a short stop. Fortunately
young Garner was not hurt and only
the reach and tongue Of the wagon
were broken.

Dan Collins, who for long time
has been night operator for the Santa
Fe railroad company in this town, has
been transferred to Vicksburg, Ariz-
ona, where he will be agent instead
of operator, and left Wednesday to
enter upon his duties there. That
position is said to be far more prefer
able to the one he held here, and
while his many friends will regret his
departure, they will be pleased to
learn of his advancement. The place
vacated by him was filled by B. B.

SIMPLE TEST FOR TUNGSTEN.

Prospectors, as a rule, are not fam
iliar with the minerals OF tungsten.
Right now everyone is desirous Of
locating such ore, and all sorts of
minerals are being mistaken for tung
stem compounds. However, it is a
comparatively simple matter for any
one to make a qualitative test that
will quickly determine whether or
not tungsten is present. OF course.
the test cannot be expected to deter

If the ore contains tungsten, yellow
spots of the tungsten trioxide apear
on the edges. If little tin or pure
zinc be added and boiling continued,
blue color is obtained, which fades
to brown. The ores may easily be
distinguished from magnetic, with

Struck High-Grade.

John Purcell, who has been out to
his mine in the Whipple mountains,
came in for supplies Tuesday, and
reports he has recently encountered
some ore that will go in the neigh
borhood of 5000 to the ton. He has
about ton of this ore on the dump
now and is still taking it out He
says that Otto Korn of Parker is also
getting out shipping ore from his
mine near by, and as soon as they
have taken out sufficient amount
of ore between them to make up a
craload, they will ship the same to

Both spring and summer seeding

In order to acquaint the farmers

AS Might Be Expected

The speech of Charles Il. Hughes,
at Carnegie Hall, New York, Monday
evening, accepting the nomination as
the standard bearer OF the Republican
party in the national campaign now
on, in just what might be expected of
him. 1t is a clear, logical and force
full presentation of issues and facts
for his side Of the question and it
sounds the keynote OF the line of con.
duct of the campaign.
Mr.. Hughes touched upon foreign
relations, the Mexican problem, un.
preparedness, peace of the world,
protection, labor laws, the Philippines,
and woman suffrage, all great ques-
tons Of the hour, with directness and
force.
1t is dignitied and strong address
worthy of the man and of the high
Office for which the Republican party
compelled him tot be a candidate.
There is notable lack OF catch
sentences, or specially coined words
for spectacular effect. but the speech
abounds in sentiments OF true Amer.
icanism and a we'll defined policy,
which, il lived up to, would make the
United States bigger and better and
strong in conscience OF doing all
things well. st Adams Messenger.
