had been predicted that a determined
effort to have congress act would be
made soon after the session opens.

DR. RICKETTS, BACK FROM LONG
 TRIP
Inspiration Engineer and Director Relates History of Journey. Chief Copper Company Has Enormous Disseminated Body of Ore.

Coming direct from New York City to Arizona, Dr. L. D. Ricketts ar rived in Globe last night, alter an absence from the state of three ricnths, the greater part of the time having been spent by him on jour ney, combining business and pleas ure, to south America. Dr. Ricketts is consulting engineer and director of the Inspiration Consolidated Copper company, and his desire to note, from personal inspection, the prog ress that has been made at that great property since his last visit to Globe in January, is the reason of his coming here before visiting other mining properties with which he is connected in the southwest.
 l Dr. Ricketts returned to New York April from his trip to the south ern continent, which was highly in- teresting to him as mining engi- neer and an observent traveller. Sail ing from New York the latter part of January, the doctor arrived at i Colon, the port at the Atlantic termi- nus of the Panama canal, shortly after the last Culebra slide had closed the great waterway to ocean-going vessels. However, through the court ' made the trip through the canal, ac- companied by that official, in a steam launch, and viewed the big ditch to better advantage than would have been possible from the deck of la large steamship.
 Embarking at Panama on coast steamer, Dr. Ricketts voyaged south to Africa, the northernmost port of Chile. from which point he entered Bolivia, traversing a great plateau 13,000 feet above sea level. Bolivia has some important copper deposits but slightly developed, and after spending several days in that coun- try, the doctor travelled by rail through the Atacama desert to Gnu |quicamata, where are situated the mines of the Chile Copper company, having the largest known disseminat- ed ore body in the world. Resum- ling the journey, he passed by rail through the nitrate fields in northern lChile to the property of the Andes Exploration company, and thence south to the Braden copper mines rear Santiago a Guggenheim prop Ierty that has a great tonnage de Iveloped and a modern plant of large Icapacity. Santiago is situated in an agricultural district that is won- derfully productive and beautiful.
 From Santiago, Dr. Ricketts cross ed the continent over the Trans-An- Idean railroad, passing through the Andes Mountains at a high altitude, (which presents some of the grandest mountain scenery in the world |; and thence across the Republic of Argentine to Buenos Aires, where the dictor took steamer for New York. During the entire journey, Dr
 Ricketts was favored by good weath Ter. He was twenty-two days on the Ioutward voyage and twenty-three days on the return voyage from Buenos
 Aires, and thirty days on land.
 Dr. Ricketts will leave tomorrow
 morning for Bisbee.

MINING MAN BITTEN BY SNAKE SOON
 DEL|R|OUS

William Tovote of Bisbee, Arizona, a representative of the Copper Queen Mining company of that camp, re- gently had a narrow escape from death as a result of being bitten by huge rattiesnake while enroute to a prop erty near Blackberry to make an eX- animation.
 Coming upon the snake, MT. Tovote pinned it to the ground by placing the metal portion of his prospecting pick immediately back of the reptiles head. As he reached over with his free hand to pull the rattles from the snakes tail, his pick slipped and, quick as a flash, the reptile bit him in the hand, and made it's escape.
 MT. Tovote sucked blood from the wound and refused to heed the advice of his companions to seek medical aid About a half hour later MT. Tovote became very sick and he was hurried to the government Indian school at Valentine. By the time of his arrival there, MT. Tovote was in a delirious condition and Dr. Riggs worked or him several hours before he was pro inounced out of danger.

REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION AT
 MORENC|
Four Precincts are Represented at Meeting Held at Morenci Club on Saturday Night.

On last Saturday night delegation of Clifton republicans went to Mo- renri as delegftes to the county re- publican convention which met in the Morenci Club. Delegates from Met calf and Duncan were also. present, the outlying precincts not being repre- sented on account of their remoteness.
 The meeting was presided over by Dell NJ. Potter, county chairman, and from the start things went off with vim and energy never before seen in a meeting of this kind in Greenlee county. Harmony prevailed through out and although the various discus sions were animated, there was no note of discord sounded during the evening.
 At this meeting it was decided to put a full county ticket in the field and give the democrats run for their money this fall. The republicans are very optimistic this year and are confident that some of their candid ates will at least be elected to county offices. This optimism was shown at the meeting of Saturday night in speeches by the older members and through their enthusiasm the life of the party was given renewed energy
 One of the most important moves made at this meeting was the recogni tiop of the part the ladies will play ill the coming campaign, and that the republicans do not intend to overlook their right to join in the affairs of the party, a lady was chosen as alternate from each precinct to the state con vention to be held in Tucson on May 9th Among other matters taken uI was the formation of the Greenlee County Republican Club. The clut was formed as the central organiza tion while precinct clubs will be formed in different parts of the coun ty. The women will also be asked to take part in this action and to es tablish clubs of their own to work ir conjunction with the central body.
 The following delegates and alter mates were elected to represent Green lee county at the state convention al Tucson on May 6:
 Clifton: J. c. Gatti, Dell M. Pot ter and David E. Bronson. Alternates Mrs Margaret Wiiletts, Henry Ril and Richard Stephens.
 Morenci: Frank Mclean, D. M Cansler, Willis Stewart.
 Alternates: Mrs. c. F. Stanger c. IT. Davidson, Chas. Chesterfield.
 Metcalf: P. T. Farrar, Chas. H Farnsworth. AlteTnates: Mrs. So phie S. Farnsworth, Al Ferris.
 Duncan: J. R. Fowler. Alternate Mrs. w. H. Alexander.

Luncheon was serv- ed here too, a la cafeteria, which was most bounteous and most hearti- ly enjoyed by all.
 At three o'clock Mrs. Dyer, the president of the Uplift Club, led the way down the hill to one of the school buildings where a very entertaining program was rendered consisting of music, speeches, papers, etc, some serious and some witty, and all worth repeating on some other occasion.
 At four o'clock the Clifton wo- men reluctantly took their way home feeling that the day was all toe short mad that but for an untimely train and clamoring families at home lthey might always be on frol1c 1T
