 Wester has secured the promise of Boardman to come here for the camp for the full period of vacation, if pos siblc, in case way can be found to cut down the cost of transportation. Wester proposes to the automobile club here to offer to meet the Phoe- nix club at Congress Junction, and bring the boys up in that way. This plan will be worked out next week, when oBardman will arrive to look the ground over.
 The telephone company is going to furnish the tents and all cooking utensils. Superintendent Baker and the school board last night agreed to let of certain number of fellows in the graded and High schools, who are efficient in their studies, so they can join the camp.
 Prof. L. L. Bates, head of the dry farm, will act as the farm advisor for the camp free of charge. He IS anxi- ous to prove to some of the doubters that dry farming methods as worked out at the experiment station are worth applying to actual practice. He says the tract the boys propose to cultivate is excellent soil and well will t repay little time and attention.

Plans have been consummated for financing the Jerome Copper Mining Company and arc to be supplemented at once by the inauguration of an az gressive campaign of development on the company's mining holdings at Je- rome, under the supervision of A. L. Johns, mining engineer of recog- nized ability and standing. The fore going information was telegraphed to this city yesterday from Chicago by E. A. Kastner, president of the com pany, and assures the future of prop erty long acknowledged to be one of the most promising in the famous Verde copper belt.
 For some time past Mir Kastner, accompanied by Homer King, con> sulting engineer for the Jerome Cop per Mining Company, has been in the East arranging its financing, with the result that a substantial fund is now available for development require ments. This fund will first be drawn upon to meet the expense of the pre- liminary work incidental to the selec- ton of shaft site, and thereafter for the purchase of adequate machinery and the sinking of the shaft to the strata of primary copper enrichment. The development campaign will start next week upon the return to Prescott of Messrs Kastner and King and will be forwarded as expeditiously as con ditions at the property permit.
 The claims held by the company arc known as the Ewing & Hooker group. They are located in well mineralized section of the camp, ad- joining the holdings of the Green Monster Company, and have been favorably passed upon by several prominent mining engineers. J. We'll ington Finch, mining engineer of international repute, and Dr. Walter Harvey Weed, the eminent gcologist, have placed the seal of approval on the adjoining property. and have eX- pressed the opinion that the section is in general one of unusual promise from a mining standpoint.
 The mineral showing on the com pany's Porous Iron claim IS particu- larly noticeable and is accepted as be- ing indicative of a large and valuable underlying body of copper ore. In

ARIZONA CATTLE
 GROWER GIVES FOOD DATA

Returning from Washington during the week, F. A. Reid, of the Reid Cashion Land & Cattle Go. of this county, stated that the food problem, from the angle of official considera- ton, was becoming intense and action was being earnestly taken toward averting what might be classed as a crisis to follow in months to come.
 Mir. Reid, being identified with one of the largest livestock concerns Tn the State, his ability to impart need full information was sought by the senate committee on agriculture as well did he have personal interview with Secretary of Agriculture Hous- ton. The object, MT Reid states, was to learn the resources of his section in farming as well as livestock assets. It is his belief from the disposition manifested in all official channels, that a minimum price will be established, but not along lines which will pro- hibit a rcmuncrative price being paid the producer The disposition seemed to be for the producer to increase his efforts that production might be in creased, and the government would guarantee a price that will prove ac- ccptablc to all affected.
 ''To stabilize the market, and fix a minimum price, is the evident purpose of the government" he says, "and re- ports that any industry will be seri- ously disturbed are misleading"
 Another interesting matter mem toned by Mir Reid, was that when ac- ton is taken in selective drafting for an army, it is quite probable that all qualified to enter the ranks who are working on farms or ranges to pro duce food will not be disturbed in their vacations, the government keen ly apprcciating their services as being invaluable during the period when they will be called upon to provide any article which may be required along lines of high standard of pro duction both as to quantity and quality.

HUNT CONTEST MERELY ADDS
 37 ID 30
MAKING FINAL TOTAL OF 67 VOTES BY WHICH TOM
 CAMPBELL WON HI s OFFICE; LOCAL M AN
 WINS THREE BATTLES.
Special to the Journa1-M1ner.

PHOENIX, May 11.-Now let the tigers roar. That is the attitude of the ardent supporters of Governor Campbell in the five months legal battle by which he won for a third time, his scat at the State house. For the final result of the attack by Ex- Governor Hunt was to boost Tom Campbell's majority by g votes, making his official majority by the court ruling, c instead of 90. His first battle was in the election, his second in the Supreme court and his third in the Superior court.
 This is within a few votes of the figure predicted for Campbell by tho Republican State Central committee when the returns from the election were all wired to Phoenix the week following the election. The official or canvassed returns, announced some two weeks following, reduced this fig ure 10 30. and it was to overthrow the Du lildl -hi- HIS lOhiOho and, as it proved, futile attack before Judge Stanford.
 When Judge Stanford announced that Campbell was the victor, he did not state the exact majority by which his new figures awarded the place to the Big Sombrcro. He said there was still some figuring to do, and that the final majority would be between 30 and 50. Yesterday, he named the score at the end of this many-inning game, giving the winner more votes than even he, the judge, had thought
 Figures on file at the office of Chair man Maddock of the Republican State Central committee and based on court rulings, gave Campbell 69. Of these, three were not allowed by the court but another stray vote for Campbell was found in the rubbish of the re- count, making total final plurality of e.

MILL FOR
 TWO OLD GOLD MINES
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

Through w. C. Thomas, consulting engineer of the Wolf-Arizona Copper Company, announcement was made yesterday of very important move ment decided upon in operating the McCabe and Gladstone mines, in which Notation mill of the Callow process will be installed at once
 Both old properties are to also be subjected to a very extensive plan oi development, which action follows a system of prospecting given for sev- eral months past, results being grati- flying.
 The old mill dump of the McCabe has tailings pit that reaches to over 17000 tons, and a thorough system of sampling returned satisfactory val ues in gold and other metals, the former predominating. The new op- erating company succeeds the New ark Copper Co.,, which held an option to purchase both above holdings, and during possession performed large line of preliminary development, which was centered mainly to the Gladstone.
 Mir. Thomas is particularly pleased with the showing made in the upper levels of the latter, and in extending these workings uncovered large ore bodies that proved surprising in their gold content. The new Notation plant is to arrive in few days and has a capacity of treating 100 tons per day. Other matters affecting mine develop. ment are being arranged, and both properties are expected to be in full swing inside of 30 days.

 The group consists of ten claims situated less than three miles north west of the Commercial in Copper Basin, and development given by the former owners extending to many years ago, consists of l2 shafts rang ing in depths of from ten to over e feet. The values are copper only, and in some openings good per centage of the red metal is shown. A camp is being established and work begins at certain points immediately. Machinery is ordered also, and the point for placing such will be decided upon after development is given. This property is among the oldest in point of location in the Copper Basin dis trict, and its ore content is identical to that of the Loma Prieta, the Com- mcrcial, Copper Hill and other mines now operating in the basin proper. IL it generally believed by mining en- gineers that the Ehlc is continua- ton of the above belt, which form an operating standpoint is today passing through larger exploration under fat orablc conditions than at any time in its history,

That Ed. Towner attempted to cs- tablish right by might over the Jean No. 7 lode mining claim in the Agua Fria district, is the allegation on which r. ]. Hobson and E. NJ. Cop len base their petition for relief, ad- dressed to the Superior court yestcr- day. Court Commissioner J. M. W. Moore, acting in the absence of Judge F. O. Smith, issued a temporary re- straining order, enjoining Towner to get off the Jean.
 The complaint states that the plain tiffs had an established right in the Jean claim, but that it wasn't pat entcd. Towner, they allege, jumped the claim and with firearms and irate words, prevented the claimants from performing the assessment work, without which the claim lapses and is lost to the locators. The locators allcgc that the claim is a rich one, and besides, is ono of several they hold in that neighborhood, and tha, to break up their holdings by grab ping the Jean would work great losses upon them.
 Commissioner Moorc's order is good for ten days. A bond of S25O was put up by Hobson and Coplcn, who arc represented by Clark & Clark.

When the Stars and Stripes began to fly from every business and resi- dcncc structure in the nation, and from the pages of most newspapers, and lots of other places, too numerous to mention, no flag appeared above the one real government property in Yavapai county. This fact aroused the interest and finally the ire of a number of citizens, who began to ad- dress pointed questions to everybody they thought could give an answer.
 Acting on these queries, the Jour nal-Miner shot a question at Con- gressman Hayden, and yesterday, re- ccived the above reply.
 The fact that the fort is at present useless waste of perfectly good building material, occupied by (a) one sergeant carctaker and (b) number less ants, flies, weeds and vagran, breezcs is regarded as no good reason why it should not be decorated with the colors. Mir. Haydcn's reply is strictly in accord with the informa- ton he received, and as such, is prop CT, but it does not yet answer the question the people of Prescott have asked.
