 Silver is the present main quest in the Charleston district. Some vcry good showings are being operated on and shipments of ore to smei:er from the station are steadily increasing. None Of these are large, but in the aggregate they make a respectable output Further back in the Huachu- cas there is similarly increasing ac- tivity in developn:e having silver production for its object.

 CUTTING DOWN FORCES

BISBEE. Jan. s.-Heavy cuts in the force of employees of the mining com panies al Cananea have been put in effect during the last few days, in re- sponse to the uncertainty in the co9- per natal market and the probability of a further decrease in price in the ;m mediate future. according 10 local .isitors yesterday. Estimates of the decrease ill force are from 20 to 25 per cent.
 The Cananea Consolidated Copper company was reported to have dis charged several hundred of its en- ployes from the mines and smeiter as ! resul, of the policy of retrenchment The Democrata also was reported to be cutting it's forces.
 Because of the physical conditions and high cost of material both of the properties, which noramlly are considered high cost producers. the margin of profit per pound of copper has become dangerously narrow for them. il is reported.

CARLOAD OF CACTUS
 SHIPPED TO CALIFORNIA

KINGMAN. Jan. 9.-Earl Anderson has just made a shipment Of a big car load Of cactus leaves to a California plant. situated some distance from Los Angeles, where it will be tried out. If successful many shipments will be made to the plant from this county. but if it is found that the costs are too high a plant will be put in at Kingman. The people claim to have a process of decoration that considerably reduces the costs that are in use at other plants.
 Mohave county has thousands of acres overgrown with cacti and the ordinary plant could be operated on its product for years to come.

SECRETARY OF STATE.

In my opinion, the Gaming Laws of the State of Arizona" as amended, includes every game played for any thing of value, whether such thing of value is played for directly or indi- rectly, or whether the same is ex- pressed or implied.
 This opinion may work a seeming injustice in many instances, but the same may be said of any other crimi- nal law. The object of all such laws is to prevent gambling. and, in my opinion, if the Gaming Laws of Ari- soa" are enforced, gambling will be . thing of the past In this state.
 l hope I have made myself p!air,
Tombstone epitaph., 1919-01-12

but if there is anything connected with the gaming laws not herein made plain, and you will call my attention to it. will gladly explain such omis. sions to you It is needless for me to say in conclusion that the exc curion of the gaming laws depend on the once Of the sheriff and distric. a;. torney of tie county. and the co-oreFa. ton of the same.
 Yours. very truly.
