THE ELECTION.

Election day is over. The full of the county contests, but that Arizona will have Democratic administration from now on for two years is assured. Governor Hunt piled up 8 majority of 2. 900 over Governor Campbell and l carried the complete state ticket with him, says the Arizona Cat tleman and Farmer.
 It is to the agricultural coun ties of Maricopa, Graham, Pima, Pinal, Santa Cruz and Yuma that the Democratic candidates of the state owe their apprecia ton. Each one of them with the exception of Pima gave the Democrats 8 substantial major ity. And it is up to the admin istration at Phoenix to repay that debt to the farmers and the cattlemen of the state. What will be accomplished by the next Legislature will be watched with great interest by the agricult- ural and cattle industries of the state.
 There is much work to be done in this state for the farmer and cattleman. The. University of Arizona's School of Agriculture must not be 'haupered in any way in it's work on behalf of the farming and livestock interests of the state. Sufficient funds must be provided for this work.
 Funds must be provided fiber ally for the Livestock Sanitary Board for it's work in the eradi- cation of disease. The last Le gislature dropped from it's ap propriations the fund devoted to the treatment of blackleg. This fund must be restored.
 And above all, it is up to the State Legislature to see that whatever is done with the Colo rado project that the people of this state should no be deprived of thelr just rights. They must get water and hyro electric DO wer at cost. There must be flood control for the Imperial Valley.
 Then there is the bugbear of taxation. This burden must be lifted from the backs of tue farmer and the cattleman, who is the final analysis, are or will prove to be the backbone of Arizona's prosperity. and placed justly on those organizations formed for the main purpose of taking all the wealth out of the state.

of about one fifth gold and four tifthS silver. The value of the ore varied from $2O a ton to, in some cases, Sl5O a ton.
 The policy pursued by the Southern Pacific was to publish at once a graduated tariff, per mitting tue movement to Utah and California smelters of the low grade, as we'll as the high grade ore.
 As a result, Tonopah has pro duced during the past twenty two years approximately S1OO, GOO, GOO from it's mines. The bullion roduction there at this time is approximately $4OO. QUO each month.
 , Valuable ore bodies recently were discovered at a depth of 1.SOU feet, insuring production for many years.
 Goldfeld was discovered as a mining camp in 1902. Toe ore produced gold and ran in value from $2O ton to, in some cases, s, ,0OO a ton.
 From the mines at Goldfeld there was produced, between 1902 and 1916, approximately $50. 100000. The Nevada Con solidated company alone paid S20, 900, GOO in dividends.
 At present Goldfield is pro ducing from S6O,000 to $S9, 900 worth of ore each month. Sev eral companies are sinking deep shafts. from which are run tun uels for the purpose of bringing out great ore bodies at depth much greater than those first worked.
 The silver mines at Rochester, Nevada, were discovered in 1911. The camp so far has produced ore valued at approximately S7, 100000.
 The story of development work in t.rIzona, New Mexico and in other sections is similar one.

THE OLD SPANISH TRAIL.

l sometimes wonder what the highway editor of the Mohave Miner thought when he read of 50 miles an hour being made from Douglas to Phoenix, Octo. Der 50, over the Old Spanish Trail. This is 27O miles of the route that the aforesaid editor called a "cow trail" We'll, at
 any rate, that is going some over
 a COW trail" This man from
 the north has the wrong view
 point on highway matters. He
 has single track mind-he
 wants all traffic over the road
 running through his town. We
 don't, all we want is our share
 and we feel satisfied we will get our share because of our excel
 lent highways and superior at
 tractiOn-but not superior to the Grand Canyon and Petri6ed For est; there are che two greatest
 scenic wonders of the world and
 we wish every tourist to see
 them at least once, then they
 will come back over the south ern route through Arizona, and that's where we come in. So,
 MT. Mohave Miner highway edi- tor, let's play fair-there is en- ouRh for both routes.
 We are now getting about 100 cars of tourists daily over this
 COW trail" as tue Mohave Min CT calls it, but which is nation ally known as the Old Spanish Trail, and the way they all boost the all southern route, free from snow,m mud or other impediments, is the means of bringing moro and more tourists over this old COW trail" that you can drive over at the rate of 50 miles per hour Speed cops permitting through Douglas, Bisbee, Tomb stone, Benson, Tucson, Florence and Phoenix to Buckeye and by next spring it can be done into Yuma.
 Think of it-5O miles an hour across one state and the so. call ed desert" state at that; over four hundred miles of roadway without chuck holes or mud by May, 1923.
 Ten miles of asphaltic concrete highway between Bisbee and Tombstone, now opened for traf- fic, is money maker from the start-the tire saving alone on that stretch will run into large figures. Will it stand up? A question asked by many. but mostly by people opposed to the paving or who know absolutely nothing about paving at all. The mixture used for this top is 6 per cent asphalt, as against 94 per cent rock, sand and gravel, and this mixture has stood g. wonderful test, no less than hav- Ing 40 loads hauled each day of 32 working days over the miles extending towards Bisbee from the mixing plant and the 40 loads daily averaging 12 ton 700 lbs. to each load. a test 1t will in all proba bility never have again, and there is not a noticeable de- feet in the f miles. It appears to be question of base" and we have that base in several places on the highway in Co., chise county and over Arizona PhN bO HINS 0o many stretches of paved high way at one-third to one fourth the cost of other paving that will not meet this new stuff in any way. Five miles of it is to be laid east of Mesa on the Su- perior highway. Cochise county can get 23 to miles more right now if she wants it.-A. H. Gardner in Tom bstone Prospec- tor.

NEW YORK, Mar. 4.-More
hopeful, financial, commercial and
industrial conditions, reported
from various sections Of the coun-
try, found expression in the ac-
tive dealings on tho stock ex-
change this week.
Trading in stocks and bonds ex-
ceeded any like period thus far
this year, and high records for the
current movement were establish
ed by many issues. Improvement
was most substantial in specula-
tive shares, however, material
gains being limited to junior rails
and obscure specialties.
The money market was n help
full factor, call loans being made
for the most part at Az per cent;
purchases of 80 to 80 day bills,
especially commercial paper, some
Of which was purchased at a slight
concession from the a ga per cent
rate. Production in the steel and
iron trade was on an ascending
scale, but the further readjustment
Of conditions in that business was
indicated by the unexpected omis-
sion Of the dividend on SloSs
Sheffield steel preferred. Similar
development went against relative
issues.
