JIBES AND JOKES.

Every day since she went away.
Just gettin' a glimpse of two short
skirted imps
Oswald Smoki strained chord in
his eye;
He wears binders now and actually
limps.
He meets her in the parlor
When his days work is done,
Where upon only one rocker
Two hearts can beat as one.
A drop of poison small
Will make a mighty giant fall.
One apple with infected spot
Will make bushel spoil and rot.
A pound of butter sweet
That's fresh and fit to eat
Will cause best appetites to fail
When mixed with an ounce old and
stale.
A maniac behind bars is a sad
sight, but he's safer than be-
hind a steering wheel.
Kind words are about the only
things nowadays that cost
nothing, but anything which
costs nothing is apt to be dear at
any price. If it is worth much
and don't cost ANYTHING. it's a
good investment.
While Wickenburg still prays
for rain, Aguila on bended knees
says: Lord. no! We're stuck
in the mud now.''
Don't kick if your motor is
missing; think what it would be
if your whole car should come up
missing.
Uncle Sam believes in the
open door," but rum runners
must shake themselves dry be-
fore coming in.
Just because a girl has a shiny
nose is no reason she's bright.
Il hate that Wickenburg chap"
said the Aguila widow as she
rubbed cold cream on her lips.
Old-time highwaymen were
eulogiZed as daring knights of
the road, and their boldness is
only exceeded by the modern
bandits, who seem to have cour-
age worthy of a better cause.
It's dangerous always to call
down men who are impolite to
women. She might turn on you
for reproving her sweetheart or
husband.
Canvasser-Is the head of the
house in?
Woody-No, she's in Johannes
burg.
Yavapai Ike refused to buy
Bill Putt's horse Tuesday because
Bill swore he'd go ten miles with
out stopping. and Ike only lives
5 miles out.
1t rained so hard an Aguila
cowboy had to give his engage
ment ring to his sweetheart for
birthday present.
New clerk-Looks as if we'd
have some rain today.
Boss-Where do you get that
we" stuff? You're not part
ner here yet.
Mr.. S. to his wife-What you
takin' dem screens out for?
She-So the skeeters can fly in

Come On, Let's Be Fair.


In justice to the people of
Wickenburg and in Difference to
their helpful criticism, the State
Miner raises it's voice against the
installation of any more gas
tanks IN the residential district
than there are now in use. We
do not believe any good can
come out of the refusal to con-
slider grievances that menace the
hopes and ambitions of those
who live and have homes inside
the residence district by our city
officials, who should represent
the people and are supposed to
act in consonance with their
wishes. The petition circulated
calling the town councils atten-
tion to a great wrong bears the
signatures of property owners
who cannot be ignored without
disastrous and righteous criti-
cism against those who are re-
sponsible as public officials. In
Phoenix the other day a vote
was submitted to the people rel
ative to allowing a railroad to GO
thru its principal streets. Fac
tionaI jealousies were present,
the same as here in Wickenburg,
but the people decided that it
was to the best interests Of the
community to let the railroad in.
So it is here. If the city dads
don't wish to appear prejudiced
and partial in the matter, the
least they can do is to give the
petition respectful hearing and
if they so will, submit it to the
great majority of the people. 1t
is customary in cases of this
kind to bar all explosives inside
the residential district of a mum
icipalitv. Dynamite has to be
stored outside the limits, and it
is a question which is the most
dangerous, dynamite or gasoline.
A recent fire spread by the ex-
plosion of gas tanks in a business
block is cited AS cause for anxiety
for life. limb, and property hv
any new tanks being erected in
side the city proper. where peo-
pie live, congregate, and do bus
mess.
The Tempe bank looters will be
tried on Sept. 5th.
Modern cattle rustlers travel in
autos with a trailer. They kill.
bury the hides or burn them and
market the carcasses as a farmer
in the market places. Sheriff
Sullivan caught one of them at
Buckeye this week. A branded
hide should go with every car
cass sold anywhere.

George Manley. one of the
Manley boys of Congress juno
ton, was reported last week as
having died in 10 minutes after
being struck by a rattler in the
neck while crawling thru a wire
fence.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE
THE INDIRECT MINING PROFIT

A statement was once made-it
was in Colorado-that If evey pro-
Queer and wage Garner in and around
Denver would invest something in
prospecting for mines and in devel-
oping mines ne would reap a big
profit If he never received cent
directly from mining. The advice
was accepted by many. Quite a
number received directly from min
ing dividends but every one received
large indirect benefits.
All the geographical reports show
the marvellous extent of the mineral
deposits of Idaho. Here and there
they have been explored, but, for
the most part the ground is virgin.
In the Occur d'Alenes mining has
become a big factor-.there and for
the whole state. Heavy production
has followed prospecting and devel-
opment ~ but if the same attitude
toward mining had been exhibited
years ago in this state as is evidenced
now there might have been no famed

RELIGIOUS EVENT TO BE
HELD IN MOUNTAIN HOME

1t will be an event next Wednes-
day evening when eight national and
state representative of seven lead
ing denominations will meet in our
town for the presentation and dis
eussion of the great matter of how
to best unitedly develop the home
missionary work in this state of Ida
no, backed by the National Home
Missions Council.
The national organization, by it's
representative men, are here to help
the Idaho organization plan, push
and perfect its work.
"The Idaho Home Missions Coun-
Gil is an inter-denominational body
whose purpose is to bring the pure
Gospel of the living Christ to the
last and least of the scattered inhab
itants of our state" Hence the COM
ing meeting is the concern of all our
people in all our towns. Similar
meetings are to be held in all the
principal and many of the smaller
places in southern Idaho. Meeting
here at the Baptist church, p. m.
Come, and bring your neighbors.

Occur d'Alene mining district.
There are other sections Of Idaho
quite as promising as that section
was before the tabled mule kicked
the first chunk of ore from the hill
side. As a business proposition 1t is
up to the people most vitality Unrest
ed to do something about 1t, how
ever, before outside investment can
be expected. If we have anything else
worth while we develop it enough
to make a showing before trying to
sell it. We must do the same with
our mining resources.
There has been much discourage
ment offered by wildcat operations
and stock jobbing schemes. The
same has been true of land develop
ments but we have not quit reclama-
ton or irrigation.
Maybe we cannot go down into our
jeans and finance prospectors or take
financial interest in the development
of prospects with good showing
although we would have a great
mining state if we could all do some
thing along those lines-but we can
at least give our moral aid to this
great industry and protect it from
injustice.
Mining laid the foundation of Ida
no. 1t can be made to finish the
superstructure more quickly and
more ornately.
Agriculture will be all the more
profitable on the basis of larger
home markets and mining makes
those markets.
