 These marshals as well as Petain and Fran chet dEsporey, are supposedly in active serr- ice. Each Of th&m has some task of inspcc. ton 10 perform and each has hia own personal staff. Petain and Tranchet dEspercy. how ever, are the only ones who have important posts The former is designated commander in chief of the army in case of war and the second is designated 10 command q group Of armies.

THE INITIATIVE IN ACTION

In Arizona the pople have the power to make
and unmake laws, directly. It is a privilege, not
duty.
If you are interested, read on.
Five measures are proposed for your consider
alton in November:
l. Shall we limit our future office holders to
two terms?
2. Shall we limit our butchering of meats to
the we'll equipped meat packers, or allow our
farmers to do a little direct selling, too?
3. Is it time to begin all over tgain in seeking
to protect our game and fish?
4. Can you trust the Higway Department to
handle the immense road tax according to a plan
approved by the Good Roads Association?
5. Do you want to create a Motor Vehicle
Department" and levy motor tax by the weight
of the car?
Any voter can understand these measures. If
you are interested in them, vote.

UNREAL ISSUES

Among the unreal political ISSUES Of the
dap, none will presist longer than that Of pro
hibition. The professional politician is looking
for an ISSUE and in the division of the world into
wet and dry he has what he considers very
handy mould for the two shells Of his oyster.
AS matter of fact prohibition is not a
political issue. Hokever, since it is being set up
on all sides to deceive the voter, it is we'll to have
q rule of thumb for testing out the merits Of pro
hibition.
Do you have as much of that old molasses
small on your main street as you used to have
around the old time saloon? Do you see as many
drunk men as you used to do? Do you get your
SELF drunk as often and as easily as formerly?
Do your clerks go out at lunch time and consume
two or three mugs of beer and a free lunch and
come back smelling Of liquor? Can you actually
name one single high school kid who drinks as
much liquor in year as some of the kids you
went to school with did? Does your boy drink
as you did at his age?
You know how you'll vote, even if you don't
know always how you'll drink.

William Elmer of Hollywood
Scores Again at the Washburn
Summer Work Puts Him Ahead

1t was in July of this year that
Mr.. William M. Elmer, after forming
the Tiger Mines, Inc, to work the
Aguila property long known as Ell
T1gre, took over the Washburn, fif-
teen miles west of Wickernburg, and
declared his intention of going to
the two hundred foot level before
fall with a view to then opening the
mine in earnest.
visit to the Washburn last week
proved Mr.. elmer as good as his
word, with a small force of men
prosecuting to the foot wall at the
200 foot level. On a three-foot vein,
values run from $6 to$2OO in gold
The original location, made by
Charles P Washburn in 1914, con
sisted of four claims The indicat-
ions were good from the first that
this would make a gold mine, and
the work was pushed down fifty feet
in the main shaft at an early date
in its development Sampling never
failed to show good values, and min
ing men came to have great confid-
ence in the future of the property.
Like other good prospects in the
vicinity the slump which came on
after the war enforced a period Of
practical idleness on the property, al

buck on the opening day and then
filled up his powder pouch and shot

where his buck fell. On returning
to Wickenburg, he called in the best
expert service and now has two

though several attempts were made
to get capital to push the develop
ment further In all this time, it
was frequently predicted that this
would be one of the claims that
would come in for early organ
ization.
Mr.. Elmer was among those at
tracted to the property by the actual
values shown in samples taken from
all stages of development, and, as
soon as he had completed his organ
ization work in connection with Ell
Tigre and the Tiger Mines, Inc, he
took over the Washburn for i'm
mediate development.
All though the summer the work
has been pushed thro with the re-
suit that the property which Mr..
Elmer has increased to eight claims.
now has a shaft down to the 200
foot level, and with hoist and com
pressor sufficient for all immediate
needs, is in position to reap the
benefit of the present movement in
Wickenburg mining affairs
Samples taken out of the vein
this week show much free gold in a
disintegrated granite formation and
will assay better than any previous
ly taken out, it is believed.

The story as told by Mr.. Davis.
is in part as follows:
The purchase of CONTROL of the
Monte Cristo mine by c. G. Julian
for the Julian Merger Mines company
has created renewed interest and at
tention to the mining area in which
this property is located, and during
the past two weeks several properties
have changed hands, either through
sale or option to purchase, and it is
reported that a number of deals are
now pending for properties either
adjoining or adjacent to the Monte
Cristo.
The three most important deals
closed during the past week are:
the sale of Harvard Group of 31a
claims by Mrs. F. x. O'Brien to the
Julian interests, the sale of the Ora
Ham and Rowland groups to E. B.
Hall, c. N. Miller and their associ-
ates of San Francisco, and the sale
Of the Huber and Pritchett group
of IA claims to the Smuggler Divide
Mining company of Nevada.
The Harvard group adjoins the
Monte Cristo on the couth, the Ora
Ham Roland ground joins the Miz-
pah on the south and the Huber and
Pritchett group lies about 5000 feet
southeasterly from the Monte Cristo
property and probably covers the
southeasterly extension of the Monte
Mizpah system Of veins.
The mineral belt in which the
Monte Cristo veins occur strikes
northwesterly-southeasterly and ex-
tends for a distance of approximate
Iy 5 miles along the strike by 2
miles il width Within this area,
known as the middle belt" there
are anumber Of promising prospects
and partly developed properties
which warrent development.
At a distance of approximately 2
miles east of the Monte CristO, sr
Middle Belt, there is a strongly min
eralned zone, known as the East
Belt, and parallel to the Middle
Belt. This mineralized zone extends
tfcr about the same length and with
as the Middle Belt, and the surface
outcrops and development to date i'll
dicate that it holds much promise OF
becoming an important producer of
copper and gold.

The climate is the big feature of
fered by all these ranches and this
"happy medium of the foothills" will
prove attractive to the whole world
just as soon as it becomes known
that good accommodations are being
provided for the entertainment Of
guests.
IDEAL LOCATION
Monte Vista enjoys a location just
little different from any of the
other ranches of the kind, in that
it is on high ground away from the
river somewhat and yet overlooking
the stream for great distance in
both direstions. The immediate sur
roundings are typical resert ecenes
and the ais is dry and invigorating.
A year ago Mr.. White located this
rising ground just mile north Of
Wickenbnrg along the Prescott high
way and Immediately began to plan
for modern ranch house built with
an eye to the entertainment of tour
ist trade. with a central ranch-hotel
and a series of outlying accommodate
ions on the English cottage plan.
The main building which is now
nearing completion is adirably Iocat-
ed under the lee of hill that rises
on the west, affording protection from
the sweep of the wind and a natural
elevation for the location of the
lookout house. The living room has
an ootlook to the east and to the
west, and is thanked by two wings
consisting Of bed rooms to the north
and to the south, all rooms having
the maximum Of light and air and
Of cozy indoor comfort.
The kitchen is located in this
building and will be completely cd
upper with every detail necessary
to the establishment of a first class
cuisine.

Within the past few days, the
