TIIE FLORENCE TRIBUNE Br CHAS. D. REPPV. ONLY N PiMALCOUiff. FLORENCE. ARI30NA. JANUARY 15, 1808. TERMS: OneYear ;Six months. . . . SS.P0 1.50 Entered at the Florence poetoSlce as sec 'bnd class matter. The glorious rains all over the coun Hy the past week insure a bountiful crop of grain and good feed for stock on the range. Gov. McCord's report to the Secre tary of the Interior has been issued. It is a valuable document of 152 pages, full of maps, illustrations, facts and figures. A tobkado visited Fort Smith, Ark., last Tuesday night, in which about fifty paople were killed and more than half a million dollars worth of property was destroyed. , Thb Phoenix Gazette says "Stein's Pass is a small way-station just over the Arizona line in Texas." Has New Mexico dropped outT If the territories don't get home rule they might as well. Mast are of the opinion that Dur rant changed his religious belief at tbe last moment because he wanted to confess his crime to some one and knew that the secrecy of the confessional was inviolable. Arizona editors are jubilant over the recent great surgical discovery that a man can live without a stomach. If they can only retain their gall they can manage to get along without any other internal workings. It seems that Boss Hnnna got there after all in the Ohio senatorial contest, although his sack is said to be greatly depleted. With its lynebings and boodle statesmen the Backeye State is getting a bard reputation. Eves that rampant gold-bug corpo ration organ, the Los Angeles Times, is disgusted with the election of tbe Boodle Boss Banna as Senator from Ohio. It sees in such a victory ( ?) the -downfall of the Republican party. 'Sshatob Bublby of West Virginia ays : "The Republicans of our State are almost equally divided on tbe sil vr issue. We cannot go before the people with a gold basis platform, and at the same time nope lor success at the polls." Mr. Burley is not only a Hepublican, but is also an advocate of the gold standard. Some one says : "From tailor's bills, doctor's pills, sudden chills and other iills deliver ns. From want of gold, wives that scold, maidens old and -widows bold deliver us. From seedy coats, protested notes, illegal votes and 'sinking boats deliver ns. From modest girls, with waving cnrls and teeth like pearls well, never mind." Thb effort to deleat the confirma tion of Judge Webster Street for Chief Justice of Arizona, on account of an honest decision rendered in the applica tion for a receiver for the Arizona canal, is on a par with Eanna methods now controlling the Republican party. Thank God ! there is a decent majority in the United Slates Senai, and tbe boodlers are not likely to succeed in their evil designs. Thb work of "fooling the people" is still to be continued. According to a Washington dispatch Senator Chandler bad a conference with President Mc Kinley last Monday upon the subject of bimetallism and said after the inter view: "The President stands firmly Ifi favor of international bimetallism as promised by the St. Louis platform He considers the negotiations with European powers only temporarily suspended on account of the peculiar condition of affairs in India, and it is the President's intention to again send his envoys to Europe as soon as the conditions are favorable." ' The outlook for Florence was never as bright as at the present time. The prospect of a railroad is good ; our peo ple are making every effort to secure an appropriation by the Government for the construction of the Buttes res ervoir, and there is a fair chance of success. An application has been made to Judge Davis for authority to issue $30,000 of receiver's certificates for the purpose of cleauing out and improving the Casa Orando Valley canal, and the need of the improve ment is so urgent in order to protect the property and the farmers that it is confidently believed the application will be granted. In addition 'to this the recent soaking rains have insured a good grain crop and abundance of feed on the range. Certainly Pinal county has little to complain of. The Board of Supervisors of Pinal county this week unanimously adopted resolutions urging the passage of the bill now before Congress providing for the election of territorial officers by a popular vote of the people of the Terri tory. As the Tribune has previously remarked, fair-minded men could hard ly do otherwise when" the matter is brought before them. If Arizona is cot entitled to the privilege of select ing its own officers, then we are cer tainly not entitled to statehood. Tdk beauties of civil service were shown during the last administration in a territory not more than a million miles from Arizona. A degenerate son of an illustrious sire had in his sober moments managed to pass the neces sary examination and was sent out west by Hoke Smith and located in the office of the Surveyor General... He toiled not, neither did he spin, and when remonstrated with by his superi or officer, he returned the remon strance with the following vigorous lan guage, "You d d Cousin Jack, if you monkey with me I'll have you on your way back to Cornwall in three weeks." It is needless to say that he was not "monkeyed" with, for it was believed he could do it, as the Surveyor General was not on the classified list. Call for Miners' Convention. Oovernor MeCord on Jan. 5th issued the following call for a miners' con ventioD : In compliance with many requests and in response to the suggestion made by several newspapers of the territory and believing that a free interchange of views and united action of those in terested would result in much good to that important industry in this terrl tory, I deem it best to invite those in terested in mines and mining in this territory to meet at Phoenix, Arizona on the 25th day of January, 1898, at 2 o'clock p. m. of that day for the purpose or taking such action relative to form ing a mining association as shall seem wise and expedient. This call is with out authority of law, but as nearly all western states have such an organiza tion, which have resulted in much benefit to the interest, I have taken the liberty to take the initiative by issuing this call. I do not deem it wise to specify how representation for the convention shall be arranged any further than to invite each camp to send as many of its representative men as it desires, and further that all who are interested in mines or mining to be present. The fairness and good sense of those present will undoubtedly adjust all questions as to representation fairly and satisfactorily. Very respectfully, Myron H. McCord, Governor ot Arizona. D. A. LeBaron was over from Kenil worth this week. He says crops are looking fine over in that country and that a very large area has been sown to grain. Mesa Free Press. This morning Mr. J. D. Milton, dep uty U. S. Marshal in command of the the posse hunting Black Jack, arrived by rail from Casas Grandes, Chihua hua, where he left the posse a couple of days since. All are well, and they have taken some of the gang, but not all. He came over on important busl ness and will return immediately. Nogales Oasis. Joe Armenta has secured a splendid position in the store of F. B. Maldo nado at Casa Grande. He will leave for that place, accompanied by his family, on Sunday. Joe is a fine young fellow and his many friends will be pleased to hear of his good fortune. Tempe News. A Business Change In Florence. Charles E. Perkins, the well-known merchant who has been in Florence for the past ten years, has decided to make a change in his bnsiness. He has tried both the credit and cash sys tems thoroughly, and the results have shown that he can sell goods on a cash basis at a much less price than has ever been done in Florence. Therefore, on and after Nov. 1, 1897, all credit will be discontiaued. Negotiable paper and farm and ranch products received in exchange at cash prices. A general marking down in prices will commence Nov. 1. Call in and get full value for your money. Don't pay any more war prices. All bills now outstanding become due Nov, 1. AS HIS MOTHER USED TO DO. From the Chicago Timet. He crltlzed her puddings and he fooi.J fault with her cake; Ho wished, she'd make sh ulscnit ns his uiother used to malt; She didn't woih thedi.bes and she didn't make a stew. Nor even mend hi. stockings, as hi. mother used to do. IT I . . ... mamoTiier nuotix children, but b niht her work was done: His wife .corned drudging always, yet she only had the one. His mother always was well ,l,.i vi. wife should be so, too, If only she would manage as hi. mother used to do. Ah, well! She was not perfect, though she tried to do her I.ort Until at length she thought her time bad come to have a rest; So when one day he went the same old rigmarole all throngh, She turned and boxed his ears,' Ju&t 'as hi mother used to do. Mrs. E. S. Gill, wife of the clerk of the District Court, died yesterday even ing at 6 :30 o'clock from the effects a dose of crude carbolic acid, taken with ! suicidal intent while suffering teuipof ary mental ' aberrating rp,;. ... . Herald, Jan. 8. , - . : . ' It is reported that Pedro Aguirre, son of Mrs. M. B. Aguirre of this city, and brother of Steve Aguirre of No gales, had become insane at the city of Mexico. Uis insanity it i3 said is a re sult of being wounded in the bead by a slung shot several years ago. The un fortunate young man will probably be brought to this city. Tucson Citizen. E. L. Giroux, for W. A. Clark of the United Verde Company, has bonded the Copper Belle group of mines, located in Garden Gulch, near Hawk Canyon, oa the San Carlos reservation, for $50,000, the date of bond to commence within thirty days after the completion of the survey which segregates the coal fields from the reservation. These properties are said to be the most promising yet discovered on the reser vation. Bulletin. How We Amuss Ourselves on tho Frontier. The Jerome Reporter gives an ex tended account of a grand New Years ball held in that camp the otlmr night by the Independent Order of Eedmen, which for realistic realism eclipses anything of tbe kind ever seen in Ari zona, and would cause even Zola to takeoff his hat. The Reporter sa.rs: "The next dance on the program was by Mangus Tribe, No. 4. The warriors were called to order by their chief and informed that a paleface had succeeded in getting among them and were instructed to Bearch for him, and after going around the room sevral times the intruder was d'soiverod. He was conducted to a stake placed in the center of the hall and tied, while the warriors after marching around ih stake in Indian fashion, seated th em selves on the floor Indian style. Th j paleface was tried and condemn sd t) be scalped. The braves, assisted by five genuine Navajo Indians, tbeu scalped the paleface aid executed a very fine scalp dance. We are glad we were not in his place as (he boys handled h'm p:etty roughly, Tbe captive had prepared himself for the scalping by wearing a wig and having a bladder stretched over bis hair. Tue brave who d'd the scalping had .tlso prepared a sponge filled with blood for tbe act. The entire performance was so real that several of the ladies we:e very much excited," Only a Tramp. A tramp who was stealing a r d to Maricopa last Monday night on the brake-beam of one of the pn?senjer coaches was run over and received in juries that caused his death. As the train was nearing Petersen's coe of the brake beams of the coa li ander which the tramp was riding, irl down and was broken. The train way stop ped and it was decided to ba.-k the damaged car onto the siding and leave it. Tbe balance of the train was un coupled and switched and the engine came back to sidetrack the coach. Tbe tramp thought he was being lefVand started to crawl from under the car just as the engine struck, it and the wheels passed ow him, avu., off both his legs. He was picked up and placed on the tram and taken to Mari eopa where he died twenty minutes af ter arriving. He refused to disclose his name. Tempe News. Passengers on the train give a slight ly different account of the unfortunate accident. A prominent citizen of Flor ence says the spirit displayed by the railroad men was the most cold-blood ed and heartless he ever witnessed. While the poor mangled fellow was lying on the ground some one handed tho conductor a bottle of whisky to give the tramp a drink, which he re fused. The conductor placed the Kit tle to his lips with the remark, "Well, I'll take some myself." The passengers insisted on the conductor running the train back to Tempe, only three miles, where surgical attention could be had, but the request was refused, and the train went on to Maricopa, where it was well known there was no doctor, and the poor unfortunate fellow was allowed to lie on a truck on the plat form, in the rain, where he died, and was still lying there when the S. P. train left. If there isn't a hereafter for such heartlessness there ought to be. ' MINING APPLICATION No. 658. UNITED STATES LAND OFFICE, j Tuosos. Arizona.
