This is a that speaks volumes for our climate and the superintendency of the Territorial Industrial School. At present there are seventy-five boys and eighty girls in the institution, and -when asked, Supt. Mahoney stated that there was no sickness among his charges, although the school was overcrowded.

The farmer from the government Sacaton experimental farm was here last week inspecting this cotton crop and stated that it looks better than does the crop at Sacaton.

This is encouraging as the cotton raised at Sacaton for several seasons past, according to the reports of the Washington cotton experts had a greater length and strength of fiber than any cotton grown in the United States. Fifteen bales of it ship- ped to New York last year brought 31 cents per pound, when the best southern cotton was selling in the same market at 10 and 18 cents per pound. Florence Blade. CASA GRANDE VALLEY. A Section.

of Sunny Arizona Now Attracting Attencion. The history of Arizona is a history of- strugle and efforta history of strong determined men and deeds of 'daring. No section of the American Republic is more replete with the many things that illustrate the magnificent qualities of the AngloSaxon than is Arizona. The men that blazed the trails in tills Territory, who eadured the hardships and clangers, inseparable from pioneer life; who planted the banner of civilization on mountain and in valley, and with rifle in hand maintained its supremacy, Avere a type of men who hated sham, loved tneir country, revered the Deity, and were always on the firing line ready to battle for right and justice. The old towns of Arizona remind us of these men and days long since pastcall back the stormy period in our history when civilizatioh hung in the balance; when the rode at will on mountain, mesa and valley.

But the AngloSaxon was here to remain; he was here to build a home for his loved ones; he was here not to surrender, but to conquer, and the hundreds of unmarked graves on mountain and in valley tell of the fierce struggles and glorious manhood of these sterl ing old. characters that surrendered their lives that Arizona might find a place-on the map of the republic. Like the moving pictures on the canvas these early scenes passed rapidly through our mind as we visited the old town of Florence, hard by the sand dunes of the Gila, situated between picturesque mountain ranges and overlooking the beautiful Casa Grande valley an expanse of land that is munificent in extend ana unrivaled in beauty and fertility. Florence dates away back to the early days. It was a prosperous, thriving city when Phcenix was a small village.

The Silver King, one of the world, is located near this old town; and when silver was being mined. with profit, Florence was an exceedingly prosperous city. But the old-town is taking on new life. It is situated in one of the finest valleys on. the continent, and when the water problem is solved, which it will soon be, the town will again become one the prosperous communities of our Territory.

Many old timers reside in that locality, and every one of them has his 'shoulder to the wheel pushing for a better, greater and more prosperous Florence. The Democrat joins-these men. in to develop their magnificent lands. To tilts end-steps are now beinc, taken to consolidate all the inarests and move forward to success.Democrat. 111...

ON A BIG SCALE. The Way a Grand Canyon Placer Mine is Being Operated. The operations of the Lee's Ferry Placer Mining Company near Lee's ferry on the Colorado river in the exteme edge of Arizona are far more extensive than generally appreciated. The company is spending about $5CO3000 in putting in machinery for working placer ground of known richness in probably the most remote section. of the Southwest, the most available railroad tation being Flagstaff, 150' miles distant.

Down to the mouth of the little the Canyon of the Colorado is rich in placer gold. Lee's ferry owes its name to John D. Lee, chief of the Danites, who hid in the canyon for two years following the mountain Meadow Messcare. He is i known to have worked placerl diggings that returned richly in gold for the labor of only a few men, but the location of those bodies seems never to have been divulged to any one out side of his original party. Whether the modem company now working has struck the famous old John D.

Lee's diggings or not is a question. It is believed more likely that Lee found his nuggets in some side canyon in small Eye. CROPS GOOD IN SONORA. Notwithstanding" the reports that there will be but few crops harvested in Sonora on account of the little attention given farming on account of the political troubles, reports from various portions of the state where farming is the printipal vocation, state that the crops are fairly heavy. In the Sonora- river valley the wheat crop was good, as was also that in.

the various valleys in the northcentral and central portions of the state. southern Sonora the garbanzo crop was good and is at present being shipped, to the various markets. The railroad has been fairly busy recently moving the eropq. Sonora NCNVA. I NEA RING STATEHOOD.

Senate Committee Agrees ort Favorable Washington, June a- vote of 6 to 3 the senate committee on territories today agreed to report favorable the house resolution for the admission of Arizona and New Mexico as states. The resolution was subjectd. to two unimportant amendments, one at the instance of representatives of New Mexico, changing the manner of voting on the proposition. to make the constitution of that state easier of A motion to eliminate Arizona from the bill was made by Senator Nelson, on'the ground that the constifution- adopted by the people of that territory discriminated against the Mei-. ican element of the population; but.was defeated.

Delegate Cameron's suggestion for an amendment to the Arizona constitution so as to eliminate the provision for the recall of judges, failed to receive any consideration. The suggestion was regarded as beyond the power of the commit- tee. If the senate accepts the resolution and it becomes a law, tire people of the two territories will be assured of statehood. The resubmission of portions of the two constitutions is intended only to give the voters another opportunity to say whether in the case of Arizona they desire the' right to recall their judge's, and in that of New Mexico, if they are satisfied with the -strict provisions against amendments. It is provided that whatever the vote, the constitutions shall become effective.

Doherfy Completes Yearly Of great interest and greater satisfactory to the citizens and taxpayers of Santa Cruz county is the story of shown by the figures of the original assessment roll just finished by County Assessor A.

A. Doherty. The total assessed valuation of all property in the county for the 3-ear 1011 is being an increase of over that of last year. This increase is in part due to the increase in assessed valuation of the New Mexico and Ari-, zona railroad (the S. P.

DensonNogales road) from $6,500 to $9,500 per mile. The Calabasas cut off to Tucson 24 miles in length was not included in the assessment roll, it being exempt from taxation for ten years. Nogales shows an increase of $127,000 in improvements in real estate. The only decrease shown is in cattle, which shows a shortage of about twenty-five per due to the dry season of 1910. The territorial and county tax rate for last year -was which figure will probably be lowered at least forty cents thisyear making the rate two dollars and eighty cents, comparing.

favorably with any county in the territory, assessment having been made on a fifty per cent, basis. .110 6. HER LOYALTY. A man lying at the point of death called his wife to his bedside and said: "I am about to leave you forever; give me, therefore, dne last proof of your affection and fidelity. In my desk you will find a crimson candle, which has, been blessed by the high priest and which has a peculiar mythical significance.

Swear to me that while it is in existence you will not remarry." The woman. swore and the man died. At the funeral tbe woman stood at the head of the bier, holding. a lighted crimson candle till it was wasted entirely away. 0 4..
