The weekly Arizona miner., 1872-07-06


 We used to be an admirer of the Union, of Sacramento, California, but can't say that we doat upon it now. The reason we have liked the Union was on account of it's excel lence as a ne@s paper. Once it was friendly to the white people of our Territory. Lately it has warred for the Apaches. Strange Yes, very strange! Can't account for the change. unless there be a cash account mixed up with it; and cash it must be, for didn't the bloody Union pat the Kibbe rangers of California on tue backs, and didn't Kibbes men kill Indians wherever they were found. Again, the bloody minded Union gave aid and comfort to Indian slayers in Nevada, Utah, Oregon and other places Yes, indeed, it did. Recollect how it pumped out praise of General Connor and his men. Oh, yes, all old Californians recollect its history upon the Indian question, and the recollection thereof puzzles them to ascertain tho cause of its idolatrous worship of to-day; its un- called for abuse of the white people of Ari- zona and its gloriication of their red and white tormentors. But, the Union is chang ing front again, on the Indian question, as it did, a short time ago, on the tariff, and may yet repent of its course in giving aid and comfort to murderous Indians and villainous whites like Colyer & Co.

Wallapai District

Wallapai District
 Tn a recent conversation with Gel. H. A. Bigelow and Thomas Cordis of this place, who arrived home, last week, from visiting the walapai Mining District and other points west of Prescott, we learned the fol- lowing news:
 Cerbat. Mineral Park, and Chloride.-three towns in WaIlapai District-were growing quite fast -
 The furnaces-one at Cerbat and the oth CT at Chloride--were in operation. MT. Ei- der-owner of the one at Cerbat-feit cer- tain of soon surmounting every obstacle and difficulty. His Cerro Gordo experience,-- while it had been of great use to hirn-had not given him sufficient knowledge to treat the strange ores encountered at Cerbat; but he was gradually learning their weak points. He is one of the most energetic nen on the Coast, and has forgotten that there is such a word as ssfail." 7;
 As soon as successful, Mir. Elder will go to Chloride, and do bis best to make MT. Coo ver's furnace at that place, success. The greatest diffculty-sofar-ha been how to get at the proper kind and proper quality of Aux to use. . e- ..
 Several mines in the District were yielding plenty of rich ore.
 Messrs. Smith Wheeler were employing . great many workmen. Money was getting quite plenty.
 Mir. Hardy's little mill, at Mineral Park, was crushing ore and making it pay well. Messrs. Pletz &. Boquest, of Cerbat, had the machinery for saw mill, on hand. They intend to erect and run said machinery in Wallapai Mountains.
 The District had been visited hy 8 very heavy fall of rain, and SIP 900 worth of 'ail- ings had been washed off from Mir. lIardy's mill.
 Storekecpers were driving brisk trades {; families were coming in, and houses were be- ing erected like magic.
 Beale Springs.
 Messrs. Bigelow and Cordis stopped at Camp Beale Springs, and were highly pleased with the place, which, they say, is one of the most comfortable military posts in the Terri tory, al owing to the ability of Capt. Thos. Byrne; it's commander, who has done exceed ingly we'll in his somewhat trying position. Several hundred Wallapai Indians were in; all apparently. well satisfied. More were out, trying to coax the Cervents to come in and make peace.
 The Post Trader. A. J. Moore, had just re- ceivcd a big stock of goods. A new and fine flag staff lay on the parade ground, ready to be raised on the Fourth. Corn. etc., were looking we'll at Fort Rock, on Walnut Creek. Williamson Valley and at other places. Finally, Mir. Bigelow killed bear, at a point in the road near Anvil Rock.
