IMPORTANCE OF AGRICULTURAL
DEVELOPMENT.

This is a subject on which we have fire.
quently treated, but we feel that its i'm
portance is such that it cannot be over
discussed. If We cannot become at least
partially self-supporting, so far as the
common articles of agricultural produc-
ton are concerned, we cannot expect that
permanencyin our social relations which
is prerequisite of general happiness
and contentment. A community made
up exclusively, or mainly, of specula-
tive, change-desiring population, is
scarcely entitled to be considered as
social organization. With such COM
munity the institutions of civilization are
respected, but not fostered, and moral OBJ
legations and social duties are only recog-
nized and performed so far as they affect
present exigencies. Is school-house or
a church to be constructed, or is public
enterprise suggested, looking to the
moral elevation or material advancement
of such community, the individual
members at once excuse liberality on the
ground that the social condition is wa
vering and unstable. wait" is the
universal expression, until we
know what the place will amount to-"
Now, this feeling OF distrust and dissat-
isfaction cannot fairly be attributed to
doubt as to the permanency Of our min
eral resources, for though such doubt
may exist abroad, it finds no place at
home-there is not one man in humid
red here who has the remotest fear that
the Phoebe silver mines will be exhaust
ed in this, or the next generation. The
truth is, social happiness and prosperity
cannot be fully realized by any commu-
nifty which lacks the natural facilities
for creating and promoting these bless
ings. 1t is strictly in accordance with
the logic Of natural law, if such an ex-
preston is admissible, that man, to be
contented with his home, must have at
hand or be surrounded by those natu-
raj advantages necessary to human sub
sistence. Hence it is that we view
as so transcendently important the
agricultural development of South
eastern Nevada. The miser's misery re-
suits from the fact that there are better
things in this world than gold and silver,
and that they are out Of his reach be-
cause he is 50 completely absorbed in the
latter that he cannot appreciate them.
Our tovn-homes will be homes of per-
nancy and contentment, when sur.
rounded by farm-homes of thrift and
beauty, and not before. Be the mines
ever so productive, stability and lack of
confidence will characterize us as COM
munity as long as we look to the Salt
Lake basin and the valleys of the Sacra-
mento for the common luxuries and nec-
essaries OF life. But, fortunately, the
extent of our agricultural resources, and
the facilities Of their development, though
limited, compared with other regions, are
sufficient, and the best service citizens
can render the public is TO engage in the
culture of the soil, or encourage other;
to do so.

The LOGIC OF FAcrs.-An anti-subsidy
man in Montana thus puts one of his
arguments against hopelessly involving
the Territory in debt to secure a railroad
II repeat, Mr.. Editor, there is no cause
of dependency. Even as she is, Mon
tana is an infant Hercules in his cradle.
We have great leads of gold. silver, and
copper. Let their owners 20 down upon
them and prove them to be valuable.
When this is done capital will invest in
them; until this is done forty railroads
would not effect single sale. Capital
will not invest in wildcat quartz. Men
of capital are generally men of brains.
Prove your mines to be valuable and cap
ital will invest, whether you have a rail-
road or not Pioche-three hundred
miles from any RAILROADS. the liveli-
est quartz camp in the country. The
same was true of Nevada in 1865, al.
though hundred of miles from any rail.

JOHN II. RUBY, Baptist clergyman of
unusual zeal, and well-known as such
throughout California, has run away from
an estimable wife and his San Francisco
congregation, to enjoy the illicit and dis
gushing love of notorious prostitute.
He had formerly been an actor of local
celebrity. He coolly wrote back a note
to his wife in his flight, referring her to
an attorney through whom, at small ex-
pense, she could get a divorce.

The Salt Lake Tribune says the pros
poets are good for an expose of mining
frauds in district south, and which will
be apt to damage the reputation ~ of
those engaged in it. When the villainy
if such there isis unmasked, we will
do our share towards holding up the
authors to public execration. When we
give the world to understand that the
mining communities themselves view
such swindles as heinous crimes we shall
have much less difficulty in inducing the
investment of capital in the mountains
in honest enterprises.

ARIZONA MINERAL VEINS. - We were
favored with call yesterday from Mr..
Lallier, who has spent some months in
Arizona, and who brought in with him
some rich specimens Of silver ore col
lected on the Arizona and Sonora line.
The region from which the rock is taken
is remarkably rich in minerals Some of
the ore shown us by Mr.. Lallier is very
strongly charged with galena. Other
specimens show copper. The percentage
of silver is large, and there are considera-
bic traces of gold.-[ San Diego World.

TN ORE-AN IMPORTANT DIscoyERY.-
A leading scientist of this section is con-
fident that he has discovered world of
reka. At present we are not at liberty to
give particulars. further than make the
simple announcement Of the fact. The
gentleman in question has prospected for
tin all through Montana, Idaho, Oregon
and California, and therefore is pretty
well posted on the subject. He says that
in one place in idaho he found strong in
dications. but the thing would not pan
out satisfactorily. The great importance
of the discovery, even though the san
guine expectations of our informant
should not be more than half realized, is
readily inferred from the fact that the
United States Government has offered
standing bonus of 81, 900, 900 for the first
paying tin mine discovered in America.
Our informant feels certain that he will
bag that million, realize in addition
thereto q sum adequate to the purchase
of kingdom, and make Eureka the
wealthiest and most noted mining center
on the face of the globe. We shall give
full particulars just as soon as We get per-
mission from the diseoverer to do so. In
fact, it is very close shave if we have
not committed breach OF confidence in
giving to the public the foresoing.-[ Eu-
reka Sentinel.
1t is mistake about the Governmental
bonus of million dollars; but nothing
would do more towards building up East
ern Nevada than the discovery of extern
sive tin deposits, and the nation would
be benefited, as we are independent Of
foreign mineral productions in everything
except tin.
