WHAT HAVE YOU DONEs


BY GEORGE w. BUseAY.
The query now Il not
What values have you got
In hanks. or stocks, or in estate,
But what deeds hayeyou done,
In shadow or in sun,
To make the people good or greatf
Yon have reason why
You hold your head so high,
And stride in pomp along the street.
Can you show any one
The good that you have done
To make life sunny, fair and sweet.
Ship-loads OF costly wares,
Bank stocks and railroad shares,
Are proper things to have and hold;
But he has little won
Who little else has done
But gather greenbacks, stocks and gold.
You sit at ease and drink;
You sleep; but do you think
or any mortal save yourself!
Since life with you begun.
What have you ever done
To make men better with your pelf?
Do you assist the poor,
Or drive them from your door,
When panics pinch with want and cold.
Can any mothers son
Thank Won for what you've done
TO aid him WIN hCNlce anu golu'
You cannot always live;
Now is the time to give.
And let your heart pulse in your palms;
Heaven smiles on every one
Whose deeds discreetly done
Give added blessings to their aims.
Rags In the wind that flies,
Pale faces, hollow eyes,
And the unworking multitude
Appeal to every one,
And ask what have Won done
To feed the hungry, clothe the nude!
Streets filed with the untaught,
Foreheads unlit with thought,
Mouths full of speech, base and profane,
Might shame at noon the sun.
Alasi what have we done
To wash away the scathing stains
May benedictions fall
From Heavens starry wall
On those who lift the trodden down."
And when LIES race Is run,
May they all hear, =" Well done,
Thou good and faithful, take the Crown

Bryant has made more money than
any poet that ever lived. II has, how
ever, not been the product Of his muse
but of his newspaper. To this Is to be
added the fact that he is Of simple hab
its and cannot but be moderate In gen.
eral expenses. He Is estimated TO be
worth from 100000 up to $500, 900,
which is certainly doing very well.

Local Mining Work.

Mining activity continues noticeable. D. c. Thompson is in full charge of the Gro Blanco, with his family at the works.
 P. Lazarus informs us that the company, mentioned some weeks ago in THE CITI- ZEN, has kept three men at work in Canon del Gro, washing with rockers, and that they are making from five to six dollars per day to the man. A lot of the gold will be brought in to-day.
 c. O. Brown lately returned from the Orc Blanco, and on Thursday he and K. NJ. Pearce started for the Quacharty and other mines out that way. David Shultes was here early in the week. He says the great drawback to his work on the Qua charity, is the want of water, but that he is determined to remedy that by tindingit. His well is down siXty-siX feet, and he regards the prospect good enough to go ahead on it. He found a we'll twenty miles south ot Maricopa Wells which was dug some years ago, when it was Tn con- temptation to shorten the stage route by a direct road from Gila Bend 10 Picacho. He thinks it better, however, to dig and get water nearer than this well to the works He does not abate farthing in his es- innate of the richness of the ore ot the Quacharty.
 Judge McCarty and D. A. Bennett re- tured, since our last paper was printed, from the Ostrich gold mine near the Gro Blanco. Work is going on there, but the Judge thinks more development ought to have been shown for the labor bestow- ed. It is nothing new to hear of much hard labor being practically thrown away by bad judgment in the manner of it's application.
 Samuel Hughes, R. N. Leatherwood and others have workmen engaged on one of their mines In Montezuma district.
 L. J. F. Iaeger of Yuma, and Hill De- Armitt of Florence, arrived here on We'd nesday, and left for their mines to which they are getting patents. The mines lie southwest of Tucson and their locality has been fully described in advertise ments in THE CITIZEN.
 It will be seen by quotation from Min ing Life, that the new and costly smelting furnaces of the Coronado company at Clifton, has been completed and fires put under them. That district is the scene of the largest mining operation in Ari- Zona.

ed from the Rio Grande valley early this week, where they have been spending a few weeks and indulging in the excellent fruits grown there In abundance. We thank them for some beautiful and luscious apples. The eating of them impelS us to again say that the same kind might as well be grown right before our doors in the Santa Cruz valley, and the producers rich ly rewarded for their labor. Enough could easily be grown here to supply the people with green and dried fruit, and thereby re- tain thousands of dollars among us which are annually sent abroad therefor. Will not some of our farmers abandon the al- most profitless growth of grain and en- gage in growing fruit?

New mark & Co.,, San Francisco. MT. Lazarus informs us that if it were not for teams of his own, he could not purchase these arti- cles, because thus far all teamsters have refused to take such freight for him. Of course teamsters have right to refuse any or all kinds of freight, but it would be surely encouraging business in their line to carry even unsavory merchandise The wool business ought to have all possible encouragement, and MT.

OFTEN we get "hauled over the coals" for not publishing birth, marriage and obituary notices. If people who know of these occurrences would spend as much time In reporting such items to us in sea- son for publication, as they do ;a lectur- ing us for apparent neglect, the trouble would soon disappear. It is our wish to publish notice, embracing the important data Of every birth, marriage and death, and will do so if the facts are reasonably accessible to us. There are few exact facts necessary in each case, else the nO- tice is useless, and often these facts are too difficult for us to hunt up, and not be- ing furnished, any publication is omitted.
