Mining Laws.

Notwithstanding the frequent pubhca' ton in nearly every newspaper in the mining sections of all United States min ing laws and regulations under them, there is still much confusion on the sub- Ject. We hear there are 8 lot of miners prospecting in Aravaipa canyon, and that they are in doubt as to how to proceed in making locations and records thereof. The United States laws and regulations together are very explicit and not difficult to understand. The miners can meet and pass any Otherlaws and regulations not in conflict with those of the United States. They can fixthe boundaries of the district, choose a local yecorder, limit the width of claims, but not to less than twenty-five feet nor more than three hundred on each side of the vein, and many other acts of importance to holders of mining property. They may do much to prevent men from holding ground year after year without doing work of any account When not in conflict with thelaws and regulations en- acted and made by the general govern Inent, all local laws and rules of miners are enforced by the United States. Each mining district may easily procure a copy of the United States laws and regulations and by having them on file with the local recorder or other designated officer they may be readily consulted by any locator, or by the miners generally, and all hands be governed accordingly.

Postal Matters.

There is no other branch Of government service which so constantly concerns the people generally and in all parts of the nation, as the postal, hence the following is of interest to our readers:
 WASHINGTON, November ll-Post- master-General Jewell is engaged in the preparation of his annual report. It had been stated that he is opposed to the proposed Postal Telegraph system. This assertion is premature, as he has not determined what position he will take on the subject. He says the system has sue ceeded i'll other countries, but there are circumstances which make the acquisition of established private lines a matter Of doubtful wisdom, and the construction of new ones would be unadvisablc As to the subject of Postal Savings Bank, he does not favor such an aggressive move ment on the banking and financial instl- tutions of the people. The Postmaster General Is evidently amazed at the eX- penditurc of S32 900, 900 against receipts of S23, 000,000 this year. He will recOm- mend either retrcnchmcnt in the eX- penses or an increase in postage. He thinks there are eXtravaganceS which he will endeavor to suggest comedies for. He does not advocate higher rates of postage, but he Goes think that if it be necessary to make up large discrepancies at present existing, such an increase in rates would be preferable, as the cost of transportation is cosntantlY increasing.

The sonora and ArizOna Railway.

IL will be remembered that couple o1 months ago, James c. TrRman and D. B. Blair passed through Tucson from visit to the State of Sonora in connection with this railway. MT. Truman arrived in New York late in Septem Der, and October 3l, he advised us that the parties in interest had sent an agent to the City of Mexico to look after the approval of the conces- sion made by Sonora, which was then pending before the Mexican Congress.
 From another source we learn that D. B. Blair of San Francisco is the agent sent. and that he left the latter city October Il and went via New York. He had arrang- cd everything satisfactorily with all inter- -ested parties in San Francisco and expect cd to do the same with those in New York and take with him full power and means 10 secure-if possible to secure-the cOnfir- nation of the Sonora grant in aid of the proposed railway. If confirmed, there will be no hesitancy in the construction Ut the road, and the Supreme Government ol Mexico will help itself as well as Sonora and Arizona by the act sought so earnest ly by Sonora.

THE most remarkable growth Of olive trees yet recorded in southern California is that of the trees on MT. c. P. Taggart's place in the eastern part of this city. The cuttings were set out only three years ago, and the trees are in bearing to-day. We have on our desk handful of full-ripe olives, gathered and brought down town by MT. Taggart yesterday.
 The above is from q late number of The San Diego Daily Union. The same early growth might've believe-be had in this valley, if some one would only plant the cuttings. And not only olives in three years. but other fruits in abundance. All kinds of berries ought to be grown here, and they would doubtless be produced the first year after planting. Is it possible that our people will live on here indefinitely without producing fruits? Fruit would bring more cash for the outlay of labor and money than anything now grown in Pima county.

DR. B. SEMIG, quite generally known in Arizona and especially in Tucson, as an acting assistant surgeon in the army, has recently passed successful medical examination and been promoted to be an Assistant surgeon, with a view to his being placed on the retired List. He is quite a young man, but lost leg in the discharge of his duties as a surgeon in the Modoc war. We have noticed for over year a movement to secure his promotion and retirement. We have sno doubt but the Doctor would prefer his limb restored than to be a.retired assistant surgeon, but the latter will be a substantial comfort to him all his life.

THERE is some talk of amending the act of Congress relating to growing timber , upon treeless plains. The object is to in. duce men of means at distance from the lands toplant- and cultivate trees on them. Almost any measure that would effect the , object, would be justitable, and some budding statesman ambitious to win cer- tain fame, can do it by perfecting and securing the passage of bill that will induce people to grow timber upon the vast and treeless plains Of the country.

PUENIX, November 27.-A number of our prominent citizens celebrated thank S. giving in the good old New England style. A magnificent dinner was served by Mir. Whitlow last evening of which the nation 'al thanksgiving turkey formed an impOr- tant feature; otherwise the day passed very quietly and nothing would indicate the celebration of national holiday.
 The river, which has been very high ow- ing to the late rains, is again fordable and roads are reported in good condition.
 YUMA, November 27.-Weather here is again delightful. No wind this morning.
 Thanksgiving was observed here yester- day by most of the business places being closed; also work was suspended at the quaI terraster'S depot. A few fist fights were reported but nothing o1 a serious na- ture.
