Bold Indian Outrage.

Last Tuesday, two Yuma Indi.
ans attempted to commit a rob-
berry at the store of Mr.. Lorette,
on Maiden Lane, when being re-
sisted, one of them drew a large
knife, and Mr.. Lorette in self
defense, shot them both with a
revolver. They then left, wound
ed-one of them very badly, and
probably did not get far. We are
glad that Mr.. Lorette shot them.
The only way to deal with these
red devils is to shoot them down.

Miner man. In our article of May

We merely spoke of that spoo-

stated that the railroad, after get.

off for the Needles. We said that
such a thing was geographical

have no quarrel with the editor
of the Miner, and don't wish tC

hope he is good man. he Ger
tainly keeps up his end of the

until we find something worthy
of a quarrel, something "worthy
of our steel" let US have peace.

do River. Twelve miles from
Aubrey is the Planet Copper Mine
worked most of the time since
1863, since which time 5000
tons of copper ore have been ship
ped from it to San Francisco.
These shipments have run from
$25 per ton to $65 per ton and will
average over $45 per ton. The
mine is half mile South of "Bill
Williams Fork" and is evidently
aside from the ancient mountain
above, or a deposit mine-at least
no regular ledge has yet been dis
covered. More or less float cop
per is found on the mountains
here for many miles around. At
Planet there are but few inhabi-
tants now, two small stores and
a blacksmith shop, and a few
dwelling houses, making up the
town.
From Planet to McCracken Hill
is Is miles North of East. The
hill or mountain is an isolated
spur some six miles long North
and South and two wide East and
West. The two locations known
as the McCracken mine are the
Senator" and "Alta,"' each l, 800
feet long. The vein runs nearly
North and South with a large
outcropping of spar, which can
easily be seen for more than ten
miles. Not q particle Of quartz has
yet been found in the mine, and
most of it is a black, free milling
ore, but masses and stratas of rich
carbonates are found all through
the mine at different points.
These locations were made by
Messrs. McCracken and Owen on
August 18th, 1874, and sometime
about year since the Senator
and Alta Consolidated Mining
Company" was organized and in
corporated in California, for the
purpose of working the mines
The old Greenwood mill, - miles
Northeast of here was purchased
and much work accomplished to
date. Much money has been ex.
pended without any good results,
but the work now under Super
intendent A. DeLand, Esq, is
being well done and with very
promising prospects. The work
now accomplished is as follows
Tunnels, 1,085 feet; shafts and
wines, COZ feet in the aggregate.
l have thoroughly explored the
mine and find it to be all and more
than I had expected to see. The
vein / find by actual measure
ment to be in no place less than
25 feet wide, and in places oUer ~
feet of solid mineral, and the foot
wall not get reached. Remember
that these are actual measurements.
The ore is now divided into three
classes. The first is the carbon
ate ore, which is shipped to San
Francisco and the average assays
of the four last shipments of 351
sacks since April 1st, ult., is
1927 IS per ton. The second class
ore is the fine gravelly ore work
ed at the Greenwood mill which
is now yielding an average of
about $50 per ton of bullion
9S5 fine. The mill is an old To-
stamp mill and can work 10 to II
tons per day of "a hours. The third
class of ore is the low grade, now
on the dump, which is saved for
further treatment. There is now
on the dump pile by estimate
1000 tons of this third class ore,
which assays from $45 to $40 per
ton. I took specimens from 20
different masses of the mineral
and made an assay from the mass,
which gave to-day S67 81 to the

THE Burlington Gazette reioiccs
over Democratic victory in Texas.
1t considers the election there rs the
first gun of the coming campaign.
Yes. it is highly probable that the
Gazette will have occasion 10 rejoice
very often. as the elections come off in
the States lately in rebellion. Birds
OF Il feather flock together" and they
rejoiee together. The elections. how.
ever. as they shall transpirc in the
States that did not rebel or take any
neutral position when treason >talkcd
defiantly in tho halls of Congress, will
show the Democratic party that their
rejoicing will be almost entirely con-
fined to the Southern States. Take
the city of New York ont Of the
count. with its tens of thousands of
vile, ignorant voters. and we don't
believe that the Democracy would
find a single opportunity 10 rejoice in
a victory for their side in one of the
old free States. Now that the late
rcbcllious States have been placed
back into the Union under such gem
erous terms as the world never wit
messed before under similar circum-
stances, they naturally rejoice with
their old friends north. who cxcrtcd
themselves TO bind the national gov
eminent hand and foot. TO prevent il
from crushing out rebellion. SO il is
that the Democratic party assumes
The same role that il played before
and at the time of the rebellion, viz j:
il slrrendcrs itself into the hands Of
The South, and labors TO put the ma
lion under the control of its late NOR
tal enemies: those who have assumed
feally TO the country only because
they could not destroy it.
