A Contemplated Political Chang e.

The question Of sevcring our politi-
cal connection with New Mexico is
strongly spoken of by the representa-
tive men Of our county, who regard
that an annexation of Grant county
with Arizona, would be for the better
and give as reasons for the change:
/. That legislation by " American -
members would be more liberal and
better suited to progressive commu-
nifty such as ours, because the interests
of Arizona generally and those of
Grant county are similar and are bet
ter understood by English speaking
Legislators, most Of whom are interest
ed in mining and mining enterprises.
? Because our county has been de
MED by New Mexico equal rcpresen-
tation IN the legislative assembly of
the Territory and is regarded by her
as mere appendage TO her body poll
tic, and because New Mexican legisla-
ton Is in the hands of those who are
not in sympathy with US, and for the
further reason that after repeated eff
forts to procure remedial legislation,
we have been denied redress and held
in a state Of vaSsalagc without hope OF
relief, and for these reasons our PEG.
pie have come to the deliberate and
settled determination not TO cease their
efforts in this respect until their politi
cal connections with New Mexico arc
irrcyOcably severed. If New Mexico
should lose her richest county she can
charge it to the dictatOrial and corrupt
spirit of few men in Santa Fe, who
have come to the conclusion that they
alone are the commonwealth, and have
the right to dictate the policy of the
Territory and direct her legislation in
their own selfish interests.
Our citizens should now take the in.
itiativc step, call a meeting, discuss
the matter, appoint a committee of cor
IrcSpondence and learn the views OF
leading citizens of Arizona, and also
take such other steps as may be neccs
lsary to cOnsummate the desired change

Mr.. KELToN STEVENS lately return
ed from a trip to Tulare Valley. He
reports the weather so warm there that
the bits had to be taken from the horses
mouths to keep the animals from being
severely burned The Thermometer
hanging in the shade indicated the
temperature at 1870 degrees Fab. There
IS no improbability about this story.
Metal heated to 100 will burn the hand
and an atmosphere at 100 can be en-
.dured without injury. But this bit Of
.Tulare summer at 100 degrees is enough
10 convince us that home by the
heaving sea is preferable to a resi-
.dence over there.-Santa Barbara Press.

SATURDAY,, SEPTEMBER2S. 1876.
Cane Presentation.

Gold Hill News of 9Th of August
contains the following: The proprie-
tor of this paper was made very happy,
last Saturday, by the the presentation
of beautiful cane. Major Downie,
the genial old California pioneer and
founder of Downieville, was the pre-
senter, and he did it in gallant Style.
Saws he: Brother bean-eater of the
old diggings; fellow flapjack, | rejoice
ito present to you this token-of my dis
tinguished consideration. l wrenched
it from its family clump on top of the
highest mountain which overshadows
.Downieville, with my own hands. l
have had it appropriately trimmed and
mounted, and here it is. a healthier
manZanita stick never grew on the
snow-peaked Sierra, and l hope you
may never have TO knock down with
it a worse or a better man than your
self ! present it to you on this your
centennial birthday, with the wish that
you may live to be another hundred
wears old, and continue as healthy as
YOU are now. The evergreen leaves OF
the manzanita are emblematlc of my
undyIng esteem and admiration, while
its bark clings as closely to it as my
heart clings warmly around you. May
you never need this stick to lean upon,
but keep it slowed away in corner in
case you should"
Mr.. Doten meekly bowed and res
pended as follows: Major, you do me
proud. | heartily reciprOcate the leaf
and bark business you refer to. May
the bark of our friendship never peel
of. and its leaves never Wither. My
estimation of you is higher than any
manZanita tree that ever grew. May
we both live till we want to die, and
then pass to a comfortable sphere where
the manZanita shall bloom and blossom
over our heads fOrevermOre. | accept
of this magnificent cane with much
qualification, and shall, in the next
issue OF the News, give two columns
of editorial in praise of yourself, Down
ieville and the good people of Nevada
county generally"
Then the Virginia Enterprise adds:
y dreadfully troubled and apprehen-
sive expression Immediately clouded
the genial cOuntenance of the old Ma
jor, noticing which Mr.. Doten kindly
'rescinded the editorial nfiiction men
toned, the foreman waived prOof-slipS
of both speeches, the printers gave
three cheers for the American flag, and
the devil burned a tin plate full of ink
by way of red fire The tableau was
very impressive.

Can Aliens Hold Mining Property:

The decision of Judge Cole, of Eu-
reka county, Nevada, affecting the
rights of aliens to hold mining ground
in the States and Territories of the
United States, is attracting a good
deal of attention here and in CalifOr-
MIA, and is likely to have marked eff
feet in England. Judge Cole held
that no alien could acquire any title to
mining ground in the United States
until such ground had been patented
to an American citizen; and that an
agreement between an alien and citI-
zen. by which the former is TO secure
through the latter a patent, cannot be
enforced in the courts, as it Is an eva
sion of the law. At about the same
time the Land Office in Washington,
decided that a mining claim, or por-
ton of a mining claim, sold to an
alien, cannot be patented until such
alien shall have taken out papers of
citizenship. The ruling is only modi-
fed by the supplement that when the
alien shall file his declaration of in
tention to become a citizen, his right
to hold the mining claim shall date
back to his purchase, and he may
thereupOn secure a patent for the
claim.
These decisions, if sustained, as they
probably will be, will have very dis
couraging effect upon the influx of
capital from foreign countries to our
mining districts This is a species of
protection " which does more harm
to those who are supposed to be pro
tected than to those who are not. Ev-
ery thousand dollars sent into the
country and used in developing its
mineral resources, gives employment
to workingmen, and creates an addi-
tional demand for supplies and mate
rails, and to that degree benefits the
State. The subject is one worthy the
attention of our miners and statesmen,
and the sooner it shall be settled by
the highest tribunal the beiter.-Vir-
ginia City Chronicle.

A NAUGHTY SToRy.-A wicked Vir-
ginian told Gold Hill News reporter
this story about certain banker who
fourishes upon the Comstock: An East
ern gentleman of wealth arrived some
time since and made large deposit at
the bank over which Mr.. Blank presides.
The stranger called every day or two and
put in or took out considerable sums.
The banker smiled upon his client, and
one day was moved to say in his cordial
way: "Mr. Smith. you seem to be q new
conner. I hope you'll not restrict our
intercourse to business merely. / should
be pleased to have you call at my house
and make the acquaintance of my wife
and family" I'd be delighted I'm
sure" answered Mr.. Smith. "And as
tomorrow is Sunday we shonld be very
glad to see you at our church. The
minister is very talented man." All,
then you're member of the church"
Yes. sir; deacon. "Oh. said
Mr.. Smith, rapidly filling up a check.
Twill you be kind enough to cash that
MIR. Blank" Tue check called for Mr..
Smiths entire deposit:
The saying has been credited to a great
many people, but it was Father Taylor,
| Of Boston, who said: " When I get to
heaven. shall be surprised at three
things; drst. to find certain people there
whom never expected to see; second,
not to fnd certain people there whom I
fully expected to see; and, third, to fnd
| myself there" He was a wonderful
preacher. but his life has never been sde-
| quatsly written. He was himself sailor
for many years, and when he described a
storm the old tars fairly interrupted him
with CALCULATIONS. His genius was born
Of bis love OF souls. and those who once
heard him will never forget his wonder
full utterances.
