Valuable DIscOvery-Murder for
 Jumping a Mining CIaim--Im-
 prOvelnent in Florence.
 FLORENCE, February 14.-An- other valuable discovery made in the Globe District extension of Champion mine owned by Clymer and Wilson, has turned up after much searching for. The pro- spects for this district are good and miners are looking pleasant with bright anticipations of reap ing @ rich reward for their pre- sent trials and tribulations. The Silver King is showing up we'll.
 Burns, owner of the Sherman mine, shot and killed Jones, of Silver City, a few days ago, for jumping his claim. Burns is now in town under arrest. Trial to- morrow.
 The town of Florence is now one of the best located and most picturesque places in Arizona. Strangers acquainted with it two years ago could scarcely realize that it was once the little one horse town it appeared then. Col. Ruggles deserves high praise for the enterprise he has shown in making the place look like the home of white folks.
 Burns Round Over to the District

 FLORENCE, February 16.-After a preliminary examination before Justice RnggIes, Burns, who kill ed Jones, of Silver City, was bound over in the sum of $1, ,500 to appear at the District Court.
 A silver lode discovered last week by BeardSly, assays S7S0. Another mine lately discovered, called "Lazy Bob." and owned by Dan Bryant, figures to eleven thousand and ninety three dollars per ton. Both are in the Globe District. These are assayer's fig ureS.

cal position of Yuma is just about right.
 As to navigation, we have the benefit of all that there is in the Territory. Situated about 18O miles from the Gulf of California, this is the Port of Entry of the Territory. Then we have 400 miles of steamboat navigation above Yuma, BOG of which is now regularly piled by the c. s. N. Company, which takes them tc Hardyville, as high up the river as the present trade and travel will require. But the river is na vigable as high as Colville, one hundred miles above Hardyville to which point the Southern Utah Railroad is now being push ed with great vigor, and it look: as though that will be the frs railroad connection with the Go IoradO River. Our geogrophica position is good.

0utlawry in New Mexico.

Last week we published an ac- count of the destruction of the Nea0s and Press office of Cimmar- ron, N. M. We have since re- ceived the following particulars from Santa Fe. They must have a fine state of things in that Terri tory. And just think that they are now applying to Congress for a State Government!
 This band of outlaws are mostly fugativeS from justice and persons under indictment in this territory, who have been melted to these deeds of murder and general law lessness, it is supposed, by pOliti- cal enemies of Mir. Elkins, who through envy and jealously of him, desired to defeat his effort to have New Mexico admitted as state. AS large majority of the people of this county are laW.abid- ing but have got to fight these outlaws, it was on the ground of their lawlessness that the IegisIa- ture, which has just adjourned, on the last day of it's session and almost unanimously passed bill attaching COlfaX county for judi cial purposes to Tower county. It was alleged that not witness in COlfaX county would dare to testi fy, or grand juror to find bill against any of the perpetrators of these outrageS.

 Prospect of the Texas Pacific Bill
 Still Favorable.
 SAN FRANCISCO, February IT, An Associated Press dispatch of last evening, dated from Wash ing ton, says Colonel Thomas A. Scott has waited until to-day ex- pecting the final decision of the House Committee on the Texas and Pacific Railway bill. As has heretofore been stated the Sub- Committee decided to report in favor of the measure, and it was expected that the vote of the whole Committee would be taken today. They took up the bill this morning and decided to post pone the vote until Friday next as there were details that requir- ed to be perfected and a number of amendments were to be offered The indications are that the bill will pass the committee by large majority.

 The friends of the Texas Pacific look upon the situation as requir- ing earnest and steadfast work, and while not over sanguine, are still confident that the facts eli cited before committees will cOm- mend the justice and expediency of the measure to Congress, and then expect to he considered inn partially.

 Union Pacific Railroads to De-
 feat ScOtf's F8tlI--PrOspects for
 the Texas-Pacific Good.
 WASHINGTON, February I6.- The representatives of the Central and Union Pacific Railroads are working with deperate energy to defeat action on the bill to aid the Texas and Pacific Railroad. The lobby gathered here in the interest of the Monopoly line is the most formidable that has been seen in Washington within the last ten years. It includes several ex-United States Senators and COngressmen. It is no secret that money is relied upon as the chief agent to accomplish the de- feat of Scott's bill. The expenses of Huntington's retainers must reach an enormous figure. Every means of influencing Congress and public opinion through the press or otherwise that money will se- cure is being brought to bear. The Central Pacific agents admit that they regard the present cri sis as decisive. Ifthey succeed in destroying the attempt to obtain aid of the Government for the Texas Pacific road, they will in- trench themselves so securely withing the next year, that all

 NEW YORK, February 15.-Ply- mouth Church Advisory Council opened to-day.

 Texns Pacific Railroad Matters.
 NEW YORK, February 13.-A Washington special says that Scott's subsidy bill will have more difficulty in getting through the House Committee than had been supposed. It is now said that Mir. Thomas, of Maryland, has the casting vote, the Committee ex- cepting himself standing six to six. It can hardly be possible that Scott will fail to secure a fa- vorabIe report, but the bill does not, for some reason, receive the prompt action expected.
 It must be remembered how ever that the above report comes from source not friendly to the Texas Pacific road. The Presidents Testimony in the
 BabcOck Trial.
 NEW YORK, February 14.-A Washington Herald special says |: The Presidents testimony was not entirely satisfactory to Bab- cocks Counsel. Itisasserted they expected him to give a full ex- pIanation of the published teIe- grams, but he said only that the explanation made to him was satisfactory, without the indica- ti0n of what it was. The gist of his deposition was, that if Bab- cock was connected with irregu. larities at St. Louis he, the Pre- sident, didn't know it.

A full knowI- edge of the route, together with the cost of building is in posses sion of the Company, and urges that extraordinary efforts should be made to raise funds to com- plete the road at least as far as San BernardinO, and says there can be no doubt but that a large amount of capital could be raised by subscription along the line, as there is not a person on the whole line but what would be much benefited.

GEOGRAPHICAL POSITION OF
 YUMA.

OhohNNO AOA DOCCCOO SllIA 1O VI LII CLO centres of commerce, trade and intercourse, there can be nothing so important as geographical po- sitiOn. We do not mean that a town should necessarily be locat- ed in any particular latitude or longitude, fer those matters can not always be controlled in mak- tug settlements and establish ing marts upon this planet, but We mean that a town should be located with due regard to its accessibility from all parts of the country, and that ingress and egress shall be easy and cOnve- nient. Nobody will dispute this
 Some towns are located with care, with an eye to these facts, but probably most towns in new country are located by accident, without any regard to the future; that is, one man builds house, and another squats there and builds for the sake of neigh bOr- hood, and so on, until village springs up. But sometimes these locations happen to be in the right place.
 Such is peculiarly the case with Yuma. We have no idea that the first man who built a house here thought about the trade that was bound to centre at this point. Everything was wild then and the country was full of dangers. Fort Ynma was, and still is, on the opposite side of the river and there was some show for prOtec- tion. Thus the town commenced and has grown until it contains about thirteen hundred inhabi- tants, nearly all peaceable, law abiding citizens. But is so hap pened, that the location, accident ally Or otherwise, was very for tunate, for Yuma is to-day, really the door of the Territory. Here is the first port where steamers arrive from the Gulf and land their passengers and freight on United States soil. And from here the roads run in all directions without rock, hill or other bar rier, entirely unimpeded, and at all seasons of the year the heavy prairie schooners are running in every direction, carrying the ne- cessaries and luxuries of life to the people scattered all over our wide Territory. That is truly the peculiar and fortunate location of the town of Yuma.
 Our roads are the best to any point, whether it be to Prescott, Tucson, Phoenix, Wickenburg, Florence or anywhere else, Yuma offers the best starting point and the smOothest route. Even to those seeking Sonora, Chihuahua, Sinaloa or any of the Pacific Mex jean States, or persons travelling to or from New Mexico or Texas, Yuma offers the best routes, and through the finest climates.
 The amount of freight landed at Yuma by the c. $. N. Company, together with that which comes by land, is immense and constant ly increasing. And this with the passenger travel, diverging throughout all the veins and ar- teries of the Territory, where there is no snow, ice, sIop or cold weather, makes Yuma one of the finest geographical locations in the world. And then add to this if you will, the excellent health of this region. That of itself is priceless! The pure water we have to drink; the pure air we have to breathe. and the bound less freedom of the lungs in this glorious climate! Sheer if you will at our hot summers; repeat as often as you like the worn out story of the soldier coming back
