SILVER KING.-From Col Boyle we gather the following items concerning the proposed incorporation of the Silver King mining Co. Reagan bonded hall the mine to Hamilton for $500, 900, Hamilton sold the bond to Cash, weller and others for an advance of S75,O00. The GashWeiler party propose to "stOck " the whole mine at twenty million dollars in 200, GOO shares of $10O, each, aId have already secured subscriptions for 100,0 ,000 shares { their half) at $7,50 per share, which is their bedrock price. This is at the rate of one and half millions for the whole property. Regent develop ments indicate that there is more than enough ore in sight to justify these figures.
 This programme is only delayed until receipt of final reports from MT. Janin and other experts now at the mine, and is of course sub. ject to the consent of C0l. Barney, who owns half the property: but we anticipate no objection on his part, a5 we learn that, in addition to what he already holds, he has subscribed to a part Of the Cash weller shares. This would give him control of the property and guarantee to stockholders an honest administration Of their af- fairs. Col. Boyle and friends have taken some of the shares, and as the Col. was at the mine only some five weeks ago, his know. ledge Of the property, backed by his long experience as 9 mining expert, satisfies us that the figur- es ar6 not placed too nigh. AS the new concern proposes to at once erect machinery and run the mine as a dividend paying property, we wish them all success.

little assistance with bonds. The Southern Pacific Company comes to us and says, Gentlemen, we know that you have country rich in mineral and other resour- ces, a country, which will in time afford a handsome business for 8 railroad, and we should like to do your carrying but we shall have 1 to build in your country without subsidy, without any of the assis- tance given to railroads on every other frontier. We do not ask you for a dollar ; but as several years must elapse before our road can be made to pay even running expenses, to say nothing of cost Of maintenance and interest on con- struction, and in view of the im- mediate availability to yourselves of your resources consequent on construction of our road we do ask, that you for few years im- pose no burdens on a property that pays us nothing, while it does benefit you at once and inn mensely." The granting of this request conforms to the custom of helping new enterprises it is right and proper, viewed from high moral grounds {; and as a question of business sagacity; it will prove the best investment Arizona ever made.
 Yuma county would be the first to bear the burden and to reap the benefits. The protection of rail road property would add some what to the expense of our county Government, but the road will en- nance the value of property ten- fold and bring in more people to bear the burden of taxation. We admit that the total of taxes will be larger, but claim that the rate of taxation will be smaller, and that we shall have more money to pay with. Is it easier to pay $5 on property worth $200, than to pay S10, on it when enhanced to a value of $2.00O?
 Gentlemen of the legislature, our mines will be as rich for the next twenty years without g rail road, as they have been fer the past twenty, and so will all cur natural resources, but they will bring us in no more money. Tn time a railroad would be built here 9citkcut assistance but in- stead of legislating for posterity by defeating this bill, let ns make a prosperous State for our children and let posterity legislate for it. self.
 Yuma county wants a railroad NOW, and is willing to give the reasonable assistance asked, in or der/to advance that end.

OUR LEGISLATORS.

We have until now abstained from comment or criticism on the course pursued by the representa- tives of this county now at Tue son, waiting to see how they would depOrt themselves.
 Hon. J. M. Redondo has secur- ed some good legislation and pav- ed the way fer more, ". g., bills regulating salary and fees of Dis. trict Attorneys, amending the law for incorporation of villages, to continue work on the Peniten- tiary &c. and his conittae has made good report on the pro- priety of acquiring new arms in place of the old ones now owned by the Territory.
 MT. Darlington has introduced bill amending the Jury law; not knowing what amendments he proposes we can not criticise he has had passed bill to reimburse Yuma County for expenses incGrr- ed in the care of Territorial Fri soners. This is good: it puts mo- ney in the County Treasury and enhances the value of old scrip. We can not learn that either of these gentlemen has consulted any of his constituents in regard to proposed legislation, though our councilman has been thought full enough to keep us all pretty well posted on legislation already effected.
 MT. RedOndo has already repre- sented this County several times, and always with credit to himself and advantage to his constituents, so that knowing him well, we all feel that our interests are safe in his hands; but MT. Darlington has never before represented us . il 3gfs'ctn~n and, though we k m equally vHI. still We q, feel pune confident :-

Prominent Republicans, both IN
and out of the Legislature, gave eX-
preston to their opinion, on Thurs
day, 18th, upon the scheme now
agreed upon OF settling the electoral
vote question. Their heads seem to
be more level, and their conceptions
of the situation clearer and more
worthy of statesmen, than those of
the national Legislature. They look
upon the compromise with feelings
of indignation. The correspondent
of the Leader says that Speaker
Grosvenor considers it step to-
ward Capitalization, and an abroga-
ton of the vote of the people. It,
Gov Young stamps it as an aban-
donment of the position heretofore

Parson Brownlow, in the Knox
vile Chronicle, believes that the
Democratic party has made more
surrenders in less time than any po-
litical party that ever existed in
this country. To say nothing of
the Appomattox surrender, it has
surrendered almost every principle
it has avowed since the war. 1t
surrendered on the question of the
constitutional amendments after a
hard fight against each one of them,
and then swore it was devoted to
the amendments. 1t declared it
would never submit to negroes tes-
tifying in courts, and to negro suf-
frage, but it did submit, except IN
certain buildozed districts in the
South. 1t planted itself squarely on
the platform of imitation, but after
noisy fight, subsided. 1t stubborn
ly insisted that they had carried
Colorado until after the October
election in Ohio and Indiana, and
then it surrendered. Before the
election it claimed one-half of the
Northern States for Tilden, but only
four of them voted that way, and it
surrendered. 1t claimed Wisconsin,
Oregon, South Carolina and Florida,
and surrendered them also. They
still feebly claim Louisiana, but
must surrender. They insisted on
the twenty-second joint rule, but
have surrendered on that. They
said they would have "Tilden or
blood" but that was so unpopular
with the people that they have
abandoned it.

The much talked of agreement for
counting the electoral votes by a
joint committee of the two houses of
Congress, takes the following form,
which our readers should not fail to
note. 1t makes the functions of the
President of the Senate purely min
isterial, and the two kinds of objec-
tions likely to be raised when the
certificates are opened are to be set
tied as follows: First, when only
one set of returns is presented from
a State any objection to their recep-
ton must be sustained by the con-
current vote of both houses. Fail
ing this, such returns must be count
ed as the vote of. the State. When
two sets are presented they are to
be Immediately referred to a COM
mission composed of five Senators,
five members of the House, four of
the Associate Justices of the Su-
preme Court-whose names are
eiven-and one other Justice selec-
ted by these four. The decision of
this tribunal of fifteen is to be sub
mitted at some time not fixed, to the
two houses assembled in joint ses
sion, and is to be final, unless both
houses agree to reject it. Excepting
the single element of deciding by
lot the composition of the Counting
Court, this plan is open to all the
objections which have been frequent
ly set forth. 1t imposes on the
Judges of the Supreme Court func
tions which they were never intend
ed to perform, and it relieves the
President of the Senate of duties
which the trainers of the Constitu-
ton deliberately and distinctly i'm
posed on him. 1t is merely device
to stave off the settlement of ques-
tions which can and ought to be de-
cided at once, and it renders possible
the occurrence of . Presidential in
terregnum which is to be deprecated.
Since the announcement of the agree
ment the people have taken the mat
ter into thought and conference, and
the consequence is a current of
strong opposition which congress
Will hardly care to brook.
