 EDITOR CITIZEN As l pen these lines the welcome gentle rain is batter
 ing on my humble roof, having com menced to fall last night at an early hour, and still continues al o'clock a. m, but it does not come down in torrents as the rains usually do in Arizona, therefore it IS a good one and
 will do a vast amount of good 10 both man and beast. The general health of the people is excellent. Developments l believe are satisfactory with some new discoveries which will give tone to our camp abroad despite the false reports of bogus experts whose sole purposes csc l. work for money regard less of truth or honor.
 The most important new strike was made short time since by Messrs. Copelin S Cox, and is located about half mile west of south from the Mexican mine owned by MT. Ceiling
 wood and others. The ore is a malable sulphide and is variOusly estimated at j from five to twenty-five thousand dol lars per ton, and is found in chispas. ] Scattered around permiscously in the surface dirt, they have several small veins on the location in which they
 have some very rich ore running as
 high as 1900 ounces per ton, and they
 also have a large spar vein similar to
 the McMillen mine, only not quite so large, which runs parallel to the small
 ones to which 1 referred and at no
 distant day, l thInk this location will
 prove equal to the famous StOnewau
 mine at McAIillen's. Such new and
 important discoveries as this in the very heart of our camp goes to prove conc.usively that our camp
 here is not yet prospected, and firm " believe that some of the most pro-
 ductive and valuable mines in this
 camp are yet to be discovered, and the future possibilities for no sechon on
 earth was never greater than for this 1, at the present time, and this fact, time
 and labor combined will prove at no
 very distant day. They have also made a rich strike in the Mexican
 mine, the ore body is said to be four feet wide and is estimated at $500 per
 ton, they are also taking out some fine ore from the Miami mine, having resumed work under the management of MT. Tucker, the former foreman.
 The Miami mill is running and turning out considerable bullion. It made the largest clean up last week yet made in Globe, the run was made on twenty-two tons of ore from the | Silver Era mine on the QuarZite noun tain, owned by Messrs. Milner & Wat
 son, the yield I understand was S43j per ton. The bullion was shipped by IL. J. Webster to San Francisco. Mir.
 Watson took his departure yesterday for a short tour to the Golden Gate
 city, where he will have a good and
 enjoyable time and then return to Arl-
 zona. What a glorious thing 1t is
 to be rich if It is only for few hours,
 and It must be very trying on the
 nerves indeed to make one grand leap from a cook to capitalist, but Globe
 has elevated several poor miners from
 actual wont to prominent brokers and capitalists on Montgomery street, in San Francisco, and furthermore she has the mineral wealth and natural re- sources here to elevate a great many
 more.
 Mir. Milner has gone to the Dos I Cabezas mountains to look at some . mines, he will return shortly and then resume his work on the Silver Era mine which is at present looking we'll
 Mir. J. A. Haskins is pushing the com pany's mill at Globe to completion. The news from McMillenville con.
 tinue favorable, they have the ma chinery in position on the Hannibal mine and rushing developments, and from it you may expect any day to l. hear of wonderful strike one that T will astonish the world.
 : Col. King 5. Woolsey, accompanied > by Judge Cox, from PheniS, paid Globe a visit last week, but his visi l was not of a political nature, he ha: T been upon Salt river looking at the \ salt springs where he now has force of men at work preparing to manu I facture salt, that much needed article e here, and the demand will increase l. for it soon as the mines are developed s and therefore 1 think tha. the enter | prise will be paying one. The Col s has been resident Tn Arizona fol
 about eighteen years, and has seer r hard times in the desperate struggle c in the interests of development anC s fertilization of this once wild and bar barous country. PIONEER. THE great case in trover of the gov o ernment against Prof. Hill, for Sl0O,
 900 for timber used from governmen
 land, was decided last Saturday after
 noon. It had occupied five days o % Judge Hallers court, and the prosecu h ton used every effort to win it, know
