Several Important Errors.

At the time detective Evans passed through Tucson with a prisoner for Yuma, this dispatch was sent tc Pres. cott, and perhaps elsewhere:
 TUCsoN, Sept. 1S.-Detective Evans brought in here on Monday last anoth. CT stage robber, an old offender and an American, whose name they deslre to keep from the public at present. He was one of the party who recently rob. bed the stage below Maricopa Wells and took bullion and horses. The bull lion was taken Go Silver City, cut up in small pieces and squandered cn the road. He was found near Camp Thomas, herding cattle. He has been engaged in numerous stage robeeries in the Territory, is thirty-six years old and has resided here eleven years. He will De taken to Yuma today by De tective Evans, provided he isn't lynch ed. He promises to peach on his pals, which may save his life. N.
 THE CITIZEN last week published an item in this connection which was simply the substance of the record in Justice Neugass' court On finding this dispatch in Prescott paper, we recognized the fact that attempts had been put forth 10 mislead the public, and for the first time made us begin to credit Jack Swilling's statement that he was made victim of reward hunt CTS. Let's be more specific:
 l. The name of the stage robber re- ferred to in the above dispatch appears in the court record in Tucson as J. s. Stout. His name is given out as Rhodes at Yuma.
 2. Sheriff Shibell says there is a man in Tucson who knows this same person was in Silver City, N. M., al the time of the said Maricopa stage rob bery. Deputy Sheriff Phy, of Marico- pa county, was over here last week, and says he long ago knew that Rhodes was one of the Wickenberg stage rob bers and was after him when here. Phy is also convinced that Swilling, Kirby and Monroe were innocent of the Wickenberg robbery.
 8. The reference to danger of lynch ing here was unfounded in fact, and has the appearance of an effort to ex- alt somebody.
 The further developments of this case, including the arrest of Swilling, Kirby and Monroe, will be awaited with anxiety by all men who abomi- nate the indiscrimmate arrest of men for crime. There can hardly be 8 blacker crime than the arrest and pun ishment-arrest being punishment--of innc cent persons. The zeal which is responsible for such arrests can we'll be dispensed with. Justice is slow, but usually certain.

Local Mining Development and In-
 dustry.

Several correspondents have s say today in our columns on these sub fleets, and Prof. Rickard presents the IlixIviation process in favorable light and he is competent by age and scien tific experience to exemplify his state ments by practical operations.
 | NIT. A. s. White recently resigned the superintendency of the San Xavier mines because of poor health, and Ben. Williams fills the vacancy. NIT. White is highly complimented for the work done. The shafts in the vein never showed more or better ore than now, and various parties estimate 900 tons pay ore taken from the shafts. The company is putting up new and better quarters at the mine, and report is current that the stock of the company is listed on the stock boards ID San Francisco.
 Much work is going on in the Ar ivaca district. The 20-stamp mill is in course of erection. Captain McCater ty is preparing to push development on some of the claims owned by the San Francisco company he represents.
 J. D. Andrews and Ben. Virgen are in from Orc Blanco, with rioh samples of ore from various locations, some of which are surely rich enough to war rant development.
 Messrs. AEmes, Arey aud Wilbur have gone to Altar to look at some mining property.
 Representatives of the Aztec and Toltec companies say they are making preparations for the construction Ui machinery. Prof. Magee says the Fol tee syndicate have mill-site selected on Sonoita creek, and will soon have it properly surveyed. The power to be used is water, with 8 turbine wheel. Tombstone reports are absolutely ex- citing, but with them come rumors of jumping claims. Jumping claims nev- CT did pay the jumpers and never will. It's 8 hazardous way of getting min ing property, and ought to be SO.
 D. B. Rae and others are, we are in formed, reducing ores in Mule Moun- tain district, with encouraging results.
 The Chiricahua miners are busily at work, with improving prospects.
 The certain advance of the railway eastward from Yuma is stimulating quite a number of very prudent people 10 take steps to acquire some mining clarms, and also to develope them. There aever before was so much work being done in mines of Pima county, nor nearly as good tone among the workmen and operators, as at this time.

CaIifornIa Mining District.

Few years ago the Chirlcahua noun tains were infested with hostile Apa ches; now with peaceful and thrifty stock-men and miners. On the 7th instant, another mining district was formed and bounded thus:
 Beginning at point on the south bank of Cave creek, due north of the most easterly point of the base of the hill, east of Leroy's mill-site at the Sulphur Spring, and running thence due south four miles; thence due west to the summit Of the Chiricshua noun tains thence northerly, along the sum. init of said mountains to the south line of tue Chiricahua mining district; thence easterly, along said south line to a point distant one mile east oi where said line crosses the wagon road passing up Turkey creek; thence southerly, in a direct line to the place of beginning.
 The United States mining law of May 10, 1872, was adopted with the usual rules about recording, amount of work, etc.

DELEGATE CANVASS.
Evidences of Voters Preferences for
 Mr. Stevens.

A Hayden's Ferry letter of the 18th says:
 "Mr. Stevens visited this valley a day or two since. He has called upon many citizens and has been welcomed and well received everywhere. He had many friends here and has made many more by tIis visit. The people here regard Blr. Davis attack regard ing school and other matters as un- founded. Mir. Stevens will receive a very large vote in this valley, above and below here. Woolsey's course in re- gard to. road building has so injured him that many of the thinking and well-to-do farmers will not support him. As for Campbell, we do not speak of him in connection with the election. He will receive no support in this section"
 September 22d, Phenix correspOn. dent, who is a prominent laboring man, with his hands and not alone with his mouth, says:
 Hand-shaking with Mir. Stevens was hardly concluded when candidate Davis arrived. Woolsey hall was at once engaged, that the candidates might discuss their issues and merits. Many people gathered in the evening. Davls was called forth and denounced the character and political standing of his opponents. His onslaught on MT. Stevens was severe, charging him with sectional favoritism as to mail service, being under church influence, and favoring division of the school fund. Mir. Stevens replied, and was re- ceived with cheer upon cheer. He successfully repelled all charges by Davis, by stating the truth, saying that he had never voted to divide the school fund; that since his advent in Con gress Mohave county mail service had been doubled; that he had obtained 5000 appropriation for the survey of the Colorado river, preparatory to get ting a large one for improvements to facilitate its navigation, and that his congressional record completely dis proved the charges of sectionalism or favoritism. A MT. Hays followed in q frothy speech in behalf of Davis. En- thusiasm was high for Stevens. After retiring, he was reused up and escorted through the streets amid the warmest demonstrations in his behalf by his many friends.
 "As for Woolsey, he is out of favor. His record for the past few years has added nothing to his glory as an h. dian fighter. Campbell has yet to be heard from"
 Such Campbell dispatches as have been sent from Verde and Grant are mere whistles to keep up courage, and will deceive nobody and make no votes. The Grant one is absUrdiy untruthful. MT. Stevens will be elected third time.

 For the week ending September 2Oth, Sl16,9OO in bullion was shipped out of Arizona through Yuma. Last week we noted shipment hence of S79, ,723 bullion; that figure included 25,OOO pounds of Silver King concentrations which we valued at that many dollars Returns of sales of that lot show that 1t realized at the rate of B, 700 per ton, or S1.S5 per pound. Therefore we can add $21, ,250 more to that weeks ship ment, making the total for the week ending September 18th, $l00,973. Even then, this does not include proceeds of over 2,00O pounds of Silver King mug gets, " which are melted at refinery, and from which we have had no returns they have usually realized $S or $9 per pound.

GEN. W. T. SHERMAN recently passed through Prescott, en route overland tc Yuma and San Francisco. The citi zens of Prescott very properly gave him hearty and creditable reception Hon. Thos. Fitch made an eloquent ad dress of welcome, and the General re piled in thankful expressions of satis faction at what he had witnessed. Said he would urge Congress 10 give aid to build & road over the Mogollon noun. iains, but doubted any success, and ad. vised the citizens, if they wanted a road, to themselves roll some of the rocks out of the way. Jenkins attend ed, and made report upon the dress es of the ladies.

TIE new volume of Compiled Laws" of Arizona, complete to date, is very Reat and substantial. The Compilation is the work of Gov. J. r. Hoyt, under legislative authority. IL contains about 700 pages. The ar- engagement of the laws, including all amendments, seems to be particularly we'll done, and the index is full and makes references easy A marginal index was partially prepared, but owing to a lack of funds, this ad- ditional convenience had to be omit ted. The Territory, however, has a volume of laws that will favefably compare with the best published not excepting the United States statutes. Secretary Gosper has recently sent number of volumes to various parties in Tucson, several of which look as if they had been bathed in salt or Gila river. But neither the compiler nor the Secretary are at fault in this re- gard.
