Sonora Matters.

We have Guaymas advices to April fourth.
 Nothing of special importance has lately been developed in public affairs. The projectors of the Sonora and Ari- zona railway have their engineers out making & reconnaissance of the route and ought ere this to have arrived in Tucson.
 Apache raids in the northeast of So- nora during March were severe and a number of persons were killed. NIT. Hepburn who recently purchased the Pinos Altos mine near the line be- tween Sonora and Chihuahua, has fifty tons of mining machinery On the Mon tana due at Guaymas on the eighth, but the Apache hOstilities will inter- fere with the forwarding and cree ton of the machinery. 4 few weeks ago when MT. W. M. Keer, partner of NIT. Heburn, was en route to the mine, he and party were attacked and robbed of s1O.OOO. These parties represent English and Scottish capital and are also men of capacity for mining. But money and fitness can avail nothing in with the hostile Apache

Senatorial Friends Of tne Ter
 ritOTfes.

In deficiency bill passed by the House and sent to the Senate. WAS an
 item of twenty thousand dollars for several purposes, one of which was
 to defray expenses of sending clerks
 or agents to ferret out and bring to
 punishment trespassers upon the pub
 lie lands Alter discussing this parti- cular item a considerable sbare of four days, the Senate by a vO.e of forty-two yeas to four nays added this proviso:
 And provide further. That where wood and timber lands in the Ter. ritOries of the United States are not surveyed and offered tor sale in proper subsidivisiOns, convenient of access. no money herein appropriated shall be used 10 collect any charge for wood or timber cut on the public lands in the Territories If the United States for the use of actual settlers in the Territories, and not for export from the Territories of the United States where the timber grew: And provided further. That in the event that any timber cut on the public lands shall be exported from the Territories of the United States it shall be liable To seiZure by United States authority wherever found.
 The Senators voting aye were: Al lisOn, Anthony, Armstrong, Bailey, Beck Blaine, Butler, Cameron of Pa. Chafee, Christiancy, Coke. ConoYer. Dawes, Dennis, Dorsey, Eaton. Eustis. Garland, Gordon, Grover, Hamlin. liar ris, Hereford, Ingalls,, Jones of Nevada. kirkwOOd, Lamar, Matthews, Maxev, McCreery, McMillan, Meuimon, Nit chell, Merrill. Rollins. Sargent Sauls- bury, Spencer, Teller, Whyte. Win dom, Withers.
 The four voting nay were. Bayard. Came-on of WincOnsin, Keruan and Wadleigh. Thirty Senators were ab- sent, but a majority of the full Senare voted for the important provision quoted
 It will be seen that this provision IS one in the special interest of the people of the Territories. There isl hardly doubt but the House will concur in this Senate amendment. and make t a law, much tO the reliet of the people who can only get timber from he unsurveyed lands, as is the case with very slight if any exceptions ! in Arizona; but the timber land ought to be surveyed and at once offered for sale, after which tresspassers or "iim- Der thieves ought to be prosecuted and punished.

An Acre Of SIIVer.


 One of the most remarkable mines in California Gulch, IS in leads three feet in thickness, the ore from which yields from 24O to 27O ounces of silver to the ton, and lies like a coal bank in a stratiicatOn of limestone, dipping about fifteen degrees. Two openings have been made at points 600 feet apart, and sufficient Ore is in sight to make millions of the dollars of our daddies.7 The owners have gone far enough to know that there is a full acre of the ore in the one solid body, and some conception may be formed of the amazing richness of this dis cOvery by a brief calculation of is dimensions \ cubic foot weighs TO pounds, and, as the ore lies, twelve cubic feet makes a ton. There are 43, ,560 square feet in an acre; and the acre Of ore, being three feet in thick ness, makes 130,6SO cubic feet, which. with twelve cubic feet 10 the ton, makes 10,9O0 tons, worth S2j0 per ton, or the enormous value in the aggregate of S2. 100000 The Crescent is another mine worked like a coal bed. the ore lying horizontally in the large room that has been opened, the roof being held up by heavy timbers with very stout caps and tugging-pOles. The ore breasts from a foot to three and four feet and occasionally very fine speci- meus of horn silver are fOu0d.-The Rocky Mountain Tourist

Poor ProspectOrs.

A contemporary in commenting or
 the subject of poor prospeciors, re
 minds the large class who regert
 "rich as a gold mine " in it's proverbIa
 acceptation that large expenses attend
 the opening of mine, digging and blasting through solid rock, making
 openings for working and ventilation
 When fully understood, no one will

 he will. Look at the cost of the open.
 ings and machinery on the C0mstock, the richest of the rich. Does any one think one individual could stand il So it is with the prospector. He finds the mines, and as a miner knows he cannot go into the earth and open up the mine on paying basis; he knows he must contend with hard rock. much timber, must open levels and air pas sages; he needs machinery to pump and hoist, and then, after his ore is un the dump, what has he! 4 lot of rock containing precious metal, with a lOt of base metals. This must go through Ia process of working that requires more machinery He has no bank ac- count, owes the tailor for his clothes. and the grocer for his grub, and must sort cut the best Of his rock aud sell 1t at sacrifice 10 keep him in daily bread. Is it not wise to sell his claim for few thousand dollars and return 10 hIs old home in the land of civiliza- tiOn? Yet how few do it. He cannot resist the love he has for the miners life, the charm of being away from all the works of man, alone win God and nature, delving into the mountain.
 Mining, like all other business, must be conducted with economy, and wants 8 practical miner at it's head. Nearly all the failures of Eastern investments have been caused by sending out some. friend or relation of some of the con- pany 10 take charge of the mines, who has not the slightest idea of how sil- yer and gold mines are found. let. alone how they should be worked. Theory is good, and practice is better, but theory and practice are above either alone. Let your metallurgical students go into the mines and there learn how 10 swing the pick, to drill, 10 blast, and to distinguish ore from barren rock; let them go into the field and become familiar with the practical part of mining life, and then less. money will be thrown away and squan- dered, and many valuable property. in place of being condemned, will bel made to yield many returns for the. money invested.

The Eans whata Silver Mountain

The Wana Whata Silver Mining Company is rapidly opening it's rich silver mine in Pinal District in this county. IL is situated about thirty miles from Florence to the northeast. The work on the main tunnel is pro gressing rapidly with all the men at work night and day that can be placed 10 advantage. The ore Is very promis- ing and assays running over 5000 per ton are frequent
 The work on the three shafts above the tunnel are running down into it is also going on vigorously and good ore Is taken from each of them. There is now a considerable amount of rich ore on the dumps ready to be taken 10 the stamp mill, which is in course Of cree ton on Queen Creek, about one mile from the mouth of the main tunnel All the machinery is on the ground Two or three weeks will suffice to com plete the mill for work
 The Pinal Mil and Mining Com pany are erecting this mil under contract with the Wana Wha'a Com pany to concentrate its ore. It is 8 j. stamp mill with capacity for 10-stamps The Wana Whata Company is also erecting 8 smelling furnace in connec- ton wi;h the nill for the reduction of its concentrated ore into bullion.
 4 well assorted store is supplying the establishments with all the requi- sites for business and comforts of life at reasonable prIces.
 All is progress, life and hustle. The superintendents, engineers, foreman, miners and all hands, are men who understand their business and mean business, and but a few weeks will elapse before the Wana What will show the world the realization of is rich promises which are in sight.
 The litigation which has just been finally and fully ended and concluded in favor of the Wana Whala, removes all obstacles in the way of the attain ment of speedy grand res1lts.
 The situation Of the mine itself is the most favorable for work. Shaft No. 3 is at an elevation of about five hundred feet above the main tunnel and that is some eight hundred feet above Queen Creek. IL is not proba~ ble that any water will ever trouble the. mine, and the down grade from the in tended cross tunnel to the mill is a gentle, even slope, reducing transpor- tation to a very cheap rate.
 The WebfOOt mine on the same lead is also progressing rapidly and rich ore has been struck in the tunnel and shaft
 Other rich mines clustering around the Wana Whata are opening their treasures to the world, and a constant canOnade is going on among the rocks and precipices, echoing and reveroer- ating along the mountain chains.
 Altogether the Wana Nbata Silver Mountain promises 10 be one of the big things of this world, and is rapid development is a matter of much i'm pOrtance to our mining section

GLOBE DISTRICT, April 1, 1878
 EDITOR CITIZEN.-Despite the mali cious reports made by the Pushbackel element or those employed by the bo nanZa kings of California to report ad versely on the future prospects of thi: camp, each days development zoe: to show conclusively that this section of Arizona is second 10 none in miner al wealth.
 The Byron & Bixby mine has been laying idle for some time past, the pro prietor being absent in San Francisco Some pretended experts say that thi: mine has been very much over-rated but the owners certainly have a large amount of good ore on the dumps. There are several mines on the ground owned by the Bixby Company and should two or three fail there will still be plenty left. No doubt where there are so many mines some will prove good while others will turn out bad. and because one fails, the whole camp should not be condemned. The devel. opments made thus far are only par iiaAiherefore we are not able to judge with any certainty what the future may have in store for Us.
 The principal mines on the quartzite hill are as follows: The Silver Era and Etna, owned by Messrs. Nilner & Watson. The Webster and Mountain View by Messrs. Wilson & Gibbons. The Julian and Chloride by Messrs. Buck < Hayes The Jackson and Nc Nelly by Whalen < Co, and the Sil- yer Prince and Fan. All the locations above named are yielding good ore ranging by assay from S1OO to 5000 per ton.
 Messrs. Watson & Milner have ship ped about sixteen tons or ore from the Era and Etna mines 10 the mill of Tid- well ( Go. at McMillen's Camp for re- ducuon, and the ore from the Era so far is yielding about S1OOO per ion, and that from the Etna about $500. MT Thomas Newland informed me to- day that the ore was being worked up 10 oyer 90 per cent of the assay. The Miami Mill has shut down, the well caved in, consequently they have no water, but the company are sinking and drifting for water now and will soon be able 10 start up again. They claim that the ore worked from the Miami mine cleaned up about SS0 per ton, which is not bad.
 All is quiet al ihe San Carlos. MT. Geo. H. Stevens has been succeeded as. trader at the agency by MT. R. Woods Eskiminzin, the head chief of the San Carlos Apaehes. proper, has expressed himself as desirous of severing his tri- bal relations and going to the San Pedro. settle on a piece of land and take advantage of the Homestead Act which is generally believed to be Q good token of permanent peace so. far as his band is concerned. The h. iians on the reservation are making extensive preparations this year for planting crops, and in so doing they. should be aided by government as much as possible and encouraged by the. agent, for the sooner they become self sustaining the better for all concerned
