every precinct of this Territory, and to
address you all on matters of public in
terest; but now find must either forego
visiting Yuma and portions of Mohave
County, or neglect the eastern part of

If elected it is important that I be ac-
Quainted by actual observation with all
parts of this great Territory; therefore it
seems proper for me to now go where l
have never been, viz: to the eastern part
of Pima, Pinal and Yavapai Counties.
I trust the people of Yuma County will
accept my reason for not now visiting
them. If elected, pledge myself not to
neglect any of your interests.

Respectfully soliciting your support I
am,
Your obedient servant,

THE Gazette, published at Las Vegas,
toward which is now being pushed the
Kansas, Colorado 81 New Mexico Railroad
Gate A, T.; & S. F,) thus indicates that
roads approach to Arizona, The road
will not be thrown any to the eastward of
the meridian of the present terminus at
Trinidad. From there it comes south to
Las Vegas which is nearly a full degree
west OF Trinidad, and from here it will go
as near as may be directly southwest
through natural passes to the Gila. The
route is southwest all the time, and al
though the topography of the country
may cause it TO have southern direction
in places, it never bears to the east. 1t is
just as important however to go south as
west in order to reach the Southern Paci-

YUMA ARIZONA SATURDAY, OCTOBER 49, 1878.
TO Meet at Albuquerque. A

The Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico
Railroad company, late the Atchison, To-
peka and Santa FG, deserve credit for the
| enterprise, pluck and perseverance which
have carried that road forward in these
dull times nearly eight hltndred miles from
Atchison to Trinidad, in Southern Colora-
do. This road passes through some of the
finest districts in Eastern Kansas, from
Atchison to Topeka; thence trendlng
southwest it strikes the Arkansas, and fol-
lowing up the rich valley of that river to
Pueblo, in Eastern Colorado and is now
pushing forward from that point to reach
the San Juan mining district. The main
line, however, turns south at la Junta,
near Las Animas, and has just been COM
pleted to Trinidad, in Southeast Colorado.
Not lacking the sinews of war, it is now
Mexico, expecting to reach that point
early next spring and Albuquerque before
the close Of 1879. This last-named place
is about FIVE hundred miles from Fort
Yuma, on the Colorado river, the present
terminus Of the Southern Pacific Of Cali
fOrnia. It is well understood that the com
pany have contracted with Huntington
u Co. of the Southern Pacific to meet
them at Albuquerque, and thus complete
another Pacific railroad line from the Mis-
souri, river to San Francisco.-St. Louis

THE principal reason for fastening the
completion of the Southern Pacific Railroad
is not generally known to the public But
we can give it. The directors Of that
impOrtant railway corporation have finally
become convinced that the mining situa-
ton in Arizona is no longer a problem
The permanency of the ore deposits is an
assured TACT. No one has ever doubted
the richness of the great mines which have
been brought to the notice of the public.
The bullion shipments from these mines
left no room for doubt. But now the most
comDetent mining authorities on the Coast
have pronounced the Arizona ledges per
manent. This permanency not only as
sures the success OF the mines-it means
success for the most important railway
enterprise on the Coast We hazard the
prediction that within twelve months
Arizona will witness a mining revolution
of the most exiting character. Hitherto
prospectors have figured most prominently
in the development of Arizona. The rail-
road will bring capitalists to the 'front.'

IN a late number Of the San
Francisco Bulletin it is stated that
in Alaska have been found the
only deposits of anthracite coal
on the Pacific Coast. This is not
the case; immense beds Of it ex-
ist near the Yaqui river, Sonora,
and within 100 miles of GuaymaS.
This coal has been repeatedly ana
lyzed and proved to be a genuine
anthracite, free from sulphur. A
specimen of it is now in the SEN
TINEL office, and its character is
readily recognized by any ex-
perienced coal dealer or miner.
We have already published full
description and analysis of it.
These Sonora anthracite beds are
destined to play very important
part in the development of the
base metal mines of southeastern
Arizona. 4 railroad from Tucson
to GuaymaS is an affair of the
near future. Then there will be
brought together, at tide water
on a perfect harbor; lead and cop
per ores and anthracite coal; the
results Of such a combination are
not difficult to predict:

THE S. 2. r. r. Company has shown q
liberal spirit toward miners and prospect
Or5 on the California Desert. Every pos
sible assistance is given to prOspectors,
and every station has orders TO let them
have what water they need. Now that
cool weather is coming on this liberality
bids fair to bear fruit. Already we hear
of several prospecting parties being fitted
out to examine parts of the desert that
have not heretofore been prospected
owing to scarcity of water. Before Spring
we expect to hear of many newly discov-
cred mines out that way, which will give
the railroad big freights in return for a
little water and kindness.

Let voters at the polls silently turn
their backs upon the Democratic party
1t win be good for the country that the
Democratic party should be beaten. When
any party deliberately adandons all prn-
ciple, as the Democracy has done, it should
in turn be abandoned by the people.
This advice, coming from one of the
Oldest and strongest champions of Demo
cracy, is sufficient commentary upon
the party managers specious plea of
"reform."

EIght Dawning.

Our Arizona mail troubles had
got about as bad as they could
get. On. some routes no service
at all had been placed by contrac-
tors; on others the service was
performed irregularly and in such
manner as suited convenience Of
contractors; on others mails were
carried in a manner not contem-
plated by the Department; rob-
bers have been helping them
selves to mails whenever they
felt like it; bad schedules caused
delays on connecting routes; ig-
nOrant or careless postmasterS
were sending mails to any office
but the right one; the travel be-
tween Yuma and Prescott has
dwindled down to almost nothing
owing to the VillainOuS convey
anceS used for transporting mails
and passengers; the same trouble
existed on every route save that
between Yuma and Tucson; these
and other troubles have been
cinching Arizona for years. So
little attention had been paid to
complaints, and SO little prospect
seemed there to be of a remedy,
that many citizens had begun to
despair of a change. Knowing that
constant fall Of Water-drops will
wear the hardest stone, we have
kept up steady fire of CORES
pondence and of editorial, until,
at last, most of our grievances are
receiving attention; are now
being investigated by Special
Agent Truman, in person; and,
with their proposed remedies,
will be laid before the POStOffice
Department in such a way that
not even the most influential con-
tractor will be able to have them
pigeon-holed, as has been done
for the past four years. Major
Truman arrived here last Sunday
with a carpet-bag full of CORES
pondence and complaints referred
to him for investigation and cor
rectiOn. The SENTINEL has at
tackled Major Truman somewhat
savagely for not having come out

duty to have done SO. 1T appears
