THE BONANZA MINES.

A correspondent writing from San Fran
 CISCO to the New York World, in an ex-
 hays,iv article on the bonanza mines, has
 the following to say in regard to Arizona: | The North American Government opers
 the silver market for itself alone on un- favorable considerations, as along the Pa citic coast rev mines are not only being continually disco vered but also worked
 Tn's holds true especially of the Territory of Arizona. over which President Hayes
 has appointed the celebrated Path finoer Fremont as Governor. and this old proiectOr,
 who still cOncccts dtsIgUs as adventurous
 as those Of the year 4S, has succeeded in
 attracting the attention of some North American capitalists to this little-kBown corner of ;he Union, an attention which is still di ected merely tO the metallic Ge-
 pos'tt of the Territory. IL is true that the
 California mines had already attempted of late years 10 extract for themselves tine
 treasures of Arizona, but 10 do this sue cessluliy Tn that wateTless, thinly-settled country requires an amount of capital greatcr than they could command, and this is now in way to be supplied by Eastern men of means.
 Arizona, which will be traverscd this year from one end to the other by the Southern trans-cOntinenta railroad, will therefore figure prominently as metai- producing section, for it is rich, very rich even-but only ia silver. which by its sur prising abundance throws iato the shade all ihe other metals of the country. There are also other silver mines, the clearly int- mated richness of which has been revealed in Nevada, Utah and Colorado, the princi- pal gold-Droducing districts; in California also, Idaho, Oregon and Montana, not to re- count more recent ciscoveues of import ance

 represented oAcramt nto county in the State Senate has taken the stump for Perkins, on anti-monoply grounds. In speech at Humboldt Hall, San Francisco, ou the even ing oi the 9tlI, he said that he considered tLat the Democrats had been sold out by their leaders, and that the Honorable Bilks are mere ofiic4- seekers. He said that for fifteen years he had been a Democrat and was so still, but intended to vote for Geo. C. Perkins. lis position reminded him of the Indian who, when seen wandering in the woods and asked ii he Was lost, said. "No' Indian here; wigwari lost H.

Some of his Dem Ocratic friends did not like to see him SUD- porting Mr- Perkins; but if they diG not let him alone he would 70 over bodily to the Republican Party. He was sorry to see the Chronicle abuse his friend Perkins: but he knew that no one regA-del anyihIny that appeared in it. 1t is a paper" said the speaker, "that owes its reputation 10 jn- famous publications that has never scrupled to drag to light tue troubles of families, and make pubic priv te scandals to tra duce the far fame of the living, and black en the memory of the dead. It should be ihe last newspaper to set itself up as re- former. You migat as well expect pure water to flow from the poisoned spring as healthy opinions to come from the Chronicle.
