last night states that in case Associate

DEATH OF HARRY MIGHLEs.

Few men have died on the Pacific Coas, more widely known or deeply regretted than Henry R. MigheIs, whose death oc. cured at Carson City, Nev., on the 27th- of May.
 Young Mighles made himself known and felt many years ago as the brilliant and sarcastic Local" of inc Orovi le Cal. Butte Record. and afterwards as editor and pro- prie'or f ihe Carson Appeal. He had his faults, us who has noti but they rather "leaned to virtue's siden While he has ever been popuiar with the masses, yet paradoxical as it may seem, his positive character has ever made political enemies enough during election times to defeat him m his aspirations for offices
 His nature was tiae beading of love of lhe bright and beautiful with keen Sense of the ridiculous and satiricai, in the indulgence of which he sometlmrs offended his best frierds, nut Was always ready to make amends
 "Early, bright. transient, his spirit spar. kled, was exhaled aad went to Heaven"

GET YOUR MONEY BACK.

The Lottery Company failed to perfect
 arrangements for the drawing advertised to come of June 4th. 1879, having, as we un, derstand 1t, only sold in Arizona and the whole United States about $6,OO0 worth of tickets. To have insured s drawing. sc. cording to the terms of the advertisement twelve thousand tickets should have been sold, amounting to $60,OaO. The company finding themselves S54,000 behind, con- cluded to postpone (for the first time) the drawing until August 4th, 1879. NJ. Gold water, whom we believe has acted in tse best faith in this lottery business, advertises to redeem tickets. which is certainly praise worthy, and we would most candidly advise those who hold tickets to send them in and get ihelr money back. "A bird in the hand IS worth two in the bush" etc, is very true saying. This much we have felt it our du'y to state in the premises. If We a;e srong, we stand ready .to be rectifed by those better posted.

The bill introduced by Delegate MeGm. nes, of Montana. making the various Terri. torial offices elective, strikes us as just about ! what Is needed in Arizona. We have al. ways thought the territory should be gov erned by people selected from among our
 citizens who have lived with us for years
 and hecome familiar with our wants. and
 understand properly the way territorial af-
 fairs should be administered. There are
 scores of intelligent. honest, bona fds An
 Zonans, who could intslligently perform the duties that devolve upon the Territorial of
 1ciais, and instead of our affairs being tri. lied with by people unfamiliar with our ways and desires, let them be entrusted to old and tried residents of the territory. who have its every interest at heart. It seems strange that people will come in clothed with the robes of office and try and domi. l neer over and rule a people who do not l want them, and who, if up before the peo. | pie seeking their suffrage for the very posi- lions they are holding through the power of President Hayes. would not receive 40 votes throughout the errltory. We are now speaking in the broad sense of the word and could make ome exceptions, as many of our federal 'fiice holders are good honest, capable ser ants, but we are opposed to being ruled y wholesale appointments from the White iouse at Washington.

AFTER SILVER.

 Kelly are both interested in the mrmmoth silver lead in Silver mountain and have gone out more particularly 10 examine this
 wonderful deposit of quartz, containing large per cent of silver. Silver mountain was discovered in 1865 by Geo. W. Barnard. Huff, Smith, Johnson and others. They continued 10 hold this property and do the necessary assessment work on the same for several years, until their band became sep arated, when it, like many other valuable mining properties, was allowed to % nv the board, anu leave il open to relocation, accordingly the present owners took 1t up and now have one of the most w0nuerful mining properties in the world. The man. moth. lead is traceable for distance of fiyemiles, IS over 100 feet wide, with aver age ore worth S20 to tie ton. No such deposit of ore is known to exist anywhere m the world, outside of Silver mountain. and If this lead does not, when It snail Iur nish ore for several thousand stamps, have a tendency to make silver as common as 1 iron, then silver will stand the test and al- l ways carry its regular market value.
