A private letter from Rockport informs
Us that Q vote was taken In Haason county,
on the 9th inst, upon the proposition to
consolidate Hanson and. Dawson counties,
under the "Bfewn bill,n wtththe following
result: Against consolidation. 86; forcon.
solidation,- 10; blank L. .Thia ssettles the
question so far as Hanson and DAWSON
counties are concerned. The Law provides
that in case there is a majority vote against
consolidation In either Of the two counties,
then the provisions of the consolidation act
shall have NJ effect In those two counties.
Hence 1t occurs that Hanson county and
DAWSON county stand as separate organ
izstions. The people Of Hanson county ex-
hibited on election day an opposition to
this measure not at all surprising, as they
have never been in harmony with the meas.
ure. It was forced upon them by their re-
preventative ia the legislature and its pro-
visions were generally obnoxious to the peo.

Hartford District.

Ed. Ochs returned Saturday from the Huachuca mountains where he has been 10 examine some of the great lodges in Ramsey's Canyon, Hartford District. The surface ore is copper and will yield from 30 to 60 per cent copper with enough silver to pay all expenses for working. Shafts from 1O to 30 feet have been sunk in some O, of the claims and in one instance the ore is running into gray carbonate bona fide Leadville ore. This of course makes all the adjacent owners happy and prices are rising correspondingly. MT. Ochs is interested in full claim with W. B. Scott and Lieut.. Ovcrton. Dick Gird also has some claims in the Hartford District and speaks conf dently of the great future of the Ram sey Canyon mines. This locality has an excellent climate with abundance of wood and water and nature seems to have furnished everything necessa- " to make it a permanent camp.

Deen Mlnina and its Effects.

The Belcher mine on the COmstock is now explored to q depth of 292O feet by actual work, and is the deepest in the United States. The questions of whether greater depth can be reached with safe and practical results, are re ceiving attention. With the SutrO tun- mel, the water as well as the ore may he brought to the surface, but the heat k becoming too great for human endur- ance. The temperature in some of the ComstOck mines ranges from 14O 10 163 degreeS--the extreme being sixty five above blood heat. No man can work in such degrees of heat, and un- less some means can be devised to re- duce these high temperatures in those mines, they cannot be worked th much greater depth, no matter how rich the ores may be. IL is give. out by those largely interested in the ComstocK. that the work of ano her year iS expected to solve he problem whether deeper mining can be done on that lode, and that naturally much anxiety is mani tested. Three thousand feet is an enor- nous depth to work under ground, and the expense attending il is also enormous.
 These facts are evidently directing the attention of many ComstOckers to other mining sections. Arizona will get her share of this attention. Already noted ComstOckers are here and more are soon coming. and what Is besr or all, they quite uniformly stay or return highly pleased, and make true and hence encouraging reports. Vim. NJ. Lent will soon he in Tucson to visit Tombstone and Patagonia, and he is king among mining operators and cap iialIStS. X few frauds may and doubt less will continue 10 be perpetrated at Ihe expense of and to the injury of mining in Arizona, but there is a so much solid merit in our mines that with two and perhaps three overland railways at an early dly. to make ac- cess and transportation quick, easy and cheap, there k the best foundation to- predict that in a very few wears more.

A MORNING spent Tn the Sierriias, ir
 the neighborhood of the Esperanza shows that Col. James. who superin
 tends there, already has small force
 of men at work, and is making preparations for a permanent camr
 and systematic operations. The Els
 peranza ledge or ledge>, are among the
 largest to be seen anywhere so far a, croppings go, and it seems probable that there must be a vast amount of mineral underneath. Prospecting holes here and there have uncovered consid. erable ore, and what iS intended to be the main shaft shows a rapidly i'm proving lode of decomposed carbon. .ates which crumble at a touch, and are shoveled out like ashes. The course of the lodges is from northeast tu southeast over low hills surrounded b, high mountains. The road to the camp by way Of San Xavier church and mine is good, with ihe exception of the last four miles where it follows a dry wash. As the camp is l3OO feet higher than Tucson, there is very perceptible difference in temperature. as one hears either place. Col. James went out taking Charlie Stuart with him, and also a wagon, a cook and a wagon load of provisions.

Some Facts from Globe City.


 The mining outlook IS growth: brighter and this district is now attract ing considerable attention and a grea many eastern men are coming here [, examine this truly wonderful minera belt. The Silver Nugget mine lately incorporated in New York is attracting great deal Of attention. This mine has elght shafts from 30 to 95 feet deep f The superintendent, D. G. Chilson, ha, fifteen men constantly at work grad ing mill site and making prepar atiOns 10 receive the mill, which vii be on the ground by the last of OCto Der and will be put in running order as rapidly as possible. Very rich orc has been struck in the b ttOm of the bottom of the 95 foot shaft; the ore body filling rhe bottom of the shaft NIT. ChilsOn has sacked and intends tC Shi0 several tons of very rich nugget ore 10 New York which will undoubt edly surprise the mining men of your city. This mine has tour thousand tons, by actual measurement, Of sec ond class ore on the dump ready for milling which will mill from sixty to eighty dollars per ton, and the pros pect for early dividends soon after the mill starts is very tlattering.
 The McMOrris mine joins the Silver Nugget on the north. This mine has five shafts from fifty to one hundred feet deep. These shafts have all been sunk on the ledge and all show good ore. The greater portion of the ore taken from this mine has been worked al the Miami and Isabella mills yield ing large profit to the owners of the property.
 The Buckeye mine. located within one mile of the Silver Nugget, is with out doubt the best developed property in the district. This mine has three shafts from 40 10 225 feet deep and one tunnel 22j feet. This tunnel strikes the ledge ninety five feet deep, cuiti z a body Of ore six feet wide averaging from seventy-tive to one hundred and fifty dollars per ton. There are a great lA'AuN NLliCI HiiliCS III itll~ ulSiElCl, duO among the first is the Mexican mine, which has been sold in Chicago and the company have ten-stamp mill on the road. Globe City, situated about the center of this mineral belt, has a population of over eight hundred reo- pie and iS growing steadily. Parties are now raising capital to build tele- graph line from this place to Florence. A. T. to connect with the |. $.

labor Etbics.

Should Socialism or Communism succeed it would produce a state of things in which no workman could live.
 Every step of the workman towards his own ideal of the most good with the least labor is and must be in the line of personal independence and in dividual rights in the possession of property. and SO of capital
 Each workman should get by his labor all that he honestly can; hence l would not suffer him 10 be cheated out of his own either by men of nc work or by a government that should set up a monopoly of all work.
 Labor k that eNertiOn Of mans pow CTS which adapts things to some want, or desire in man.
 A geologist has described coal as |" bottled sunshine Just SO capital is bottled labor.
 Capital is the stock of previous pro. duciion employing or usa5le for fur ther production.
 Hence capital is not only a constant friend of labor, but like the Siamese twins, capital and labor are bound to- gether by a vital ligament which i> their common life.
 IL is important To fix our minds on the point that the wrong of Commun. ism would not be against property alone but against what lies hack of th, property-againSt the work which ha- produced the property, and against the man who did the work and saved the proceeds of his own labor Dr Thompson, in Co The Workman"
