The rr-stdeDt's speech as Youngs.
town,

|
New YORK, Sept. h.-The
Presidents speech at Youngstown
is variously commented on. The
| World says: Better the dumbness
of Grant than such fluent nonsense
as Hayes yesterday talked. The
speech was probably Intended to
proptiate the victorious COnkling,
and prove to Stalwarte that the ad-
ministration has recanted oil its
heresIes. 1t may be doubted wheih-
er it will not anger them more than
Evarts's caustic dealing with the
diplomatic pretensions of Grants
admini stration at Toronto.
The Times says if Hayes seems
to dwell too infinitely on topics
which the war is believed to have
disposed of forever, it must be re-
membered that he merely takes up
what the vapquished Confederates
again force upon the attention of
the country.
The Tribune says: The address Of
Hayes is valuable contribution to
the political discussions of the
time. 1t is Il statement of existing
political issues so dispa ssionate
as to be entirely free from partisan
heat, and so logical as to be of ne
cessity, convincing. 1t is evident
that the President agrees with the
Republicans Of Massachusetts in
holding the Democratic party, not
the Republican, responsible for the
revival of the issues of war; the but
in whatever way the controversy
was reopened, here it is. The debate
which we had supposed had ended
at AppomattOX must be fought out
again, it seems, in Congress and at
the polls, and thus it is that We
witness this strange spectacle of
the President of the United States
being compelled to remind a large
number of his cOuntrymen of the
existence of war amendments to
the Constitution, and to warn the
South that the rights of the blacks
must be respected, and ASA ssina-
ton cease to be a feature of politi-
cal campaigns.

not generally known because of
unperformed mail-service. The
mineral resources alone of that
County are immense and are
beginning to attract much atten-
ton from capital. Considerable
traffic and trade with Utah is
already springing up; and the
whole business of the County bids
fair to be commanded by the ra-
pidly approaching Utah Southern
railroad, unless liberality and
accommodation is shown toward
that people by our steamboat
Company. When the current of
trade shall once be established

it can not be again diverted
to the Colorado river. Such cur
rent would take all Mohave
freight from the entire Central
Pacific and Southern Pacific rail
roads, as we'll as from our steam
boats.
The Arizona sentinel., 1879-06-21

The trade of the Colorado river
is a matter that merits careful
attention from managers of the
Southern Pacific Railroad. They
have practically withdrawn their
steamers from the river, only
sending a boat up about once a
month; apparently just to keep
some people in Mohave County
dependent upon them from run
ming entirely out of supplies.
The effect of this virtual non.
intercourse has been to force
other people Of that County to
seek other channels through
which to get supplies. The re-
sources of Mohave are little un-
derstood, and far from being ap-
preciated. They have not been
developed rapidly because of
lack of communication and are

These mines have taken the front rank
in the camp, it would seem, only from the
fact that they are farther developed and in
fact are about the only claims in the dis
trict upon which work of any consequence
has been done. There are many other
claims which can show up surface indica-
tons equal to any Of the above named,
but the old story, want OF capital" pre-
vents their being opened, and the proba-
bilities are that they will remain closed
until the Territory has gained better
reputation abroad. Then, there are some
poor mines here too. The folly Of sending
inexperienced men here to buy is fully
demonstrated by certain company who
have taken out two or three thousand
tons of comparatively worthless ore, and
how much the entire camp is 10 he con-
demned in the East, remains to be seen
after these parties have returned to their

A Case in Point,

a frontier country is not go I'd
one for experiments in mining
machinery. The successful oper.
alton of new tangled apparatus
should be fully demonstrated,
before any of it is brought fOr
use out here. Messrs stanford
and Escalante have some prOmis-
ing mines in Sonora, just across
the boundary from Arizona. A
short time ago they took down
there a new rotary pulverizer,
steam engine to run it, and full
stock of supplies for extracting
bullion from their ores. The
pulverizer worked to a charm
for an hour or so; then its work
became less satisfactory; until
finally, and before night, it cea-
std to do its work at all -
ausgespielt. The owners have
very confidence in their mines,
but such a strain has been put
upon their cash resources by
the purchase and erection of this
machinery that their property
bids fair to lie idle until they can
recuperate. Machinery of the usu-
al style would have cost but lit
tie more money, and would ere
this have added another rivulet
to the stream of bullion that is
beginning to flow from Arizona.

The Arizona Lottery is not
getting fair treatment at the
hands of the press. We disap-
prove of all such schemes,and pub
lished its advertisement without
comment, while other journals
of the Territory INDUCED in full
some encOmiumS of it and very
proper endorsement of its pro-
jectors. The scheme was publish
ed in full and without deceit.
No evidence has yet appeared
of any attempt to perpetrate a
swindle, or that the managers
have proposed to act otherwise
than as advertised. Yet the very
journals that were lOudest in
recommending this gamble to
the public are now denOuncing
it and lis promoters, and outside
papers are echoing their i'll cO'i-
sidered comments. We object
to all lotteries as ininical to good
public morals; but the Arizona
scheme and it's managers are
just as honest now as they were
at the start, and just as we'll Ell
titled to fair treatment.
