An Old Eurekan's Opinion OF So
nora, Mexico-Its Mines, Lands,

An Old Eureknn's opinion Of So
nora. Mexico-Its Mines, Lands,
Etc.
Tucson, Arizona, April %, 1880.
J. s. wHrrroS-Dear sir: Yours Of the
18th received to-day. Since We left here
we travelled about 500 miles. From what l
have seen Of the State Of Sonora, Mexico,
it surpasses my most sanguine expectations.
We found some very rich placers, and if
we could have steam power enough to raise
a sluice head Of water from 10 tc 20 feet,
and force the same about so feet upon the
bench or mossa, as they call them here, l
think we could all get rich. A 15-horse
power engine would do it, n the thing
could not be worked out in 80 years. OF
my own knowledge, I can not say
much about the mineral wealth Of
the State, but I will tell you what
a man by the name OF Johnson,
whom we met at Buchuchie, told US, and
who has been in Arizona and Sonora for IA
years. He said it is the richest country on
earth, and hat there was not a State in the
Union that has money enough to work
it out in 100 years. AS to the land,
l think it is the finest opening in
the world to-day for a man to invest
a few thousand dollars in. Suppose you
buy a four-league grant. and all grants are
located OF springs or rivers; well, you lay
four leagues, a little over 10000 acres
you command a grazing acreage of from
100 900 to $50, 900 acres, with as good soil
OF the rivers as there is in America. l
will not say that it as extensive as in Ohio,
but a man can get all that he will care
about cultivating on a stock ranch, and if
you were to see it, you would think as l do.
Barley and corn sells for three cents per
pound, potatoes from five to IL cents per
pound. The land is what l am stuck after
most. 1 must have some, if l have to ''stop
a stage" for it. I could raise crops enough
to pay for it the first year. I know
where to get some cheap n
good; in fact, it is all cheap enough, and
the Yanks know it, for they are after it.
There is a market for everything. You
need not fear the hot climate in Sonora
until you get to Hermosillo and Guymas.
l could not live 80 far down; that is, /
could not buy any land that far down.
Tucson is very hot in the summer, but it
is rs or 80 miles from the line. Hoping to
hear from you soon, / remain yours, re-
spectfully, J. F. HARRINGTON.

One Hundred Mile Race To-day.

At II o'clock to-day Miss Baymer will
start in on her wonderful undertaking Of
riding 100 miles on the bicycle, whilst
James o'Brien, the pedestrian. makes 60
miles, ''go-as-you-please." The task is a
most severe one. but the lady and her man
ayers feel confident that she can accomplish
the distance within IS hours, and also
think that she can just about beat O'Brien.
The ~latter's friends, however, think differ
emily, and considerable money is, there
fore, likely to be wagered IN the contest,
which can not but be interesting. From
the attractiveness of the affair we expect to
see Eureka Hall we'll filled all day, and in
the evening it will surely be crowded.
Pools on the race will be sold during he
day and evening in the Hall. by Mr.. Frank
Keelar, the auctioneer.

A correspondent Of the White Pine News
sends that journal the following from
Osceola:
L. s. Scott commenced hauling ore to
the mill last Saturday.
The Water Company will commence
work on their hume this week.
The melting snow furnishes a good sup
ply Of water, and placer miners are doing
well.
The quartz mines are looking we'll, SO
far as they have been developed, and their
real merits and permanence will be pretty
thoroughly tested during the coming sum-
mer.
The present run Of the mill is made
principally for the purpose of testing the
ores Of the district. If the result is as an
ticipated. new milling machinery will be
brought in at once.
The mill started up last Monday. There
is a large quantity Of ore on the dumps.
and the mill has been placed in good con-
dition to work it.

Unanimous for TfIden.

Tuscarora seems to be pretty solid for
Tilden. The Democrats of that place held
a meeting the other evening to fill a va
cancy in the Central Committee. Accord
ing to the Times Review, a vote was taken
for President with the following result 1t
was unanimously for Tilden. and the meet
ing adjourned with three rousing cheers
for Sammy. The Democrats Of Tuscarora
appear to be as largely in favor of Tilden
as are the Republicans for Blaine.

Mr.. John Horn, Jr., returned from the
Wood River country on Thursday evening.
He says the immigration all went into the

and that but very little is known Of the
mining resources Of that locality as yet.

I'm MemOriam.

On the morning of the 9th inst, MRS
MARY VANMETER, widow of the late Thos
vanmeter, aged "a years and "a days,
fell asleep In Jesus. She had been in de
clining health for several years; but the
last few months of her sickness her suffer-
ings were very great. These she bore
without a murmur and with entire sub.
mission to the will of her Heavenly Father.
She often expressed herself anxiously
waiting for the summons to call her from
the Affections of this life to the JOYS of
Heaven. to enter upon the inheritance
which is incorruptible, undefled, and
which fadeth not away, Preserved in
Heaven for u.s." &c. While it seemed long
for her to wait, yet the spirit of her lam
guage was, "All the days Of my appoint
ed time will wait till my change shsll
come " A faithful member of the Lutheran
church of this city, she possessed the
highest esteem of all her acquaintance
the love and confidence of all her friends
and relatives. She died as she lived
with unfaltering trust in God. 'Precious
in the sight Of the Lord is the death Of
his saints"
"Tis sweet to rest in lively hope,
Tha: when my change shall come
Angels will hover round my bed,
And wait my spirit home p
