ldl pet or the CITIZEN, m SpllS Ot its politics, for MT. Holmes, one of the owners, is our regular Globe correspondent, and right here l want to say that better or more truthful gentlemen does not write for the press Tn Arizona. Coming here in 1870, he has identified himself with Globes mining interests, never waverlng m his faith, and never loOsing sight of the belief that the truth alone Will work out his camps splendid destiny. 4 miner md prOspector himself, there Is not man in sll Globe who could or would say aught against w. A. Holmes. So here is luck to him and the handsome LOwther, his part ner.
 Let me give the small boy of Tue son a pointer" There is a circus coming-a real. live circus, and tb | is the frozen truth. Ryland's Great American will be in Globe in few days, and from there to Tucson -sJ the advance agent says. A "pOinteI !" to heads Of growing families might also be in OTder-t0 look up every portable and saieable article now ly ing unsu~piciously arOund-but l never go back on the small boy.
 A late letter from this place, pub lished in the PheniX Herald, over the nom de plume knickerbOcker," !" containing burlesque account of the proceedings of a recent Democratic ratification meeting here, created no little fun and sensation The speak CTS were W. A. Holmes, Sam. II. Will dy and Frank Fitch, the latter son Of The "Silver-tOngued orator" These gen tlemen were most unmercifuliy SCOT ed, but they all had the good sense 10 laugh the matter away. Otherwise there would have been trouble, and no mistake. Wildly, who is a handsome aGd popular young lawyer, genuine good fellow, and a SUu,herner into the bargain, was made an especial target for hnick's sarcastic shafts, and many thought he would resent the cuts. But, as he very sensi6ly told me, he hoped his name would never appear Tn the columns of new paper n d more disparaging light than as appearing before an assemblage of lCCAitOCAA At6 III AihtuN GU pffbAN N'A 9NAN IT a man as Grant Oury. He added, how ever, that his only regret was that his name should appear in the same columns with that of Julius Van Slyck, now of Globe, but formerly of Me Millen"-the latter being generally re- garied here as the author of the letter i'll question.
 Visitors to Globe invariably desire to visit the rich mines which lie with in radius of twenty miles around, and the best way to do so Is to take them in on horseback. therefore ad- vIse them to interview friend D. B. Lacy, who bas one of the largest and most extensive corrals in the Terri tory, and who, besides being able to furnish any kind of conveyance on the shortest notice, can give such re- liable information regarding the differ ent mining sections and routes lead ing thereto as will be invaluable tO the stranger
 Readers of TIE CITIZEN can always find copies of the paper at the news and stationery store O. of Bell x Ham, mond. in the lower part of town. These energetic young gentlemen have a 1 large and handsome store, and besides furnishing the much reading people or Globe with periodicals, do an ex- tensive business in the cigar and to- bacc0 line Their neat and well ar ranged establishment is a good reflex or the general prosperity of the camp.
 It is always the pleasant duty of q representative of popular journal to publicly thank the many who endeav- or to encourage an honest press for their kind efforts. But if l should commence an acknowledgment of the favors and marks of respect snOwered upon TIE CITIZEN during my stay, there would be a crowding of your columns to their utmost capacity. As prosperous and rapidly rising com munity Globe has readily acknowl- edged THE CITIZENS efforts Co aid in placing her advantages and magniti- cent mines before the world Tn their true light. And so goodbye. L.
