Ahrantares of the Railroad.


 By telegraph we learn that the Southern Pacific railroad was complet- ed to Tucson, Arizona, yesterday. This completes about 1000 miles of road on the Southern Pacific route east from San Francisco, and brings into rapid and easy communication with the ret of the world the territory of Arizona, containing about l13,OOO square miles. and will largely increase trade and commerce and stimulate investment and enterprise in the neighboring state of Sonora, Mexico, which already con tslus population of over 100,0OO in babitant-. We understand work will he continued on the road without de- lay through Arizona and New MexicoI unIil through connection is made with the east. The building of this road will greatly stimulate mining en- terprises in that great interior country. Ali explorers from Humboldt to theI pre~ent time have united in declaring Arizona to be an extensive and rich mining field; but it was separated from the outside world by desert wastes and oyrrrun by h"stile Apaches. By lhe completion of thi, rad tO Tucson all this has been changed, and We hear dsily of rich and nev discoveries. of the favorable developments of mines already discovered and the erection of new machinery and he constant in crease of the product d gold and sil- yer. The Tombstone district IS now attracting more stteMion than any other in the territory. It IS only two wears since it was discovered, and al- ready a town of about 5000 inhabitants has been built there, and it is predict | ed that II will contsn s population of 10000 before year from this time. The Tombstone company will it is said, commence psying $50,OO0 per month dividends ol and after May 1, and Il is expected that by that time the Western company will double that amount regularly, and that other com panies will soon fall into the line as dividend paying miTes. Until recent. ly there has been but little said about this district, but if the results prove as expected its fame will rapidly spread on its real merit, which is the only basis that any mining district ought 10 rest on.-[ \. |.

On the first named the ledge is opened in six different places, showing width from five to twenty five feet. The shaft on ithe Hindoo is about twenty feet deep. On the Florids and Ben Virgin about the same depth has been reached. These claims are under the supervis- ion ot J. L. Rule, with B A. Huskins as foreman. They employ about ff- teen men.

Yavapai County.
From the Prescott Democrat.l

The Prince, Little Prince and Prin- cess form what is generally called the Prince mine. There are three distinct veins running parallel within 270 feet, all producing high grade ore, running nv average assay from $700 to $90O per ton. There is a shaft down on the Prince 25O feet, numerous drifts and a tunnel 300 feet connecting with the ore chamber. Previous to this mine being transferred the old owners look out about $70,OOO.
 The Warrior, which is located near the Prince, is thought by many to be even better than the Prince, from the fact that the ledge is of an immense width, supposed to be sixty feet. This ledge has a shaft 160 fret deep, & tun- mel goo feet tapping the ledge and 400 feet of drifts. The Warrior has also three ore veins.
 The other mine completing the three is the Tuscumbia, aud is piOOa- bly, the most wonderful mine in Amer lca. It is found al the base of \ noun tain and can be worked at . depth of HOO feet h, tunnel. There is tunnel running in on the ledge between the walls very perfect and beautiful for 275 feel. The ledge carries from 36 to 40 inches of solid ore which pays from $500 10 $4O0 per ton. A quantI- iy of this ,re was worked at the Peck mill and yielded by working process, which was up to eighty per cent of iIs assay value S9S1 per ton. The shaft is down ll0 feet, but the ledge has been tapped by tunnel to much great CT depth.
 The Prince mining company are to be congratulated in acquiring such a fine property, which shows at least S1 ,0O0,O 900 at the present time, and if II WIS located tsyorsbly to 2 railroad it would easily sell for $4,0O, ,0OO.

 Two assays from lhe Adell mine, Groom Creek district, assay respective ly $339 and $349 per ton. The Adell is strong well defined vein and is owned by G. W. Curtis.
 The Tiger is looking splendidly in its deepest workings, snd is producing some of the finest ore yet taken out. Sinking of lhe main shaft will be re- sumed in a short time, and the work ing force increased.
 The Basin mill is running on Silver Prince ore, which is yielding well.
 The ThunderbOli mill is running on rock which IS paying handsomely.

Mineral SnrInPa.

Judge Underhill returned Wednes- day from a trip to the San Pedro, where he has been to examine what are called the Irish Springs, situated east of the San Pedro River, and about five miles above 0hneSOrgen's Station. There are eleven springs, some of which are slightly mineralized. It is the purpose of the company to pipe this water to the road, ,or use in their engines if it prc'es suitable, and Judge Underhiil has taken ample to San Francisco for snslysi'. The road grade is now completed considerable distance up the CieneN Valley, and the Judge says the road mght to ne in the San Pedro Valley by May 15. MT. Underhili took the sleepr Thursday evening for San Francis,o, expecting to visit this section again h about two months.

Honorable Journalism.

Among honorable journals credit is always given to those from whom they copy, but we have of late noticed an evident reluctancy on the part of the Arizona Democrat to give the Orr HEN proper recognition for such artl- cles as it has deemed meritorious enongh to use; especially does this occur in the issue of the 27th, in which the Star IS credited with an article on "The proposed new mining law" an able article contributed to this paper by A. R. Smith, of Gro Blanco. Mis- quotations will sometimes occur, but their repetition suggests something besides carelessness.

SATURDAY,
New Road to HarshaW.
The Advantages to be Derived Through It's Construction -TeamAters all
 in Tabor of it.

- The Southern Pacific Railroad Is hurrying on, in 0 short time il may be- come necessary to establish new sta-
 tions, in fact it is already announced
 that by the 10th of April the road will
 be finished to Ciencga, and 6 station
 located there for the shipment of
 through freights 10 Tombstone and
 the different camps in Patagonia Dis
 trict. To the former district travel
 and freight will naturally seek the
 best and shortest route, which for the
 present at least, Cienega affords, but it does not grant equal advantages to
 Hsrshaw and its immediate camps, and it behooves our merchants and
 business men to immediately con-
 menee building he proposed road from this place 10 the camp mention ed, that the large trade which we now enjoy may remain with us. If they do not, travel and freight will natural
 ly pass Tucson and be shipped from
 Cienega, as the road from here to
 HarshaG is 8 long rough and alto
 gether 8 miserable affair. Those fla
 miliAr with the route know the dis
 tance is much longer than it should
 be. In leaving here it runs some thirty miles almost due east 10 Davis Springs, from there about fifteen miles almost south, to Empire ranch, thence
 between seventeen and eighteen miles west to Greens ranch, and then south west seven or eight miles to Harshsw. making about seventy-fvc miles in all.
 The proposed road would be fully twenty-five miles shorter, and much better in every respect, being we'll wat cred and having easier grades. Ii will be but about ten miles longer than the road from Cienega, but superior in every respect. as much of that is over low and swampy ground, which will be impossible during the rainy sea son, and very heavy hauling in the To avoid this it will be nee essary to run around the foot hills, which will make the road longer than the route we advocate. Again, there are no accommodations for teams Orl travellers at Cienegs. and the entire volume of merchandise, machinery and stream of travel will by choice pass Tucson if the new road is built. The route has already been and the cost of construction is but trifle in comparison with the benefits which will accrue to our busi- ness men. We have conversed with a of freight ITS, and they .sll eX- press a hope that the road will be built, saying they prefer to do their from here, AS they have every accommodation, while Cienega " is q regular mudhole;" but if the new road is not built they will be forced 10 team from such points ss the freight is de.
 iyered at. Tn couversing with a num- Der of our leading business men and real estate owners we find them unhn- imous in expressing themselves will ing to contribute the necessary money, and We feel confident the whole amount required could be raised with
 in half day. Nothing is required put acton, therefore let us be up and ioing before the golden opportunity passes beyond our reach.

Our Copper Nins.

There is no reason vhy the copper mines of Arizona and New Mexico may not, with proper development, become of even creaer importance than those nf Lake Supdor. These of Clifton District are obl,ed to pay S60 per ton tor charco'l an about S70 per ton for transport,tlnno the end of the track, and yet theynanage to compete with the great mins of Lake Superior in the copper markts of the east.

A democratic exchange says:
 If Grant is nominated, the Demo crats, unless they should take especial pains to make an offensive and unpnp popular nomination, will get the Pres idency by an overwhelming and hon est majority.
 Which is equivalent to admitting that the attempt to boost Tilden in the presidential chair was not honest. We enjoy listening 10 such confessions for while the lamp holds out there is a chance for the veriest sinner to pass in his checks.

The Tiger Min.

From the Prescott Dmocrat we learn that the recent troube about the above mine WAS caused as blows:
 It appears that numbe of drafts were drawn by the Superintendent in charge of the mine, MT. H.lm, on the company, at San Francisco, which drafts were bought by FEW. Blake and duly presented. Pigment was there refused, for the req bn, as it ap- pears, that funds of the company had been sent to the Bank of ArizOna. at Prescott, to meet them. These drafts, with costs of the protests, mounted to S20O5.S5, and Mir. Blake once com menced proceedings in ur District Court 10 collect the debt. An attach ment was levied by his attrniy, Capt. Hsrgrave, and Sheriff Wlkrr seized the mine and its appurtdances. B, this time it was discOverei that some one had blundered," and Mir Church i'll, attorney for the cOpany, settled the suit.
