Good Enough.

By private letter from Harshaw we learn that Ex-Congressman Luttrell has {" struck it rich in the Alta mine, owned by himself and others. The Alta lies near the Washington Camp road A mile or two from the town of Harsbaw. and was purchased by NIT. Tp,,rell for himself and associates, since which time work has been stead ilv prosecuted with view {" the de velopment of the propertys It has long been looked upon by the miners around Harshaw As acOmmg bonanza, and it's promise seems about to be fuI- filled. IL has ?]-fnot ledge, carrying A very rich pay-streaE, and the rapid widening of this as depth is reached constitutes the strike. The vein car ries ore which averages away into the hundreds, and a specimen was assay ell on Monday last which gave the magnificent result of $220O. This was taken from the bottom Of the main shaft, which was down l2 feet when our informant wrote. The ore is. we believe, a species ot carbonates, and il has every indication O: perma- nency. The CITIZEN is heartily glad of the way the Alta is showing up; both for the owners sake and for liar shaw as well.

nn Mnre sociabIe

The CITIZEN has several times urged the organization into lodges of mem hers among us of the leading secret societies. as a means of promoting needed social intercourse in our city. There are certainly enough members ortbe Masonic. Odd Fellows and other leading orders, in addition 10 those who would be glad cf an opportunity ,o becoue members, in oar commun iu to insure the building up or large ar raDizatious. The benefits to our community would be very great Everything winch tends t0 cement our people in friendly bonds and make life in this frontier country pleasanter will go far to bring to our city for permanent residence the best class of penple. Make social existence in Tue son mere iEtimate and friendly. and Il wi.I reduce the number who come to the Territory with only an idea to make q fortune speedily, to enable them ,o live more comfortably in an- other country, and who, failing in this, find nothing here to recommend res idcnce in a community where, by pa tience and perseverance, they may ac- complish more than they are able 10 elsewhere.
 We are pleased to notice the effort of A number of our Odd Fellows to organize loIgein Tucson. At the called meeting held on Sunday at NIT. Petit's office, it was the general con viction that the time had arrived here when such a movement would be success. Committees were appointed to give the matter more careful con sideration, and will report ut another meeting to be held on Wednesday evening next at the same place. No one questions the beneficial character of the order, and the successful estab- lishment of a lodge will be matter of general congratulation. Now let the MasOns and other orders follow, and the result will be a closer bond of social union in Tucson, which cannot but be of good to our people and city,
 In connection with this matter, we have heard that movement is on foot looking to the erection of a building which would be suitable to the pur- poses of secret socIeties, and we hope the report is true. Tucson is much behind some of the smaller of our neighboring towns. Young as Globe City is, il has Masonic Hall which for neatness, size and convenience. is not equaled by any building in Tue son.

VIM stewart for Delegate.
 The unanimous nominajioa of Hon. II. W. Stewart iol Delegate to Con. gress by Jle Republican Terri' rial Convention a, PHeniz, monday. aa.i sn nounc,d on the CEIzaN Lu,!cuH. caused feeling of rroiruEs sa;is:cc- tion not only l:uoa- ;Ae lrieaj- ci this popu.gs gentleman, but among ali classes or our citizens. The nomi- nation is conceded on ali sides lo be the strongest which could by any possibility have been made. To many the annuuncement of his selection by the Convection IS a surprise, as il was suppo-ed that he would poi accept the profercd honor, and. indeed, it was only at the earnest solicitation oi his friends, Democratic as well ss Re publican, that be was induced to ac cept
 Of the n0mIaeee himself, little is necessary to be said No man in Arizona is more widely and favorab'y known. Of an integrity that is almost stern, his name alone is a tower of strength. During residence of some years in the Territory be has won a position by his splendid personal and business qualities that Is simply un. aSSailabie That he wifi he elected is the earnest wish of the CITIZEN, for the interests of our rapidly growing Territory in Congress will be ab<o- lately safe in his hands His fitness for the position is uuquestionable He has had much legislative experience, having been, wh le a resident of Colo rado, Speaker ot the Assembly of that then Territory. position which he also held in our own Legislature at it> last session. 4 gentleman uf singular personal magnetism, he possesses a quiet dignity and intelligence which commands at once friendship and re- spect, while his abilities are such as to ensure the proper execution Of what ever task he may undertake
 The nomination of Hon. Vim. II. Stewart possesses another good feature in the fact that il will rob the coming political contest of much Of partisan bitterness, toward which there is a tendency which every friend of our young Territory should deprecate. The favorable light in which MT Stewart is held by the Democrats uni versally will go far lu rob he cam paign of the acrimony which usually invests elections where party lines are rigidly drawn
 Altogether, Arizona is 10 be con grat ulated on the wisdom shown by our two political parties in their selcctIon of candidates for the most important office Tn the gift of the people. Should Mr. Stewart be elected-and the CITI- ZEN hopes and believes he will-Ari- zona will send to the National Con gress a man of whom she may well ne proud; should he be defeated, we will still have in Hon. Grant II. Oury a representative in whom every con fidence can be placed.

The Mud Blockade.


 Affairs on the Southern Pacific are still Tn bad way at places between Tucson and Yuma, and even beyond. There is a big wash-out about 30 miles the other side of the latter place, and another near Addnnda. Several small CT ones have occurred at intervals, and the trains are in consequence much delayed, the freight trains espeei ally. Passengers and mails are transferred ut the breaks, SO that travel is not put 10 much inconvenient delay. Between Tucson and Benson the energetic efforts of the railroad men men have succeeded in clearing and repairing the track so that trains can be run slowly over the late breaks. but until tue road-bed is thoroughly solid again, all trains will leave in the morning, so as to enable them to pass over the repaired places by day light.
 Too much credit cannot be given the officers of the Tucson division for the care they have exercised since the heavy rains set in, and the promptness and energy, as well as obiiging dIspo- sition, they have diSpiayed during the emergency. It is more than worthy of note that not a single accident to life and limb has occurred since the trouble commenced.

A de- sign by competsnt and experienced architect, such as NIT. Petit certainly IS, does not cost much, aud is, in the end, of the utmost economy.

Tho Age or Progress.


 It is with pleasure that we notice the marked changes for the better in nearly everything connected with this ancient burgh IL was our priv ilege to day to visit the mammoth fur niture emporium of Leo Goldschmidt and were agreeably surprised to see the interest taken by the proprietor 10 the manufacturing department. We found that Mr Goldschmidt did not entirely depend upon Eastern manu- facturers, but had started in building, as il were, furniture from ;he ground up. We were shown a French Elm press parlor suite, which for elegance of style and solidlty of make, could have no superior. all of which, frame work as we'll as upholsterIng, were manufactured on the premises.

Early Monday morning news reached this city of the death at Harsh'.w of Charles P. Moroney, second son O Paul Morohey, proprietor of the Cos

 The deceased was more than or
 diuarily fine looking young man, q years of age, of vivdciouS and cheerful , temperament, and a universal favorite,
 not only wIth his employers and his acquaintances generally, but with the younger portion of the community, among whom the startling intelligence has caused feeling of profound sad
 ness. All day long the friends and
 acquaintances of the family have been
 endeavoring to console the almost
 prostrated parents in their hour of
 sore trial, and the feeling of regret IS
 universal in the city. The fact is re
 called that during his recent visit to
 his parents his keen enjoyment of life
 and health was particularly notice able, and death indeed found a shin uipg mark when it struck down
 Charlie Moroney in all the pride of a

BrigidO Reyes in Tucson
LFrom Tuesdsy,. Dailyl

NGWS ItdCitu Nhlo NAtg 'tN-7N H z, 'A' which would seem to indicate that tho notorious highway rnbber, Brigido Reyes, has about come to the end of the rope which he SO richly deserves Last Thursday he and his followers
 were attacked by the Mexican troops between Tubutama and Puente, and after q conflict in which a number of his followers are reported killed, the
 remainder of his gang fled for Ameri- can soil He was followed into the United States ny the troops, and finally after several skirmiShes, some of his were brought to bay at Doctor Wilbur's ranch, about three miles from Ariyaca. Their surrender was demanded, but the men upon the ranch refused to deliver up the fugi- tives, and the Mexican troops with drew across the line to await orders. Meanwhile large party of citizens of Arivaca, learning of the presence of these unwelcOme intruders, proceeded to the ranch and took the party, eleven in nun. Der, prisoners, where they are held awaiting the arrival of the United States Deputy Marshal, who left at noon today to take charge of the party.
 Last night Sheriff fShibell received re liable information that BrigidO and two companions who had with him escaped death or capture were on their way to Tucson, and he accord ingly sent Deputy Sheriff Butner and two other men out on the road 10 in- tercept and if possible capture the party The watchers were in the night rewarded by perceiving man ride up to where they were concealed but followed by five, instead of two, companions The leader was sup posed to have been Brigido, though as the night was quite dark and the man had a handkerchief on the lower part of his face, they were not absolutely certain.
 As the leader drew near the party, who were concealed, his horse sudden ly shied, and he called out in Spanish for his struggling compan- ions to Look out" Butner at once called out to Brigido 10 halt, when the latter, exclaiming What, halt" drew revolver and commenced firing rapidly in the direction of the officers. Alter few shots were eX- changed he succeeded in getting by the party unharmed, and rode of rap- idly in the direction of Tucson. His companions, after exchanging few shots with the officers, who were armed with rifles, succeeded in escap. ing in the darkness.
 This morning the scene of the fusil
 lade was visited, and dead mule be. longing to the robbers was found
 having heen killed by one of the
 probably 9 bullets which whistled al cross purposes the night previous The saddle on the mule was bloody
 aud a rifle was found lying near, which
 would indicate that another of the bandits had taken 2 hand in stopping
 ihe leaden interchange of compli ments
 A posse of men are now on the trail
 of the remaining fugitives, and al
 though up to the time of going tC ! press no news had been received by Sheriff Shibell, It would seem a;
 though Brigido Reyes and the balance of his murderous gang of cui-throat: and horse thieves are about 10 receive
 such check as will deter any future
 foolhardy and msrauding raids into onr neighboring State of Sonora.
