SILVER KING NUGGETS.
Preparations fer Vigorous work on Large Scale Renewed Activity Fersonal-lrregu- lar Marg

TSpecisl Corrcsrsndence of the CITIZEN.
 SILVER KING. November 4.-The camp is about coming out and letsng itself be heard from again, owing to the prepara- tions that are being made by some of the mines for prosecuting work on a larger scale than they have been doing. The Eastern is about to resnme the work of drifting at the 300-foot level, and the Mowrey Consolidated is down below the IO0-foot level and Is expected to put up machinery sufficient to sink 800 feet. There i. a contract let for sinking POO feet on the Mount View, with whim. The timbers are being laid on the ground now fer the work. The Last Chance, l understand, Is to resume work by the 1st of next month. The Silver King Is looking as well as ever, from the appearance of the bright, shining loads that pass our doors on the ore teams every day, and they are working sufil- cient men to keep their twenty stamps pounding all the time, and We are all happy. There are very few idle men ln camp, and good time Is coming.
 The Silver King boys keep up their dances every two weeks, when we have the company of the F. r. V's of PinaL
 Last Thursday night this place was very much enllvened by the return of the boss. Colonel R. Williams, who has been soiourning at Hot Springs, Arkan- sas, for the benefit of his health. He seems to have been benefited very much and also changed very much from the appearance of a \. I. Alderman. He now looks like solid muldoon or any other man.
 The CITIZEN is looked for here as eagerly as the breakfast, and when, sometimes through some slip in the mall arrangements, 1t fails to make its appear ance, I am afraid the employees of the postal service would shudder at the few remarks poured on their weary heads by the boys when they return from the dining and inquire for the CITIZEN and l announce its non-arrival; but l suppose there is no use kicking in that direction.

Florence Facts.
knterprise.l


 MT. Wm. Tweed, of Fl Capitan, was in Florence this week oH business. He IS on the eve of making an important mining sale, and we would not be at all surprised tO see him wearing the hat of a ricl man some of these fine mornings. Matters are getting lively mp at Min eral Hill and the inevitable contest over claims has commenced. It is to be hoped that all disputes will be speedily and anicably adjusted, as litigation re- tards the growth and development of a camp.
 District Attorney Summers, his wife and daughter, left for San Francisco yes terday. Mrs. Summers and Miss June will not return tO Florence, We under stand, at least till the latter has com pleted her education. They have our good wishes.
 Mir. Bancroft brought down from the Silver King mine, Monday, 2l.OOO pounds of concentrations, which will be shipped from Casa Grande to St. Louis. There are l9,WO pounds waiting trans pOrtatiOn from the mine to the depot, making in all, 4OOOO pounds. It is worth ;t least S1 per pound.
 Mir. q. |. Hutchinson and wife, of Cleveland, Ohio, passed through here Wednesday, en route home from Globe and Silver King. Mir. Hutchinson came out here to take look at Arizona mines, and go, 8 home with the impression that the mines of this Territory have not been OverCstimated.
 Mrs. C. D. Henry, of Mineral Hill, re- turned from San Francisco Monday. She has been visiting in the city of the Golden Gate for some weeks with old time friends, but the humid, chilly air of that place did not agree with her, and this fact induced her to abreviate her visit and return to the health-restOring climate of Mineral Hill. Her return will give pleasure to her many friends.
 NIT. Spangler, of the PinaI Copper Company, arrived here from San Fran CISCO Monday. We did not have a talk with him but understand he Is here ir the interest of the company, It is to be hoped that the troubles of his cor poratIOn will be adjusted at once and its property put to some use. It is a shame to have good property lying idle and wasting away under growing costs of litigation.
 November 2d was the day on which an election was to be held in Pinal to determine whether a tax of S2,2tO should be levied on Piual School District for the purpose of building a new school house. A few hours before the time ap- pointed for the opening of the polls, the trustees came tO the conclusion that the city of Piual Is not in Pinal School Dis trict, by reason of an error of descrip- ton on the minutes of the Board OI Supervisors, in bounding the district, and the election was postponed indefi- nitely.

THE Rocky Mountain Review. one of the best mining journals of the West, has the following in relation to the grow ing interest throughout the country in mining matters:
 The interest in mining operations is steadily increasing throughout the coun- try. Hundreds of men of moderate means in Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin and Missouri, as well as the States further East, are sending their money in sums of Sl0O and upward to be invested III our mines and mining stocks. Capitalists are sending their money in larger quan- titles to be invested in more extensive mining enterprises. A feeling of conf- dence in the future of our great indus try, seem at last to be taking hold of all classes, and inspiring them with a desire to make investments in mines. We are glad to see this, and rejoice that so much money is coming into our country, but at the same time We wish to warn these good people against a certain class of mining operators who vill most certainly lead them into putting their money where there IS not the shadow of a chance of their ever getting a return of principal or profit. Investigate well before letting your moneyIgo.

The Indian Question.
LFcom tle Prescott Demoecat. ]

From tle Prescott Democrat
 We call attention to the following able letter from the Hon. Fred. c. Hughes, President of the Tenth Legislative As sembly of Arizona. Its tenor will be endorsed by every pioneer in our Terri tory:
 TUCSoN, A. T., November l, 1881.
 GENERAL CLARK CHURCHILL, AdJutaut General Arizona Militia, Prescott, \. T.-GESERAL: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your com munication of the 2Sth ult., inclosing General order No. l.
 In reply l would state that I hold no commission in the Arizona militia, and therefore have no lists to transmit as required.
 l would further state though, l am satisfied from a twenty years experience with the Indians and military of this section of the Territory, that 1t is Idle for the citizens to expect any relief or assistance from the military in the pres ent difficulty with the ChiricahUa Apacles. As soon as those Indians have secreted their families and herds in the Sierra Madres of Old Mexico, they will make constant raids upon our settle lAtlll0 ltl L4-t l'i-N Nt plunderiug our people. Long experI- ence, dearly paid for, has taught Us that to depend upon the military for assist ance or redress in these emergencies, Is the height of folly. Within my experi- ence, cannot call to mind a single in- stance where any such result has been obtainsd-except in official reports from subordinates to superiors.
 The citizens of this section of the Territory are unanimously of the opinion that the only way of settling the present Indian difficulty Is to raise volunteers acquainted with their haunts, habits and camping grounds; who have interests at stake, and numerous wrongs to redress; who have lost Indians, and who know that their safety hereafter requires that they should find them. We have hun dreds of such here, and when the Gov ernOr concludes the emergency has ar rived, requiring him to call for such, then I can raise him loo or 200 men in so many hours. Twill then be prep8red to accept a commission in the militia or volunteers, or enroll myself in the ranks.
 I am, General, very respectfully, your obedient servant, F. G. HUGHEs.

MR DAVID R. RAT, who has been do- ing business at Harshaw for the past year or two, left Sunday for New York city, where he will make his future home. Mr. Rae is well known in min ing circles in Arizona, and his knowl- edge of such matters will undoubtedly be sought by investors in that city. His opinions upon the value of Arizona prop he4Pses have been acquired by actual e1- perience among the mines and are based on bare facts, and therefore are valuable, while his probity of character will re- strain all exaggeraticn of the merits of any properties. Mr. Rae's many friends in Arizona wish him eminent success in the modern Gotham.

F., whose mission to Rome is now exciting so much comment. They informed the Nuncio that Errington in no way repre- sented views or the feeling of any sec ton of the Irish people. This interview, though not important in itself, would have a certain interest attached to 1t if 1t be true that a few days before he penned his late memorable letter Arch bishop Croke also had a conference with MonSignor Czacki in Paris.
