A Dark Picture.

Below we give an extract from pri- vate letter, written to a prominent mer- chant of this place, by a gentleman now in Sonora The writer is a keen and in telligent observer, and his statements can be taken as trustworthy;
 CoATzAcoALCos, Sept. Is, 1881.
 ''You ask if there is anything substan- tial in Mexico. There may be on the northern frontier; elsewhere the decay and poverty are appalling. Extensive inn migration is impossible. Mines, rail roads and commerce, handled by foreign CTS with foreign capital, are holding Mex ico from going too fast down the grade, but the grade is down and heavy one. The constitution is liberal one, and the theory of legislation, like that of election, is good, but the practice is terrific. Much of the country is extremely fertile, but not available. Records have been de stroyed by revolutions; titles are uncer- tain, and boundaries are disputed. Lands are held largely by communities and in common by descendants of several genera tions of mtestates. Industry is taxed heavily. Wealth accumulated by the Spaniards and by the Catholic Church has been dissipated, and the next move must be upon capital now being introduced by foreigners. Like every other country ii offers many openings for nerve" and an adventurous, gambling temperament. But forprudent thrift Mexico taken as whole offers few inducements. Change of flag cannot and must not be contemplated No possible good can come to the United States from acquisition of any inhabited part of Mexico

try completely of every cord of wood with in fourteen miles of the mill, and in an other year there will be none within twen- ty-two miles; which fact is very serious matter, and to meet this emergency some thing must be done, and that something we believe will be the erection of reduc- ton works on the Gila river, where wood is abundant and worth about $350 per cord. At the mine, it now costs them S12.50.
 The company organized to build rail road from the Silver King mine to Casa Grande, has been moving very slowly. They have completed their preliminary surveys, and last week sent a committee to Arizona to decide finally the matter, and within few weeks we will know whether the road is to be built or not. If not, there are other parties here that will build two-foot guage from the mine to the Gila river, if the Silver King Com pany will give them a contract to trans port all their ores at S2.00 per ton. The company now pays S2. p per ton to trans port their ores by wagon to Pinal, five miles distant; therefore we conclude that a railroad from the mine to the river IS a necessity, and we know there are plenty of men willing to build it at their own ex- pense for the sake of transporting what ore the Silver King Company have actual ly in sight. Hence, it is only question of little time before the road will be commenced as well as new reduction works for the company. Meanwhile, the twenty-five cent dividends will be paid regularly. and every month they will add to their surplus, and perhaps give some |.exfra dividends occasionally. If it is pos |sihie to know anything about mines, we know that this mine is selling for less than one-half of what it actually has in sight.

FLORENCE, A. T., Oct. 2, 1S81
 ED. ENTERPRISE: A few notes con cerning the road being constructed by the Pinal Con. M. Go. may prove of interest This road is being built for the purpose e'I connecting the Silver DeIle mlne with the Gila river, at wlAch point smelter IS to be erected. and hope points forth to the time wh~-a the rich mineral will be con . veyed over the way in sufficient quanti ties to make cOrPulent stockholders shake obese sides. At present a force of some twenty-five men make the welkin (what ever that is, am not sure, but know 1t to be highly correct expression) ring, with merry sound of pick, shovel and axe diversified by the loud, reverberating roar of the blasting motley crew they present, of nearly all nationalities, ex- cepting (the Lord be praisedD the Heath en Chinee. I know of two Frenchmen, a number of stalwart Englishmen, an occa- sional Mickey, and one who, if not an Italian, should be ashamed of himself, for his countenance sadly bellies him. It would occupy too much of your space to describe in detail the routine of daily la bor, etc. I have in cratic career visited many camps, and can honestly say that I never saw one better conducted, nor one
 where the inner man was more carefully ,tn1 f,t. Aa # T a4
 touches epicurean me on tender spot--a
 sort of rem acu te tigiSte feeling. I can
 not refrain in this connection from laud-
 ing. the chef de cuisine who rejoices in the
 familiar title of Johnny" Cunning in
 the culinary art, his urbanity and care oi
 the twenty five hungry wolves, who come
 rushing in upon him three times day, is
 beyond all commendation. Vigilant, he
 watches the cormorant, or aggressive bi
 ped, and sees that the nervous and per
 haps more carefully nurtured weakline gets his full share of the bounty so amply
 provided.
 } Too much praise cannot be given to tho } gentlemanly Superintendent, MT. Thomas Cochrane. l never heard him administer one word of reproof; perhaps there was n' cause, while his manner of telling one t' perform certain duties is so happily con veyed that one feels as though conferrin.
 favor by simply obeying orders 3 would wager much, if l had it, that MT Cochrane will obtain more work from hi men than those who indulge in loud yer bosity and foolish profanity. The road i 7 now completed for distance of som three and one-half miles from the river l and the grade IS as excellent as possibl , under the circumstances. l shall ever re
 member this camp with pleasure, and an indeed indebted to MT. Cochrane fo s many favors, while as for the boys, t finer set of fellows never lived, and it vii s ever be my sincere wish that some day i
 the future l may have the pleasure c
 meeting some of them once more.

A SPECIAL to the Citizen from Tomb
 stone states that bloody street fight took place there Wedneseay, the particulars of which are as follows: "A number of cowboys have been in town for few days past, and have been drinking heav- fly and making themselves generally ob- noxious. V. W. Earp, city marshal, ar rested one of them, Ike Clanton, and he was fined twenty-five dollars in the Jus tics's court, and disarmed He left the court swearing vengeance. The Earp brothers shadowed them. Sheriff Be han also met four of them coming out of the o. K. corral and tried to pacify them. Just after he left them, the Earp brothers and Doe" Holiday came along and hos tilities at once commenced. About twen- ty-6ve shots were fired in quick success sion. When the smoke of battle cleared away it was found that Jim and Frank McLowry were killed and Bill Clantor mortally wounded Ike Clanton was slightly wounded and is now in jail. Al

A Credit to the Mining Industry
Mining RecOrd.l

Surely, upon the whole, the aspect of | the mining industry is not unfavorable as seen from the standpoint of the stock mar ket. In all quarters of our wide mining fields, are properties that are deserv0dly | favorite objects with investors. In far away Arizona, for example, is the Silver King, mine of the richness and perna- hence of which there is but one uniform assuring report. The stock, however, un- accountably declined to seventeen dollars per share, but of course rallied, and is selling at SIS. 25; at which rate the divi- dend amounts to nearly F per cent upon the investment, while the shares of the famous Calumet and Hecla, at the pres ent price, are giving less than 12 per cent to the investors. The Silver Kine ship ments for the nine mn'sfls A,=.ued Septem- Der 30th. afsgI egated about 5000, ,O00, of which the shareholders have recieved ssA50,0 ,000, while as yet the property may
 be regarded as not in an adult condition
 The present milling facilities strained to
 their utmost capacity, as we hear, cannot
 be judiciously enlarged until the compile
 tion of the railroad in that quarter shall
 enable them to erect works upon proper
 scale on the Gila river. Meanwhile, we
 hear that the underground workings of
 the mine are blocked with ore that cannot
 be milled The developments that have
 been made, including the new shaft al-
 ready down 422 feet, largely in ore, are
 of such character as to assure that the ore body is not merely large "blow out as was for some time believed, but per manent Assure formation of extraordinary extent and richness of mineral contents. We append letter which we have re-
 ceivcd from a reliable source ill regard tr this property:
 SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 6, 1891. SIR:-Yours in reference to Silver King is at hand We are Somewhat surprised . at the reports which you have heard, az we heard nothing but the most favorable and even enthusiastic reports from all ex perts and others that have visited the
 mine. Even "Arizona bears," by whicl
 we mean mining men who are prejudicet . against Arizona, come back with the mos X favorable reports of the mines richness f And this verdict comes from men who dC f not own a share of the stock, but whC V have gone through the mine as they wen . through Arizona. It is fact that the, l. require only twelve men to take out or, '- enough to keep the. mill running, and thi e actually the case, and has been for tn r. past sixty days.
 e You ask if there IS any truth that tn p end is in sight. Yes, we positively kno1 + that the end is in sight, but 1t is the frs f end, and we believe that the, 712-foo l. level, which is now opened and certainl 8 the largest and richest level in the mine + is not even the middle, and the latter en l. will not be seen for great many years t '- come. The production for Septembe d was SIC, ,500 and with the teaching tub k shut down part of the time for the wan n of supplies which they could not get acros s the Gila river, owing to high water.

TIE well-known firm of Lord < Will Hams, Tucson, have made an assignment in favor of their creditors. They were among the pioneer merchants of the Ter ritory and probably the heaviest govern ment contractors of this section. The latter fact they assign as a reason for their failure, but the old-timers are little skeptical on this point. Their failure, the Citi=ea says, will not affect any other mercantile institution of Tucson.
