 Considerable work is being done on properties in fhe vicinity of the Am, rican Flag mine, 16 nIIes nearer Tucson than the mines already mentioned. The Apache Girl owned by Zimmer- man & Parkinson, is looking es' pecially well.
 In addition to the immense budies of rich ore in the Santa I'atalinaS, ihe surroundings are scarcely equaIed by any locality in Arizona. The mountains are covered with vast forests Of pine and other timber, and game is there in such abundance as to make it a veritable sportsman's paradise. Springs of excellent water are numerous, and the eli mate is nearly perfect.

FOR a Cheap Promenade concert.

10 me EduOf Of Inc ittpuOttcdR:
About a fortnight ago there appeared in
your editorial sayings brief suggestion to the in
augurationI managers which appeared to me to be
well worthy of adoption. 1t was to the effect that
a promenade concert should be given in the Mu-
scum on the evening following the ball, the deco
Tations to be retained and the same high class
music secured Thousands, like myself, are not in
clined to the dissipation of late hours in
separable from a ball, who would en-
joy promenade concert. The question of
expense is a consideration with others innumer-
able, leading them to the same preference. Moral
and religious grounds viii influence another large
class Of people to prefer the lighter pleasure of
popular promenade concert amid the decorations of
the Museum to the dress parade of fashions vota-
ries. l remember being present at q concert of
this description, given some years ago in the Ex-
position building in Chicago, at which fifty thou
sand people were congreg6ted to hear Miss Emma
Thurston sing and a celebrated band perform.
Fifty cents admission and we'll selected pro-
gramme viii ill the Museum, large class of our
community and visitors will be entertained, and

your Golfers to help out with the bills What do

A Novel Proposition.

To the Edu0T Of The republican:
I do believe that since the beginning of
history capital ofa great and rich nation has
been treated so meanly and shabbily by the ruling
powers as hasthis our Washington. One would sup
pose that some influential men might be found
in Congress with taste and culture enough to take
lively interest in this beautiful city and in its
improvement and adornment! Now, Mr.. Editor,
would propose plan which could not fail to at
tract the attention of the whole country to our
needs and to secure the cooperation of the public
press in our efforts. Let a meeting
of our citizens be called, and let
this meeting appoint committee to lay
our grievances once more before Congress. Then
let arrangements be made for this committee TO be
escorted on their way to the Capitol by the whole
population of the District, so to speak-Say thirty
or forty thousand citizens and residents. This is
not an impracticable plan; it could be carried
out and my word for it, the result of such an I'M
posing demonstration would be that all our rea-
sonable demands improvement Of the river, in
crease of the police force, new bridge, &c. would
be granted. S.

THE committee, who have given such
exhaustive attention to the abuse of the
franking privilege, is about to report, it
is hoped, though really they have not
said SO. And its memory, collectively,
may be said to be getting shorter every
day now.

The Ocean Mail Spigot and River and
Harbor Bung-hoIe.

The Senate saved at the spigot the
other day by defeating the one million
appropriation for carrying ocean mails in
American ships, and the House yester-
day lost at the bung-hole by voting ten
millions for the improvement of alleged
rivers and harbors.
The opponents of the ocean mail ap-
preparation said it would not promote
ship-building for the Government to
patronize American built ships. Some
people said, too, that railroads could not
be proftably built of American iron,
but they have been. That will be
answered by saying that the roads
were built by Government aid. Well,
would not Government aid be well
bestowed in paying for mail carry
ing if thereby our ship-yards could be
started up to activity? If mail contracts
should overcome to some extent the dis
advantage of the greater cost OF American
over foreign ships, would the protection
thus afforded the ship-building interest
be inconsistent with our late presidential
campaign tracts and speeches? And then,
if ever We are TO have any of the worlds
carrying trade again, why not try it first
upon the line so warmly advocated by
our ship-building interests? If reason
able pay per mile for carrying the mails
would really enable our mail-carrying
ships to compete for freight with foreign
built ships carrying none of our mails,
surely We should not fail to promote ship
building TO the extent of the necessities
Of mail service everywhere on the ocean,
The industry thus placed on its feet
might soon go alone, as have others which
first required aid.
If all failed, then the advocates of free
trade i'll ships could well demand such
changes in the navigation laws as would
revive the carrying trade by allowing
American ownership of foreign built YES
sells. Prove that ship-building cannot
thrive in this country with reasonable
Government patronage, and the obstruc-
tons to free ships would disappear. If
the experiment shoIIld result favorably,
who would not rejoice?

THE Democrats are trying to make a

is only one thing to be said at the present

all the reform it needs within the limits

rection it has no occasion to turn to DEM
