me holland Shelter Takes a Fresh start This Time Under Most Favor able Circumstances.
LUTTRELL, A. T.. January 6

LCrTRELL, A. T., January 6.
 EDITOR CITIZEN: This camp now present businesslike appearance and' notwithstanding it's infancy. is Tar ahead of some of our neighboripr ones, who can boast of seeeing us and going us two better. so far AS years are concerned.
 The Holland shelter started up yesterday. after having been closed down several days, owing to their sup. ply Of iron ore not meeting the de- mane- This time it is under the man. agement of Mir. James Jameson. A smelter Of many years experience. NIT. Jameson has a fine reputation, and is considered one of the most sue. cessful smeiters Nn the Pacific coast. Al this writing everything is working most satisfactorily and bids fair to continue m gratifying way.
 In the Grasshopper, one of the Washington pool mines, they have certainly struck it rich. At depth of fifteen feet nve-foot vein of vel. low carbonate ore was struck, which, after having been carefully averaged, was found to go $97. 56 per ton silver. SS per cent. in lead, IS per cent. in Iron, and but a small per cent. in sil- ica. This is probably the finest smelt ing ore in the Territory.
 Hon. J. K. Luttrell, who is Super intendent of nearly all the mines in this district, is kept pretty busy lay ing out his plans for the future, as can we'll be imagined.
 Your correspondent predicts that inside of one year this camp will be one of the most prosperous in Ari- zona. The companies now coming in undoubtedly have money to back them. The climate of La Noria Valley is un. equaled. While the nights are cool, the days are pleasantly warm, and dur. ing midsummer the heat is at no time unbearable.
 The Holland mine is now looking remarkably well, and large force of men are engaged in sinking and drift ing. PENN.

It will be seen by the foregoing statement that Arizona has risen to the fifth place among the bullion -produc- CTS, while Colorado stands in the lead, We have not at hand the exact figures of Arizons's production in 1879, but if memory serves right it was in the neighbOrhood of Sl,e00,000. Our Terrltory's progress, then, IS most gratifying, and points toward sec ond, or perhaps first, place in 1881 .. Our readers, if they pause to consider the reduction works now in course of erection and in contemplation, will concede the plauslbility of this claim.
 We quote further from Wells. Far go < Co. s report:
 California shows sn increase in gold of S579,57 and decrease in silver of $360,S73 Nevada shows 6 total falling of of S6, 966, ,093; the yield from the Comstock being only s, 3l2, ,592, sS against $S, 830, ,562 in 1S19-a decrease of g, 517, gro. The product of Eureka District is $4, ,639, 025, as against S5,S59, 2GI in 1S79-a decrease of $l,220,236. Utah shows an increase of $9S2,0 Colorado shows an increase of $6, 67l ,474 over our report of last yesr-chiefy from Leadville District. Dakota shows an increase of $914,094.
 Judging therefore from the fact that Arizona has nearly qusdrupled her production, and the fact that the greatest increase of any other section is only about 40 per cent it is not too much tO predict that from present appearances Arizona will stand sec ond only 10 Colorado in the produc- ton of 1881, provided she maintains her present progress.
 The total product of the metals Tn the States, Territories and countries named for the past eleven years was as follows: In 1870, s54, 900, 900; 1871. s5S. 2s4, 900; ls72, s62, ,9S6, ,959; 1873, $72, ,258, 6s3; 1874, $74,40l, ,O45; 1875, $sO, ,sSs,O57; 1876. s9O,S75,173; 1877, S9S, ,421, ,754; 1878, ss1, ,l54, ,622; 1879, 75,S4s, 5O1; 1880, ss0, I67 ,9S6.
 A general review of the situation cannot but be convincing that the production of the precious metals on the Coast is on the increase, despite Ne vads's defectlon aud California's stand still position. One of the sur prising features of Wells, Fargo & Co.'S statement is the fact that our sister Territory. New Mexico, pro- duced but $7l1,3O0. The number, also, are not few who have estimated Arizons's production as high as seven millions, and in some cases ten mil lions for 1880; but as the company have unequslled means of gathering the necessary facts, thsIr statement must be accepted as approximately correct.

By the courtesy of NJ. B. Van Fleet, agent for Wells, Fargo & Co. in this city, the CITIZEN is furnished with the annual statement compiled by the company he represents, of precious metals produced on the Pacific Coast in 1880. It is supposed to be the most in fact. the Only-approximstely correct source of information in this regard obiainable. Where the metals do not pass through tine hands of the company as shipments, careful esti- mates are made, aided by all the facts it is possible to obtain and compiled by the most experienced and most thoroughly qualified statisticians. The annual report opens with the follow ing statement of the aggregate pro- ducts of the precious metals in the States and Territories west of the Mis- souri River, including British Colum- bia and the receipts in San Francisco by the express company from the west coast of Mexico: Gold, S33, 522, ,1s2 (4l.s2 per cent. ofwhole) silver, $40,- OO5, S64 (49. 90 Der cent.l; lead, $5,- 742, S90 G.l6 per cent. copper, Ss9S,- 900 Q.12 per cent.
