An Echo from one of the Missing.

The credit Of J. G. Mackenzie who spreads himself m the Lyons County
 Times, while here, vas for lOating and lyinC. but his credit for beans and hon. esty was like the seat Ot his pants. worn through. Any man that comes to Ari- zoua and honestly wants work cGn al-
 ways get it at remunerative wages, but fl he plays the vag b. IS liable to get into trouble. A number of the latter class escaped from the Tucson jail a couple or three weeks since. Possibly Mac kenzie was one Of them, hence his sen timeuts: "J. G. Mackenzie, who re- turned lately from Arizona, does not think that Arizona Is a good place for workingmen. Tombstone IS overdone both in business and men. There are too many people for the work that IS to be done. Aside from the miners who are from Nevada and other live places, the people are mostly occupied m eating beans and telling hes In New Mexico the labor conditions are but the same as In Arizona. The climate IS very hot but cool nights relieve IL ofsome of it's dis
 agreeable features. The people are in dustrlously indolent, and there IS large force employed in idling, as there are about 300 men for every job. In New Mexico the inhabitants pay great respect to the Sabbath, and cannot be persuaded to work on that day. So far as work IS concerned, there is sn almost unanimous respect for week days also. The general formation of the country is limestone but the lodges do not extend to any great depth. No shaft in Arizona eI- ceeds 600 feet in depth. and AGO feet Is the deepest that has vet been reached in New Mexico. The Lake Valley coun- try, where D. H. Jackson's mines are, IS held in bad repute by those who are posted; in fact, those mines are generally thought to be humbugs Four dollars per day is the highest wages paid m Arizona, and in New Mexico S3 is the highest wages paid to miners, while Texas sheep-herders receive g. and half breeds Sl 25'

Letter from Mesa Citv-

MESA CITY, Marlcopa Co, Sept. %.
 EDITOR CITIZEN. It was my purpose to call and see you before leaving Tue. son. to say that We had a very agreeable trip as far as San Bernai dino ranch. in Cocnise county, and over the Sonora line, which we regard as suit able for settlement, although isolated and some what exposed. Our party held two days meeting with the people of St. David. and found volunteers increasing our number to twenty-One men and seven women. The weather proved favorable and We went out by Tombstone, cross ing the Sulphur Spring Valley, and via the pass into San Bernardino Valley. A fine, natural road most of the way, with beautiful carpet of green grass on every side, and Mir. B. F. Joanson was interested as botanist in gathering the flowers and herbs 80 abundant.
 On our return to Tombstone We had m opportunity to dellver q lecture in the court room to respectable audi ence, on the faith and doctrines of tae Latter Day Saints. May We not on some future occasion enjoy similar op- portunIty ID Tucson? As a people Vt are to a great extent unknown and mis- understood, although the results of our mission and labor are before the nation Tor a half century past. It Is really refreshing in the midst of the flood | current of misrepresentation, to find l journal like the Tucson CITIZEN, have l the courage and independence to find | out the facts, and what Is more, publish | them.
 Although rumors were plenty of Indi- | an troubles south and east, wnlle cross ing their highway and returning, 1t WAS l our good fortune not to see one of them.
 In this county all is qulet. The late | rains have brought down the Salt River | upon us n towering flood, tearing out a portion of our river dam and canal. also filling up distance with sand, So that these annual storms and repeated l floods and breaks make it an expensive item upon the people of this place, and l m some instances the other canals be- low us on the river.
 We very much appreciate the kind ness and hberality shown us during our journey, and met at Tombstone some of your stalwart friends. In this conuec- ton District Attorney l.. Price favurably impressed us Rs a hiShtoned gentleman Our party dId not remain over night in Tucson, and leaving our friend, NJ. J. IrlIO there, who had come with us from St David to do some business, then followed up, but expect on our next visit south to call and see you again.

TOo Much for Too Little,

An effort by 6 party of gentlemen from
 one of the southern counties to secure
 from Governor Pitkin the pardon of a
 young man who is serving term ID the
 States prison, and which was unsuccess-
 ful, brought out a remarkable case of
 punishment for a light ofense which has
 been going on in thIs State. Governor
 Pitkin, in refusing the petition of the
 gentlemen from the south, remarked: "I believe in issuing pardODs in very rare cases only. Once Tn a while l find that the law has been severer than the crime warranted. It was only a few days ago that my attention was called to the case of lad who had served six years and had several more to serve for stealing q chicken-which, by the way, he did not succeed in carrying off. It seems that the boy was poor and that bis people had had no meat of any kind for SO long that they were getting des- perAte. There was farmer living near by who had barns stocked with grain, herds of fat cattle and a yard full of poultry. This was in Douglas county. This lad, accompanied by others who got away, went one night to raid the farmer hsn-rOost. He was caught, the others escaping in the dark. For this ISenss She boy has been in prison six rearH, and would have been there longer l lsd not written him pardon immedi- ! stely upon hearing of the case"

The Albuquerque Morning Journal
 says of the New Mexeo and Arizona
 Railroad now operated between Benson
 and Calabasas: This IS the road which IS to connect the Sonora road from Guaymas, on the Gulf of California, with the Santa Fe. The Sonora road is completed to Magdalena, a Mexican town about sixty miles south of Gala basas, and a stage covers the distance between the ends of the railroads, which are being constructed as rapidly as pos sible. It Is expected, says the Tomb stone Epitaph, that this gap will be closed up within thirty days. When the line Is opened to Guaymas 1t will be operated by the Santa Fe, and the whole line will be the longest railroad in the world under one management. This new line will also open the shortest route to Australia-1,4 400 miles shorter than by way of San Francisco. The hRrbor at Guaymas is sad to be one of the finest on the Pacific coast

While engaged in placing in position a tombstone in Forest cemetery, Toledo, the other day, caterpillar bit John Lloyd on the neck. Inside of three minutes his neck, right shoulder and breast were covered with large red blOtches, and a swelling formed on his neck nearly as large as his fist. He lost no time in sprInging on his horse, and it is said the rate of speed he at tained in his rapid flight toward town undoubtedly exceeded that of the famous John Gilpin in his wonderful ride.
