AS we sat nIbbliug q tOrtilla and taking an occasional plnch in tempting pan of fnj0lts, Drowned 10 q crisp like the hair of the moon-eyed MongOnan who washes dishes at our boarding house at Tar Flat the color of the hirsute appendase beng so indistInguishabl thai it coull hardly be discovered as it meandered in and out among each individual frijolc (or bean, if that suits you bettcr, our thoughts wandered off 10 those happy days when we were sorting ore on the Comstock lode and had invested our scanty earn lngs In Con. Virginia and imagined we were millionaire. We did not wear good clothes in those halcyon days (hal. cyOn sounds well, but we don't know what Il means), but we were supremey, truly happy. Our nind-not much of mind to be sure--was not bothered in agoniz- ing efforts to make folks believe We were all that was by nature belonging to the good, the true and the beautiful Now, alas we have declared ourself as masher, and have got 10 fight it out on that line. In the solitude of our chamber we may slap our manly breast with our noble right duke and eXclaim, "Wha, a d--d old fraud you are!" But if the girls and the public generally don't tumble 10 our little racket, we may be happy yet. At this moment the mefitations which were reviewing our fresh young life were inter rupted by the advent of Josephine or But tercup, or whatever tine fair maids name might De, who entered by the left upper entrance from the kitchen, pois- ing upon t,e pink tips of her fingers plate of hash. Five morning cocktails had somewhat bedimmed our vision and so as not to Dc too far of wrong, there being two girls in the house, We addressed her in sc- ductive tone as follows. Morning, But terphine!" It was with certain tinge of asperity in her usually soft voice that she replied, DOn't talk to me, you old stiff, unless you can put up for last weeks board; you have given me all the chin music I'm going to stand" "Gently, gently, Josecup, we are q poet as well as an editor and are not thus to be trifled with.

 At this moment we felt something not unlike tEe fingers of masculine hand digging into the scruff of our AGonis- like neck; next, something took up the slack in the seat of our unmentionables, and the balance had better remain untold, We have about concluded to go back to the ore dump, for we have been found out.

DOS CAnExAS ,.nLn ynrEs

Major ivowniug, who WAS n, town this week, intcTms Us that .e will soon start his saw mil running.
 QuiNa nnmto- of the citizens of Willcox have visited Dos Cabezas during the week: availing themselves of the beautiful drive over fine roads.
 A. k. Fay, editor of the Gold Note, has been appointed deputy as- sessor by J. H. Behan, to place the valuation on properties real and per sonal, in Dos Cabezas and vicinity. He will commence the work next week.
 Several small shipments of bullion have been made since our last issue, through Wells, Fargo & Co. In con. sequence the handsome and efficient agent, Chas. Washeim, has been made happy.
 Dr. Barrow reports the little son of Henry Severn as lying ill with ty. phoid fever. Also son and daugh. ter of Mir. and Mrs. Waughtel, who are suffering with pneumonia.
 On Thursday morning the early riser might have seen the ground and mountain sides covered with snow; and yet our territory is generally condemned on account of the excess sive heat.
 Mark Ellis has obtained a years lease of the Baltimore mine from Mir. De Long, and will proceed forthwith to take out ore and haul it to the mill, and we have no doubt will meet with the success he merits.
 C. w. Barrow and B. Steibel have each located one hundred and sixty acres of grazing land, situated on the main Bowie road, eight miles east of Dos Cabezas. There is a good we'll of water on the ground, and it must necessarily be of great value in time.
 Work is rapidly progressing on the Jumper mine. New teams have been added to their already large force, and ore is being extracted and hauled to the mill faster than that institu- ton can work the same. The boys holding the lease are determined to improve their short time, and realize as much as possible from the yield.

The Hear Cave.

From the Dos Cabezas Gold Note.
 Messrs J. NJ. Riggs and H. Le-
 land have leased portion of the Bear Cave mine, and have com menced work on the same. This, however, does not interfere with the work of the owners, Messrs. Hart & McGregor, who moved their equip ments to that mine last Monday, and have been taking out ore ever since.
 It Is well known that the ore is of high grade, and the only hindrance to the parties realizing handsome re- turns from their labor will be the probable failure of the mill to work the rock, on account of the large supply already on hand, and now be. ing hauled. We are informed by the president of the mill, though, that he will endeavor to divide its time equally between the different mines, and thereby give all chance. It Is thought that when it becomes generally known that the ore furnished is beyond the capacity of the mill to reduce, and that there are many miners, owning valuable prospects here, who are simply waiting for an opportunity to have their rock worked, before making extensive developments, that capi. talists will recognize the chance for u profitable investment, and erect another mill of greater capacity. It is certain that it would be kept run- ming constantly, and as it has been definitely nscertained that our ores are easily worked and the quantity m sight is almost inexhaustible, there could be no risk in such an under taking. What company will be the first to enrich themselves, at a com- paratively small outlay, and at the same time benefit thespamp2szs..

A Caution.
TOMBSTONE, April r..


 EDITOR EpITAPH: Don't you think it would be q very polite thing to do, viz, remove the cowboy Hunt, from the hos pital to the County Jail: It appears to my quarters at any moment, and l feel sure that every justice.loying and law-abiding citizen resident in this county would be glad to hear of his incarceration in the public prison where he will, at least, be in secure hands for the time being. Let the proper officials see to it that the mis- creant shall not escape from justice. By publishing this in the first issue of your valuable journal you will greatly oblige. Truly Yours. ARGUS.

 FLORENCE ITEMS.
om the Flotence Enterprise.

From the Florence Enterprise.
 Jere Freyer Is having ore sampled
 from one of his claims in the Casa Grande district, with a view to ship ping ore.
 For early vegetables this valley takes the lead. Mir. Remy had green peas large enough for the table three weeks ago.
 Mir. Thos. Graves was here this week, serving on the grand jury. His prospects in the Cole district are brig htening.
 4 Boston mining company will commence operations at Mineral Hill soon. Their stock has been issued and all disposed of, except forty thousand shares reserved for work ing capital.
 Judge Stilwell opened court on Monday and disposed of business expeditiously. Our calendar was light, but the judge had his hands full in other counties. He has dealt with seven hundred cases in the dis trict this year, and some of them have been long and tedious. This is too much for one judge, and another judicial district should be formed.
 A new and very important gold discovery was made recently about seven miles from Old Camp Grant, this county. The ledge is eight feet wide and Is said to average $50 per ton all the way across. The report further states that the claim was sold last week to Tucson parties for S5O,- GOO cash. We could not learn the name of the claim, but Mir. Ochle- tree is one of the discoverers.
 The Silver King company talk of putting in another roaster; their roasting facilities are not in propor- tion to the capacity of their stamps. We would like to see this company increase its works to about five times their present capacity. The King could be made to yield S700,000 or $S0O,OOO a month as easily as it does slOO,OOO and $5O,OO0. The only thing needed to accomplish this is milling facilities; the ore is there.
 Judge J. D. Walker came in from the Vekol Monday. The Papago h. dians have sunk a well about fifteen miles from this mine and struck good | and abundant water at depth of | eighty feet. They applied to the judge for assistance in curbIng the we'll, and he will grant thelr request upon his return to the district the latter part of the week. He says that the Indians would sink wells at all thelr villages in that section if the whites would encourage them little oy an offer ot tools and instructions. The Papagos are the nearest ap- oroach to civilized Indians to be 'ound in the territory.

DENVER LETTER
National Mining Exposition -- Shall
 Tombstone be Represented

DENVER, CoLo., April II, 1882.
 EDITOR EPITAPH: There is very widespread interest in the National Mining and Industrial Exposition to be held in this city from August to September 30. The exposition building, the foundation for which is now being laid, will be 800 feet long, 312 feet wide, and costs, in- cluding the grounds, s200,OOO. It will have the distinction of being
 THE FIRST NATIONAL EXPOSITION held in the mining country, and the first having the exhibition of miner als and of mining machinery as a leading feature. Incidentally the exposition will represent all the re- sources of Colorado, Wyoming, Mon. tana, Idaho, Arizona and New Mex ico, including the common metals, iron, lead, copper, etc., the coal mines, quarries, forests and fields. It is confidently believed by its pro- jectors that the facts concerning the wonderful resources of our country will be thoroughly made known by the exposition, and will result In the establishment of manufactures and the introduction of new and better mining machinery.
 TOMBSTONE SHOULD EXHIBIT.
 An exhibit ought to appear from the Tombstone mining district which will effectually call attention to at least one portion of rich Arizona. A committee of enterprising citizens ought to take the matter in charge at very early day, and, on appIl- cation to s. T. Armstrong, secretary, space will be reserved free of cost. When the exposition is over a per manent museum will be selected from the best mineral and botanic exhibits and kept open the year round.
 METROPOLITAN CITY.
 The growth of Denver is continu- ous and rapid. This is in every re- spect metropolitan city in its con- merce, manufactures, educational system, hotels and amusements. It is the best outgrowth of the vigor and enterprise of the high country, and is daily increasing its railroad facilities, commercial exchanges, etc. We shall be glad to welcome you, MT. Editor, and other leading citizens, to high seats in our great exposition, and to participation in the recreations and amusements Den- yer affords. c.

A CITIZEN of Tombstone informs us that a party numbering thirty, including Pete Spence, Ike Clanton, Ringo and Jack StilweI, brother of the murdered Stil- well, recently of Fort Sill, started out Tn search ot the Earp party on Thursday night.-Star, April IS.
 There is not a word of truth in it. Ike Cianton and Stilwell are both in Tomb. stone, and Pete Spence, with two or three others, started for Sonora Saturday last. The Star has been imposed upon in this matter, as it has in others in relation 10 Tombstone affairs.

Governor Tritie's Lambs.
ie San Francisco Daily Report.

From lGe san trAnclsco Daily Report.
 Ex-Senator William M. Stewart, who recently returned from Tomb stone, Arizona, says the state of so- ciety there is most unsatisfactory. The disorderly element is growing more and more desperate. Despe- radoes, driven out of Texas and New Mexlco have congregated Tn Cochise county, where Tombstone is situated, and they are making it troublesome. It is impossible to keep q COW or horse, except under lock and key or guarded. There are probably 100 in the gang, but if 15 or 20 were taken out there would be no organiz- ation left. The newspapers are very cautious, and the outside public are not aware of the reign of terror which exists. He thinks things can not last long as they are now. Gov ernor Tritle, he says, ts the man for the occasion, and if the people will sustain him, and the government give him means, he will soon settle whatever troubles may now exist.

THE INDIAN QUESTION.

General Sheraman is reported as having said, in Tucson, that he is opposed to removing the Indians of Arizona to the Indian Territory. He believes the effort should be made to civilize them where they are. When the talk first began about having the San Carlos Indians re- moved the ErITAPH said that it did not believe that it would ever be done, and it is of that opinion still. The thing is impractlcable at the present time, and It is question if it does rot always remain so. The question to be solved, then IS how to treat the Indians so that they shall not continne a standing and open menance to the whites who surround them. The EpITAPH says now, as it said when it discussed this question before, that they should be disarmed; should be confined to the reservation, and if found without it's boundaries, should be summarily ar rested and punished; that they should be put to work and taught how to earn an honest liv- ing. When they find. that a full belly depends upon useful industry they will be only too glad to do something whereby they can have tine wherewith to appease their appe- tites. There is no reason why the Apaches of San Carlos cannot soon be made as near self-supporting a, the Maricopas, who for thrift con- pare favorably with the average borderer. Anyone who has trav- eled through their settlement on the Gila about harvest time can testify m relation to their well titled farms and abundant crops. In 1880 this tribe sold over three million bushels of wheat to Hayden and the mill at Phenix, for which they received the highest market price. The reports from San Carlos are to the effect that double the amount of land is under cultivation this year that was last, which fact shows progress. The troubles of the past have arisen from allowing them arms and permits to go of the reservation to hunt;, too much feed; too little work, aula not heavy enough hand n the 1a6iais, ,srssiop q ' stial sifsjss Tbs
