tiring as worker and never false to sn interest committed to his care. Further more he is familiar with legislative work and enjoys an acquaintance and influence throughout the Territory that, coupled with his ability and experience would give him a commanding position in the assembly. He does not seek the position and advocates the sending of some other man, but his interests are here and if the people of Pinal elect him he will not re- fuse to serve them.
 The new steam hoisting works and oth- CT machinery for the Pioneer proper. was hauled through here Tuesday and will reach the mine by to-day. The new ten stamp mill, to be erected on the same property, is lying at Casa Grande await ing transportation. Mir. Geo. E. Hutch ison, president of the company, and Mir. w. B. Hsllings, superintendent, were here Monday, and left for the mine the same day, to make arrangements for speeding the erection of the mill. They want twenty carpenters, five masons and thirty laborers at once-see advertisement: in another column The mine is looking yell and, we are told by men who have examined tho property recently, shows a large amount of high-grade ora on the dump and in the levels. Superintendent Hellings deserves great credit for the in- telligent manner in which he has handled this mine, and also the South Pioneer
 A road from Butte to Picacho would not be good route for large teams. There is no free water on the route and teamsters would be compelled to buy wa ter from the time they left the river til they returned to it, and on about 25 mile, of the road would have no water st all Besides this they would have to haul theil feed from here. All they would gain by hauling over that route would be about
 four or five miles in distance, and the e1
 tra expense of water and feed would more than offset that. Furthermore it would
 take at least S1 200 to build the road, al of which would fall on the company
 Considering these truths, together witt
 the facth that the company now has
 better road to Casa Gr&nde, to assist il
 the building of which the citizens of Flor
 eucs contributed S1, 200, we think ther
 is no probability that this proposed ney
 route will be opened We don't believe
 in the first place, that the company woul
 incur this extra expense with no show 0
 gaining by it, and secondly, we do no
 believe they would be guilty of bad fait with the citizens of Florence who contrit uted SC liberally toward building thei
 present road. The company is not con l posed of that kind of men.
 Mr Aaron Mason returned, Monday from the east. He visited all the impol tant business centers of the Atlantl states and went as far north as Canad; Everywhere he found the usual summ, quiet prevailing in all branches of indu

On his homewa, g journey. Mir. Mason stopped at Denve | spent several days there with his old Go e orado friends, and visited the exposition Q The display, he says, ;s very co,nple l throughout. and in the mining depar : nlent is particularly 80. The Arizona e, g hibit is, he says, by all odds, the finest
 the building. It embraces q greater va iety of ores and minerals than any oth Q exhibit and exceeds them all i'll the ric
 ness and beauty of its specimens. I'll Silver King specimens are the crowniI !. glory of the mineral display, while u
 Tombstone and Silver Queen specime !, stand next as marvels of richness. B i the Silver King display is by no mea . the best the mine could furnish. 1T , display of ores at the King office is $ superior to it, but it is just as well tn
 the company did not send their best spc
