 individuals of voracious veracity browsin
 around this county who need setting dow
 upon. They come disguised in all sorts O
 sheeps clothing and usually wind up by yput
 ting up @ dead-fall, unless they give up th' ghost with the jim-jams first. Sometime
 they are on the newspaper correspondent
 racket, or are mining experts, crotched
 stick locators of hidden springs. or jumpers of county roads, or toll collectors, town-site l stock ranch or bonanza kings, whose whole stock in trade is unlimited cheek and vo racious appetite for whisky and whose ca jayhawker is after scalps, Our people soon tire of these tramps and they had better prepare soon for the grand bounce. Ivrite this in all earnestness.
 The railroad has come and gone at the rate of two miles per day. Orders have been received to push the track laying at that rate until the Colorado river is reached. The road will be completed to that point within forty days.
 The railroad officials are very decent men and in their association with our people leave good impression. They are as diff ferent from the advance guard of mud slingers as the seven year itch is from Rus sian caviar. The odorous reputation some of those half civilized yahoos have left az a commemorative monument in our fair Ari- zons is worse than garlic patch or a Chi nese op;am den.

Mir. Howell goes after matters here in q business like manner and doubtless will round up some of the abuses that have pre- vailed heretofore and get things down on a basis that will give all satisfaction. He will buy ore in any quantity and pay cash.
 The mill to-day footed its whistle and from the volume of smoke coming out of the stack must have made the wood supply sui fer.
 The mill is to be overhauled by compe- tent men and gotten ready for an ore run within thirty days.
 Several miners have interviewed MT. How ell and they tell me all is well. We shouldI all feel better if he could remain here. Olai Arizonans like good hard business senss in strict fulflIment of all prom ises and absolute honesty, they will then pour forth the valuable fruits of their honest toll in the shape of ore like the open ing of flood gate. Mir. Howell looks to me like fair, square man and his reputa- tion is good. MT. Webber, of Tip Top, said to me: "Mr. Howell will do to tie to-
