The Railroad Conference.

The railroad conference Tn Sal
 Francisco have closed their labors b.
 adopting agreements in substance a
 follows: Portland and San Francisco
 to be common points-making sam,
 rates to and from the east the North ern Pacific to make the same througl rates to SaI Francisco, via Portland
 that other roads make to San Francis co direct, and the latter to make through rates to Portland via Sar Francisco, that the Northern Pacific makes to San Francisco. All line maintain their present regular rates except such notifications as may here after be mutually agreed upon. A commissioner is to be appointed anc empowered to settle all disputed points, and enforce penalties on any company violating the agreement
 The Northern Pacific is given some advantages north of the California state line, to points other than Port lInd and Astoria, as also are other lines given corresponding advantages to points in California other than San IN
 Francisco. The agreement goes into effect October Ist, and expires by linn itltlon December 2I, 1884, but is terminable at any time by ninety days notice from any of the com, panles. It's commissioner was not selected and the appointment is not yet made. It is the oplnioh of rail. road managers, outside ofthe Northern Pacific representatives, that the prac ucal working arrangement will con. fine the Northern Pacific to it's own territory, as that road cannot afford to pay water freights between Portland md San Francisco, which, under the agreement, it will be obliged to do, and in addition, break bulk at Port land, if they seek to divert business to and from California from old over. land routes. No changes were made on through rates. The Northern Pa clhc will adopt the same rates on through freight to and from Portland as those which have been in existence on old roads between the east and san Francisco. The question of con- trol of the Atlantic & Pacific was no, raised by the Southern Pacific and Topeka & Santa Fe roads, which between them own nearly all the stock. The roads outside of the Northern Pacific will, among them selves, continue to maintain the same proportion of distribution on through business.

Mining in Northern Arizona.

The San Francisco Mining and Sci entifc Press, of October 9th, has tn, following;
 Since the completion of the Allan tic & Pacific railroad, a new impetu, has been given to mining in Northern Arizona. Valuable lodes, carrying high grade ore, have awaited its com pletion several years. Prior to tn, building of this railroad, the want O. rail or water transportation was mucl felt, the charges for carriage by avail able means being so high as to leave but small margin to shippers, ol high grade ores, and ores of averaa, grade could not be mined and ship ped except at loss. This has bee the cause of the backwardness in th, development of this section, man, owners preferring to let their property lie idle and wait for the Atlantic & Pacific railroad, with its attendan, lowering of rates on ore and supplies
 Many properties are now b.ine brought into condition for the re sumption of ore shipment. The hold CTS of several of the large coppe mines, as we'll as the owners of. hig grade silver bearing veins along tn, line of the railroad, will now ava, themselves of the improved facilitie,
 The McCracken and Signal mines of Owens district, tried the expen ment of reducing ore under the old expensive methods; but, while tn, mines produced several hundred thou sand dollars, heavy expenses inciden to their remoteness consumed wha would, under the present circum stances, have yielded large returns tc the stockholders. The same exleri ment was tried on a smaller scale witt the high grade ores of the Arnold anc the Hibernia mines of Cedar Valley. Now that handsome profit can b, realized by mining and working, ol by selling the ores, these propertie, are being put in shape for production. the latter mine having new life in- fused into It through the medium of eastern capital.
 Certainly nowhere in Arizona does better field present itself than in thls now accessible portion of the Terri tory. The lodges are large, ores O. high assay value, and wood and wa,e. abundant. But for the drawbacl | before alluded. to, the bullion product would have spoken for itself; and hap plly for the long patient holders d | the other mines. il is thing of tn, mast.

Ohio Democratic,

If the October election in Ohio has any bearing on the November ger eral elections, the tidal wave of Democ- racy will again sweep over the coun try, paving the way for a successful Presidential election for that party next fall. Hoadley, Democrat, was, on Tuesday last, elected Governor ol Ohio, by about 10, 1000 majority, and the Democracy also control both branches of the legislature in thai state. This, indeed, must be very encouraging to the party leaders, and will nerve them to renewed effort for the final action.

Mrs. Frank Leslie IS alleged to have gone to Europe to marry duke, bu changed her mind and bought pail of diamond earrings worth twenty. five thousand dollars. She showed sense. They cannot put on airs over her, and they don't have to be fed on terrapin and champagne, and they cannot sheer at this blarsted country, don't you knaw, and it won't cost anything to keep the earrings in fast horses, and they will not want her to buy yacht.

Joe Holt and Jake Thompson, the
 survivors of the Buchanan cabinet, are having little fun between themselves on the subject of who gave away the
 fact that a reinforcement had been
 sent by the "Star of the West" to Fort Sumpter in 1861. Holt says that Jake was the Judas, and that Jere Black and Buchanan were loyal to the government. Rather stale news at this particular date. Perhaps the next one that arises will tell us that old Toombs gave away the govern ment forts, arsenals and ordnance stores in the south at about that same date, or that since that time one Rutherford B. Hayes was fraudulently

Fish for Arizona,

The Los Angeles Herald says we ire to have salmon and shad rut in the Colorado river on our western border. A car load of young salmon and a car load of carp will be brought to Arizona in December, and liberal supply of shad. The carp will be placed in the rivers in northern Ari- zona, and the salmon and shad placed m the Colorado river. This is good news. and assures us of a supply of healthiul and delicious food at an early day. Such acts by tbe govern nent are wise and timely, and will soon supply the great mineral region with delicious and needful food. We trust that the good work will go on. The results of the fish commission for he past two years in Arizona have been of very great advantage to the people. Fish board themselves in our lakes and rivers, and cost nothing but the time required to catch them, and that is largely considered a pas time.

The story of how poor prospector missed becoming bonanza king is thus told by the Silver City Enter. prise:
 Frank Campbell, the discoverer of the Lake Valley mines, is now in S,eeple Rock district, where he has some very valuable prospects. Frank gave away about half of Lake Valley to a couple of Hillsboro people, with the understanding that they would come to the camp to live. After get ting possession of the property, they re urned to Hillsboro and remained there. At that time the Indians were very troublesome, and the mines were not considered valuable. After time Frank became tired of living alone in the camp, and left the country. It was but short time after his depart ure. until the mines were found to be regular bonahzas, the like of which had never before been discovered, and thus poor prospector, who braved all dangers and privations, let princely fortune sink through his hands. This is of frequent occurrence in a mining camp. It is very seldom that the original locat ,r makes stake out of his prospect.

Willing to Go to Work.

st. LOUIS, No., March PIT is asserted
that the members of the Amalgamated
Iron and Steel association formerly en-
pleyed at the Vulcan steel works in South
st. Louis, but who have been on a strike
for some months past, have notified the
Vulcan company that they are willing to
resume work at the reduction agreed upon
at Joliet and Pittsburg, but the men are
so reticent that no definite information
can be obtained, nor will the officers of the
Vulcan company talk about the matter.
The probabilities are, however, that the re-
port is true, but that the company are not
yet prepared to reply to the proposition of
the men. They are running their works
now, and have been some time past with
green men, and assert that they are
satisfied with the result and have repeat
