The location of the national conven-
tions next year has already begun to
attract attention. Cincinnati is said to
have entered the field for the purpose
of securing the Republican gathering in
case Ohio does not go Democratic, while
Chicago is represented as eager to shell
ter the Democrats for a week. Long
Branch is suggested by those inclined
to pleasure-seeking, and San Francisco
by those people fond of long journeys.

Globes outlet for her copper, gold, silver and lead must be by the way of tho Atlantic & Pacific road. Tucson cannot offer single proposition which has the Southern Pacific in it, as fac tor, that will be acceptable to us. The policy of the s. P. people has always been srab-alI one, and it has never been known to make a single con. cession which has not been forced from it by its fears of 8 competing line. It has been guilty of the foulest discrim- nations, and has built itself up into the position of great monied institu- tion by systematic extortions, and barefaccd robbery. We favor corpo- rations and have always done 80, be- cause the worst of them benefit new countries; but we are not willing that Globs should put up with single im- position, while 1t has the opportunity to bc independent

With all due regard for MT. Thorn ton of the Republican, we think he has made serious mistake in becoming a newspaper acrobat upon so short a notice. After unqualifedly condemn ing Agent Wilcox, he just as fully endorses him now, and that in the face of the fact that he was apprized of his too nasty later opinions by man at San Carlos who certainly was qualified to know. We say with all kindness that, in view of the fact that the Board of Peace Commissioners have deter mined upon an investigation of MT. Wilcoxs connection with the Agency, and that the BELT has offered, and offers new, the proof of his tyranny, lying, debauchery and stealing, the action of MT. Thornton cannot be ex- cused on any other grounds than that he lacks stamina, or is too full of that beautiful attribute which covers a multitude of sins.

We have proven to the satisfaction of every fair-minded man, that Wilcox, Teller's appointee, is consummate scoundrel and a low-livcd debauchee. We have before us, now, the proof that while he was Illuminating about the admission of liquors into the Agen- cy for sick woman, he, with his mil itary friends was making merry over cocktails and whisky straight. We have also the proof that lon or about the 2Oth of March, 1883, five sacks o1 barley, one hundred pounds of sugar (marked I. D. fifty pounds of coffee
 forty pounds of oatmeal, one gallon oi kerosene, and other articles" were taken by "the Agency tcamster" to the camp of the cattle contractor. When the investigation is had, into thi. mans wickedncss, we will produce satisfactory proof that he is no more fit to be Government Agent at Sar Carlos, than he is to be a representa-
 tive of Nineteenth century morality.

The Belts Weekly Sermon.

Friendship" is taking subject for sermon. One of the preachers in Globe treated it intelligently and prettily last Sunday night. Starting with the root, acquaintance, friend. ship is the developed plant and love the full-blown flower. In these wild mountains, in the early days, when hard times sat beside every hearth, and looked from every larder, and every mesquite bush was an Apache fortress, friendships were formed be. tween men, which will last forever. "True friendships" said the minister, "were only known in heaven" Heaven has no fairer friendships than those of earth-the story of Damon and Pythias is not all fiction. Men
 have died for men. Filled with the fervor of religion, men have walked smilingly to the stake and stood there till their souls went out on the curling wreaths of smoke, like Jim Bludsoe's s did lin the smoke of the Fairy Belle;" filled with love for their kind, men have faced the black vomit of the south and the icy rigors of the north; sailors have stood on the decks of their ships with the water stealing up with its cold embraces; engineers have stood with steady hand upon the throttle valve, while the hot steam was turn ing their flesh into blistering mass; fremen have faced the dangers of smoking buildings to save life and lost their own. The world is full of Jim Bludsoes, Latimers and Pythiak, aud the friendships they have shown to their kind can have no higher grade in the realm of heaven. He who is called the Son of God, and who died for a whole world did no nobler thing than he-who 7dies for a single friend.

No railroad, be it broad gauge or narrow gauge, that is tributary to the Southern Pacific can benefit Globe, or become popular with its people. We know how much it helps our copper interest.

About t,oppen

A great many people in writing or talking about copper, use two-edged arguments, under the supposition that they will only cut one way. Pope & Bro. metal brokers, of New York, use the fact of the increasing depth of our mines as an argument against an. in. crease in the production of ore, but it is just as much a drawback anywhere else--it costs more to. hoist 400 feet than it does 100, at Lake Superior as well As in Arizona. They say that we have to work ''seven per cent. ore, and ;ts leanness will shorten the output" While Arizona has produced enormous bodies of phenomenally high grade ore, and has much of it yet, it must be admitted that they are necessarily limited; but even its seven per cent. ore is more than fifty per cent. better than Lake Superior's best, and of that there is comparatively inexhaustible quantity. This same authority says that our ores,. with very few. excep- tions.s have proved surface deposits which have given out entirely" and then cites the case of mine which
 "at the bottom has turned to sui. phurets." The one statement is fiat contradiction of the other, as the pres. ence of the sulphurets is . tolerably safe guarantee of the permanency oi the vein. With the means of working ores, as perfect here as at Swansea (and they will be) and the sulphu, saved as a. secondary product, every pound of this ore will be valuable. A reduction in the grade of ore need no' necessarily mean smaller output--i
 becomes question of more reducing facility--it is a modification of tn, merchants motto of ~large sales ant small profits" The conflict betwee, the Lake copper and that of Arizon' sannot always bc with the latter il the leads because the former has diff entities to contend with that ihe latte
 has not, and the existing troubles Q the 4Arizona copper men, are vanish ing before railroads, cheaper coke an' cheapening transportation. In on
 thing we agree with Pope & Bro., ant that is that fifteen cents is a very loy valuation for ingot copper, and W, "do not anticipate the extraordinaril, low prices for which some people look.

The Interior Department isnot such terrible juggsrnaut after all.

The policy of the Atlantic & Pacific

The policy of the Atlantic $ Pacific Railroad Company in connection with their lands is an entirely generous and fair one. They own l5,000,000 of acres along the hne of their road, which they propose shall be sold at a fair valuation. Settlers who hold land located by them before the A. & P. mace their contract with the govern ment will receive a valid title from the company, and no honest man who has taken up land through ignorance of its ownership will be interfered with. We commend to the people of Arizona, a comparison of this more than fair programme of the Atlantic < Pacific company, with that of the principal owners of the Southern Pa citic, who, as the "Central Pacific, " caused by their niggardliness, and dis regard for right, at Russell Slough, in California, a revolution whose climax was murder.

The marrow gauge chimera still troubles the Citizen. There cannot be any confidence felt by the people of Globe in the enterprise, because they know nothing of its make up or the ability of its management to do what they. boast about. Globe cannot sup port two roads, and so it wants the best. Itwants the Mineral Belt road. It wants it because it is standard gauge, and so obviates the necessity for breaking bulk; because it offers a shorter route to California and the east; because it makes all of this sec. tion of Arizona independent of the Southern Pacific; because it gives us the benefits resulting from our con- tiguity to the timber reserves of the Mogollons and the Sierra Anchas; because it makes us, when our connec. tion with the Guaymas road is com. pleted, a portion of the Atchison & Topeka system of roads, and because it is the result of local enterprise and will be managed for the advancement of local interests, and not for the glo. rifcation of few Tucsonites whose honesty has never reached the point of publishing their names and inten. tions. The narrow gauge road does 1 not offer single inducement to offset those enumerated above.

'"What is the reason Wilcox can't tell the truth?" Because it lies at the bottom of a well, and the water in the San Carlos well is 80 hot "that," ac. cerding to Wilcox's statement, 'it boils.ss The Agent does not want truth badly enough to parboil his hide diving after it.
