The sham and the Real.

Every good thing has its host of inn tatur5. every genuine article has its couuterieits Bad manners and wicked habits have theirs also; but he who shams the bad never boasts of it, while they who ape the virtues of the good or simulate tue genuine never hesitate to place tEe counterfeit before the public ID their most alluriug tones. When these people mItate they always choose a pronounced type or popular subject to copy from, and when they claim to be as good as "So-aud-Sc,' or to sell an ar-

WATER FOR STOCK RANCHES.

It has long been known that the graz
 ing lands in the west part fl thIs coun- | try were among the finest in the Terri
 tory, and that with water they would become very valuable for stock ranches.
 But httle more than two years ago the
 writer came through from Ssnto De-
 mingo, Sonora, which is about TO miles
 little south of west of Tucson, via
 Gunsight. At that time water was ex-
 ceedingly scare, there being but two wells that of Brown and Wall, six miles
 south of Gunsight, and the Covered
 wells-on the road. Water has since
 been obtained in fivewells between here
 and the Cove .d wells, and three others
 are now being sunk, and We have no doubt water will be found in all of
 them. Water Is found from 20 to l5O feet in depth, and up to this date, no one who has dug for water has failed to find it. If water can be found with such certainty along the road between here. Gunsight and the Quiiotoa mines, why can it not be found to the northwest and southwest iu the same region of country? Two wells have already been dug on the PlOmo road to the southwest; in one water was found at depth of F feet, and in the other at a depth of 20 feet. There are also two wells west of the Quijotoa mountains in which water was found at a depth of % feet or there RbOuts. In our opinion, there are hGn- dreds of places n the western part of Pima county where water can be had by digging, and wherever water can be had there will be a good stock ranch, as there Is plenty of grass everywhere. A little energy and perseverance will secure 1t, | and those who first avail themselves of | the opportunity will be the ones who will profit by it.

MOUNT BEN NEVIS,

In honor of Alexander Mckay, the wIry Scotchman-the first white man that ever sealed its rugged and precipitous nights.
 The road from Tucson to the new camp is one of the finest in the Terri tory, and a good team can make Well don's camp at Peerless City in day and half, or an ordinary team can make 1t easily in two days. We left Tucson at 9 o'clock in the morning, and made Vel don's camp the following day at o'clock ln the afternoon, including the slight delay necessary to kill twenty-five quail by ihe wayside. Though Weldon's camp is within about 2,0O0 feet Of the boys on the hill (but at an altitude of l,40O feet, iUU feer vf bfUI 10 tsSs. rs-s--l----E---ls a Tn hailing distance, we had to delay our ascent until the following morning, as It requires two hours of most labonou5 climbing for those who Rre accustomed to it, while 1t IS mighty good half days work for one who has fingered ID Tucson during the lap of summer, and who makes his first effort at recreation in autumn days, by climbing Mount Ben Nevis: at least 1 found 1t %, and only reached the camp on the top of the mountain in time to hear An Sam call the men to breakfast, which was at F. o'clock m.

During the past SIX years 1 have, perhaps, examined as many mines for parties with view to purchase, and have travelled over as many miles by team, stage and railroad, as almost any one in the Territory, and have, think, condemed as many mines m Arizona and Sonora as any one who ever went in search of properties for legitimate investment; and, while l am not begging for believers, think that those who know me will at least give me credit for stating facts, as they appear.

MOUNT BEN NEVIS

Through which the principal lodes ex- tand. This mountain IS one or the Ouijotoa range though completely detached on the southeast, and is only with Q low range Of hills to the northwest; in reality, Mount Ben Nevis IS q distinct mountain, l,5OO feet higher than the nelghboring plain, and about seven claims or lO,5OO feet ID length. It may be cut anywhere at the base by a tunnel quarter of a mile m length, and in my judgment can be so cut at a depth of from 600 to oOO feet below the outcrop on the top or the ridge, with a tunnel from 3OO to 0OO feet in length, and at one polnt lm- mediately south of the house, near the dividing end line of the Peer from the Peerless, either lode can be cut at depth of JOO feet with 100 feet or less of tunnelIng, and tunnel of 300 feet will pierce the mountain through at the same depth. The average width of the ridge IS about 3OO feet, though 1t varies and at some nlaces is not more than loo feet wide. The first SOOfeet from the base up, IS at an angle of about 45 degrees. and from this point up to the apex of the ridge it is nearly per pendicular. The opposite side of the Peer and the north half of the Peerless Is even more precipitous, and the pre- cipice is neanly or quise 1,OO0 feet high; but at the southeast end of the Peerless
