subscriber whether OF not it will support

orous support II he shall be a man un-
worthy to hold that great office man who,

The Times abhors and has counseled its
party to shun, We shall watch with great in
terest the efforts of those responsible for
such nomination to elect their candidate,
but we can give them no help The task Of
supporting an unworthy candidate wound be

donment of principle in cause doomed to

THE COLLISION.
A Lively Time on the Rock Island Il
Peoria Road Yesterday.

There was curious, and very nearly
disastrous collision occurred on the Rock
Island & Peoria road yesterday. The
engine of gravel train got off the track
near Coal Valley, a station about IA miles
from here A wrecking train was sent out
from Galva to get the engine on the track
again. Passenger train No. 2, going to
Peoria from this city. met the disabled
engine first, and after considerable work
the track was cleared. The train then
started on, but had not gone far when the
wrecking train was met on sharp curve,
the engine to which was backing up.
Both engines were reversed as quickly as
possible, but the trains came together
with shock The passengers were badly
shaken up, but no one was seriously in
jured. The engineer and fireman of the
engine attached to the wrecklng train had
jumped to the ground, and when the col
lision occurred the tank became detached,
while the rest of the engine started for
ward at a terrific rate, the engineer having
pulled the throttle WIDE open before he
jumped. Passenger train No. 1. from
Peoria was about due, as the wild engine
started down the track directly towards
it. Both engines, however, approached
on straight track, and the engineer on
the passenger train reversed his engine,
and started on the back track, closely
followed by the wild engine. The chase
was kept up for several miles, until the
steam finally gave out on the runaway
engine. and it was captured. Thus two
narrow escapes from fearful collisio ms
occurred in short space of time.

sGEN. ELLIoTT's SUCCESSOR.
In referring to Major Vance, the new
adjutant general, the Inter Ocean says:
"Major ]. W. Vance has unexceptional
qualifications for this important office, if
his previous training and occupation can
be taken for basis of judgment. His
career commenced as a cadet at West
Point, where he left at the outbreak of the
war, and Joined as lieutenant the regi>
mcnt which called Captain Grant, of
Galena, to its colonelcy. His services
during the war consisted mostly of staff
duty, being assigned to this by reason of
his training at West Point In 1878 he or
eanized and commanded as its captain
company c of the then Seventeenth Bat
tallion Ilinoios National guard, located at
Paris, serving in the line till 1881, when
he was appointed major and assistant
Inspector of the Second brigade Illinois
National guard. Everybody at all con-
versant with the history of our National
Guard knows that Major Vance's inspec-
tions were always thorough, and his re
ports steady and persistent in the effort
for greater discipline and effectiveness.
These reports were to a great extent the
cause which finally brought about the re-
duction and consolidation of the force,
which Gen. Elliott made soon after enter,
ing upon his office.

Arizona Ctttzen.
The thirty tons of machinery for driving
the Burleigh drills has arrived at the
mines, and the work of erecting it will at
once begin. 1t is estimated that about six
weeks time will be consumed in this work,
after which the initiatory steps will be
taken for erecting the mill. A double
compartment shaft will be sunk at the
company's well, four miles away, and the
water will be forced by heavy pumps to
the mill.
The reporter ~accidently dropped on" a
piece Of gratifying new while there, that
was intended to remain a secret for a
short time, but which, as a faithful chron-
icler of reliable information and newsy
facts, he feels in duty bound TO make
public. In the regular weekly mining re-
port of Supt. Smith, of October IS, he
stated without any flourish of words
or hurrahs that Peerless tunnel No. / was
in 1924 feet; at 312 feet it had cut the vein,
passing through a w~ell-defned footwall and
that the ore was good; that is to say, one
week ago they had penetrated the vein IL
feet without reaching the hanging wall.
They have since that time been steadily
pushing on through the vein and have not
yet reached the wall. This vein is not only
inconceivably wide but the ore gives assays
that will astonish the mining world. Even
Mr.. Mackey was astounded at the wonder
full sight that greeted him, and he after
wards remarked to an old-time friend that
the mines were much better than they had
been represented to him.
The permanencyxpf the camp is assured
beyond the shodow of a doubt, and it is not
an extravagant prediction to say that in
one year from to-day Logan City will be the
largest, most populous and prosperous
mining town in Arizona.
