gram and in the directorship. yet given in
the series; and IN saying directorship nothing

had conducted the concerts up 70 last night.
a painstsking, perseyerin2 artist, bat not SO
good director as Prof. Wellenstein bat may
be when he can count as many years IN the
calendar as the latter. Every selection on
the program was given with vim and precis-
ion as well as with manifestation of conf
dence on the part Of the performers. Prof.
Wellenstein seemed TO control every move
ment in the music with as much ease as
though he had an immense electric battery
and wires attached 70 each musician. which
he jerked when il was their turn TO 'epiel, :"
sofrly or forcibly. The program comprised
twelve numbers, two Of which were eingins
by q quartette composed OF Messrs.
Schultze, Wurzburg, l. Hahn. and
and +. G. Bran, who rendered their selec-
tions with nice taste and good time. Geo.
Smith was down for solo, The Fog Bell, "
but owing to some Misunderstanding through
which there was no niano In the house Mr..
Smith could not appear, thereby disappoint-
ing q good number Of those present. That
these concerts are going TO be one Of the
most popular features of the seasons amuse-
ments is vouchsafed In the splendid audi
ence present last evening, and a fashionable
one il was too.

THE Cannon Ball reduction works ID this city. which has been struggling for long timo against the fate of dire poverty, although gaining ground slowly, is at last to be lifted out of the want which has surrounded it and placed upon a basis that will render it both seli-sustaining and means of great good to owners of adjacent mines. A worthy and enterprising gentleman of this city has agreed to subscribe for sufficient of the capital stock to pur- chase Tock-breaker, coDcentrator. pans, and settlers. A roaster will probably be added, when the works will be in condition to successfully treat almost every kind of ore found in this county. With these additional facilities and the degree of perfection attained in amalgamsting metals even quite base by the peculiar process used will start this modest enterprise on the road to rapid wealth and prosperity. We re- joice that even such sraall reduction works prosper, fog their experimental progress gives faith of great outcome from this Ducleus.

TIE outlook for the future of Pima county Is truly encouraging. \ dvzen or more great mines will ts producing bullion within SIX months from this date, and a hundred or more of tue smaller mines Wlll remunerate their owners through occasional shipments Of high grade ore. There has been no time in the history Of this county when the rainbow of promise has shown so brightly and the hopes of the people were anchored so firmly upon the rocks of prosperity as the future dating from the present season. The Gunsight mines, the Pspago Chief, the Old Picacho, the Quiiotos bonanzas, the Esperanza, the Alta, the Blue Jay, the Total Wreck and many lesser known properties are just beginning to show the silver edge of their bOundless wealth, and their prospective output means unprecedented prosperity to our coun- try. Add to the mineral resources, it's wealth of live stock so rapidly increas- ing, and the agricultural growth now expanding with astonishing rapidity. and We eau see nothing but the roses of prosperity shorn of the thorns of mis- fortune.

IT has for some time remained an open secret that NIT. Albert Steinfeld, of the firm of L. Zeckendorf & Co, was pur. chasing ores for shipment from pros- pectOrs and owners of small properties, yet the fact had not been generally an- nounced to the public. Mr. Steinfeld stated to a CITIZEN representative yes- terday that he had received frequent applications from mlners for a lIttle ma terial assistance to enable them to ship the products of their industry to a place for reduction, and he therefors de- termined not only 10 render the assist ance asked, but to still farther enable the miner to prosecute his good work, by advancing seyenty-fve per cent of the assay value Of the ore, in cash or merchandise. Upon accommodating a sufficient quantity of ore for shipment it was sent forward for that purpose. Quite q Dumber of miners have thus been enabled to work their mines from the proceeds of the ore sold, and to de- veiop valuable properties. Something of this kind has been long needed in Tucson, and It Is a matter of congraiu- lstion to miners that a gentleman has engaged in the enterprise who Is abund- antly able to aid all who seek his ac- commodations.

WITHOUT the shadow of doubt the Republican county convention will place Thomas Hughes in nomination to-mor- row for County Treasurer. Mir. Hughes Is so we'll and favorably known that it is superAuous to speak of his upright career and excellent qualifications. While possessing every essential elem ent of inherent fitness, Mir. Hughes en- joys the intimate friendship of nearly every voter in the county, very many of whom are under personal obligations to him, and all will rally to his support without urgent solicitation.

As MATTER of deep interest to all the people of Arizona, we give in full the ansual report of Hon. r. r. Wilcox, Indian agent at the San Carlos agency. From this report the agency Indians seem to have made considerable prog ress in the direction of farming and stock raising, while all efforts at educat- ing the young Indians have not sue ceeded in removing theiI low, savage instincts, and they soon sIpk back into the habits and ways of the wild In
 dians. abandoning all the refnements of civilization. The agent recommends that the coal fields be not segregated from the reservation, but that they be leased on roy alty, to be applied to the benefit of the Indians. As whole, the report makes a more satisfactory e1- hibIt of the condition of affairs at the San Carlos agency than the people of Arizona had reason to believe existed.

H. c. HOOKER. OF GRAHAM.

Tine Democratic convention at Phenix nominated their strongest man. They knew the argument would be used against them. in the campaign, that for four years they have caused the Ter ritory to be misrepresented at Washing ton by Delegate whose obly claim to consideration was that be belonged to the unregenerated, unprogressive Bour- bon wing of the party, and was, per haps, fair specimen of it. Now, how ever, by way of demurrer to the charge, they put forward MT. Head, a really good man, and, begging to be forgiven for previols shortcomings, argue that because HE IS a good man the people of the Territory should join their old crowd in electius him in November. It Is specIous argument, and fair one, un- less the Republican convention next Monday can match or ovormatch every good quality of the Democratic candid ate. And we say to the convention that unless it does tender its nomination to the best man within its jurisdiction, the fair prospects for Republican sue cess which now exist will be dissipated. like mist before the morning sun, aud the day will be lost. We have men who will compare at every point with the Demo- cratic nominee, numbers of them; but they are not all available. Business and other interests prevent them from either making the race or serving as Delegate after election. We do not regard any of those candidates who are understood to be seeking the nomination as either available or competent All of them have elements of weakness which would make their candidacy failure. We take the liberty, therefore, of urging upon the convention the name of If. c. Hooker, of Graham county, as the man in all respects best fitted to make the race against Mir. Head. There is no question of Mr. Rockers ability to beat Mir. Head if be runs as the Republican nominee. There is no doubt of his thorough identifica- tion with the interests of Arizona and its people. He lives here. He has mace fortune here. He has acquaintance with the whole Territory and all of its people. He Is known as one of the most energetic and pushing men We have. His acquaintance with Pacific coast politicians, CoDsressmen and Senators is not surpassed; and it is needless to say that he has the respect of all. He is a man of ample means whose affairs are such that he can give the time necessary to n proper representation of Arizona at the capital, in dignified manner, with honor to himself and his people.
 Gentlemen of the convention, your bes. man is H. C. Hooker, of Graham.

MORGAN R. WISE, an cratic gentle man of uncertain caliber, who coDsti- tuted himself q candidate for the Dem- ccratio nomination for Delegate to Con- gress in Convention that recognized hir presence by not noticing him, rushes feIocionsly into print to deny the state ment made in Tuesdays CITIZEN that his votes in the Convention defeated Fred. C. Hughes for Joint Councilman, and be thereupon "gives away" an alleged compact between the delegates that reflects little credit upon himself as we'll as the other parties thereto. The CITIZEN usually makes its state ments upon what Il considers good authority, and upon this occasion it voiced but the open statements of the returned delegates, and SO stated in the item referred to. The ambitious gentle man seems to be totally wanting in the fine perception, discretion and iudg- ment which was embodied in his un- qualified recommendation oi himself, to attempt to make the CITIZEN respon- sible for the statements of others. From the representations in his rsm- bling communication, the truth of the item objected to seems to be fully con- firmed by the MonongahelR monster himself.

CANDTDATEs for office are very de- prayed creatures, no matter in what es- timation they were held previously. If they have walked strictly in the path of rectitude, they are considered either hypOcrites or sanctimonIous fools, and If little loose in morals they are con sidered pretty good boys, but hardly reliable. There are a thousand and ore faults attributed to candidate that be possibly never dreamed sat like night mare upon his aspiring head, but one of the most novel yet gravest objections was urged by an apparently intelligent man few days ago against prospec- tive candidate. He possessed all the necessary qualifications of ability and strength, but alasl he did not have the money necessary to make the canvass! We hereby call the special attention of she next grand jury to this mans great crime of poverty. He should be tried, condemned and sent to the penitentiary for life.

To MORROW the Republicans of Pima county will select its next county of- ficers. The labors of the convention are very important and sould be conducted with deliberatioD, care and judgment, with an eye solely to the public good. There seems to be a strong undercur- rent of resentment, against blindly fol- lowing party lines, and the candidates will be closely scrutinized before cleo ton day comes. It is therefore the duty of the convention to use the great est care and eircnmspectlon in its choice of candidates.

THE agent of tue Southern Ute In dians seems to be weaving 6 web of trouble about himself. He was in- structed by the Secretary Of the Interior not to issue these Indians passes to leave the reservation, owing to the bad feeling existing between the stock growers of southwestern Colorado and the Indians. These instructions seem to have been ignored, resulting in the recent outbreaks reported from that section. Agent Wilcox, of the San Carlos agency was recently interviewed upon this matter, by a Denver news paper reporter, and he says that the recent outbreaks in southern Colorado were clearly the result of Patten's care lessness and general incompetence. Why" said he, "I would have the same trouble with my Indians, who are the worst in the country which is truel. if l were to let them have their own way. Dur Ing the two years that have had charge of the agency have given only forty two passes to Indians to lesve the reser- vation, and those were given mostly to squaws and children to go out to look up stray stock which belonged to the Indians. If any Of my Indians leave the reservation I don't go after them with hymn book and sing psalms to coax them back. Not much. go after them with a shotgun, bring taem back and lock them up. Then get them to promise 10 be good; but l don't ask
 tiIeIn 10 reform until after have done something to reform them." The re.
 marks of Agent Wilcox smack some,
 what of levity, but his ideas are emi.
 nently practical.
