A SHELTER Is tO be built at the town of Crittenden and good authority says redu jtiOn works of large capacity vii! very soon be commenced at Calabasas These are signs of coming prosperity to the southern portion Of Pima county, and the money they will be instrumental in distributing among the mlners and trades people ID those sections, will be wealth created out of the hidden treasures Of nature. In all portions of our county there seems to be a general revival ID the mining industry, from the small chloridiug camps to the great bonanzas. The Quiiotoas are preparing to soon begin to yield bullion, and the many surrounding mines are awaiting only an opportunity to reduce the ores without the delays and expense incident to a shipment abroad. At Arivsca, there are ten stamps kept busily at work by Unthsnk and WhltmOre, and they are hourIshing in working ores from theIr own mines as we'll as custom ores. The Blue Jay entspgle- ments will be speedily ended, and 8 re- sumption of the production of bullion there IS looked for. The Columbia smelter is to start up within couple of weeks upon a vast quantity of ore now on the grounds and contracts for plenty to keep it in full blast for a long time, these are some of the productive probs- biiities of the next few months, and in the meantime other good properties are opening up view of vast future wealth and many of the richest stringers are belng worked for shipment abroad. In deed 1t looks as though our dull tImes will prove to be the mother of our pros perlt, and that the offspring will be greeted with universal joy.

A Remarkable Act.

From the Elgin (Scotland) Courier.
 While Mir. Alexander Shaw, of Klnetra, was in the fields the other day he heard the cries of a bird in distress. Looking up he saw a lark hotly pursued by hawk, which, by series of fierce dashes, tried to secure his prey; but the lark was successful in evading the attacks. The hawk, however, was gaining the mastery. and the lark, terror struck, seeing the man be- low, came down like an arrow ac- tually futtering into his hand, where 1t covered trembling. The pursuer followed until within six yards, but seeing what had oc- cured, he flew off in disgust. Af- ter a time the lark was liberated, when it scared upward singing, doubtless a song of gratitude to its deliverer. The circumstance is remarkable as showing how the greater terror conquered the less tho instinct of preservation in the bird triumphing over its natu- ral timidity.

A RicAteouS Veto.

To Governor Tritle special cred it is due for his veto of "a bill which had passed the Legislative Assem- ply, and which savored strongly of what is called special legislation. It was denominated "An Act to prevent the introduction of cattle from infected districts" and was undoubtedly in tne interest of certain stockmen of the Territory, who held their own interests para mount to those of the majority of the stock-raisers of Arizona.
 The bill prohibited the driving of cattle from Texas into Arizona, and the plea for the passage of the bill was that Texas cattle were diseased and consequently should be precluded from our domain, which, as a matter of fact, is un- tenable.
 The Governor, in an able and exhaustive veto message, declares the unconstitutionality of the bill, and holds that its provisions are arbitrary; that the bill was con ceived in sin and brought forth in iniquity is apparent, and the de- feat of bantam, fathered by selfish interests, is a matter of eongratu- lation over which a large and sub stantial element of our best people rejoice with exceeding great joy. The cattle interests of the Terri tory have rapidly advanced with in the past few years, and the own CTS of large herds Tn Texas and elsewhere, have looked to Arizona as the country where they could come in conscious security.
 The increase in cattle in Ora ham county lately has been i'm mense, and the defeat of the bill referred to will, peradventure, cause it to continue. Gov. Tritle has done we'll, and will receive the grateful thanks of those who real ize that the greatest good to the greatest number is fundamental principle never to be forgotten or ignored in the policy of republican governments.

It was to provide for just such emergencies as the present-or, in other words, to pre- vent vicious legislation, procured by means of bribery and other cor rupt influences, that the veto power was given the chief magistrate, and the Record believes that the governor, knowing as he must the iniquitious nature of the proposed measure, will if the billreaches him, veto 1t.
