Mistakes of Arizona Miners.

Prof. c. r. Williams, of San Francisco. formerly 0 member of college faculty. but now engaged in mining in the southwest talks ID an interesting way about Arizona mIues.
 "The trouble with Arizona mines" be said, 'has been that mistakes have been made in their management. Eastern capitalists would get hold of them and send out eastern engineers, unHcqnaint- ed with peculiarifies If the business in the west, to manage them. They would 9o '0 great expense m putting in costly a.,.,E C. %. cushing, etc. before they knew anything about tine value of their prospective output. The consequence was that go much money was spent and 90 few dividends declared that the capi- talists became disRusted and dropped the business. lt their managers had gone slow and taken out enough ore to insure work for their mills for sometime to come, and made sure of each step before taking another. the result would in many instances have been entirely different. There is, l believe, q large quantity of very valuable mining terri tory Tn the Territory, and 1t will event. nally be developed and property work. ed. to the great remuneration of its owners, There are only two prominent mines Arizona, the Silver King and the 'Vulture,' which are DOW making any amount Of money. There are some smaller interests which may be doing well, but they cannot cut large figure" -Globe-DemocrBt.

 varying from len to twenty miles on each side, with tributaries from the several mountain ranges. Natural sites are frequent for storage reservoirs, which require some considerable ex
 pendIture of money and skillful engi- neering to make them seryiceable. Tn, rainfall has not been so excessive in any one locality that ordinary means of storage would not retain the water for futuIe use and the improvident waste avoided. 4 season of approximation followed by one of extreme dryness, does not afford tine farmer the favorable natu-- al conditions he requires to successfully till the soll, and the one extreme IS as disastrous as the other. The storage of water ln Arizona for irrigation and other purposes, is @ matter which the govern ment should itself experiment with. Other political subdivisions of the coun- try enjoy public favors in the way of appEopriati ms for the improvement of rivers and harbors, and Arizona, with practically no such subjects for the en- ioyment of the governments generos- itY, should receive its pstronizIng bene- l., in ths equally important matter of providing means for the proper storage ot the waters produced by the semi an nual rains.

THE congressional enactment prohib-
 itinc the passage of special laws in the
 territories of the United States, while it
 may be regarded ss a radical innovation
 upon the established custom of loose | Legislation in frontier dependencies, is
 really a wholesome law. It first sec ton is s verbatim copy of the IllinoIs state constitution on these subjects, and similar provisions are fouLd in almost every state constitution. The intent of the measure IS very plsin. It means that no one citizen or corporation shall be given special and exclusive Bdvant- ages over another, but general laws may be enacted covering the several subject included in the law, which are Gvaila- ble by any and all persons clothed with the proper conditions to invoke their ald. It prohibits only special legls- lation, which has been found extreme ly pernIcIous from the frequency its privileges are abused. The law limits the creation of territorial, county and muni- cipal indebtedness and absolutely prohibits the loan of their credit or sub sc-ption to the capital stock of any In- corporated company or association hay ing corporate powers, or to borrow mon- eY for the use of any such company or association. This effectully es.ops all public aid to railroads or other public enterprises in the future, but has no retroactive effect, We reproduce the whole bill elsewhere, as approved by the President, and ask its careful perusal by the people. While it is very impor- tant measure it will be seen that it works DO hardships, and only confines the subject of legislation to its legiti- mate and proper channel.

delicate operation this morning in that
branch of surgery known as iridectomy
Martha Fields. the sixteen year old daught-
er of Jesse Fields, living i'll the east end,
has been blind for fourteen years. II was
found that the loss of sight was caused by
film or skin upon the corner of the eye
and covering the pupil. 1t was thought
that the left eye could be restored to partial
sight. and this was the object of the sue
ceSSful operation this morning. An arti-
fetal pupil was formed by cutting out
portion of the iris above the point where the
pupil is located in the:perfect eye. Two lit
tie N-like pieces were cut, with such happy
results, that the child was able TO distin-
guish objects about her. The operation is
one of the most difficult in ocular surgery.
