THE MINING OUTLOOK.

In no tune. in the history of Pima county has the mining outlook in the vicinity of Tucson been as propitious as at the present time. One of the weak nesses of prospsctors has been romance about rich ores existing in inaccessible places, for instance on the Indian Res. ersstion, down in the heart of the Sierra Msdre mountains in Mexico. where they were absolutely untensble on account of being infested by redskins, or in fact anywhere, where it was next to impossi. ble to get to prospect. In this way good localities have been overlooked beosuse they were too near home to be good, or loo easy of access to pan out we'll. The vicinity of Tucson has long been neglected, but is now receiving some attention. and Is richly rewsrdins the prospectors therefor. Parties ol prospectors are outfitting and before winter much earnest work will be done within a radius of twenty-five miles oi Tucson.

A contemporary states that from the enthusiasm exhibited wherever Blaine appears, ii is hard to decide who is run ming for President. Blaine or Harrison. AZ other contemporary remarking on this, says it is true that great snthusi- ssm exists sll oyer the country for both Blaine and Harrison, and that If the question of popular enthusiasm IS to be considered, people al large would not haov that Cleveland is running st all. There is 8 great deal of force in this latter remark. As there can be no di- vided opinion about the Republican csn- vsss being one of genuine enthusiasm, it has the ring of the old time shouts, when the hero of Appomsiox vas the standard bearer, the feeling of the pso- pie is in the struggle to greater extent than it has been in many years. A great question that may shake our country with the vigor of 8 financial earthquake as ct stake and the people themselves ir- respective of the politicians are going to have 6 word to say for the welfare of the country that has prcspsred so mag nifcently under the protective policy, and when that word is spoken on November Grover Cleveland himself will scarcely realize that he has been running. Ben Butler spoke . volume when he spoke of the dangers liable to occur st the hands of so inexperienced 6 politician ss Cleveland. The hepubli- cans can thank that inexpensnce for having the administration in full retreat today, and ssuArely on the defensive. Cleveland made the bed in spite of the RandsIl's of his party. and bis party must lie on it, though it bs in that sleep that knows no awakening. The Repub- can orators have but to speak of the hearty support England is giving the Democratic party and free trade, to make speech that the Democratic party can not snswer bstwiIt now and November to the sstistsction of Americans, and particularly our lsboring classes. One of the most interesting exhibitions wit messed for 6 decade, will be the futile efforts of the Democratic salons, lesdinR the "for,orn hope" in their efforts 70 sd- usste Americans to Englsnd's way of thinking and after each unsuccessful stscrt they will think cuss words if they don't speak when they reflect on the folly of choosing an inexperienced poli- ticisn as 6 leader.

WE would like to glance over Sam Randslrs shoulder on election dsy and see the names on the ticket he votes. Randall has long borne the reputation of being 6 consistent man and the world knows him to be 6 man of brains. He has persistently and strenuously urged his objections to the Democratic plat form and has fought srduously for pro- tectIon, therefore it Is hardly ressons- ble to believe that his ideas of copsis- tenoy and right can be overcome 10 an eItent that will permit him to vote for Cleveland, He has the alternative pre- ssnted of either gong back on himself or going back on Cleveland, and thus fsr, history has never made a record of Sam Randall going back on himself.

Pherson, who was one of the per-
-ons curious to discover shen and
low the phrase originated. found,
as the Tribune tells US, that it
vas first employed in the National
Democratic platf f,rm of 1876.
OF course the assertion that du-
ties were collected on "oser 1000
articles" was ridi 'ulously false in
1876, and it is even more false now
on account of the additions which
were made to the free list in 1888.
The phrase was impressed into
the service without any attempt
or desi- to learn whether it was
truthful or not, and it has been
repeated parrot-like in Congress,
on the stump and in every free
trade journal steadily since that
me.-Globe-Democrat.

-FOUR THOUSAND ARTICLES"

For years past our free trade
friends have been telling the coun-
try, in the most lurid and pictur-
esque language which they could
command, of the ''inquities' of
the tariff, which, they declare, i'm
poses duties on "over 1000 arti-
cles.'' 1t is true few persons of
average intelligence or mental bal
ance ever believed that the tariff
has been an injury to the country
or that it affects half of $4,000 ar
ticles." This, however, merely
had the effect of making the free
traders more Jealous and persist
ent In their work of "enlighten-
ment." The New York Tribune
has taken the trouble to count, in
the report on Commerce and
Navigation" for 1856, the latest
official data available, the number
of articles on which a duty was
paid in that year, and finds that it
was just 9S2, or less than one
fourth of the 1000 claimed.
A good many persons in this
country have doubtless felt more
or less curiosity in the past few
years to discover when and in
what connection the phrase
cover 1000 articles" was first used

CLIPPINGS.

Last Monday Henry Wiley met
with an accident that proved fatal
in a few hours. He was hunting
rabbits with his brother-in-law,
Lu' her Haywood, and had killed
quite a number, He sat down on
a log to rest and when getting
ready to start again he threw his
bunch of rabbits over his shoulder,
In doing 90 he let his shotgun
slip and It slid down until the
muzzle was under his arm pit or
nearly against his shoulder, when
the lock struck something, dis
charging the whole load into his
shoulder, tearing the flesh and
shattering tie bones. Drs. Par
rish and Murphy were sent for
and went down. At the tina they
could do no more than dress the
wound and returned, deciding am
putation necessary. Doctors Par
rish and Gum started again Tues
day morning but learned the
wounded man had died. 1t is a
very sad atfiiction. Deceased was
about 32 years of age and leaves a
wife and two young children. He
was son of Jno. A. Wiley
Memphis Democrat.
As William Leach was return
ing home from the Cone farm last
Saturday he had quite an expert
ence with a big gray wolf. He
first noticed it trotting along after
his sled. He stopped his team and
tried to urge his young dog to at
tack his wolf-ship, but the dog was
too wise. Mr.. Leech took a four
tined fork and started toward the
beast. 1t stood its ground and
showed his teeth until Leach got
within less than a rod almost near
enough to plunge his fork, when
it turned and ran away. The dog
started after it and caught it in a
short time, but before Leach
could reach them it whipped the
dog and run him back toward the
sled. Seeing Mr.. Leach approach
ing again it ran down the hollow
and disappeared in the weeds and
brush. Mr.. Leach had killed a
rabbit and thrown it In the sled
and the wolf being hungry had no
doubt set his heart ON that rabbit,
but was foiled by the plucky
in securing the prey
