A Pros pective Railroad.

The Florence Enterprise says the prospects are good for the construc- tion of a railroad from San Diego through portion of Lower Califor- mia to Yuma and thence up the Gila river, with its eastern connec- tion yet undivulged. It is altogether probable, however, that it will trav- erSe the rich valley of the Gila at least to Florence, and make connec- tion with the Santa Fe system at Flagstaff via the Arizona Mineral Belt. The Santa Fe has reserved the best portion of Arizona for its special field of transportation, and the completion of its system in Cali fornia will likely be closely followed by the extension of its connections in this Territory. Its fragmentary roads here must shortly become in dependent of the Southern Pacific and the several links be united and formed into a grand trunk line, When this is done the valley of the Gila will be traversed by a railroad that will afford a reasonable compe- tition with the Southern Pacific and prove great blessing to the Terri tory.

GENERAL BENJAMIN HARRISON

GENERAL BENJAMIN HARRISON continues to receive two or three delegations a week from different associations and localities, and goes through the process of shaking hands with all, and making speech to each delegation. No candidate for President ever made so many speeches in so short space of time as General Harrison has since the Chicago convention. So far, his replies have given the opposition press no lever for detraction. His remarks have been singularly happy and pertinent, But if this sort of business goes on, it would seem as if even the fertile brain of our Presidential candidate will be put to a most severe test before the campaign is over. Every word that General Harrison speaks is instant ly reported all over the country, and next morning published broadcast in nearly every paper in the land.

Then he has good running qualities--his limbs are well built for running and in case of Long Tom Butler being nomineted by the Republican party, the Democracy will have to stir around to hold up its last ma jority; for Butler is not only man of marked ability, but good citi, zen, who commands the respect of all who know him.

be gathered on favorable soil the fifth year."
 The Templeton Times, (San Louis Obispo county, California; gives the fol- lowing:
 Major Utt has an olive orchard of twenty-five bearing trees, planted in an orchard seven years to include 1886; the produce of ten of them last year was 75o gallons of olives. He sold the surplus crop at 40 cents per gallon, casks furn- ished, for SIP per tree. Fifty gallons of average crop to the tree at I2 years from the planting of the orchard would be a low estimate, and this amount would make six and quarter gallons of oil. Elwood Cooper gets SIo a gallon for his oil. Increased production will lower the wholesale price to four dollars gallon, or at the lowest $25 per tree, equal to 5000 per acre. Allow one-half for ex- penses and interest on investment, and you have the net sum of $45o an acre as net profits. Mir. Loop has been offered eighty cents gallon for all of the pick lee

Colonel Herring, in an interview in MT. Ritter's papers defends the action of his client in appropriating to his own use the sum of S659o.47.

Ritter has for nearly three years received annually S35oo as full compensation for his services as County Treasurer, and now at this late day makes the prepos- terous claim that he is entitled to over $3ooo year in addition thereto.

Senator Paddock's idea of getting rid of the surplus in the treasury is worthy of consideration. He has introduced bill which provides for the erection of gov ernment building for postoffice accomo- da.ions in every town and city in the country with s,coo inhabitants or up- wards, the cost of the building not to ex- ceed the aggregate receipts of the office for the two years last past. In no better way could the surplus funds of the treas ury be employed than in erecting sub stantial and convenient postoffices where the population will warrant them, and save rent and represent the dignity of the federal government.

THE MISSING SILVER SCARE.

The most amusing incident of recent political discussion IS the sudden, and at first sight unaccountable, disappearance of the great silver question. Let any man read the woeful forebodings of the mo- nometallist organs oftwo or three years ago, and then try to think what has h~o. pened to account for the awful sile-ce about 85-cent dollars which now over- spreads the country. The intelligent mind would naturally be forced to the conclusion that the "dishonest dollar" had been summarily abolished. The beautiful calm on the monetary question would seem to "consist" with no other state of facts. If we are not measuring our money and goods by the single gold standard, what has become of the public men and journals that were shouting such alarming warnings at us tev months ago?
 Strange but true, the event has falsi. fled their predictions and most inconti- nently closed their madly bowling mouths. The slight turn of the wrist which has done this magical thing has merely been the law requiring silver certificates to be issued to the pos sessors of silver dollars. These dollars have simply been placed on a equality with gold dollars, so far as the privilege of using the coin or its paper representa- tive is concerned, and To and behold, every one forgets that the "cart-wheel dollar" is a nuisance. Apparently silver only needs an even chance with gold Washington Herald.

GOLD BUG THEORIES UPSET,

Some of the facts presented by the coinage report of the mlnt for the last fiscal year upset the fancies of the theor- ists in the most sweeping way. Their favorite argument against the remone- tlzation of silver was that it would make the United States the dumping ground" of the world for a depreciated coin. Dumping ground" and the "buzzard dollar" were the arguments in brief. But the facts are that instead of becoming the receptable of the worlds silver, we are exporting far more than we receive frem abroad. The imports of silver dur. ing the year were exceeded by the ex- ports over nine millions of dollars. There was profit on the coinage of the silver dollars of about seven millions of dollars. No wonder the opponents of silver coinage have closed out their gloomy predictions. All their fine spun theories have come to nothing. We ex- port more silver than we reserve, and the silver addition to the currency has given stability and prosperity to business. It is also general belief it has prevented a business panic. The doctrines of the anti-silver people were very logical. It seems, however, trade and business do not always follow the lines laid down by the students in their libraries Pitts burg Post.

If MT.

As it is now, he will be looked upon as a de- faulter,and while he may honestly believe that he is entitled to fees in addition to the salary paid him, it will be hard matter for the community to believe otherwise than that he is trying to take advantage of quibble in the law to wrong the people who have trusted him.

HOW BEN BUTLER GOT RICH.
Young Men of To-day May do Likewise
 if They Follow Advice Given.


 General B. F. Butler being asked for some suggestions on gaining success, stated that when he was young lawyer, practicing in Lowell, Mass, bank pres- ident advised him to take his little de- posit and buy real estate, from which he could be deriving some revenue. The general said that he had but little money and was uncertain as to his future.
 Never mind," said the bank presi- dent, "go to the next public auction of real estate bid off a lot with building of some kind on it, pay down what money you have and give your promis- sory notes for the balance. You will come out all right"
 General Butler says this advice was good. When man has obligated him. self, by his notes, to pay money at cer- tain time, it inclines him to economy. He followed the advice, and in time be- came the owner of several parcels of val uable real estate in Lowell
 Two classes will not be likely to heed such advice-the improvident and the over-cautious. The latter will be apt to gay: It would be all right but for those dreadful promissory notes. They are always running on and if man falls sick they do not wait for him to get we'll"

The EPITAPH regrets that MT. Ritter saw fit to pursue the course he had taken in withholding $6599 AZ his settlement with the county as Treasurer. If he had paid over the money, and then brought suit, he would have been held blameless, for certainly, if his cause is just, judg- ment against the county for the amount would have been perfectly good. Cochise county is solvent, and well able to pay its debts. As it is now, he is placed in position, which, as an honor. able man, he should have avoided, The action of the Board of Supervisors, in suspendlng him from office and com mencing suit for the amount, is proper one in the premises. MT. Ritter is for tunate that the proceedings against him are not of more serious character.
