tract existing between the two boats.
ODay will sue for the full value Of the

Hurrah for Morenoil The town

Hurrah for Morenci! The town presents a most lively appearance just now,the streets being crowded with wagons full of country pro duce including the festive turkey for Christmas consumption.
 Tanner & Steggall, our mer- chants, are doing a rushing busi- ness. Mir. Steggall is reaching out and proposes to put a mule team on the road between Clifton and Morenci; also a pack train to the several mining camps hereabouts. This will be a great convenience to the boys out in the hills.
 In mining everything is looking encouraging. Ellis Miller struck rich pocket in the Twig mine at Silver Basin last week and got out twelve sacks of fine high grade ore. Baxter is still rushing work on the Comstock group and is looking as if he felt contented with his prospects and the world in general. Higgins & Co.'s mine near Morenci is looking well. At fifteen feet they have three feet four inches of good ore.
 Louie Jentzen is the happiest man in town, and I think he has good cause to be. I wish I had his good luck, or at least his winning ways. Louie is q great favorite and has many friends who are con graduating him.
 The county road between Mo renci and Clifton is hadly washed out, and Road Overseer Hill came up this morning for the purpose of putting it in repair. He found DO men, however, the boys refusing to work on account of it being Christ mas time. The chances are that unless they go to work, however, they will think it is hard times be- fore Henry gets through with them.
 Adios till next week.
