IT Is certainly not going to i'm prove the credit of Graham county to have the officials so plainly disregard the statutes as they have done in the matter of assessments. The law in the matter is so clear that there can be no excuse for the negligence shown. AS far as we can learn no as- sessment has been made this year of property situated on the upper Frisco and We are informed that up to the 22d inst. nothing has been done ill that direction at San Jose. If these facts be true it begins to look as il the assessment roll is short this year some thousands of dollars, as it k only fair to presume that other local, tiles have been similarly neglected.

A MINING exchange correctly says that the reputation of mine is as ten der as that of woman. No true miner-one worthy of fellowship in the guild-will ever speak i'll of the property of his brother miner, yet in almost every mining camp are to be found few men engaged in mining operations, Of souls SD small that they cannot endure Q favorable word spoken of the mine of a neigltbor These enyious mcddlers are particu- larly busy when any large sale of mining property is being negotiated by any man or company of men iI their neighborhood. If they cannot attract the attention of capitalists to their own property, they do all in their power to keep capital out of the reach of their neiehbors. To speak plainly such men are mining hogs men who should be kicked out of the prcyerbialIy liberal and generous brotherhood of miners.

Secretary of the Treasury Windom has been considering the question of the classification of lead ores shipped
 into the country containing silver. The department has received several reports from their special agents sent down to the Mexican border for the purpose of investigating the subject of the importation of lead ores frolG Mexico to the United States, which show that extensive frauds have been practi ed, and the payment of the proper amount of duties on this con- modity has been systematically eyad- ed by the shippers. These reports will have great weight in the settle ment of the question now at issue, and it is believed that developments will have tendency to the decision that duties on imported ores contain ing lead and silver must hereafter be determined by the relative weight of the two metals instead of their req
