Rich Gold Discoveries.
Tucson Star.


 bIr. Frank Shultz came in from the Oracle one day this week for the purpose of having some assays made on recent gold discoveries at the Mammoth Mining District. The average assays as returned by our local metallurgists reached from $40 to 45 per ton in gold. These dis eoveries were made north of the Christ mas and Oracle Mines about 300 feet lower in altitude than the above claims. All indications towards the north of these claims are principally gold, and growing richer as prospected The croppings in- dieate much rich ore underneath Mir. Shu1tz has associated with him practical mining men, who, with him, will proceed immediately to work their properties to the fullest extent in order to ascertain their true value. He has been q pros- pector on the Pacific coast for the last thirty years, and says that the Mammoth Mining District IS the best that he has l yet seen in the way of valuable properties n his lsrge experiences. His district will i yet prove the bonanza of Arizona.

Painter left here by the evening train to visit her parents at Meeker, Colorado, 1t was represented. Painter renained-for brief tinne-the couple stating that they intended to locate here permanently. ON Wednesday, however IS transpired that he had skipped the country" on a cattle train, leaving behind Q number of credit ors, and also making of with Dick Will lians' dress suit, which Painter had bor- rawe1 to wear on the Fourth" The suit undoubtedly was taken by Mrs. Painter, stored away in her trunk, as Painter was not encum oered with baggage when he departed hence, When it became known l that Painter had left, Constable Caldwell telegrapbed Branhle Ownby, Constable al Lords6urg, to arrest him.

These men have even assumed to read honest and sterling Republicans out of the party and denounce the party generally as "traitors" when it failed to ''bow the knee to Baal" and yet they are ''eheek by iowl' with certain Democrats and planning the destruction of everybody and everything they cannot control, planning to make the people of Arizona pay the way of the conspirators out the public moneys and to that end are now at work.

 According to inc correspondent Of So nora paper the English company which l. now fighting for the return Of the pur- chase price of the hulatos mines has not put in any new machinery nor improved the water power 90 that 1t has been work ing with only 20 or 30 stamps out of sixty thai aTs IF the o.a Aguayo mil. The loss in treatment Of these ores is said have been something over 9 per cent
 During the great part of the time since the English Company took the mines in last August. 1t has had only 5 men at work in the mines but the pay roll of en- ployees has amounted to about S5,000 a month, more accurately S59. .859.90 : year. It appears also that many overcharges have been made for machinery, freight, wood and other items, the 7surnise being of course, that these sums have been di- yerted from their proper channel through the influence of some ring. During sev- eTal months past some twenty miles of wagon road have been constructed which has cost the company more than SIG, GOO. ! This road it said to be perfectly impass- able and all the work done upon 1t to be not worth half of what 1t cost the con- pany. If only half Of the above allega- tions are true VIC can very readily see why the English company has 90 rapidly become dsgusted with its purchase and no doubt the very parties whose corrupt i practices are hinted at above would be 1 the very first to counsel and adopt des- | perate and disingenuous means to GOV !
