Snow is reported as falling at South Bend, Indiana, October 29th.

The closing paragraph of Peter R. Brady's address to the voters of the Southern District of Arizona is as fol- lows: eff elected to the Legislature I will oppose any legislation intended to relieve defaulters to the Territory or their sureties from their just liabilities, nor will support any law for the pay ment of salaries to those who have been termed holdovers, until their right to their respective offices has been decided by judicial decisions.
 There is no buncombe in thnt Mir. Brady will stand by the record, and us we'll might the opponents of that gen. tleman "sing psalms to dead horse" as to try to make those who know him best believe otherwise.

One thing of vital importance to nor thern Arizona and to Mohaye County in particular is the survey by the Gov
 ernment of the public lands of this portion of Arizona. A paltry g., has been appropriated for the purpose to cover the whole Territory. Our delegate to congress acknowledges that he is powerless to help us in the mat ter, yet the delegates from the other Territories have been able to get hber- al amounts set aside for this purpose ill their sections. If these lands were surveyed they would be open to settle ment and subject to taxation, There are thousands upon thousands of acres of land In Mohave county, which if available for settlement, would in few years be acquired for agricultural and grazing purposes. But leaving this aside, were these lands surveyed, they would then be subject to taxation, and especially those owned by the railroad grant. The value of these lands would add largely to the assessment roll and be the means of reducing the high rate of taxation, which engulfs at present, The next delegate from Arizona can make himself exceedingly popular in north ern Arizona. by securing the much needed appropriation for the survey of these public lands.

Copper.

The situation remains practically un- changed, both buyers and sellers main- taining a waiting attitude. A change, however, must soon occur, as most of the manufacturers supplies will be ex- hausted within few weeks, and the only source from which Lake copper is now obtainahle Is the Lake companies, there being no more of this metal in second hands And as to the Lake companies shading their price of IT cents, there seems little likelihood of that, for if appearances go for anything they are as steadfast as ever, and whilst no combination exists between them, their ideas as to price are uniform, and this sentiment is perhaps strengthened by the fact that but small if any stocks have accumulated. Consumption is going on at very satisfactory rate, and even if there should be a small falling of in the demand for brass man. ufacture, this deficiency will certainly be made up by other branches, es- pecially for electrical purposes.

The gold monopolists are rcmarking in scarcely disguised tones of exultation that the operation of the silver bill has not caused the advance in prices that was anticipated by it's friends and ad- vocates. Under the provisions of this measure new treasury notes have been issued to the amount of $S,069, 900. Who would suspect that the addition of so small an amount to the currency of a nation of GA, 900, 900 people would have any pereeptible effect upon prices or anything else?
