 Twelve tons of high grade silver ore was brought in from the Rescue mine on Thursday, and will be shipped to Pueblo by A. Bailey x Go.

4 Hassayampsr's VisIt.
phenix Herald.


 Last Saturday that veteran pioneer of the Hassayampa, Henry Wickenburg, loaded at Farley x Grants with provis- vision for his home in the town that bears his name.
 In 1863 he settled at Wickenburg and has mined and farmed there ever since. The fertile 70 acres came to produce 20,- 900 pounds of potatoes to the acre and four and one-tenth tons of wheat hay. His onions often weigh two pounds each
 But last winters Walnut Grove disas- ter dumped three feet of sand over the center of his land, spelling the last part of it, and so changing the grade that his irrigation springs became useless for farming. He still has few acres left that may serve for gardening, but must hereafter depend upon some back coun- try grazing land, the IS horses and 35 to 40 cows left him; unless his suit for dam ages to be tried before Judge Kibbey on February 2nd, shall result in a verdict against the Walnut Grove Company.
 Mir. Wickenburg was Fl years old in November. He yet enjoys sound health and undiminished vigor. He drove the first eight-mule team to this region when he came with a party of Wickenbergers to build the first ditch ever taken out of Salt river. It was then called Swlllings ditch, but is now the town ditch or Salt river valley canal.

THE MORMoNs IN MEXICO.
Ten Thousand Latter-Day Saints to Emi- grate---Three Million Acres of Land Secured in Northern Mexico
 upon Which to Found
 Subsidized Col

A recent special from Lima, Ohio says: B. C. Faurot a well-known banker of this city, and who is also president of the Columbus & Northwestern railroad, and largely interested in railroads in Mexico, returned from New York this afternoon and announces the consummation of a deal by which John w. Young, eldest son of the late Brigham Young, comes into possession of three million acres of land which was granted Faurot by the Mexi- can government three years ago. Nego- tiations have been in progress for some time and finally closed in New York yes terday.
 The land is located in the northern part of Mexico. About three years ago Faurot obtained valuable grant from the Mexican government, which included these lands, the stipulation being the con struction of railroad, extending iron Deming, N. NJ, b Topolobampo Bay or the Pacific coast. The Mexican govern ment, in connection with this grant, offer, S200 to every family and $50 to each mar who locates permanently on this land.
 Young has ten thousand people who will colonize these lands. 1t is under stood they are all Mormons who now re side iu Utah.

Arabs for Arizona.

A New York press dispatch of Deoem- Der 18th, says: At meeting of wealthy Arab citizens, held to night in the Arabian quarter in Washington street. it was de- cided to form silk growing and fruit-rais- ing syndicate in this country, which will give employment to all Arabian immi- grants arriving at this port. Townsend Scudder, the well-known lawyer, was in structed to personally inspect certain tracts of land in Pennsylvania and Arizona, with power to negotiate for the purchase of such tracts as he may decide to be the most feasible. An effort is being made to inter- est the Armenian residents of this country, about 1S,000 in number, in the syndicate scheme. These people have considerable money and would add much strength to the syndicate. The plan is for each Arab immigrant to cultivate a section of the syndicate tract for half the proceeds for ten years, when one-third of his section will be decided to him in fee. Many rich natives of Syria are interested in the plan and are urging their countrymen to emi grate to the United States and enter the syndicate.

Interview With District \ essord
 About the Grand Jury Law.
Phenix Republican.

"It is a question among lawyers as to how far-reaching the defectis in an lndict- ment returned by Grand Jury composed of too small or too great number of per sons," said District Attorney Jeffords, when asked by Republican representa- tive yesterday about the dismissal of the trial jury
 Under the decision of the Supreme Court of this Territory i'll the case of Cheyney vs. Smith the Legislature of this Territory was ill session for more than ten days after Governor Zulick received House Bill No. 40 which provided that Grand Juries should be composed of not less than seventeen nor more than twenty-three members, while the code of 1887 provided for fifteen.
 Recognizing the fact tllat where parties were prosecuted for breach of Federal laws they have right to apply to the Supreme Court of the United States for a writ of habeas corpus, in which the ques- ton as to the legality of the Grand Jury which found the indictment might be tested. Judge Kibbey and myself pro- ceeded to the Territorial library yesterday afternoon to make the fullest examination of the matter possible. At the conclusion of our examination of all the authorities bearing upon the subject within our reach, the Judge suggested that all the uncer- tainties surrounding the question as to how far such an error as the one suggested in the constitution of the Grand Jury, if there should be an error. might go, led ! him to doubt the policy of trying any Of the indictments now pending for offences committed against the United States. whether the same were found by the late Grand Jury, which consisted of seventeen members, or the Grand Jury empanelled in i May last, wisich consisted of fifteen mem- 1 bers until 1t could be determined by the Su- l preme Court of what namber Grand Juries ! in this Territory should be organized with. | I most heartily concurred in this view of 1 the matter and as Jefferson Wilson was under sentence of death and had been in- dicted by Grand Jury organized with
 only fifteen members. and as Judge Wm. l M. Lowell signiied in open court this ! morning that the intention ot himself and i bis colleague, o. T. Rouse, was to sue out l 8 writ of habeas corpus from the Supreme
 Court of the United States to test the le-
 gality 1.-the conviction of Wilson, founded
 on the indictment spoken of asked per
 mission of the Court to continue all Fed
 eral criminal business until the Supreme 1 Court of the United States had passed up on the questions intended to be raised by Afessrs. Lowell and Rouse. I knew the continuation would be granted, as a mat
 ter of course, for the reason, that after my
 conversation with the Judge on yesterday
 I was satisfied that he did not wish, any
 more than did I, to put the Government
 to the expense eofunnecessary trials and he
 l knew, regarded the question of such
 serious import that he was unwilling to
 sentence a man to death until the person
 convicted had had full opportunity tc
 thoroughly test the question of the legali. ty of the Grand Jury which indicted
 him"
