At the Music Hall last Sunday
afternoon, Hon. j. j. Smallwood OF
Virginia addressed a large audience
upon the topic, "The American Ne
gro, what he was, and what he is,
and what he is going to be-" He
said: 81 am here to speak for my
race, and our rights. There are mil
lions of black men of this country
who are not ashamed of their former
condition or their color. | do rot
believe in cOlOred men marrying
white women. The best thing for
both white and cOlored people in this
country is to forget the past and be :
gin a new future.
Let both North and South ioin
hands together, and may the time
come when both white and colored
will be united, when the colored peo-
pie will be respected if they respect
themselves. Then will this country
be indeed n home of the brave and
the land of the free"
He spoke of the race from a moral
standpoint, and was all through his
speech greeted with applause

The Silver King.

w. $. Lyle, late manager of the Silver King, was recently interviewed by reporter of the Tucson Citizen upon mining matters in Arizona and made the following remarks concern ing the Silver King mine:
 ''The Silver King" said MT. Lyle, twas discussed every morning before breakfast by every individual in Pinal county, including the old women and children, for fifteen years, until got control of it. Believing that it is nec- essary to the success of any business that its management should alone know all the conditions and facts con- corning it, put the seal on the Silver King, by forbidding those carrying on the work there to give out any inform ation concerning it, and as a result it has been regarded as surrounded by much mystery. The Silver King un- der my management was developed from the 800-foot level to the 130O- foot level, without ore, excepting an occasional streak of from $1.50 to $5 rock. At the ,300-foot level there Is being encountered a formation which resembles a capping to an ore body, which may be struck at any time within the next 200 feet. If there is nothing encountered before the 15OO- foot level is reached I regard the Sil- yer King at an end as mine."
 "At the recent election of the Silver King Company, the management of this once famous property was fraudulent taken from my hands, and new crowd at present have charge there, MT. Comstock, who was my superin- tendent, and one of the best mining men on the Pacific coast to-day, hay ing gone to San Francisco. I do not consider the present management will inspire new faith and hopes in the property. Up to the time I turned over the operation, now going on, there was nothing to base hope that the mill at Final would again be start ed on Silver King ore. I still represent large interest in the property, and of course feel deeply interested in results and hope they may be good"

1T is e significant fact bearing upon the future prosperity of Arizona that several of the great railway companies of the eastern systems are seeking out lets to the Pacific coast through this Territory. They. desire to avoid the heavy grades and deep snows of the Rocky mountains and to secure routes practically devoid of natural obstacles to building and operating their lines. Of these several lines one or more will surely discover the great advantages of traversing the wonderfully rich val ley of the Gila river that extends across Arizona from New Mexico to the Colorado river. This route will present to the traveller ever changing and beautiful scenery with perennial verdure that contrasts strongly with the barren desert plains through which existing roads pass, while frequent prosperous settlements will create 8 favorable impression upon the traveller of our beautiful Territory. Such q road will command local traffic of no small proportions, for the richest agri- cultural and mining sections in the southwest are tributary thereto. These several railroads must choose one of two routes-either across the hills of the northern plateau parallel with the Atlantic & Pacific road, or the level plains south of the Gila river. There is no intermediate route practicable for road extending across the Terri tory, consequently the advantages possessed by the latter will likely in- duce builders to select it. When the great trunk lines are extended to the Pacific coast the settlements upon the Gila river are reasonably Icertain to secure one of them.

A Skipping Consul.

Some days ago the Herald contain ed an account of the trouble of Capt. Kelton, United States Consul at Ma zatlan, in bringing up against a for midable shortage with companies for which he had been acting as agent.
 It appears now that he has skipped out from Mazatlan in a manner that adds disgrace to what before seemed more of misfortune than anything else. Private dispatches state that he clandestinely left Mazatlan Wednes- day night on the steamer Colima, bound for San Francisco. It is stated that he left without authority of court or creditors and this looks as though he might be arrested upon his arrival at San Francisco. He left the consulate in charge of man named Clark.

THE destruction of the great dam of the Walnut Grove Water Storage com pany and the consequent loss of life, is calamity whose responsibility must rest upon the company under whose orders the weak and inefficient structure was built The statement of Luther Wagoner, @ mining engineer of San Francisco, who superintended the work of construction for Q short time, shows that the plans were faulty and the materials of poor quality, and that the niggardly economy enforced ill the use of such expensive materials as cement, rendered the structure in- secure from it's very foundation. MT. Wagoner reported these facts to the president of the company and protested against the slipshod manner in which the work was being done, but without effect, and he thereupon resigned his position. At that time he found the dam in q leaky condition and predic- ted it's ultimate collapse. Under the exercise of such criminal carelessness the heavy responsibility for the loss oi so many human lives must rest with the company and they should be held liable therefor, providing the state ments of Wagoner are true. By their method of construction they invited the pecuniary loss they have sustain ed, but the sympathy of the people will go out only to the innocent suf- ferers whom the angry waters have deprived of protection and support.

THE famous fraudulent Peralta grant that threatened to despoil the settlers of their homes upon the fair est portion of Arizona, has been or dered stricken from the docket of the Surveyor General by Commissioner Groff, of the general land office. This is proper proceeding SO far as it goes, but does not prevent the revocation of the order by some future commis- sioner The claimants of this at tempted steal relinquished all endeav- ors to secure favorable action upon their alleged claim through the usual official channels, long ago, and are concentrating their efforts to the establishment of a land court which they hope to control. They can, at least, secure standing in court un- favorable to their interests, upon an affidavit of the character they seem to possess the pre-meinent ability to pre- sent, and this will place them in a position to annoy the settlers and levy blackmail at their pleasure. The present ruling is the first blood for settlers, but there are several hard rounds yet to be contested before the claimants are ready to throw up the sponge.

Casa Grande Mines.

The Casa Grande correspondent of the Tucson Star writes as follows:
 All reports from the mines in the Casa Grande district are very encour- aging.
 At the Waukeegan, owned by Reiss & Tomlinson of this town, an immense body of ore has been struck. Some of the most experienced mining men in this country have expressed it as their opinion that is the richest mine ever discovered in this country, not even excepting the wonderful Silver King and Vekol.
 At the Lake Shore copper mine Supt. Loss is pushing the work of erecting a smelter of sixty tons ca pacity. They expect to start the mill running in about twenty days, then they will have a great amount of ore to begin with, as it is estimated that there are thirty-two thousand tons now ready to be worked. This is q grand mine; it has been owned and worked for years by Messrs. Traut & Atchison, but not until recently have they been able to place it in the hands of parties who could develop it. The mine is about 30 miles south of Casa Grande, with fine road all the way from the latter place. The heavy teams which are now hauling out coke will return with the bullion. This group includes seven copper and one gold claims.
 The Golden West mill will con- mence running on or about the 1st of | March.
 Col. Jarvis, of Kansas City, manager of the Monarch mine, now at the mine and we expect to hear something good from him soon. They have a fine property there.

A Scotch Colony.

The Tucson Star states, on what it claims as good authority that the townsite located on the Sonora line, about fifteen miles from Bisbee will soon materialize into a living, acting, throbbing town of about 150 families. The colony will be brought out from Scotland by the copper company. It is said the railroad is to be built from Bisbee into the Sonora coal fields, and it will pass through this townsite. The company have already sent the tools and machinery for the sinking of artesian wells, and as the location is in the Sulphur Spring valley there is more than an even chance that water will be struck. Prof. Douglass and his son are now at Bisbee and the latter will have the management of the new townsite, which is to be colonized by Scotch immigrants. This is certainly good news as the Scotch as people are of all others the most desirable as citizens. They will en- gage principally in the business ol agriculture, and Cochise county will have cause to rejoice.

IS making improvements upon their land under the Florence canal the settlers are met with conflict of sur veys which is very annoying and somewhat expensive if one happens to adopt the defective survey. The old original corner stakes, likely set in careless manner, have nearly all disappeared and in their absence the lines must be run from some authenti- cated monument according to the field notes on file with the Surveyor Gen eral. The present difficulty has doubt less arisen from beginning one of the surveys at a stake placed by some one in a wrong position and the error can be easily rectiied through joint re- vision by the local surveyors, both of whom are fully competent in their line. This is duty they owe to those who employed them in making the surveys and to their own regulations for accuracy, and they should jointly go over the work SO far as to re-estab- fish enough of the official corners to furnish proper basis for the field work. If this is not done now great deal of dissatisfaction and possibly ex- pensive litigation will result.

J. $. MANSFIELD, PIONEER N NEWs DEALER OF ARIZ.
 Tucson, Arizona.

If the bondsmen of ex-treasurer Rit- ter bring suit for the recovery of the money paid to the county and if they win the suit there will be weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth among those of the powers that be. More heads will have to fall, more salaries cut down, more bills cut down, more aliens employed and paid with county funds and the tide of retrenchment, with big, big R, will become so wide reaching and awe-inspiring that peo- pie will gather together afar off and say: "Behold! how the mighty are fallen! The purple and fine linen and the majesty of presence that once marked the rulers have gone never to return. The extreme saving was un- able to save and the mighty reforma- ton was unable to reform. Babylon is fallen and her children followers have been swallowed up in the mighty sea of self-righteousness. Woe, woe unto those who set themselves up above the law and make of themselves judges of all things! For the day shall come when they shall be cast down and their rulings set at naught." " Selah,- Epitaph.

THERE can be scarcely a doubt re.

THERE can be scarcely a doubt re- maining that small band of Apache Indians are raiding among the settle ments of northern Sonora and com hitting the usual depredations. They doubtless comprise the few Indians who refused to surrender at the time Geronimo and his band were taken by General Miles, with the addition of several outlaws from the reservation possibly the murderers of Sheriff Key holds and Deputy Holmes. Pursuit of these raiders has been organized by the Governor of Sonora, but there is httie hope of their capture, or even annoyance, by reason of the advan- tages the savages enjoy of eluding the troops. This small legacy of our gov ernment's policy in dealing with the Apaches may possibly lead to'a future bill of damages by Mexico against the United States, and any claim they may make will scarcely be considered unjust. So long as these treacherous and blood-thirsty fiends are harbored and protected near the haunts of their anpeators the lives and property of the sotllsrs arc menaced and International ttodbles are liable to arise through tbeik deprcdations The government snolld leAlize by this time that the only solution to tbe problem is their absolute removal from the territory.
Arizona weekly enterprise., 1890-03-01

ONE of the most selfish grounds of opposition to the extending of govern ment aid in retaining the arid re gions of the west is that given by a senator from state bordering upon the Mississippi river, who stated that there is still sufficient vacant land within the middle and western states for settlers without going out to the Pacific coast and spending money to make the country habitable. He is one of those narrow, sectional bigots who first wants to gorge his own paunch before permitting his neigh bor to get a crumb from the public table. Out here in Arizona they grow animals of his nature upon alfalfa fields and convert them into fair article of bacon. His vote is always ready upon an appropriation for the improvement of thunder-shower creek or a mud slough in his own state, but his vision cannot penetrate the needs that exist beyond it's boundary lines.
