confidence in the future Of this section
Of Arizona. We have the best agricul-
tural lands, the best stock growing ranges

rested. This is good news as the mining
camps are the great source Of Arizona's
wealth.-Citizen.

No part Of the Territory can afford to
Eiye another section "bIack eye" or re.
outation, as it is suicidal. Exaggerated
reports Of diseases, business apathy, or
my Of the ills which lands are heir to,
affect not only the particular district at
which they are aimed, but the territory
as a whole. To the outside world we are
known simply as Arizona, and not by our
local divisions. This is TACT that some |
Of the newspapers should remember

Col. Francico Garcia .of San AIarcial was !
in the city, and yesterday he received |
telegram OF eongratulaticn from Col. Bel |
ton, who was officially detailed by the |
Mexican government to report as TO the |
progress made in the San Marcial coal |
fields, Sonora. Mexico. Col. Bolton tele-
graphed that six foot vein of the finest |
grade of anthracite coal had been struck |

feet in a solid seam Of anthracite in

An important event that marks de-
cided advance in the copper mining indu- |
stry OF Globe district was the blowing in
Of the Buffalo Copper Mining Company's
furnace on Tuesday morning. Confidence
was felt that a successful beginning J
would be made, as DR.. Alex. Trippel, |
superintendent, had given careful atten-
ton to the final arrangements, in their |
minutest detail, ably assisted by E. Fl.
Cook; and the result equals the most
5Inguine expectations. The bitches
which almost always occur in the starting
# a new plant and in smelling untried
ores noticably absent. The production
Of copper bars has thus far been very
satisfactory and co pper is now going for
ward to Willcox.-Belt.
One Of the amusing things in this
western country is the amateur cowboy.
lie is trapped out with chsparejos (leather
ieggins), big hat, with leather band,
rawhide RATA, great spurs and every
other attribute Of the stage cowboy. he
usually rides in to town on the full jump,
jabbing his spur into the side Of bis un-
fortunate beast and jerking bis horses
head up by means Of cruel Spanish bit.
Thus QUILTED, he presents quite an ex-
hibition on the streets, but one at which
the old-timers smile and say, suggestively
''Tenderfoot." The true COW puncher
puts on his leggns only when going in
70 brushy country, leaves bis range
trappiHgs at home and comes TO town
quietly attlred in the best clothes be owns.
Ths better the range rider, the less os,en.
