Shot Gun" Smith

The Bulletin had the pleasure ol meeting "Shot Gun" Smith at Grant this week. Hr. Smith is pleasant and interesting gentleman, intelligent, and has not the wild and woolly appearances that his nickname would suggest. He came to Arizona as Lieutenant in the army in the early days but quit the government service, so that he might have full swing in 8 new country. He has been engaged in mining mostly eyer since, and now has a cabin and Q few cattle in picturesque canyon in the foot hills of the Graham mountains, where he lives alone, except when e1- tending hospitality to sojourning pros pectors who chance to pass his way. Sev-
 sral times in the past his place has been attacked by Indians and few red
 skins have been sent to the happy hunt
 ing grounds by his steady nerve and
 correct aim, and although never scratch
 ed himself, he has buried two or three
 mining partnsrsjwhO were sent to the
 other side by Apache bullets.
 Twenty years ago he was in Tucson
 when a red hot newspaper war came on
 during a campaign, He had been driven
 from camp to town by marauding h. dians and was out of job. One of the candidates for congress, backed by gang.of dsspsradoss and rustlers, who
 were numerous at the time in the old pueblo, had threatened to destroy the old Arizona office, and Smith was employed to guard and protect the property for $lO per night; he marched to and fro in front of that newspaper office, with e shot gun on his shoulder, nightly for moro than 6 week. depositing his gun, drawing his pay, and taking cocktail III Charley Browns sa- loon every morning before breakfast. Since that time he has been known as "Shot Gun" Smith.
 He now owns several valuable mines in the Clark mining district between Fort Grant and Cedar Springs. but is desirous of selling out, so that he may take trip to the statss.-Bulletin.

 -Alburquerque Citizen. Freight officials of the western roads report steady decline in the volume of shipments recently. The falling off is particularly noticeable in the districts where the corn crop was partial failure last year, but all classesj of freight are more or less affected. The outlook for heavy traffic from now on is not promis- ing. It is expected that after the first of the new year the decrease will be very large.

11iIS Suul WIS bdh0u U06 lar mers and miners who are endeorvor- to make the desert boom. The surplus production of the arid land basin con sists of bullion and cattle, and the peo- pie of the arid land belt consume breao, chiefly manufactured goods, machinery, &c., purchased of the eastern states, paying their prO-rata of the national revenus and assisting the eastern manu- facturer and producer in the protective tariff on their goods by purchasing them. If the protective tariff is bene it 10 the producer and manufacturer in the east, and the arid belt are large consumers of these goods, we claim we are entitled to in the reciprocity clause in the Mckinley bill.
 We have braved the mysteries of the wilderness; we have dled of thirst, and lost our scalps; we are called cutthroats and cowboys, but the greatest cutthroat of all is the U. $. Treasury Department who acknowledge that the only profit last year was S10,2l7, ,244 on the purchase of bullion. What is the necessity of maintaining the government by the purchasing of wheat and steel rails at market rates and ceiling to the consumer at a profit to the national exchequer? Why should the treasury department purchase silver bullion at all? Why should congress by its act force the min CT to plaster his mining machinery with silver certificates and the scratch of of Secretary Windom's pen ignite and consume all his hopes and sorrows, caus- ing Vultures to hover over his dead g dy and the arid land belt to pass into the same condition that the pioneer and prospector found it prior to 1850.

THE RAILROADS. New Engine Being Tested
 by the
 SOUTHERN PACIFIC. A Large Saving Made in the Cost
 of Fuel.
SOUTHERN PACIFIC.
Rumored Changes in the Souther-: Paoific--Ailfsrd's Extension ts
 be CoHpletsd.

The Los Angeles Times states that the Southern Pacific company is now testing 8 new locomotive at the San Fernando street yards, which promises to :revolutionize things in railroading. One of the biggest items of expense in railroading is fuel. It costs small fortune every month to feed each en- zine, and railroad men have puzzled their brains for years in a vain efert to cut this expense down, but up to date they have failed, unless the engine in question solves the problem. The engine con- sumes but little coal, and as far as the test has gone it seems to be . wonderful machine, capable of doing good work. If it proves success the chances are that all the engines now in use will be remodeled.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC CHANGES.

There is considerable uneasiness among the Southern Pacific railroad off cers in San Francisco according to ru- nor in this city. It seems that there has been considerable talk about change in the heads of departments un der President Huntington's manage ment, and the boys do not know where the thing will end. Mr. Hunt ington has not been satisfied with the way things have been running for some time past, and lntimated, it is said, that general shaking up must take place. The trouble began when J, c. stubbs resigned some months since to accept 8 position iu the east MT. Hunting ton was not consulted on Stubb's re- moval, and when he learned of the change he made such fuss about it that Mir. Stubba threw up his eastern position and returned to the Southern Pacific company. MT. Huntington has ths utmost confidence in Mir. Stubbs, and it is generally believed that he will be put at the head of the company on this coast. If this provision takes place the chances are that there will be a number of changes before things settle down again.
