SECONDHAND COIN.
Abraided Silver and Trade Dollars Being
Worked Over.

Worked Over.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Congress at
the last session authorized the recoinage
of the uncurrent fractional silver coin
now in the treasury, abraided below the
limit of tolerance, and made an appro-
priation of $4,000 to cover the loss to
the coin by abrasion, etc. This sum, it
is estimated, will cover the loss on about
$4,000,000 of coin, and this amount is
now being coined into quarter dollars
and dimes, for which there is a very
great demand. The recoinage into
standard silver dollars of the $4,000, 900
trade dollars bullion, which the last
congress authorized, is also now in pro-
preSS.

few years ago created a sensation by her

THE ADJUTANT.GENERAL.

General William o. O'Neil having ten dered his resignation as Adjutant-Gen- eral to Governor Irwin, the latter yester- day appointed Edwin s. Gill, editor of TIE REprBLIcAN, to the position. Since his residence in Arizona Mir. Gill has labored earnestly to advance the mate rial interests of the Territory and has been especially jealous in his work for the Republican party. His appointment is not only fattering recognition to him personally, but to the entire press of the Territory, which it was intended to honor. Mir. Gill is not entirely with out experience and service in the Ma tional Guard, having helped to organize the famous l4th Regiment of Ohio, which did such able work in the coal strikes in southeastern Ohio in 1S7S-9, and again at the great riot in Cincinnati in Feb ruary, 1884, when it's Lieutenant-Colonel was among the wounded and several of it's men were killed.
 To General O'Neil is due much praise for energetic and persistent work in bringing about the adoption of the new militia law, thereby putting the National Guard of Arizona on the high road to successful organization. Between him and his successor is the warmest bond of friendship, and the latter will devote his energy to successful elimination of the work so ably begun.

WHEN the Funding bill, as prepared by Governor Wolfley, was before Con- gress Mark Smith delayed and endan- gered it's passage by moving to cut down the life time of the bonds to be issued under it to a term of twenty years, re- deemable after ten years. After hard fight before the Senate, Governor Vol Aey got the life time of the bonds rein. stated at fifty years, but when it came back to the House for concurrence Mir. Smith again attacked it, and it was only after long hard struggle that the time was placed at fifty years, redeemable after twenty years, at the pleasure ol the Territory. To show how Marcus Aurelius' efforts must have been appre- ciated by his Democratic brethren, we turn to the acts of the Sixteenth Legis- lature and find that it hasin effect made the life of these bonds fifty years, for it's law makes the sinking fund to begin after fifty years"

SAYS the Tucson Citizen: "The Cop per Queen Company at Bisbee are ex' cavating, for exhibition at the Worlds Fair, mammoth specimen of ore from their mines. The work of chiseling the piece out has been going on for some time, and great care is being taken in it's extraction. It is estimated that when ready for shipment it will weigh five tons and will be in the shape of s brick, and will contain every known character of copper formation and colorings. It will, without doubt, be the most attractive specimen on exhibi' ton. We sincerely hope that other companies in the Territory will prove as enterprising.

TIE passage of the bill appropriatinp $30,000 foran exhibit at the Worlds Fair IS generally commended every where. Speaking of it the Flagstaff Democrat but voices the universal sentiment In the following: "AlmUst the last act of the Legislature was to pass law appropriat- ing s3O,000 for Arizona's exhibit at the Worlds Fair, and now since the same is law, it behooves every citizen of Arizona to put his shoulder to the wheel and work for the future advance ment and progress of our Territory by properly advertising it at the Worlds Fair. The Arizona Sandstone Company of Flagstaff, will do it's part in the way of furnishing stone for building in which to place Arizona exhibits. This appropriation is the stepping stone in advertising the Territory and will no doubt prove to be worth ten times the amount expended. Such an opportunity to convince the outside world of what Arizona is and what she will become when fully developed, is not offered in a lifetime. Now is the time to work and ii the proper interest is taken in the matter Arizona's population and wealth will be increased many fold within the next ten years"
