From Sonora.

Max Marks returned last night from 8 trip to Guaymas and Hermosillo. He reports the grass not good and cattle he thinks must suffer more than in Arizona. The crops are not very good; the report of suffering is how ever overdrawn; there is no famine or signs of any. The country was never more healthy and accounts of Yellow fever are made out of whole cloth.
 J. P. Camou has appointed MT. Marks his attorney to make settle ments, to sell ground and in fact do anything that he could himself do with the San Rafael grant. He offers to sell for$l.75 per acre.
 A company has been formed in Guaymas to navigate the Yaqui river, and two river steamers have been or dered from ean Fransisco. This will open up new source of trade which will be profitable oae as we'll as 8 means for. the farmers to get their crops to market with less expense than at present.

A Good Idea.

The hiners' convention to be held at El PasO should not be overlooked by Arizona mining men. At Albu- querque last Saturday the Citizen re- ports that F. L. Smith and Professor Blandy, representing Arizona, and Adna Lameon and c. O'COnor Rob erts, representing New Mexico, the subcommittee appointed to confer with Fl Paso in regard to the miners congress, held meeting and decided on plan for concerted action. The governors of the two territories will be asked to appoint proper person in each camp whose duty it will be to correspond directly with the Fl Paso committee. In this way the necessity of convention in both territories, that will cost much money, will be done away with and full representa- ton secured. Fl Paso is said to have raised $5,O00 to defray the expenses of the convention.

Special orders have been given re- garding the exchange of the 9th and 1lth infantry. Whether the band of the 1lth is to be stationed at Hua- chuca or Apache can be judged or rather guessed at from the following order issued from Los Angeles:
 The Headquarters and Band of the Eleventh Infantry and two companies of the regimennt will upon arrival in the department proceed to Fort Huachua and take station at Fort Apache, proceeding by rail to Holbrook Arizona from which point they will march to their destination.

THE general impression that seems to prevail that fifty miles of railroad must be built within year from the fling of an intention to build, is in correct The law simply requires the road to he built at the rate of fifty miles per year from the date of filing intention or in other words 15Q miles of road might be built the last six months of three years and still he within the limit of the law.- Phenix Herald.
 Under the same plan of reasoning, a man could build l of a mile of road one day in 365 and hold his claim.

ARIZONA TOO.;
Logic From thel Lungs of a
 Prominent New Mexican

Tom Catron of New Mexico, one of the foremost politicians of that terri tory talked to St. Louis paper & few days since and here is what he said:
 "The people of New Mexico today are unit for admission as a state. This was brought about by the opera tion of what is known as the anti-alien law. The law was passed on March 3, 1887, by congress. prohibiting all aliens and alien corporations from owning real estate in the territory, in cluding mine property. and it drove most of the foreign capital away. The territory contains l50.OO0 people, of whom one-half are foreigners and one half from the states. The last legisla- ture passed very liberal school law requiring the teaching of the English language. Ninety per cent of the children of school age attend schools. The school buildings are scattered in every part of the territory, and where. ever there are fifteen children you will find school district. The constitution prepared last year was voted on and rejected by the people owing to local causes and because of certain clauses which tended to prejudice people in certain parts of the territory. The democratic party opposed it because its members believed the apportion- ment of representatives in the legisla- ture was unfair to them. Neverthe- less, it was recognized in other quar- ters as being fair. As long as the ter ritory's principal officials are appoint cd by the federal government it can not progress"
Tombstone epitaph., 1891-09-27

Emigrants who come to Arizona to grow up with the country are welcome and should be aided in every way to get start. We do not expect them however, to go to office seeKingas soon as they get here, neither do we coun- tenance their still owing allegiance to their native countries while receiving the benefits of Arizona Incense and the protection of Arizona laws. Ex-Judge Barnes who stands with one foot in Illinois and the other in Arizona, jumping first one way and then the other, is an illustration of what we mean. When the troops are on an Indian trail they go into camp when it shows signs of getting fresh, an Barnes is not the only example oi those whose trail is too fresh in to the territory to follow with impunity The republican press of the territory take the same delight in boosting him t O the front in the democratic ranks that ..the democratic papers do in pat ting ex-Gov. Wolf1ey on the back. ant with the same object in view.
Tombstone epitaph., 1891-09-27

THE fee system with office holder, is wrong one and should be abolished
 and salary paid in all cases where officers are liable to overstep the bounds of reason to make ends meet. The wholesale arrests of persons charged with not living up to the Ed munds Act may be carried too far
 and where it is, trouble is liable to fol- low. The senator from Vermont must have had the Green mountain boys in his mind when he framed the famous bill bearing his name, When a man or woman in Arizona is falsely accused of transgressing the laws oi society, something drops besides tears
