Ohio is queer state in many ways. hui
in none so much as politically. In 1862 il
went 5000 Democratic, while the next year
1868, the Republicans elected Brougn gov
ernOr by lOl 900 majority over Vallandi-
CHAM, Democrat.
In the last thirty years Ohio has gone
Democratic seven times. or once in every
four years and fraction. Here are the
figures.

During these thirty years the Republicans
have not failed 10 carry the state at every
presidential election, their pluralities in
other years being from 1888 in 1861, when
Hayes beat Thurman for governor, to 1863,
their highest plurality, l0l, 900.
Last year when the state went 1000 Re

OBITUARY.

It is with sincere regret that the many friends of Hon. Grant H, Oury will learn of his death in this city. at 4:30 a. m. yesterday. For the past three years he was a sufferer to great extent, from throat troubles. With view of consult ing physicians he started some 1 or week since to New Orleans, but on ar rival at San Antonio, Texas he decided to return. On reaching Tucson he was at once placed under the Care of Dr. Handy, and everything that was possi- ble to alleviate his sutferings was done, and for time he appeared better, but yesterday death came to hls relief, as above noted.
 Mir Oury was about 66 years of age, a native of Missouri. but had lived long in 'Iexas, before coming to Arizona 30 years ago. He was lawyer by pro fession and twice represented thls terri tory in congress. In politics he was a strong partisan demecrat, but always 2 fair and honorable gentleman. A typi cai frontiersman, large of frame and big of heart, a good friend to the people of Arizona whom he serve iGyaily ard we'll His death V T be widely and deeply re gretted wife and one dangl. ter is left to ourn his l .sE.
 The body accompanied by friends and relatives wa; taki n to Florence where he has resided for the past two years, to be inferred.

The Silver King

At the Silver King mine the usual unsettled condition of affairs exist, brought about by the near election of a new management.
 Superintendent Groves has continued work in the Blk shaft for the past year.
 Report says, Eff the present manage ment continues the Blk shaft will be given up, and work renewed in the Ring shaft at the 400 foot level From here the work will be done toward the South King. There .are those who maintain that the King will as yet Ebe as good as it ever was, but with no ore in sight, one man can see as far into the ground as another, ard no frather.
 The mill is still running on tailings. but another month will finish them.
 The Mineral King Nj. & Nj. Co.'S plant is up and ready for business. The plant Is of ten ton capacity, all of first grade workmanship. The water supply comes from the mine. It is said work will begin as soon as the coke arrives. The mine is sunk to the depth of 4Ou feet. Several cross cuts have been made.
 w. H. Lempker is still working on the South Comstock and can show as much work done on claim as any man in Arizona,
 There are several claims in the neigh borhood that are taking out good ores.
 Col. Robt. Williams, McNeil & Co. Knight and c. w. Smith are the only business, men left.
 Col Williams hotel is as good as it was Tn the prosperous days, and the Col. will continue to serve the public we'll up to the last meal.
 The old ore road is washed in places several feet deep and in other places is completely wiped out.
 At Pinal Mrs. Poppelwell is post mis- tress and storekeeper. A school con- tinues with barely pupils enough to legally exist. The stores and saloon buildings are fast going to decay, the doors open land windows knocked out.
 It is we'll to say that c. Parran is liy- ing in the hotel formally run by Lem Drais, ready at all times to make your boots or do your cobbling.
 4 contract for 300,OOO pounds of rol- led :barley has been let to Col. Will iams and its delivery is going over the trail to Globe by mules and burros. This grain comes from Tempe and is 'reighted to Globe for s14O per 100 and sells at $3.50 to S4.00 4 contract for moving large amount of flour will soon 1e let.
 Parties from Tempe have estimated he cost of road from Pinal to connect with the Florence road to Globe, and vill buit1 it as soon sas Pinal completes he road, and Tempe proposes to come in nd outbid the Pinal people for every hing that is worth bidding for.-En- erprise.

GLOBE ROAD To be Constructed Southwest t9 Casa u rand. FINAL AID GILA Counties are to Se..:la t1e $50 COG
 Cost. A Splendid Country to be Opened Up--Minins, Agricultural and Lumbering Pursuits to be
 Furthered.
FINAL AND GILA

Road improvements are an Arizona feature now making to the fore. The Mammoth road to Tucson is now in the course of construction, and parties in from Riverside give good reports of the prospects for the road from Globe to Case Grande,. the survey being completed and work now in progress.
 The distance to be covered is Tn the neighborhood of 8 miles. The road is a county road, and will be built in strictly first class manner, we'll graded and we'll bridged.
 Few grades will be encountered, the heaviest being one of about three miles, where the fall is 300 feet to the mile.
 A large item of the cost will be the bridging of the Gila, at Riverside. A contract to build an iron bridge there, 300 feet in length, has been made with the San Francisco Bridge O., the con sideration being s19OOO Twenty five men are nov at work placing buttments, and the bridge will be completed with all speed possible.
 The cost of the road will be something near s5O,000, to be assumed by Pinal and Gila counties, division of payment to be made in the milage of each county. Pinal will pay S32,0O0 as its proportion, which will include the cost of bridging the Gila.
 As an outlet to the railroad for Globe this road will to great extent super sede tle ore to Wilcox. In addition to being some B miles shorter it will be a better road, less rough and no higher ground generally, making less muddy thoroughfare during the rainy season.
 Globe vicinity is woody country. The timber output is in great demand in Southern Arizona particularly with mines in Pinal county, mention of which the CITIZEN made yesterday. The agri- cultural output of southwestern Arizona is Tn as much demand at Globe as are it's lumber ar q other facilities south, and never ending mutual benefits mus. accrue.
 Speaking of the Riverside mines, they will be at least as much benefited as any to utilize the road. The chief and really the only drawback to these properties has been that there are so poor hauling facilities. The ore un- less exceedingly rich would not pay for the hauling. Coke for milling could only be put down at the mlnes at enormous figures somewhere about s20 a ton. and often higher. Timber for mines cost s55 thousand.
 With the new road d.these difficulties are all to be obviated. Hauling of ores for shipment will be about one-third of the present cost; coke will be laid down at the mines for S7 ton, and mine tim bers, instead of costing S55 per thou sand will be netted to them at SIS per thousand.
 The enterprise is splendid thing for Pinal and GIla counties, and will be an other forward step in the progression of all Arizona.

Arizona Statistics.

Arizona has an area of 113,OOO square miles. Population 59,691; total taxable property S2S,050.234, but this is not ov- CT one half the true valuation.

The railroad milage 1893 miles; there are 70l miles of irrigation canals m the territory, and 295,OOO acres of land irrigated. The arabic land which is practically irrigable amounts to 5,5OO.OOO. There were 200 900 head of cattle ship ped from the territory in 1880 and the first half of 1890. The output of gold, silver and copper mined in 'S9 amounted to S4,51O,343.20. The pine forests of the San Francisco mountains cover l,150,000 acres. The value of school property is S280,O00; the expendi- lures for school amount to Sl43.OOO; number of children between 6 and Is years of age is 10,76O, and of those 1000 are lnrolied in l90 public schools. The above has been mostly taken from the report of the secretary of the territory. and may be accepted as reliable.-En, terprise.

Our Copper.

In alluding the copper deposits of Southeastern Arizona and New Mexico 0 the Denver Republican says: "Some day an enormous amount of capital will be invested in the development of copper mines in New Mexico and Arizona. The wealth of the Southwest is Very far from being confined to one district.
 In Southwestern New Mexico and Southeastern Arizona there are vast de- posits of copper, some of which is almost pure. When the demand of copper be- comes great enough for the develop ment of these deposites, the output of the southwest in that metal will make New Mexico and Arizona rank with Lake Superior County in copper pro- duction."

OTHER RIVERSIDE PROPERTIES.
MT Roucbo- mentioned sava-ol o.b,

MT Boucher mentioned several other good properties of thIs vicinity.
 The Victoria and the Hamilton are two claims near the Gila now under bond. The ore is chiefly gold, in ledges varying from to 20 feet in thickness. Sales of these properties will also prob ably soon be made.
 D. Ii. Snyder, Wm. Suffren, J. Brier- ton and Harry Shaw have some fine mineral properties in this region.
 The great drawback to the profitable working of these properties in the past has been the utter lack of hauling and road facilities. This difficulty is to be remedied by the building of the Globe and Casa Grande road, full details of which will be given in tomorrow's C1TI- ZEN.

Superintendent F. M. Murphy is hay ing 100 tons of Congress ore taken to Copper Basin for treatment.
 The Crowned King mill has been clos ed down, on account of bad roads. A railroad to the Bradshaw mountains would enable this property, as we'll as several others. to continue operations the entire year.
 Another vanadium mine is reported to have been discovered recently near the southern boundry line of this county. Dr. Lincoln owns d similar property near Agua Fria from which he has bf en able to supply the entire demand of he world for this metal.
 w. H. Morris, of the Arizona PI os- pecting anG Mining company operating Tn Cherry Creek district was in town to- day. The company of which he is a member has recently finished the erec- tion of stamp mill on Cherry Creek which has been in operation now for two weeks crushing gold rock from the Homestake mine. The ore is very rich Tn gold, and cleanup will be made shortly which will enable them to de- termine as to the best progress of treat ing it.
 Prospector.
 No further news of Indians in the mountains surrounding this vicinity has been reported.
 A carload of ore was shipped from the Silver Bill mine at Turquois yesterday and one from Si Bryant's mine the day previous. A rich strike is reported in the latter's mine. Horn silver in abund- arce all through the ore is the size of it. A party of prospectorS brought in some rock yesterday from a new lind. It con- tains horn silver in visable form and IS said to be big ledge, about three miles from the camp.
 The show by the boys came off last night and netted about three dollars. Admission was fixed 1t five cents. The shooting of an apple off the head of his son by William Tell WAS very clever The gun went off, the boy ducked Els head, the apple rolled behind the scenes, where 1t was picked up and hole run through it with a round stick after winch 1t was exhibited to the audience. The show was in reality more enjoyable than many of the Minstrel shows visit ing Tombstone. It wills probably be re- peated at the near future.

MINING. Some Notes on Riverside District Properties. A SPLENDID SHOWING. The Ray, Poor Man, Trudy and
 Ripsey. A Certificate of Assay Showing What One of Them is Pro-
 ducing.

By dropping ln Wetmore's assaylng office at almost any time mining man or twoican be found. MT. Boucher was making a business call there when our ink spreader made his daily visit a day since, and found the gentleman with something to say of mining matters in his portion of Arizona, up Riverside way.
 THE RAY MINE.
 The mine has until of late been worked by R. D. Rhodes, who is at present su- perintendent of the Speculation mine. at Olive Camp. It is good property and much work has been done upon 1t. The ore of thIs property is worked only for the copper and it runs from 10 to F ger cent in that metal. The ore is in a good body, the foot and hanging walls being 40 feet apart. Much of it is na- tive, and great sheets of copper quar- ter of aD inch thick can be taken out. The shaft of this mine Is down about 200 feet, and from 2,50O to 5000 feet of work has beer done on the property, all together.
 The annual assessment work on it has just been completed.
 THE POOR MAN.
 This property is situated several miles from the Ray, IS similar to it in ore, and is also a fine proposition, the body of ore being some 20 feet thick. The shaft in this mine is down 100 feet and con- siderable work here has also been dore. One level has been worked 1S5 feet back and another one 80 feet. The work Oh this property has been done for some time, and at present little is being done with it except to keep it in good repair. Its owners are Messrs. l.. Zeckendorf & O., of this citY. It understood that negotiations are now pending for the disposition of this property to an Eng fish company.
 THE RIPSEY GROUP.
 This group IS situated some eight miles southwest of Riverside proper and is as fine group of mines as perhaps any of Arizona's many properties. The ores are of a totally different nature from those Of the Ray and Poor Man, gold and silver being the valuable con stituents. Mir. Boucher IS one of the owners of the group, and the following IS sworn report of assay from one of the group, the Boucher:
