Arizonas Wealth.

Speaking about mines," said Mai Thomas R. Smith last evening at the HOllenbech, it cannot be disputed that Arizona is coming to the front as a great mineral producing country. In the HGrqua Hala, Globe. Grande, Yuma. Florence, Hassayampa and other dis tricts l could mention. the mineral out put, either of gold or silver, is immense even a the present time. and with the inve tment of more capital and further development and work on the mines now opened, 1 doubt whether any state or territory would excel Arizona in the richness Ot their mines I am so thoroughly convinced of this fact that l do not even except Mexico I have been in many sections of Mexico, Cobra do, Nevada. New Mexico and O her min ing states. territories and republics, yet l am thoroughly convinced that in time ..rlzOna will ake the lead of them all.

The Boss Liar,

The Associated Press correspondent at Phoenix reports that ''grass hoppers" have destroyed corn and vegetation of ell kinds in Williamson valley, sixteen miles northwest of Prescott. The swarms are like those in Kansas in 1876 They are the first in Arizona for years If the aforesaid correspondent was not so insignificant that he IS beneath the mo- tice of him who notes the sparrow g fall aud whose providence extends even to the worms crawl on the earth, he would probably have suffered the fate of Annanias and SapphIa long befo! e this time, for of all the falsehoods that are sent over the wires, the Phoenix cor respondent is entitled to the diploma as the boss liar. It makes little difference to him what he lies about, too. He will telegraph falsehocd that tends te in~ jure the credit of the Territory with as much ponchalence as he will one about lost mine CT other improba ble creation of b;s brain. He attempts to spread himself all over the Territory, too, and where he obtains one item Cf news to telegraph be creates ten of falsehood. The people of Phoenix should demand riS removal. He Is an injury not only to that town. but to the entire Territory. -Journal Miner.

The Silver Question.
EDITOR CITIZEN:

l notice in recent issue the estimates of k. O. Leech, the director of the mint, with regard to the amount of gold and silver coin in the different nations of the world, and in the United States
 No one can accuse Director Leech of being espe ially friendly to free silver and his statistics and figures are recog- niZed as authorative, and they are very instructive and suggestive. He says that France has nine hundred millions Tn gold and seven hundred millions in
 silver coin, whilst the United States has only seven hundred millions in gold and four hundred and eIghty-seven millions m silver. Now the population of France IS about half that of the United States, which makes the coin supply there about $50 per capita. whilst in the United States the per capita on au esti- mate of population of sixty millions, which we know is considerably under the mark, IS, according to Mir. Lsech. less than twenty dollars. Now just give that thought. In view of our enormous business development. and continual great increase of population and We need wonder no longer tha, money is scarce, business com psratiFely ssrsli.sd aad seeisl ssnditisss shEsss
