The Graham County Railroad.

The proposed new railroad from
Bowie into Graham county will surely
be built says Judge Fitzgerald, IN from
there. A new survey Is now under way
and making good progress. 1t will leave
the valley and Solomonville several
miles. but will be considerably cheaper
than the route of the first survey. 1t
is wanted as much as ever however, and
the farmers will go a mile or two in
wagons, if need be, without grumbling
any.
Much indignation is expressed by the
land owners at the doubling of valuation
of Graham county lands by the terri
torlal board of equalization. The Judge
says the county board did not want the
raise. OF course, he says, the higher the
valuation, the lower the rate, 30 that
if all taxpayers were land owners it
would be the same thing, whatever the
valuation. But with the present ar
rangement be says it is very unfair to
the land owners. The county valuation,
at Sl5 an acre was all the land was
worth, says Judge Fitzgerald while the
new rate is outrageous. He is unable
to say what will be done in the matter

Arrested for an Old Murder.

Over year after murder was CON-
mitted by Lsuro Ramirez, alias Quay
mas. He has been arrested and put in
Jail.
In July 1892 a man named Rafael
Mendez was murdered at Ramirez
house, at Pantano. A coroner's verdict,
in view of the circumstances, held the
killing iusiifiable. The deceased had
been shot and stabbed, and the door and
window of the house were smashed
in by crowbar. The witnesses, two
women, concurred with Ramirez story
that Mendez had been killed in de-
Tending his house and the chastity of
it's inmates. % these grounds the
accused was cleared.
Since then Ramirez has been working
on the ranches about the country. He
always went fully armed, and was in
constant fear of vengeance of the
brother IF the dead mau.
New light in the case having come
out lately he was srrested, at thu Empire
ranch, yesterday, by Sheriff Scott. He
supposed the coroner's decision fore
ever cleared him, but has now learned
different.

Hon. MARCUS A. SMITH, congressman
from the San Simon district of Arizona,
is peculiarly unfortunate in always be-
ing sick or disabled when a great crisis
that needs his directing hand is before
the country for consideration. He was
sick and confined to his room when con-
gress, seeing it's opportunity, ungal-
lantly took advantage of his absence
and passed the land court bill. He
slipped on the tricky floor of Wash
ington hotel and unbuckled one of bis
ankle joints at the very time when state
hood for Arizona needed an extra jack
pot to help it through the senate, and
now when the west looked askance for
the free coinage of silver it finds him
prostrated with malignant fever and the
gold bugs carry the day and the white
metal is to be unfrocked. We are
pleased TO announce that he is now
happily convalescing, but, knowing this,
it is greatly to be feared that the enc
mics OF silver will rush its disfranchise-
ment through the senate before he has
go far recovered as to stay their evil
Vaccinations. That he reaches the field
after the dead have been buried is no
fault of his we admit, but at the same
time we cannot but regret that misfor-
tune should be his handmade at the
time she should be farthest from him
We join with others of his friends in
hoping that good fortune and good
health will hereafter attend him.

MONEY HOARDED FOR THE
WORLDS FAIR.

And now the Worlds fair is charged
with being the cause of the present
depression in business. a New York
paper assumes that there are 100000
of the American people, not keeping a
bank account, who have for months
been boarding money, which they would
in ordinary years have spent, in order
that they may have the means TO at
tend the fair. 1t estimates that 500
is a fair average of the sum that has
been thus gradually withdrawn from
circulation, by or for each of these
100000 persons, making an aggregate
of S4OO,OO0OO1
This may be an excessive estimate,
but there is no doubt that in the ag-
gregate a very large sum Of money has
been saved up for the purpose of Wis
itlng the Worlds fair. This money
will be all spent within a couple of
and will, to a great extent, re-
lieve the stringency, as far as small
currency is concentrates Angeles

A Third Failure at Phoenix.

Another commercial failure is re-
ported from Phoenix, of the Bee Hive
concern, owned by Mr.. Winters. The
amouDt of the liabilities is not given
out. 1t includes, however, q mortgage
of s22,50O.
In addition to the estimated value OF
the stock, $4,000. there are other assets,
such as accounts, horses, cattle, real es-
tate, etc, which swell the total 20 S91,-
7S5. From these figures it would ap-
pear that satisfactory adjustment may
be easily reached.
The concern has considerable out in
good book accounts.
A Mr.. HeDshaw has been appointed
receiver of the establishment. Business
will be continued. Phoenix is the only
town in the territory experiencing any
failures. These are ia part attributed
by those having an acquaintance with
business of the territory to Overstock-
ing during the boom last winter.

Cutting Hay ON the N esa

Several thousand acres OF the mesa to
the southwark is being shorn of the hay
that has sprung up there in the past
few weeks, by William Hartt.
Mr.. Hartt says there are three tracts,
OF mile square, a mile by two miles
and half mile by tive miles. The
grass is not heavy, but in the aggregate
will be several hundred tons. 1t will
make excellent feed. Mr.. Hartt will put
ballng machines in shortly. The hay
will be brought to Tucson, and stored,
for sale.
Hartt stole a march on others, who
have been looking with covetous eyes on
the grass he Is cutting. They knew he
was after the grass and he knew they
knew it. He has, therefore, been in
town pretty continually of lsts, letting
the opposition think he was therefore
doing nothing with the grass. Mean
while he had three mowers, one at each
tract, which soon had big swath cut
around each. Most of the hay is new

THE amount due to Individual de-
positors in the national banks has been
decreased sl96,0O0,OOO in the past fiscal
year. Some people wonder what has
become of this money says the San
Francisco Bulletin and failing to find
any other reason, conclude that it has
been hid away, or put in vaults Of safe
deposit companies at the expense of the
owners. In the first place there has
been no such amount OF money with
drawn from the national banks during
this interval. Most of the sum simply
represents a cancelled credit. The de-
positors were owing the banks and had
their deposits applied to the cancella-
tions of their loans. The banks owe
their depositors so much less and bor-
rowers from the banks owe the banks
so much less. These changes account
for most of the difference. The sur
prise sometimes expressed that deposi-
tors should take tn money out of the
banks where it was earning interest and
pay for its keeping in safe deposit vaults
might count for something if the national
banks paid interest on deposits, which
does not happen to be the case.

IRRIGATION ON SANTA CRUZ.
The System to be Improved by the
Construction of a Dam.

The ranchers in the valley are at
present put to extra work and expense
owing to damages by the late rains, but
probabilities are they will be better off
soon in the way of water than ever be-
fore.
They are through following the cut
of floods of successive years and will
now stop and come down stream and
impound the water. Work is now being
done with activity on a dam that will
be located half a mile above the road
crossing the valley to Warmers mill.
There they ere putting in brush and
stone and dirt.
From this the water will be drawn in
two canals on the east side of the river,
as before while another, feeding a series
of bitches on the other side Of the river
will be put in. On the east side good
sized fume is now being put across
another cut made by the late high
waters.
MORE WATER THAN BEFORE.
when the water system Is completed
it will furnish much more water than
has been Obtainable in the past. The
floods cut down to the underground
fow,, which will be heavily drawn upon.
During the past year the ranchers some.
times suerffed for water.
One big loss of water has been due to
Silver lake. The lake covers thirty
acres, and it is estimated that svapora-
ton in Arizona in the summer time is
an inch day. Now an inch of water
on an acre of land is sufficient irrigation
for fifteen days. Thus it will be seen
that the lake evaporation could irrigate
fifteen thirty acre tracts, or total of
450 acres. Before the advent of Silver
lake there was abundance Of water for
rsnchers. Since then it has at times
been short.
THREE THOUSAND ACRES INCREASE.
The estimate Is made by a prominent
rahcher in the valley that with the flow
developed by the floods and from the
new Allison canal 5000 acres more than
at present will be put under irrigation.
Two thousand acres will be under the
Allison ditch, while another thousand
may be put in by Sam Hughes and
and others.
Much of the land will be sowed to al
falfa. Alfalfa always has ready sale in
Tucson, as does fat beef. Even if the
hay could not be sold it would be highly
profitable to fatten feeders on.

AT TEE MOHAWK.
What Connecticut Capital Will
Do at Mammoth.
The Property Will Probably Event
ually Equal the Mammoth
A Rich Fifty Tons.

How large a milling plant the Mo-
hawk company, of Mammoth, will put
in it is not definitely settled. says Super
intendent Bailey, in from Mammoth.
He says it will not probably at first be
SO large as the Mammoth, though the
plant may be enlarged as operations are
continued. He is not positive at present
as to when the mill will be put in or
whether it will be stamps, though it is
likely stamps will be used.
The company may put in Rsber
amalgamator. The Mohawk people
have been getting the advantage of ex-
periments at the Mammoth. The Raber
process may save eighty per cent of the
assay value, say Mr.. Bailey, while here
tofore sixty to sixty-fve pc. cent was
saved at the Mammoth. Superintendent
Barnhart and ex-Superintendent John
ston have good opinion OF the Raber
amaigamator.
The late rains have delayed work at
the Mohawk good deal. Roads to the
Catalinas we're cut out, preventing the
getting out of timbers. Men are now
repairing the roads. Work WAS sus-
pended Wednesday on the sinking of
the new double compartment shaft at
the depth of fifty feet. This was done
rs it was not considered advisable to 60
deeper without timbering, which cannot
he done till roads are made. Two other
shafts are already dswn on the prop
erty. The new one will much facilitate
the handling of ores when the Mohawk
is in operation.
The ore of the Mohawk is in great
bodies similar to the Mammoth, and
equally as rich. In fact at an expert
mental run of fifty tors o. Mohawk ore
made ct the Mammoth mill the mill
man said the ore was The richest he had
worked in months.
All work now is held back awaiting
the tim bers.
The Mohawk is owned by Hartford,
Conn, capital.

National Guard Called Out.

REDLANDs, Cal. Sept. 2.-The precau-
tions taken by calling out of the National
Guard and swearing in ole hundred
fifty extra police. prevented the expect
ed attempt tn drive out the chinese last
night. No characterization was made by
laborers and the town is perfectly quiet
today. Company b. 9th regiment was
on duty all night and is still held sub
ject to call. Extra police are under the
orders of marshall Kendall and sheriff
Booth, and will be called out tonight if
necessary. The means taken to pre-
serve order has kept the agltators from
any effort to carry out their threats
against the cinnamon and the movement
is thought to be eIectually checked.

STATISTICS, recently prepared by the
mint bureau, show that the production
OF gold and silver from 1892 to 1892 ag-
gregated s1G,738,s68,OO0, of which
s5,633, ,9OS, 900 was gold and s., ,l04, ,96l, 900
was silver. OF the gold produced
1882. .605,OOO was coined as money and
the remainder was used in the arts,
while Of the silver produced s4, ,042, ,700,-
900 was coined as money and the re-
mainder was used in the arts. The
CURIOUS fact is brought out that large
proportion of the gold used in the arts
is absorbed in the practice of dentistry,
60 that q great portion of the gold &c
used is lost. 1t is noteworthy that the
amounts OF gold and silver produced
during the century nearly balance each
other, though the gold exceeds the sill

solution, calling upon the secre-

Hanged at Last.

COLUMBIA, s. O., Sept. 1.-George S.
Turner was hanged at Spartanburg to-
day, ending a most notorious case.
Turner was man of wealth and prom
inence, owning the Fingerville cotton
factory. He seduced his sister-in-law,
killed her brother and then for three
years used his wealth in employing the
best legal talent in the state to attempt
to defeat the death verdict. On account
of the threats of his rough mountain
friends, the Jail was guarded by troops,
but there was no disturbance.
At Berkeley, s. c., today, Oscar John
son was hanged for numbering Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Twettman, at Lincolnville,
last March. He died horrible death,
being slowly strsngled.
