To Abandon Bowie.

There is a strong probability of the abandonment of Fort Bowie as \ mill tary reservation in the near future. The PRosPEcToR is informed that a report favorable to such a move will be made next month. The abandon ment of Bowie means the utter aban- donment of the Chiricahua mountains by those who have made homes in that vicinity, and their re-possession by Apaches, who were so recently taken from there and settled at San Carlos. The presence oi an armed force a, Fort Bowie, which is in the heart of that range of mountains, has been sufficient 10 keep away renegade Indians who might have cared to make their headquarters in the famil- far fastnesses of its canyons and mesas.
 Recent history shows that all Of the murders committed by Kid and his band have been in the Chiricahua mountains. It will also show that in all instances where therenegades have perpetrated outrages, Fort Bowie has been the nearest point to send for as- sis;ance, and troop were spet dily upon the scene and the Indisns scattered. Once let it be known that there are no more soldiers in ,the Chiricahua range and all of the rcopsin theS. army will not be able to keep the Chiricahua Apaches from leaving the San Carlos reservation and making their way to theIr old hunting grounds. The sound of the pick and drill will be heard no more in that favored sec ton of our county. Its resources, which are boundless and which are just beginping to attract the attention of capital, will be enve,oped in a cloud of fear and uncertainty that held sway over them for nearly s quarter of century, Fort Borie must not De abandoned

A Cyanide Boom.

The meeting of the Board of Trade held last night was an enthusiastic and successful one $. NJ. Barrow was chosen chairman and A. w. Smith secretary. The object of the meeting was to investigate the sdvisability Of paying a bonus to the promoters of n cyanide works to be erected within two miles of the city of Tombstone.
 A general discussion of the subject WAS indulged in, and a motion to pay S300 bonus for the placing of the plant was carried, and a committee of five to solicit subscriptions was appointed. Lew Aubury, who made the proposi- ton to the citizens through the Board Of Trade, stated that he had parties in Los Angeles who would put up plant to cost not less than 5000 If bonus of ten per cent of that amount would be guaranteed by the citizens to be paid when the works were in success iul operation.
 Mir. Aubury explained the working oi the process on ores which he had ex- perimented with. He claimed that he had worked silicious ores up to S5 per cent, and had during the last seven months proved beyond the peradven- ture of a doubt that a large majority O. the ores of the camp can be treated successfully by the cyanide process. His proposition was that the plant would work custom ores at SIP Der ton.
 This brought forth a lengthy dis cuosion between Mir. Aubury and MT. Bunker regarding the cost of reduc- ton by the cyanide process. Mir. Bunker thought SIP per ton too much to pay, and thought lower price should be guaranteed. Before the discussion eaded every man in the room understood the matter thorough ly, and was qualified to make suc- cess of he cyanide process.
 The question resolved itself into the simple one of whether the citizens would be willing to put up $300 to find out whether the ore of the camp rould be successfully treated or not The meeting decided in the affirmative. The committee appointed to solicit subscriptions is composed of the fol lowing named citizens: K. w. Wood, Wm. Hsrwood, s. NJ. Barrow, E. 5ydcw and s. c. Bagg.
 A subscription list was opened and $40 was subscribed on the spot.

COUNCIL.
Then and Now,

Mining camps that were considered third rate propositions and not worth looking at few years ago are now among the biggest producers of Co., chise county. Ten years ago it was impossible to work $25 silver rock in CochIse county. Now $20 and Sl5 ore is shipped at a profit. Turquois camp was not in ii ten years ago, but now IS one of our big bonanzas. The Lucky Cuss mine in this district was abandoned and lay idle foe years. IL is now the life of the camp. The Comet mine and Black Eagle were not worth quarreling over ten years ago, but are tied up now in law suit that means millions to the winner. Thousands ef tons of ore are shipped yearly from Harshaw and vicinity that could not be pro6tably handled ten years ago.
 Low grade gold and silver ores sll over the county are now the msinstay of the mining industry. Year by year the cost of working ores decreases and the vaiue of the ore increases cores. pondingly. Another year or two will see the cost of production and reduc' tion reduced 10 & minimum. We are surely approaching an era of prosper. ity that the most ardent enthusiasm never dreamed of.
