According to a telegram recently sent out, parties are now en route to Arizona from Harvard College to look up a suitable location for an observatory. It was announced that their first objective point was Pres colt. Our citizens should move in the matter of properly receiving this committee. A mass meeting should be held and committee ap- pointed to show them the various desirable places for such an institu- ton. While there are many such places here, the opinion generally expressed is that Mt. Union is the most desirable of all, on account of its greater altitude. It is over 10000 feet high, and is easy of ac- cess to its very summit. There are several points, though, which should be shown these visitors. As the establishment of this observa- tory means much to the particular section selected, our citizens should not lack interest in the matter, but should use all honorable means to secure it. 1t is very probable that no favoritism will be shown in the matter of it's location, but that a site will be selected which will best be adopted for it. Taking all things into consideration, we be- lieve that the immediate vicinity of Prescott affords such place.

Crocker, Mayor Gilroy, of New York. Thomas E. Crimmons, court contractor, Patrick DIvver, police justice, will arrive here to-day and that they have a vessel ready to take them out of the country at a moments notice. The Call will say that they are afraid of legal action against them in New York election frauds, and that if warning comes they will probably go to Honolulu 1 here by notify you that I will hold the Associated Press as an association or any newspaper publishing same in connection with my name res ponsible before the courts for the asiE0tAlatiOt. sssfd dissemination of what is so far as am concerned vilisinods lie.

 The New York Recorder shows the folly of a single standard. in the following plain, truthful terms: "The gold standard madness has sold the American producers into bondage to the foreign interest gatherers. Two million dollars a day is about what the American people are paying the Eupopean Gold Trust. How do they pay iti They pay it in food and other raw products. Plainly enough the lower the prices of their wheat, barley, corn and cotton are depressed on European markets the more they will have to pay to meet their inter- sst obligations. Fifty bushels of American wheat in 1873 paid as much interest (in gold) as one hun dred bushels will pay to-day. And the longer we submit to the appre- citation of gold and the consequent depreciation of everything we pro- duce the harder times will grow, and the more hopeless will become the lot of our people-farmers, planters, manufacturers, factory workers and all. The best protect i've tariff that was ever framed can not produce prosperity in the face of contracting currency and con stantly inflated measure of values"

Bio BUa. March l.-[Special cor respondence. Being on visit to some of the mines in this district, find the hills arc full of prospectors. George Whitaker is taking $50 ore out of mine he has leased of Frank Bliss and Joe Askew.
 Jim Slack the man that discover ed the Yankee Girl (now the Henri etta), has again made rich strike in the 79, formerly the LottA. This mine has a shaft 2O0 feet in depth, with a crosscut tunnel 300 feet in length. The south drift, l5O feet from the top, is in 100 feet on an ore chute of two and half feet in width. the ore assays $40 in gold and 60 ozs. silver per ton. Mir. Slack is working the mine with three men, and is taking out lots of ore which has been milling $40 to SJ0 per ton, but this rich strike sends 1t up into the hundreds. He also has very rich ore in the first level, 75 feet from the top in the north drift. This mine is the best developed mine in the district ex- cept the Henrietta. There has been some Denver parties examining 1t, with view of purchasing. A Den yer mining man says if he had a mine like this in Cripple creet, Col oradO, one hundred thousand dol lars would be nowhere, or no price for such property.
 The Dividend mine is looking fine. Messrs. Johndrew and Butler de- serve credit for having the stamina tO develop such a mine. that has lain dormant for ages, under U. :. patent.
 John .. Jones l5-stamp mill is running night and day on ore from the Little Jessie dump, which pays g per ton pretty good showing for paltTy dump of several thou sand tons. Mir. Jones is certainly catching the worm.
 Tom Mcdonald and Wm. Mccoy have struck very rich gold ore in a mine supposed to he an extension of the @. Tom thinks he has in sight all he wants.
 The Henrietta mill, under the management of Nick Palmer, is turning out lots of bullion.
 Jesse Davis and Len Laphoon have fine looking gold nine on Big Bug. It is what they call low grade, running Sl5 per ton.
 I think Chaparral and Big Bug will, in one year hence, be one of the greatest gold producing camps of any on the Pacific slope. All it wants is labor and machinery. More in my next. J. R. S.

It is not likely that any fatted calf will be killed by either the democratic party or the repub- lican party, to welcome the return of such political renegades, whose politics can be waited before any breeze that is famed by the al mighty dollar, and whose only po- litical creed is individual advance ment. If the election in December had a disheartening influence on them, that of February in Pennsyl- vania had 8 most distressing effect.
 The Arizona Enterprise, which has made three or four political hops within as many years, being republican, independent, populist, and back to independent, shows signs now of intending another pc litical summersault. It is growing quite solicitous about the republi- can party. Read what it says: "If any republican thinks that his party is to gain anything by favor ing Hughes, he is mistaken. We have been around the territory much, talked with the people and know the prevailing sentiment. We find the democratic party more united and more harmonious than ever before. Whether we like it or not, this is fact" If there is any republican in the territory favoring Hughes, and is actuated from the motive of expecting to benefit his
  party, hois, to say the least, in small business. The man who favors or abuses Hughes, or any other publi c official, solely on account of expect ed partisan advantage, is not pos sessed of many of the sterner or better qualities which go to make up a true man. Fairness and jus tice should be the motives underly- ing all criticism of public officials, it be favorable or adverse. When Hughes performs his official duties satisfactorily he should be given due credit. When he goes astray from the principles of right, in them, he should be roasted" The same applies to any other off cial, equally with Governor Hughes.

sIMETALIsM GAINING GRouNl,

AAAAAALAsA GAlNiN6 GROUND.
 1t Is announced that Emperor William of Germany is devoting great attention to bimetalism. He desires the government to take every step possible to prevent further fall in the price of silver. This infor- nation, coming right on the heels of the article recently published in tho London Financial News, shows conclusively that the world is awakening to the importance of having silver as a money metal. The action taken by this govern ment in stopping the coinage of silver was nothing less than crime. It was perpetrated at the instiga- ton of and in the the interests of m ney dealers, and it has resulted disastrously to every other class of people. By enhancing the purchas- ing power of gold every species of property has been relatively de- precIated in value. That the framers of the constitution of the Unitel States intended that silver should be a money metal, equally with gold seems sell evident to any unpreiudiced mind.
 Section eight article one of the constitution defines the powers of congress. 1t has been claimed that in defining these powers, the con situation is not mandatory. While not being of an absolute mandatory nature, yet when the exigencies of the case require it. the conferring of the various powers on congress, by this article, indicates that con gress shall exercise them as we'll, when occasion demands.
 Among the powers conferred are, to lay and collect taxes, duties, im- posts, &c.; borrow money; regulate commerce; establish uniform rule of naturalization and
 ITO COIN MONEY AND REGULATE THE VALUE THERFoF.'
 Section ten of the same article prohibits the states from assuming any of the powers granted to or in conflict with those possessed by the congress of the United States.
 1t also defines what the framers of the constitution considered money as it specially prohibits any state from establishing a money of it's own. The language of this article is that,
 NO STATE SHALL MAKE ANYTHING BUT GOLD AND SILVER COIN TENDER IN PAYMENT OF DEBTS"
 Does any sane, reasonable man, doubt from reading the above that the framers of the constitution, in- tended that gold and silver alike should be the money of the countryi If that was not what they meant, why did they insert this prohibition against the states making the use of something as else money7
 There can be no doubt that gold and silver were intended alike as money, were used as money at the time and it was contemplated that they always should be. This fact being established, where does cons gress get its power to coin gold and not silverl
 No place in the constitution is the power conferred on congress to coin either gold or silver to the exclu- .siosa -.sf Glas,-s. s.tls,.f meta,
 I: congress would repeal all Of its silver legislation and get down to business on a constitutional basis and permit silver to ta ke its place of gold as the constitu- ton intends it should, the country would again enter upon an era of prosperity.
