An accident occurred Tuesday at
the Locks in whicha man by the name
of Smith came near losing his life.
Just before the steamer Dalles City
was ready to leave for Portland.a "a blast
at the government works was dis
charged, throwing a rock high in the
air, and as it descended it crashed
through the deck of the steamer strik-
ing Smith on the head, inflicting seri-
Gus injuries. The injured man was
taken to Portland and placed in hos
pital where he will be cared for. The
accident was one of those unforeseen
occurrences that happen only once in
Il life time, and while such an accident
will likely never occur again, it could
not have been foretold or psevented
No blame could be attached either to
the officers of the boat or the men in
charge of the work who discharged
the blast.

 Contested Game.

Prescott Courier: B. F. De Uanty, captain of the Prescott football team, received a telegram yesterday after noon stating that the Phoenix team would be here to play on Sunday, De- cember 8, which will open series of games, the first one to be played here, (which will lbe the first football game to be played in this city), and a return game ito be played in Phoenix on Christmas day.
 The home boys are very much in need of (what all others are)the almighty dollar and hope the Prescott people will encourage them in "a financial way to put their best foot forward to win back some of Prescott's lost laurels. | Tickets for the game will be for sale by members of the club and at the usual places for the sum of 50 cents the proceeds ito be used in defraying expenses of the visiting team. The game promises to be very hotly contested one, as in the home team there are several who have played be fore in college teams.

THE PECK MINE.
A Famous Bullion Producer Again at Work.

Prescott Courier: w. K. Riley, the machinist, has returned from the Peck mine, in the Bradshaw mountains, where he spent several days repairing boilers at that mine Mir Riley states that the water has all been pumped out of the Peck mine and that a force of 1o to 20 miners are at work there. Be tween s12,O0O and $15,000 has been ex- pended in putting the pumping plant in repair and clearing the works of water. A. Falso, the well known min ing man, is operating the mine under | bond and lease, and Mark Murphy, a thorough miner, is superintendent. They now have a continuous streak of ore exposed for 200 feet that shows a streak of ore from three to five inches thick which runs from S3,O00 to s5,0OO per ton in silver About S6,O00 worth of ore has lately been shipped, having i been stopped from near the surface. MT. Riley states that too much praise can not be given Superintendent Murphy 1 for his excellent management in plac- ing the mine on a paying basis, which the character of the work done every where a,ttests. The Peck mine has been filled with water and lain Idle for years, and it will be source of grati- tltude to now that this once famous mine
 is to again pour forth its millions.

Already a compromise Of some sort on the money question is being talked of. Knute Nelson, the new senator from Minnesota, thinks it will be set tied in that way. There is no occasion for any compromise. The Republicans have it in their power to settle the question right. They don't need to compromise with anybody. There is often no such travesty on right and jus tice as a compromise. Every silver law passed since 1873 has been com promise measure, and they have finally brought us to the single gold standard AS a result the silver question has been in politics twenty-two years, and 1t will continue ito be in politics if any thing less than it's free and unlimited coinage at the old ratio is submitted to If silver is not as good as gold, and needs restrictions and linn tations, ther we don't want it.
Arizona republican., 1895-12-06

If there is apparent apathy on the part of the people in some quarters re- garding the silver question the fact should not be regarded with too much satisfaction by the advocates of the gold standard. It does not indicate that they favor gold monometallism. It is more likely an indication that they have become disgusted fby con- promises and have concluded to let the money mongers have rope enough to hang themselves, figuratively, which they will certainly do if they are noi interfered with.

very neat little daily, newsy and up to date. Its only defect seems to be that two pages are printed in Spanish. In the salutatory the editor says: "The V1- dette greets it's patrons today as a full ledged daily, and hopes to give them real live paper every evening excpt Sunday The business of the Vldette has grown so much during the last year that we feel warranted in now issuing a daily. There is slight change in the personnel of the paper. Frost Hickman will have charge of the Eng fish portion of it's new columns, and 5.
 Montana will conduct the Spanish part. The Daily Vidette is purely a business proposition and will be devot- ed to the interests of Sonora and Ari- yona."
