50 MILESTO ORC BLANCO Where % Miles of a Long Hard Trip Could be Saved. Gen. Allen Suggests a Road Through the Sierritas and Other Short
 Cuts.

There has been some talk in Tucsol
 of a shorter road to Arivaca. Wha Tucson needs worse is shorter road tt | Gro Blanco. Or the worth of Orr
 Blanco to Tucson let no Tucsonite b' deceived. Gro Blanco is a district O
 great and genuine merit. They have
 good mines there, and while it happens 1 that at the present moment no mill:
 there are running, yet all are only laid
 up temporarily, and will soon be send 1 ing their quotas of bullion to the world again, The Orc Banco district, after the next rainy season, should be good for sl0,000 to S20,000 8 month. The numerous mills there and their prospects the CITIZEN has already related. Gen. J. B. Allen is an old man, but has lost none of his enterprise in his old age. He is now in charge of the store at the Montana mill, and is waiting as patiently as be can for rain to come and fill up George Cheyney's big dam, SO that the mill may start up again. The Gen. furnishes the following figures as to a shorter road to Gro Banco.
 He began by saying that the present road is too long by far-being now about 75 miles distant from Tucson. The Gro Blanco people, he declares, are none too frieI diy to Tucson, owing to the rejection by the board of supervisors two or three years ago to grant them shorter cut from Gro Blanco to the Chihuahua ranch, ihIs saving ten miles or such matter. The road to Nogalee is far from 0 good one, still 1t cen be traveled, and is, to some extent. With a buggy one may drive from Gro Blanco to NogaIes, starting at 10 in the morn- ing, and reach there by night. The good will of the Gro Blanco people to- ward Tucson he believes would be secur- ed by his shorter road.
 Gen. Aliens figures are as follows:
 Tucson tC Dive Camp P miles.
 Olive to the Sierritas, s miles.
 Through the Sierritas to Tenela, milee
 TeDaia to the Chihuahua ranch, s miles.
 Chihuahua ranch to Gro Blonco, s miles.
 There is a distance of fifty miles be- tween Tucson and Gro BlancO, against seventy-five miles at present.
 Not great desl of road building Is required to accomplish this. The road to Olive Camp IS good enough as 1t IS. From there to the noun .eins the road IS also first rate The real road building would be through the SierrItae to Tensjs, and from Tenaja through to Chihuahua. Part of the present road, some three miles or so, could be utilized just this side of Chihuahua's. From Ohihuahua's through to Olive IS elght miles. This is the road asked of the board of supervisors several years ago. It is an old trail, badly washed out ID places. It could be rebuilt cheaply. MT. Chihuahua offers to make good road of it for S200 He also offers moderate figures on the other road building.
 With the making of nine miles of road and the repair of eight more Tucson would make short route and practlc- able to the Orc Blanco country. Grades could be made, and should, light enough for heavy loads, and curves should also be made round enough for 16mule teams.
 Gen. Aliens suggestion is one worthy of needing.

ACCORDING to a late letter story IS now being repeated around Washington to the effect that three political and per sonal friends of Mir. Cleveland, one of them a member of the cabinet, were smoking their after dinner cigars in room in the White House, discussing the political outlook, When one of them .said: Speak ng of political predic- tions, reminds me to make oie myself. The next pres dertial campaign will see two democratic parties in the field. One of them, the first to nominate ticket, will have frt silver man for it's caudi- date and a big, broad silver plank for him to run op. The other will be a democratic party of smaller dimensions. H. will stand for gold alone. Its cardi- date for president will be an out and out gold man-will be called "gold bug" or possibly ''gold elephant" by his op ponents--sud the financial plank fl the platform upon which his campaign will be made will advocate the gold standard without any it'e, and's or but's. This party will not expect to win; 1t will merely make the campaign for principle. Now for the other side. The republican party will have for Its candidate 8 man who is friendly to silver without being an enemy to gold, and its platform will r. feet his views and he will win.' Whsn asked to complete the prediction by naming the three candidates the gen. tIeman said: "The identity of the free silver man and the man who IS friendly to silver is purely speculative at this time. But the choice of the gold wing of the democracy is foregone ccnclus- ion; it will be Grover Cleveland" Un- less all signs fail two of this would be prophets pred ictions promise to become facts-the election of the republican candidate and the nomination of Mir Clev eland on 8 gold platform.

THE department of agriculture reports a loss to farmers of s192,OO0, 900 in the value of their horses during 1894. Dur ing tbat same year we imported foreign horses worth more than s1,0O0,OOO.

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE

The various county newspapers have
 had much to say lsudatory of their seV-
 eral representatives and the good work
 accom- plished through them for their respective constituencies. To this al- most invariable rule there has been one
 notable exception, and that oddly
 enough is good old Pima. MT. Chen eweth, it is true, was effuslvely receiYeo
 by the press and people of NoRales be- cause of his efforts in behalf or county division, but of Assemblymen James Finley, M. G. Samaniego, N. w. Der nard and Councilman Jos. B. Scott, the records have been silent, while others less deserving have been honored by public and private recognition. The cause of this silence m regard to our representatives has been through no shortcoming of the gentlemen them selves, but rather through the fault or the newspapers who should give honor t. whom horor is due. Politically We opposed their election and on party is- sues We would be found still opposing them, but this does not deter us from commenting them for we'll doing. That they did do we'll is conceded by all; that they were hampered by peculiarly em- barrassiDg circumstances must llkewlse be acknowledged, but notwithstanding this they bore the flag of good old Pima ia honor through the fight.
 Even before the organization of the legislative branches they were confront> ed by a scheme which threatened the disnemberment of the county so formid- able that nothing but the shrewdest and boldest counter moves were able to defeat it. To counteract one combina- ton another, 8 stronger, was pltted against it and the weaker went to the wall.
 Three things were early decided upon, one of which was that there should be ne diruption of counties, no peddling out of public buildings and no switch ing around of judicisl districts. On other issues they followed the bent of their inclinatIons and voted for or against measures that met their approv- al or disapproval. This fact is appar- ent through the entire session.
 Questions may have arisen and prob ably did arise, ID which we would have voted and acted differently, but this does not detrsct from the honors they won nor belittle the good they accom- plished, for we believe that in all meas ures affecting the public veal they did that which they believed was for the best.
 They were stalwarte, every one, and there was not small souled nan among them, and they returned to their constituency with a consciousness ot having done right as they saw the right, and, however much we may disagree with them on party issues, or dissent from their ideas on question of pubic import, We are compelled to respect them for it. They are, without exceptions, men of strong Individuality and honesty of purpose. Inasmucb as if was ordained that Pima y should be represented in the territorial councils by democrats, they were well and wisely chosen, for that party does not contain better men on its rolls. They were the sayiours of the integrity of Pima coun- ty, and as such deserve we'll in the opin- lons of the people whom they were sent to and did represent.

Dead on the Desert.

On his return from Mesa City last Saturday, Simon Bsuerle determined to make further search for human bones in the neighborhood of those discovered by him on the previous Monday, and was rewarded by finding the skull and a number of other bones. It now seems to be settled beyond peradventure that | they were the remains of James Crutch- | field, a man more than 70 years of age, who passed through Florence last June on his way to Phoenix. He had with him three mares a colt and a burro. Two mares and the colt came back the next day and the burro the following day with pack. A party of four men, headed by Richard Foreman, took the the trail and followed it to the vicinity of the place where the bones were found, and there lost 1t. Crutchteld's dog was found dead and a lock of human hair hanging to s mesquite bush but nOtbing was seen of the mare he was riding or of the poor old man. For nearly a year his bones have been bleacning on the sands of the desert, sfter having been knawed and scattered Oy co Jtes. Evidently while suffering from delIrium caused by thirst, he had turn out his hair by it's roots. His dog faithful to the last, remained with him and died with him, but the other api- msls returned to water Crutchfield was a cousin and brother-in law of Ralph Dillon, one of the proprietors of Prescott Courier.
 The remains were discovered near the lower road, four miles this side of Syl- vester's we'll, and about 2 miles from Florence, only about 200 yards south of the MarIcops county line.
 LATER.
 Simon Baue-le and Chss. CesliDger, on Wednesday last, went to the place where the bones were found, dug a grave and decently buried all that re- mained of James Crutchfield. They carefully searched the surrounding country asd gathered t.gether nearly the entire skeleton. In the neigh bor- hood were also found two small pocket knives, five 44-cartridges, small pad lock. 8 spool of thread, comb and a l piece of shirt. The grave was made l near a dim road leading to Ruckel- l hausen's mine, about 200 yerds from the I main rosd, and was plainly marked by | posts at the head and foot. Tribune.
