 The Mexicans who have a lease on the African mine at White Hills, have opened up splendid body of ore and have four or five tons ready for shipment to the sampler. The ore will run over one thousand ounces silver to the ton.
 Prescott Courier: James Hanger is in from Minnehaha Flat, at which place he is arastraiDg ore from his claim with a result of forty dollars per ton gold. In cross-cutting the ledge has exposed four feet of ore and is still working on ore.
 Florence Tribune: A strike was re- eently made in the Rescue silver mine in Glla county, of which twenty inches of rock which carries 800 ounces of white metal to the ton The vein, which has been stripped sixty feet is increasing in width and the ore is growing richer.
 Prescott Courier. Fred Williams Is in from Storm Cloud mining group, which is now being developed and prospected by W. G. Cress, of Chi capo, who has in operation on the ground a Tresman steam stamp mill of ten tons per day capacity. This mill is being used as prospecting mill and will be replaced by a larger one when conditions justify.
 Graham Bulletin: J. J. Bull, of Pima, was here Monday night, en route to Coal Fields, where he has valuable copper properties. MT. Bull says one of his mines the lLongfel- lowl is marvelously rich. At depth of five feet the vein is four feet wide and runs 52 per cent copper and ten dollars gold The vein was two feet wide on the surface and carried 40 DOT cent copper.
 Prescott Courier: Returns from a shipment of the Groom Creek mine concentrates give sl5lS.47 net on ls.9I2 lbs. of concentrates. These concentrates come from the same lot of ore which yielded by mill run 22 lbs. of gold bullion. These are the kind of mining items which count, actual results which can be verified by any who cares to do so. gu
 Wilcox News: Table Mountain Copper Company, under the super intendency of MT. Thomas Withers this company is constructing nine miles of wagon road to it's mining property, situated about 70 miles north of Wilcox. A large force of men has been put at work and the machinery for lOO ton stamp mill and a copper smelter of the same capacity has been contracted for, which plants will be erected as soon as possible.
 Mohaye Miner ". w. Clack, who has been using cane since his last injury at the Orc Plata mine, threw the stick away as useless incum- oance when he got his return from the last shipment of ore last night. The ore ran almost eight ounces in gold to the ton and he had twenty-one tons. If a poor news paper editor had few hundred tons 1F +bo+ .Inaa of oya ba nou1d afford tO

ten tons of ore on the dump. This ore will be shipped and If the returns are satisfactory, 1t is said, that the mine will be actively operated again. The Red Rover was at one time classed among the best mines in the territory.
 Mohaye Miner: A. l.. and Grant McKesson are sinking on a mining claim nine miles east of White Hills. At a depth of two ohundred feet the ledge was crosscut and showed the vein to be twenty-five feet be- tween the walls. The average of the ore taken from the crosscut was ten dollars to the ton. Messrs McKesson expect to strike water in the shaft before, the three hundred level Is reached.
 Mohaye Miner: Charles Gracey of Fl Dorado Canon, left on the Flyer last Tuesday night for the east to purchase big reduction plant to place on the mines of the South western Mining Company. The mines have recently developed ore bodies that rival the Comstock and the mill now in use is inadequate to handle the constantly increasing output. MT. Gracey is making a great success of the company prop critics.
 Graman Bulletin: Frank Cox, at torney for the Southern Pacific rail- road in this territory, arrived in Solomonyille Monday morning and, accompanied by District Clerk Frank Dysart, they drove direct to the coal camp above Solomonville. MT. Cox came here to have filing made on the ground now occupied by Mr. Reynolds and his corps of engineers as coal claim. MT. Reynolds made the filing, which was for l60 acres, and Mir. Cox left with the papers for Tucson the same evening. This was done to avoid any trouble which might arise if the same ground was filed on by some one as homestead.
 Prescott Courier; MT. Pritchard, of the Pacific Mining X Smelling Com pany, has submitted another proposi- tion, which, the reporter is informed, is in effect that the Prescott people give the shelter people a bonus of SIC, ,000 the money to be paid weekly at the rate of s2.56 for every ton of ore treated by the company, the com pany to own and operate the plant. After talking with a number of our citizens tine Courier believes that SIG. GOO or more could be readily raised if the company would be satisfied to take S1 for each ton treated. We be- lieye that the smelters have been put up elsewhere on this sl per ton basis. However, the Mining Exchange con- msttee having this matter in hand will attend to this business.
 Mesa Free Press: The only native copper discovered in southern Arizona comes from the Buster mine, in Bradford mountains. The native copper is taken from the ground in solid nuggets and leaflike sheets, the latter from four to six inches wide, from six to fourteen inches in length and from the thickness of knife blade to one-quarter of an inch. These leaflike layers run in veins through seams in the ore, which is more in the nature of a deposit than a vein, aud crops up on top of the mountain.

In view of the many attacks on
wills because of the alleged incom.
pacity of the persons making them, a
Connecticut legislator proposes a law
to the effect that every individual
who makes a will may deposit it with
legal officer who shall give public
notice that will has been offered
az. chat all who wish to question the
testator's capacity shall have a Ger.
tain time in which to do so; and il
no objection is made, then the will
shall not be subject to attack on that
ground after death. The passage Of
such law 10 all of the states would
materially reduce the number of will
contests, and promote the distribution
of property according to the real de.
sires of testatOTs, besides lessening the
fees of lawyers who now often gel
large shares Of estates through con.
troversies of that kind.

l HAVE discovered that the farmer
always gets better prices when a lot
Of buyers are bunting him up rather
than when he is hunting up buyers.
WILLIAM MCKINLEY.
The farmer has discovered this too,
now. He has discovered, also, that
under free.trade be may hunt and
hunt for buyers and yet find none.
He has realized in very practical
way that his prosperity depends en-.
tirely on his home market, and that
his home market depends on the EN-.
ployment of the wage earners, which
is secured by protective tariff. It
was very pleasant to listen to the
free'traders when they told him that
under free-trade he would supply the
world with agricultural products. 1t
has not been SO pleasant to end that
the world did not want his products,
and that those who had been his Gus.
TONERS at home, being without work
and without money because of free
trade, were no longer able to buy
from him. But this is what he found
out under partial free-trade. "There's
guide time coming" though.

The Presidents "Chnngc of Heart"

Who, looking forward, would have
believed that the Wilson GormAr
law in the last days of its existence
would find its one friend in the mar
who a little over three years age
called it bill Of 'per6dy and dis
honor" The stamp of Mr.. Cleve
lands approval, however, came lit.
tie late. The time for that, if it wa,
TO be given at all, was when the bill
was before him, not as yet law, but
waiting for him, as President, to per.
form the duty of his office and either
to sign or veto the bill-a duty which
he shirked. If Mr.. Cleveland's
"chauge of heart" had come at that
time instead of now, it would have
conduced more to that reputation for
courage for which be yea rms with a
mighty but unsatisfactory yearning
and it would not have reflected quite
so seriously on his claim to ordinary
business sense. At that time the
evils of the bill lay in large measure
in the future and man epslaved by
a theory might close his eyes to
them. But to day the evils of that
law are in the past and the present
The industrial depression aud distress
have been such that no man could
shut his eyes to them. The deficit in
the Treasury is fact which no man
can deny and which President Cleve.
land himself has been obliged to pub.
lic!y acknowledge by his issues o.
bonds, however he may quibble about
the 'endless chain" with his endless
sophistries. Aud yet this industry
destroying, deficit producing bill Mr.
Cleveland thinks is a pretty good bill
after all. Fortunately for the coun.
try the great majority of the people
do not agree with him.-America,

FIRE At BREWER.
Deans Stable and Other Buildings Destroyed
loss About $4,000.

Bangor, Me-, Dec. 1.-The vigorous
ringing of the fire bells in Brewer at
about 2.3O O'clock, Wednesday morn

known and never will be- Mr.. Dean
and his hOstler, Wesley Bennett, were
asleep in the office of the stable, having
finished their work of attending to or
ders late at night. Mr.. Dean was
awakened by the cracking of the
flames over his head and was the first
to discover the fire. He aroused Mr..
Bennett and they escaped through a
window in the office and it was a close
call for the men as if it had been a lit
tie later when they We're aroused they
would have perished in the flames.
The horses were saved but only four
blackboard harnesses. The carriages de-
stroyed numbered 13 and two fine buck
boards, one of 10 and the other of six
passengers capacity.
The fire spread so rapidly that there
was no possible show for saving the sta

A BIG COAL COMBINE.
Pennsylvania Operators Plan a Gigantic Com.
pany With SIT ZOO, 900 Capital

Pittsburg. Pa. Dec. 1.-The biggest
combination of river coal interests ever
attempted. promises to be effected before
the new year 1t has been talked of for
years. but has at last come to a focus.
A committee. consisting of Captain w.
w. O'Neil. president of the w. w. O'Neil
Coal Co. and of the Pittsburg Coal Ex-
change. Captain S. s. Brown of w. H.
Browns Sons. and Captain John A. Wood
of the firm of John A. Wood & Son, is
hard at work considering the schedules
of property values as presented by the
separate coal companies operating on the
river.
There is a slight dissenson in the ranks
but it is not considered to be sufficient to
block the way of speedy consolidation.
The scheme. which is stupendous in ma
ture. proposes the organization of one
company with a capital of $l10OO.0OO. 1t
is to be a huge trust. controlling the
river coal interests from Lock No. 5. on
the Monongahela river. to New Orleans.
The primary object of the combination
is to reduce expenses in both mining and
shipping. The Pittsburg operators hope
by this means to successfully compete
with the Kanawha river product. 1t is
claimed that it is but to reap the reward
that will be gained in the reduction of
operating expenses. The elimination of
the cutting done by Pittsburg shippers is
also expected to contribute to the divi-

THE EsTERHAzY LETTERS.
Their Authenticity With One Exception Is Ad
mitted by the "NobIe" Count.

Paris, Dec. 1.-Major Count Ferdi-
nand Walsin Esterhazy, the retired
French army officer, who is charged
with having written the letter which
led to the Imprisonment on Devils
Island of Alfred Dreyfus, the former
captain of French artillery. is said, to-
day, to have acknowledged the authen
ticity of the letters recently published
by the Figaro, with the exception of
the one in which the count is said to
ment:
IF, tonight. 1 We're to know that I
should be killed tomorrow as a cap
tain of Uhlans while sabring French
men, l should be perfectly happy. /
would not harm dog, but I would see
a hundred thousand Frenchmen killed
with pleasure"
1t is understood that the report Of
General Pollieux, who was appointed
General Saussier. to investigate the
charges brought against Count Ester
hazy. states that he, the general. is
satisfied of the guilt of Dreyfus. But
there is general Indignation here at
General PollieuX's statement that he
has not inquired into the possibility OF
having written the men,
orandum upon which Dreyfus was con-
victed, which is one of the charges
brought against the court, the general
simply remarking that he considers
that the court martial definitely set
tied that point.
