The New Railroad.
fFrom the Los Angeles Times.]


 A second survey is now said to De contemplated for the new santa re branch to connect with Globe from Deming, N. NJ. Instead of gong through the beautiful and fertile una valley other considerations in the shane of the mining output at Morenci nav be rursued. This latest proposl- ion ia said to be line with Morenci as the first objective point, thence across Bonita Creek and down Ash Creek Flat to the San Carlos river. This would be short cut, but the route has two objections, Morenci camp IS now under the management of the Copper Queen company, of Bisbee. Now while the Queen company and the Santa Fe management are excellent people, they have not agreed well. In fact, to avoid dealing with the Santa Fe the Copper Queen company once built railroad of their own Seventeen miles long. Therefore, with the Ari- zona and New Mexico road already practically giving Morenei connection, the Santa Fe may possibly get the cold shoulder some more from the Queen management. The other reason against tile new line is that it will lose whole lot of valuable business in stay ing out of the valley.

Runaways Galore.
lFron the Tempe News.l

ErCn the leiHpe NeWs-l
 Sixth street was yesterday after noon the scene of a series of exciting runaways. The whole trouble was caused by Chinese vegetable pedler leaving his team standing in the road united, while lie was paying friendly visit to Sam Kee. Something fright ened the horses and they started to- ward East Tempe on dead run, seat tering garden truck in every direction. They had not gone far before they met Mexican bringing a four-horse load of wheat to the warehouse. The leaders became frightened and turning around short snapped of the wagon tongue, which dangling at their heels, they started down street in the wake of the vegetable wagon, leaving the poor Mexican seated on his load of wheat calling down the vengeance of all his saints upon the head of the Chinaman who was passing, in pur- suit of his horses. The trouble, how ever, was not over by any means. Manuel Mason, driving Dr. Hearts horse, met the runaways and before he could realize what was taking place, his horse had twisted the shafts from the buggy and had joined the rest in a mad race toward Mesa. All the horses were subsequently, recovered.

FINAL county has in Hon. M. R. Moore, of Arizola, citizen of whom it should be proud. He is an able man yet modest and unassuming, and as honest as the day is long. More than that, he bears honorable scars won in defense of his country, which unfit him for active manual labor. The TRIBUNE takes the liberty of suggesting his name to Governor McCord for Auditor or some equally good position. This is done without Mr. Moore's consent, as it is understood he makes no applica- tion; hence it would be all the more a graceful act on the part of the Governor to tender it.

oNe of the great secrets of success in business is to patronize people who patronize you, and to keep your money in circulation at home. Don't send away for articles you can procure at home even if they do cost triae more, for money spent at home is liable to come back to you. It is the constant drain of money from a community that keeps it poor.

ADOLF GoLDscHMIDT of the Eagle mills, Tucson, has been in this valley for several days, and has purchased sixteen thousand sacks of wheat from our farmers, besides three or four thou sand sacks of barley. Of this, some twelve thousand sacks were Austra- lian wheat, which Mir. Goldschmidt pro- nounces the best grain he has ever seen grown in Arizona. The average yield has been over 1900 pounds or 30 bushels to the acre. The Eagle mills alone win disburse over s25,oOo among the farmers of the Casa Grande valley. This shows that the tillers of tine soil have very little to complain of this year.

The Mammoth.
[From the Tucson Star

NJ. P. Freeman, agent of the Nam moth Company, has received cable in- structions from the company in Lon don to begin the work of putting the shaft on the mines in working eondi- tion. This means the enlarging of this shaft, which is now down to the 500 foot level, from single to a double compartment, and while no iuforma- tion other than the cable to begin this work has been received, Mir. Freeman has every reason to believe this means the early resumption of work on a large scale and the building of reduc- tion works at the mines according to the plans upon which the company has been at work for so long time.
 Mir. Freeman expects early mail ad- vices with full information, and in the meantime has given instructions to Andy Collins, who is in charge of the operations at the mines, to begin this work on the shaft at once.
