ONE WHO KNOWS.
Fl, Talks of Local Freight Rates

PHOENIX, July IA, 1897. ED HERALD:-It is amusing to read she editorial on freight rates, Hog Wesh," in it's morning issue, of 8 paper with railroad collar on 1t, in this city. It runs 6s follows: "The freight rates
 'n barley per hundred pounds ss far
 aorth as Jerome from Phoenix is 20 cents. Surely this is not pFohibitive. ,"
 From California, (Los Angeles) to this
 point the barley rate Is 4O15 cents per
 100 pounds, freight. Let us zee the
 exact difference were we to have the
 same rate ss Los Angeles has on our
 barley, the miles considered. Its very
 sasy: Our barley rate per 100 pounds
 so Jerome would be just 625 cents per
 hundred pounds, freight, instead of 20
 tents. But they say she Interstate Commerce rate establishes She one and
 we, the people of Arizona, cannot con- trol it. Trus, but the people of Arizona ;sn con trol the local rates of Arizona and make this barley rate 62s cents per 100 just the moment that they elect aD honest l. Legislature, not one moment sooner.
 While passing our citizens attention
 called to the lumber rate from Will tisms, in ouP Territory, to Phoenix, amounting to about $9, freight, per 1000 feet. In fact it is brought from Puget Sound, over 200O miles, to Los Angeles, thence shipped via the South sFn Pacific railway to our city, while it is lying rotting almost at cur very doors
 Again, the paper with a railroad col lsF on 1t points out the fact that the peopIs up north are getting water melons from this valley. So they are, and they are paying 50 cents to $1 for m slons that cost to 10 cents here, and shs difference is mostly made up of | freight. Verify, must the people of the 1 north and of the Salt River Valley pray tor deliveFenos. RoREY.

IT each agree neDb Fesched by the conference should be announced there would be no peace for the mem bers Of the committee, owing to the objections of those who are interested.

 CHICAGO, July 16.-During the past few days the udges sit ting nths county court have been busily engaged in er- tering judgments and ordering sales or distrsints in the cases of citizens who are dslinqusns in theiR taxes on real es tate or personal property.

MORE prospecting is going on this summer in Arlzone shan ever before at any time of year. The mining world IS waking up to the fact that Arizona is 8 great and rich mineral region as yet practically undeveloped. Up to the present time there has been just enough mining done in coppez, silver and gold to demonstrate beyond 6 doubt the re- markable extent and richness of the Territory in these metals. The future will see millions of dollars worth of these metals taken from our mines where there are now hundreds of dol laEs taken out, and 1t will be found that scarcely B mountain range of the Territory but will be pierced by many valuable mines. Humhoib long ago with She practical eye of 8 eoient tiss de- soRibed Arizona as lend of grsat wealth in prescious minerals, and the practical developments of the mines of the Territory has demonstrated that his judgment was the result not of mere guesswork. And, so, today pros- pectoFs are leaving our towns deily equipped for the rough life of explora- sion it is necessary for them to lead, and each day more and more rational lines of prospecting are pursued. The old hit OF miss, ''guees it's good" style of locating mines no longer preveile,an capital no longer buys hole in the ground with it's eyes shut. Prospeo tors move now on scientific lines, and development of mines must be such as to demonstrase thdir real value before capital will put in dollar. But capital is liberal and when there is any good indication of mining property Is willing to take such property on bond and put in the money to determine whether there reeny Is property there worth the money, the time and tho pEepars lions that must attend the work of opening up of such properties for real and extensive working. Ib is an en- couFaging fact that where capital now takes hold, there Is very certainly good mining property; and it is taking hold quite frequently.
