MINING NEWS
MINING IN COCHISE.
Increasing Demand For Mines in the
 Tombstone Section

There is a noticeable improvement hereabouts in a mining way-more in- quiry for mining property than we have enjoyed for a number of years. Hardly week passes but what min ing men as representatives of capital ists arrive, who are attracted by the practically undeveloped condition Of our mountain ranges and their well known mineral richnes. Now that the Klondyke craze is a thing of the past and the war excitement over, people will again turn their attention to the more regular channels, and mining, which has suffered to some consider able extent, is sure to revive. In fact a renewed impetus is observed in the industry throughout the west, and IL is evident that this section is going to share in it. One thing. however. should be done, and that is to make our mineral resources more broadly known. A good mineralogical display should be maintained at the various money centers where there are many people who are interested in mining. The benefits to be derived would be ircalculable-Tomb PrOspector.

TOLD BY A WAR
 CORRESPONDENT.

Souvenir gathering did not engage the attention of those in the army to any great extent until after Santiago surrendered; then everybody went af- ter curios and other remembrances of the campaign. The first and most de- sired were machetes. Everybody, pri- vate, officer and camp follower wanted machete. Buttons from the blouses of Spanish soldiers, cockades from their hats, empty Mauser shells, fragments of artillery shells, Panama hats, Span ish coins, Spanish decorations, medals and insignia of rank in the Spanish army were things eagerly and clamor- ously and sometimes undignifiedly sought.
 Within five days after the surrender everybody had symptoms of souvenir insanity. Almost every soldier and many Of the Officers were carrying nachetes, wearing Panama hats and filling their pockets with trinkets.
 Some one has said that nothing ia sacred in the eyes of the souvenir seek CT. I thought this was true when saw soldiers bartering for the machetes which their Spanish owners were cling ing to with evidences of affection! Blu; the Spaniard needed money. and his machete was about all he had left that he could exchange for it.

JUSTICE FOR KLONDYKERS.

The prospector and miners who have 90 bitterly complained of the unjust re- strictions placed upon them in the Klondyke country, evidently have nothing of a more cheerful nature to look forward to in the near future, that is if the newly appointed Yukon conl- missioner, William Ogilive is correct ly quoted. In a recent speech in Van ccuver, this gentleman, after stating that s.he would do justice to all men IT, respective of their country, religion or politics. he said one Of the chief fea- lures of his policy would be to nus band the timber of the Klondyke. Americans would be permitted no longer to cut it on British soil and float it down the river" After dwelling on the fact that Americans had been granted too much license during the past year, Ogilvie wound up his re- marks on the subject by saying: What we have we will keep" Ger tainly such stand is very narrow, considering the fact that in all proba- biiity it would have taken several cen turies to have opened tip the country had net the venturesome Yankee hap penad along that way.
