Or the lrospcctur Sam Dav,s says in the Chslauquan: "ro the brave and rugged prosiector, with his cheap outfit of mining tools, his elupty stom ,ch aud hls hopeful heart is due the rapid devel- ment of the west. At the tap or his pick the doors of natures treasure vaults open; but their wealth is not for him. The stock sharks, the specula;ors and the promoters rob him of his inter- est, and tile snow is no sooner sinklng from the slopes of the foothills than the pooi fellow is vending his course into new territory. He appears in the rocky fastnesses of the mountains and, with no companions but Lis pick and frying pan, is lost to memory. Suddenly the news mes of another discovery and Il city rises like plar of flame in the wilderness. Lucky Bill has struck it rich,' ga ..bled away h.s pile and pushed on. The bones of hundreds oi the a,l- vance couriers of civilization blaze ,le path of progress in the west, or mo,ll,ler in forgotten graves, while in their wake are teeming cities they have founded and the ccaseless murmur of the money seeking multitude whose fortunes they have bullded."

wAILr exciting news are coming to us

WHILE exciting news are coming to us from the east we must not forget that we have duties to perform at home. Our city, this valley, the territory are on the eve of more rapid development, . yet greater era of prosperity. Our mining and stock interests never were better in the history of Arizona, and our agricultural interests, let us hone, are on the verge of development by general water storage on our rrea, streams throughout the territory that will bring large population and make Arizona the richest area of country of like size in the United States.-Herald.

CONGRESSIONAL Delegate. Ferguson

CONGRESSIONAL Delegate. Ferguson from New Mexico has introduced bill in'congress for opening all old Spanish and Mexican land grants in New Mex {. ico to prospectors for the precious met als and valuable minerals. Congress- ought to pass such law, for it is sin gular fact that while our American courts have almost or quite invariably held that such grants carry the metals and minerals with the land, Mexico has always held to the contrary. Mexico does not now nor never did grant min- erals, and it is doubtful if Spain ever did, for under that government mineral lands were always reserved as crown lands. No Spanish grant in Mexico carries the metals with it--it is only when thev happen to be on the United States side of the boundary line that they do 90. This ruling has superin- duoed more perjury and fraud than oil other facts pertaining to Spanish land grants in this country, f'om Fremont's Las Maril osas grant in California to tue great Peralta-Reavis fraud in New Mexico.

TnR various papers throughout the territory have commenced to o'put on their political war paint, aud beginning to select men suitable for the various county ofiicse. Politics has not yet be- gun to stir in Cochise county, but when they do our citizens should look out for the county division gang, for they are sure to bob up, as usual. Asa a part of the gang two years ago imposed on the cchtiding voters of the county, we should be on our guard. A word to the wise is sufficient.

FROM the present productions of cop per in Arizona the territory bids fair to lead all other geoprphical. divisions in her output this year. The high grade of our copper ana the fact that nearly all the copper producers carry gold or silver, or both, and some of them in sufficient quantities to pay for the cost of mining the ore and converting 1t into bullion, makes the Arizona copper fiekl preferable to that of any other state or territory.---Star.

Hrxpy BAru X sox, of London, sa,

HENRY BATH X SoN, of London, say that the scarcity of copper supplies and an increasing demand have had their natural effect. In addition to trade purchases there has been fair amount of speculative buying, which the posi- tioD of the article fully warrants. There seems little doubt that the scale of con sumption is not decreasing one, and although present prices allow of very handsome profits to the miners, their production, even with this stimulus, is not equal to the demand. Stocks are now at such 10 point that the trade is' practically dependent on weekly ar. rivals.

THE control of the president over the militia is absolute and unlimiled in time of necessity, and as he is the sole judge of that necessity there is prac- tically no limit upon hls discretion. In speaking of the militia, however. we
 refer to the national naltia and not to the National Guard. Most of the mem-
 bers of the National Guard are malitia- men, and as such are subject individu- ally to the orders of the president, is- sued in accoid dance with tlie,law, but the organizations of the guald are not recognized by the government as organi- cations. But once ln the service, militiamen, whether of the National Guard or not, become soldiers of the United States, and are as com pletely under the control of the military
 authorities as the soldiers of the regular army. The militia bill now before cong' ess expressly provides that mili- tiamen "shall serve wherever ordered, within or without the territory of the United States" This is not new law, but it is clear statement of existing law as defined by the courts. As the law is now the militia are subject to the jurisdiction of military law as soon as they are called into the service of the United States. It is not required that they should be mustered in to give'the military authorities of the United State control over t..em.-Army and Navy Journal.

MARX HANNA censures the American

MARX HANNA censures the American people, or rather those of them who are excited over the Maine disaster, for "talking war" He declares that mot one in 300 has dollar at stake" This seefns to be Mir. Hanna's only point Ot View oi this subject He appears to hold that an American citizen must bave dollars first and patriotism after ward. It would not do for the army officers who recruit the men to 70 to the front to follow this theory, however. Of the men who would protect Hanna's dollars in time of war, probably "not one in 500' would have ''dollar at stake" But they would have lives at stake.--Wheeling Register.
