newspaper comments on this part of the
message are bitter.
Several papers express satisfaction with
the message which. they saw. shows that
colonial expansion Is fraught with diff

that the American designs regarding the

FROM MEXICO.
Interesting Letter From a
 Former TOWBsman.

Col. c. s. Clark is in receipt of a
 letter from J. W. Van Horn, formerly
 of Tombstone, which is written from
 6uanalnsto, Mexico, under date oi
 March 6, 1898. The "RcsrFCTaR is
 permitted to publish the following ex-
 tract which will be found very inter
 esting:
 "Since writing you I have made 8 change. I held q good position in Zacatecas fer tive years, and left it of course te better my self and to get a change from the fumes of quicksilver and chemicals and the amslg.nation department in . quartz mill. l broke ground on March 2nd for a mill site for 6O-stams battery. l will assist in the construction, which will lake the remsind CT Cf ,Eis year rc ee, it run ming.
 "Guanajuato is one of Mexico's- greatest silver producing camps, if not the greatest. One mine alone has produced $l,SOO.OO0, GOO; beside. all the other mines have been in constant operation fer two or three hundred yssrs. The property thst the mill is going up on has been in constant operation fer eighty years. On the old hacienda where we are setting ths mill the Mexicsns have seventy aras- tras. all run bv mule power, and have produced m!llions, and now they claim . lifetime of ere in sight, 20 you may judge what the mines are lise This main working tunnel is 3,OOs feet and shaft 1000 iee'. The ore has become low grade, made SO by geuging out all the rich ore and leav- ing the lew grade stand. The old Mexican process, known &, the P.to process, is sure but slow, but they can net work lew grade ore; that is how the American company got a control ing interest ts put up this new mill.
 "I spent eight days in the City of Mexico after l left Zacstecas. You would be astonishsd to see the num- Der of Americans in that city. The main streets are more like the streets in some eastern city than 6 Mexican city"

Others have joined their party alse, and twenty in one band will start to- gether. Fischer states that Miss Cashman is determined to go, and s'sries of p. ivatioD, hardship and cold do not dsmpen her spirits.

F. E. Braley was exhibiting some excellent gold rock today from his
 min9 in tho Dragons near South Pass. Free gold can plainly be seen |, and es.sys taken show an average ct SlOS gold per ton. The ledge is from eight inches to one foot in width, and holds its value remarkably well. The shat is 5e fest dseF, and it is pro- posed to take out the ere and ship, some of the ore being sacked already. We are pleased to note this latt.ring in this section, which will tend to incits others to develop their properties alec and bring the South Pass vicinity into prominencs, ss there is no doubt but rich misss exis. there.
