Yuma Sentinel: Frank Vomicil has leased and bonded his group of silver lead claims in the Castle Dome min ing district to Wm. D. Luce. The consideration is a two years lease with a royalty Of twenty per cent, which applies to the purchase price of s20,0O0. Mir. Luce will take imme- diate charge and will work the prop erty on an extensive scale. The product of these mines is premium lead ore from which white lead is made. The ore is shipped to San Francisco at a net profit of S5U per ton and there is an immense quantity of it in sight.
 Globe Times: W. L. Myers of the Old Dominion shelter, says D. E Saunders will soon return from Bos- ton and commence operations on the Reward copper mine south of Casa Grande. The Reward ore carries good values in gold. This mine is one of the old claims that has received att tentlon for the last fifteen years, There is a smelter on the mine but it is not supposed to have been very profitable in the output. The new management contemplates 800 feet of work The main shaft is down lS0 feet with drift 300 feet and at this point winze is sunk 250 feet. There are other workings but the above are are the principal developments.

 Jerome News: The machinery for the Jerome Mining Co. has arrived and is being placed in position as fast as possible. It is the intention of Superintendent Dillon to push devel- opment and make the groupa dividend payer.
 Jerome News: There are rumorss that the famous Equator law suit is almost certain to be settled, and that development work will be commenced at once. During the last ten years such rumors have been of monthly oc- curence, but never before have they appeared to be so we'll founded.
 Graham Guardian: pr. J.. M. Ford and T. E. Parish of Phoenix, and T. R. Thorn of Kansas City, were in the city the fore part of this week. a meet MT. Day with view of inves- tigating some of the mines in his vicinity. They left on Tuesday for home, but before going investigated the Lone Star mine with vlew of purchasing.
 Globe Times: It is reported that the final payment has been made On the Diamond H group of gold mines at Lost Gulch and that J. A. Fleming is now the owner of that property. A force of men are at work sinking the double compartment shaft on that property from 100 to 200 feet and " hen completed ore will be taken out.
 Prospector: It is understood an ex- pert representing a Philadelphia syn dicate is Investigating the merits of the Moor mine at Pearce with a probability of bonding same at a good figure. This property is valuable one adjoining the famous Common wealth and is owned by Messrs. Wm. Monmonier, Chas. Granville Johnson and J. V. Vickers.
 Prespector: Supt. Blackburn of the Copper King Co.,, came in from the Barrett group of the company mines yesterday. He brought with him some rich samples of copper ore showing native copper in plenty and sprinkled throughout all pieces of the samples The development of this group is ex- ceeding all expectations and the sam- ples he brought to Tombstone are ad- mired by all who see them.
 Globe Times: MT. Chase, engineer of construction, reports that the rail road will not be able to deliver the coke at the Old Dominion smelter for twenty days, and possibly an equal number of days before che United Globe will be getting her coke direct from the cars. Wagons are now haul ing the coke through town from the depot, distance of about a mile to the Old Dominion and half mile further to the United Globe.
 Prospector: Arizona continues to stand fifth in the line of gold produ- cing states and territories. We are only excelled in this line by Califor- mia, Colorado, Montana and South Dakota The time is not far away when this territory will stand at the head of the line. A rather surprising thing, considering the amount of booming that has been done, is that Arizona has produced fifty per cent more gold iu the past year that Alas ka, and yet Arizona has gone about it in quiet business-like way without a particle Of excitement and no misre- presentation of any kind; without a

K another column We publish tha account of a joint meeting of the camDerS of commerce. Of Juneau aud Skaguay, at which it was decided to hold a cOnVen- ton at Juneau on Oct. 9th, of representatives from all parts of Alaska, for the purpose of talk ing action relative to placing before Congress, in proper form, the needs of Alaska. This is d step in the right direction, and it should receive the hearty sup port of the Nrangel Chamber of Commerce, and of our citizens generally There remains no doubt but what Alaska is the poorest governed of any of Uncle Sans possessions. and if the citizens of this great District will lay aside all petty jealousies which have from time to time sprung up between the different localities, and work unitedly for the general good of the entire Alaska, wonderful results will follow There is no doubt but what Congress as body, knows less about Alaska than about .'iT subject upon which they are rtIla l , rgjslate: and ii is only t'v sending a representative body of citizens to Washington that our conditions ant necessit- ias will become known Let Wrangel put her shoulder to tie wheel and help alon" the good work.

ONE of the industries of .Ala@ lla which is in it's infancy iS 'Hs fish industry. The general peD- lie knows little bout lh;S @rcat question except that there are numerous cannerirs iu Alaska and that they are doing a large and profitable business. They do not know that there are mil lions of fish wasted every year and that a small amount of cap ital invested would bring a very
 large return The great trouble l:5 there are too many fish. It is estimated that on Prince of Wales Island alone not one quar. ter the salmon are taken which might be taken without jeo- pardizing the continuance of 1he supply. There have been numerous cases this year where salmon in the streams have been so thick as to crowd each other out of the water and cause a small dam in the stream. There are cases where the canneries have been unable to handle the fish offered; and in such cases the entire fish is wasted or t'la

Oi the grand Jury SltllnS at Jun eau, by W. T. Harris, U. $. Edu- cational agent, published some tune ago in the Seattle Post h. telliSencer, and copied by at least one Gf the Alaskan news papers, bears the earmarks of a criticism of one who has look ed at the fact, at $ long ranHe. It is very doubtful if surh aa article could have been written by one who is personally ac Quainted with the conditions as they exist in AlaSllS We sup pose that there is no plaee where the American flag floats, where there there is such d large az gregation of white children totai- lv unprovidea with school prl&'i- leweS, as we find here. in the States. where there are as small an aWUregatiOn aS from ten 10 fifteen scholars, il .S considered the duty of the authorities to provide school advantages for them. but here, how different. can it not saftly bn said, that there is not a point in Alaska where the people are ade. quately provided with such ad- Vantages. Not only are the whites suffering. but the indians are sutferil 2 as welt. The sal aries of the teachers have been reduced, and of course, d lOWer Salar, means that the teacher cannot equip himself or herself forthe work. It can not be claim ed that even the indians are re= celving the attention that they ought to receive. In fact, every
 thing seems to be just what it ought,not to be. W hat is the cause of this deplorable condi- tion? and what is the remedy: But. before we try to discover the cause. and the remedy, let Us look at one of the points that has been raised by Supt. Harris's $ letter in defence of Dr. Jackson. He seems to claim thal the white settlers are supposed to look out for themselves, while the indians are wards of the government, dnd are therefore provided with schools. could there be a more audacious proposition set forth than this? Does it not startle one with it's very audacity: Let the miner the logger. the clerk. the man oi small means generally, hustle for himself if he wants his children to receive even the ruuimentS of an Eng fish education. More than this, l ct the business man pay the heavy taxes that he is compelled 10 pay, lpart of which should go fo the support of a schooD and receive nothing in return except l,olat,'JiN police protection, and ne:il lriNiln. es. The whites are paying tax <. and they want SourthiH@ il return for their taxes. Any one who would deny them this, would argue that it is right for the cel tral government to tax as it we're the outlying provinces, for the benefits of it. self only. We are sure that Supt Harris would shrink from such a statement as this: but it is never the point t"Which his logic leads him.
 Now what is the cause of the prefent coalitions: In saying
