Mining Notes.
I. T. WHITTEMoRE,


 Ed. Bouviolle and Augustin Elias are working very promising silver lead property at Mineral Hill. The vein is from two to four feet wide, and the ore is being concentrated in jigs at the old rock house. From there it will be sacked and shipped. They have seven men employed.
 L. s. Powell and Chas. Orton are working on the extention of the above named property. At depth of forty feet they are cross-cutting the ledge and have a fine showing.
 Messrs. Geo. B. Chittenden, A. NJ. Harrison and N. II. Mellor were at the Saddle Mountain district, near Dudley vile, this week, examining some prop erty belonging to the latter. They don't say much about it, but have a wise look.
 N. H. Mellor is down forty feet on his Zona Cobre claim, above the Buttes, with little change in the value of tAe ore, which is breccia, filled in with copper. At present it is low grade, but MT. Mellor has great confidence in the property, which he proposes to still further develop.

WASHINGTON. p. C.. Eel. 23

WASHINGTON, P. C., Feb. g.
 EDITeE TRIBUNE: I have just re- ceived the last number of the TRI- BUNE--glad to getit. I arrived here last Saturday night at II :55, struck by a blizzard in Chicago, came thence by B. and O., and found the capital city not much warmer and sheeted with snow. Boys were riding toboggans Monday, double-headers, one at each end of a 10 or l2-foot plank, and sleighs were running, as well as electromotors and all classes of vehi- eles.
 Monday at g a. m. Ireported at head quarters of the Geological Survey and took orders from Chief Newell and spent the afternoon in reading and marking with blue pencil the princi- pal points to be noted by Senators in J. B. Lippincott's report on irrigation.
 Tuesday l was in the Senate lobby making efforts to get the ear of some of the principal men. Wednesday at 1t again, but as before, many were absent. Next in the lobby of the House and called out Col. J. F. Wilson and had pleasant interview.
 Yesterday was Washington's birth day and but little could be done, except plan for further work. To-day went for the subcommittee on Indian ap- propriations, and after calling at Mir. Newell's office started for the Cairo to see Chairman Thurston, but learned that he was out of town, and called at the Arlington to see Senator Platt, and he was not in. But this afternoon in the Senate lobby my card brought him. We met in the marble room and we had tussle.
 "Yes, you are after an appropriation of over $2,OOO,OOO, are you?p inquired the Senator.
 You are mistaken, sir Here is Mir. Lippincott's report, which wish you " AOsS SoA VAuAAJy CoPCSAaily eiAo ulic pencil paragraphs. It calls for but little over l,O00,O0o."
 "Well, you are speaking one word for the Indians and two for settlers in that valley"
 My dear sir, have lived over eleven years beside those Indians, and make an honest plea for them, as many of them are near the starvation point Is is not business proposition to furnish them water-storage and put them on their feet to earn their owa support rather than for Government to spend tens of thousands of dollars annually to feed them in idleness 2"
 Such is the substance of the discus sion, when left with him copy of the report for examination. Others will be tackled tomorrow, and thus the fight for right and justice goes on.
 Truly yours,
 l. T. WHITTEMoRE.

Dr. Ford, of Phoenix, h as given the TRIBUNE some very important in forma- tion regarding railroad building in Arizona. A company has been recently formed in the East with capital of $15, ,00O, 900, which proposes to build a line from Phoenix to Port Yssbel, on the Gulf of California, a distance of 1855 miles, also line from Phoenix to Flor snce and the Deer Creek coal fields, in the eastern end of this county. Such a road would do an immense business and would be paying proposition at once, securing as it would the trade of this section, as we'll as that of Mann moth and Mineral Creek, all of which would have direct connection with tide water ct the nearest point. This is a railroad proposition that has great merit, and stranger things have hap pened than it's building.

Death of Col. Lewis.

Col. Alpheus Lewis, formerly of Tue son and Tombstone, died at Baker City, Oregon, after lingering illness of six weeks, resulting from an ac- cident that rendered tho amputation of his leg necessary. His son, Robert A. Lewis, was with his father during his illness and death. Both the de- ceased and his son were well known in Tucson in the early eighties. They were engaged in mining in the Orc Blanco and Tombstone mining dis tricts. The deceased was native of Kentucky and fought in the civil war. He was for a while on the staff of General Bragg. The Baker City (0regon) Democrat says:
 Besides his son, Robert A. Lewis, he leaves two daughters, Mrs. M. NJ. Bunnell and Mrs. H. c. Mason, of California, besides numerous relations ir Kentucky and Tennessee to mourn his loss.
 His son, Robert A. Lewis, who was the only member of the family present at the time of his fathers death, takes the loss of his father very hard, re- Father has been my play mate, companion, advisor, friend and business partner throughout the course of my whole life"

The Arizona Press association has done wisely in deciding to make things interesting for politicians who assume that the press of the territory can be kicked and cuffed with impunity. The newspapers are largely to blame for the insults that have been heaped upon them. They have neglected until now to assert themselves. Now that they have determined to stand upon their rights, and provided that a conserva- tive policy is followed, the Cheap John politicians who have made practice of giving the newspapers "the worst of it" may be taught salutary lesson. It will be a great day for the press when members of the legislature. for in stance, shall feel called upon to praise rather than to denounce the newspa- pers of the territory.-[ Republican.

Stin More countsrfeitina.

The Secret Service has unearthed an- other band ofcounterfeiters and secured a large quantity of bogus bills, which are so cleverly executed that the aver age person would never suspect them of being spurious. Things of great value are always selected by counter feiters for imitation, notably the cele- brated Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which has many imitators but no equals for indigestion, dyspepsia, con stipation. nervousness and general debility. The Bitters sets things right in the stomach, and when the stomach is in good order it makes good blood and plenty of it. In this manner the Bitters get at the seat of strength and vitality, and restore vigor to the weak and facilitated. Beware of counter. feits when buying.

There has been clash of author ity at the Sacaton agency, with the result that Chief Clerk Palmer has been transferred and Agent Hadley has been named as the Head Chief. Under civil service it often happens that the understrappers get the swell head, and try to run things with a high hand. It is not known whether that was the case in this instance, but it is sometimes that way. There never was bigger fraud invented than civil service, and everyone who comes un- der it's operation knows it.
