A Rich Gold Strike.

CRIPPLE CREEK, (Colo.) Oct. 22.-The greatest strike of gold in the history of Cripple Creek camp, and probably in the world, was made in the EIkton mine to-day. Drifting at the 700-foot level, 100 feet from the main shaft, the miners struck what seems to be dome or great crater of fabulous extent, and the richness of which is beyond belief
 A ledge of horine tale, five feet wide, has been opened, and neither wall has been found. This fairly glitters with sylvanite and rich quartz. The vein radiates from large chimney, in which is a lake, the bottom of which is unfathomable The dome is thirty feet in diameter The roof and sides show that the matter has been burned all the way from yellow to deep black. The decomposed matter, when brought to 1 the surface, showed blue color. It is of the subsistence of dough, spark ling with grains of the precious metal, like sand in mortar. There are hundreds of tons now in sight, and when it is opened out more there will be thousands.
 The ElSton mine was recently flooded by lake being tapped Great pumps are lowering the water rapidly, and then the true extent of the richest strike ever known will be revealed The management refuses tn divulge the assay of the mine further than that it runs into thousands of dollars per ton

THE manifold advantages of state hood have been for years subject of much concern with the TRIBUNE, and no one could bemore glad to note the un- animous sentimentamong our people in favor of Arizona assuming the dignity of State. While this is so, it is to be regretted that the three up democratic politicians of Florence, who, by grace of the appointive power, seem to be in control for the time being, could not be broad enough to go outside of their little clique in naming delegates to the statehood convention which assemblies in Phoenix to-day. At soch time MEN bury their personal pnimosisies.

Discuss a New Railroad Project.
From the phoenix Gazette.


 Messrs George Marston, H. P. Wood and s W Ferguson, of the San Dieg o chamber of commerce, were informally the guests of the local board of trade last night The gentlemen are here for the purpose of looking over Arizona and incidentally feel the pulse of the people regarding the extending of the San Diego and Yuma railroad to Phoe- nix. No proposition was made by the visitors. but the development of Ariz- ona was discussed.
 The visitors regard the proposed road from Phoenix to Benson as a certainty. Already the Phelps Dodge company has road from Benson to Bisoee and then to Fl Paso, which will connect with tn e Rock Island. When the road from San Diego to Yuma is completed it will leave only small strip of road necessary to trans-consinental line. Should this road be built, Phoenix would soon be on the main line of trans-continenta tai road It was very interesting sub iect and the conference between the visitors and the board of trade dir ec- tors lasted until a late hour

FROM AGRICOLIST

In answer to an article from
Rustic last week, l should havc
put tho question Il littlo more
pointed, but I had reference to
selling meet, as | notice it is gem
erallv raised on corn almost alone
as feed, and tho hogs generally in
mud holes. BY planting pindors,
potatoes etc, suppcrent tn" corn,
tho >per section Of our country
ought not to buy pound Of pork
or bacon. Notice the Clemson
College experiment stations report
on values of articles as hog feed ::
Pindors ut $24.5O per acre. pota-
toes at $3.50, corn ut $IG.5O; this
Looks unreasonable, but l believe
thcro is great difference. l have
beer trying this plan in part for
several years and am much pleased
with it. I believe now that it is a
sorry hog or one that has poor
feed and attention that does not
make from 3D. to one pound Of
meat every day it lives, if kept
seven to eighteen or twenty
mouths. Many Of the expert
mental stations in the United
States report that one bushel Of
corn will make twelve pounds Of
meat. | doubt this. y large hog
will eat q peck cf corn per day
and would havo to make about
three pounds of meat per day. If
it does the twelve pounds at six
cents make sevcnty-two cents; the
corn Is worth seventy five cents,
20 say nothing Of time wasted and
lost IN attention. The western
man feeds corn worth about half as
much as ours, one-half cent per
bushel pays freight to us. I think
it wise to calculate closely on our
business. I notice there arc some
mon who seem to got more money
and get there lirst, who sell some
eggs but no chickens.
l believe chicken will eat q
peck Of grain or dough in 90 days,
and, if good stock, will weigh two
pounds. At 10, IL, or even is cts.
there is no money in IT, making no
allowance for what the hawks and
cholera take.
