WONDERFUL MINERAL FIELD
No Country Has a More Promising
 Future Than Arizona.

w. A. Parish of Denver who is rec ogni2ed as not only a competent en- gineer, but one of the best mining men in the country, and who is stopping at the Hotel Adams, was prevailed upon tO make a. few general comments on the subject of mining in Arizona. What he said is of interest both because he is not given to idle talking and be cause his remarks are most encourag- ing.
 He was particularly asked about the Nulture district. where he has been sampliEg properties for the last month. He entered into no details but said it was d section morvelously rich in min eral and respecting the Vulture mine. all that he cared to say was that it was a great mine and that the only trouble with it was that it was discov- cred twenty years too soon.
 Mir. Parish said that he had had Ari- Zona under a more or less personal ob servation for thirty-four years. or since 1870, when he first visited the ter ritOry to see the old Plaaet mine on Bill Williams Fork. It was a great mine then and the ores from it were freighted to the Colorado river, and taken by boat to San Francisco for reduction. Since then he has been here many times and at one time nr another has visited all the principal districts. He says that from the Nav ajo country on the northeast to Yuma in the southwest and also from the northwest to the southeast, nearly every hill and mountain is mineralized to some extent and he believes Arizona will at no distant day be the greatest mining country in the United States.
 One thing that people who rely on statistics often overlook, in comparing Arizona s mineral output with that Cf other countries, is the small popula- ton. This territory is third in the st of copper producing states, and add to the value of her copper product in money the four or five millions of gold annually produced and the silver. lead and other metals, and it is not unlikely that Ariozna is today producing more per capita from her mines than any other state.
 And the general conformation of the country suggests it's mineral wealth iu another way, even to one who has never been kere. It is known Of all men that for the most rart the pre- cious metals are found in a mountain ous country and especially in the great Rocky Mountain system. A glance at the map shows one that ali the greater Colorado ranges run gen

The church must show these two factions a moe excellent way.
 Second, Sabbath dissertation. when France abolished the Christian Sab bath, the French revolution was at hand.
 Third corrpution of the ballot box.
 Fourth. The American saloon. This is our nations greatest foe.
 To sum dp our blessings: We have the best country ir the world, in mat tsrs of health, wealth and opportunity; together with the best civilization. Let us appreciate our hel-Cdge anl strive to be worthy of it. IL remains for American citizens to re-petuate the noble institutions which have come down to us from the fathers and to make our counry greater with every passing decade.

erally from northeast to southwest down into Colorado. The Californ a ranges that are the home of the great mineral belt in that country run from northwest to southeast toward Ari zona, and all the big ranges in Nevada and Utah, between the other states named are more near;y north and south but all extending on down into this territory. All the large mountain formations of the country that are the home of mineral wealth seem to con verge in an area but little wider than the limits of Arizona, both east and west The New Mexico boundary line does cut off a narrow strip from the eastern side of this mineral wonder land. but eastern New Mexico and western Texas have little to offer the prospector and but few mines.
 These remarks, MT. Parish said, were merely general and of course do net imply that every mineralized hill will pay to work. The statements are only made to show how clear it should be to all that it is a mineral country, just the sort of a country man wants in which 10 look for a mine.
 But what is needed, said MT. Parish, is more small mines in operation: plants where the small miner may work his ores and get profit, and when he is tired let somebody else work them. He says il was the many small enterprises N that made Grippe Creek, Leadville and other great camps, rather than the big honarzas that were discovered.
 In conclusion, he said that the busi- ness of mining is very fast becoming legitimate. Safeguards are thrown around the investment of moeny, greater care is taken in the examina- tion of properties, and reducing and operating expenses have been made so much cheaper than in former days that he believes there is less money lo-t to- day in legitimate mining enterpr.sss than in almost any other line of invest meut

Town Politics.

The JOURNAL is officially informed
that the republican primaries for nomi-
mating candidates for Mayor and Couu-
cilmen will be held Saturday evening,
March l9-one week from to-day. This
gives the people II days within which to
formulate opposition if the result be nm.
satisfactory. Last year the committee
allowed the people only 1 days, one of
these Sunday. Hence, the concession
made this year is in the interest of good
government, for which the committee
deserves Communications.
Meanwhile, the JOURNAL has heard no
cOuntermand of the announcement
made three weeks ago, of the "Citizens'
Meeting" Tuesday, March 10, but in the
light of the action stated above it may
be well to postpone it to an evening be-
yond the 10th.
Here is "a mixed ticket" offered
For Mayor-Charles II. Walker.
For CpuaciInct-George &. Townsend,
