 news continues to come to the owner of the Eureka in Jerome. Its condi tions are changing so much for tht better as depth is attained, that the
 tinue the winze down to a depth o1
 125 or 150 feet before drifting. The
 winze is now going down through
 sand carboantes, some quartz and
 sulphides, water is near, and as it is
 approached everything in connection
 with the workings is showing to much
 better advantange.
 On October 1, R. G. Hamilton and
 c. G. Sagor struck a vein of copper
 within eighteen miles of Phoenix
 that is richer than the ore of the
 famous United Verde mine at Jerome
 It bears nine per cent. of copper,
 besides averaging $19 in gold to the
 ton. The cropping is about 200 feet
 long and fifteen feet wide. It points
 directly towards Jerome and this gives rise to the belief that the vein
 is an extension of that worked by the United Verde company.
 The probabilities are that the next legislature will amend the incorpora. tion act so as to make the territorial auditor the agent of all corporations and allow that official to handle all the articles of incorporation, and turn the fees into the territorial treasury. This will increase the revenue of the Cowan bill almost double and will be very beneficial in many other ways. The Enterprise is of the opinion that such a measure | will meet with the unqualified ap- proval of tNe tax payers of Arizona.
 Chas. E. Finch, Thomas Blake, | Sam Echols and Mrs. Rawlins shipped | a carload of honey November 3, to the Canada Biscuit Co.,, of Chicago, Ill.,, and have gotten their returns for the shipment. Although the honey crop last year was three times what it is this year, there is but half a cent difference in the price, in favor of last year. This has been a poor year for bees, not only in the Gila valley, but throughout the country, only about one-third of crop being harvested. This season has been the only failure in the honey crop ever known in this valley.-Safford Journal.

Kittinger, also from Clifton and :, with the Arizona Copper VI, ,r a prospecting trip in the Dos Ca +l ezos district. They will leave in r lree or four days with a bunch of a, ack animals loaded with supplies for =. K weeks MT. Somers will work out I theory of his that the Dos Cabezos N strict, abounding in alkali basins f, nd having the same formation as h oldfelds, New, is also a rich gold r 0untry. He expects to find that the . aters of ages holding metals in IT ,lution flowing over these alkali = ats have deposited the fine gold in -evfces, as in the Goldfelds country. Douglas American. n
