Editor DOrrinetOn Free of Burden Now

The Arizona Sentinel thus relates
how it has been relieved of burden:
The litigation between Eugene S.
Ives and J. w. Darlington, editor of
the Sentinel, which has been pending
in the district court for several years
has at last ended in a compromise.
The first suit was brought by J. w.
Darlington on promissory note for
$3.50 against Ives. Judgment for the
amount, with interest and costs, was
obtained in the district court, but
the defendant appealed. Shortly
after the filing of this suit Senator
Ives, as means of retaliation; as it
appeard, instituted an action for
libel against j. w. Darlington, claim
ing damages in the sum of $25, 900.
The alleged libel consisted of small
paragraph in the Sentinel, printed
during the campaign of 1902, when
Senator Ives was a candidate for re-
election to the territorial council
from Yuma county.
Both suits have been holly contest
ed. it being the policy of Senator
Ives to secure a continuance of the
libel suit from term to term on
various pretexts, while the defendant
Darlington fought as determinedly to
bring the case to trial. In this
feature Senator Ives was eminently
successful, as we have never even
been able to get him into court on
that libel issue.
But the Ratchet is now buried. By
mutual agreement the libel suit has
been dismissed, the other suit settled
by compromise and all litigation be-
tween the parties ended Sentinel.
A deal has been closed and is now
for the first time made public,
whereby the great Trinidad mine in
Sonora, Mexico, has passed from the
control of Los Angeles and San
Francisco capitalists to the Greene
Gold-Silver company, which has also
acquired the Pilares coal fields in
Sonora from Mr.. F. A. Hartman of
Douglas. The Trinidad mine has
been worked more or less continu-
ously, for three centuries. 1t is a
vast ore body, 400 feet wide by 1000
feet long, and opened to d depth of
200 feet. Whether it is a vein,
chimney or deposit is not known.
The deepest workings are in ore
which shows no sign of failing.
Through this great mass, high-grade
streaks often of large size have been
followed and worked out in every
direction. There remains an enor-
nous tonnage of what is, for that
country, low grade ore, stated to run
on an average from twenty to thirty
ounces silver, from one to two per
cent. copper and about So gold.
