Solid Prospects
 for Tombstone

The attempt to minimize the importance of Tombstone as an integral part and pre-. dominating factor in the his tory, organization and sOlld future of Cochise county and of Arizona, like the broken ice behind A. Wentworth's bar lis not what it is cracked up to be.
 It will melt as quickly as h a { ice, unsupported by foundation as the ice Is by temperature, and the solid merit of the old district will assert itself, eventually, like the history of Athens, i'm maculate, enduring and ever- lasting, so far as this genera ton is concerned.
 The quiet, the uniform, the unfailing and continuous ad- vancement in the progress of the development and rehabili- tation of the magnificent old , camp is without a parallel.
 The blow which silver re- ceived at the hands of con- gress, 1t now appears, has been completely offset by the modern method of mining and reduction, which enables | the miner to produce an ounce of silver for less than half of what he could when the white metal was coined.
 Now, the mines of Tomb stone have, after producing multl-millions, only D D scraped, and that down to water level. Beneath that the enhanced values, which invariably occur, again offset the cost of handling t h e water, while that element can be utilized to profit and ad- vantage in score of ways. Thus you will observe, that
 Tombstone is a predestined favorite of the Goddess of
 Fortune, and can smi l e serenely while snarling envy heleaguers her about. Uni versal comment from visitor
 from the East and from every section of the country is 10 the effect that Tombstone has not only the most solid prospects as a mining center, but is tue most charming city in the territory. Don't worry about solid old Tomb stone.

murdered Moses Goodman in his fiat at No.

Yesterday for Inspector McCafferty, and
Magistrate House sent him back to Yon-

lifting.
Several days ago Judge Beals, Of Yon-

confession that he killed Goodman caused
him to be brought to this city
Il will turn this matter over to the Dis
trict Attorney" said Magistrate House,
and If we cannot indict him for the Goot
man murder we can at least get him for
this piece of perjury. Here is the AFFIDAVIT

killed Goodman, and now he says it is not
true and that he knows nothing about it.
James Rosenwald, alias Jimmy the
Crab whom the police arrested when
Schwartz said he had been one of his &C

discharged by the magistrate, as there was
