The Restoration of the Free Zone.

Working together with the mu- nicipaI governments of all the other cities along the international boundary in Mexico, the awtnta micntO of Nogales, Sonora, is en- gagged in pushing with the federal government project to restore the free zone, which had existed from the early history of the republic, and was abolished about ten years ago. The -ona libre as it was known in Mexico, was a strip of territory twenty miles wide, along the boundary from the mouth of the Rio Grande to the Pacific Ocean at Tia Juana, near San Diego, into which all foreign merchandise was entered with payment of but a small part of the customs duties. At first it was entirely free, then the amount to be paid was fixed at .10%, which was raised afterward to l5% bf the total duty. When any such merchandise was sent be- yond the free zone it paid the remainder Iof 'the duty imposed. As great quantities of the com modities crossing the line were consumed within the free zone they were sold there naturally much cheaper-by the amount of the duty unpaid-and the cost of all such merchandise was much cheap CT than in the rest of the republic, or on the American side of the line. That worked naturalIy great ad- vantage to border cities-Mata- moras, Laredo, Piedras Negras, Ciudad Juarez, (El Paso) Nogales, and Tia Juana,-which they are endeavoring to regain,

NOV. lO, lJ11.
 EDITOR TIE OAsIs:-Since my last letter there has been remark ably good discovery made in group of claims owned by John Allen and partner. The group is known as the Mineral Hill and comprises eighteen or twenty claims. The ore on which they are working in the new find is all of twelve feet in width and seems to be continuous. The average value is $55.00 per ton, the charac ter of the ore being copper and silver, with a slight percentage of gold.
 Mir. Allen has ten men at work mining and ore hauling and is making preparations to ship al least one hundred tons. At pres ent he has in the neighborhood of fifty tons at Chaves station and the daily output at the mine is about five to seven tons.
 A new wagon road for portion of the way to the railroad was completed a short time ago by Mir Allen and the grade is now much better for hauling. Mineral Hill, the name which the meteorological survey party gave it some years ago, was justly named as the hill in itself is nothing but a mass of lodges varying from ten to twenty feet in width running parallel, with occasionally lots of small feeders dipping to the main lodges. The formation is principally porphyry with some blowouts of lime and granite. All the lodges on the sur- face are well mineraized, showing copper stain heavily impregnated with iron hematite. This property according to all accounts has been worked thirty years ago or more but at that time owing to the heavy cost of transportation 1t is only reasonable to suppose that it could not be made paying proposition. Now, however, with railroad trans portation facilities so close 1t is a valuable property. The dimensions of this mineral belt are rather ex- tensive as to width and length and 1t seems to be a different character of ore from that in any other part of the Santa Rita mountains, there being a scarcity of lime apparently in all the other camps except this.
 The day is not far remote when some enterprising company such as the Ray or Miami will investi- gate this locality. There is a good show for capital to invest with safety, asit has been proven beyond a doubt that large ore bodies exist in the Sheehy.O'Donnell and Min eral Hill groups.

ORGANIZED FOR THE FRAY
Republicans of Santa Cruz County
 Putting On Their Armor.

Last Saturday evening there was held in the republican headquart. CTS in the Lyric Theatre building, large and enthusiastic meeting of republicans who had responded to the call of the chairman of the county committee, Mir. H. Gordon Glore, to meet with the candidates an inaugurate the campaign for the coming state election.
 Mir. Frank J. Barry Esq, was elected chairman of the meeting and Mir. Thos Keough was made secretary.
 In taking their respective places Messrs Barry and Keough deliv- cred short and spirited addresses that aroused great enthusiasm and were hailed with hearty applause, MT. Barry said the very air of Santa Cruz county seems now alive with republicanism, and he pre-. dicted a glorious victory for the entire ticket. Mir. Keough told his hearers that the cabalistic initials "G. 0. F." mean not only Grand Old Party" but they mean also "Get Out and Push," and he called upon all republicans in Santa Cruz county to "get out and push" the ticket to success.
 The nominee for state senator, MT. Allen T. Bird was called on for an account of the proceedings at the territorial central committee and party county meetings at Phoenix last week, which he gave together with an account of some of the leading candidates.
 Judge A. s. Henderson of Pata. gonia, the lone republican on the board of supervisors, a candidate for reelection, pledged care, economy and efficiency in the con duct of the county'8 affairs, as did Mir. A. L. Peck of Nogales, one of his colleagues on the ticket.
 Messrs F. J. Taylor E. L. Mix and II. R. Renshaw, nominees re- respectively for recorder, clerk of the superior court and superinten- dent of schools, each made terse and effective addresses which all served to keep enthusiasm bub- bling.
 Mir. Watt Gittins, nominee for justice of the peace in Nogales precinct pledged a straight forward careful administration of the office to which he aspires.
 Speechmaking over the assem-. blage resolved itself into cam paign club, with the chairman, Frank J. Barry Esq, president thereof, and the secretary Thos. Keough in the like position, to which latter were added the duties of treasurer. The name adopted was "Young Mems Progressive Re- publican Club of NOgales," and it was announced that similar organ izations will be launched in Tubac, Patagonia and other point in the county.

tractors. Work on the we'll is pro- gressing slowly owing to the ex- treme hardness of the rock, which Is very solid, tough syenite. At the time of the visit the well had reached depth of twenty-two feet. Monday the contractors commenced working three shifts, eight hours each, and the work will progress ia little more rapidly. In the eight days preceding Monday only seven feet were gained.
 The well is located at the point originally selected (there was some report of an intended change in location), which is at the foot of the rocky promontory rising pre- cipitously from the river on the north side of the entrance to Proto cafon, just beyond the point where the road to Patagonia branches off In the canon. From the road Wnlch rises ana crosses over the promoDtory, one can look down on the we'll and camp just the north side of the summit. The bottom of the we'll is now about at the level of the river bed It is to be sunk in the rock to a depth of sev- enty feet, and ten feet from the bot tom there is to be run drift. which will break out of the rock into the sand of the river he'd, giv- ing flow of water which will rise in the well to the level of the water in the stream. The ten. foot sump at the bottom of the well will serve as a settler, catching and holding all the sand and shines which come in with the water. When it fills sand pump can clean it readily.
