Willcox, September 50 It Joolcs at present as if this place-attcr the " hurrah and busUo of firat excite ment attendant on all new railroad towns pass away 13 to become quite an important shipping -point, and a place of considerable size. The peo ple who are here now, however, con stitute little .more- than a.picnicing party; no one dares to erect anything more than the easily-moved tent, lest the railroad'company. In its mysteriously-veiled purpose, may decide to build its depot at some more eligible spot, and certainly a more elicible spot could readily" bo found in this valley 6T magnificent distances. Ia fact, there are few points between these two ranges of mountains where a town could not be better located The present "vTUlcox (with two Ve, for that Is the way the powers of the Tail road describe it) lies in the center of the Sulphur Spring Vallev, and is separated by intervening strataof dust and cement from the seeping waters slowly finding their way from the mountains and plains to the Yaqui River, and thenco to the Gulf. In deed, they claim here that these springs are tne Headwaters of that river. Certain it is that an immense body of water slowly creeps down under the. dusty and alkaline pjainj. For miles across the valley this water can lm rpnpiioii at a depth.varyigfrom three to thirty teet. Here at willcox very fine wa ter ia. taken from wells, only eiuht feet deep;- though large well sunk by the" company is fifteen feet deep." This well, a large-sized pumping engine. a huge tank, a aide-track, and a small, coarsely.coastrnctedi'reight platform. constitute all the ''works with which the railway magnates have yet deigned to console the weary camner. as all of these improvements with the ex ception, perhap3, of. the well can easily be movedt,l can hardly charge the citrons with lack of enterprise in not erecting more substantial build ings. Although the freight now being re ceived at Wilcox is considerable, the same uncertainty regarding the local ly of the town still prevents much of the freight form coming here. The Inhabitants therefore find considerable time on their hands, which, being an especially. jnerry.and eftnial Int. may. employ in the circulation of petitions for every conceivable thing, from postomce down to goats," and in fun- making generally Ihc pioneers Hose " whocamo in with the railway" few weeks since, look down with patronizing condescension on the new comer It is-the way I observe with all pioneers. Every man whom I met, with a few exceptions, was a forward ing and commission; merchant, or combined thatwith;somo other bus-i-ness. i There.nrj aheady s everal fam ilies in the town, and tho due propor- tfon.of rosy-cheeked children may be scea'wriningtaroundiinithoidust and such quantities of dust! The future of Wilcox will be that or freighting town, I fancy, and a arge town at mat. ah mc ircigm and supplies for Camps Grant, Bowie,t Thomas and Jtucker, ban tanos Agency, GlohC District, Arivaipa District, Swisshelm District, all the settemcnts on the Gila, and last but by no means leas, Dos Cabesas dis trict must necessarily come here; and the agent of the Clifton Copper - -v ' Tt 4f...A tma nil. mine, m Jiarcus o.. .uni) ci , - tablished himself, here, I conclude that the heavy shipments from those mines are intended, to .find a railway outlet in "Wilcox. Ira quarter ot tnc glowing reports which I hear of the Dos Cabesas mines arc true, tnen in:u district of itself, only tweivo mncs south of here, will in the near luiuie keep an immense number of teams busy hauling supplies. Politically, Wilcox is lor Mcwan, . .... . - Tl . 1.1 T first, last and all tnc time, now, i found two men who said they would vote forOury, but they. wcreu t pio neers, and IbclievoJMr. Stewart won't need their assistance, anyway. Aim am told that our gallant candulatc will go out of bis home district (Camp Grant is only thirty miles south ol here) with a practically unanimous vote. In theeclcnco of politics, if .a candidate stands so well at home, it is pretty safe for those who do not know him so well to endorco him. And this is especially eo in this instance from the fact that I am told that this section of the country is by no means unan imous in support of the Republican ticket, aside from3Ir. Stewart; though from tho frequent expressions of dis gust of tho ticket put up by the Democrats, I am led to believe that our whole ticket, with a lew excontions, will "take the cake here". And the TOto of tho new pre cinct of Wilcox will be no mean one, I can assure you. Prominent among the ex-Tucsonians established here, I find R. B. Kelly and Capt. A. P. Burke. The former is as good-natured and bunting as of yore, and ably represents tho forward ing business of Thomas Steele. Mr. t..-!.. .-. ;.. ti eama business for himself and is. In addition, Daputy Si Lr ta tr- t.ii. mm tht on the 3Sth BHIIAJ4, I - he registered no less than 14 vntnrc ... -Li . muhins -to m an up to this time. He also secured SO names to a petition ir a postoillcc here. There are only two regular saloons as yet one owned by ilaley Bros, of woa auesas, and run by Charley donnarow, and the other owned by II. i. Cook. The latter is one of the most pretentious buildings of board, asMr. Cook thinks the town has come to slay." Of the merchants in town there arc the following: Blaisdell & Johnson, formerly, I believe, of Benson ;Thomp son & 1 edford, who have a laree stock of general merchandise; a branch of me well-known firm of Baruett & Block, who keep always in tho van of railway progress; and of the well known San Francisco house of Libei man & Co., who arc most ably repre sented by Mr. Mayer. All of the above firms also do a general forwarding and freighting business, and all have large stocks of. goods; but it is somewhat amusing to watch the various venders hunt around among the miscellaneous boxes and bags and parcels to find ar ticles wanted by customers. Every thing's topsytnrvyr of necessity, and the search is almost invariably ac companied by s6me very choice ana themas at tho tlilatonnees of the .rail way in " settling things." It is to bo hoped that things will he " settled by the time this letter reaches your readers. Of the provisions for regaling the inner man, the traveler mav foci as sured.

J Preliminary Examination ol 31r. Esr. In the preliminary examination of the Territory of Arizona against Win. Eger, charged with assault with in tent to commit murder by shooting one B. Hefti. on October 1st, on Meyers street, the evidence elicited shows clearly that the accused Eger acted in necessary self-defense. And Justice Neugass, after reviewing the testimony, in his decision says: That it is a settled rule and agreed at this day that no words whatsoever can amount to assault, or justify, an as sault Yet words may sometimes explain and give character to phys ical acts, and may so combine with attendant circumstance as to make an assault, which, without the wOrds, would not be such. In the case at bar, ncfti was in the condi tion stated ; ho violently attacked the defendant with bad words and epi thets and combined the same with an actual assault, whereas the de fendant Eger being a man of poor physical health, and under the fear and excitement of receiving great bodily harm lrom his assailant, he fired the shots at Hefti. Tho de fendant Eger acted purely under the influence of thoe fears and in defense of his person, and not in a spirit of revenge, or has shown a malignant heart. Defendantordercd discharged. Tipped the Stage Over. iFrom the Globe Silver Belt. The incoming stage from Florcnco met with a serious mishap last Wed nesday, a milo and a half the other ido of Riverside. Coming down a steep grade the brakes refused to work, and tho horses started on tho run. Tho coaches are so constructed that the forward wheels can be un rnnnled. This the driver did, but the wheels had got off the grade and the coach upset, lucre wore nine pas scnirers aboard, all of whom wero considerably shaken up, and one bad ly hurt.. TUCSON, PIMA COUNTY, ABIZ0NA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, NEWS FROSt GUAY3IAS Projrrcs or tlio Atchison, Topcka aud Sauta Fo Railroad Reported Trou ble n 3Iyth Permnnent Location iif tho Rnllrnad, Etc. A Citizen reporter interviewed Messrs. T. W. Hepburn of Guay mas, and J. Collingwood, to-day and obtained from them the follow ing items of genoral information. To begin with they informed our reporter that the story of probable trouble with the citizens of Guaymas and the railroad company has no foun dation whatever. It all grew out of the published statement of a young nath e who desired to air himself in the columns of a new paper which he had started, and because he thought at the time the railroad company was going to lay their track in front of his mother's house. Ho afterwards found out that the road was not going there at all. The best peoplo never en dorsed his course and nothing was thought ol" it there more than would have been of a similar tirade in a country paper on this side of the line. Two shiploads of irou arrived out the day Mr. Hepburn left Guaj-mas on the 27th ultimo, with enough iron etc., to lay 30 miles of track, which is already graded. Mr. Gardner, superintendent of the rood, had arrived and was ready to take charge of his department. Tho road is now permanently lo cated to a point 53 miles out from Guaymas. The work U nil done by contract, and the labor so far has been performed uy native Mexicans and Indiaus. A report was put in circulation by the journal above referred to, that tho government would collect ditty on iron and railroad material shipped m for the construction of the road, which proved to be without foundation. The health of Americans employed in the survey and engineering depart ment is good , though they complain of excessively warm weather. Preliminary survey will sioii be made from Ilcrmosillo north to cou neet with the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fc road. Mr. Collingwood stated that the mining business was looking up in Sonora," and that a 40 stamp mill had been shipped for the Menas Prietas Mining Company, which is located near Hcrmosillo. The financial condition of the coun ry is much improvod and tho good ell'ect of internal inprovements has already been felt. Merchants who have hitherto been compelled to send native coin abroad for payment of bills, can nrtw bny the drafe of the railroad company, ami thus keep their money at home for cirrulation. Calllnr; on the Gods. The Expositor calls on "the Gods to " prosper the Democrats of Pima county." What Is the matter with the Expositor? Has it lost faith in u Uncle Billy" and other Democratic leaders in Pima county that it call3 on the Gods to holp the party out? It is very amusing to observe the squirming of the " walk overs." They were very sanguine at the beginning of the cam paign. They were so sanguine that they insisted on drawing party linc3. They were going to carry the Dem ocratic ticket with a hurrah. But now that the ltcpuuucans nave ac cepted the challenge, and have shown such remarkable strength, not only in Pima county, but throughout the en tire Territory, they have completely lost their equilibrium nnd arc calling on the Gods to help them out! They weaken early in the fight. The " 2."j0 to 300 majority thoy have beeu claiming in Pimn County has dwindled down to nothing, and ir the Gods don't help them out they .aro surely lost; and as it is not at all likely the Gods know anything about them, their chances for success arc indeed slim. That ,: 2o0 to 300 " will be put on the other side, and 2.")0 more with it mark what we tell you. The Itepuh licans Will carry Pimn rounty with a handsome majority. lie Wanted a Change. There was a little shootingscrape at a little town in me lmeriur ui itnw not long ago, and it was not long be fore a Galvostou News reporter was on the spot interviewing one of.the principals, "So you're rjoing to writu ft up." said the survivor. " Yes, I want all the facts." " I don't caro a cent what you soy about the shooting, but I havo a little favor to ask." The reporter said ho would grant it cheerfully if he could. "Well." said the shoolist. -'I want yon to put down that my grandfather .rrnflli.'. ..: nml tl,n worst cut-throat of the gang " Tho reporter starea a little, but mo shootist went on to say: " Please put in that one ol my uncies wns lmnc bv the Yicilanco Committee in ban x rancisco, ana two more oi .. . ' . them are making shoes in the Illinois penitentiary; that another one of them is practicing law in 2cx? York, and my only sister ran away from home with the clown of a circus; that bo far as you can learn there is not a member of the family that has not done some thing disgraceful." " Why, what do you want all that in the paper for." " Because I am sick of reading in the narjers that every fellow who has a little shooting scrape belongs to one of the most respectable families in the country. Just put it uown ior once, that one of the parties to tho unfortu nntn affair belones to a hiehly dis reputable family. If you don't put it in that way yen wiUwlih you cau. The County Campaign. It is reported thbt at the last Demo cratic State Convention In New Jersey one of the unterrifled patriots rushed wildly to the stand, waiving his arms and yelled: " This i3 no d n prajer meeting." Judging from the way In which the campaign in this county has opened we believe before the next mouth is out, the serenity and quiet of au assemblage devoted to prayer and thanksgiving will be sadly lack ing. While the Republicans will un questionably have their share at least of the excitement, we want right here to tell why. The party issue in the first place was forced upon them by the action of the Democrats, and when they took up the guage of bat tle it was through the instrumentality of a convention made up of the lead ing men of the county, upon a plat form solid and straight-forward and with a ticket that commands respect. The Republicans intend to make a stirring, aggressive campaign and have gone m to win. Big meetings, wigwams, banners and all the parapha nalia of a dress parade may stir up the boys to enthusiasm, but voters are made by close and earnest attention to registration, the preventing of any of the old fraudulent votin; and the bringing out the full party strength. The candidates on the present Demo cratic ticket have all held ofilec one, two and three terms oh, where is their third-term cry now and it has been ascertained beyond doubt that the affairs of nearly every ofllco have been managed in a way that the pul- lic should know. If there was ever a vulnerable set of officials it is those of Pima county, and, if we are not much mistaken, before the Republi cans get through with tltom in this campaign, the public will think so too. If there is anything approaching the praycr-mecting in this fight, it will be the mourners' bench on which these officials will sit. Of course nil this will create hard feelings, bitterness, nnd perhaps the disruption of pleas ant relations, but if unpleasantness comes whose fault is it The Repub licans are about and mean business. The Citizen has so far ami will to the end do all it can to help the good cause along, but docs not Intend to fill itscolumus with personalities however much such may be bandied about. In Mir Field. Messrs. Stiles, Drake and Price ore out takinc in the situation. They have paid their respects to Tombstone, where they were well received. They will visit several other mining camps before they return, and wo bespeak i'or them u favorable reception wherc- ever they may go. Theo. L. Stiles is our candidate for Probate Judnc. He is a lawyer and just such a man as we need for that important office. Lyt tleton Price is the Republican nom inee for District Attorney .

Drake, our can didate for County Recorder, is so far ahead of his opponent that it is hardly worth while for us to say anything in his favor. His election is a foregone conclusion. They will return via Harshaw and Washington camps, where they will meet with many warm friends. "We look for a good report from these gentlemen on their return home. 31arlcoi:i County.

Several rich gold ledges were discov ered, and those interested imagine they have millions. Couriers arrived last night from Gen. Carr's command, who was then on the Ganos river, bringing the news that Lieut. S. C.

Since the organization of the New- burg Cemetery Association several weeks ago, for the purpose of Improv ing the ground at the Old Town" cemetery, adjoining the i irst Presby terian Church, much work has ben done at the graveyard. Many New burgers will remember n very largo willow tree that has for years stood about 25 feet from the fence, nearly in n direct line with the north side of Gidney avenue. This tree at the base was between four and five feet in di ameter, nnd to remove it required con siderable work. Last week Mr. Fryer nud his men began. It was necessary to take off tho large limbs, and lower them carefully, and then dijr. down nud around the stump, until a hole six or Eeven feet had been mad so tho roots could betaken out. When the workmen reached the roots they found them a tangled mass running in all directions, and thoroughly in tertwined. They had grown around two foot-stones so that tho latter were imbedded in the tree from twelve to eighteen inches, the smaller part of them only being visible. On one stone were the Initials " P. K.." and on the other " M. B." Thct-e stones were carefully cut out and reset in the ground at the same place whero they were taken out, which had previously been marked. A head-stoae was also firmly imbedded in the roots nf the trce, which were growing closer every year. about U ' The most singular discovery. How ever, was to loiiow. when uic men were ready to take the tree away, it was necessary to cut the stump in nieces, as it wns large and heavy. They sawed into It, and, after cutting about 15 inches from the surface, at a noint about three feet from the ground. the saw grated across something hard. Not expecting to lino anything but wood 90 far in the tree, they made several more strokes, and stopped only when they noticed the sawdust once knew wa3 maroic mist, iney then split the stump, using powder and axe. until they reached the curi osity, which proved to be a marble foot-stono, in the heart of the willow tree. The roots or grain of the tree had grown around it, nnd evidently had been too powerful for the stone, for it had been broken In two pieces and the top leaned considerably out of its place, although closely sur rounded by wood. They did all they could to get it out. but it was quite impossible to do so Without breaking it up. A portion ol it rcmnineu in mc stump, which was cameo, oil to iNorih street, we are told, wuere u was thrown into some dumping ground. The small pieces that did come out were thrown into the hole from which the tree was taken. No inltals were noticed on the pieces that were ex posed to view or Ukcn out. Yuma County. From the Sentinel.) Hon. Granville II. Oury arrived here Thursday evening, ami was met at tho depot by a largo number of citizens. Sunday morning a special steamer left for Norton's Landing, with ninoty tons of freight for tho Red Cloud Gold nnd Silver Mining Company. The freight consists of the new smelting machinery and coke for the company. Hon. M. W. Stewart is daily ex pected to visit Yuma. Wc hope that a rousing reception will be given him by the Republicans and citizens gen erally. His canvass so far has been brilliant and effective, and we pre dict his election by a hnndsorao ma jority. Judge Alexander and family have returned from their summer pa3oar with remewed health . They nil agree that Yuma has its charms, and in no place that they have visited have they met -with as pcriect wcatiicr as were. A telegraph line from Yuma to Sil ver District yia Castle Domo is in contemplation. To-morrow morning a special steamer leavos for Norton's Landing, with ninety tons of freight tor the Red Cloud Gold and Silver Mining Company. The freight consists of the new smelting machinery and coko for the company.

It seems to us that if Mr. Mongredien would devote his pen in favor or eleviatiqg tho farmers of his own country from their present de plorable condition he would be doing a better work.

H. Paul, the 1nniilinn irwi;,t,t fYr QI.a.T 1 is that he " is not well enongh ; known." By this silly objection they hope to stem the popular opinion that Mr. Paul is the fittest man who can be found for the position. He is not a wealthy man, and does not make acquaintances over saloon bars, or buy men's votes for the " drinks all around . " This may be a serious fault in the eyes of some of the members of the Democratic party, bat it will hardly prove so in the judgment of a majority of our people on election day. For the office of Sheriff hp is peculiarly fitted. As a detective for Wells, Fargo & Co. he has shown ia our own Territory that he is- to be feared by the criminals and respected by the peace-abiding citizens of lima county, and now we desire to let our people know what he is thought of in other communities where he has re sided. The followintr, from the Cal averas Chronicle, speaks volumes for our candidate: R.'H. Paul, an old Calaveratile. now a resident of Tucson, Arizona, and who for the past four or five years has been in the employ of Welte, Fargo & Co. as a special detective, has been nominated for Sheriff by the Republicans of Pimft county, Arizona . Up to the time he entered in the em ploy of Wells, Fargo & Co. Mr. Paul resided in this county, and was known throughout its length and breadth . We arc not surprised at the nomination, for it is only a recognition ot eminent fitness. Coming to this county in early dsys, when it required no or dinary ncrvo to perform the daties of conservator of the peace, Mr. Paul acted in that capacity for years, and was never known to shrink from duty no matter how desperat the case might be. Ills character is irreproachable, and his official record in this county Is faultless. The peo ple of Pima connty, Arizon i. ar.- f. i -lunale to have the opportunity t' )':' ting up such a man as !'

V sincerely hope ti.fe.lv hnn ho t will be elected. ChsHictjr In the Ticket. At a meeting of the Republican County Committee, held yesterday, the resignation of J. M. McArtbor and Henry Benhman as candidates for .l,,c Legislative AssemWy were weelv- e.l and accepted, and . B. Clifford. f of Tucson, and W. H. Wood, of Dos Cabezas, were named in their stead. The following is Mr. .McArthnr's withdrawal : To The Republican Central C mtDt'i tee of Pima Connty. Arizona. Gextucaiax : Owing to the fact that business will compel me to ? absent from thi Territory tor the greater part of the balance otthe pres ent year and possibly for several months in the next year, I hive the honor to nana you herewith my resig nation as a candidate for the Legisla ture, trusting that yon will be able to rill the vacancy thus caused on our ticket with a man who will beau bon- est worker, ami also successful in the campaign. This resignation is nut made without regret that I Miull not I able to make a fight for the cause of Republicanism in Arizona, and see its flag carried forwanl in proud ex ultation and triumph in next Novem ber. But though absent from the im mcdiated scene of the straggle in hotly I shall lie with you In spirit and look with feelings of pride for the news that our csnse, oar Delegate and our nominees are in the opinion of the intelligent people ot Pima county, the ablest and best fitted to protect and carry out their interests and wishes -Very respectfully, J. M. McARTnm. Tucson, A. T., Oct. 1. 1880. Tho Killing of Marwi. The Glube City papers come to us with detailed accounts of the shooting of Bojenck Maroo, at Kambox Camp, four miles from Globe, by JJV. A. Holmes, on tho 38th nit., a con densed aceount of which appeared in our telegaphic columns. Mr. Holmes Is one of the best-known of our pio neer prospectors, ami was one of the first to look favorably upon Globe District. In that section, whore he has resided for some year-, helm- a i reputation for quiet and grnilcmanly deportment rsreiy attained iv if. , men, and his heretofore unq-K . integrity leads us to believe hi -t .' - meat that he did the shooting in defense and after unbearable pn.u,. t tioa. The victim, while generally well thought of among ni acquaint ances, seems to have been a man of j uncontrollable passionaiM persistent obstinacy, and there seems little doubt that Mr. Holmes will be acquitted by the authorities. All Tor Swart. Our ssecial correspondent trom Wilcox writes U3 that " Hon. l . W. Stewart, our gallant candidate for Delegate to Congress will go out of his home district with a practically unanimous vote." When a man stands so well at home he cannot help but run well ia other localities. Prof. Fisher arrived from Tomb stone yesterday and will give a series of cosearti bsfora If avmg for Loj An- gilSI.
