Rise! If the Past detain you,
Her sunshine and storms forget;
No chains so unworthy to hold you
As those of a vain regret.
Sad or bright, it is lifeless ever.
Cast its phantom arms away,
Nor look bavk but to learn the lesson
Os a nobler strife to day.
The future has deeds of glory,
Os honor—God grant it may;
But your arm. will never be stronger
Or the need so great as to-day.
The congressional committee sent,
out by the central government to
investigate Arizona and New Mex
ico to see if these far-off satrapies
are sufiiciently civilized to be ad
mitted into the Union, should be
invited to visit Prescott. While
the Courier is not in love with the
spirit which prompted the sending
of these gentlemen out here, all
fitting courtesies should be shown
them when they arrive, and a visit
to Prescott—the Athens as well as
the mining hub of Arizona—would
go far toward causing them to make
a favorable report. Should they
be suffering from the free silver
ague, no effort should be spared to
show them that gold mines largely
predomirate in Arizona and her
proper classification is a gold region
which is a fact. They should also
be shown that there is far less crime
and immorality in proportion to the
population in Arizona than there is
in sections inhabited by people who
have caused this smelling committee
to be sent out to stick their enquir
ing snouts into our affairs. Won
der what smelling committee in
vestigated the original thirteen
colonies to find out whether they
were lit for self-government or to
so-government and establish
a great nation 1 Arizona today is
peopled by an identical class of
hardy pioneers as those who first
settled the eastern cc.ist of Ameri
| c.a. It really makes a horse-sense
; I man very tired to think over these
l J
matters. There, was nothing off
color about sending Blount out to
investigate Hawaii, but to think
that native-born citizens of the
United States are to be compelled
to take the same medicine from the
same spoon is rather discouraging.

Congress will meet in 1
session on August 4. So fir from
being urged to call congress togeth
er at an early day, th>» president is
assured by his immediate advisors
as well as by vis'ting democrats from
a distance, that the time has been
most fitly chosen. The president’s
announcement, it is»gre<d on every
hind has already had an excellent
effect on the country. The outflow
of gold has in a measure been check
ed, the leading banks are organizing
for .mutual and general protection
and monejed men hoth east and
west are plucking up confidence
again. Local influences are at
work supplementary to these The
president himself is bringing to
bear upon senators and representa
tives the necessity of prompt reme
dial financial legislation, and these
influences cannot be expected to
hastily bear fruit. Some of the
ablest advocates of Mr. 'Cleveland s
financial views are now abroad on
the way to Europe.
An irrigation meeting, the prin
cipal object of which is to consider
the problem of water storage, has
been called to convene in Phoenix
at the opera house on the 15th of
July. The call for the meeting
confines those entitled to partici
pate to residents of the Salt River
valley. The Tribune would respect
fully suggest to the gentlemen hav
ing the matter in charge, to make
it a Territorial affair. This ques
tion of water storage is one that is
of vital importance to all sections
of Arizona, and is at present engag
ing the earnest attention of those
who are in any way interested in
the progress of the Territory. If
the invitation is made general to all
parts of Arizona it is more than
likely that there would be a large,
attendance from the other oounties
—Florence Tribune.
Don’t forget that the way to ere
ate hard times is to hide away every
dollar that you can get. Hold fast
to it and urge everybody else to do
the same. Don’t pay your debts,
sr that your creditors may not be
able to pay theirs, and with
little or no money in circulation
you may bo able to bring about
times so ’‘hard” that quartz bran
will be used for flour. Chinese
money is made square with a hole
in it to be strung on a wire,, in a
nation of non-progressive, half
starved misers. American money i s
made round, made to roll and be
kept rolling, constantly agitating
the channels of a healthy circula
te and aiding in the happiness of
all. We shall soon see how many
there are of these Chinamen born
in America.—Ex.
With the increased energy in
gold mining which has been iucited
by the low price of silver, Arizona
is rapidly changing her place to the
first rank of gold producing regions.
The great quantities of gold coming
from the Harqua Hal a district and
the discovery and working of even
a better gold bearing district in the
Superstition mountains, together
with the revival of mining in snch
old gold producers as the Vultnre,
Vekol, Peck, etc., and the new re
gion of White Hills, will no <lo»;b>
measure up to four nr five times the
amount produced the last year, and
even yet we are merely on the
threshold of our importance as min
eral producers. When silver be
comes worth mining Arizona will
some day astonish the world with
her out put.—Herald.
Among the Vines.
Early in the week 'Gel. Harley
Fry hitched up the tvo nags and
started on a »rip of busim-ss, health
and pleasure to the S indy an 1 tie
mines of the Aubrey district. Ho
brought back with him a number of
tine specimens of gold, silver and
copper ore and is enthusiastic over
the mineral showing of that section
and the hospitality of the people
along the Sandy. The Copperhead
mine owned by Dr. E W. Smith,
Ed. Williams and Ed.
continues to produce a fine lof. nf
rich ore. It will be renumbered
that the owners had a lot of ore
from this mine worked at the samp
ler a couple of weeks ago that
sampled over SSOO to the ton and
they now have another lot out.
E. Ogden and Jdm Barnes are
taking $450 gold ore from the Ben
Butler mine and working it in an
arastra.
John B. Whitfield is working tht
Compulsion mine and has made a
strike of ore that witt run S4OBO $e
the ton. Th ; s body of ore was un- ,
covered close to old working on the
Horn Silver and where it had been
walked over for years, tint 'there it
was in plain’ sight waiting to be

pending a sale to some Chicago

The Colonel says ttlhe Aubrey
district is bound to come to the
front, that all it needs is men to
take hold and work.—Mohave Mi

Doctor A. J. Chandler’s survey
ing party returned from
reservoir Site, last week. ThejT^ -
report the plan entirely feasible
and say that an immense body of'
water can be stored there at tom
paratively a small cost. A daui
200 feet across a narrow cft&nit
will back up the water for 19J
miles up the river, storing sufficient
water to irrigate the entire Gila
valley, Dr. Chandler contemplates
taking out two eanals from the
proposed reservoir, running, one on
the south side of the Gila, covering
all the fine extent of land in thq
great Casa Grande valley, and thy
other on the north side, watering
all the rich and fertile fruit ao§
south and southeast of Mesa City.

A pretty spectacle: the United
States sending a commission to Eu
rope to ask that country if we may
coin our own silver into oar owa
money for our own use. It is a
braen insult to the patriotism and
independence of the fathers of the
revolution. It is an insult to every—
patriot in America. Where is the
boasted manhood of our country
that it does not rise up arrd rebuke
the that dare do this thing?
Some people have no manhood.
You might pour a pint of lard on
their head and let a hound dog lick
it off, and they wouldn’t resent the
insult.—Ex.
Cattle haven’t wintered well in

There is pet haps no single indus
try in the United States in J which
more people aro interested than in
live stock. There is hardly a far
mer in the land that does hot de>

or hogs.
