The wagons they uao for freighting In this country nro Immense , nnd frequently there nro 10 span of nuilos in fr nt of them. Two or three nagons are drawn along at once , ono behind the other. aftT thonifnncr of n railroad train. The wagons behind the first ono nro called "back-ncti'in" ' wagons , nnd nro owiploU' , each ono having n barrel of unter on either side. Loads of copper from the mines nro thus hauled to the rnllrond Mix tions , the trains taking back mcrchandla from the states. It aoems to me thn ono of those wagon boxes will hold r much as n umnll houso. Of course , freigh ing in this rrny Is slow , but It Is vcr. sure , nnd the minors nro bound to go their goods in time , but frequently ngoo deal of patience is required. K\OIJ lliin costs n good price in n mining regio necessarily , and fruit brings n sum c money that eastern farmers could ecareo ly realize.

The trai leads down the eidca of n mountain xrhicl is very stoop nnd rocky. In this vallo ; the Aborigines have n nice home , whcr < they ralso good crops nud remain unmo loated , our troops never having found 1 necessary to bent up their habitations o : war upon thorn in nny way. These hnbi tationo are mostly in n deep canon o Catnract crook , which rises in the Bil Williams mountain. Thcso Indians nro very peaceful , elect their own chief , ami scorn to progress well onongh. There Is u conotdorablo strip of good farming lam" along the crook on which they live , whlcl is cultivated most successfully by the Supios. They sometimes leave their so eluded retreat for the purpose of bring ing In dried pcnchcs nnd dressed duor skins , which they barter for cotton goods nnd other atulla. Eipccinlly do they drive good bargains with the Mcqi Indians , whrso pueblo is nbovo them it : Arizona. Any onu who supposes for nr instant that n red man does not knov how to make n good trade is mistaken From early youth they are trained to make the most of their worldly goods nnd look put for their own intereats. A buck skin in their hands has a vnluo which i white man iiovcr dreamed of. and it cer tainly is nstoniahing to see how soon they learn the value of money. When a territory is organized , which Is way in advance of the tide of immigrn lion , it takes n long liino to got a stnrt , nnd this is trio ; In regard to Arizona 'Iho Indians , of course , kept nway mnny sottlore , thr-ir cruelties and devastations being of the most pronounced character In ISliO 1 wni in the territory , nnd traveling between Tucaon nnd Camr Goodwin , wliuii n bind of Apaches swooped down on n station on the old overland road , known ns Trcs Alamos , 01 the San Pedro , nnd got p.wny with all o the stock. Some of the sottlern wor shot , but before a person could fair ! ; turn around the damage was done , nnd the Indiana were oft" among the rock laughing at the distress they had caused Fortunately the pirty 1 was with saved their animals , but the stngo company lost quite n number of horeea.

Bnnighl up on the banks of the Mo- npngahol.i tlver , In western Ponnsylva- nin , I rciutitnbcr when Ohio wna n fron Her state , Among my earliest recollec tions nro thoao of the singe conches of Stockton nnd Stokes on the old nnlionnl turnpike , between the express line bo twcon lUltimoro nnd the west nnd smith west. Trains of the white covered emi grant wngonn en route to Ohio and Indi ana were noxer out of tight. Later 1 remember vividly what n furore the no- couuls of Iho wonderful fertility of Iho prairies of Illinois crealcd nnd the exodus of settlers from western Pennsylvania. A few abort Intervening > c ra , still n mere boy , I journojcd on horseback from Iho Motion- gnheln to the br.nka of the Illinois river , bearing on my perton the money to pay for 1100 head of cattle. The money was in bills of the Monongaholn bank of Hrownnvillo , nnd Iho Farmers and Dro- vera bank of Wnynusburg , Pi The is- cues of Ihoao bnuka were current in Illinois uhoro the bills of eastern banks , and uf all but ono bank in I'tttsbiirg , wera nt a discount. At Wheeling , W. Valaecund Ohio bank nolea to jiiy my way acrocn the Rt.\to , nud repented the exchange for Indiana. Tlinnk God , the day tif wildcat banks is gone1 The [ 100 head of cattle had been fed on the cheap Illinois corn , then nftai used ns fuel by Iho farmers of the prmrlo coun try , nnd were driven to Philadelphia. From the time the grass wns , ns the funnel n used to say , "knco high to n duck , " in the early spring till late in Iho fall when the corn is ripe , droves of cat tle , sheep , hogs , mules nnd horacn mnde endless proccstion along the eld drove rend ncrosn Greene and Kayotto cmmtiea , I'cnnsylviuim. But the cowboys of those days wna nn hiuublo Individual who trudged on foot either in the lend or bringing up the ronr of the drovo. Ho wna nrmod with n long whip made of plaited lonthor atrips fastened to n ohort hickory stick. The whip lash from n half inch in diameter nt ono end gradu ally swelled to moro than an inch nnd ta pered to nu eighth of an inch nnd turinl- tinted in n silk "cracker. " The hickory whip stick wns about two nnd n half fcot long , tapering from nn Inch nt the butt to n half inch nt the top. IIow nn export cow boy could hnndle ono of thcRoinalrumonla ot torture ! Many of tnem were ambidextrous. Swinging the long lash above their headn witli n quick jerk they would produce a report as loud as thnt of n huntsman's ' rillo. In deed thu aimiliarity of sound gava rice to the saying : "Whip like report of the Kentucky rillo. " Tao ordinary drive of a drove of cattle was from six lo ten milcB a day. A long and tudioun journey from Illinois to Phlladolphin ! But the con boy was a superior being ( o the hog driver. The latter was a dfapiacd orea- luro. The former boya always saluted them with "S'long ! forty conla a day nni no dinner ! " Toll O. rn SlorlcH. Madison ( Neb ) Chroniclu. The big corn story linr Is abroad in the land. One sf our South Plait country exchanges gets off the following : "Tho ll'tlo son of Mr. B , living west of town , got a ladder the other dny nnd stood it up against n cornstalk. He then took a saw nnd climbing up i.bont twenty feet lo the first car , ho proceeded to straddle the car and saw It oil' , but un fortunately ho sawed between himself and the stalk , and was thrown lo the ground , breaking his arm. " That's the story. Now , then , oomobody hold our coall Wo didn't intend mentioning a fact that his como lo our knowledge , but when n South Platte prevaricator at- tompta to down this aeclion on ( ho corn question , wo will rend him facts. List Saturday , while in conversation with Mr. Ed Jenkins , ( f Kalamazoo , Iho reporter learned that nn ilicit distil lery was in operation in one of the ravines near his residence , and the government WHS therefore being defrauded out of a largo amount of rprenuo. It appears that a man ar rived in that neighborhood some iimo since , and one night , with the aid of a gang of labirers , dynamite , crowbars , etc , ho succeeded in prying oil'a kernel of corn from n big pri/.o ear in I' ' ] I'D Hold. It wns then loaded on to.x atorm-boat nnd hauled into the ravine. 'I'ho ' man then bored into the kernel of corn with n two- inch augur , put in a faucet , and now has nn unlimited supply of pure corn jnlco on till ) , Thu revenue ollicera should look into this matter. When n ( irot clnsa lie is to bo written up commnnd tin ( o Iho nvcrago South Pintle editor , but when you want to read the broad gungo truth , our little George Washington pencil can dish it up in quarter flections.
