GOV. N'o01MIcK's MESSAGE.


Gov. Mccormick Message TO the Fifth
legislative Assembly of Arizona opens with
the announcement that, during the past yesr,
there has been grear increase in the popusa-
lion Of the Territory. several new mining and
agricultural settlements having sprung INTO
existence, and that the taxable property - es-
umated at one fourth more than IL was "a 1851.
The Governor then refers to the hostility Of
The Apache Indians, and recommends that the
United States Government be advised 70 re-
cruit one or more volunteer regimsuoe for
Indian warfare in the Territory. Frisudsy
Indians, he thinks, should be entitled to the
same protection from the laws as other persons
owing allegiance to the Government enjoy,
and all tribes should be held responsible TO the
laws of the United States, except when is
otherwise provided In treaties. Or the Pacicc
Railroad, he says that its construction through
the Territory, besides stimulating immigration
and adding TO the wealth of the country, would
be equal to the sending there Of dozen regi-
ments Of troops for the preservation Of order
and securing 10 the Government the revenues
the Territory will abundantly return.
The mines of Arizona have, during the past
having been opened since last year. The
agricultural prospects OF the Territory are
good; the cereals attain q perfect growth in
most sections, and the vegetables compare
favorably with those in any other part OF the
country. The military is supplied with gram
raised IN the Territory, and but little -four has
been brought from abroad during the past year.
Purchasing, as far as At mas been tired: has
so-called desert may be made to produce crops
hat would astonish the world If supplied with
water by system of artesi wells. The mail
facilities throughout the Territory are satisfac-
tory; news from all parts of the world is now
received when it is only ten days old. The
Governor closes his message with numerous
recommendations tou hing educatianal matters,
the sale of liquors to Indians, the erection of a
prison, &c, &c, and congratulations on ac-
count OF the general improvement IN social
life, ana the material prosperity enjoyed by the
people.

Oeen an open question whether full pay WAS

oucuon OF time and wages was 10 be propor
nona'- Al the Springfield A-mory, Colonel
Den'on' commanding the post, construed the
ID" 10 mean that the men working eight hours
Were 70 receive the same wages as before for
ten hours labor. Gen. Rodmau. Commanding
Al hock Island, Ill, took q contrary yisw. and
applied to Gen. Dyer, chief of the Ordnance
Bureau, for instructions. Gen. Overs con
struction, which was approved by Secretarv
Schoneid, was that If workmen wished 10 nsr-
form ten hours labor In each day thev conla
90 90, but must be credited on the roll for EXTRA
labor. Similar instructions were transmitted
70 the Springfield Armory, and all the armo.
Iers " no chose 70 continue work until 6 O'CLOCK
p. m. mad the opportunity. The offer was.
however, generally declined, the men fearing
mat by accepting 1t they might unfavorablv
aneet the decision which they expected, that
elsnf hours and full pay should 60 together.
oince august ~, the question Of wages being
In dispute, many Of the workmen hsve declined
70 receive pay, and only recently has any
money been disoursed. BY the construction

ohciai notice Of such decision had bean "a.
ceiyed at the Ordnance Bureau, and the ruI,n,
o. Secretary Sehoneld conrin ues in force. Con.
gress VIII now need 10 pass some explanatory
resolution setting forth the construction % h.
put upon the law. Oddly enough, we fiod tina,
Members themselves differ as to their interpre.
aton Of the meaning Of the law on this point
TINS fact Is probably due 70 the haste with
which the measure was passed, allowing NO
opportunity for explanatory debate. From
what we can gather, however, there is little
doubt that the majority construe il an meaning
10 give full days wages for eight hours work.
and we anticipate that the supplementary
legislation upon the matter will be to that
effect.
