PERSONAL R. Platt, Esq, well known
in this portion of Arizona for success in
legal practice and as mail contractor, left
by Mondays stage to San Diego, en- route
to his old stamping-ground in western
New York, where he left for Idaho in 1862.
We expect him back in the spring with
legal female partner e. Mr.. John Pierson,
the great flour man of Sonora, and whose
brands are familiar as household words in
this section, arrived in Tucson last Sunday
evening, and left again Wednesday. Four
others accompanied him up, aud when
near the Monument, they happened to be
the means of recapturing eight mules two
or three Apaches were driving away from
some Mexicans. Mr.. P. noted some freight
on the road, besides his own. Mr.. +. M.
Austin, post trader at Grant, returned on
Monday, after several days in Tucson. He
is living illustration of the salubrious
nature of the climate thereaways. Says he
will increase the THE CITIZEN list at that
post, and has cart-blanche to that end.
Capt. Crandall returned, on Monday,
from weeks inspecting tour to Maricopa
and says he was treated finely by Messrs.
Moore 81 Carr DR. Wilbur, of the Pimo
Reservation, gave us call-correct; the

Indians on the Rampage Again !--
Thirty.Odd Head of Cattle Knn
Of.-One Man Killed, and Two
Wounded.
The freight train of Tully, Ochoa
& belong, en- route from Tucson to
Camp Goodwin, when thirty -odd miles
east of this place, had over thirty oxen
run off early on Sunday morning,
the 18th, by about seventy-five we'll
armed Indians. The train men over
took the enemy after daylight. A
sharp fight ensued between the forces,
in which one man Martin Rivera was
shot through the head and killed, and
two others wounded-(Theodoso Cara
baial, in arm with an arrow, through
the thigh with ball, and N. Baragan
slightly. The savages got away with
their plumber unscathed, as supposed,
in a northerly direction. 1t was an
unusually bold attack, for there were
about thirty men well-armed and used
to Indian warfare with the train. The
scene Of the affair was on the South
ern overland mail route, and but few
miles from the place where the stage
was taken in last August and all OH
board murdered.
Mr.. belong happened along on his
return from Apache Pass, and brought
the wounded men in to Tucson, where
proper attendance will no doubt soon
bring them out again.
We are sorry the loss should have
fallen on so enterprising firm as the
above-named; it would seem as tho
they had paid quite their share of trib-
ute to our savage foe. We have not
the figures, but presume they have lost
within the past few years not far from
100000. Only about one year ago,
they lost an entire train at Canyon del
Orc, between here and Camp Grant.

THE New York Democrat expresses
the opiuion that if Gen. Sheridan, ''Little
Pbil.n as his admirers are wOnt to call him,
had reached the Prussian headquarters on
the / It'll inst, he must have painfully un-
derstood the very pointed and soldierly
address of King William. 1t was a scorch-
ing proclamation for the monarch OF a
European nation to throw out in the very
face of an assumed soldier of the free Re
public of America, says the Democrat
and surprisingly in contrast with the con-
duct of that soldier when in command OF
a Northern invading army. The army
of Prussia was on the territory OF
France, and looking ahead to a march
of invasion. For the guidance of
all, the King proclaims that the war is
not upon the people, but against soldiers
that the Prussian army is not to destroy
and plumber, but only 10 beat back the
bristlinp columns of frances soldiery.
How refreshing is this humane order
when compared with the whitening, de-
s+rovinc raids of Sheridan through the
Valley of the Shenandoah, In bus own
Country. and among his own people. His
war was not then upon the soldiers-but
!, was upon anything and everything that
came within his reach. If Sheridan can
profit any by these humaneand Christian
like military operations of the Prussian
king then his mission abroad will moi
have been all in vain.

Federal troops to different points in the
State, not to enforce the law and pro-
tect the people, but to uphold Gov.
Holden in his illegal course. This was
the Presidents idea of his duty in
North Carolina 1t does not agree with
the declaration made in the Iowa case.
But in the one instance bondholders were
to be protected under the law; in the 9TH
er. men who differed with the President
in political principles were to be trampled
upon for party purposes. Gov. Holden
has also declared, through his organ at
Raleigh, that the President will not en-
force the DEGREES hof arUnited States
Judge if they should be adverse to his &C
ton in the habeas corpus cases. This
we take to be speaking by the card.
The Governor would hardly make
such an announcement without facts
to sustain it. no Such course
lwould not only be childish, but it would
4 injure the Governors game in North
| Carolina. If, therefore, Gen. Grant has
promised Gov. Holden, to support him,
even against the decision of a court OF
the United States, what supreme balder
dash does it make of the Dix letter
Further than this, the Iowa epistle is {
direct insult to the people of the United
States when. interpreted by such facts q
these we have given. In all the South
ern States Gen. Grant has suffered tn
Federal forces to be used for politica
purposes, and has enforced or trample'

and now as mere blind, this Dix lette
is flung into the eyes of the people of th

GRANT AND THE ENFORCEMENT
OF THE LAWS. .rsn.r.. ..r~-

There is some difficulty in Iowa in re-
Iation to the collection of a tax to. pay
railroad bonds issued by certain counties
in that State. The people claim that
these bonds were issued without due re-
gard to law, and in direct violation of
the Constitution of Iowa. The question
got into the courts and finally the United
States Courts have decided that Y the
counties issuing the bonds must levy and
collect tax to pay these bonds. A re-
port has been circulated that in case the
people refused to pay the tax, the United
States authorities would not use force to
compel them to respect and obey the law.
The attention of Grant was called to this
report by Gen. Dix on behalf of the
bondholders, and he replied as follows:
WAsB1yeToN, d. c., June 20, 1870
To Gen. J. A. Dix: Dear Sir: Yours of
the 18th instant, stating that the report
had been circulated in Iowa that had
stated that ! would not enforce the laws
for the collection of the taxes to pay
railroad bonds, if resisted by the citizens,
is received. 1t is hardly necessary for me
to deny such statement. would hard
" invite community to resist laws which
/ am sworn to execute. do, however,
emphatically deny the report and state
further, that if it becomes my duty to
use force TO execute the laws in Iowa, or
any other State, / shall do SO without
hesitation.
Very respectfully, your obcdient ser
want, U. 5. GRANT. .
This is all well enough. 1t presents
one view of the subject. But there is
another, which Grant does not present,
but which the Philadelphia Age does
present, as follows: Grant presents him
self in the attitude of an officer executing
the laws, under his oath, and employing
force to do so when necessary. But the
people remember numerous cases when
he EMPLOYED, or suffered others to use the
military power of the nation for a far diff
ferent purpose. Gen. Ames, when COM
mander of military division, and Pro
yisional Governor of Mississippi used
the troops under his command to force q
negro into the Senate of the United States,
and also place his own name upon the list
of members of that body. This was
Gen. Grants idea of the enforcement of
the law in that case, and he suffered
Gen. Ames to use the army to deprive
the people of their political rights. Again
Gen. Grant sent Federal troops into
North Carolina to aid Gov. Holden, when
the latter was in open rebellion to both
State laws and Federalpower. Gov. Hol-
den caused men to be arrested for partisan
purposes without due authority of law,
and when writ of habeas corpus was Is
sued, refused to obey that sacred writ.
To this course of action the people OBJ
iected, and Gen. Grant dispatched
