THOSE REWARDS.

aaLsr a a a
 The reward of $500 offered by Gov. Safford for the capture of the Lumley murderers, was promptly paid by him to Sheriff Goodwin, on presentation of the facts relative to the capture of one and the death of the other. MT. J. A. Moore, of the late firm of Moore & Carr, also paid the re- ward offered by them of $1O0 for the recovery of the stage stock stolen-$50 to MT. Horn and the other to MT. Buckhardt. Messrs. M. H. Horn, H. s. Gray, J. Buck hardt and Andrew Tyner, have received and been sent their re spective portions of the Cover nor's reward. We can but admire this manly action of the Cover nor and of MT. Jas. A. Moore, which is in marked contradis- tinction to that of MT. Murphy (partner of the murdered man) who offered a reward of $500 for the arrest and conviction of the murderers; and who now refuses to pay it, as the parties cannot be convicted, both being dead. If MT. Murphy wishes to reinstate himself in the good graces of our people, he should either pay that reward or frankly acknowledge that he never in tended to do SO. 1e- al
 Our citizens are we'll pleased at the action of the officials concern ed in this affair, at the prompt manner in which the rewards were paid, and we congratulate all parties interested on the great CT security felt along the Gila from these Sonora mongrels, who delight, savage-like, in the she'd ding of human blood.

 WASHINGTON, D. C.,
 September 8, 1873. A. J. FINLAY, Mayor of Yuma:
 Sir-Soon after I last wrote you the Commissioner of the General Land Office discovered that the lands, in the disputed tract, upon which School Warrants, sold by California, had been located, were never confirmed by the General Government to that State. This satisfied him that the pur- chasers of said school warrants had no possible claim upon the United States (although they might demand redress from Cali fornia), and he was about sending the map of the proposed town site to MT. Wasson for correction, so as to exclude the Military Reser. vation, when I received yours of August 7th, with petition of citi- zens.
 This petition, asking that the Ferry reservation be restored to the public domain so that it may be included in the Patent for the Town Site, I at once presented to the Secretary of the Interior, to whom it was addressed. !, : He promptly referred it to the Secretary; of War, whom I saw, and that officer forwarded it to General Crook for an official report as,to the merits of the case so far as the military interests of his De- partmentsare concerned.
 If General Crooks report is fa- yoraBlste an abandonment of the r.eseryatipn, the. petition of the ;eitlaens will probably be granted, but the reference to him, and the unayeEiadlIable EalIa eroutine in such cases, win occupy so much time thatyou cannot look ,t far the completion of esRatent for; several months to cens. $ Very respectfully, sl1a at K Q.

In 1866 Mr., RuHals, having purchased the

old furniture and divided it pro rata among
the stockholders a few years previous. The
Durkee House was put in elegant order, and
furnished in frst-class style by Mr. Runals,
and was finally reopened under aattering au-
spices by Mr.. Love, an old hotel man. But
