said that he wanted to buy Some real estate. He
wanted that should show him where was tho

acres in the vest half of the southwest quarter
of Section 8, 33, II. Mr. Dostwick wanted that

it. found the owno1, David Hess. and got
them together, but soon found that NIr. Bost-

my fer.. es or any othor improvements that were
put on the 80 acrcs- f. B. Farmer, 3. F. Smith,
and myself paid for al those improvements.
Mr: David Hess, OF Naporville, I know we'll,
and know TINT he would not give us
deeds il there had been contract cut.
As far as blr: B. F. Downing and Paul Cornell
are concerned, they never had any interest in
h1r. Bostwick often told me what friend Paul
Cornell had been to him Mr. Dostwick told mo
all about his big mansion at Alton, and that the
building Of that had caused his ruin.
Bostwick came to Chicago poor man, staid here
four or fire months. aud died poor man. The
80 acres that Mr.. Bostwick talked OF buying.
when ho died, would not have brought what ho
talked OF paying for it. Three years after his
death, sold some of tho Same p.operty-C2k

was talling Of paying for it. Talk about fraud
in settling Bostssicks estate, TO the beet Of my
belief, there was no chance for fraud. / believe
that Paul Cornell did all that he could to help
the poor widow after Mr. Bostwick's death.

Christians, who joined them, a. they considered

REVOLVING PICTURE.

The expositions of systematic brutality and fraud, that have re- gently overtaken manager and subordinates of the San Francisco Alnlshouse and Industrial School, as we'll as those of the State Asy- Ium for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind-are most revolting. "1t pains and sickens us," says the Chronicle, "to listen 10 these s0r- rowful tales of neglect, abuse and starvation, growing out of the greed and cruelty of man. It seems as though this devilish lust for geld is drying up the very fountains of justice, and that there is no such thing as Christian charity. From even the dumb comes the voice of waiiing; the deaf cry for succor; the blind for kinder treatment The poor, the destitute: God-forsaken pau per boys and girls in correctional institutions. the sick from hOspi- taIS-all give utterance to the same complaints, and all because those placed in authority over them are 'Overbearing, inSolent and crueE,' all greedy for gain.

ROOM FOR THE PROPHET !

Brigham Young is to settle in Arizona, and bring d number ofhis followers. The ". y. Herold states that he will pitch his tents on the valley lands lying along the San Francisco river. This stream is a tributary of the Salado or Salt river. Judging from the vol ume of water which the Salt car ries, one ofits branches must be a very small stream, and hence we conclude that his colony will not be large enc. But there is water enough in the Co., Or0do between the Black Canyon and Yuma to support population of millions. We invite the atten- tion of the distinguished Mormon leader and colonist to MeSe fer tile bottoms, now lying waste.

PEACE ?-"LET US HAVE / PEACE"

/ The glad tidings of peace with / the Apaches have again resound- ed in Arizona. For twenty years, and at the cost of nearly 10U of their lives, have the whites asked for that blessing! But all in vain, until Sunday April 9th, 1873. Although but few Arizo- mans have faith in an Apache peace, let us hope that this one will be permanent.
 On the 9th page of this issue we publish the General Orders of Gen, Crook on the occasion of the last peace. In his "Orders No. 12," as we understand it, the hos tile Apaches have everything their own way until "a sufficient time shall have elapsed to enable the friends of any renegades still at large to bring them upon their proper reservation" This may be well, but in the meantime the white inhabitants of the Territory have to suffer.
 No later than last week. in the Mcdowell Canyon, not very far from the post of that name, the Apaches murdered a Mexican.
 Our idea of making peace with the Apache Indians is either to force them all upon reserva- tions, and keep them there by force of arms, or send them to the happy hunting grounds.
 We cannot understand why the Modocs are to be e.ctermin0te9 for the murder of general and two peace commissioners, while Apa- ches, who have broken treaty after treaty of peace, and murder ed during twenty years, nearly C thousand white men of Arizona, are treated with consideration.

Sconchin, the h. dian who killed Commissioner Meacham, was shot and scalped by the infuriated soldiers. A team ster had been killed by the Mo- does just outside the lava-bed. It is supposed that the Modocs will join with the Pitt river Indians, in which case protracted Indian war is inevitable. The Vice Pres ident declares that the Modocs must be eXterminated at any cost. The feeling caused in Govern ment circles by the shocking mas sacre of Gen. Canby and the Con- missioners is profound, and may lead to radical change in the method of treating the warlike Indians. The Secretary of War has ordered 800 rifles to be dis tributed among the frontiersmen of Oregon. LATER The ModOcs had taken refuge in a cave six miles from the Lava Beds, far more inaccessible than their first position. Scarfaced Charley had been slain in single combat and scalped, by Sergeant Lee. The artillery will have to make a cir cult of forty miles to reach the Modocs' new retreat. The Pres ident had been overwhelmed by letters and telegrams. begging him not to allow the ungodly press to swerve him from his phil anthropic peace policy (!)-The recent troubles at Grand Pa rish, Louisiana, arose from the distribution by the parish officers of arms to several hundred ne- groes The movement was insti- gated by the Kelloggites.
