James E. Roberts, Indian Agent.

We are positively informed that James F.. Roberts, United States Indian agent for the White mountain reservation, has writ ten to Washington that ourself and others have entered into a conspiracy to get him removed, and, in doing this, he is playing the role of wilful or ignorant liar. While believing he was an honest agent and act ing for the best public interests, our hearty and unasked support was given him {: when we became convinced that he was not the one, nor doing the other, we, in be- half of the public welfare, exposed him for what the public generally believe him to be, and did it in the most conspicuous manner both in Arizona and at Washing ton. Nothing was done in secret. Hay ing what we believed ample evidence of his bad conduct, we gave it to the public and his superiors. We have no doubt but it Is impossible for James E. Roberts to understand how any man or men can do the public a service without the hope Of gain or being prompted by mean motive.
 While MT. Roberts was repeatedly re- ported to us as being a simpleton or fool, we thought them defects for which he is uOJ dccOunJdDle, ana cnarlCaDly made no mention of them; but when reports of his attempts to eXtort money for doing a ser vice his superiOrs directed him to do in the line of his official duty, came to us as they did, we naturally concluded he pos sessed elements of character undeserving of the mantle of charity. Now he has ad- ded to that reputation by writing himself down liar, and inducing us to publish him as such. We may yet print what w. B. Hugus stated was Roberts views about the value of a license as an Indian trader at San Carlos, and also some further no- tions of his regarding the favors at his dis posal. If Roberts thinks he can excuIpate himself of the charges in connection with the reduction of White mountain reserva- ton by writing lies to Washington or else where, he is welcome to that line of de- fense, and we will join issue with him in that or any other phase of the case to which THE CITIZEN has referred.

To the People of Arlzona.

DEIIEVING THAT GOVERNMENT ID is a growth and that we have arrived at that state in which change IS necessary and can be effected in our Territorial Gov -ernment, feel it my duty to take the field for the accomplishment of this purpose The ignorance the General Government has shown as to our condition and neceS~ sites, and disregard Of our r;gh.s as men. places the position of the ordinary Dele (beggar) to Congress from this Territory too low to be worthy the dignity of an American citizen. I repeat the following platform of Bly earnest convictiOns:
 Local self government should not only be given as stn inherent right to all loyal citizens, but urged upon them as the only means for the protection of a free govern ment.
 Millions. or ali that is needed from the National Treasury, to defend our people in their inherent rights, and nothing for the establishment of any species of com mercial monopoly.
 |" He that would not work should not eat'
 I announce myself as a candidate for Delegate to Congress at the ensuing No vem Der election, conditioned that all votes cast for meShall be considered instructions to demand the right Of home selt-gOvern- ment, and that perfect protection to our people which can only be secured by d Trans-Continental Railway passin z through our Territory, which would save millions to the United states Treasury by it's construction.
 Should the lntelHgence or the territory indOrSe this sentiment by their votes, l have no doubt the truth and righteousness of our cause will lead us to immediate sue cess. "In the conflict for freedom, it is not numbers or cunning that cOnquers, but rather daring, discipline and judgment combined, and tempered with the con densed fire of faith and intrepid valOr." It is only through suffering that men unite for earnest public action. It seems to me we have suffered enough, and the moment m a1 O gies in private and sectional strife, with no purpose on our part but sending a beggar to a Congress that does not furnish itself the means to understand our necessities or condition, is simply filling a useless and degraded place. The whole matter is in your hands, and I simply urge your earnest and sincere action.

Eastern Elections.

COLUMBUS, O., October 15-The returns look like Democratic majority of 15,000 on the State ticket. The Republicans elect CongreSsmen in the Eighth, Tenth, Fifteenth, Sixteenth and Nineteenth dis tricts-the latter Garfield's. The other thirteen districts are Democratic.
 OMAHA, NEE, October I5.-The re- publican state ticket is elected by nearly 1000 majority.

The other dis tricts are claimed by the Democrats, al- though it is thought in several it is very close, and the official figures may change the result as stated. It is impossible now to give the complexion of the legislature, but the indications are that the Indepen- dents will hold the balance of power.
 MARSHALLToN, IOWA, October I5.-Re- turns from 92 counties show @ Republican majority of 5000 in excess of the majority of last year.

THE SITUATION IN KANSAS.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The present year is one of almost
unparalleled calamity to our State.
Disasters have come in groups. One
calamity has followed on the heels Of
another, and one has added to the Sc
verify Of another. On the heels of
the great financial disaster, of which
we bore our full share, came first,
drought, then locusts. The financial
explosion Frustrated all business and
unsettled all values. Everything was
at a standstill, and our only hope was
that a plentiful harvest would coun-
teract the influence of disasters. But
a plentiful harvest has been denied us
when we looked to it as one source Of
relief: There is no Disgusting the fact
that it is sore disappointment. To
many it is an almost irreparable loss,
Neither can we disguise the fact that
the newer portions of our State are
cut off even from supplies of bread
and must depend upon the generosity
of those more highly favored.-Rev.

larvae with hoe handle until break
fast. The forenoon is devoted to wa

the evening favorite occupation is
sitting on the fence figuring how
much they would have made had it
not been for the bugs; and, after a
brief season Of devotion at the shrine

HOW 1T is IN TEXAS Il

The Wise county Guard says: Last
Monday, as we were coming from
Aurora, a brisk norther struck US
and we noticed just above our head a
shower of grasshoppers that more
resembled snow storm than any
thing else, riding on the wings Of the
wind" going south.
The Austin Statesman says: We
yesterday met Mr.. S. Spears, of Liano,
who reports that the forepart Of last
week some eighteen or twenty Indians
came within eighteen or twenty miles
of Liano, and killed three men, who
were herding or driving cattle near
Cole Creek. The Indians then left,
taking with them about twenty head
Of saddle horses. Mr.. Spears says
the Indians are getting quite choice
in their selection of stock Of late, and
only take saddle horses.

FEMALE TIXINGS.

Editors Woman's Journal:
Your correspondents are having
trouble about name for new gar
ment. For two years, except in hot
weather when I wanted as little COW
ering as possible on shoulders or arms,
I have worn the article they wish to
designate. Like old King George
with the apple in the dumping, every
one who has seen it has asked, GLOW
do you get inr' The frequency of
the question named it for me and I
call it "getin." I do get into it
without difficulty, and once in, am
covered from the wrists to the neck
and ankles, and have no useless dra-
perry. Then, with a drilling waist,
cut somewhat like corsets and furnish
ed with broad straps, resting just
where a mans suspenders rest, and d.
vided in front, as they are, a bit of
tape on each side at the lower edge,
to which I attach rubber stocking sus-
penders, which tie with tapes to loops
on the stockings, I am ready for
skirts, which I pin to the waist, pre-
ferring pins to buttons.
Thus all my clothes rest just where
men have theirs supported, !. e., on
the shoulders above the joint, having
this free. With skirts that never
come below the instep and are not
unnecessarily wide or heavy, this
dress is as nearly healthful as the
customs of society will permit.
AS for the undergarment, if othe1
folks are going to adopt it, it should
have a name by which it can b.
generally known. Any one is vel
come to my name, and I am willing
to adopt another, but not "chemiloon.
The word is one Of the ugliest I hav'
ever seen. 1t is too long, and tn
ending is suggestive Of horrible sound
heard near lonely lakes. I have lail
at midnight in a lonely cabin, listen
ing to the hooting of looms and owls
the believing Of bears and howlin|
Of wolves, all mingled in hideou
chorus, and I object to the introduc
ton of another loon into the language
If we want to keep near our OLE
name, why not call the thing chem
This would be a.. distinctive appella
ton, but if a longer word is wante'
add some short syllable, for instanc

THE RlSOOKLYN SCANDAL,

Mr.. Beecher returned to Brooklyn
last week, and appeared at the Fri
day evening prayer meeting. Plym-
outh church was packed, and the
welcome accorded the returned pas
tor was very hearty and enthusiast
tic one. On Sunday the church was
again filled to its utmost capacity to
hear Mr.. Beecher's first sermon,
thousands of persons being unable to
gain admittance. Very evidently,
Plymouth Church and the city Of
Brooklyn have not lost faith in this
man who stands so terribly, if not
falsely, accused.
On Saturday Mr.. Beecher appear
ed before the Kings County Grand
Jury, and swore to the talsity Of
Tilton's and Moulton's accusations,
as made in their statements declaring
them to be untrue and that he believ-
ed them to be maliciously intended to
defame him. Indictments were found
against both Moulton and Tilton on
the charge Of maliciously libeling
Mr.. Beecher, and both were after
wards arrested, and held to bail in
the sum of $4,000 each for their ap-
pearance to answer to the charge.
The array Of counsel is remarkably
strong, and indicates that both sides
are terribly in earnest. On behalf of
Mr.. Beecher, Senator Roscoe Conk-
ling, of New York, has accepted a
retainer, and will sum up the case.
VIM. NJ. Evarts, B. F. Tracy, John
K. Porter, w. o. Bartlett, John Ora
ham and T. S. Sherman will assist
Mr.. Conkling. 1t is said that Tilton
and Moulton will be represented by
Senator Carpenter, Of Wisconsin,
Gen. Butler, Judge Fullerton, Daniel
Dougherty and David Dudley Field
These are among the giants ofthe bal
of this country. This case, it is said,
will be pressed to an early issue
Tilton's suit against Mr.. Beecher goes
over until January, and perhaps
longer.
Already eleven libel suits, involv'
ing claims for nearly a million dol
liars, have resulted from this scandal
and there will probably be more yet
