Young Love lies browsing away to popped death;
Cool shadows deepen across the sleeping face;
So fails the summer with warm, delicious breath;
And what hath autumn to give us in its place? Il
Draw close the curtains of branched evergreen;
Change cannot touch them with fading fingers |

Here the first violets perhaps will bud unseen,
And a dove maybe return to nestle here.

INDIANS AGAIN.

The correspondent of the Alta California, has been interviewing Indian commissioner Smith, from whom he got the following:
 Correspondcnt.-Mr Commissioner, what have you determined 10 do in the matter Of irrigation in AriZona!
 CommissiOner-f only wish I had the $500.
 The truth ls that the Department is actually forced to be extravagant. The government, through the military, puts the Indians on reeer- yations aud says: "stay there and you shall be fed leave and you shall be killed"
 The government says to the Indian commis- sioncr, Provide sustenance-beef, flour, etc.. for the Indians"
 not enough: Congress is furnished annually with estimates t Is easy to show what 1t will cost 10 feed Indians ger oapita; but the appropriations for each year are always too small; the people do not like to hear of deficiencies; cannot feed the Indians"
 But government says: "If you don't feed them they will not stay on the reservation and. we shall have to fight them. It costs more 10 fight them than to feed them, and Is inhumsn"
 So MT. Commissioner is forced to mske con trscts on credit, and so the deficiencies accumu- late, and so the Department is prevented from economizing. Sometimes the Department is yie- iimiZcd by wealty contractors; but none but wealthy contractors can take contracts on credit
 HOW TO MAXI INDIANS sEiF.susrAINisG.
 The true way 70 sustain Indians Is, not to mskc them till the soi but to take the first step In civ ilization-bccome herders of stock. Any one Of the large reservations in Arizona could bc made to raise sheep, goats cattle sufficient to feed all the Indians of that Territory, and with only { slight cost at the outset, compared with the re- sults 10 be attained. Make the Indians raise their own stock. This cau be done with little trouble to the Department and without hali The fnancicr- ing required 10 procure supplies under the pres ent policy. The Indians could soon be made self. sustaining.
 There may be trouble and wrong In the admin Istraton of Indian affairs but the excuse for the same should bc removed first There ought to be good credit established, and then A strict ac- counting. All the records Of the department should be open to ah and every charge should be carefully investigated. The wolves in sheeps' clothing should be unmasked and singled out i; not the whole class denounced.
 There is a great deal of truth and sound sense in the foregoing. One Of Gen Crooks first moves, after having subdued Indians here, was to coax them to become owners of stock, and some of them have now consider able stock. But, it is not going to hurt an Indian to make him work little on gar den patch.
 That clear woman, Mrs. Jane Swiss helm, who has made Indians and their duty study, has, in a recent New York Tribune, an able, logical article upon the subject of forcing Indians to make living out of the soil, which forcing process ought, at once, to be commcnced

MINING MATTERS.

Owners of valuable mines in this and every other district of Arizona will do well to look out for their claims, as, already, some men have placed notices upon old claims, with the view of taking possession of said claims on the 10th day of June next, provided those who lay claim to them are not present and working tbem. X doubt has arisen as to whether Lhe amendment to the law of 1872 does not give old claimants sll of the year ending June 10, 1875, in which to do the necessary work, but, in the absence Of de- cision upon tbis point, the safe way for all is to immediately put $l0 worth Of work upon every claim located prior to the passage of the Congressional mining act of 1872, and SlOO worth of work upon every claim lOcat- ed after the passage of said act. A still bet ter way would be to secure Government patent to all claims upon which sufficient labor and money have been expended.
 Concerning new bills, now before Congress, spectators are moving everything in the in- terest of Wards bill, which is an abomna- tion to all bona file miners and prospectors, but we have hopes that it will be defeated. Should it pass, many poor men DOW engaged in mining and prospecting will have to leave these fields of industry.

 EDITos MINER :--The scout of U. $. sol diers commanded by It Ward, and accom- panied by Capt Rogers, Messrs Stiles, Futile and eight or ten other citizens of this place, which left here eight or ten days since, in search of the Apaches who have been steal ing from and killing people in this vicinity for the last two months, retu<ned this morn- ing.
 They did not meet with favorable oppor- tunity for having fight, but found, in the mountains, some 20 or 30 miles from this town, where an engagement had taken pbsce between U. s. troops and Apaches, in which several Apaches were killed and left on the battle field
 From fresh trails and numerous wigwams seen, the scouts are satisfied therc must be about four or five hundred Apache Indians lurking in the mountains within i5 or 20 miles of Florence. They also believe that there is a band of Apaches in the neighbor- hood of the place above mentioned that have never been upon any reservation.
 The scouts will go out again tomorrow. They came in for supplies and to get their horses shod
 The people here are agitating the question of petitioning for company of soldiers, to be stationed near here to protect them and their property. As the matter now stands, no man, nor his property, is safe two miles from town. It Is not even safe to send s team out for frewood, for every day Apache tracks are seen within mile of town.

POLl7IC.iL.

We are not, like the late lamented Greeley political seer, but can see far enough to dis cover several gentlemen busily and cutely engaged in devising ways and means to bring thems elves prominently before the public as asp ants for the place of delegate to Con gress from Arizona.
 In case the Democracy meet in Territorial convention at PhTnix we look for lively scramble among aspirants and their friends Tor the nomination, and, thereafter, for con. siderable soreheadncss on the part of gentle men who are sure to be disappointed The latest man to come openly into the field, of which we have heard, is Col. K. s. Woolsev. ot Stanwix Station, on the Gila river. He IS strong man, in some places. We know him pretty well, and so do nearly all the peo- pie of the Territory. We are sorry that he IS afflicted with desire to go to Congress.
 Beside the Colonel, friends of II. s. Ste ssS sssf % 2 Taslas sss 5 sIs dss 2 E ..ss H.ss and Judge Cartier of Prescott, will, no doubt, try to set 'em up before the conven. tion. Gentlemen of Republican leanings who might be induced to run are: John Smith, of Camp Mcdowell, C. w. C. Powell of Yuma, Wm. II. Hardy of Mohaye, and, ""y C"pN. "s NOI DiptlOW and Judge Howard of Prescott.
 There are, of course, many others scatter ed throughout the Territory, whose modcsty will yet be laid aside. The time for doing something is rapidly approaching, and we in. vite all who think they give transportation to Congressional heads to soon make the fact known, or forever after hold their peace.
 We almost feel safe in stating that neither Gpyprunr San,rtl nosbf,ri veyor General Wasson, Judge Berry or any other titled parsonage south of the Gila river cares to run the risk of running, this time. As to Mir. Mccormick, he may and may not try for fourth term, but, in case he con- cludes to do so, he will very soon open his mouth and proclaim tue fact.
 Until such time, doubt and uncertainty as to the plan of the campaign, names of stand. ard bearers" etc, will exist in the minds of the people, who have just commenced to take stock in politics.

BEASs.-- The following, from the San Diego Union, is applicable to almost any farming locality in Arizona:
 There is money lu beans. California "bayous" ble that can be grown here. We have obtained some notes on the cultivation of beans from practical farmer, who knows all about 1t, and communicate the same for the benefit Of whom it may concern. The best hne to plant beans is In May; they should not be planted until the rains are wholly over if the month of May is chosen ihe crop will mature in September. You can plant from 20e 10 400 pounds to the acre; this is fsir average, although it Is sajd "pant just many as you can prepare the ground for" The ground should be thoroughly plowcd and har rowed down smooth then set your blow so that the share will go down bu, about half its depth, and drop yosr beans in every other fuTrow. Our informant has planted as high as three hundred acres in one sesson, and he says there Is no crop ,bst requires so little attention. Prepare the ground properly and put in plenty of seed and the bcaos giii take care Of themselves. The di. rectiosts fog harvesting the crop are simple. He says: ~AE cheap way Co thresh beans as have ever tried Is to put floor on a sled covered with canvass. In pulling tho vines turn the roots up {; let them lay for n week, and then they are ready for ;hroShing. By aslng sled In this way you scatter your vines evenly over the ground, so that they will not discommode you in blowing again; ana the vines, pIowod In, are excellent maRure."
 Very true. But, they are not Arizona miners. They are delpded men from Eastern Nevada.

THE WEEKLY MINER.
4 "SIyGULAR" INDIAN AGENT.

Dr J. \. Tonner, Indian agent at the Col orado reserve, has forw Asded us copies of communications concerning the rorch talked of removal of liualpais to lis sg Hcy, for the purpose, we presume, of proving that Gen Crook has been more anxious than Dr Ton ner, for said removal, since the pr states, in one of his letters to the GeneraI, that he was ready to receive these Iadians, but wanted 90 mounted men to constantly guard them on the reservation. A singular request 10 come from a gentleman who but short time ago declared his ability to control five or six hundred more Apachos than he then had on his reservation.
 This attempt to shoulder the blame for Huslpai tropbles on Crook. because, in obe- dicncc to orders from the War Department, issued at the request of the Interior Depart menf, he asked the Doctor for information as to his readiness to receive the IIualpais, is far fetched and will fsl, far short of its mark Crook knows and so does every citizen of the Territory, that Camp Besle Springs is no good place for these Indians, si ,ce it is upon q Territorial thoroughfayss. in < section of country where there IS no good fsrming land and close to large settlef,e ents of w,.stes. But, there are spots in the HnaNs>. country to which these Indians woeid willingly rioye and 1t is to some of said sl-ct% where, in time, they would become self sustaining, that Crook, the citizens and al indian agents here who wish to see said Iaissus satisfi,E co remain at peace, are anxior- to see them re- moved
