State generally, and expresses pretty en-
the feeling Of tho entire com
munity in relation to the matter
'' Phoebe, Sept. 10th.-To whom il may
concern We, the undersigned have, in
accordance with the request Of A. c.
Cleveland. Daniel Murphy and others of
White Pine county, made forced march
from Phoebe 10 the scene OF the reported
Indian war; We reached the vicinity
where the dispatches stated that Indian
depredations had been committed. but
there were no hostile Indians there.
There were none in the county, aud there
has not been a single Indian on the war
path in Eastern Nevada during any of
the time of this excitement. The entire
matter was fabrication manufactured
by Cleveland and other persons sending
and causing dispatches TO be forwarded
10 us. We denounce the entire transac-
ton as q false, soulless, wicked, con-
temptib!e, nercenary, trick, concocted
by men who have so disgraced them
selves as to be beneath our contempt.
The country is in as peaceable a condi-
ton as it ever was, and all reports Of
Indian hostility is false in substance,
and in fact there il not, and has not
been any danger from Indians along
either road leading to Phoebe nor in the
surrounding valleys. We publish this
that all may know the extent of the de-
ception and fraud practiced by A. G.
Cleveland, Daniel Murphy and those
guilty of aiding and abetting in his plan
to excite the people and produce a need
less and upiustitiable war upon the Indi-
ans of Nevada. Witness our hands at
Phoebe, Nevada, September 10th, 1875.

missioner.
FROM ARIZONA. - BY letter Just re-
ceved from McCracken Hill, Arizona,
we learn that things wear an exceedingly
quiet aspect in that neigborhood and hut
little is doing in the mines. About IF
teen men are at present employed on the
McCracken proper and large quantity
OF good ore is being taken out, which is
about the only work now going on in
that neighborhood. Considerable work
has been done on the Senator, which is
in an advanced stage of development,
but at present work has been suspended
Buel's furnace on Bill Williams Fork
has been completed, but further than
chat inf ,u TAaG
dence in the great value of the McCrack.
en- is by no means shaken by those hav-
ing any knowledge of the mine, but
those expecting to realizs anything from
it will have to possess their souls with
patience until such time when Arizona
will receive that attention from capital
which her boundless mineral resources
will in the near future attract. The Sec
ton of country referred to, situate as it
is, but a short distance inland on the
nayigable waters of the Colorado, pos.
sesses advantages which will not be over
looked for any great length of time.
The letter also says that L. Solomon,
formerly OF this place, had opened a
"gin mill at McCracken Hill and the
chances for him to starve to death could
not be better. Louis Felsenthal has a
store near Buel's furnace, on Bill Will
liams' Fork, but business was anything
but brisk. Grant Blake and Johnny
Baker, who left here in December last
and who secured a location on the Nc.
Cracker ledge, will probably return tc
Phoebe in month and wait for a more
favorable turn in affairs in that section
for it is evident that Arizona's day hal
not yet arrived.
REruRNEp.-W. L. Mckee, Constabl,
of Phoebe township, returned to towI
late on Friday night. He reports tha
the Indians on the road and around Sho
shone District are all afraid of the white
folks, and willing to give up their arms
They have no hesitation in saying tina
they are peaceable. and that their inten
tons are such. Mr.. Mckee says that h
rode from Shoshone Springs Frida,
morning. u distance of ninety miles
pretty fair riding we think in the space
of ten hours. His report is that it is al
big scare, and that Cleveland's folk
are ell safe.
MENAGERIE AT AuCTIoH. 49, Yesterda
our ears were assailed by the tone c
Bro. Davis mellihuous voice raised aboy
the din and hustle consequent on Mai
street, trying to dispose of hedgehog
a horse and several small mules, an
though his assortment was complete eve
to little jacks for bit, he couldn
make it stick. Alas George, that 20
should thus have to waste your sweetnes
on the desert air.

D lit, which is but just recognition of b
talent.
New ROUTE. The new Hamilton ROT

It terson mountain, which has always be,

!. free from dust, it being gravel road
, most its entire length.
