Mr. GEORGE j. RosKRUGE returned to
Tucson by Thursdays stage, after an alb
seuce of several months in California,
during which time he has not only enjoyed
himself but grew fat and healthy. He
had great many adventures with great
men Of this and his own native country
(hold Hingland,) but his modesty makes
him forbid our detailing any. He says it
may be stated that Hon. S. K. belong and
family are due in Tucson by stage to-day.

MORE CITIZENS MURDERED
The Apaches Kill = &. johnson and
Calvin MOwrey liza san PearO Val
Iey-FuII Particulars.

. UPPER SAN Pedro VALLEY, Sept 16.
EDITOR CITIZEN A sad calamity
has fallen upon our valley. Mr. J. c.
Johnson can be added to the list of
martyrs. He was killed by the In
dams while at work on the road some
twenty miles above the Upper Cross
ing. Calvin Mowrey is also missing
and there is but little doubt he has
shared the same fate. They had labor
ed hard all Summer together and sue
.ceeded in raising fine crop of corn,
with their faithful needle-guns con-
stantly with them. Wednesday morn
ing last they started TO work on the
road at the crossing of the San Pedro,
opposite the old adobe ruins, two
miles below their ranch at the mouth
of the BarbOcOmari. where the lament
ed Lewis lost his life last Spring. Mr..
JOhnsOn's eldest son with friend, left
his fathers ranch to go farther up the
valley to locate a home. On his re-
turn two days after, he with the writer,
on nearing the house found no one
had been at the house since he had left
We soon hurried to the place where
they went to work, and there found
Mr.. j. lying on his face, stripped, with
bloody matter oozing from a gun shot
wound opposite the region of the heart,
with the shovel by his side and pick
at his feet Mr. Mowrey nor the hor-
ses were anywhere to be found. The
harness had been cut loose from the
wagon. Parties are in search of Mr..
Mowrey, but with no hopes of finding
him alive.
Mr.. Editor, such scenes are calcula
ted TO stir up the bitterest feeling of
the brave, energetic man that dares to
make himself home beyond the com
forts of civilized society, and induce
him to ask how long is he to stand
picket for an inefficient military? Why
is he TO be shot down in cold blood by
savage demons, while thousands of
soldiers are idle? Why is this, the
most fertile valley in the Territory, to
be made a grave yard? Why are the
Indian scouts that are eager
for the chase not permitted to hunt
down the rowing bands of hostile
Indians?
Mr.. johnson was a man of fine edu-
cation and untiring industry; was fifty
four years of age; came to this Terri /
tory last April from California; in 1852
was a member of the California legis-
ature. If he had been permitted to,
he would have made his influence felt
here and have been a great benefit in
he San Pedro valley. O.P. |.

YESTERDAY afternoon as Julian BuJan'

cart to the latter's ranch west OF town

crushing his skull and causing almost
instant death.

or Stafford, 10th instant, in San Francisco,
that he would start in few days for Tue
son, to engage in artesian well boring. and
that he had been delayed somewhat to
perfect the working Of an artesian augur.
But he had everything all right, and
would come right along. There is no bet
ter field of operations for Ertesian enter
prise. than in Tucson and near TO II in all
directions. There are millions OF acres OF
rich lands ready for as easy reclamation
by water as about Los Angeles and San
Bernardino. Mr.. Campbell comes with
good tools and ample knowledge Of the
business, and Tucson may soon rejoice in
the use OF artesian water.

SOME RAIsERs WANTED.-We under
stand that the Camcronites in Brady,
are short of help. They have been
trying to raise Pole at West Liberty
Jefferson Line p. o. for week past
but have not succeeded The first
trouble was to get teams enough to
haul the pole, but after two day s
effort, and sending over to Jefferson
county for additional motive power,
the pole was put on the ground about
midnight. There the pole reclines in
the mud, and nobody about to "hold
the Fort and if Rufus Shapley and
Congressman Murray don't go out and
give it a lift 1t will freeze fast in the
mud. Shaplcy should 60, for he has
the muscle" and the steadincss to hold

Come over and help us,"'has been out

Ton PEPPER OUTDoNE.--For square,
toed defamation and falsehood, Tom
Pepper for over two centuries has
stood in the front rank of his class but
recently Blaine, of Maine, has been
elbowing Tom out of place, and now
holds the fort of falsehood himself.
"Jim" spoke his peace at Warren,
Ohio, last Saturday week. 1t was
chiefly devoted to proving that the
election of Mr. Tilden would involve
the payment of the Rebel debt. And
yet Mr.. Blaine as a United States Sen.
ator is supposed to know that the Con-
stitution expressly prohibits its pay
ment, and that that instrument can
only be altered by a solemn vote Of
three.fourths of the States. 1t is bad
enough for the fedglings of the Radi-
cal stump to put forth such absurdties
at crossroads meetings, but for man
like Mr. Blaine it is infamous, and it
shows an over-estimate of the swallow
ing capacity of even aWestorn Reserve
Radical audience.
Radicals in this section would dcspise
such cheap statements and go for the
fellows scalp who would thus play on
their credulity.

A LITTLE Too THIN.-lt is given
out by Radical authority that Ex-Sec-
retary Of War Belknap, is TO be crimi.
nally tried for his crimes in December
This Is all CANNON. After the cleo
ton is good. A Washington City jury
will no more convict Belknap than the
twelve will agree to hang each other
not ifit were proven that Belknap had
stolen the whole War Department
would they convict him. Ho confess
cd to having committed every crime
charged against him, and yet, the Rad
ical Senate acquitted him. viii o
Radical jury do anything else? No
They dare not. The Grant Cameron.
Chandler ring own the Court and jur
ors in Washington, and although "ths
Government" sent forth telegram
saying, "lct no guilty man escape" moi
member OF the Cabinet, or Of the
Presidential family could be convicted
although they had committed every
crime known to the catalogue. The
time and money spent in trying Bel.
knap, is all thrown away. Such pro
ceedings are but u continuance of the
Post.trader robbcrics and other crimes
which are being utilized for the bencfi,
of the Radical party.
To convict Babcock, is to condemn
Grant, Cameron, Morton 4 Co. Thit
no Radical jury dare do, in the Dis
trict Of Columbia.
