From the Citizen of Sept. %:
Yesterday afternoon as Julian
Bujanda and A. Molina were GO
ing in an OXcart to the latter'S
ranch west of town, the oxen ran
away and the cart striking a big
stump was turned over. Molina
jumped off but Buianda was
caught under the cart, the box
falling upon and crushing his
skull and causing almost instant
death.
Hon. John WATSON, the alterna-
te commissioner from Arizona to
the Centennial Exhibition, was
an occupant Of the stage which
left here yesterday for the West.
He is en- route to San Francisco
and thence to Philadelphia anu
will be absent couple of months.
The main object Of his visit is to
be present in his official capacity
at the grand closing of the Cen
tenniaI, and with the presence Of
Commissioner Mccormick there
also, we may congratulate Oursei
yes that the Territory has been
well represented in the nations
great exposition from first to last
Mr.. w. L. Campbell writes to
Governor Stafford, 10th instant, in
San Francisco, that he would start
10 afew days for Tucson, to engage
in artesian we'll 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 20 better field of
operations for arteSian enterprise,
than in Tucson and near to it in
all directions. There are millions
of acres of rich lands ready for as
easy reclamation by water as
about Los Angeles and San Ber-
nardinO. Mr.. Campbell comes
with good tools and ample know
ledge of the business, and Tucson
may soon rejoice in the use of
arteSian water.
MT. sam. hughes came IN from
the SOnOita, San Rafael and Santa
Cruz settlements on Wednesday,
and reports that within six week
over one hundred head of horses
and mules have been stolen by
Apaches, from the people, and
quite a number of cattle killed.
The Apaches kill a beef when
they are in want of beef, and take
what they need at the time and
let the balance remain to spoil or
be eaten by wild beasts. The set
tiers to the number of twenty five,
recently followed the trail of the
stock and thieves, thinking first
it might lead to San Carlos, but it
led directly to New Mexico. and
they followed it to east of the San

SCHOOL WARRANTS.

We publish in to-day's paper the act of our last legislature pro viding for the cancellation and re tissue of outstanding school warrants.
 Under thls law our county court has made an order in accordance with it's provisions, which will also be found in to days paper. This is a matter of importance to those holding school warrants, and we commend a careful perus- al of the law and the order to those interested.
The Russellville Democrat., 1876-01-27
 CONVICT LABOR.

The agitation of the question whether convict labor shall be al lowed to supplant and drive out honest, free labor from our State, has awakened so much feeling, that there is not likely to be much peace between the laboring mas scs and the powers that be, until there is a solution of this matter. The feeling at the Capital and at Argenta had become so highly worked up that the City Council of Little Rock, passed resolution empowering and directing the Mayor to have the nuisance abat- ed.
 This action called forth a com munication from the Board of Commissioners of the Penetentia- ", to the Mayor and City Council, which we regret to know, fully sustains the Lessee in the very deleterious practice of working convict labor as he may choose.
 The Commissioners say: "The Lessee will be allowed to work the convicts of the penetentiary outside the walls and protected in so doing, until the same is de- cided to be unlawful by the Courts" From this we may in fer, that the Commissioners favor the position that when a convict ed felon is sentenced to "hard la- Dor Tn the State PrisOn," it means that the State may allow Lessee of the Prison in Little Rock, to create branch prisons all over the State, and supplant honest, free labor on the farm, in the factory, and in the mine, with the labor of felons? This is not very favor able opinion to the honest laborer, and will hardly be calculated to bring new acquisitions of "bone and sinew" to our State. Had our Commissioners decided, that the Courts when they sentenced a man to the penetentiary, mean that he should stay there until his time had expired, it is hardly probable that the Courts would decide the opinion to be errone ous.
The Russellville Democrat., 1876-01-27
VOL. IT..
CONVICT LABOR.

We are g.atified to know that popular indignation is beginning to manifest itself all over the state against the employment of con yict labor outside of its legitimate sphere. Particularly arc we glad to sec that the people at the capital-the people of Little Rock and Argenta-are moving in the matter. As will be seen by the resolution passed at large meet ing held at Argenta, which we publish elsewhere in to-day's pa per, the masses are getting in earnest about the matter, and 1t is to be hoped that there will be such a storm of indignation hurl- ed at the ruinous and demoraliz- ing practice that the nuisance anu worse bildil 't HuiotiiSC " III be abated and prohibited. Our community have on a former oc- casion expressed their repugnance and disapproval of the outrage, in no uncertain terms, but at the time they met with but little sym pathy or cooperation from any other section. We are therefore glad to see other sections waking up to realizing sense of the detrimcnt which this system is cal culated to entail upon the labor ing masses and the prosperity of our Stat. The spirit of the reso- lutions adopted by the Argenta meeting are the natural breathings which would reasonably be ex- pected to emanate from all honest freemen and lovers of justice, and we trust that the press of the State and the people at large will second any and all pcaceable and lawful remedies or measures to suppress the outrageous practice. If the state government of Arkan- sas is not able to maintain a state prison for the confinement and punishment of criminals, without letting out their labor in compea- tion with the free labor of honest, upright artisans and laborers- peddling it out all over the State we had better take in our sign.
 The Little Rock Evening Star ought to push this matter, and in its fight we hope it may have the moral support of the press thro'- out the State.
