WALI.APAI ENTERPRIsE.-The first number
 of this new candidate for popular favor,
 dated June lst, has reached us, and it is no
 unmeaning fattery to say that it Is real
 little gem, both as to quantity and quality
 of matter as we'll as in mechanical execu- tiQp. J. W. Leonard and c. F. Mitchell are editors and proprietors, and if the initial
 number is an index of its future, every man,
 woman and child in Mobave county ought to be cremated if they fail to give it a gen. erous and ample support. In saluting the public they say: "We are not publishing a political paper; upon such matters we shall endeavor to give our readers the items of news as they come to us, fairly and impartially, and without editorial comment. But upon all matters of interest to Arizo- mans in general, and the citizens of Mohave county in particular, we shall strive to make our paper an advocate of its best interests, and to present all the information we can obtain" They have marked out just the right thing to do, and are just the boys to do it right. They have the experience and the ability to represent the county fairly, so that when their paper is read abroad it will soon be understood to be fair exponent of the truth as it exists in their country, and will be believed and trusted for its fair deal- ing. It is printed on fine quality of book paper, in clear type, and is really handsome. We wish it success.

The allegation, in the complaint of Wm. Cole vs. Bean & Bean, to the effect that Bean, with the connivance of his wife, had conspired to get Cole drunk, has afforded considerable amusement among those best acquainted with the habits and appetites of the plaintiff, and recalls one of his own ad- missions as to peculiar malady of his, in which he once claimed to be possessed of 0 tape-worm, and 'the worm eternally wanted whisky"

The report, which was current on the street on Wednesday morning, that the c. and A stage Go. had sold out 10 the A. and N.

Sup. c. and A., who says it is entirely without foundation, and adds, that they have two years vet to run that he knows of, and they intend to run it. So that opposition is likely to remain lively.

F. M. Speed, Superintendent construction of Military Telegraphs in Arizona, gave us a call last week and left with us pleasant an- ticipation of the time when an office may be established in Prescott. He saw for himself that the Post at Fort Whipple is too far to one side to make it at all convenient in a business view, and will do all he can to locate an office in the business portion of the town.

THE WAR IN CUBA-The conflict wakes
6ercer in the Ever Faithful Isle, and the
might of Spain is hurled 10 vain against the
mouutain aud forest defended Cuban patriots,
who are steadily approaching Havana and push
iue their enemies off or under the soil of Cuba
After struggle that has DOW lasted over seven
years We find the area of Spanish domination on
the island growing gradually smaller every year.
and the chances Of 6ual suppression OF the
revolution absolutely nil. The soil seems to
swallow the enemies of Cuba, for army after
army has marched eastward into these dense
forests and rugged defes, but has never re-
turned; for even disease is patriotic ln Cuba,
and yellow fever aud small poX NOW down the
columns of Spain us effectually as the bullet and
machete of the Cuban Insurgents. The Span
ish troops at present engaged in the Cuban war
are mostly young boys, drafted under the con-
serption laws that were 10 force during the civil
war in the old country. The majority of these
poor young fellows have scarcely attained the
age Of twenty years, and. being brought direct
from temperate into tropical climate aud
exposed to all the bardships of a guerilla war
fare they speedily succumb to the terrible forms
of disease Incidental to torpica! campaign. 1t
is fact, and one pregnant OF fearful meaning,
that the Spanish reinforcements for Cuba rarely
bring arms with them They are furnished
with weapons from the ranks Of their dead pre-
decessors, and 10 turn surrender the oft trans
ferred rife to death and their successors. Thus
the awful sacrifice of the young life of Spain
continues to satisfy the cupldity, vanity, and
we might add ignorance, of the Peulnsular
Government and it's agents 10 Cuba. When
the war will cease will only be determined by
failure Of Spain TO furnish victims.-Neo York;

One occasionally comes across such touch
ing tragedies in the daily papers as the follow
ing from Munich letter to Cincinnati paper:
One of the saddest was the case of a mechanic,
who had been some time out Of work, and
when reduced to his last "lechser' (about six
cents), Instead of investing it in bread, staked
it on lottery ticket. As he did not return
home on Saturday night, his wife was in a
fever OF anxiety and fear lest, in his despera.
ton, he had destroyed himself. However
bright aud early on Sunday morning he re
turned, radiant 10 new suit of clothes with
hands and arms full Of redeemed household
articles. aud exclaimed, "We are saw ID; | have
won prize" The poor woman gazed at hu
speechless, unable to realize tho glad tidiogs;
but he reaction was too great. She sank OF
the floor, and although medical assistance was
promptly procured. her spirit had fed, aud the
wdower and four little orphans were plunged
into greater misery than that from which they
had been rescued.
