Monte Pic.

The week just closing has been an event
 ful one for many Of the monte pio or Ipawnbroking shops Of Tucson. Upon
 Tuesday. Justice c. H. Meyers, with the assistance Of Marshal X. G. Buttner, exc Icuted an organized raid on the monte pio shops, and for three days carried on a ! thorough and searching campaign. Up on representations Of several merchants and by due process Of law, a number Of the monte pic shops were entered, and stolen goods identified and taken there from, to the approximate amount Of sl5O.
 The goods identified by the several mer- chants, as property stolen from them,
 were: Eight pairs Of shoes, one overnhirt, six towels, one pair Of boots, two vests, lone shawl, one piece Of ticking, one brace, and five pairs Of pants. Upon sworn iden. tihcation, these goods were restored to their proper owners by Justice Meyers. The pawnbrokers, in whose possession the goods were found, had an interview
 with the Justice on the 10th, plead guilty 10 violation of the law governing the
 pawnbroking business, and paid a fine Of
 $50 each. Parties engaged in the pawn
 brokfng business will hereafter be requir- led to keep their books according to law.
 The law on this business is very strict and clear. Every person engaged therein is
 required to keep an entry book with the entries written in ink, In the English lan- guage, containing an accurate account and description Of every article pledged Tor sold, name and residence Of tbe pledg- Ter or vendor, the amount or interest, the date and hour Of pawn or purchase, etc. The rate Of interest is established, with penalties for violation. The time in which articles pawned may be sold, is set, and all sales of'such articles must be at public auction, upon proper notice pub
 lished in local newspaper, and the sale
 must take place in the town where the ar- .ucles were originally pledged. The books referred to shall be open to the lawful in- spectiOn Of any sheriff, constable or po-
 Ice officer. The penalty for violation Of these requirements is a fine Of not less than $50 nor more than $500, or confine-
 ment in the county jail for a term not ex- ceeding six months or both.
 The pawnbroking business, honestly conducted, is as fair and honorable as any other. Otherwise 1t is the meanest and
 most dangerous in q community A fair pawnbroker is as good and, may be, better than his neighbOrs; a dishonest one is simply fence." Let those engaged in the business here (and we believe there are many honest ones.) endeavor to ex- pose those engaged in an ilegitimate pawnbrokerage. and thus stop the petty thieving which is becoming un bearabIe in this town. The civil authority which took this matter in hand, is worthy Of praise and the helping hand Of every good citizen.

Yayapai Matters.

The Miner of January 14th, says A petition to Governor Stafford, asking
 for the appointment of c. C. Bean to
 fill the vacancy occasioned by the re signation of Dr. W. ". Jones as Cen. tennial Agent from Arizona, was start ed on Monday in this town, and would probably have received the signature ofnearly the whole population had not a dispatch from the Governor put a stop to it, by citing the fact that the time had gone by in which the law making the appropriation requires that it should be drawn, and that the ap- pointee would be obliged to bear his own expenses as we'll as those of the contributions from Arizona, and that there is no provision by which he can be remunerated for his time and money expenditures.
 Major A. w. Evans, Assistant In spector-General of this Military Depart ment, has been ordered to Omaha, head quarters of the Department of Platte. The Major has been confined to his quarters here for many months, with a broken leg, and is now only able to get about on crutches with difficulty. He came up to thIs office in Col. Wilkins buggy yesterday, for the first time since the accident which crippled him last Spring.
 Rev. J. Franklin McKean, of the NJ. E. Church South, has been sent to this circuit by the Bishops of hIs Church, and will preach for the present oc- casionally in the different neighbor- hoods until houses of worship can bel provided.
 There are now surveyed lands suffi- cient to enable the school officers to run the schools of this Territory for a mum Der of years, on the proceeds of sales of the 18th and 32nd sections to which the schools are entitled, if provision were made to make them available. Our delegate Tn Congress could not do his a better service than toI cause these lands to be thrown upon the market.

There Is more or less complaint about
 the appearance and management or utter
 lack of management of the new burying ground north of town. |; is represented
 that our departed frien.ts are. ito use
 homely but pointed language "planted
 promiscuOusly." We have been to the ground number Of times and our i'm presSion is that such is the case. There is d portion Of the ground occupied by the Catholic church and there they lay away their dear friends, perhaps with some or der in arrangement Of the respective the dead are buried as chance or momen- tary choice may dictate the location. This is wrong. Everything In death as in life should be done decently and in order
 Economy is good thing but don't let il commence with the dead, for whom there is nothing left but a decent burial. We are making no reflections whatever on any one. If there is fault in the matter 1t belongs 10 us all. Let us seek 10 remedy what may be wrong. Letthe ground, both Ndthoi4C' lu HoI uIIetuN 1 duu AIotestdHti be carefully laid of. First the exterior boundaries, then avenues and lines for graves. and let the marks be so frequent and distinct, that disorder cannot occur. And when we offer the above suggestions as to manner of proceeding, they are only suggestions. We wish 10 open up the sub ject. There may be and probably are bet ter suggestions 10 be made, especially as The subject Is one which should appeal to every heart. Don't let 1t pass unnOticed and unattended to. Let it be immediate ly brought before the proper authorities.

THE weather last week was delight ful until Friday. Friday morning the fiends of the upper air, came down from a storm cloud on the Santa Ritas, and behaved most indecently, causing people generally to lose all the advance ment of piety which they had gained during the previous days. However, if II were not for these windy days, we would become 90 attached to Tucson and its delightful climate, as 10 forget that we are merely Soiourners here. and thus be led to neglect the future state.

JACOB KLINGENsCHNIIDT, our old time magician and prestidigi- tator, has been heard from in Texas. Ja- cob was very good man and has had some hard luck and we are glad to hear from him again, as he pursues the even tenor Of his way, elsewhere. S. Hughes received a letter from him this week which reads as follows:

In addition to the above, Mir Smith has balance of produce, worth about S400. Of these crops the cabbage was an al- most total failure, the corn, wheat and barley were one halft the usual crops, and the potatoes were less than the average
 The proprietor of this ranch doesn't make any noise about the above show ing, and in making this exhibit of what he knows about farming, he is not try ing to compete with the record of the late lamented Horace Greeley, or any body else. He was simply asked what he could show as the ordinary produce of certain number of acres, worked under the usual advantages and disad- vantages, and he gave the returns as we have given them. To he sure, 1t may be said that he watches the mar ket, and dispOses of his produce to the best advantage. This is simply say ing that he has good farming sense, and ought not to be called on advantage. The exhibit of fools farming would not be a fair exhibit of the productive powers of any locality. A wooden headed jackass that ought to have lived in the year one, or a monkey with brass appendages, will fail in farming in Arizona. as each has failed everywhere, from the tune when ground was first broken to the date of the latest sale, un- der the hammer, of a newspaper farm CTS scientifically cultivated farm ex- pertinent.

Arizona Farming.

John T. Smith has the BOsque ranch just this side of Calabasas, in the Santa Cruz valley, about sixty miles south of Tucson, of which he has cultivated during this last season one hundred and twenty acres. As giving some idea of what can be done in ranching in proper localities in this section of Ari- zona, we will give the produce of this ranch for the past farming season. We. believe it can safely be taken for a low average of possibilities in farming here, Tn favorable locations. MT. Smith has had considerable difficulties to contend with, during the period refer red to, having had long spell of sick ness and subsequent slow recovery of strength. And yet, for this one season he makes the following return, giving the value in money received for the respective crops of vegetables and caraolc.
