THE CLIMATE of Yuma is par. ticularly adapted to the cure and relief of Bright's disease of the kidneys. In this dry, warm eli mate precipitation is unchecked by sudden changes of tempera- ture and passes off freely from the skin, carrying with it urea and other products of the body, which would otherwise have to be disposed Of by the kidneys. In Bright's disease the kidneys are unable to carry off these perni- cious products, and they remain in the system to poison the blood
 and bring on a miserable death.
 The symptoms of poisoning ny urea are in some respects similar to those produced by opium, Hot air baths and hot sand baths are the usual remedies prescribed for the malady; but in cold, damp climates, where the changes are rapid and marked, these reme- dies are ineffectual; the free per spiration started by the treatment
 Is driven back. A number of

NEL's treasury indicates a lack Oe
 financiering ability in it's editor;
 therefore we pretend not to ad dvise
 the railroad folks ho,o to apply 8
 remedy. But ,every corporation
 has enemies enough to make it
 worth it's while to avoid making
 more. It. may have need here
 after for friends who could be won
 now by more considerate policy.
 It does wrong in applying to from
 tier traders and miners, whose only funds are Government and commercial checks and bullion the same rigid rules by which it governs city merchants doing business under the very shadow of mint and treasury. The money disbursed here in construc- tiOn, etc., to some extent miti- gates the drain upon our supply of cash. But after all little of it | circulates here. Their Chinese spend next to nothing; their me- chanics are selected for sobriety | and are men who wear their old | clothes about their work here and | save their money for an occasional trip to California. The railroad | buys all its supplies in that State, and all it's disbursements in Ari- zona have not equaled the in- crease in freight money which we have paid since the road reached us. The complaint is general, and the SENTINEL but echoes it.

THE Railroad Company still re- fuses to make public it's freight
 rates, but in talking with our
 merchants and comparing
 amounts now charged for freight
 with those formerly collected by
 the old c. s. N. Co.,, we judge
 that on the whole we are paying
 an average of ten per cent. less
 than formerly, besides gaining considerable in time. The Com. pany is playing the devil with
 the country by refusing 10 take any kind of money but gold or greenbacks; these are fast leaving the country and going into the railroad treasury for freights and fares. The expenses of the Gov ernment here are paid chiefly in Paymasters' and Quartermasters' checks, which the railroad people will not take for freight. There is no mint in the Territory, and our miners have to ship their bull lion to San Francisco and then draw checks against it to pay their employees. The old c. s. N. Go. used to take from respon- sible shippers all kinds of bullion and checks subject to collection. This course kept cash in the country. The whole Territory is already suffering. We have plenty of bullion, Government drafts, etc., but actual money is too scarce for business. Every body recognizes the cause of 1t and feels sore at the Southern Pacific. The state of the SENTI-

Injustice to the Army a SgrOn
 te the People.

The SENTINEL has been critl-
 cised for recommending an organ
 ization of the army on more
 practical and severer system than
 the one now in vogue. The army
 is hired to fight, and should he trained to do it we'll. In training
 a rooster for the cockpit, we put
 out many of his feathers, irritate
 his temper, soak him in rum,
 throw him up in the air, and oth-
 erwise maltreat him for exercise;
 but we feed him, regard less Of
 expense. Except in this last and
 most vital particular, the army
 has very properly been treated in
 the same way. The SENTINEL
 has pIucked it's feathers and &s gravated it's temper-it has done
 its own soaking-and the people have cuffed and bounced it around pretty nearly enough for exercise but Congress has shaw efully failed to do it's share-t0 apprO' l priate money for feeding and maintaining it. A Democratic ! House of Representatives under i the plea of reform and economy, l refused to appropriate funds ! enough to maintain the army in Arizona and the other Territories. 1 Teamsters contractors, and every body dependent upon army ex- penditures, are now feeling the effects of Democratic "reform." If an army is necessary at all, it should be kept in a state of efh- ciency. A Democratic Congress has made it simply burden upon us. An enormous expense is en- tailed upon the country by the army, such as it is; but. for the lack of money to purchase and transport supplies and forage, the army is next to useless. Con- tractors, freighters and their em- ployees are kept in suspense and forced to great sacrifices of time and money by not getting the money due them. If there is no need of an army it should be dis banded, and it's members, with the citizens now depending on it, would be thus set free 10 make their living by other pursuits This would save aN expense. If an army is necessary, money enough should be provided to pay it's expenses and keep it in fight ing trim. An efficient army commands respect: 8 hungry, ragged, one-horse outfit like ours invites contempt. In reducing it to this condition, the Democratic politicians have inflicted an irre- parable wrong on the people of Arizona and of the country. In. stead of appropriating money enough to support an army de- gently and to pay it's bills, they cause to be squandered a large sum, just enough to barely keep it alive (almost in state of sus- pended animation), and not to pay it's accounts with the people. The army feels the injustice of it's treatment, gets sulky, and don't care 8 curse Indians kill voters or not.
