INDIAN pEPREnATIONs.

The following from the Tucson Star will give the readers an idea of the management of Indians al the san Carlos Reservation, where they are furnished with passes to cover all time from one day to four months. dur ing which time they get in their play on the citizens of Southern Arizona. It is really a shame and disgrace to the Government of the United States. which iS supposed to give protection to it's subjects every where.
 Bill Morgan is in from his ranch on the Sonoita, the Indians are evidently about, but then people are skeptic and will not believe it possible that a san Carlos Indian could make the round trip in l20 days
 MT Morgan is one of the heaviest losers in stock by Indian raids and deprcd4tions and We would suggest that this pass business be discontinued.
 A courier came in yesterday from Peter Kitchens ranch (thc Putrcro,) and SAWS that on the 16th inst. a band of about seventeen Indians attacked the ranch and ran of ten head of horses. all good stock and valued from $lOO to $l50 per head.
 The men on the ranch pursued the Indians for some distance, and say the trail led towards the Patagonia mine
 This is not the tirst time that Mir. Kitchen has suffered from the Indians. S20, 900 would not pay him for all damages sustained. Peter was to leave here last night to follow up the trail. and better or keener Indian hunter does not exist in southern Arizona.
 Send the Indians and Agents to the Indian Territory; this is the true policy; and he who denies it must be rccuniarily interested in Indian contracts.
 Pi-on-se-n nay, the murderer of Rogers and Spence at sulphur Spring, is at San Carlos. Bring him in Mir District Attorney and let him bc dealt with according to law.

OUR IMMEDIATE WANTS.

What the people of Prescott mostly stand in need of are good roads from our village to the various rich mines in our mountains, and to that end, we have recommended the building of road to the Peck and Brad shaw. even if VIC do not build, for the pres ent, county buildings, roads we have none, county buildingN, although not so good as we would like to sec. We have, and by ht- tie expense they can be made reasonably se- cure. Some of our carpenters have taken exceptions to our views on building roads in preference tO the erection of county build. ings. declaring that If these new improve mcnts are not pushed forward that it will materially interfere with their business. Right here we wish to differ with them. Ii roads are built and few of our mines open ed up, quartz mills will have to be built. dwellings for the hundreds uf hardy miners who will seek remuneratiNe employment Tn our mines will have to be erected, new stores, saloons, assay offices. and m fact all kinds of buildings will hc needed and while the carpenter of to-day finds one job, ten will then take the place. lumber will bc in demand teamsters will find employment in hauling ores, machinery, etc; miners in extracting the precious metals wood choppers in furn ishing fuel for the mills hundreds of men will find employment where ten cannot now find anything to do; our merchants will sell larger quantities of goods; our shoemakcrs and tailorS will have their hands full. sa- looms and restaurants will loom up, and in ,act everything will put on a new aspect farmer will be able to sell more hay and grain, butter and cheese; our stock raiscrs will tind a ready sale for their mutton beef and pork, in fact there will be no industry of whatsoever kind but will reap a great and beneficial result from good roads to the vast mineral belt east ot Prescott. llardly a day passes but what We have the pleasant task of chronicling the discovery of new mines that pay away up into the thousands and without roads to them they necessarily lay dormant and yield Us nothing
 Let u> have roads in preference to any thing else. but if our city fathers think il eNpcdicnt and for the best interests of our county. then let Us have have county build ingS also. remembering however that our taxes are already high and that building costly buildings, at this time, will necessarily increase them to that extent whereby many of our large property owners and heavy tax payers would be compelled to dispose of their property ar become bankruptS. Town prop erty would necessarily depreciate in value under heavy taxation, property owners would be anxious to dispose ot taxable effects, and those of moderate means. who might build will be deterred from % doing if called up- on to pay an enormous tax.

\ party of Indians shot Captain Devers at Hardins ranch on the lGth in the back and leg; his wounds are thought to be dangerous and but little hopes are enter isiued of his recovery. We have known Captain DeverS for over twenty years m New Mexico and Arizona and regret, very much this sad occurrence.
 At Smiths ranch on the 10th, tine Indians killed Martin SancheS and Jesus Robles, Mexicans. and also took from different par tics fifteen head ot animals Captain Raf- ferty and his company wsre immediately sent te the scene of dcprcdations and were doing all that was possible to be done.

An Incident of the Lack of Army
Appropriation.

= The first embarrassment experienced by the
War department In consequence of the failure of
Congress to make an appropriation for the army,
occurred during the past week. The second reg
iment of infantry. stationed at Atlanta, Ga, was
ordered over ten days ago to the Pacific coast to
join General Howard for service in fighting the
Indians. On Friday, General Mcdowell, in de-
spatch to the Secretary of War from San Fran
CISCO, said I'm some way unaccountable to me
the second infantry ordered here week ago has
not been started" 1t is now ascertained that the
failure to start these troops is due to the fact that
the railroads leading out of Atlanta refused TO
transport them for the reason that there was no
certainty that they would ever get theirpay. The
railroad officials demanded cash down for the SER
vice, and, as Congress had failed to appropriate
any money for the army after the first of July,
the demand could not be complied with. While
there were urgent reasons for Fastening the
troops to General Howard, they had to remain at
Atlanta for several days while negotiations were
carried on between the Secretary of War and the
railroad officials. Finally the latter agreed to ac-
cept promises to pay, and the troops were started
on Friday last, after nearly weeks delay. II
these troops fail to reach the scene of the Indian
hosulities in time to save the lives of many of
their comrades, the country must lay the blame
at the doors of the democratic house of represen-
tatives.

"Of the making Of books there is no end" and
for that and other reasons the Harper Bros.
have given US another geography. In appearance
and execution it is Il that the public have Q right
to expect from the great publishing house. The
paper is the best, the type so clear that che who
runs may read" the maps are remarkable for COR
rectness, clearness Of print and deicacy of color
ing. Political divisions and physical features are
presented in different maps, thus avoiding the in
distinctness noticed where these are combined.
Most maps represent too much, some too little.
Harper comes very near the golden mean. The
pictures cost the publishers many thousand dollars
and they are msryes Of art, and stand next to the
real things in nature, in their power to teach chill
dren. The plant and animal life, the races of
men, and states of civilization indicated to the
eye as in panorama. Pictures will be retained
in the memory, when words addressed to eye or
ear ere forgotten. The Maine student needs to
know more of his own State than of other
countries, and here he will find "home geography"
for his special benefit. Geography is one of the
most interesting and profitable studies found in
our common school course, and Hsrper's book is
one of the best that claims public attention, and
every progressive teacher should examine it.

The New York Nation, with that as'

in the republican vote of South Caroli-
ma" There is no change in that vote.
The democrats fail to get it. Republican
votes are not brought into the ballot-box-
es because they are sure to be miscount-
ed or thrown out. The democratic gains
of representatives have been made where
they cast smaller vote than they did
with heavy republican majorities against
them last November. Republicanism is
simrly checked to death down South, as
abolitionism was before the rebellion. A
