The situation in Louisiana is still exciting,
but hopes of peace and the ultimate victory Of
the Nichols faction are not wholly gone. The
Presidents order TO Gen. Augur expressly
reads: "Shoud there be a recognition of
either, it must be Mr.. Packard - but General
Augur has already said to a reporter 81
construe the telegram as not recognizing
either" and that the President himself must
determine on future action" The General
evidently knows thing or two, and is not
to be caught in the trap so warily set by the
Administration. While it is apparent that
Grant wants Packard recognized, he shrks
the responsibility, and gives Augur cue,
which that Office. is too smart to take.

that any depredniions are traced to them. An
exception occurred, however, on Sunday night

benign influence of the quiet Sabbath evening,
or perhaps the benumbing sensation of the

TIE EREDERTcK EXAMLNER.

Scarcely had the solemn cadences Of our
mournful requiem over the defeat Of Mr.. Nc
Comas subsidized than the Frederick Erdminer
with no respect for the sauciity Of tie occa-
sion, broke the sacred stiffness that followed
with an ill-natured criticism upon our per-
formance of The obsequies. Yea, it even con-
descended TO call us the "Sophomoric" editor
Of the SENTINEL. The deep and hidden mean
ing " h.ch that mysterious word sophomoric'
contains is beyond the confines Of our knowl-
edge. In vain did we search the dictionaries
of every language known to us; but in their
ample pages we found ii not. We do not in
innate that such word does not exist and
perhaps if we had the privilege of examining
certain vocabularies that the Hessian soldiers
in the Revolutionary war may have transmit
ted to their descendauts-among whom we
understand are The editors Of the Erdminer-
it might be found The only word in English
from which il could be derived is Sophomore"
If it is intended TO convey the same meaning,
we have no objection. We are only too glad
to be several grades below the Examiner in the
editorial class. We will have much time for
improvement before we reacn that senior bench
just behind which sits the editor of the En-
aminer, very indistinct shadow of the Bati-
more AmGicdn. Perhaps we owe an apology
for the iuartistic manner in which we sang
that wrath-kindlng requiem. We waited
long for the Examiner to perform it, but
finally despaired of its throat ever being
cleared of those charges Of fraud. Perhaps
when it finally succeeds in casting up its
phlega, and resumes Its favorite role of an
the dirge with more operatic effect than we
have done.

Did He?

Two hurdr q of the Warm SpIiAe Apac hes lately escaped from the San Carlos reservation, having surrendered and claimed that they were driven off by hunger, the Miner declaims against the hear lessness of the new agent in de frauding them of their rltions anG starving them. General kautZ soughtand receive d permission to station an army officer at San Car los to inspect the issue of rations. This was done. No extensive fraud could be practiced on the Indians without collision of the army officer. His presence and inspection were constant. Now either the Miner has something to take back, or it must sustain the inference that an officer of the infallible, immlculate army has actually made a "divvy."

REMARKABLY fine wheat is raised by the Pima and Maricopa Indinns on their reservation, some 200 miles east of Yuma. Their reservation lies along the Gill river and upon it's waters they de- pend entirely for irrigation. The fields Invariably belong to the women, they doing all the work with only occasional help from the men. Their whelt is of the kind raised in Sonora. When it Is in flower, they go through their fields carefully and pull up all weeds, stalks of blrlev etc. Ihey' reap with sickles and winnow by hand, throwing the grain higl in air during prevalence of wind. This blows out of it all chaff and and dust, It is carefully picked over by hand and every stone, stick or other foreign subStal ce taken out. The kernels are round, smooth and plump. The larger pllt of their crop is sold to trIders fJr clo hing and luXuries. Weight seems beyond their comprehen- sion and their sab are made by measure - usu llly a tin cup hold ing a little more than a quart. Some of the traders buy about d million pounds of their wheat an nu ally. The traders grain is st0r- ed loose in eltgrlnlrie5. A room nearly full of this uniformly clean wheat is handsome sight. Al the SENTINEL office is a sample Oi Indian grain received from the trading post of Austin & Dempsey, Montezuma.

Take the Land Back.

Nearly one half of this Territory is comprised within the lands with drawn from market for railroad subsidies. Arizona is less than 400 miles in length between it's north and south boundaries. For the Atlantic G Pacific subsidy WIS withdrawn from settlements strip, clear across Arizona, eighty miles in width. This strip takes in the entire valley of he Little Colorado east of San Francisco Mou tain and, defecting to the southwest, takes in m st of the best grazing and mineral country of Mohave cou"ty. For the Texas & Pacific has been reserved another eighty mile strip taking in the entire val leys of the Gila and Salt rivers and the best mining grounds of Pin: l county. 160 miles, out of less than DO, have been tied up and kept from the people for seven long years in the interest of railroad adventurerS; of men who depend ed on their wits for gettinga a rod built for them out of the public treasury and who have already been smart enough to secure, at expense of the people, the refusal of more land than would, in Eu- rope, be considered enough for an empire. We are getting tired of this subsidy business. If the nation is to pay out of it's treasury for these new roads, let the nation own them. If land is the only subsidy asked for, let the gift be made upon conditions of immediate :ur- vey and location at the recipients expense, sothat people may know just where they will be permitted to settle, and that alternate sec tions may be reclaimed from the wilderness j, let a condition of the gift be prompt application for patent after survey, so that rail-

In addition to the poles men, toned elsewhere. we learn, from Lieut.. Raade, Acting Signal officer in charge. that 100 redwood poles have been purchased from Gordon X Hazard, of San Diego, which will be planted over the sand hills west of Yuma. Of F. l..

And 100 new ones are on hand near Camp Thomas. The funds at Reade's disposal have been exhausted in making these purchases and the next tax on his energy will be tu getthe poles distributed and plant ed. The line being conducted under military auspices, it is fairly probable that otherwise unem- ployed army transportation will be used. Employees of the line give the Department commander credit for good will and assistance that is hardly to be inferred from utterances of Prescott papers. Ii is to be hoped. that the War Sec retary has included an appropria- tion for rebuilding the telegraph among his estimates; though a muggins, who tries to stop rail- roads, may have little appreciation of telegraphs.

SIGNAL FIRES.

Upon the mountain side last evening line
of fires appeared, which caused many COM
ments and much wonder among the lonely
wanderers along Carson street. Every one
wants to know what they meant and no one
can tell By climbing to the summit of pile
of nail kegs near the APPEAL office, we sue
ceeded in counting twelve distinct fires; they
were arranged in the form of an irregular
crescent. They follow the divide between
Ash and Rose Canyons, and evidently mean
something. Is it an uprising of the aborig. /?
Can it be heap pandango? Is it civil SER
vice reform? Is Hayes coming this way9 or,
What is it There is certainly something re-
markable in the peculiar character of the

in that shape, what shall we do with our boys?
