DISCUSSION.


The report was considered by sections, and
| the only part which met with any serious objec-
ton was that relating to the use OF preventive
medicines.
Dr.. Byford tried to have tlclnnguagc amend
| ed SO that it would read that such medicines do
harm, and should not be giyen at all he con-
| tended that they could not be taken for any
/ length Of time without interfering with digcs-
tiou aud assimilation, and causing Injury. There
was widespread belief Dr hope that absolution
for or tie violation Of known sanitary laws
might be gotten by swallowing some bolus or
MIXTURE aud it was because of the falsity Of
this that be desired the meeting to express it.
self definitely on the point. Having seen every
thing tried that had been announced Us pre-
ycntlve agency, aud having found in his own ex-
periencc and in his reading OF authors who llau
tried them, he was CONVINCED that there was not
AL authentic example in which tne7 had wrought
other than harm.

bours, and eleven took the disease md i've did
not. As lar as his experience went, 1t had no
preventive virtues.
DR.. Iugals remarked that as str5ng a case
could be made out from authorities in favor as
against the use Of preventive medicines. While
hc had never seen any beneficial ELECTS derived
from them, he had prescribed them for families
who wanted them.
Dr.. johnson urged, as there were doubts, they
should express themselves cautiously.
The question was taken on DR.. ByfOrd's
amendment, and it was declared adopted by a
vote OF IS to 90.
Dr.. Fitch moved reconsideration, and 4 sec
ond vote stood 81 for and so against.
The farness Of the count being questioned,
third -.sdiyisioa' - took place, and the vote
yeas, 80; nays, 33was accepted as final:
The report was then adopted as whole.
Dr. H0llister offered the following:

sion at Springfield. and asanre them Of our earnest
desire Tint their efforts may be successful iu Sc

tion as may be nceued to secure the creation Of

Committee.
On motion. the following were appointed

SAN CARLOS AGENCY.

Last Saturday, dispatches credit Inspec- for Vandever with remarks that he is not likely to admit as his own, unless he is more stupid and ignorant than he has credit for. He is charged with saying that if the order 10 station . military officer at the San Carlos is carried out, the worst results would follow If this is supplemented by adding ito the Indian Ring in Tucson, ' sll right, nobody will object. and nearly everybody will agree to it.
 That DO Agent of the least honesty or manliness or seit-respcct would submit to the same" we believe to be the sentiments of the Tucson Ring, and not of Gen. Van dever, for he. as Indian Inspector. should know that the order is entirely in accordance with paragraph 20sS Revised Statutes, which makes 1t imperative that the Agent and a military officer shall be present at all issues 10 Indians, and, that the present order has been issued at the request of the Commissioner of Indian affairs, and that it certainly will be carried out, let the consequences be what they may.
 That the same logic would require civil officers to issue rations and forage in the Army" is not logical in the least There is wide difference between issuing rations to soldiers and issuing to indians The for mer know what they are entitled to, and the remedy if they do not get it; besides, issues 10 troops are made in the presence of any number of witnesses. to people who know what they should get, and who can look out for their own interests.
 The white-washing report on the San Car los Agency, We gre inclined to believe to be true, for we did not expect any other. h. dian Inspectors do not consider it their duty to expose an Agent, even if they could. But when their advent is heralded in ad- vance, and they make this examination un- der the guidance and management of the Agent, they see nothing but what it is intended they should see. We should think, however, he might have seen the 545 acres of land culti- ,ated by the Idians. whence came the 2.333 bushels of wheat, 2,500 bushels of corn, zoo bushels of oats and barley, 250 bushels of vegetables, and 3j0 tons of hay. Also, the very rapid progress these Indians are making in agriculture; their 5000 sheep and other herds of horses and cattle Ali those who know anything about the San Carlos Reservation, know just how much truth there is in this wonderful progress, and we think Gen. Vandever knows also, if he would tell.

DEMOCRATIC POW-wOW.

IL has been whispered that the succession to the Con- gressiouai delegateship is to be provided for, but the election thereto is seventeen months away. and political bargains and promises to be fulfilled seventeen months after date, are apt to be of small market value.

QUARTZ MIIL--Thc Zalida mining com
 pany have ordered through II. E. Murray, agent. two-stamp quartz mill. This IS a
 move in the right direction, and one that should be followed by others who own mines containing ore of untold richness. The Ia lida company had intended Ia ship their ore to san Francisco. but upon more mature consideration decided to purchase a two stamp mill which is a fac-simile of the large quartz mills, only of 8 miniature scale. These mills can be reached by very many prospecto-s, as they cost but trilc. hgura- lively speaking, ant there is hardly mine oi note in the county but what can pay for one of these wonderful little mills with the proceeds from a Ion of rich rock The amount saved in freight on few tons of ore from Arizona to san Francisco would more than pay for mill. and save much trouble in shipping, would be the means of gi,ing the owners chance Co work their ores at home. prospect othcr lead, and give employ
 menf to idle men. who are numerous, and
 have a tendency to help build up the min
 ing interests of ths Territory. Then again,
 if ores are shipped to San Francisco for sale
 or reduction. the owner is compelled Co sub
 init 10 the assays there, and be shaved just
 what the purchaser deems proper 'o ask.
 Look st this as We may, there are none but
 what will admit that it is most prudent to
 work our rich ores here at home, and Co thls
 end all that is needed iS backbone and cour-
 are to order machinery. where parties are
 satisfied that their mines will justify ths act.
