Phenix Letter.
PH9NIx, June 18th.

PHGNIX, June l5th. EDITOR SENTINEL: "Vox populi vox Oei," said the old Latlns, but if the voice of God is as changeable ss the popular opinion of this day and region, our pre- conveived ideas of the stability of the h. anite must undergo radical change. When Ed Munroe Firman came into the place and delivered himself up to justice, admitting the killing of William Rowe, public sympathy was strongly in his fa- vvr. His examination was concluded yes- terday, before Justice Rumberg, and though several witnesses were examined at length, nothing was elicited that was not touched upon in my last letter. Still the popular clamor now is, "a deliberate, cold -blooded murder and he should swing for it." He is bound over to the next term of court without bail. The example Of the sentence of the two petty thieves last week, or some other cause, has had a very beneficial effect in ridding this place of a number of worthless tramps and bum.
 
 past More are left who would do well to follow suit. Notwithstanding there are thirteen headers running daily in this val lev, farmers find it difficult to get their crops harvested as soon as they wish, all grain ripening about the same time. The yield is extraordinary, In a former letter gave the acreage of wheat and barley, and an estimate of the yield. To this es; timate should now be added twenty per cent. for wheat and fifty for barley. New four is in the market from Veil's mill, sell ing at six dollars per hundred. In two weeks Smith, Stearns & Go. will start up their mill and put first class four at $ and second class s4 The new steam thresher is doing capital work. and 5000 pounds are accredited to it as one days work.

Hear Them Squeak.

The St0r man scolds the SEN T1NEL for wanting the Military Telegraph Line between here and San Diego taken down and re- erected between here and Mo
 have County. He says: That Mohave County should have tel egraphic communication no one perhaps will deny" Rerhdps!! He says the SENTINEL advocates monopoly" Mohave County must have telegraphic commn- nication. The United States has telegraph line that is now use. less. The moment it is torn down the Western Union Tele- graph Company will compete for Arizona business ny building a line in its place, and there will be no monopoly. That line was built hy soldiers labor and army transportation. Its cost upon the Government books is only repre- sented by the bare cost of mate. rial. At this price the. Western Union Company wants 10 buy it. and the Star has cheek enough tt advocate such thieving purchase by that monopoly. There are no appropriations for buying and building a new line 10 Mohave, and the Stdr knows it We can
 not see what grudge if has against Mohave County, unless it is that no one there subscribes for it. l. takes poor way to compel sub scriptions. The government has in Arizona 8 lot of wagons and many mules doing nothing and 8 lot of soldiers solely engaged de
 vouring rations. These could bt more profitably employed in re' moving the San Diego telegraph line to Mohave County. The only outlay would be for stean- boat freight along the river; and this expense would have to be met. even by new line. The howlers of monopoly" seem una ble 10 possess common sense till 1T is beaten into their heads with . club. The San Diego papers can not see that, if our programme is carried out, they will be better of than now. They will have tele- graph line to Arizona anyhowand wilt be benefited by the expendi
 ture of the w. U. Co.'S. money in. building it. That outside papers should show little regard, for Mo have County is their own business But it is d burning shame that our Territorial press while cap ping fer Mohave business by idle fiatteries and by an occasions! stick full of types about mail ir- regularitie-) should, in the inter est of any one Telegraph Com
 pany, refuse to put their shout ders to the wheel like men. when a chance offers to give our Mohave friends substantial assistance.
