The San FrnncIscO Post and
 Arizona.

As our readers are aware, Col. Rich
 ard J. Hinton, principal editor of The
 Post, is in Arizona for the twofold purpose of personally examining the merits and wants of the Territory with view to have the paper speak intelli- gently and correctly thereof, and also to collect maternal for a hand book as per advertisement in THE CITIZEN. In addition, Col. Hinton has engaged MT. Fred. c. Pratz to visit important parts of this Territory and then pass into Mexico and go as far as the City of Mexico, as special correspondent of The Post, and hIs work will begin in June. Another Arizona correspondent is writing enthusiastically for il. As soon as Col. Hinton returns, he will employ an experienced and accom- plished writer now resident near San Bernardino, to canvass every town, mining camp and agricultural district, and even where no settlements exist. It is intended to have this the most thorough personal examination ever made of the Territory. The writer has passed the middle age of life and his experiences have been such that he will see and recognize merit wher- ever it exists, and while not over look ing unfavOrable points will not exag- gerate them Col Hinton is now writ Ing letters and editorial matter for The Post, and he does so after seeing and examining the country to far greater extent than most men representing metropolitan journals ever do. While here, he went nearly to the Sonora line up the Santa Cruz, and spent sey- eral days among the rich ore in the Santa Rita mountains. He has em- ployed competent persons to furnish him facts in special matters on which he has not time to post himself; also letters to superintendents of mines and others for information best known to them. On Wednesday,, he left for Florence and thence north ward, intending to see prominent points and secure competent residents to sup ply him with facts regarding other places. He is a very industrious man and does not hesitate to do work neces- sary in his line and which his time per mits.
 It IS so rare that paper of the char acter of of The Post, sends out such a representative, that the above remarks are regarded due the journal and man it.

Telegraph Rates Reduced.

As we anticipated. the Atlantic and Pacific telegraph company have made quite a reduction in dispatches. The following rates have been adopted
 From Prescott, Camp Verde, Wicken burg, Phenix, Florence, Tucson, and all points on |. s. Military line, ten words to Los Angeles, S1O0; to San Francisco, $L50; to all principal east ern cities, S250.
 This is quite a reduction, and it is now in order to hear from the Western Union via San Diego. The circular issued by the A. & P. company, re- quests that operators on the Military line, be asked to transfer dispatches 10 its line at Yuma, which shows that un- less the sender gives this direction, the dispatches will go via San Diego. Un- less the Western Union gives as low or lower rates, as matter of course the Atlantic and Pacific line will have the Arizona business.
 This is the first reduction on rates of any kind, since the railway and new telegraph reached the Colorado. Pas sage is higher from Yuma, all things considered, than of old by San Diego, and freight no less than via the Gulf We gain Tn time, and in that respect there is a real gain.
 Since the above was put in type, we a.e informed that the operators on the Military line have received no orders to send messages by the A. & P, and that until they receive such orders, they will continue to send via San Die go. NIT. Barden of the Tucson office understands that until the Chief Sig nal officer at Washington gives direc- tions to transfer business at Yuma, that such transfer cannot be made, and therefore the old rates must still be paid. The Western Union must either reduce its rates, or the Signal Office will very likely give the order; and yet the Signal Office may of necessity have to maintain amicable relations with the W. |. Line.

Tidal Wave at GaviOta.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 10.-A dispatch from Gaviota, San Luis ObispO county, to the Merchants Exchange says there was a great tidal wave there this morn ing. It commenced about ten minutes after seven, the sea rising twelve feet, then it receded, and inside of twenty minutes rose and fell three times. No damage reported to property.
 The San Diego Union commenting on the above, says that it was probably caused by an earthquake out at sea. The great Japan earthquake years ago made an extraordinary rise and fall of the tide on this coast. The UnIon also mentions the fact that the day before the great earthquake of 1868, which caused such damage in San Francisco, a remarkable rise of the tide was vlsi- ble on the coast of Los Angeles county.

Progress of Hot Springs Indians.
SILVER ClTY, NEW MEXICO,
 Ho,- 1917

SILVER CITY, NEW MEXICO, May ', 1877.
 EDITOR CITIZEN: Since 1 wrote you last, the Indians of the Hot Springs Agency have travelled half the distance 10 their new home at San Carlos. The main body left the agency on May l, and came over the trall under charge of MT. NJ. A Sweeny They arrived here yesterday afternoon without trou- ble or accident by the way. I counted them this afternoon and found 4j4 present. My last count at the agency on April 30, was 453. You will notice one has been added; this addition was made in the same old way, presume. 1 congratulate myself that we have lost none during the first half of the trip, and am persuaded that none will leave during the remainder of the jour ney home.
 There was only one case of insubor- dination Et the agency, and tha. oc- cured during count on April 9. I had placed all the women and children in line and had placed the men separate 1; when we were ready to count, we ob- served one man sitting alone near the employees quarters The interpreter told him to fall in," but he seemed well cOntented where he was and con- .cluded to stay, Two of the police sug. gested to him that his place!was in the line. He differed with them, so they each took an arm to lead him out, but he jerked away from them. Just here the "great and good tin the fiattering adjectiyes of the Miner agent appear ed on the scene, and ordered the in subordinate to the guard house, but the insubOrdinate refused to go. l caught Ia gun from policeman and repeated my order, wheTeupOn this wild red brother reached for his knife, indica- ung that he had concluded to carve me for his supper. Having no desire to experience that "unkindest cut of .all," l reversed arms at double-quick time, and this untamed manipulator of the knife struck his head in a very ln- discreet manner and with considerable force against the butend of my gun.
 This slight indulgence in calisthen- ics was witnessed by the entire tribe of Hot Springs Indians. The moral ef- feet was good and none have since ex- pressed desire to carve the "great and good"
 On April 30, I requested the military authorities to assume supervision of the reservation and 60 treat as hostile all Indians found thereon after my de- parture. I came by the road with the prisoners and all are safely here, and will all leave tomorrow for San Car los via Burro mountains and the Gila. As soon as the Indians are located at San Carlos, I will write you again.

Attention, Business Men.

If San Francisco does not now, in every way, shape and form, stretch out her commercial feelers and get a thor ough, strong and lasting grip on this section, her business men in every pur- suit will stand loss which they can never regain. A population whose growth will be something marvellous is close upon us. The necessities of the influx must be met and will be met, and your city should strive to meet them. Men will not buy shares ill mines of iron, lead, copper or quick silver when they can buy shares in the richest gold and silver mines ever dis covered; and while there IS no end of iron and other metals here, it will be some time before there will be blast furnaces and foundries built to work them. No man will, for many years, stop along the Madeira to mIne for iron, although it is here in an almost pure state and in inexhaustible quantities, when he can push along few miles further to work gold and silver in the Aztec District Where are the agents of your foundries and machine shops, your englne builders and your powder works? Now is the time for them to come to the front. Here are places for custom mills, and there is no doubt that mill property will be extremely remuneratIve here. Do not imagine that the Southern States will not push for thIs trade harder and stronger than they ever pushed before. St. Louis and other western and southern cities are not unrepresented here. There is not mining district m the Territory but will soon be overrun with specula- tors of every kind.
 THE NATURAL ROADWAY
 Into New Mexico and on to the East runs up the valleys of the Santa Cruz and SOnoita, along one base of the Santa Ritss, and on the other side will come the railway from Guayma, in So- nora, thus giving that section facilities for transportation unequalled by any portion of the Territory. Our Me1i- can friends understand this matter thoroughly, and, despite the troubled condition of their country, are striving hard to get their line of railway be- tween Guaymas and Tucson into shape. Nothing, however, has given such an impetus to the project as the discover les in the section spoken of. Two years ago, when some Americans were work ing to find the means 10 make the con- .cession for tine Guaymas and Tucson railroad aYailab.e, they were met with the statement: "There is nothing in the country 10 build a railway for" There is q very different state of affairs apparent today, and, before some of these sleepy headed people wake up, your great railway builders will have their road continued from the Colorado on almost an air line to Tucson, and thence on to the eastward, subsidy or no subsidy,-Arizona Correspondence San Francisco Post.

The Injunction Case.

The motion for the dissolution of the injunction restraining Secretary HOyt from removing the capital, was heard before Judge French on Wednes day, and at thIs writing, (Friday noon) no decision has been filed with the clerk.
 The next day some infamous liar tel egrapned to Prescott that on Wedncs- day evening a delegation of citizens called on the Judge with view to in. fluence his decision, and mentioned as we are nformed-ourself by name as leading the same. The telegram has been published in the Miner and of course InlamOuSly commented on, but in this instance the paper will not be SO much to blame as in many other of its acts The writer of the telegram evidently knew he lied when he wrote it, but perhaps thinking Jo make tenn porary point against one or more indi- viduals and thereby against this town and county, did not hesitate to send the libclous dispatch. Just the lxact contents of it we do not know, but will Tn due time. Judge French will not corroborate the dispatch; and fur ther, when on Wednesday morning, the Judge opened a conversation with us on the subject, we promptly told him we had not conversed with him about it, nor did we intend to do il. These are plain truths and any state uent 10 the contrary Is infamously false.

THE San Diego people still have hopes that Congress will yet give such aid to a competing overland railway on the 32d parallel, as will insure its construction. President Hayes is re- ported as in favor of such measure, and if this be true, the fact will have great weight with Congress. San Diego has rare population. For every measure that looks to the adyan- tage of the town, the people are always substantially unit. They ought to succeed in their railway efforts. It would seem as if the first outlet for them, will be via the Southern Utah, which is now nearly to St. George and can no more profitably stop there than the Southern Pacific can at Yuma The more competing railways, the bet ter for the people.
