New Paper al Yuma aud Tucsop.

We notice by the Sentinel that q press and material for new paper have arrived al Yuma. This must be an absurd movement on the part of some semi-lunatic. Yuma has one live, able paper to which it extends q very weak support. The necessity for a new paper and how it expects To live are conundrums with us.
 The new paper about to be started in Tucson is much needed. The pub. lie good demands an organ tha win fairly represent the true interests of the people and the rapid developments Of that section. Of course the Dos Republieas is now published ai Tue son, bCi large majority of the people who are interested in that section d. not read Spanish. hence the necessih Of an English paper under just anu able management.

Col oNIZ!NC The NEST.

One of the best examples of the
manifold advantages derived from
colonizing in the West is the town Of
Greeley, Colorado. In the year 1870,
the colony was formed. It was COM
posed largely of Eastern people
young men and women, muscular,
vigorous assiduous of purpose
were prepared to meet the hard-ships
attending life in new country.
Thither they went, merchants, ar
tisans, tillers of the soil, housewives
and their numerous train OfattendantS
all seeking homes and fortunes in the
uncultured, unpeopled regions of the
West. They sought spot in the
praries where nature had been par
ticularly lavish of her gifts, and there
they reared their town, giving it the
name ola great American philosopher,
philanthropist, statesman and jour-
nalist-Horace Greeley. They set
themselves diligently at work to
effect permanent organization and
commence the duties of life. They
built fence around forty thousand
acres of land; they excavated two
canals for purposes of irrigation--one,
forty-two miles, the other, twelve
miles in length--and turned into them
an ever running stream; they erected
substantial homes, warehouses, mills,
churches. ETC., and, before two years
had elapsed, there stood upon that
broad. open space, us pretty a mania
ture city as one could wish to see.
Nature has smiled upon their efforts
and their crops have been large.
They have sustained rapid but
permanent growth. Business has
increased with them and now they
want manufactures. During the past
| fiscal year their mercantile transac.
tions amounted to over a million dol
lars. Last year within their colony
fence were produced $4,000 bushels
of wheat. This year the yield was
100000 bushels. At a single -four
mill was manufactured and sold $3.50,
600 worth of -four. The colony is to
day composed of nearly twenty-five
hundred prosperous and happy people
This is an example worth the con
sideration of the unemployed and thu
poorly employed in our Over-crowdeC
cities. While here they exc out g

that the Greenback party was not re-

cupied medium position, never

Stewart & Co., or Clahin & Co. In
October last Mr.. Robbins died, and
his estate being wound up, the credit
of the firm has been somewhat crit
icised because of doubt of its sue
cess without his assistance. In August
the firm reported it's liabilities to be
$124, 900, and it's assets 1924, 900. This
was Immediately after an assessment
amounting to $4,000 had been made
upon the individual members of the
firm. To-day the firm made an as
signment to George Gilbert, of Nc
Kessin & Robbins, the wholesale
druggists.
AS an instance of the shrinkage of
values, the firm had been compelled
to sell for Is cents goods that it had
purchased last spring at s37 IL cents.
This shrinkage has been the result of
the immense sales of goods at auction
consequent on the recent retirement
or failure of so many firms. When
the members put in fresh capital in
August last they honestly believed
that, with the large crops and other
signs of increasing business. a fair
future was in store for them, but
they had been sadly disappointed.

THE MURDER OF BECKETT

The more we study the subject the
more we are inclined to the belief that
the whole system of patent laws needs
radical reconstruction, if not total
abolition. Atpresent they are simply
the cover for great and unjust
monopolies. Here is an extract from
the Boston Commonwealth which con-
tains great deal of truth:
An article on Patents in the
Unitarian RerieW, while on the whole
in favor of our patent laws, mentions
the multiplicity Of small, worthless
patents, the litigation so often involved
and the expense to the country, as
among the evils: also the monopoly
resulting from the frequent purchase,
by wealthy manufacturers and COM
panies. of all patents in any given
department, thereby depriving the
general community of whatever
benefits are to be derived therefrom.
Then there is the fact of wonderful
improvements in past ages, in the
smelling of ores. in pottery and glass
the art of printing, the discovery of
the compass and gunpowder, and the
origin. in Egypt, of tools end imple-
ments in domestic life, and in
mechanics owing nothing to patent
laws--enthusiasts working without
such stimulants, by inspiration, just
as Shakespeare and Milton wrote and
Raphael painted. 1t is stated that
Switzerland has no patent laws; that
Holland abolished her laws in the
matter in 1869; and that until very
recently Prussia has granted but few
patents, mo less statesman than
Prince Bismarck having advocated
their entire abolition while in
England, the great mart of the
manufacturing business. the subject
has been most earnestly debated,
Lords Derby, Selborne and Granville,
Prof. Thorold Rogers. and Sir William
Armstrong and Scott Russell, both
inventors. being against it. with the
late i. :. Mill. Prof. Playfair. Sir d.
| Brewster. and Mr.. Bessemer. an
inventor. together with other inven
tors and political economists. arrayed
on the other side. The advantages OF
our system are represented as such
that no attack has been made. and
scarce discussion of the subject until
the speech Of Mr.. >ayler in the house
of Representatives. in 1874. Among
the advantages OF our patent laws are
the necessary rewards to meritorions
and neady inventors. NAV improve
ments otherwise being of slow growth
if not altogether lost. and the eiu
eating influences of the Patent Office
through its collection of models. The
