suit our Milwaukee friends.

Private EIaE,sl Claims.

We can hear of no action, on
the part of Congress, on the sub
iect of private land claims i'll Ari-
zOna. Law and instructions pro-
vide for investigation into this
matter by the Surveyor-General
of this Territory. But nothing
can be done in this direction un-
til some money is appropriated for
beginning and carrying on the
work. Is our Delegate sick, or
asleep? 1t is of the greatest i'm
portance to Arizona that that this
troublesome question should be
promptly disposed of. If there
are any valid land claims here,
miners and settlers want to know
where they are, and to have their
boundaries defined.

An Enormous Mill for Peruvian
Silver Mine.

Rankin, Brayton IL Co. of the Pacific
Iron Works of this city, have recently en-
tered into a contract with William II.
Cilley for Tie construction of an eighty
stamp silver mill OF the most improved
design for the celebrated Cerro de Pasco
mines, Peru.
MI. Cilley was partner with the late
Harry Meiggs i'll most Of his gigantic rail
road operations in South America, and he
and his associates are now completing the
contracts entered into with Peruvian Gov
ernment before Mr.. Meiggs' death, among
which was the construction Of the Arroyo
railroad and the development and opera
ton of the mines above referred to This
road runs from Lima over the summit of
the Andes, and is to connect with the fer
tile valleys of the Eastern slope. 1t is
now completed some eighty miles from
build to bring it to the above named mines.
This enormous mill, with one exception
the largest ever built, will weigh some
600 tons, and vessel will be chartered to
carry 1t to the port of destination. As the
machinery has to be packed on mules over
the uncompleted portion of the road, it
will all be made in sections, no piece ex-
ceeding 800 pounds in weight.
The Cerro de Pasco mines have been the
richest and most famous in the worlds
history, having produced according to the
records previous to the year
1926 the enormous sum of $402,OO0000,
and were only worked to the depth of POO
feet They are located in the heart of the
Andes at an elevation of 14,00O feet, and
some $50 miles east of the City of Lima,
and are fully described in Humboldt's His
tory of New Spain, published in the early
part of the present century.-Bulletia.

Ventilation.

Many persons complain of always get
ting up tired in the morning. This is often
due to defective ventilation or from using
an undue amount Of bcd-clothcs and bed
ding. Feather beds arc too soft and yield
ing, and partially envelop the sleeper, thh5
producing prOfusc pcrspiration. The hab-
it Of lying too much under blankets is
also very pcrnicious, by reason OF The car
bonic acid eXhalcd by the sleeper being
respircd. Again, it is Il common error to
suppose tl.at by simply opening a window
Il little at the top, room can be ventla-
ted. People forget that for proper vcnti-
lation there must be kept an inlet and
outlet for the air.. In bedrooms there is
often neither, and if there is e-pIace
it is generally closed up. Again, it is Il
mistake to suppose that foul air goes to
the top, but the chief impurity, the car
bonic acid, falls to the bottom. There is
nothing so eflicacious in removing the
lower stratum of air as the ordinary fire
place, especially if there is fire burning.

August 3, one Ambrosio Armijo

reached the Colorado with a large
flock of sheep. They were men,
aced by party of thirty Yumas,
and sent to the post for protection
as American citizens. A party
was sent out under Lieut.. SWee-
ney, which reported a combined
force variously estimated at from
400 to 800 Yumas, Mohaves, Apa-
ches and Maricopas, and hostile,
as the shepherds camp had been
attacked and one man killed.
Heintzelman at once started out
with about 100 men. A party of
mounted Yumas discovered their
approach and attacked them with
rifles and arrows. A charge was
made, when they scattered pre-
cipitately. Two soldiers were
wounded by arrows. Jose Maria,
a Yuma chief, shortly after sent
word that he wanted to have a
talk. This was held, and the Yu-
mas proposed q truce until they
had harvested their crops, when
they would all come in and make
Il peace. They were informed that
then was the time to make peace;
that later IL the season the whites
might not be. willing to listen to
them. The Indians were mount,

pedition of ninety men started
up the river. On the Goth they
reached the present site of
Roods' ranch, passing several ran
cherias and fields evidently just
abandoned in haste. A fine old

Late in December, 1881, capt.
Davidson, who had been sent tC
relieve Sweeney at Camp Yuma,
abandoned this post which it had
cost so much trouble and hardship
to establish. The inopportuneness
of this act caused great embar-
rasSment and loss to the govern
ment, besides affording a source
of eXultation to the Indians at a
time when it was most polite to
awe them and to make an exhibit
tion of force. A surveying party,
under Lieut.. Hendricks, had ar
rived at Camp Yuma, affOrding
an opportunity for furnishing the
Indians which should not have
been lost January p, 1852, the
bark Annieta arrived at San Die
go with Fitzgerald's First Dra-
goOns. Heintzelman took Com
pany e of the Dragons, and Com
panies c, D, II and I, Of the Sec
ond Infantry, and started back for
Camp Yuma, arriving February
%. All the boats and provisions
sunk in the river, and the stores
cached by Capt. Davidson when
he abandoned the post, had been
removed by the Indians, and all
the improvements burned. Lieut..
Stoneman afterwards General,
commanding Department of Ari-
zOna) went down the river about
fifteen miles and recovered some
boats and scoWs which the Indians
were using as a ferry. The Yu-
mas were giving much trouble.
They robbed every person who
passed the river, declared them
selves at war with the Americans,
and threatened TO kill all whom
they met. Heintzelman's COM
mand was worse off for supplies
and funds, than when he first es-
tablished the post, the previous
winter.

Colorado March 3, with a party of
forty men, to go down the river

for whom each of the others
roll up 4 volume during the week to be
discharged at the next opportunity.
Now, these people will please to re-
member that whether they interrogate or
not, the Democratic party have nomina-
ted by ballot gentleman as candidate
for Mayor of this city. They invited
every white man to vote at the public
mination, whether he was a Democrat
or not, If in voting he was willing to vote
for the nominee under these fair, open
and honest rules, the nomination was
held in the most public manner, and John
p. Almond was chosen by one of the
most surprisingly decisive votes ever
given. Thirty-three hundred votes were
cast for the five gentlemen contesting
and Mi. Almond received 1749, major
ity over all the rest combined, and he ac-
cepted the nomination. There is, there
fore pledge from each of the $500 voters
to vote for Mr.. Almond, and he will
certainly be elected, since only about
4, 400 voters are expected to vote ON the
3rd of September. Of these Mr.. ALL
mond will receive again, as he has al
ready received, q large majority. We
have only to contrast the vote at the
nomination elections to see this. There
were 1T49 votes cast for Mr.. Almond, and
1887 for Mr.. Gallagher; while Mr.. Fraim
q republican, who received S46 votes, de,
clares that he received n majority of the
legal VOTES cast at the Republican noni-
nation, and that, therefore, the great
mass Of the votes received by Mr. Gal
lagher are fraudulent and illegal votes,
and that Gallagher is, therefore, impos-
ing himself upon the party, and as a
consequence does not deserve the united
support of the Republicans. These rea-
sons are sufficient in our view, why the
foundry temperance people should not
interfere with the nominations Of the
Democratic party. That party is respon-
sible for It's candidates acts If elected,
and until the temperance party runs its
candidate and proposes to be responsible
for his acts, the two parties do not bear
such equal relations to each other a. to
20 into a trade, whereby all people might
be deceived. The Democratic party is
not trading party, and we don't propose
to advocate the election Of any trading
politician to any office. We know moth
ing about MIR. Almonds opinions on this
matter. But he has accepted the nomi
nation of the Democratic party and that
party means to hold him to the discharge
of the duties of the Office IN an honora
BILE, upright way, as becomes a sober
steady Christian gentleman and we un,
dersta nd him to have already pledged
himself to the Democratic party to dc
this. We believe he will, and feel inclin-
ed to offer bail that he will because he
has nbver deceived any party. But his
opponent has deceived all parties and is
as much of an eel in politics as can be
found in the great flood of corruption
which the Republican party has thrown
up in the last ten years.

THE "mills of the gods grind slowly"
A few years ago the Democrats were
not permitted to vote in Delaware with
out taking an oath that would have been
equivalent to perjury, and all the decent
Repub ublcans with blush saw their
Democratic friends turn away from the
election rather than thus be inviegled inte
swearing to lie, even for so valued a
privilege as the inalienable franchise. -
That once great Republican party Is now
PROSTATE and in the dust for its sin
against humanity in thus attempting to
draw men into the commission of an un.
righteous act. Thus does "history repeat
ITSELF and evil deeds recoil upon those
who commit them.
