Moses is Ready.


 Charles Mckay passed through here last Monday, says the Goldendale (Or- egon) Sun of the 9th instant, carrying a dispatch from Gen. Howard to Chief Moses. He says that Moses has 1900 warriors is we'll armed and desperate A large part of his band IS composed of renegades from other tribes. The Indians on the reservation sympathize with Moses, with a few exceptions; and in case of an outbreak Moses would be reinforced by 4000 or 5000 reservation Indians. If this should be the case it would take 10000 troops to capture him. Moses says he doesn't want to fight, but if the whites want to fight he is ready, and if he is taken to a reservation he will be taken there dead.

THE northern Indian troubles are giving our little army plenty of out door exercise. All available troops are now being hastened to the west. Garrisons on the seaboard have been withdrawn, and heavy artillery regi- ments have been armed and drilled as infantry, and are en route to the seat of war. An official list of the stations of troops shows that there is only one regiment east of the Mississippi-the Eighteenth Infantry. It is intended to order that west also. Official reports show that the heavy artillery detach. ments, armed with muskets, are per. forming effective service.

sUTRo ENTERS THE ComsroCK.
The Tunnel Opened into the 1640
 Drift Of the Savage Mine.

VIRGINIA (Ney.), July S.-The con nection of the Sutro Tunnel with tn, Savage mine on the east drift of tn, 1640-foot level was made at 10 :45 thil evening. Sutro came through the hole and there was general hilarity anC
 oeer-drinking. Superintendents Gil lette, Patton and members of the pres. were present.
 CONSTRUCTION OF THE TUNNEL.
 Ground was broken for the Sutrc Tunnel on the 18th of October, 1869 The work has therefore required eight years, eight months and nineteen days to complete. The progress was very slow at tir2t, all drilling having beer done by hand; but in the Spring oi 1874, experiments with Burleigh drill having demonstrated the advantages to be derived from the use of that ma chine, carriage capable of support ing six of those drills while at work was made, and on the 22d of June, 1874, four were started. The progress was much moro rapid than ever before in the history of tunneling in the world, and on August ', of the same year, two more drills were put to work. This made six altogether. From that date the average progress was over 300 feet per month up to April, 1877, when, the header having entered the broad Comstock mineral belt, the heat be- came so intense that two drills had to be taken of the carriage. From that day the average monthly progress did not exceed 250 feet. Work has been uninterruptedly since ground was broken, but at times only two men were at work in tic tunnel. The great est progress was in December, 1875, when the header was advanced AT feet, and the least in October, 1870, when it was only advanced nineteen feet. The total length of the tunnel, ss stated in the official chart published last September, is 2O,170 feet. The tunnel being connected with the Com stock workings, the next move of MT. Sutro will doubtless be to start north and south drifts to connect will all the mines on the lode. The work has cost nearly s4,OO0,OO0.

win there be Legislature Next
 Year?

As the last legislature adjourned
 without making provisions for an ap- portionment for the next one it is 6 disputed question whether or not any officer has right to assume the duty and call an election for members to meet at the Capital next January. Without attempting to give ah opinion one way or the other we append the various provisions of law pertinent to the subject for the information of our readers.
 By Section of the Organic Act the same powers, &c., are conferred upon the members of the Legislative Assembly as were given to those of New Mexico blythe Organic Act of that Territory. By Section of the later Act the members of the council are to hold office for two years and the members of the house for one year Therefore, the members of the last legislature of Arizona are functus officio.
 By Section 1 of the Act of the legis- lsture approved February 16, 1871, it is provided that "There shall be held throughout the Territory, upon the Tuesday after the first Monday of November, A. D. 1872, and every two years thereafter, an election for members of the legislative assembly and such other officers as may be re- quired by law to be chosen at such election, to be called the general cleo tion."
 Sections g and Il of the Census Act of February l5, 1875, are as follows:
 Section Q, "That on the first Mon day on August, A. D. 1876, it shall be the duty of the Territorial Secretary in the presence of the Governor of the Territory, at 10 o'clock, a. m., to open said census returns and verify them. Should the Secretary be absent or have left the Territory, then the Gov ernor shall open the census returns in the presence of the Territorial Treas urer and Auditor, and should the Gov ernor be absent, then the Secretary of the Territory shall open the census returns in the presence of the Ter ritorial Treasurer and Auditor; and shall proceed to make an apportion- ment for members of the House of Representatives and for members of the Council of the Legislative Assem- bly, among the several counties accord ing te their population, as shown by the census returhs of the respective counties"
 Section il, "That it shall be the duty of the Governor, when issuing his proclamation for the general cleo ton to be held d. D., 1876, to specify how many members of either house of the Legislative Assembly, each county shall be entitled toi as the same shall be found under the provision of this Act"
 The last Legislature passed an ap- portionment bill which was vetoed by the Governor and failed to pass over the veto. Delegate Stevens introduced at the last session of Congress 8 bill to remedy the difficulty but ;t failed to become law.
 Does the last apportionment still hold good? Has the Governor any right to specify in his next election proclamation how many members of either house each county is entitled to haves Has any one such right :

London Press on the Congress
 Results.

LONDON, July 15.-The London press favorably comments on the results of the Congress, the Daily News only excepted. The Times sum- ming up the labors of the Congress, says: It has made changes which transfer an Empire; has removed 8 long standing course of discontent; has pscifed, we may hope, provinces which were torn by disseBsiOn and misrule, and has placed a barrier between rival forms of implacsble bigotry; has stopped many avenues of foreign intrigue, and if it has abridged the power of the Porte, it has given peace to Europe.
