MIR. Tiidnp is growing restless nm
der the overwhelming evidence Of guilt
that is heaped on him by the Florida
dispatches. A Washington dispatch 10
the n. Y. Times saws that "l,e Is pre-
pairing statement disclaiming all c,n.
neciiOn with aud responsibility for. anv
cipher dispatches proposing corrupt
use of money To influence the action OF
the Returning Board." A. this is about
the only thing thar is left tor him to do.
il is not surprising that he should pur-
sue this course, trusting that some will
believe him innocent, even il the dis
patches are true. On this subject. the
y. y. Herald justly says:
Nobody can believe that Mr. Tilleu was
ignorant Of the contents of cipher dispatches
sent 20 his own house relating to a msiter
which - nearly aud 80 deeply concerned him.
10 a matter which occupied all hi. thoughts
and kept him In inccs>ant anxiety during iha;
criiira period II i impossible for any ration
al human creature to believe that Mr.. Tilicn
was ignorant of the contents Of any genuine
dispatch received at or sent from his house IN
the very crisis Of his political fortunes. II the
dispatch authorizing the payment Of the $50

any Of them had possessed the money what

False Statement.

JOHN P. CLUM, passed through town n Thursdays stage bound for Flor nee. He states that he will be a can. iidate from Pinal county for Con 'gress.
 The above appeared in the Salt River Herald of the 18th instant, and is neither smart, funny nor true. That organ has already won an unenviable reputation for the manufacture of news. and the above item is a fair sample of this unprofessional trait. To be can- didate for Congress is nothing to be ashamed of, but it is annoying to have ones own words and intentions mis- represented We made no such state ment 10 the simple manager of the Herald, and if we had such an inn portant announcement to make we would employ some rlore reliable medium than the Salt River news manufactory.

SECOND VOICE FROM THE
 TOHRS
Litigation I'm the New Mining
 Camp.

Now in the first year of the estab- llshment of the Tombstone District, and while the great mines thereof were still in an undeveloped condition, there cometh dissension among the people thereof, and grievous dispute, so that to this day it waxeth stronger, and gathereth unto itself the bitterness of gall. It so happened that Williams, one of the rulers of the great mine called the Grand Central, great man who rejoiceth in his strength, and who rejoiceth also in the wine of Gods, lifted up his voice and spake what was in him. Behold, said he, what l have wrought, and what my hands have done. Have 1 not digged in the earth and brought the precious metals hid away in the bowels thereof? Have l not been, for many days, on a bust with the brave warriors from Huachu- ca9 and have they not paid many pieces of silver that I might be re- freshed? Yea verify, they were liberal with their talents and profuse with their good fellowship, and yet not one jot or title of the Grand Central de- sireth these warriors. Noi no! such a thought shall meet with shame and decision. I will sell the Grand Gen. tral and the festivity shall continue sol long as shekel remaineth. And heI went s.raightway and made covenants to dispose of more cubits length than falleth to his share. Whereat, Jack surnamed Boyer, a one-half owner therein, was exceeding wroth and in his vexation cuss words did issue from his mouth. And he went forth from his tent and consulted with the learned doctors of the law, and found wisdom in their words, which rejoiceth him, for in the eyes of the law the covenant of Williams availeth him nothing. And behold the people wait inl peace that judgment may be revealed unto them Oh! ye brave warriors off the tribe of Samuels, with sweet syrups shall ye ensure insects, but don't let Tucson lawyers get ahead of you. InI the camp where dwelleth Richard, Ed ward, Albert and Thomas, peace abid- eth and all are happy, each after his own heart. And behold Edward the stalwart who, like Nimrod is a mightyl hunter, whose leaden arrow carrieth destruction to the lordly buck, hath gone forth with Parsons, the short off stature, but mighty in toil, and whose voice is like the lute, which soundeth sweet unto the car. Together have they journeyed forth to view the coun- try where hideth the treasure much sought after by men. And behold upon the hill-sides the tracks of many men and of many steeds, and some do come on foot and transport their world ly goods upon an ass. It warmeth the heart of the scribes to chronicle the discovery of two or three new claims rich in precious metals, the ore where of is fair to behold.
 The light waneth and hour of slum. Der draweth nigh. Farewell,

Pure Silver.

The Salt River News Manufactory,
 comes out in bold style under the above caption and tells of the wonder lful deposit of "pure silver found in
 Maricopa county, not far from Phe- nix" The chapter is of considerable length and describes in feaihery terms the character of the ore and the loca- ton of the camp. We guess this item Of "news" hasn't quite enough salt in it to save it. The manager has exploded a little too soon, as usual, and made an unpleasant muss of it. We have talked with miners in Pres .cott and here, and all are ignorant of any such camp or discovery. Mir. Hope, an intelligent miner and an old and reliable friend was in Florence this week from the Tonto country, and he pronounces the reported discovery "a fraud. He knows the country well and says there is no "camp of fifteen men, at the head of Cherry creek, and between twenty to forty miles south east of old Camp Reno" The men who made the statement show an ig- norance of the geography of the coun- try. We saw some of the ore at Pres colt and the character is exactly the same as that from the Stonewall Jack son mine, and we are much mistaken If investigation does not prove that the 2S0 pounds of ore delivered at the Agua Fria shelter came from McMil- len's camp.

Another Trader at San Carlos.

A private Washington letter of May 6, says that St. Louis man had just been appointed Indian trader at San Carlos; also that he had sent forward a stock of goods via Fl Mora and New Mexico. The Secretary of the Int 'rior made the appointment. This ap- .pointment will close out all hope of the reinstatement of NIT. Geo. H. Ste vens and put an early end to the trader ship of honest Reub. Wood" San Carlos affairs of late are quite uncer- tain and somewhat mysterious, but so long as the Indians remain at peace the public at large will have little care who is trader or agent.

Troops in Texas Again Ordered to Follow Raiders Across the
 Borders

WASHINGTON, May 15.-The War Department is informed that General Ord has in general order reissued the existing orders about following raiders across the border. District commaders are instructed that they adhere to them strictly while there is an acknowledged government in the exercise of power in the territory into which the raiders take refuge, but if such territory is alternately held by rival factions at war with each other, and there is no responsible government in control, the pursuing parties can take the shortest routes to the places of refuge of the raiding or invading bands and treat the populations that defend them as if they were raiders. Similar instructions were issued by General Ord during the revolution of 1876 as necessary to protect Americans from plundering bands which infested tine whole opposite bank of the river.

There were many costly and elegant floral tributes. Distin- guished men acted as pail bearers, and members of Congress, the Supreme Court, the President and Vice-Presi- dent, fine military and diplomatic corps, and prominent educators were present from all sections, to lend honor to the obsequies of the distinguished scholar.

WHEN we reached Wickenburr on our return from Prescott We found the citizens there somewhat annoyed at the presence of some Apache Indians which they said were from San Carlos and were eamped within a few miles of own. We learned nothing further until yesterday when we received a dispatch saying that Capt. Porter and scouts had justleft Wickenburg with twenty-fvelor thirty Indian prisoners. This is/all we know. We have not learpad of any encounters or depreda- 'tions. We also learn that Jack Swill- ing, Geo.

Removal of the Pima, MaricOpa and
 PapagO Indians

The concentration of Indians IS one of the best, if not the very best feature of our present very poor Indian policy It is useless to advocate a system to make whites and Indians tenants in common. This can never be. The re. cord of the past and our daily expe. 'rience argues against the wisdom or even the possibility of such a plan. The whites are the superior and wher- ever they come in contact with Indians on unreserved soil they will gradually acquire whatever of the red mans pos sessions they may covet.
 Arizona today enjoys and appre- ciates the great benefits that result from the concentration of Indians as demonstrated in the case of our wild Apaches. Four years ago the Indians now living at San Carlos occupied five reservations and were scattered over the country from the Rio Verde to the Rio Grande, a distance of six hundred miles. One year ago and these h. dians had all been gathered on the San Carlos Reservation within limit of sixty miles. Five agencies had been consolidated into one and thus great expense saved the government The large reservations vacated by these various removals were thus thrown open for occupation by ranchers and miners. Now the Indians have little excuse or opportunity to wander away from the one reserve. Renegades are much easier followed and punished and the benefits are great and general.
 The proposition to remove all the Indians to the Indian Territory is the same principle only on Q grander scale, and we heartily endorse the measure. It is now proposed to re- move the Pima, Maricopa and Papago Indians to that Territory, and it is our intention to encourage, aid and abet, and if necessary become a party to such removal. These Indians have usually been industrious and quiet. but during the last two years the wa ter has failed them and they have been compelled to leave their reservation and cultivate lands elsewhere for their  support. This has been the cause of considerable trouble with and con- plaint from the whites, and this state of affairs will not be easily mended nor will the condition of the Indians be much improved so long as they re- main on the desert lands of Arizona Should they be placed onrthe fertile plains of the Indian Territory they may soon rival the most opulent tribes there.
 From the communication we pub fish on our first page it will be seen that the Indian Commissioner, Inspec- tor and Agent are each in earnest on this subject of removal, and we notice by the Congressional Record that on the 10th instant, the Speaker by unani- nous consent, laid before the House a ! letter from the Secretary of the Int ! rior, transmitting estimate of appro- l priations for the removal of Pima, | Maricopa and Papago Indians to the Indian Territory which was referred | to the Committee on Indian Affairs.
 We trust Congress will make the ap- propriation and that the removal may | be successful in all its details, and by and by, perhaps a year or two. we will also deliver up onr beloved Apaches io similar removal without mur- mur
