what is meant by proper food.

in moderate allowances. Wheat they
must have in cold weather, and when
moulting, although oats are a better

seems to be a necessity. Chopped

EDITOR SENTINEL:
The pulse of our embryo mining center
still throbs with healthy action, and work
progresses with favorable results on the
various lodges. Upon the Remnant rep
resented by Lou. Sanders, labor will soon
be resumed by uncovering that portion
CT the ledge which crosses through the
South Wash, and from which metal can
be taken with comparatively little cost.
This ledge joins the Iron Cap on the
north, about so feet intervening between
their respective shafts. From shaft 3
feet in depth, a number of sacks of metal
were shipped, averaging $500 per ton.
The claim embraces $50 feet in length.

We have received an official copy OF the
very interesting Annual report Of Brig.
Gen. Geo. Crook of military operations in
the Department of the Platte. He says:
During the 81 years of my experience
with the Indian question, have never
known band of Indians to make peace
with our Government and then break it,
or leave their reservation without some
ground of complaint"
"On the Esd of Oct, the greater part
OF the Cheyennes were met by Major Carl
tons command in the Sand Hills, and, af-
ter a parley, surrendered. They said that
they had left the Indian Territory on ac-
count of chills and fever and an INSULT
cheney of food and manifested determi-
nation to die rather than be sent back,
although they said they would gladly re-
main at peace with the whites if allowed
to live in healthy locality, and treated
with honesty and justice; and am salts
fed they never would have surrendered
had they not thought that they would be
permitted to remain north. They adj
hered so firmly to their statements, that
it was impossible not to believe that there
must have been some good grounds for
their leaving the Indian Territory,
Among these Cheyenne Indians were
some of the bravest and most efficient of
the auxiliarics who had acted under Gen.
Mckenzie and myself, in the campaign
against the hostile Sioux in 1876 and 1877,
and 1 still preserve grateful remem-
brance of their distinguished services
which the Government seems to have
forgotten"
These words coming from such source
form terrible arraignment OF the Indian
Department. and subsequent events have
intensified it.

Yuma County is to have no
Grand Jury this year. The fact
is, the report from Maricopa has
scared us "anti-ring" county Off
GERS so that we don't dare have
such a meddlesome institution
investigate us. In the criminal
line there is but one case that
could come before a Grand Jury,
and that commitment never
would have been made had testi-
mony, ready and waiting in the
Court, been called and taken.
Well it is bad for the Jurors who
are out the amount of their fees,
but then it is so much saved to
the County.

Globe District.

In answer 10 inquiries concerning the
Silver Nugget mine, in Globe District,
Arizona, We hear quite unfavorable re-
ports. The property has not been report
ed upon, so far as We have been able to
learn, by any competent authority; but
its general reputation in the district is
far from satisfactory. The Globe District
has become rather notorious for unpro-
ductive mines. Most of our readers will
remember the Isabella mining scheme,
in which the Church took so large an in
terest; but which failed to come up to the
expectations of the faithful.
The Gilded Age is another concern that
has been somewhat largely advertis-
ed, but has failed to justify the statements
made of it; and there are some others in
the same category. The mines of Arizona
have been very extensively pulled; but
few of them have done much in the way
Of bullion. There are extremely rich mines
there, no doubt; but there are also, and
probably for that very reason, great
many wildcats, and undeserying claims
brought to the East.
The above is from the Engineering and
Mining journal, and we are surprised that
this usually well informed journal should
be so ignorant of the more recent develop
ments of the Globe District and its output
of bullion. That once upon time there
was swindle connected with the Isabella
mill is no reason for ignoring its present
condition under honest management, III
this connection we call attention to Mr..
PoWlett's account of Globe and Pioneer
Districts, on our first page.
We call upon our colleague of the Sill
yer Belt to refute these foul aspersions.

a New Mining Law,

We publish below a copy OF mining
act which Judge Belford has prepared, and
and which he expects to offer at an early
eay after the meeting of Congress. I'm
der tie act of 1872 no valid location can
be made until after the discovery of the
vein or lode within the limits of the claim
located.
By this act, it is provided that a party
in search of mineral deposit may make
valid location without first striking
mineral that he shall have ninety DAYS
after making his location to expose the
mineral, and that during that time his
possession shall be valid against all in
truders. To avoid the possibility of one
party taking up an entire mountain, he
allows him to take up but one claim. He
makes the claim SIX hundred feet wide,
and does not allow the party to follow the
mineral beyond the exterior lines of thu
claim.
We publish this bill to afford the nip
ers and lawyers an opportunity to criti-
else it, if they find anything Objectionable
in it, or to suggest amendments.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of
America in Congress assembled:
That hereafter any person DESTROYS of
prospecting and exploring the public
domain of the U. s. for the discovery
of deposits of gold and silver bearing ore,
which do not outcrop or appear on the
surface, may locate a mining claim ff-
teen hundred feet in length and six hun
dred feet IN width, which location shall
be made by marking the boundaries of
the same on the surface of the ground by
at least six substantial stakes, one at each
corner of the claim and one at the center
of each side-line.
After the making of said location, the
party making the same shall have ninety
days within which to expose and define
the mineral deposit, which may be done
either BY the sinking of discovery shaft,
or by an open cut, cross-cut or tunnel.
If, within said period of ninety days, he
shall fail to expose said mineral deposit,
his location shall be void, and the claim
so located shall be open to relocation in
the same manner as if no location of the
same had ever been made.
No person discoveringa mineral deposit
under this act shall have the right to fol
low it beyond the point where it is inter-
sected by the exterior lines of the claim;
nor shall any person under this act be
allowed to locate second claim in the
same mining district, until he has per-
fected his title to the first located claim
by an exposure of the mineral deposits
therein, in the manner above set forth,
and by recording the same, as required
by law.
Provided, this act shall not apply to
mining claims on veins or lodes of quartz
found between well defined walls or rock
in place.-DenUer Tribune, Oct. %.
