Salt River herald., 1879-02-01

Salt River Valley are disfranchised by an executive order, and brought under the federal laws governing In dian reservations.
 It is fine of $50OO, with imprison- ment, for selling spurious liquors within the boundaries, and the mer- chants cannot continue trade without q license from an Indian agent.
 I am at a loss to conceive what malignant influence could have been exercised upon the President to induce the issuance of an executive order leaving such manifest injustice and crushing calamity.
 The Territory is smothercd with Observations"
 Two reservations, each eighty miles in width, from cast to west through the Territory for Railroad companies who have never laid a rail.
 The Indian reservations are absurd " large. Then the military reserva- ton and the private land claims leave nothing for the settler besides barren wastes of sand.
 believe you will not find in the whole history of the wretchedly man aged Indian bureau a previous in stance in which a reservation" has been extended to embrace a large population of white men, women and childrcn-corraling a communi- . ty.
 : You know perfectly well it will be impossible for the Indian and white to live in peace upon alternate sec tions of land.
 ! Fortunately for the whites they have some water rights" which the Indians are bound to respect; and l fancy they will also maintain their rights Co inc lands which they have reclaimed from q desert at immense cost in money and labor. In the strife for land and water a conflict is certain to cnsue sooner or later, and the consequencos-howcver lameniablc for the Iudians-it i- hardly necessary to predict
 The worst enemy of both the whites and the Indians could scarcely have conceived a plan more prolific of mischief
 The only remedy can suggest is that the people of Salt River get up a pumpkin show" and invite the President out to inspect the situation. He has never declined an invitation of that kind yet.
 Your obedient servant,

The following letter from the Reg ister of the Land Office at Florence to Governor Fremont in relation to making our valley an Indian reserva- ton will be found interesting:
 US LAND OFFICE,
 FLORENCE, ARIZONA. Jan. 2S. ' To his Ex.ellency, General J. C. Ere
 mont, Governor of Arizona-Prcs-
 colt:
 I transmit for your information a copy of executive order received at this office yesterday, defining the boundaries of reservation for tie Pima and Maricopa Indians on Salt river.
 Being 10th to impose additional la- bor upon your already overtaxed time at the present moment, but the grayi- ty of the calamity to this people of the Salt River valley, and the immi- nent danger it involves of conflict between the settlers and the Indians will induce you to sympaihise with my apprehensions.
 By comparing the boundaries of the reservation with the pla,S find it embracing tweniy-two townships of surveyed land, besides an almost equal quantity of unsurveyed land.
 The townships average about 23,OO0 acres each, and upon an examination of filings I find them as follows: Exemptions .153 quarter sections. Timber culture. 22 Homesteads. 9 Desert Land Act 126 Railroad Lands. 154 Or a total of 49O quarter sections, or 1s, s,400 acres, besides gr,a, many claims in occupation but not register cd at this office.
 In all cases the settlers have con tributed something to the Treasury and in the desert land entries twenty five cents per acre have been paid on a contract which the government now repudiates.
 By instructions I am forbidden tC receive additional filing within the ! reservation or to perfect those al ready made
 ! The reservation embraces the heart of the agricultural land of the Terri tory settled by an industrious and thrifty community of good citizens augmenting rapidly the wealth and population of the Territory.
 The thrlfly town of Phenix is now in the center of an Indian Reserva tion, md the whole population O
