San Carlos Indians.

The Indian question is again unfor tunately assuming disquieting as pect, in Arizona, and therefore news touching the subject is important The editor of the Silver Belt is, in our opinion, an intelligent and fair critic on it, and hence the following is copied from that paper of August %:
 We learn from a gentleman who re presented this county in the Legis. lature two years since, that Indians near RverS.ae are helping themselves to watermeions and roasting ears be longing to farmers on the Gila and that stock horse was shot in the head two miles above Scotts ranch, the opinion ot our informant IS that the shot was fired by an Indian. The num- Der roaming in that vicinity is from six to fifty. The latter number were there, in a bunch, about a month ago and were ordered by citizens from the .neighborhood. The same informant who came to town Tuesday, reports having seen three bands from the road, one band in camp and the others trav- cling from the direction of Globe to the Pinal mountains. He presumes they were Agency Indians. Those in the vicinity of Riverside he says were San Carlos Indians.
 We are informed by W. N. Tweed that numerous bands of San Carlos Indians are constantly rowing in the vicinity of Summit Precinct, had fired the country and depredated upon property belonging to our citizens, they are there now and short time previous to the first of this month they literally swarmed. Mir. T. furth- CT said he saw several of their passes, that they were not signed by Hart, but were San Carlos passes.
 MT. LaUbach, of Wheatfields, says he has been greatly annoyed and dam- aged by San Carlos Indians who are almost constantly in his neighborhood. About twenty days since they burned hundred yards of fence. He would have lost more had not MT. Townsend happened to see the fire and informed MI. IL = LlCh nAV lliltlCQ1aiCil hOAt bO the place and stopped the further spread of the fire.
 w. 4. Holmes informs us that San Carlos Indians broke into and robbed the cabin of George Bird, last week, one mile north Of Globe.
 San Carlos Indians are reported toI us as having been numerous, less than a month since, in the vicinity of Bloody Tanks, and from there on down the creek as far as Oak Trees and also at PiGal ranch and vicinity.
 Allen Tebbs says he saw a laTgeI number of San Carlos Indians Onl Pinal creek between Globe and Mi ann, about the latter part of last month.
 We also have information of al band of San Carlos Indians on Coon creek, tifty-one miles from the Agency and off the reservation. They were thefe three weeks since
 Almost every one in the Globe can testify to the many San Carlos Indians passing through Globe during the last days in last month.

THE Chronicle moGrns through a whole column because of the discrim-
 ination against California and espe- cially San Francisco by ahe Southern
 Pacific Railroad Company. 1t says that Los Angeles gave the company over three quarters of a million "upon a promise that the company would assist Los Angeles to a virtual mono poly of the Arizona trade" Now we were under the impression that Les Angeles paid it's money to induce the Southern Pacific to go long distance out of its direct route, and give that city the advantage of being on the main line; but if the Chronicle is right, and Los Angeles did try to buy into so corrupt a relation to the Southern Pacific, then we say it served her right that she is sadly disappointed; for we understand very we'll what it means when the trade of an Arizona is the monopoly" of a small town like Los Angeles. We are very glad to know that Arizona was never for sale after the manner of the Los Angeles con tract; and we assure the Chronicle that eastern cities get favorable rates to Casa Grande, over the Southern Paci- fic, not at all because the railroad peo pie have any grudge at San Francisco or any other coast city, but because the eastern cities are industriously laboring to reduce distance and rates to Arizona, by means of direct lines. The Company meets necessity, and yields to it, when it arrays its terms from Chicago, &c., but in dealing with California it stands on an equal foot ing, and whereas, in the one case 1t has a right to protect itself against rivalry, on the other hand it may pro- tect itself agalnst bankruptcy byI charging living rates.

0eath a q Shaf.

From Major Thomas Morgan we
 learn the sad particulars concerning
 the death of NIT. Samuel Brown,
 which occurred in Tombstone District
 last week. Mr. Brown was a clever and energetic young man, liked and
 respected by all who knew him. He had a contract 70 sink a shaft on a certain mine anG last Friday afternoon shot off several blasts at the bottom of this shaft. Being anxious to drive his work as rapidly as possible he went down the shaft too soon after the blasts and, completely overcome by the smoke, he fell exhausted ct the bottom. A man was lowered to assist Brown, but there was too much smoke for him also and he had to be hauled up again, barely reaching the surface before before being overcome by sufio- cation. Finally Superintendent Meade arrived, went down the shalt and brought up the body-but it was toe late; life was extinct. A physician was called and every possible effort made to resuscitate the body, but to no avail. The corpse was properly cared for and decentiy buried by the many friends of the deceased. His relatives are supposed to live in Pennsylvania, and if papers in that State would mo- tice his death it would assist in find ing who his relatives are.

Charles Powell. Murderer.

The incidents connected with the killing of Jesus Chavez by Charles
 Powell on Saturday night, are present
 ed in another column. It appears to
 have been a deliberate killing, prompt
 ed by desire for revenge upon A. B.
 Simpson. Powell, when caught on
 the bank of the arroyo, nearly a mile
 from the place of the shooting appear
 ed to be stupidIy drunk; but he was
 certainly not drunk wh ..- followed
 Simpson about the stree :, shooting at
 him on sight. Stirred by the late
 news from Phoenix, this event has almost impelled a resort to lynch law in Tucson, we are glad to say that we now believe the sober second thought of our people to have gained the as- cendant, and that the law will be left to take its course, in Powelrs case. But to the friends of the men now confined in the county jail on charges of murder, we say, see to it that no more killings occur. This community will not tolerate men who display the recklessnesS with fire arms displayed
 by Powell on Saturday night A dozen
 good men have told US how near they
 were when the shots were fired from
 Browns corner; and it was through no fault of Powelrs that some of them were not hit as was Chavez. Another such affair will bring out the mob (this is not threat, but advIce) and, once started, every homicide in the jail would be in extreme danger. There are other men here of the Powell stamp, and more may be ex- pected; and to avoid the effects of their brutal disregard of human life, and to protect ourselves against the disgrace of mob law, it may be neces- sary to secure their absence from Ourl midst. Our peace officers know them and their haunts; both should be kept under close watch. Harmless, law citizens refuse to be made the chance targets of such men. The law deals with them only after their mis- chief is done, but it may be necessary to prevent their doing any mischief at all.

CumberLqnd AIne.

At the office of the Cumberland Mining Company, No. AT California street, San Francisco, box of ore has been received direct from the mine in Arizona. It consists of fifty-three specimens, taken from the face of a nine-fOot cross-cut from shaft one. The assays on this rock, which is the dark quartz, will run very high, into the hundreds, perhaps thousands to the ton. If this body of ore should run all the distance from shaft one 10 shaft three zoo feet, the value of this plum alone will be many millions of dollars Stock Report.

County Revenne.

some days since, in giving the tax levy for this year, We promised some figures showing the purposes for which the county money was expended dur. ing the year ending with July l. Without attempting to give all the items of county revenue and expendi. ture, through licenses, etc., we simply take the regular tax levies and the audlts Of the Bord of Supervisors, presuinlng that a fair estimate of an2irS can be gathered therefrom.
 3he assessment roll last year figured up Sl nS,075.2O, upon which levy of s2.oo per s1OO yielded S27,s51.ss, all or which, excepting a very few dol lars, has been collected by our excel lent Sheriff. But the Territorial gen eral, school and sinking funds con- stunned % cents of the levy and the county school fund 8 cents, leaving Sl.65 for the county general fund against which all of the Supervisors warrants were drawn; that is. SIS 449.31. The present assessment roll amounts to s41, ,347O4, as officially cer- tified; also upon a $2.50 levy, distrib- uted as follows:
 Territorial general r,,nd o- territorial school fund...-.................. .l5 Territorial sinking fund..................... 20 County school 50 County general 40
 It will be seen by thIs that the gen eral fund levy is 15 cents less than last year, and the Board have but $33,- l54.S4 to draw against during this year, in the face of the fact that they actually drew warrants last year to the amount of S31,192.66. Of course the overdrafts of last year increased the county debt very materially, SO that it was reported by the Treasurer. July 1, to be $45,73 The increase of our population and the opening up of many new portions of the county have thrown new and increased burdens on the tax-paying people. We subioin al tabular statement of the total of war rants drawn for the year com July l, 1878, and ending July l, 1879, according to objects, and Tor sake or q companion, like state ment for the half year beginning Jan lary l, 1878, and ending July 1, 1878:

Our Two-Foi5 LIfa.
BY VIM. GILL MILLS.

We live two lives in human sigh, Alike both high and lowly one: One life is seen In chanyeful light Exposed and judged, or wrong ar rich, By all 10 whorl we may be known. And one whose hidden history None can reveal or know, but he Who lives that secret life alone. None can the deep-felt extacies. That move the latent-life, unfold: The varying views of life it sees, Its deep unutiered miseries,
 Its struggles, fears, and hopes untold The visions that before it roll, Lining to heaven th' aspiring soul Its gleams Of glory to behold. Ger secret sin and private wrong He may in deep contritlon groan: And blush to hear each friendly tongue Utter his praise in speech or song, For deeds they deemed were nobly
 done, Deeds which deserved, if understood, Severest censure from the good;- And ye. 10 hinl are only known,
 Iv. He may rejoice o'er virtuous worth That unseen life has we'll achieved: He may rejoice, though none on earth The generous deed, or struggling birth To life, has outwardly perceived; For deedg that gain the worlds applause Too of, cen in tue poblest cause By gold embellIshed are believed. And thus l; Is, with powers complete For bRsest slns or holiest deeds, We move along with stumbling feet. And gain name from those we meet, Just as their wayward fancy leads; 4 blended character Of praise, Or foulest censure and disgrace, That from their ignorance proceeds.
 VT. And 80 Is given generous praise. Or condemnation by the thr ng; Both may display doubtful phase, Both. too, may Gs untrue and base, Or, each be neither right nor wrong; Thus, gain we praise when blame is due, And foul reproach when honors true To our imperfect lives belong.
 VII. But we should have Judge more true. Than those wbo hold the balance here i; To weigh The lives they never knew, To well consider, while they view, The motive from the act appear; For God, who looks on man In love, And our own hearts alone, can prove The cause that leads to actions here. TUCsoS, August 1879.

To our New Mexican contemporary who understood us to say that the col lection of taxes in this county was be hind two years, we desire to say that he is totally in error. The collection of taxes was never better attended to than it is here. The county is in debt, but the people are not in arrears.
