Something Ahont Imagination.

Few people realize what power tie imagination possesses. it is, indeed, possible to imagine almost anything Thus thousands doctor for ailments that, if not wholly. are partially imaginary. Volumes could be written to prove our assertion; ten thousand examples could be gwen of the imagindtiOn's vhims and fancies. Bat perhaps one will do at this time, as 1t will as well illustrate the power of imagination as would q hundred And 1t is a true story.

TIE Sanl Francisco Report never misses an opportunity to make fling at Arizona. We suppose it hopes " this method to bolster up the efel!ing fortunes of the Comstock aad other played-out bonanzas. The Report Is not particular whether it is oar mining, mercantile or what interest. SD lou- as it is ia Arizona, that it trains its batteries or abuse upon. Its latest tiradc WAS under the caption of Relief for tLe Speculators." it 7ays:
 Senator Farley has introduced 8 biii for commission t0 examine the claims Of :he sufferers by the late Indian war in Arizona, for lLe purpose oi gay yLlent of the same 5v 30 Cungress.cAai difro- priation. Tbe Dbiis heT"ii i"oA the ground at tine time the Wal "as raging that 1t vas caused by interested na.'tles, as most Indian wars are. or cOlr3e Il but just and rign; that people who have lost property by indian depredatons should be compensated by the govern meut. but 1t IS as plain as can De that speculatoDs, contractors and merchants in Arizona did all they could to create a big scare and the impression that serl- ous war was in progress. Ih's was done with the double object of bringing troops into the Territory that the schemers obtain high prices for necessary commo- dities, and the pIling mp of cialms against the gCyernmen: for losses either sustained OF claimed to have been sus- tained. It is astonishing how the value of property increases after It has been stolen or destroyed by Indians and the government comes to pay for It. A mustang that could epurchased readily for ten dollars suddenly becomes worth one hundred dollars, and stack of hay for which the owner would be glad to get ten dollars per ton bOoms up ID value to forty dollars a ton the minute an Indian appears on an adjacent hill top or a troop of cavalry out Of forage camps in the vicinity.
 The above is a fair sample of the u1- reasonable and uncalled for abuse which the Report visits upon the people of this Territory. Such an utterance as the above could only have been born of ignorance and spleen. The sufferers by the late Indian trouble in this Territory were not contractors and speculatOrs, but rauchmen, some of whom lost their lives along with their stock. Not more than two trains were taken in and in the case of the supplies for the San Carlos reservation, they were recovered and taken to their destination. Of the stock run of some of it was the finest in the Territory. The stock kept by II. C. Hooker, on the Sierra Bonita ranch, Is equal to any in the West. The propcsi- tior to have the government pay for the depredations of its wards kept here against the wishes of our people, is a just one, and one which should meet with favorable consideration.

tinue to hold an office the possession of which qualities him for designation as acting President Of the United States. Thus the Speaker of the House. or thc President or the Senate, who, as acting President of the United States, would wield lat.i tue la :slaiiyo aud executive power of the government, as he would take part in legislation and append or withhold the executive signature Co that same Legislation. FurtEe- both the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the Rouse become ineligible to the Presidency by reason of aii"rage and homage.
 This was illustrated p the c.s>e oi Henry Clay. in leil, who gas elected ! Speake- of the House before he was of Presidential age. And under the exist 1 ing law. 1T both the President and Vice President had died sixty days before the ! first Wednesday ui ;Ee present month, | it would have been necessary to elect a new President. who would be sworn in on the lih day of March next, in the middle os the long term of Congress; and if he was to serve for four years his l term would expire in the middle of the long Congressional term. The introduc- tion Of 8 new Cabinet and new machin- cry in the middle Of a Congress would disorganize an the Governmental De partmeuts, and ought to be guarded against.
 Beck regarded the substance of the bill reported by the Judicary Committed of the Senate in 1856. making the suc- cession fall on one Of the Judges Of the Supreme Coari, officers who had the qualifications required for Presidency and Vice Presidency, as bridging over the difficulty. He denie! the position taken by the Committee, and by able lawyers, that when, i'll the temporary disability of the President, the Fice President succeeds, the President can- not afterwards resume ms place.
 If Lincoln had been captured by the Confedera,es it would have been neces- sary for Hamlin to sign, as President legislation passed to raise men and money to carry on thc war. But the declaration by Hamlin that he intended to act the remainder of the term would have caused a revolution in tine North. Beck was opposed t. Ga,land's bill, resting the succession on the Cabinet officers, because in the event of the re- moval Of the President the Cabinet might not only be implicated with the President, but might have advised the offense for which he is removed. Then, too, the Cabinet members may not pos sess the requisite qualifications for the Presidency in regard to age and nativity. He then quoted from an interesting let ter by the official Senate reporter, D. F. Murphy, in response to one from him self, giving the record ot the insertion of a clause Of constitution and legisla, ton on tla subject.

THEimpression prevails in Tombstene that Mayor Cum. of that city, was the party sought to be killed in the recent attack upon the stage coach between that city and Benson. The Epitaph has taken the CITIZEN to task because it has deprecated the condition of affairs now existing in that city and vicinity. Nov that its own editCr-in-chief has been se- lected as a victim for murder it begins to think that outside influence Is neces- sary. The Epitaph now calls for aid to suppress the trouble. If there Is any possible stretch of authority by which an armed force can be placed in Tomb stone to operate against this lawless class. whom the Court authorities seem either powerless or unwilling to control. We sincerely hope 1t will be done. The present chaotic state of affairs, right on the eve of charter election. portends no good.

THE TIMBER QUESTION.

One of tIg first matters which should
 receive tue attention or our representa-
 tive in Congress is the timber question
 in this Territory. The laws as they now
 exist virtually compel their violation, or
 the abandonment of the country,
 Nearly all timber used in the Territory, either for domestic or manufacturing
 purposes, is obtained contrary to law.
 This is unavoiIably the case. and Con-
 gress should adapt the laws ta the nat
 ural condition of affairs as they exist here There is no law under which a person can acquire title to a large DOT ton of the land from which wood suita-
 ble for domestic uses can be obtained without tall swearing.
 This is also true O; the timber 1n our mountain silps which is suitable for lumber. The law has made no provis- ion for its sale and except under certain requirements difficult to comply with. No timber for mining or other purposes can be obtained except iu contravention Of law. IT the government officials should insist upon the rigid enforce ment of the letter oi the lazs 'f -'----ii l--4..JI...
 The provisions of the law are many of them absurd. They permit miners to go on and eat timber and wood for their own use, but do Eat allow it to be cut and sold. This looks like a senseIess distinction, and one in which the inter- ests Of all demand a change.
 Every mining company cannot put up sawmin to cut the timber used in the development of their mines. That is entirely ont Of the question. In some locations they can obtain lumber by raI from outside of the Territory, but many of our mines are too remote from our railroads to admit of that.
 IT this timber which is now being cut in violation Of law WAS made into lumber for sale beyond taa Territory. there might be good grounds for the enforce ment of the law, but such Is not the case. The mills are small and located up in the mountains il the vicinity of the mines which they seal, to supply and their business Is purely local Many of these mill men are ignorant that their | is in violation Of la-.
 Congress should at once come to the | relief of these men, ami provide for tue l sale of the timber and lands which are of | no value for agricultural purposes, but | grow the wood which is the only natural | uel yet available for domestic and | ,ther uses in tine Territory.

THE PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION.

In the Senate of the United States, on Thursday, Senator James E. Beck. of Kentucky, brought up the subject of the Presidential succession, and in the course of his remarks spoke of the seri- ous difficulties and confusion likely to arise from the enforcement Of the act of March l, l?92, giving the line of success sion to the President of the Senate, or if there is none, to the Speaker of the House in the contingency therein pro- vided for, and referred to many instances in which, If any such contingency had arisen, these difficulties would nave been Illustrated. He said that while the word "officer," in the clause of the Constitu- tion empowering the Legislature to de- clare what officer shall act as provisional SseaN1ssor, has been held to mean an
 The T of the United States, the only ex- Se-g provision Of the law on the sub
 is the act of l792, which designated officials not recognized as officers of the United States. The Senate decided in 179S, ip the Blount impeachment. that a Senator was an officer within the mean ing of the Constitution, and this deci- sion had been followed. There were many practical difficulties in any exccu- tion of the law.
 The Speaker of the House, ordinarily, has no official existence for nine months Tn every alternate year. as the President of the Senate may have no official exist ence at the same time as had repeatedly occurred, and was the fact when the as sassination of President Garfield took place. The office of President pro tenn. of the Senate does not exist except in the abselc3 of the Vice President, upon whose reappearance the President be- comes funcius o+iicio. The power given Congress to provide for the succession gives power to desl gnate an officer al- ready existing, and the latter must con
