How India Rubber is AduIterated.

The higher the price of crude rubber the
greater will be the authorizations to which it is
subjected for manufacture into clothing, hose,
springs and all other forms of general use
This aslulteradon is practiced by grinding up
old rubber, vulcanized rubber, already re-
worked and adulterated rubber OF all sorts,
old shoes, old hose, old rollers, ETC., and mix
ing it with'a small percentage of the pure,
fresh material This admixture it is that
causes the modern rubber shoes to pull to
pieces so easily, clothing to crack, hose to
burst, springs to crumble, and in all other
sorts of rubber the development of such fra
possess

The Stiluell Assassi.ation.


 The assassination of Frank Siilwell ir Tucson Monday night was, there Was little doubt, but another act m the bitter faction feud which has worked untold harm 10 the interests of Tombstone and Cochisc county during the past six months. As well informed persons were satisfied that the killing of Morgan Earp in this city Saturday night was the nat ural and legitimate sequence of preceding acts of violence, so, in regard to this lat ter assassination, every body conversant with the facts IS equally well satisfied that II was but the natural outgrowth of the same causes. And as all right-think ing and order-lOvIng cItIzenS denounced and deprecated the unlawful killing oi Earp, so will the murder of SiilweIl, which Is surrounded by all the cowardly fend- Ishneos of the former, create a feeling of bathing for the perpetrators and horror al the deed m the breast of every man possessed of the common instincts of hu- manity or any regard for the preservation of organized society. The Nugget con demned m words of no uncertain mean ing the dastardaly act of Saturday night. and II now denounceS the red-handed assassination of StIlwell, and places them m the same category as the skulking mur- derers of Earp. It is 10 be earnestly hoped the cowardly perpetrators of two Of the foulest, ghoul-like as.asslnations that ever disgraced any community, may be speedily identified. that justice stern and unrelenting may be swiftly me;ed out 10 them.

The Army Appropriation Bill.

There are one or two provisions in the
 Army bill, as reported by the Appropria-
 tions Committee of the House, which
 will be likely to provoke considerable discussion. One of these provides: That on and after the passage of this act all officers in the Army who are over sixty two years Of age shall be placed on the retired list; and no set now in force shall be so construed as to limit or restrict the retirement of officers as herein provided for" Another provision prohibits the use of any part of the appropriation for the purpose of Investigating war claims heretofore adjudicated by the War De partement under the act of July 4, 1851; and requires that all such claims now pending in the Quartermsster and Con- misssry Departments shall, with all the papers relating thereto, he transferred to the Court of Claims, which Is clothed wi.h authority to ad!udicate them.
 There will be considerable opposition to both these provisions, but 1t IS be- heved that they will faTorably commend themselves 10 the judgment of a large majority of Congress-. The total appro- pristiOn recommended by the Army bill IS S27, ,4O6,69S, which IS Sl ,6SS less than the estimates of the War Depart ment, and S7lS.S9S more than the appro- pristion for the current fs.:al year. The largest items of increase are as follows. Purchase and manufacture of clothing, s3OO, 900; cartridges, cartridge cases, etc, for target practice, slOQOO0; msnufac- ture of arms at National armories, Sl00,- OOO; horse equipments for cavalry, Sj0,- OOO; powder depot 5000; subsistence and transportation, SlOO,OO0.

ReplY to the Open Letter.

EDITOR CITIZEN: The Star of the 24th
 Inst., contains an open letter from Mir
 Bolan, of Stafford, addressed to General
 WillcoI, the subject matter of which in-
 terests me and in replying to this letter
 I shall endeavor to keep within the limit
 of facts.
 Three companies of scouts passed
 down the Gila from Fort Cummings,
 New Mexico, to San Carlos for the pur-
 pose of discharge and reorganization.
 I was in command of one of these (B) and when speak for this company l
 speak for the other two commanded re ] sPectively by Lieut. Aall,,'is Infantry, and Lieut.. Richards, 4th Cavalry. I deny most emphatically that single | head of stock was killed by these scouts on the Gila or any other portion of their | line of march. Scouts prefer fresh beef | always to salted bacon and on long | scouts where game is scarce the bacon is exchanged for beef whenever and | wherever it can be dore. The gentle | man is right when he says "it was go l as you please march and the criticism demonstrates his utter ignorance of | Indian character and the modes oi | handling. I also believe with him that between Ash spring and Solomonville the grass was set on fire but whether it I was done by the scouts or not l do not pretend to say. Scouts are usually well acquainted with the country and often take short cuts over mountain ranges tD shorten the march and to hunt, and often, especially during cold weather, build fires to warm themselves by, but at no time have I ever known them to
 -------'y -a~-s--sy~-. t'.~ '...St- fere with the private property of citilens And now ask Mir. Bolan why he dio not make complaint to the officer com manding these scouts and ask re- dress. The law provides for just such cases; pro rata assessment could l have been made upon the whole command, the money collected ana paid over to the aggrieved parties l demand that he shall come forward with the proof of his assertion that stock was killed, and other wanton acts c.,nl- mitted. The fact that DO complaint was made, the fact that the gentleman rushes into print on short notice, added to the portion of his letter, dem onstrates that he has a grievance, but 1t IS evidently no: the one referred to. He may be a farmer, he may be mer- chant, with any number of peons, he may be grain and forage shark who thrives upon the misery of the laboring classes of his vicinity, but I warn him that he who follows in the footsteps of AnaRias can never be considered a rep utable member of society.

Happy St. Patrick.

The New York Herald says: While Irishmen are glUrifying their patron saint ID all sorts of -ays the good soul is having jolly little private celebration of hIs own over the fact that his time in Ireland was not fixed for this portion of she nineteenth century. In his day the reptiles were the principal curse of the Green Isle, SO he drove them all out; but now the disturbing clements, no mat ter to winch party they belong, are not of the kind that submits to driving. Probably the good saint if he were alive would, like the sensible soul that he was, place himsef between the two parties with the inevitable result of be- ing soundly cursed by both. He IS better of where he is and ought to be im- mensely grateful.

A NEW DEPARTMENT WANTED.

The mining industry of the United
 States has assumed one of the mos
 important Positi9nf among it's EffGilfeas SIi $; r 'e&i amount of capital invested in min ing, and the value of the production com pared with it, show the industry to be among the most profitable of legitimat, speculation. In almost every other in- terest tending to develop the natural re- sources of the country than that of min ing, has the government recognized the importance of extending aidi in manner best calculated to advance the special interest designated. Rhus there are many separate bureaus in the Interior Department, each exercising certain in telligent and well directed influence up- on the special products intrusted to it.

Production of Sugar and Molss.es.

The latest census bulletin gives some interesting facts as to the sugar cane production of the United States 1879. The production of sugar reached 179,0O0 hogsheads, and of Molasses near I7,OOO,- 0OO gallons. This is a remarkable in crease over the amount reported in 1870, when S7,O00 hogsheads of sugar and 6,OOO,0O0 gallons of molasses were produced. But the present yield does not compare so favorably with that re- turned by the census of ls60, which was 3l 900 hogsheads of sugar and 15,OOG,- OOO gallons nf mola~ses. The bulk both of sugar and mOlasses is the production of Louisiana. In the present census re- turns this State IS credited with nearly ll,OOO.OO0 gallons of molasses and more than ls1,500 hogsheads of sugar. It's production of the former article has nearly trebled since 1870, and of the latter more than doubled.-New York Herald.

xYIaHRoRLY COURTESY.

4 Tombstone paper, whose chief mis-
 sion seems 10 be the personal aggrandize.
 ment of its ambitious editor, rarely misses
 an occasion to give an ill-natured fling
 at Tucson. It is very true that his
 feebe blows are harmless, because of
 his lack of influence; and the deep re-
 spect he pays to truth by keeping safe
 distance from it is a characteristic dis
 cretion.
 In advocating the erection of reduc- ton works for smelting ores at Tomb stone. the journal in question takes oc- casion to say:
 Were Tucson so situated as to com mand the amount of ore necessary to run reduction works of this sort, her people would come to the front and have them running within four months.
 To those at all acquainted with the mineral country adjacent to Tucson it is scarcely necessary to state that the above gratuitous reflection is erroneous, to speak mildly. The amount of avail able ores near Tucson would maintain immense reduction works for many years to come, and the possibilities Of the undeveloped prospects that now promIse we'll may be considered an ad- ditionsl indueement for their erection here.
 But it is not our purpose in this article to bring an array of facts to retute the above extract. We merely reproduce it to show the neighborly feeling existing in the city of Tombstone towards our city. It has always been our aim to ad vance the interests vf the whole Terri tory of Arizona by giving the best reports from every portion of it. We hsve carefully refraiEed from stating that of the thousands of so called mines in Tombstone but half dozen are paying. We haze not chosen to blaze forth to the world the fact that "To Let" stares one IR the face on scores of empty houses ip Tombstone. We have not thought ii polite to mention the humiliating truth that several custom mills about Tomb stone are lying idle for want of ore that will work to profit. We have not men toned these unimportant facts because they might create some little feeling of distrust among capitalists who seek in vestments in Arizona, and we have DO desire to iniure any portion of the Terri tory. We of Tucson can afford to be char. table and msgnanimous with our less fortunate neighbors. Our city IS brim- ming over with life and prosperity; it. houses are filled with people and more sdifices are being constructed; it's mer. chants are thriving and happy, and the evidences of permanent prosperity are n nultiplying on all sides. The adjacent hines are being rapidly developed, and re long the Tucson Reduction Works gill be in operation on the banks of tn, aging Santa Cruz, which we hope will | lot incite the envious Epitaph to make my more faces at us
