General John Mansfield.

From the Los Angeles Times.
 Our observations justify us in say ing that the suggestion made by us some weeks since of a candidate for governor has been we'll received by the people, and that the nomination of our esteemed fellow citizen, Gen. John Mansfield, present Lieutenant Governor, would be enthusiastically supported. He has decision of char acter, experIence, legal attainments, and at the same tune is conservative and of and for the people. We con- fidentlv believe his nomination would be well sustained, and his election rebound to the credit and honor of the state. A solid demand must be made upon the convention for his nomination.

Secretary TeIler's sensible Talk.

NEW YORK, April 23.-The Trib- une Washington special says: Teller said to a correspondent yesterday that he should proceed cautiously in the management of Indian affairs, and not attempt any abrupt changes of policy. He does not -fasor the immediate disruption. of tribal relas tiols, eyeuif itswere possible tos ses cure it. He believes i'n their ssttlee tnsnt upon farm 1spds in, severalty wh6n z the IhdisHs nre, sufficiently sdvancef to render the Success of isnuh plan probable, but he says there is one thing which he hopes to see accomplished during his administra- ton, and he believes promises good results. He wishes to have the res ervation system supplanted by sys- tenn of patenting lands to the Indians by tribes, so that while pussesai1g lands in common. they fhaS lil lS t!sS same title to theln as 8ould 56 ses oured so 6oibsa sssssIy yscf white ssnen s4ko slSdlll. p6rchAse and paysfos lAsids fn common. Under the pres 1usl sy5teR the Indian tribes are moved about for one reason or an- other, and ths, tho secretary thinks, is not only cruelty to the Indians, but productive of mischief to the neigh boring tribes that are far enough advanced to succeed. He is of opinion that they should be taught the rudiments of agriculture and be made self-supporting as soon as possible. The nomads should be supplied with-eettte- that they may becope-ferders. Referring to the outbreak of Apaches, the secretary said they, as well as all other wild tribes, should be disarmed. If there is no law by which this can be done, one should be passed. Of what use are firearms to them, he asked. There is no game for them to hunt; we feed them and we must continue to do so until they can support them selves. Why should we allow them to ride about with their repeating and breech.loading carbines? They only furnish means and temptation to murder. We disarmnd and dis mounted two thousand Sioux, some time ago, and they have been ten fold more progressive since that time than in the same length of time be- fore.

GENTLEMEN who visited Groom Creek district, six miles south of Prescott, yesterday, returned last evening well pleased. MT. Merring- ton is happy. His new mill has, so far, done good work. An assay of tailings afforded but $2 per ton, so that both free gold and sulphurets have been saved. Assays of conccn- trations showed that they are worth between $900 and sl,000 per ton. They vii, in all probability, be ship ped to San Francisco or the East. Another stamp will shortly be added to the mil; it will do custom work and be of great benefit to this part of Arizona.-Prescott Courier.

To Frisco and Back.


 "l came in to give you the item of my arrival in town," said hairy man, yesterday, as he wandered into the Boomerang office, wearing an old fashioned Seymour coat, split down the back, and pair of low-necked pants, draped about him, and dainti- ly secured in front with tenpenny nail.
 "I passed through your town last May, and you noticed in your paper that 1 was a west bound passenger on the overland train. 1 have called to tell you that l am on my way back"
 "Had pleasant trIp?"
 "Well, only partially so. l en- joyed the journey out to San Fran cisco very much. ent out in sec tiop No. II of Pullman to take a position as cashier of Frisco bank, but when I got there l found an old man holding the job who had given good satisfaction for nine years. hadn't the heart to take the place away from him, and the president seemed to think the same about it."
 "So you didn't get the job?"
 "No, not very much. couldn't get confirmed by the senate. The president told me that perhaps l could get a position as sergeant at arms of hen ranch up the gulch, but embedded four dozzen of eggs to take me into the circus, and while I was looking at the black and tan boa constructor, q sheriff or some- lthing of that kinds came along and l9as)i iea ywps S nov s5etdfh hinS | lto tiay i1kttves isegtfi se1 q eslS5 :zs5 | licornikanos, of 8s osS l b6alf B (16 llyuigar herd swould call 1t T i'lse s: s.:'

 "Not exactly. 1 got a chance to walk part of the way, and from here to Omaha I shall take the position of steer inspector extraordinary on a stock train. It is quite a change to go west in Pullman ard then work your passage home by punching cat | tie at the station. However, l wanted you to say simply that i passed through on my way east to-day, and l'll send the paper home. Make it as full of glittering pomp and ori- ental scoIlops as possible, and 1 will pay you for it. You see I'll get pretty near home and I'll take bath and fix up a little, and come into town in pretty good shape; and now all l want IS the aid and encourage, ment of the press. Do you seem to grasp my meanIng?"

 "All right. Just say that Mir. Vel lington kersikes passed east yester, day in his special car to Boise City, having been on a visit to the Pacific coast with a view of purchasing the State of California as country seat. That is decomposed lie, of course; but you just say how much the strain on your conscience will be, and l'll go down in my overal!s and make it all right"

TERRITORIAL JUDICIARY.

For the entire judiclal business of this great and rapidly growing terri tory the general government has pro. vided three Judges who have 10 act in dual capacity-frst as District Judges, then as Supreme or appellate Judges. Four or five years ago this arrangement was all sufficient, but now, since the rapid settlement and development of the country it is quite inadequate to the wants of the community. For the time being the Judges of the two northern districts can get through their work without inconvenience, but the Judge for the First, or Southern district, is one of the hardest worked men in the whole territory, and, except relief is pro vided for him, he will break down under thes burden of his duties within year or two. The litigation of either Pima or Cochise county is as much as any one Judge should be asked to attend to. It is safe to say that the suits in either one of the counties named are more numerous than the suits all told in either ot the other two districts. In addition to Pima and Cochise counties the Judge of this district is burdened with the litigation of Pinal and Graham coun- ties, which. though not great, adds to the labors of the office. Not only as a measure of relief to the Judge, but as matter of justice to litigants, another Judge should be appointed by congress and fourth district carved out of what now constitutes the First district, making Corhise and Graham one. a-I Pima and Pinal another. By this arrangement the Supreme Court would be constituted of four members, and thus, when a case came before it upon appeal, from either district, the Judge before whom the case was tried, could and should retire from the bench, thus leaving three men to decide upon the case with no preconceived opinions to bias their judgment. Again, Tn cases like that of the Tombstone NJ. < M. Co. vs. the Way Up M. Co.,, which was tried at the beginning of the last fall term of the court, and which has not yet been decided, could be considered by the court in all its bearings Tn reasonable length of time and decision rendered to the relief of both parties to the litiga- ton. For these and other reasons that could be assigned congress should take Immediate aetion ,in thu swssst md yy i}61a fd3{ksi|

A Great Benefit.

Immigrants appreciate what the citizens
of jamestown have done for them in pre-
pairing the immigrant buildings and Civ
ing them such good accommodations
Many are the praises that are bestowed
upon our peaple on this account and they
are due not to few but to many through
out the town, and to farmers as we'll as
business men, who put their hands in
their pockets and subscribed literally so
that new settlers should have good shelter
Fifteen hundred dollars have been eX-
pended to good advantage in this manner
on these buildings which occupy de-
lightful site in a pleasant grove on the
river bank and extend from cast to west
two hundred feet. The location is indeed
a good one, and Agent Daily of the
Northern Pacific deserves a large meas
urc OF enconium for making such an ex-
cellent selection. The rooms for fan-
lies are l6XlS feet each, and as most of
the settlers bring their bedding and cook
ing utensils they manage to live cOmtorta-
bly, for few days until locations are Sc
cured. Our hctels are overcrowded, our
houses are SO filled that it is hard to find
stopping places even at high rents. New
buildings are going up in every direction
but not sufficient to meet all the demands.
The immigration buildings are therefore
of great value and furnish settlers just
what they need-temporary shelter until
they can make arrangements for houses
either in town or on their claims.
