Two States Contrasted.

EDITOR HERALD:-Many people have
passed their lives moving from Arkan-
sas to Texas and from Texas back to
Arkansas. They did this because they
could not decide which was the better
country of the two. Now since Califor-
mia and Texas are united by railroad
ties, thousands unable to decide which
is the better place, will wander unsettled
back and forth from the prairies of
Texas to the valleys of California. |
have lived in both States, yet l hardly
know which | prefer. In California the
climate is so near perfect that you soon
sigh for bad weather at which to grum-
BILE. In Texas we have some such cold
snaps and some such hot spells that we
fully appreciate the Spring time when it
comes. In California you have every
thing that is good to eat in such abund-
ance that you lose your appetite and
relish nothing. In Texas we have a
feast one year and famine the next.
and we get so hungry after a bad crop
year that we enjoy heartily the good
things of the year of plenty. In Cali
fornia the air is so stimulating that q
man never feels like retiring from busi-
ness. In Texas the air is so enervating
that we feel like retiring from business
all the time. In California land is so
valuable that q dead man in his
grave must feel rich. In Texas land is
so cheap that man feels poor when he
owns many acres. California is the boss
fruit country of the world. In Texas
watermelons grow like weeds, and we
have peaches every other year. Califor-
MIA will produce wine and brandy in
abundance, and l calculate that Texas
will produce enough saints and sinners
to drink oil you will have to spare. Cal
ifornia is good country; Texas is a
good country, and hope they will be
of mutual benefit to each other for ever.
Hoping that the Chinese will not run
you back and take possession of your
orchards and vineyards, even as we run
the Indians away from their forests and
prairies, | remain friend of the whites
of California and yours truly,

THE speech of DIR. Burke, a brother of
the murdered Under-Secretary, at Lay
fayette, Indiana, in which he repels the
allegation that the Phoenix Park assassi-
nations were the work of the Land
League, or any men devoted to the rights
of the Irish people, is strikingly inter
esting feature of the tragedy. The mys-
terry which enwraps this melancholy
catastrophe deepens with the passage of
every day which leaves the assassins
undiscovered 1t is strange circum
stance, indeed, that with Dublin crammed
with troops, constabulary and detectives,
this murder should have taken place
within sight of the Vice-regal lodge, at
one of the leading entrances to a
thronged Park, and that yet the
assassins should have been able to
drive away in the most leisurely
manner, and should still be al
lowed to breathe the free air of heaven.
When regard is further had to the fact
that Lord Cavendish was well-known for
his sympathies for the Irish people, and
had gone over to Ireland with the
avowed purpose of carrying out Mr.
Gladstone's new policy of Cancellation;
when it is remembered, besides, that
Under er-Secretary Burke was Roman
Catholic and the husband of a niece of
Cardinal Wiseman's, it appears almost
incredible that any branch of any Irish
national association could have had any
thing to do with tile outrage. DIR.
Burke does not trouble himself with
beating about the bush, but unhesitat-
ingly avows it as his belief that his
brother and Lord Cavendish were assas-
sinated at the instance of the landlords
of Ireland, who hoped, by this infamy,
which would rightly or wrongly be sad
died upon the Land League, to compel
the policy of conciliation to give place
to one of repression, thus arresting the
lately developed good intentions of Mr..
Gladstone's cabinet. This theory has
been advanced before, but it could come
from no one with such authority as from
abrother of one of the murdered gentle
men. The failuret to unearth the assassins
favers this hypothesis. Powerful in
fiuences must be at work to make the
search for the wretches abortive; for it
is not credible that, with such match
less machinery for discovering them at
the command of the authorities, they
could not be produced in the felon's
dock. Until they have been placed
there, multitudes of dispassionate people
will accept DIR. Burke's theory as the
true one.3

WASHINGTON NEWS.
A SENSIBLE INDIAN POLICY.

WASHINGTON, May 29th.-Secretary
Teller announces his policy regarding
the Indians as adverse to dictation
from church or philanthopic or
CARNATIONS. He favors liberal expen-
ditures for education, the granting of
patents to tribes for their lands and
making the Indian self supporting, but
relieving him of his gun and issuing
lumber instead of tent material.
THE MINORITY BULLDoZED.
The Democratic fight against the con-
sideration of qhe Mackay. .Dibble case,
which has continued eight days, has
practically ended. A new rule has been
adopted prohibiting tillibustering on
contested election cases in the future.
The Democrats have filed written pro-
test, signed by nearly all their members,
against the ruling of the Speaker. Ii a
quorum of Republicans is kept in at
tendance the election cases will be dis
posed of probably this week, 1t is ex-
pected that the House will adjourn over
tomorrow.
lnE DEMOCkAIS STAND FIRM.
The Democratic members of the House
held conference this morning and after
general discussion Of the present situa-
tion, it was proposed that managing
committee of five members be appointed
to conduct the contest on the part of the
minority. The proposition met with a
suggestion that the gentlemen who have
been acting as leaders of the minority
be requested to continue in that capac-
ity. 1t was then unanimously agreed
that Randall, Black burn, Carlisle, Kenna
and Atherton, should manage the con-
test. A further agreement was reached
to the effect that if the Speaker should
make an arbitrary ruling for the purpose
OF forcing the minority to submit to the
will of the majority in the pending con-
test, that another conference should be
held to determine the course to bepur-
sued.

Threatening Indian News--HOs-
tiles Trying to Get Back to the |
Reservation.

Tucson, May 29.-The Star furnishes
the following special: Lordsburgh, May
2S.-A prospector, just in from Soledad
pass, in the Sacramento mountains, reports
that number of hostile Apaches, in
Guiding portion of Juh's and Nana's
bands, are roaming through the noun
tains and evidently awaiting an oppor-
tunity to make their way back to the
reservation. There are also a number
of renegades in the Guadalupes, who
hold communication with the hostiles
and act in concert with them. They
have attacked several ranches in the
valleys and the stolen stock have been
driven into the mountains Two herds
men have been killed. The residents in
the Organs and San Andres ranges have
become alarmed and are organizing for
defense. The Indians are sullen and
threatening and evidently have not been
whipped into good behavior. Reports
say the band is being daily augmented
by renegades from Arizona, New Mex
leo and from across the line, and their
strength is more formidable than it has
been at any other time since the out
break. If they do not get back to the
reservation they will probably make
descents on the exposed settlements.
CHARLESTON, May 29th-It is reported
that about seventy-tive hostile Indians
passed the Custom House Oh the 9th
pursued by the Mexican troops. Fifteen
Indians were seen yesterday morning
making apparently for the HuachucG
mountains in the direction of Santa
Cruz, with the Mexicans following
closely. The balance of the hostiles are
supposed to still be in the vicinity of the
Custom House. Two companies of In
fantry and the Indian scouts left Hua.
chucha last evening, probably to go in
pursuit of one of the bands.
A representative of the Star, making
tour of the exposed districts, reports
that all of the passes are well guarded
by the military. A large force is sta
toned at the south end of the Chirica.
hua mountains and other points near the
border Clifton and. Ash Creek are also
provided with strong forces. 1t is
doubtful if any body of hostiles can get
into San Carlos without being annihi-
lated. Stragglers are returning daily
The Tucson Rangers, forty in number,
are reported to be in the immediate
vicinity of the hostile Apaches.

DepredatiOns in sonora.

TOMBSTONE, May Doth. Tho man
Hiram A. Potter, found guilty in the
District Court few days ago of rape
and incest, was to-day sentenced to the
Yuma penitentiary for life by Judge
Stillwell. Potter practiced law for years
in Kansas and seduced his eleven year
old daughter took her from home Bio
Washington Territory and came to this
county less than year ago, residing at
Dos Cabezas. His little daughter con
fided her terrible secret to a lady at
whose instigation the inhuman father
was arrested.
News of Indian depredations was re-
ceived here from Sonora to-day. The
hostiles, pursued by Mexican troops, are
fleeing in the direction of this Territory.
The District Court adjourned to-day.
Anent the Tombstone POstOfiice
TOMBSTONE, May 29.-The ridiculous
dispatch published in the San Francisco
Chronicle, from Washington, few days
ago, speculating on the chance of row
here in consequence OF change in the
postotfice, has created Ihuch merriment
in Tombstone. Clum, the retiring Post
master, was never known to do any Sc
verer fighting than with his tongue, and
even that was moderate. He would run
fifty miles at any time in preference to
making a fight. The new Postmaster
F. E. Brooks, is quiet, orderly, hotel
clerk, who is liable to jump out of his
boots at the pop of champagne cork.
The latter is very valiant as s'Sir
Joseph" " on the Pinafore stage, but out
side of that his qualifications are nil.
On the lst of June, the postoffice will be
transferred to Brooks, without either
blood or hard words.
