HONEST MEN FOR OFFICE.

It is estimated that in ten years, should the reduction of the national debt continue as at present, America will stand almost alone amongst the Nations ,as being unin- cumbered. The administration, or party, which has carried country intact through mighty war, waged for the disintegration, calmed the convulsive heaving consequent and incident thereto, and has, from the almost chaotic and bankrupt condition ot affairs in 1865. introduced us to an era of peace and prosperity in 1882, unparal- leled in the history of the world, IS surely worthy of the confidence and trust ot all who can presage the future as judged by the past
 As no man is wholly perfect, still less can it be expected of any corporation or senate to be wholly immaculate. This IS however the fault of the people, and not the party. The careful husbandman watches his grow ing crops and orchard with jealous eye, using his knife with courage and effect to eradicate incipient disease. From the rank and file of the great Republian party, rep resenting progression and civil and religious liberty in its true spirit, we must select the material wherewith to infuse new life into the branches which show moral disease ot any description whatever, and regardless or ,o,;tion. influence or wealth; only retain that element which we believe will contrib rts to our social and material prosperity. Honor. Honesty, and Truth-these three .bould characterize those upon whom the mantle of great trust may descend, ana the Oreatest of these is the first, because ln it are merged the others. No matter how obscure the office may be, vast responsl- bility is most assuredly assumed by the rn- cumbent. We are too prone to think with other mems minds, and in place of carefully weighing the merits and demerits Of aspiring candidates for office. cast our votes bhndly because the ticket upon which they are placed is that of our choice The selection of the fttest should guide us In the noml- nation; ''the right man in the right place be our ratchword, while, advance in the scale of trust and responsibility imposed, should be the reward of him who has been ssfaithful over few things" In other words. the law of evolution applied pollti- c.llv. if studied with the same profundity of thought as devoted by the naturalist to the development of species, might attain the same happy result
 Given, the Republic party, in which ex- i,ts so largely the proper elements, let 1t be our duty to evolve therefrom that material which shall in the time to come conduce to fidelity in office and the unity and honor ot the cause we serve.

MoHAvEs ON TIE RAMPAGE.


 We are informed that, on the 2d inst, after council of three days, in which they were joined by portion of the Hu- alpais, the Moiave Indians, who live and farm north, and apart, from the Colo rado River Agency, came en masse to Fort 1[oiave, for the purpose of having an interview with the army office in com mand of that garrison, and asked for one months provisions. Their reason for making this request, they stated, is on account of their destitution of sustenance at present, as they do not expect any yield from their crops, neither will the mesquite bean ripen within the period for which rations are asked. It has been rumored that during the council, which was held as stated above, large ma jority of the Indians were in favor of going on the war path killing white men they term it) in case their request is not acceded to. They were informed by the military commander of the Fort that they would be furnished with such pro- visions as the law allows in similar cases as soon as the necessary authority grant ing the issue is obtained. The Indians state that Asakett, one of their head chiefs, has been constantly impressing upon their minds this subject during the past few months, and was the cause of agitating his people and bringing about their denouement; they say he desires provisions more on his own account than that of his people, for whose welfare he entertains very little interest. This chief has the reputation of beinga professional began, and is too lazy to work, unlike the major portion of his tribe, which may be considered semi-industrious

THE ST. LOUIS & SAN FRANCISCO

There is strong probability that work will be commenced on the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad at this end within the next sixty days, and that the first two hundred and fifty miles east of Albu- querque will be at once put under con tract. This statement Is not based upon mere idle rumor, but comes 50 direct from headquarters, and so well authenti- cated that 1t may be regarded as much more than bare probability. That such is the present intention of the company may be put down as positive fact, and if present plants are not interfered with by some unfavorable contingency, at this time unexpected, our readers may calcu- late with reasonable certainty upon hay ing the pleasure of seeing the enterprise referred to fully under way by the expira- tion of the time named above.
 The line commonly known as the St. Louis and San Francisco is, as the readers of this paper are generally aware, proper ly the eastern division of the Atlantic and Pacific, and will be so known when the entire line is completed. The head quarters of the road will be in this city; the chief engineer, L. M. Clement, who came here with President Mutt, during his recent visit, has established his office in Albuquerque, and Is in charge of the whole line, including that portion of the road projected east from this point through the Indian Territory, as well as the west ern portion running from Albuquerque to aliforria.-Albuquerque Journal.

TIE CoMEr-A paper few days since speaking of the comet says 1t can be seen near the constellation Casseopeia. As there are but few people who are ac- ouainted with the location of the con stellation above mentioned, we give the information as near as possible: "Casseo- peio, a northern constellation, easily re cognized by the form, letter w, on the opposite side of tAe pole from the Great Bear; named from the wife of Cepheus, King of Ethiopia, and mother of Andro- meda. The constellation was distin- guished in l572 by brilliant temporary star which shone for eighteen months and then disappeared"

SAN CARLOS.

A correspondent of the Globe Silver Belt writing from San Carlos, under date of May 3lst says.
 Chief of Scouts Colvig went out last night to look for Chiricahua named siusec, who left the reservation yes terdav. and also 10 look out for White Mountain renegades. This morn ing at sunrise, about twelve miles from here, the chief ran into White Noun tain camp, where, as soon as they saw him coming, covered up one Indian with blankets. The chief told his Indian scouts to uncover him. When they did so they found he had Sharps rifle and revolver laying alongside of him. The Indian grabbed the revolver and com menced firing on the scouts, the White Mountains joining in the firing. The In dian scouts then opened on them. The Indian under the blanket and squaw were killed and two squaws wounded by the firing. It is impossible to say whether the scouts shot did it. The chief of scouts reports the dead Indian as one of those implicated in the killing of Turner and Moody at Cherry creek last September, and also the same Indian who bragged that he killed Captain Hentig at Cibicu. His name was Os-kis-on-on-o-yel.

GOVERNMENT. TIMBER FOR DOMES-
 TIC PURPOSES.
IMPORTANT RULING BY SECRETARY TELLER.


 Secretary Teller has just made an i'm portant ruling in regard to tEe construction hereafter to he placed upon the act of June 3, 1878, authorizing the citizens of "Colo- rado, Nevada and the territories to fell and remove timbers from the public domain for domestic purposes" The department has construed the words flor domestic pur- poses" to mean the cutting of timber by in- dividuals for their own use, and not for sale Numerous suits have been brought and many are now pending upon this basis Secretary Teller holds that to take this view IS to defeat the very ii tent of the act, which was to provide q way by which needed timber for mines, mills and pioneer towns can be legally obtained. He holds that any such use within the state or territory, whether by the individual cutting the tIm- bar or by mill or mll man to whom it has been sold, is a consumption ''for domestic purposes, protected protected by the act. The timber cut must be, however, of the size required by department regulations. This important decision will materially change the course of proceedings in cases of timber depredations, both of the Interior and the Department of Justice.

Petitions are being circulated in Coohise county pressing the Supervisors to make suitable provisions for having that county represented in the Exposition at Denver. This section should follow suit, and fl eur Supervisors cannot be induced to appropri- ate any funds for tie purpose of having our mineral wealth properly displayed bef' re the large numbers of capitalists who wlll undoubtedly visit that Exposition, then our public spirited citizens should devise some means whereby at least some of the nrmberless elegant private collections Of ores could be sent on to Denver. NOW, that Central Arizona is being brought within easy travelling distance of the Eastern cities, a proper exhibition of our minerals would no doubt be the means of inducing many of the wealthy men who will inspect the dis plays at the Exposition to visit our section It is a golden opportunity, and should not be allowed to pass untried.

Giuseppe Garibaldi, the Italian patriot, IS no more. He was born on July 4th, 1897, at Nice, consequently was at the time of his death 75, lacking one month. At early age he was educated to the profession of his father. that of mariner His second voy- age was to Rome, when the condition of that city made deep impression on his mind and led him into those revolutionary ideas which, in February, 1884, resulted ln his exile from Italy. His life has been one of continued ''ups and downs" He held many positions of eminence in his early and middle life, and, finally, in 1850, at Staten Island. N. r., he found himself earning living by daily labor in a candle factory. This did not last long, however, and he took up his former occupation as mariner. He made several voyages In the Pacific, com manding a Peruvian barque. Finally he went to the rescue fhis government in 1859 on the breaking out Of the war between Italy and Austria.
 In 1860 he he went to Sicily, landed at Marsala, took PaleI nc. and Messina, and be- came Dictator of the Island. Subsequently he went to Caprera, where he resided some years. Again we find h-m in Florence, Paris, etc., always lending aid to the liberal side. He appeared as mariner, dictator, general, and writer.

POLITICAL.

As the time $ shortening fast when we will be called upon to vote fer those who are to fll the various offices for the years of 1888 and 1884, would it not be well to com mence canvassing the subject with view of selecting acceptable persons for such po- sitionsl In little while we are to call the primaries and then the County Convention, after which we are to have a Territorial Convention for the purpose of putting in nomination candidate for Congressional honors and a Superintendent of Public ln- struction The MINER does not wish to dictate as to who shall be the nominee for this or that position. We wish to favor the interests of those men who are selected on the square for all offices to be given by the ballot, and to that end we solicit the opinions of representative men frcm each voting pre- cinct as to their choice in the premises. It IS to be hoped that no man who has beenre- miss, derilect or unfaithful in any way in office, will again be put before the people for reelection, because such men Wil be re- pudiated at the ballot box in November. The masses of the people watch carefully all the maneuvres and acts of officials, and si- lently store them away for future use, and, precisely as the acts of an official are, just so are they weighed. If we have weak kneed Republicans in office, who are always courting favor with the enemy and punishing those who put them into office, we say, send them, as Jim Fisk was wont to say, 'up the spout" or to some other place; Tut don't send them back to rule.
 The Republican party has the bese ma terial in the county from which to make se- lections, and it should be the careful am to select competent, careful, and, above all, honest men for every position. If we are to fail, let's fail working for the worthy only. We are inflicted with, as a general rule, those who court public opinion and are always bending their knee of favor and patronage toward the camp of those who be- lieve in, and vote for, to this day, Thomas Jefferson. Moral courage is an ex- cellent thing, and. if We are to work for ticket, let it be composed of those who are not afraid of the enemy, and those who will stand by their friends through all honor able seiges.
