AMERICAN vs. MEXICAN JUSTICE.

We are in the habit in this country of
 charging the Mexican Government with the unreasonable detention of those accused of crime, particularly
 Americans, without giving them a trial. We point with pride to our superior system of justice This self laudation IS all well enough, but is 1t true that stranger and poor man has justice done him even here where we claim to be so perfect? The Court yesterday dis charged Jose Sepulveda, who has been Incarcerated for seventeen months on a charge of stealing a mule. There were no witnesses to prove that he was guilty and yet he has been confined for seventeen months, not under sentence, but simply upon an accusation of crime. Where Is the justice of this?
 Then another case will come up to- day in which Mexican Consul Lomelia and Santiago Ainss, an able Mexican attorney of this city, have NAU1bC4NGe. Lulo lh the case of Luis Rubio, charged with murder committed in what is now Graham county. This case was brought to the attention of the CITIZEN by Mr Murphy and it's injustice vas pointed out Rubio has been held for twenty three months on purely circumstantlal evidence, the grand jury convening i'm mediate.y after the crime was committed failing to find an indictment against him. The Mexican Consul and MT. Ainsa are now trying 10 have the man discharged.
 The CITIZEN some time since made 6 crusade against the imprisonment of witnesses and secured the release of one poor man who had been incarcerated for months simply because he was an un- fortunate witness to another mans crime. These instances show that We had better correct our own system of justice before saying too much about the flaws in the l Mexican system

A LITTLE misunderstanding has oc- cured in relation to the manner ID winch the letter of MorrIs Goldvster to Delegate Oury saw the light. One of the proprietors of the CITIZEN was recently in Florence, and while there picked up the letter referred to upon the streets. The statement that 1t was found here was a mistake of the writer of the introductory comments made up- on the letter, which it was not thought necessary to correct, as it was of little moment where the letter was found as long as it was genuine. We are nowln- formed. however, that Mir. Oury's friends at Florence have come to the conclusion that the letter was obtained through Ar J.W. Davis, who occupies Mir. Oury 8 law office. It is to prevent any injustice to Mr. Davis, who IS a personal friend oi Mr. Oury, and would not be guilty oI such an abuse Of confidence, that wt make this explanation. If he were the public could rest assured that the CTrI zEN would not support him for anl office, for he would thereby prove him self base ingrate and wholly unworth! of public as well as private confidence The manner in which the letter cam into our possession was matter Of ac cident and involves no one.

The Lime Process of Blasting.

A new and interesting method, called the "lime process has lately been dis covered in England for breaking down coal m a mine without running any of the risks inseparable from blasting. The process, which is said by the Lon don Echo t. be a decided success, IS briefly this: Holes are drilled m the solid coal at intervals near the roof, and into these are inserted cartridges" of highly compressed, very caustlc hme. The cartridges are three inches ID d. ameter, and of any desired length, but they are made with a groove into which a small iron pipe can be inserted. The hole beng filed and the pipe inserted, it IS plugged or tamped to prevent the escape of steam, and, a number being ready, a small force pump Is attached by a flexible tube to the pipe and the wa- ter forced ID, which, escaping, vets the lime. The pipe is then closed by stOpcock, and the same operation re- peated at the next hole. The first re- suit is the conversion of the water into steam, which itself tends to force the coal down; but after a time the hme sweIls with irristible power, and the sprags being removed the coal comes down in large blocks. The operation of watering the lime is performed very rapidly, few minutes suffioing to fire" any required number of cartridges

Oriental Manuscript in the time of
 Christ

The Trustees of the. British Museum
 have recently acquired a most important
 collection of Oriental manuscripts con
 sisting of 13S volumes, more or less frag-
 mentary, containing, (lb Arabic commen- taries on the Bible, with the Hebrew text written by karaite Jews; 9 Ldtur-
 gies and hyms both of the Karaites and
 the Rabbinic Jews; (3l karaite pOleml- cal treatise. and liJ Grammatical, lexi- cographical, and philosophical treatlses. Among the cOmmenta ies of the He l brew text are some of the highest lm- portaace, ranking among the oldest Arabic manuscripts known. Besides being of 80 early date, those manu- scripts show the cause of the law laid down in the Talmud. that the sacred | Scriptures ulust not be written m any than the sgtIare Hebrew characters" They demoastaate for the first time that | inc Jews were m the habit of writing | tLe Scriptures m other characters. An other r0iut of extreme interest to the Oriental student is the fact that, though the commentaries are written m Arabic,
 they contain large quotations from Auau's commentaries In Aramaic, thus proving beyond doubt that Anan, the
 founder of the karaites, wrote in Ara
 maic-the language spoken in Palestine ID the tlIue of Christ.

STRONG ENDORSEMENT.

l. is a credit to any man to be followed
 by the good wishes and the endorse
 nent of community in which he for. merly resided. It is one of the strong points in Judge Porter's favor that he will run the best where he Is best known In Msricopa and Yuma counties he will poll an almost solid vote, though both these counties are naturally hostile to him politically. Judge Porter not alone possesses the regard of the people where he has resided in this Territory, but in New York where be was born and where be commenced his active life, he IS still remembered with respect and regard. The Albion, Orleans county N. T., Chron- icle has the following editorial notice of Judge Porter's candidacy:
 I've are glad to hear that ex-Judge DeForest Porter heads the Republican Territorial ticket for Representative in Congress.
 we have long known the Judge, and can say nothing but good of him. He was born in this county, and graduated at the Canton University in the State of New York, studying law in this village with the eminent lawyers, Church & Davis. He was admitted to the bar in 1885, when he removed to Lockport, Nj agara county, New York, and entered into the practice of his profession with great success. He was nominated for District Attorney, and ran several hun dred ahead of his ticket in the election. h 1888 he formed a law partnership with Hon. Gaylord J. Clark, formerly State Prison Inspector, and opened an office ID Omaha, Nebraska, and here be was elected to the Nebraska Legisla- ture, in which body he soon became leader, and prominent in his opposition to the schemes of iobbery and pecula- tion before that Legislature. The Judge was appointed one of the man. agers on the impeachment trial of Gov ernor Butler, and made the closing ar- gument for the State. He was after wards appointed Associate Justice of Arizona, which office he held for nearly eleven years, resigning the same in May 6. 1882.
 "The Judge is a mao of quick percep- ton, uuswerving integrity and fine abil- fly, and it would be an honor to Arizo-a Ia, as well as to Judge Porter, for him to sit in the counsels of the Nation in tue interest Of the Territory. With his large acquaintance of the representative men in Washington, and throughout the East and West, it seems to us that he is particularly qualified to fill the high office to which he has been nom- mated, and if the people consult their own interests the Judge will be over whelmingly elected"

TIE Florence Enterprise has the following in relation to the building of a railroad to that thriving little cIty:
 It IS absolutely certain that Florence will have a railroad inside of two years, and probably sooner. Three companies are anxious to build to this place. The only thing keeping them back at present is the uncertainty that each company feels as to the movements of its rVals. This condition of affairs cannot last long, as some one of the companies Wlll make & "break" soon. No point m the Territory can offer better inducements to railroad builders than does Florence. IL has more and better resources than suv other Arizona town, and with the aid Of a railroad would soon become the largest, most substantial, prosperous business and mining center or the Territory. It needs only careful eIaml- nation of the field to prove this asser- ton to the entire satisfaction or any elear-headed and far-seelng business man.
 IL is to encourage the general build ing roads. that if built will open up oui splendid Territory, furnish easy access to rich agricultural lands in our valley' and the almost fsbulously rich mines 1T our mountains, that has led the CTTIzE, to oppose unfriendly Legislation agalns' corporations.

William F. Brickley, an employee on the Southern Pacific road was severely injured near Bowie station on the 7th inst.

AN ARIZONA EXPOSITION.

Everything gives promise of a lysl,
 Tall and winter in mining circles. The
 developments of the past year have beer
 most satisfactory and many legitimate
 operations are ready to swell the bullion output of the Territory. The list of dividends from our bonanzas is still hattering and keeps Arizona before the country in its most favorable light The means of communication are so com piete now that it is possible for Es st. ern investors to visit the Territory and satisfy themselves as to the value or promise of property offered them. The result IS to make it more difficult to palm of wildcat properties. It all tends to make mining the legitimate business that it ought to be.
 The proposition made to establish an Arizona Mining Exposition in this city IS matter which should not be allowed to end in mere talk and few nevspaper articles. Tucson is the proper place for such an exhibit to have 1t of service to the whole Territory and make it repre- sentative in its character. Tucson is not a mere mining camp but is interest ed in the general development of all the mining districts in the Territory, for upon the general prosperity and stability Of all depends our future growth and commercial importance. Such an ex- Llbit here could be conducted fairly and no interests would suffer.
 Then, again, few people come into the southern portion of the Territory with out visiting Tucson, and here more people from abroad would see such an exhibition than anywhere else. Many people stop here without any particular interest in mining, and with prejudices against 1t. A properly conducted min Iug exposition would tend to awaken interest and do away with prejudice.
 The citizens of Tucson can well afford to take hold of this matter with a will and make 1t a success. If our people will do this, we have little doubt that the legislature will be willing to make an appropriation in lid of an enterprise so msnifestly in the interest of .he whole Territory.

SENATOR JOIN A. LOGAN, of Illinois, passed last night in the city. He ar. rlved on the evening tram and departed on the morning train for Sonora, where he goes to visit a mining property about 22 miles from Hermo sil- To. He will return immediately but whether he will again visit this city or proceed directly east We are not in- formed. His sojourn here vas made pleasant by Col Bean, Gen. Robbins, Judge Hoover, Hon. J. F. Knapp, Col. Prouty and others, and he evinced a lively interest in the mineral prospects of the Territory. If the Senator uld be prevailed upon to visit some of our leading camps like TombstoDe, Total Wreck, Bisbee and the Columbia Cop per works in the Santa Ritss, he would acquire a knowledge and an interest in the affairs of our Territory that would lead him to espouse our cause in any matter coming before the general gov ernment As it IS we are satisfied that General Logan is fsvorably impressed with the magnitude and importance of ouy resources and will prove a friend of Arizona as he has been of other strug- gline Territories in the great West.
 PEOPLE outside of this county, but who are interested in the general peace, quiet and good reputation of the Ter rltory, are anxious for the reelection of Sheriff Paul. They know that the better element of the community are in his favor and they know as well that the lawless element will move heaven and earth to secure his defeat. Sheriff Paul has made reputation for Pima county for good order and the prompt arrest of criminals, such as a frontier county rare ly enjoys, and we cannot afford to take any chances on new and inexperienced man. Sheriff Paul will be reelected by a handsome majority if the better ele- ment predominstes in this county.
