The last number of the SENTINEL ad vocates the establishment of sugar manu- facturies in Yuma, aud pledges the mer- chants of this place to material financial aid. The main idea is borrowed from the Free Press, but what interest of own nership the merchants of Yuma can ac- quire is case of "quien sabe." Their combined capital couldn't lay the corner stone in the foundation of the proposed enter prise.-Free Press.
 The substance of the above is, first, the falsehOOd that our arli- cfe ''pTedges the merchants of this place to material financial aid" relative to this enterprise. The SENTINEL's language is:- "Her business men would libef- ally encourage such an appropri- ale and important enterprise. Second, the untrue assertion that "the main idea is borrowed from the Free Press;" and We chal- lenge the proof that the Free Press has ever expressed single idea or published q single line relative to the construction of d sugar refinery hereaboutS. The dominant point of the above stricture-is the significant dis courteous ipsinuation against the ability, the spirit and the enter prising disposition of our Yuma business men, who, if we mistake not, will not feel themselves fiIly complimented by the Press as serting that "their combined cap ital couldn't lay the corner stone in the foundation of the prOpOs- ed enterprise" This is q virtual insinuatiOn that our Yuma buai- ness men have not responsibility of character sufficient to enable

The presumption that the lat

The presumption that the late unusually heavy rains which have visited this part of the country have had some part of their cause. in the presence of so much iron and steel, as obtain in the railroad tracks and the roll ing stock of the roads, has its ba- sis in philosophical science. The condensations from the rolling wheels of the cars, under the great weight of the loads, per cussively sets free the latent cal oric of the rails, (mOre than Of the wheels), and in this state it is electro magnetism, until by ab- sorbing different proportions of the atmospheric gases the elec- tricity parts with its magnetism, when the electricity becomes in dependent, quickly surcharg ing the immediate air, and necessary electrodes, toward the nearest body of water, are established. The friction sustained ny the at mOsphere by these currents gen. crates excessive irarefaction This excites winds from different courses, and these so condense the electrified air-particles as to precipitate moisture, which con- denses to rain. This is a subject worthy of scientific investigation. aud scientists will soon furnish the modus operandi of the laws involved.

Yuma, Arizona, is growing place, and must, in the course of a few years become of very considerable importance. A num- Der of people from the North are t0 be found in Arizona, who are seeking their fortunes, but as a rule with indifferent success. Our correspondent, R. T. Lockwood. Esq, who has taken up his resi- dence in Yuma, announces, as we see in the Arizona SENTINEL, :" that he has opened a law office, and has entered upon the prac tice of his profession. He studied law in Ohio, whence, after a brief practice he emigrated to Oregon, where in 1859 he was admitted to practice in all the State Courts as well as in the Supreme Court; in 1869, he was admitted to practice in the courts of Washington Ter ritory; and in 1879 was admitted to the courts of Arizona. Hence, it will be seen that NOrtherners, who may have any law business to transact in Yuma and other  parts of the Territory, have at their command an able lawyer, on whose fidelity we doubt.not they can fully rely. -Germantown, Pa.

If it is true, as is asserted by The I, ess j.

determined 10 have "Ycs" printed on all
the Constitutional Amendments to he voted

they arc assuming powers that do not he
long to them. These Constitutional qucs-
lions are not political, the ola IN reference
10 the area of square miles in the formation
of new counties especially, and we would
like to know when and where the Executive
Committee derived authority to decide how
the Democratic voters Of the State should
vote upon this question. We think the
proper aul fair ctusc for the Committee to
pursue is TO have 'Yes'' printed upon one
half and "No' upon the 9th r half of the
tickets in reference to this particular
Amendment, or leave them all blank so that
the voters may write YES" or ono" as
they may prefer. But if the State EXccu-
