MAGNOLIA, March 9th, 1883.
Business is very dull all over the county.
Candidates are getting too numerous to
mention. There will be about six for
Sheriff, five for Representative, and four for
Treasurer, and there is no telling how
many for Clerks, for the Board of Super
visors, Justices of the Peace, etc.
Mr.. Battaile, of the Times and Intelli-
geucer, seems very anxious about candi-
dates announcing themselves. Won't some
considorate Ofiice-seeker announce himself,
and relieve Mr.. Battailes anxiety
Taxes are being collected as rapidly as
possible. Taxpayers are given until the
18th of April, before the damage will be
added. Land will be sold in June.
Work on the new Court House will COM
mence about April LIST. Some are in favor
of moving it to Summit or McComb City,
but it seems to be permanent feature at
Magnolia. 1t would be very poor policy
to move it, when the county owns $5, 600
Jail, and as pretty building site in Mag
uolia as there is anywhere in the State.
1t seems as if the people of the 4th District
are determined t o hold the Unbelievable
of the engine of our county government
sooner or later.
The bridges of the county are generally
in very bad condition, and the county
tax for 1882 and 1883, when collected, will
be just about enough to pay the outstand-
ing debt.
The post Office at Osyka was robbed a
few days since, by unknown parties. Not
only this, but several mean things were
done around the town.
Smallpox is reported at McComb, but it
has been contradicted by some of the ply
sicians there. Building is on the "boom."
Wedding bells are rumored in that place.
Summit wants cotton factory and q
fire engine. Can't she be accommodated.
She is ahead on one subject. She has q
negro who has applied for license to
practice medicine, aud signs II. ID. to his
naRe. DENIS.

IT Is rather unfortunate that there should be a difference of opinion as to the disposition of the renegade Apaches.

The CITIZEN. and we be- lieve nine-teuths of the people Of Ari. zona, would gladly see the renegades re- moved from the Territory. Genera Crook seems Co think that the renegades are now completely cowed and sGbdued and that they can be kept on the reser- vauon. The CITIZEN has great respec' for the judgment of General Crook: n, man better understands the Apache than be. Yet We had hoped to see the day when they wIll be removed from Arizona, and We still hope that such ar engagements may be made. By placing the renegades in the Indian Territorl we would know that there would be Dc more raids. But If they are put on the San Carlos reservation We can only hop for the best.

TIE CAMPA1aN IN OHIO.

The campaign in Ohio promises to be an active one. Next year there will be a President to elect, and from a party standpoint the election in Ohio will be of more than ordinary importance. The republicans are gaining confidence, and believe that they will be able to elect their man. The democrats also talk very loud.and say that they will resurrect a "William Allen" The democrats have nominated Judge Hoadiey, for Governor; both tickets now being comDleted the fight will soon begin. But democrats should remember that this is not an ''of year" and that they have not been able to carry Ohio except in off years for many years past. It Is true that the re- publicsns have lost some votes by the complications arising out of lhe liquor question, and tine democrats will no doubt be able to secure portion of the German vote, but not enough to turn the tide in their favor. The temperance element, which has a ticket in the field, draws support from both parties; but the larger portion of the prohibition party will drop out of the ranks before election day, and as usual will be found voting with the republicans. The Ger mans, many of whom have a repugnance to the democratic party, will also return to the republican fold. Minor questions will b. lost sight of iu the coming campaign, and more interest will be taken in ques- tions oi national importance. civil ser vice and the tariff question will be
 brought prominently before the people. Tariff, is undoubtedly the coming issue. The position of the republican party If
 well known upon thIs question, and 1t will lose but little from the decided stand it will take. But it will not be so easy for the democrats to hold the rank and file, and when convention day comes It will be hard matter for them to draft platform upon which they can unite and stand. Many lead ing democrats are in favor of a protec- tive tariff, and they are so strong m their convictions that they will not sub init to free trade plank, while large portion of the party will have no other. It is announced that Harrison and Lo
 gan will take an active part ID the Ohio campaign, owing to its important bear ing on next years election. \ senator Is also to be elected, and the local aspir- ants for that position will fight hard to secure majority of the legislature. While it is rather early to make any pre- dictions, 1t looks as though the Republi- cans now have the inside track and will come out ahead on tho home stretch.

GE9UErLFsS FEARS

The Star of yesterday published a dis patch from Wilcox, that was rather in the nature of ar editorial. which finds fault with Agent Wilcox because he will not receive the h0stiles al the agency, and expresses fear lest such acton will cause se1ous results. Now II there are any sucu serious results in store, this is 5ha time to settle them once and forever But i' the hostiies are allowed to sur render, and are placed among the res erv 4riou Indians, We can never hope for peace iu Arizona. The CITIZEN believes that Secretary Teller IS right in not al lowing the r-ne ades to return to the reservation. The same dispatch states tha. "the-e Indians, (meaning the cap tIv s) fear the "Grey Fox" as they cal CT naral Crook, and unless he is per mit-ed to manage them as his iud- meat directs, we may expect shorty one of the most bloody Indian wars wit uessed for years" Nov We are at a loss to understand how the Indians are to be put oa the reservation aud at the same time remain under C neral Crook. The CITIZEN IS Of the opinion that the renegades will at lea t for the present remain under General Crooks control, and that be will be able Co -ull them. The CITIZEN Is also of the opinion that General Crook will either by diplomacy OF further campaigns. claiare the remainder of the reuegades. aGi when captured We have no idea Chat ho will be In favor of placing then ou the reservation. The people of Ari- zaaa have bad about enough If thes, rele-ad-s. and do not want them among them eI.hcr oa tine San Carlos or any other reservation m Arizona, and what IS more will not allow them to re main n the Territory, if their wishes are to be consulted.
