IT IS said the democrats will spend 8 vast amount of money to carry the state of Ohio at the coming election. It would seem from this that they do not believe their own words, that they were going to have & wslk-over at the coming election in that state. and that they have captured the German vote, etc. If they have the sure thing that they would make believe. they had better save their money for the presidential campaign.

THE services of General Crook to this territory are great; he has earned the lasting sgrAtitude of our people, and We believe they fully appreciate hIs ser vices.

Great AS is our respect for General Crook ss an Indian fighter, and his knowledge of In dian character, We cannot believe that the renegades willi ever become peace able Indians or that they can be kept upon the reservation. We are of the opinion that nIne-tenths of the people of AuzonR are also of the same belief II General Crook was always to remain among us, We would willingly nave them placed upon the reservation. But he may soon be called to other fields; a new agent may be placed in charge of the San Carlos agency at any time. With a new commander and a new agent, both of whom may be strangers to Lllb lUuiAuHs huHL shltla NDHAA aA4- zona then have against raids without end? We warn our people against taking any nasty action upon this question. Secretary Teller has stated that "he does not think these Indians should be allowed % return to the agency Gen. Crook, on the other hand, thinks they should be placed upon the reservation. The matter will doubtless be thoroughly considered in Cabinet meeting to-day and will be settled before any action that might be taken here would reach them The adjourned meeting of last night may as well meet tonight and adjourn sine dle. The CITIZEN does not believe thereis any good reason for action at this time
 if, however, it becomes necessary to take action, when the situation IS better un' derstood and more Is known of what | likely to be done, a meeting may be called and such action taken as the emergency seems to demand.

THE floods on the Missouri, and Mis- sissippi in the locality Of Alton are very heavy, and an unusual rise in the local ity of St. Louis. The warehouses in the lower part of that city have been food ed and at last accounts the water was still rising. It is to be hoped that the floods will not extend to the lower Mis- slssippi, as in that case the growing crops would be greatly damaged.

Sensational Sarah.

Sarah Bernhardt Is unsuitable. Not content with being comedian, tragediaD painter, sculptor, aeronautlst and actor she has become pantOminisi, taking the male part of Pierrot in piece written for her by Richepin, on the model of the old Italian pantomines. She wears the true clowns costume, murders the Signora Cssssndra, as usual, steals her purse, and then tries to marry the beloved Col umbine, But at this point an innova- ton is introduced. Pierrot IS haunted by the ghost of Cassandra, becomes ln- sane, and finally commits suicide This of course, was the attraction of the part for Mme. Bernhardt. It was for this she made certain visits to the Salt petriere lately that attracted some at- tentiOn. The insanity of clown mus, be ghastly, but that will not prevent the public crowding to see the hideous spec tacle
