The Sort of Road Globe Wants.

What this country wants is rail road to Globe, and not one that does not come nearer than twenty-five miles; it wants a railroad that will carry cars and not "go-carts;" it wants road which shall offer greater con- veniences than the present system of transfer of passengers and freight; it wants road that will leave some of the income it takes from our merchants and mining men in the town; it wants, just as Tucson, does, repair shops and factories, and employees, and officers; it wants the cost of transportation made so low that while the company can get a fair return the mines now valueless on account of the low grade of their ores can be brought into the market, and the rich ones enabled to pay div idends. It does not want to be rail- road company's step-child. Unless we have direct communication with the outside world, by means of a railroad passing up Pinal creek, and reaching the heart ef -our copper country, ws shall always be at the mercy of freight CTS, and the clerk of the weather.

Why isn't there censorship of the press established in Arizona, and the gentleman from Apache made its head centre? His resolution "deprecating attacks of certain of the Territorial press on General Crook, and giving currency to unfounded reports of the Indian depredations," is an insult to the intelligence of the legislature. As a newspaper man himself he ought to be ashamed of it. There is no general, no man in this land who is or can be exempt from criticism; and there is no editor whose paper is worth cent, or whose enterprise is as great as a bed bugs, who will wait. till Gen. Crook issues from his headquarters, the in- formation that the "Indians are on the war path" MT. Franklyn, even if he were backed by the legislature of Arizona, cannot lift Gen. Crook above public opinion.

So the Territorial Prison Committee return to the legislative wigwam, hav- ing gone through the veni, vidi ex- perience of Julius Caesar, but not the vici. They conquered nothing. There was no record. MT. Alexander won't tell anything, and the people who should be full of information, like the nigger in the song: Don't know nufin." What sort of Board of Commissioners has the Territory had? It is improbable that they have collu- ded with traders or officials at Yuma to defraud the Territory, but it seems An absolute ceftaInty that they have been guilty of dereliction of duty that is more than culpable-that is criminal. The legislature is powerless to punish the offenders, but it can re- fuse to assist them in any more of their inroads npon the treasury by voting in the negative for any prop osition involving further outlays of money at Yuma.

The innovation suggested by Hughes of Pima, to refuse call of the House in the absence of a member, when a bill is on it's final passage, is not agood one. The writer recalls a time when huge omnibus road steal was on it's passage through the Eleventh Legis. lature, and when it would have passed if Southwick of Mohave had not de- manded a "call of the House." until Woods of Cochise, and the member from Gila, who were unavoidably de- tained, were brought in. It was de- feated. With such rule, this county, with its representative at Yuma, could have no say while more powerful con- stituencies were squeezing her life out with oppressive measures.

it,eemes through the gold country of the East Verde, the silver region of the Tonto, the agricultural lands of the. upper Salt river and the silver, lead, gold and copper veins of Globe District. With the exception of the timber land, every acre of the country named is excellent for grazing. It is a fact that no man who has travelled the country, referred to will dispute, that between the Mazatzal and White mountains, and the thirty-fifth paral- Tel and Globe, 150,0OO head of cattle can be grazed. From this number not less than 75,O00 would be the annual product, which would seek a market, and have to be carried over this road. There cannet be g north and south road built in Arizona offering fewer construction difficulties, none so sure of a large trade, and 8 return for the money invested, and certainly none that will give Globe any advantages worth struggling for over the present paralyzing system.

 The Rio Grande Republican reprints from the Southwest an article reflect ing upon the New York Financial and Mining News, and Edward Fox, who, the writer claims is it's editor; because they "bear" Sierra Grande. We eknow nothing as to the condition of Sierra Grande ourself, but we have informa. tion altogether favorable about it, and. hope it will develope into great mine; what we object to is the attack upon a paper which has been persistent friend to the mining interests of the country, and a man whose character for probity, truthfulness and honor, wherever he is known, is deservedly high. The mining industry of this country has such bad reputation now, that its champions cannot afford to quarrel with each other. We are satisfied that the F. and M. News has information which causes it to take the position It has in Sierra Grande. If it has, its informant and not itself is to blame.'

-Why D-n 1t he's William Smith.

The Star route trial has nauseated the public in spite of the clever legal tricks of Ingersoll and his brilliant talking. When the first trial ended without the conviction of the men who had stolen millions of dollars from the people, under the thin guise of special mail service" it was fully believed that punishms6t was impossible, and the new trial was considered as an additional means of gaining notoriety for Brewster and Ingersoll and fees for all the lawyers employed; but it looks as though good might yet come out of it, the guilty be, convicted, the dignity of the country maintained, ,and the purity CD of the Republican party demonstrated. A man named Rer- dell, who knew more of the secret work ings of the Dorsey gang than any one else. by virtue of his intimate relations to them, has withdrawn his plea of"not guilty" and thrown himself upon the mercy of the court. When Rerdell was put upon the stand on behalf of the government, he explained how he had kepehis books, and how upon one occasion, Dorsey asked him if he had charged Brady with certain amounts, and upon being answered in the neg ative, said "Why damn it, he's Will liam Smith. The BELT had fondly hoped that the interesting family of Smiths would not get mixed up in this Star route business, but our hopes are blasted.

WAGNER.

Only few issues since we noticed the death of Dore, the greatest of the nineteenth century artists, and said that what he was to painting, Wagner was to music; now the latter is dead. The grand symphonies which made Bayreuth the musical centre of the world, will never again be called forth at the bidding of the masters baton. The cunning of the fingers is lost; the busy, prolific brain is quiet, and the harmonies that stirred hls soul to such magnificent effort, will get no more of his shaping. He is listening to a music grander than his own in the land that lies "beyond the unseen stars" The wierd in poetry had its best interpreter in Poe, in art, in Dore, and in music in Wagner. All are dead! Their mantles have not found other shoulders upon which to rest. The Tyre of one, the pencil of the other, and the baton of still another are idle, waiting, like the sword of William Wallace, for the hand that has power enough to wield them.

Itis, a fact that the rations have been reduced ten Der cent.
 "Immense tracts of land have been 'sown.to barley"
 That is not true. The quantity sown is small, and it is due to Capt. Crawford's kindness he furnished some thirty sacks of seed--that it is even as large as it is.
 "There are a number of Mescalero and Chihuahua Indians who rendez- vous in the mountains of Mexico"
 There is no such thing as "Chihua- hua" Indian, that we have ever heard of.
 "The,y keep Western Arizona in terror"
 They never go to Western Arizona.
 "My scouts were in pursuit when l left. "
 His Scouts are not scouts-they are simply police, and they do not leave the Agency. Scouts are em- ployed in connection with the army and led by regular officers. When MT. Wilcox gets the sole leadership, if he can pile up the profits as he piles up untruths, now, he will not want the position longer than the Republi- cans retain power.

A bill was indefinitely postponed, last week, in the Arizona legislature, which provided for the recovery of ore, fallen from mines" We never knew before exactly what was meant by the "bottom" going out of mine, and always supposed it was one of those playful liberties with language for which miners are celebrated; now we are enlightened. The trouble in passing such a law,is that it would be imperative. If the ore fell into China --our antipodes-it could not be re- covered, unless the extradition treaty was made more comprehensive.

 A great deal of money lis coming from England and Scotland to the United, States for investment in cattle, but thus far Arizona has received very little of it on account of the popular impression that the Territory is an arid desert. Once let it be understood that no portion of the world offers such sure chance for successful cattle rais- ing as Arizona and some of the money of our transatlantic cousins will come to us.

The Tucson Citizen takes credit for having explained to the Globe editors wherein they were mistaken in their construction of the narrow-gauge rail road bill" The "Globe editors" are just as capable of getting an intelli- gent knowledge of a bill as the gentle man who writes for the Citizen; and the proof that they were right is, that the legislature endorsed their position, and granted them immunity from the thieving exactions of the bill.
