A letter from Capt. Mellon at
the Needles states that the work
of transferring freight by steamer
is ended and that during the
whole tine the steamer was en-
gagged in the work no accident of
any kind occurred with the OK
ception that on the last day one
member of the Yuma Sentinel's
staff was grabbed by a poodle dog
Just as the steamer landed. The
said member in trying to get
away from the poodle fell under
the cars, the wheels of which
passed over him, and some more
Sentinel hash was the result

There was no member of the

FOLTICAL-.

So far Arizona politics are deci-
dedlv mixed, and the result, like
an old MAIDS usefulness, is past
finding out, at this time. On the
republican side are arrayed Van
Arman and StebbiuS, with the
apparent chances in-TOmbstone.
Il looks as though the joint trip
of Churchill and Stebbins to
Chicago had resulted in a mutual
understanding favorable to the
latter and not unfavOrable to the
former. On the democratic side
sand Head, Baker, Wise and
any dark horse with nerve
enough to enter. Head is well
known all over the Territory,
Baker has a local influence OF
some value, Wise is q ruetler and
talker, aud the dark horse is q
stroug animal of uncertain tenn
per. A!oof from all these COM
plications is large force of in
dependent thinkers and voters
who propose to support the best
man for Congress in the belize
that a territory can be nothing
more than a petitioner and, there
fore, needs only Il good advocate.
These Independents are theoreti-
calIy about right. A delegate
from a territory has no vote in
Congress, and, therefore, weighs
down the scale Of representation,
as fal as principles are concerned.
not one jOt. He stands in the
pnsiiiGn Of an attorney for the
territory he represents. and his
sole object is to Obtain for his con-
stituency as much substantial
benefit as he can. His usefulness
is not rated in accordance with his
party predictions. On his return
home he is asked, "what have
you done?" not chow did you
vote"" and, unless he has accom-
plished something beneficial. he
is looked upon as no good and
relegated to obscurity. The in
dependent element this year
holds the balaUce Of power.
The Arizona sentinel., 1884-08-16

The next session OF the legisla-
ture should be made an import.
ant one by the passage of wise
and useful laws. Local desires
should be sunk in an effort for the
general good. There are "A great
many general laws needed, and a
number now on the statute book
which should be erased. In the
administration ofjustice, criminal
and civil, great difficulty is ex.
perienced in interpreting appar-
emily conflicting provisions. There
are too many laws as compiled in
the fact that many which are
obsolete remain in the book,
rendering confusion in determin-
ing actual existing law from that
which has been repealed. There
should be recOmpiIatiOn or the
creation of a code. The revenue
act should be overhauled, espe-
cially in the mode of assessing
and collecting taxes. Laws
should be made, more fully pro
tecting and encouraging the in
vestment. of capital within the
territory. A commission should
be established to make practical
tests for artesian water, and all
internal improvements in the
way of building roads ETC., should
be substantially aided. In fact,
the coming legislature should pay
attention to the creation of laws
which will bear equally upon all
portions Of the territory and tend
towards its advancementin civil
ization and wealth.

RUNNING COMMENTS.

One Morgan Wise is candidate
for Congress, subject to the action
of tie democratic convention.
That political body will do well to
mind its Qs and let its VS. alone.
It will require Head work.
Several residents of Florence
are sojourning in Yuma, 10 es-
cape the intense heat prevalent in
the former place. It Is stated to
be hot enough there to melt brass,
which explains the fact that the
editor of the Ente. prise has lat
terly grown less cheeky.
Ex-Mayor Straus, of Tucson,
although a victim of compressed
resignation, has, at least one com
fort. The denizens ofye ancient
ly honorable pueblo have since
been unable to discover any head
to the city council. and are bitter
ly complaining Of that body's
persistent and insuferable display
of tail. Since the retirement Of
Stratus, the council is in about the
same dilemma as a burro sudden
ly bereft of hraying privileges.
Affairs political, in Tucson, are
as badly mixed as picnic OF Ia
drunk. Party affiliations seemV
have been lost IN the general cofIs
fusion, and even the oldest poll
tlcians are engaged in jumping
backwards and forwards over
several defined political fences,
in the general belief thatit might
be dangerous to locate perman,
emily on any one of them. Watch
ing some of the Old-timers thai
we know, from this distance, anu
noticing the rapidity with which
they change base, is most bewild'
ering. Democ ratio manipulation,
have, apparently, been strung or
a line, gyrating to the swing 0
one Browder and H. S. Stevens
and it would puzzle the mos
astute politician on earth to tel
what color the two latter are
striped. Parliamentary they
travel as smoothly as a 5alky
mustang yoked with a blind jack
ass. But latterly the democrats
have organized club, the frs
use of which was to knock Messr,
BroWder and Stevens clear out O.
the ring. Straus was the adverse
manipulation, and acted, as he
looks, like huge pair of candle
shutters. Evidently he snuffeG
too close and put out the demo.

The great sensation which
several Democratic politicians
have darkly limited at recently
has seen the light in the columns
Of the Chicago Times. 1t isa story
of Blaine'S alleged intimacy
with young school teacher in
Bourbon county, Pa; over thirty
five years ago-a story which
bears the mark of fraud on il in
every line, because the Inventors
have not dared to give a single
name Of the persons Interested
not even that of the notary before
whom the affidavits were taken.
Such a story might gain credence
among people who were careless
of the proofs of any charge, but it
will not have any weight with
the American public. The Gle
veiand scandal may have been
exaggerated. but all the names,
dates and facts were given, and
that the story is substanti lily true
Is shown by the tardy admissions
of Cleveland's friends. If the
Democratic managers were eager
TO get up scandal about Blaine
they should have paid more re
gard To the accessories of the
story. As il is, their work will
simply recoiI on their own heads.

The union miners. of Tombstone,
have at last capped the climax
by an attempt at cowardly assass-
ination. The leaders of the at
tack on the Grand Central hoist
ing works should be ferreted out
at no matter what cost, and re-
ceive the highest punishment
which can be melted out to them
under the law. 1t must not be
said of Arizona that justice is
powerless in the protection of
lives and property, and et,unless
these men are punish ed, capital
will not be invested in our re-
sources and thieves and murder
exs will feel at liberty to locate

a 1hipping Point,

Pierre is a shipping point for all
Black Hills freight sent over both tho
Chicago & North Western and Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul Railways. Ship
ments via. the latter line to it's Missouri
River terminus at Chamberlain are sent
up the river to Pierre for trans-shipment
to the Hills. The traffic between
Pierre and Deadwooa is immense. In
the transportation of freight there are
10000 oxen and mules and 1900 men
constantly employed. the tonnage
amounting to about 70, 600, 0o0 pounds
per aunum ,end the money annually paid
for freight.rg, amounting to over $780,
600 is expended in Pierre.
Pierre is the headquarters for Military
and Ranch Supplies forwarded by river
to the various forts aad military posts
and to different points along the ':Big
Muddy" where small settlements have
sprung up. Pierre has the trade, alto
gether, Of not less than $4,000 people,
including Indians. q. s. A. Quarter
masters Office, government storehOuses,
and cGees of Collector of Customs,
and Internal Revenue Collector are To-
Gated here. In the river traffic there
are twenty five steamers engaged during
the season, plying between Pierre and
points above and below.
Building Activity.
During the past season there was
erected brick courthouse, three brick
business blocks, and over 800 wooden
buildings, involving an expenditure of
over 81, 100000. There is now in pro-
cess of erection the Park Hotel, q brick
structure 100x120, four stories high, and
everything indicates that there will be q
great increase in building during the
year 1884, and there will be an active de-
mand for building material and mechan-
ics in all branches of trade.
The first industry established in Pierre
was brick making, of which there was
manufactured last season over 1000, 600
of superior quality, and arrangements
have now been completed to manufact-
ure more than 8, 600, 900 the coming sea-
son. There is great demand here for
iron work, and . foundry and machine
shop which could make cast pieces for
buildings, breaking plows for the farm
ers, and do repair work on implements
and steamboats,, would do very profit
able business.
