we think our city can be lighted in the
same manner to much greater advantage
Judging from the amount of inf1amable
gas that flows from the Acers' we'll, it
would not be difficult matter to obtain
sufficient amount to light the town by
drilling two or three more. And IN our
case, the wells would be right in town
and the expense of piping would be
a comparatively snail sum.
Fort Scott Monitor: Five prisoners
confined in the county Jail have made
their escape. They had not yet been
locked in their cells for the night, and
were altogether in the corridor of the
jail. Their escape was made with a
very simple contrivance-a case knife.
They had sawed in twain the hinge on
the outside door and by united and
Herculean pull succeeded in springing
the door from the wall and thus made
an opening through which they made
their escape. Sheriff Dougherty soon
made the discovery and but for guard
ing the door probably might have cap
tured some of the fugitives. The police
and other officers were notified and dill.
ilgent search was made but none OF them
were rearrested. The prisoners that es-
capped were as follows: Charles Tucker,
James Chamberlain, Charles Bigss. B. NJ.
Lausford, and w. Hitchcock. The es-
cape was not caused by negligence on the
part of any one, as it has always been

THE nc ssity of a north and south
 rAIlrJad becomes more apparent every Il y Speaking from the standpoint of a re irHt of Tucson, II Is an absolute want tn 4 must not be delayed any great leng of time longer. We now pay heavy tribute to the agriculturists of thrifty California that should enrich our own Territory. Our fruits cost the con
 sumer such prices that he cannot well afford to purchase as largely as he might wish, while the same articles are rottIng upon the tr es and vines a hun dred miles away. The flour we consume is brought hundreds of miles and high freight rates paid when farmers in the Salt River valley have no sale for theII
 large surplus crop of grain. All our supplies are brought TOW from Califor
 mia, while nearly every article imported Is produced short distance tO the north. There can be no question but the great agrIcultural valleys of the Giia, Salt aud San Pedro rivers must b come the gardens and granaries of the Territory, and it only needs means of transportation to render living in Arizona as cheap as in California. This argument is equally applicable to the towns to the north through which railroad must pass, as the de- maud upon the over production of the great valleys, will be made both in the northern and southern tier of counties where agriculture IS only experimental. To the towns Of Florence and Phenx with their tributary valleys, a north and south railroad means life and prosperity. Tue wonderfully fertile soil produces such exuberant crops that market must be found fir the surplus, nd & market eau be reached proitably only by railroad. The people should re- fleet upon this subj ct, and crystalize 1t into shape anl build the road. There is capital enough among the people who are to be directly benefited by the road to build it, but if 1t cannot be made available surely a scheme pos se.sitg 2 such rare advantages can enlist plenty of outside capital to cOntruct 1t.

IS another column will be found a communication from Tombstone detail ing some of the labors devolving upon Judge D. H. Piuney, m reply to certain vague charges that have been made against that gentleman. Having y't seen no statement of the specific rharses against Judge Puuey other than that he had neglected Lis dufIes and had so- jourued nearly the entire summer m the east, We are unable to speak by the card upon either side Of the question l; IS certain, however, that Judge Pinney has endeavorei to conscieDtiously discbarke his laborious duties ID an acceptable manner, and that he should make enr- mics thereby is rather to his credit than otherwise. Every one will admit that Judge Pinney has acted fearlessly m his judicial capacity, and has frequently visited penalties upon criminals that seemed harsh, but when we consider that the law had been made jest and by-word by the criminal classes wh' have infested our Territory, we realize that it IS only by stern administration of justice that the country can be re stored to peace and safety. In his ab sence from the Territory, Judge PIuney doubtless has ample excuse, and II Ger tainly is uo grave offense. If these be the only grounds for complaint sgains that gentleman, the charges against hIm simply resolve themselves into an eu- doTsement of his qualifications and fit ness for the exalted position he oc- cuDies.

THE Democrats of Tucson have met and manifested their extreme joy in a national victory before it is settled that they have won the battle. We have Ia dim recollection that even wilder de- monstrations were indulged in eight years ago upon the supposition that victory had been achieved by thelr party, but their hilarity was of very short duration. A vsgue remembrance uf that occasion seemed to pervade the present meeting and an uncertainty of the outcome of the official count m lace them feel that they were doing some thing really foolish. Even the usual bomOast and buncombe of the speakers was made with strained efforts and di not meet a responsive echo in the hearts of those present.

THE count in New York seems to drag its weary length along in the most agonizing manner. So far very many unimportsnt changes have been found and few errors covering a considers- ble number of votes, which have re- suited in cutting down somewhat the plurality claimed by the Democrats. Should there be found no greater dis creRancies Tn the figures of those coun- ties in winch the official count is yet in- complete, the claims of the Democrats will prevail, but until all the returns are canvassed the Republicans will contest that claim. It is hardly probable that any legal steps will be taken to set aside the result of any precinct upon alleged irregularities, unless glaring and palpa- ble fraud is discovered. It seems to be settled that both parties will abide by the result of the count, If no fraud Is found.

Ar the approaching city election it is hoped that great care and judgment will be exercised in the selection of mayor and councilmen. Men should be chosen who are fully awake to the op- portunities of the city and who strive to achieve something in the way of pro- gress as we'll as prosperity. They should be men of ability and business sagacity, who feel that the prosperity of the city Is theIr owD prosperity; men who want the city 10 grow and develope into & metropolis of importance; men who would as carefully guard the welfare of the city ss they do their individual in- terests and be above all suspicion of jobbery. This is the class of men the people will demand for the government of our city and under such an admin stration it must flourish in spite of hard times.

THE telegraph states that 1t is quite probable that Conkling will be returned to the United States Senate by a coali- tion vote of the Democrats and Stalwsrts. There can certainly be no foundation for such @ rumor. Roscoe Conkling may still suffer from the never healing wounds of his humbled pride and utter foolish words sometimes, but there can exist no personal grievance sufficiently great to change his adherence to those principles whose advocacy has been the frame work of all his greatness. Just a little change in the attitude of Mir. Conkling during the campaign now ended-a word or two of support of the great Republican cause-might have made hIm millions of friends who will desplse him in the event of his accept ing the preferment suggested hs re- ward for his indifference. It so reminds one of thst other historical betrayal, over eighteen hundred years ago, where thirty pieces of silver was the considers ton.

THE New York World thinks it would he to the honor of the State of New York and credit to the people if party considerations could be laid aside and the legislature be induced to tender the United States Senatorsbip unanimously to Roscoe Conkling. When Republi- can is accorded such an unequivocal enforcement by the Democratic party Ii argues that they feel indebted to him for great services. something like those w,.icb gave q worldwide notoriety to R. medic, Arnold. If Roscoe Conkling feels at al hattered by the marked attention of the men for whom he has O. en expressed contempt, 1t exhibits s weakness in hi, character that roes bis uudoubted genius of its usefulness to his countrymen. If he has before posed as a turkey gCbbler, he has now given himself bodily to his foes as feast offering, around which they Will gather upon day of thanksgiving, and r ice over his betrayal of the coun- iry into their hands.

Tho melo.drama presented at the Grand
OperR.House last night has been senslbly i'm
proved since It's original showing az that
theatre year ago, Tho piece was then so In.
tensely English In It's local illusions that
many OF it's "points" were iucomprehensible
TO the average American audience. Tho mod
incRtions made In "a Hoop OF Gold" have
brought its story more closely homo to the
spectators.
The drama has also undergone the process
OF compression, and 10 decided advantage. II
has been stripped OF much of Its verblage; the
prosy speeches of several OF Its principal per-
sonages have been happily curtailed, ana It is
now much better piece Of literary work than
formerly. II moves accordingly with freer,
moro spirited and smoother action, and its
succession or sensational incidents arc rapidly
and effectively disclosed. The play is put up
on the stage with wealth OF appropriate and
beautiful scenery.
II is strong In pathos and comedy, and does
not fail 10 give satisfaction 10 the admirers OF
the class OF melo'drama or which II ia a pro.
nounced type. II was observed last night by
O housefull OF Interested and delighted audit
ore. IL Is presented by a capable company
well'balanced and strong all around, distinct
successes being scored by Miss Georgia II yler az

Commandment McCauIcy's Annual
RanOrt.

Colonel McCauley, commandant OF the Ma
rine Corpp, has submitted his annual report
to tho Secretary OF the Navy. Ho reports that
on October /, 1884, there were 1882 enlisted
men in the corps, $50 OF whom were on board
chips and 1,012 doing duty at the several
ehore stations. There have been 893 enlist
ments In tho past year, 308 discharges, 81
deaths and GIL assertions.
One major, two captains and one 1rBt Ifeu-
tenant on tho active list and one frst liouten-
ant on the retired, list have died.. Since tho
date OF tho last annual report i've second
lieutenants have been appointed TO I'LL vacap-
oies from the graduates OF the Naval Academy.
Colonel McCauley renews his recommends
lions that the number OF second lleutenants
may be increased to thirty; that Congress may
authorize an Increase OF appropriations Tor
moro privatee, the present number, 1,5OO,
being inadequate.
Tho report further states that the troops are
well quartered, except at Norfolk, Va, where
new barracks nro urgently required. AS there
are no quarters nt-Norfolk for tho officers, II Is
asked that Congress appropriate about $2f,-
Navy Yard for the accommodation OF tho Of
flccTs.
The report closes with q recommendation
mat some increase OF the higher grades of'om.
GERS should be made which would, at the same
time, not Increase the whole number OF ofll
Gers allowed by law, but would distribute them
to better advantage. Promotion in the
