-tioTFRNoR TR1rLE in his annual
 report on the condition eff the
 Territory has said some very true and sensible things. He places
 the population at 8O,000 and the
 assessed valuation at $25, 1000, 900 In speaking of the Indian question
 he refers vigorously to what he calls "Meddlesome cranks and
 Eastern sentimentalists who be- lieve in the mythical noble red
 men of Cooper's novels" The ac
 cepted conclusion now is, he says,
 that the Indians of the Far West are either diseased, filthy, non
 producing vagabonds, or cruel, treacherous beasts of prey in hu
 man form. The Governor says the people of the Territory de- msnd protection, and after refer ing to the fact that the Apaches are still on the warpath, he recon
 mends the removal of the trouble some tribes from the San Carlos Reservation to the Indian Terri tory, or some other suitable place. If this plan is not acceptable to Congress, it is recommended that the boundaries of the reservation
 be narrowed, and the Indians dis armed and placed under military surveillance. The opinion is ex- pressed that the last outbreak
 would not have occurred had the reservation been under the control of Gen. Crook. In conclusion the Governor points to the impor- tance of unrestricted trade with Mexico and strongly urges the consummation of a reciprocity. The progress of the Territory has, nevertheless, been a source of qualification. The estimated value of the metals exported by the ex- press companies during the year ending Dec. 31, 1881, wast Silver and gold, S7,O56,S79; copper, S2,- 750,000. The yield of this year, it is believed, will fully equal that of last. Cattle-raising is assuming an importance second only to min iug among the industries of the Territory. and it is estimated that there were 431,479 head of cattle in the Territory at the close of last year. It is believed that there has been a large increase this year. An appropriation for sinking ar tesian wells is recommended with a view to the reclamation of sterile lands. the reservoirs to be placed in positions to be determined by a hydographic survey.

A GENTLEMAN who is in a posi- tion to know says that in his con- ing message to Congress President Cleveland will recommend radical changes in the policy of the Gov ernment in purchasing and issuing supplies to the Indians, and that almost every feature of the pres ent system is disapproved. The authority to purchase will be transferred to the military, to be made in the best markets at the lowest prices, and open to all con petitors. Without being nasty, we would gently suggest, if there be any doubt about some change being acceptable, that the Presi- dent cast his eye over few of the papers published near the recent Apache outrages.

Nor very long since Germany and Spain were at swords points as to who should have the Caro- line Islands in the Pacific ocean. Much bad language was used, and matters looked sqnally for while, but the affair has now been re- ferred to the Pope for arbitration. This Is as 1t should be, as he has a staff of unequalled capacity and casuitical acuteness, and he is himself fortunately "out of pol itics," as his predecessors have not been for many hundred years.

TIE special delivery of letters about which SO much ado has been made, looks very much as if it was doomed to failure. In large towns people depend on the telegraph when in a hurry, and Tn small com munities, time is a drug on the market. The eastern people were bowling for it; now, that they have got it, they don't want it.

Attica Ledger.


With Hendricks under the heel of the admin
istration, and in position that he cannot be a
candidate for senator two years hence, the
conclusion ought to be that Mcdonald should be
rendered that honor one which he would fill as
acceptably and to as much credit to the State as
any other Democrat in it. AT this juncture,
however some of the small fry, some of the
very small fry, are coming forward, and Gov.
Gray and no less distinguished person than
William III. English as surely posing as
candidates as though they had been formally
announced. Governor Gray proclaimed himself
a candidate when he gave encouragement to the
Legislature to so squander time as to compel an
extra session. He was more anxious to
make himself ''solid" with the hold-over sena-
tors, and with such representatives as may be
reelected, than to save the State the $50, 900
necessary to pay for extra and needless
sion.
English published his announcement as candi-
date on the occasion of the reelection of Senator
Voorhees,, when he rendered him reception and
banquet, and eulogized him as 'Indana's great
hearted, big Drained SENATOR" bit of rodomon-

remarked in this connection that Mr. English
never goes to an expense without expecting re-
turns, and 1t is quite certain that he would not
have squandered dollars in banquet without
having some object in view.
