 THOSE who claim to be we'll in. formed on President Cleveland's pol.
 icy. state that in his forthcoming mes
 sage to Congress he will not recon
 mend any modification 10 the civil service law, and that on the silver
 question he will strongly advise the uiscontnuance of the coinaa e of the standard dollar. This latter recon. mendation will meet with vigorou, opposition from the representatives ol inc silver producing states and terri tories, and it is hinted that ir order to diSarm this antagonism the Presi- dent wlll suggest a scheme which will provide for the issue of United States silver certificates upon the d-posit of silver bullion in the Treasury. The plan proposed will probably resemble the Warner scheme that is, 10 issue silver certificates of various denonl- Jations resembling ordinary bunk notes, and any person depositing siI. yer bullion in the Trea,ury will re- ceive the market value of the metal m these silver certificates. These cert ficates will of course be negotiable and redeemable at any tim. by the U. s. Treasury in bullion at It's mar. ket price, thus the government and the depositors will elll either be gain CTS or losers, according to the huc'u. ations of the silver market. The plan is plausible one, bu, it will pre- sent many difficulties in commercial transactions, as the silver certificates will not always represent their face value. IL will require some consider ation before the people wlli accept this kind of money a> a substitute for the "dollars of our daddleS."

lr having been announced that a a Colonel Zuli'k was a candidate fur the Govtrnorship oi Arizona, the CHAMPION asked if any body could tell who and what lhe man was. The following answer comes from the Tombstone Record Epitaph:
 "Heisa a resident oi New Jersey and the president and a la:ge owner of some mines m SJnora, and was instru mental in swindliug the Mexican gov. ernnent out of several thousands oi dollars ! short lime ago. He has been in this city about iwenty-four hours on two or three different gcca- sions while on his way 10 and from Sonora. Now Brother Fay you have his history as far as we know H."
 This IS thoroughly satisfactory answer to the question.

siurdering Apaches.

The state of affairs in Southern Ar. izona and New M.xico is becoming alarming. A few days since Col. M. J. E,gan, commander of the militia at Clifton. received the following tel egram from General Crook:
 Latest information indicates tha, the hoSllles are returning from Mexl- co. Warn every one to guard their own horses and property, and if pos. sIble Nlll some of the Indians if they attempt 10 steal their stock.
 Col. Elgan immediately transmitted thlS message to Gov. Trille, which is a virtual acknowledgment that the military authorities are unable to ar- rest the depredations Of the red dew lis. Governor rrltle at once issued a general order giving Col. E ,gan com mand of all the militia forces at his disposal, and started himself for tn. scene of the trouble, teIegraphlng Governor R ,SS, of New Mexico, 10 meet hin at Alhuql:rurc for the pur. pose of co operating with him in sup. pressing the outbreak. By this time II Is hoped that some prompt acton has been taken to put an end to the atrocities that have lately tiken place and that the Territorial authorities will accomplish what the United States troops have signally fliIed tn do; that is, to protect the life and property of American citiz.ns.

WEEKLY CHAMPION.
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1885

Tins issue of the CHAMPION appears under the control of new manage ment, the undersigned having bought the property from Mir. A. E. Fay, who started the CHAMPION about two years ago and has since managed il with signal success, contributing much by his journalistic dbiluy and enter prise to the development of the in- tcrests of Flagstaff and the surround ing country.
 In keeping with a custom as old as journalism and in fairness to the patrons of the paper. it's future policy is briefly outlined:
 The CHAMPION will be independent in politics, dtaling iai,ly and fearless ly with all questions of public interest. Its pages will be devoted to all that can aid in the development oi our re- sources; the advancement of trade and the progress of education,
 It will record the facts and results of the current events of the day.
 Special attention will be given to Territorial news in noting the progress of our neighbors with a spiri: of fair. ness and imnartiality to all.
 Conscious of an honest purpose and confident of prosperous fu'ure for this section of the country-'he benefits of which we expect to share in common with our fellow residents --the new management asks to be sus- tained in its enGeavors to support the interests O! the community among which its lot has been cast.

To the Editor of the Globe:
Several members of the grand Jury in the
United States court at Fargo that annoyed
the land officials at Devils Lake desire to
have it stated that Messrs. Whipple and
Lord, in their long article in the GLOBE of
July 20, make several untrue statements in
reference to that jury. 1t is untrue. they
say. that a member of the body asserted in
open court, before the ease was touched,
that an indictment would be found. Ref
erence IS had to Col. Plummer, who. i'm
asking to be excused as ineligible, said that
he had been told that strong evidence
would be presented. The United States
district attorney did not state 10 the jury
that 1.-THE evidence was frivolous and con-
temptible.' The district attorney. Mr..
Murphy, did state that the officials had
acted badly and should be treated by the
Washington authorities. but the United
States criminal statutes were meager. and
he could find none to cover their Offense.
The jury did not ask the court TO appoint
another attorney. They simply reported a
summary of the evidence, with a statement
that they had voted a true bill, and the at
torneyS refused to draw it and submitted
the matter TO the action of the court. They
did not request the court TO forward the
AiHNeNs W W fRoAtiiiENoil. AfA NltOuGhA llitN
had done their duty in voting an
Indictment, and did not care what
either the attorneys or court would
do in the matter. The evidence. they allege
made out eX parte that the federal officials
there constituted a ring which, until Presi-
dent Cleveland was inaugurated, eXacted a
toll of - from each land claimant, and dis
regarded statutes and customs in regard 10
the matter. There was indication of mutu-
ality of interests in the leasing ofproperty
and location Of offices. None of the MEM
bers Of the jury seen knew that, as Lord
and Whipple charge, Lieutenant Creel
took a majority or any members of the
grand jury 10 a saloon and treated them.
The court, in diScharging the jury. ex-
pressed very warm appreciation of the
earnest purpose they had shown to stir up
wrong-doers, and they think they struck
tender spots. IL.

Young. Gen. Middleton and Rev. c. 3.
Pitblado were examined in rebuttal by the
crown. They detailed conversations held
with the prisoner after his capture, and teS-
tihed that they believed him sane. In his
conversations Hiel had said he hoped to
effect a treaty with the government 10 Sc
cure advantages for the haif-breedS. lie

Gals and then open negotiations WIN
the government. This failing, he would
try TO hold Middleton ct Bat0che until ne

Corporal PiggOtt dcposed as To hlel con-
duet while in custody. Both regarded MN
as sane. This concluded the evidence and
Fitzpatrick addressed the jury on behalf of
the prisoner. His speech hada good effect
with the iurv. lie described the disadVan-
tageous position in which the half-breeds
were placed by The conduct Of the govern
ment. and the manner in which Riel
had been driven into the rebellion.
lie also made a strong case in
favor of insanity. His appeal on behalf of
the supposedly insane prisoner was very af-
fecting. After lunch Riel was granted an
opportunity TO address the jury, which he
did in a long. rambling speech. At various
points he broke off in his speech to pray to
God ard the Virgin Mary. He claimed he
was sane and that he had a mission TO per-
form in establishing a constitutional gov
eminent in the Northwest He claimed that
ne was fulfilling that mission, even in
the prisoners dock. He described
the Dominion government and the
Northwest council as irresponsible bodies,
and said they therefore must be
insane if he was. In conclusion he said:
ooh, my God, jurors! In the name of
Jesus Christ, the only enc who can, save
and help me. For they are trying to tear
me in pieces. If you take the plea of
the defense that I'm not responsible for my
acts, acquit ne completely, since | have
been quaweling with irresponsible govern
mentS Of my own sort. IfyOu pronounce in
favor of the crown, which contends I'm re-
sponsible. acquit me all the same. You are
perfectly justiliable in declaring that, hav-
ing my reason and sound mind, l acted
reasonably and in sef-defense, while the
government, being irresponsible and
consequently insane cannot but have acted
madIy and wrong: and if high treason there
Is, it must be on their side The jury were
then addressed by Mr.. Robinson for the
crown. after which the magistrate pointed
ont TO the jury the law Of high treason, and
commenced to read over the evidence. He
will conclude tomorrow. and the jury is
expected to return verdict by tomorrow
night.

situation are of the opinion that spring
wheat in this county will fall below so per
cent. of an average yield. All other crops
are in fine condition, promising an album

ponding curtailment of wheat the situation
