WORDS are wanting to give ex- pression in terms sufficiently fore ible to convey to our readers the contempt We feel for r. II. Pixley. who, through his paper, the Argo- naut, published in San Francisco, has so dampably misrepresented the people of Arizona and New Mexico, and sent abroad as facts that which he knows to be tissue of falsehoods.. What have the people of Arizona done, Mr. Pix 9ey, that you should lie about us as you have2 Do you not remem- Der that when the Southern Pacific Railroad reached Tucson you were among the guests of that city, and treated with every possi- ble courtesy and consideration among the large number of dis tiHguished ladies and gentlemen who for the first time had come to the land of Aztecs from the Golden State? Your paper was redolent for many weeks after your visit with eulogistic enconiums on Ari- zona and the people of our Terri tory. What have we done since to incur your displeasure or merit your wrath? Little do We care. for We well know that your article was conceived in sin and brought forth in iniquity, and that when you wrote 1t you knew that the truth was not in you. From the press of the Southwest you have received much gratuitous adver- Using, far more than you deserve, for your lying effusions should have been regarded with con tempt The people of this Terri tory would rather die by the dag ger of your hatred than live under the infectious leprosy of your friendship.

IT is a significant fact that all the volunteer companies in the Territory which were ordered into active service have been retired except Company E, Clifton Guards, commanded by Capt. Ford. The first and only blood supposed to have been drawn from an Indian since the late out break is due to the militia. The government troops have been more ornamental than useful they have cut figure not credit able to the arm of the service they represent, and, although, in the words of Gen. Pope, re may

That Papoose.

The Prescott Miner is facetious ID writing of the Indian waif cap tured by the militia, in the ab- sence of government troops, and who is tenderly cared for by the kind people on the Gila. The little fellow intended no harm, and we are pleased to know that he is in kind and charitable hands. Our cotemporary. from the capital of the Territory, says:
 Not many days ago the news was heralded to an anxious world that our valiant Arizona militia and accompanying force of volunteers in pursuit of the marauding Apaches, had made good Indians of two Chiricahuas and had also captured young papoose of un known parentage and name. H. NJ. Van Arman, acting Chief Ex- ecutive of this Territory. already known as 'Arizona's War Govern or" in a dispatch to the departing troops had directed them to return information of dead Indians only; but when news of the information of successful capture of the little gimlet-eyed Indian kId was re- ceived, his heart relented, and 1t is said that he sentSa dispatch to the front saying, Suffer the little papoose to come unto me; and of such only should be our prisoners of war" The Governor is qnite proud of the new baby, and although he is in favor of adopt ing the most vigorous measures against the murderous renegades and has lent all the assistance in his power to contribute toward the speedy annihilation of Geronimo's band, he has shown to the little founding the kindly consideration of father. He is perfecting the organization of permanent com missary department to care for the wants of the papoose, and it is bruited on the streets that Pin head" Hughes will be placed at the head of said department, as that gentleman has had an extended experience in caring for worn out politicians and other protegcs Tn need of guardian, and no one is better fitted for the position. Al ready abundant supplies have been ordered, consisting of condensed milk, galvanized teaspoons, bolt of cloth, dozen cases of Mrs. Win slows Soothing syrup, self-rock- ing cradle and q copy of the song Baby Mine," and should Commis- sary Pinhead require more sup plies, they will be promptly fur nished until such a time us the Territorial baby shall cut a full set of teeth and become capable of chewing Uncle Sam's beefsteak on the San Carlos reservation. A petition is being circulated for signatures, to be presented to the next Legislature, to have the babe named Pache Van Arman, because of the first capture of the war being made by the Arizona sol ders during his temporary occu- pancy of the gubernatorial chair. God save the cub.

4 SPEAKER at the mass meeting in Tucson on the 18th remarked, in addressing the people: "When Crook was corraled in the Sierra Madres, the speaker had spoken to his muleteer, who told hlm the scouts had divided cartridges with the hostiles and were ready to fall on Crook. No young Apache can marry until he has a feather in hls head-dress, which signifies that he has killed a white mann

EDITORIAL ITEMS.

The Southern Pacific Company announce that they have not or dered reduction in fares in Ari zona, but intend to some day when the Legislature compels them to, we presume.
 Mr. Armstrong, a prominent member of the last Legislature from Maricopa, who has been wis iting his friends in the Old Do minion, writes from Culpepper that he will soon return to Ari- zona.
 More than five million dollars of foreign capital invested in Cliff ton and vicinity, and, through the policy of Gen. Crook, we cry aloud for security against a corporars guard of savages. How long shall such be?
 The people of Arizona should as aunit, demand the removal of Con. Crook. To his incompetency and scntimentalism is due the present Apache revolt and the appalling loss of life and property in which It has resulted.
 If the scouts recently enlisted by Gen. Crook should pass through some parts of Arizona they would wish themselves in h. Halifax or some other place. The climate of this country would not agree with them.
 Hon. G. H. Oury has returned to his home in Florence, from which be has been absent for the past four years, as Delegate in Congress. He says but little on the subject, but doubtless believes that he will be the next Executive of Arizona.
 The San Francisco Chronicle continues to criticise, in severe language, Crooks Indian policy and his failure to make a success fll campaign against the Apaches. In this it has rendered the people of Arizona good servlce and the fact should not be forgot ten by them.
 We regret our inability to sup ply extra copies of the CLARION as desired. Since the late excite ment we have been besicged with orders which we could not fill. since they did not reach us until after issue. In the future wo will provide, if every sheet of paper in the mill is utilized.
 The Silver City Enterprise de clines to rotract the charges here tofore made against Capt. Over ton. To fortify itself in the citadel of security more successfully, the Enterprise publishes the aflidavits of responsible parties who were with the officer at the time he de- ciined to make a record which would have done honor to him and his command.

as we were taught to believe in those days when we attended Sunday school in the sweet bye and bye, before Gen. Crook and the Apaches broke out. "Time at last sets all things even," and the decree has gone forth to the effect that the place which knew the savages shall know them no more forever.

ST. PATRICKS DAY.

st. Patrick's day passed off in this city
without any public demonstration.
High Mass was celebrated inst. James
church, and in the evening lecture
was delivered by Father Ward, Of Beloit,
on The future Of the Irish People. !"
The reverend gentleman, on commend
ing, said he was suffering from very
severe cold contracted on the morning
of the destruction Of his church in
Beloit by fire, and that he came here in
direct opposition to the wishes of his
people and of his physicians, but he did
not want to disappoint Father Cleary, as
he promised him to lecture several
months ago. He reviewed the history
of the Irish people, their sufferings and
prosecutions, and said he saw bright
future before them. He complimented
Parnell on his efforts to relieve the Irish
people, condemned the dynamiters, and
said he thought the next British Parlia-
ment would be pledged to grant home
rule to Ireland.

FRlGHTFUL FATE OF TWO HUN
DRIED GOLFERS.

BERLIN, March 1S.-A terrible disaste,
occurred in mining village of Camp
HOusen, near Saafabruecken, this morn
ing, by which it's believed that fully 200
miners lost their lives. An explosion
occurred in one ofthe large mines. The
miners had hardly began their days
work when fire-damp ignited and ex-
ploded, causing q heavy cave-in around
the shaft and entrance to mine. Over
200 men are known to have been in the
mine at the time. All efforts 10 reach
them have thus far been unsuccessful.
1t is feared that all have been either
crushed to death or asphyxiated. The
scenes in and around the mine are
heartrending. Wives, mothers and chill
dren of the imprisoned men focked
around the entrance, sobbing hysterical-
ly and imploring God to help them and
spare the lives of the dear ones entomb-
ed below.
