Mr.. HODGES, the new Mayor of Bal
timore, evidently knows what he was
elected for. In his inaugural speech a
few days ago he said he would conduct
his office on business principles. At the
proper time all necessary reforms may
be made. Though elected as q Demo-
crat, he said that he shall strictly OBJ
serve the rule that public Office is pub
lie trust, to be used for the public good,
but 1t must be distinctly understood
"that it is my settled belief that the vot-
ers of successful political party, when
honest and capable and possessing the
confidence of their fellow citizens, de-
serve to have seats at the government
table. In order that there may be no
room for understanding or disappoint-
ment, desire to announce that this rule
will govern me in making appointments
to public office"

 ARlxoNA,s LAST norE GONE.

The special Congressional commit tee on Indian affairs, Of which Vim s. Holman is chairman, has been at San Carlos during the past week investi. gating affairs there, and have returned East. The members of tue committee were reticent as to the result of their labors, but enough was slearned during their brief stay here to remove any hope Arizona may have had of any benefits to result from their visit. They will not recommend the removal of the Apaches from tho reservation, nor will they recommend any change in the military command of this dts trlct.
 Of all the dark days that Arizona has seen, she has never been confront ed with future so utterly hopeless as tue one now presented, as the report made by this committee will unques- tionably be accepted as final. The machine-made, stereoiyped document, setting forth that the "Indisns on the San Carlos reservation are contented aud happy, are rapidly advancing in the arts of civilization, and their only sorrow the naughtiness of Geronimo their only want, more bibles and hymn books" will in due time be offered and approved.
