for time as prisoner of war in irons, and then returned here on the reservation. In five months he then left on a murdering rAid, and remained out about year and surrendered to Captain Has kell, at Camp Fucker. He was taken as a prisoner of war to San Carlos reservation, and in a short time agaln turned loose, and in 1881 he made another break, and with his braves made a bloody and destructive trail into the Sierra Madres, in Sonora, from which he was brought, with his band, two years ago by General Crook, and placed on the San Carlos reservation for a third time, where he was held with his band as prisoner of war until the recent outbreak, which has already proven one of the most bold and bloody of all the pre- vious raids. All human consider ation for this ferocious fend and his diabolical band has been ex- hausted, and nothing short of total exterminatIon will be tol- erated by the people of Arizona. If they are ever caught and taken alive to the reservation, there will be a sudden and certain termin- ation of the existence of this Apache fiend.

TIE Southwest Sentinel voices

THE Southwest Sentinel voices our sentiments in the following words: "The direct responsibility for every murder committed by these Indians is upon Gen. Crook. Forty eight hours before Geron- imo left the reservation the Lieu tenant in immediate charge of them telegraphed to Crook that they were preparing to leave, and asking for authority to put them under arrest This was peremp- torily refused. Then six hours be- fore they left the Lieutenant again telegraphed for such authority, stating that the Indians were on the point of departure, and immediate action was necessary. To this, after long and unnecessary delay, came the reply authorizing fore ible detention. As might have been expected, the authority came too late. Geronimo had been gone just three hours. Aside from this direct responsibility, there is this: Crock recently reported to Wash ington that these Indians were quiet and satisfied on the reserva- ton, and disposed to engage in agricultural and pastoral pursuits. The result shows that, in this, Crook misrepresented, for the signs of restlessness and dissatis- faction which the Chirlcahuas even then gave were unmis- takable, and must have been within the Generals knowledge, as they were undoubtedly within the knowledge of his SUI bordinates. Furthermore, when Crook brought Geronimo and his band from the Sierra Madres, he became their sponsor, and guaran- teed their future good conduct. Look at the matter from any standpoint, and the responsibility rests upon Crook; and in nine years of newspapers work on the frontier this is the first occasion on which we have really felt that his acts called for condemnation. We now say: D-n Crook and his policy, of which we are reaping the re- sultsr

A TELEGRAM from Deming to

A TELEGRAM from Deming to the Daily Tombstone speaks em- phatically on the subject which, of all others, is agitating the people of Arizona and New Mex leo. It says:
 So far as the troops arc con cerned, it Is the old story. The Indians will always be in the lead. They will reach the Sierra Madres and nave a grand war dance, and will then be invited by the great chief. Gen. Crook, to come back to the reservation and be good In dians until they get fattened up again, when they shall again be allowed to have little fun.
 That such will be the case we have no cause to doubt. Geroni- mo will capture Gen. Crook, and probably make terms with him, as be did in the Sierra Madres.

TIE Signal Service reports have demonstrated the fact that from 40 to 60 inches of rainfall during the year is as detrimental to the growth of vegetation as 15 inches or less, and that the State of California, with an average rain fall of A inches and Minnesota with an average of P inches, pro duce an average wheat crop of 16a to IT bushels to the acre. The rainfall at Tucson is 12I inches, this being an average taken be tween the year 1875 to and includ- ing 1880, and is more than falls in many parts of California.

Ex-U. S. SENATOR E. G. Ross

Ex-U. s. SENATOR D. G. Ross has been appointed Governor of New Mexico, and the press gener- ally of that Territory approve the appointment. Gov. Ross IS and for sometime has been a bona fide resident of the Territory, and it cannot be successfully charged against him that he made his resi- dence there with the view to polit- ical prefermert. He was a Re publican member of the Senate at the time of President Johnson's impeachment trial, and voted against the articles of impeach- ment For so doing he incurred the enmity of his party, and politically was a doomed man. Honest, conscientious and brave, he has stood by his political opin- ions through good and evil report, and as Chief Executive of our sister Territory he will make good his record.

THE Prescott Journal of the 18th

THE Prescott Journal of the 2Sth ult. conveys the information that the acts passed by the late Legis- lature will be given to the public. The Journal says: Acting Gov ernor Van Arman to-day received word from the publishers of the laws passed by the last Legislature that they have been shipped to the County Recorders of the differ ent counties for distribution. The promptness with which the work has been done is owing to the in defatigable efforts of the Secre- tary, as they will be given the public fully three months earlier than at any previous session."

 THE Tucson Tailings says edito- rially: Half a dozen companies of United States troops, with as many companies of scouts and militia, have been for a week in pursuit of a small band of savages -variously estimated at from 30 to 150 in number er-encumbered with women, children and spells. The white soldiers are operating among friends, in a country where every man they meet is an active ally. The savages are traversing a coun- try where every man they meet is a bitter foe, who thirsts for their life's b,ood. So far, thirty white men have been murdered. On the other hand, not a single In dian has been killed. General Kelton, in command of the Pre- sidio, at San Francisco, now offers five companies of infantry and four of artillery to take the field against these few score of savages. To make the farce complete, the Secretary of the Navy should of fer to send the Tallapoosa, the Dolphin and some boats down the Gila. It will be well for the American press to go a little slow, before it again criticizes the actions of the British troops in the Soudan or elsewhere"

THE Star of a recent date edi- torially tells what the marauding Apache has done and is still doing. We would most respect fully invite the attention of Briga- dier-General Crook, who has caused by his imbecile course the murder of so many of our citizens. Geronimo, the Apache cutthroat, has been captured three times and taken to the San Carlos reservation, first in 1877. He was captured in New Mexico and held

THE first appointment made in this Territory by the Cleveland administration was that of our friend Fred k. Kittle, of the Flor ence Enterprise, who has been appointed postmaster in the most beautiful village Tn the whole Territory. The appointment was well deserved and meets with gen. eral approval among those who know the sterling worth and busi- ness capacity of the appointee, who is young man of many ac- complishments, the head of a most interesting family and a typo who would be regarded as hrst-class in any Typographical establishment. We have known Mir. Kittle since he came to Flor ence as foreman in the Enterprise office, which position he has since filled, and at times has been the presiding genius in the sanctum of that enterprising and fearless sheet, when Tom Weeden was absent. We congratulate him on his appointment, and also the good people of Florence, who have secured the services of an efficient and courteous postmaster. If all the other appointments in Arizona are as worthy and we'll qualified as that of Mir. Kittle, we will indeed have cause for sincere congratulation.

FoR the death of every citizen who has been numbered with those who have swelled the roll of the unfortunates since the late Indian outbreak, Brigadier- Gen eral Crook is indirectly respon- sible. His temporizlng policy has encouraged the savages to renew and repeat the diabolical acts characteristic of the blood-thirsty Apaches. Only a few weeks since we cordially greeted friends from the Blue, and their coming was ever pleasing and pleasantly re- membered. Some of those who were welcome visitors in the sanc- tum of the CLARION have made their last call. The pets of the military commander have sum- moned them from time to eternity. General Crook has pampered and encouraged the fiends, and his pe- culiar pet. Geronimo, who cap tured him in the mountains of Mexico, is now bidding defiance to military authority, and with his marauding band marks his trail with blood. How long shall such be the easel Awake, arise or be for ever fallen! Proclaim the fact that Crook is a failure, and let the people of Arizona realize that their safety depends upon their own strong arms.

The go-as-you-please marriage
laws that have existed in Pennsyl-
vania from time immemorial will
soon be u thing of the past. On and
after the LIST day of next October,
the new law declares, mo person
shall be joined in marriage until a
license shall have been obtained for
that purpose, from the Clerk of the
Orphans Court in the county where
the marriage is performed. Minors
can obtain the necessary license by
presenting the written consent of
their parents or guardians to the
Clerk of the Court. The enactment
of this law will have marked and
beneficial effect upon West Virginia
as well as Pennsylvania society.
Many are the escapades and i'll ad-
viscd marriages that have come I'M
der our notice, that under the pres
ent law could not have occurred.
Many West Virginia parents heart
has ached because of the laxitv of
the Pennsylvania marriage law.
After a short time the strong arm of
justice will interpose and the good
that will result will be incalculable.

to have some body to lay the blame
on Our Republican friends just
now would like to raise the wind a
little if they knew just how to bring
it about. But Cleveland has not
yet enslaved the negroes, taken the
soldiers pensions from them and
given them to their disloyal enemies
nor any other of the vile acts he was
billed to do. Oh yes he has turned
some of the rascals out. Some of
them are honest enough to admit he
is doing well, but others think it
awful.

count of the intelligent masses, been

the Government, it becomes very
alarming to learn that we want some
of our own men to assist in the UNI

experience"
That is just why the people said,
"Turn the rascals out They didn't
like your methods.
We labored long and struggled
almost against hope for reform be-
cause we believed the Government
belonged to the people, was by the
people and for the people and not
simply to supply horde of partisan
politicians with office. The people
in their sovereignty endorsed the
idea and we want men to enforce it.
So the g. 0. p. must go and if you
expect anything else you belle your
charges of 20 years standing.
