The Tucson Star of the 25th inst, has discovered from the books of the Treasury Department that the sup port of the Indians from 1869 to 1881 has cost tue government Sl05,o82, s97. Out of this sum the Greek orphan fund" of 1882 and Greek annuity which aggregated upwards of Sl 600, GOO was paid, and $20o, ,oo0 interest on indebtedness to Indians, besides prin- cipal to eastern Miames, also Sac and Fox Indian annuities, and to WInne- bagoes in Wisconsin. The annual ap. propriation for the support of Indian schools is also added to the sum set forth in the Star. There are 265, ,562 Indians, exclusive of those in Alaska, aud according to the Star in sixteen years have cost the government Sl05,- 082, ,307, a good round sum, and yet the army numbering only 25,000 men Ca little more than tenth of thenum- Der of Indians) cost the government (from 1869 to 1884, inclusive) S2a4, z 9I7,693 more than for the support of the Indians during that time, which startled the Star at it's enormity.
 In this connection it is worthy of remark that the Indian appropriation by Congress is cut up into about 260 separate and distinct appropriations, each one of which must be used as specially provided, and for no other purpose, although it may happen that in.one place there is an abundance, while in another want and famine may prevail The cost of each Indian for tho sixteen years was only s3ss or $22.37 per year, while the appropria- tions for tho army amounted to SIG, GOO per man for the sixteen years, or Si 900 per year. The War Depart ment with it's great excess of money over the Indian Department, with all its bureaus, has only about sixty differ ent appropriations, and while Con gress is lavish in support of the army the Star fails 10 see that the sum voted annually 10 the War Depart ment in excess of what should be re quired for its maintenance would more than Keep tho Indians, as now supported, without a dollar more De. ing taken from tue Treasury. This discrepancy in the appropriations is accounted for by the fact that the rep resentatiyes of the army beseige the halls of Congress, and like tho daugh' ter of the horse-leech, their constant
 cry is give, give.

The percentage Of cattle losses on western ranges is not larger than in the States. This statement, although 1t may seem little fshy to eastern people, is susceptible of the clearest proof The natural loss on eastern cattle, tho year round, will not fall short of four or five per cent, while it is not uncommon for the loss on range cattle to fall far below these figures, The present year, for instance, the loss on acciimated range cattle will not exceed one per cent oeorro (N, MI Ballion.

The Continuation Of he Ore Chimney
FOumd In the Parker Lower Level.
The recent strike in the Parker is
now generally believed to be the con-
tinuation Of the old ore. chimney, as it
has every appearance of being the
same character and grade of ore as
that for which the mine is celebrated.
Ore was struck in three places, and
the vein found to carry from six inch .
to one foot of solid galena, besides
the usual vein matter peculiar to the
Parker. This strike was not alto
gether unexpected, rs the vein had
unxccountably been lost; but it never.
thesess infuses new hope in the breast
If every mine-owncr in this region,
because of the great depth of the ore
bearing vein. An upraise is being
made to connect with drift in the
ore, and as this connection is made,
the value of the find will be ascer-
tanned.

of horses. The animals proved so
wild that the owners could only cor
raj two head in five days. The Hal

as they desired animals that they could
use once or twice year, anyway.
They had hard trip of it, as their
horses were worn out, and were ten
days getting back across the 100 mile
desert adjacent to the Great Salt
Lake. For three days they ate only
one pound of crackers and can of
jelly. They would camp at sunrise,
and start out about six in the evening,
travelling only at night. The horses
gave out when about IS miles from

aligh,ing, attempted to lay hold OF
the gun, he resisted. As Mr.. McMas-
tiers ran from the buggy. Mr.. West
discharged one shot into the hill, "just
for fun" and then another, also "for
fam" He then picked up Mr.. Harp
er's hat, laid it on rock, Gained the
horses, and went on his hunt.
1t would have been really too bad
if Mr.. Harper had been armed, and,
just to carry out the joke, had shot
Mr.. West dead in the road.
However, as nobody was seriously
hurt, the community is to he congrat-
ulated upon the wind up Of the affair,
Mr.. West will have hearing in
the Probate Court at 10 O'Clock to-
morrow morning, when he will have
an opportunity of explaining all about

rest the man at that time because they
had no legal authority to do SO.
