recently telegraphed that the pioneer
settlers on the border counties of Ari-
zona have brought to light an old
law in several counties offering reward
of $3.50 each for Indian scalps. Under

order made by the county commission.

chise, Pima and Yanapai ceunties are
organizing in armed bodies for the pur-
pose of going on real, old fashioned
hunts, and they propose to bring back
the scs1ps and Obtain the reward. Since
the above information word comes
from Tombstone, the county seat
of Cochise county, that the reward in
that county has been increased to $500
for buck Indians scalp. The authori-
ties OF Pima and Yanapai counties have
also taken steps to increase the reward
to $500. and it is said Yuma, Apache and

tance beyond the second bridge, ard
work is well advanced on two side tracks
running parallel along the old grade
through West LaMonre, and connecting
with the main line where it turns to
cross the river. These side tracks are
being pushed with view to providing
yard room for the material rapidly ac-
cummulating at this point. At least
125 cars of railroad material have been
received here within week. On Satur.
day last two loaded trains arrived, an d
Wednesday night 25 cars drawn by two
engines came in, while long trains have
come daily since. Thursdays freigh
brought two boarding house cars, and
the men engaged on the work will
doubtless now dine along the grade.
Since Saturday an engine and construc.

Good Advice to RecaIcltrant Citizens
OF our Territory.
Mitchell Capital.
We publish in this weeks issue the
call of the territorial committee for
state convention at Huron on the 23d
inst; the call of the county committee
for county delegate convention and
the call of the township committee for
the usual primary to select delegates to
the latter. In connection with these an.
nouncements word to the wise." Be-
tween the chase for the almighty dollar
and certain failure to look at questions
in the right light, the citizens of Mitch
ell have neglected her interests for the
future, by disposition to hold aloof
from the political duties incumbent up
on every man. It Is the duty of the
people Of this sectioa to be represented
in every political gathering convened
by responsible citizens in this or
any part of the territory. Pri.
vate interest or public feelings should
not stand in the way of a protection of
the interest of the city and county in all
political gatherings. Granted that the
constitutional convention looked like a

been better for Mitchell to have been rep
resented at the race to see that her inter-
ests were not trampled on. Granted, as
alleged, that it was by party of hair
Drained self seekers, who had nothing
but public notoriety before their eyes;
SO much the more necessary for level
headed buiness men to b. present, as q
check upon this body which had it in
its power to injure the business inter-
ests of the future state should admis-
sion show itself possible this winter.
Now for the state convention. Granted,
| that it is as alleged by few, the work
of a set OF carpet-bagging political fos-
sils, who have settled upon Dakota,
not for magnificent agricultural
resources, but are sitting
around like vultures waiting
for the birth of the new state that they
may divide it piecemeal, and gorge
themselves with what they have had on
hand in producing. Is there Anything
more asinine in the world than to stub
bornly refuse to take part in these .po-
lltical gatherings on such an account !?
| If the allegations before made are
true, it is the duty of Dawson county to
go not only in delegate capacity. but
as mob to protect her interests from
such class of mon as are alleged to be
conducting the political affairs of Da-
kota. Dawson county should send her
| full complement Of delegates, and bust
ness men should learn thas the only
| way to prevent the politics OF the territory
| from falling into unsafe hands is TO en-

without jealousy. and with dstermiDa-
tion to protect the new business inter-
ests of the territory at all hazards. No
man can then use the politics OF the ter
ritory for self advancement.
