The Courier devo,es nearly two columns of its space this morning to Attorney General Churchill, from which il would appear that Mir. C. owns every republican paper in the territory.
 Arizona, in point of the development of its natural resources, IS practically a new and almost unknown country. The first attraction followed the discovery of the rich mines, and an occasional tract of fWored soil was cultivated in 6esul- tory manner, bu, it was not until the railroad pushed its way through the ter ritory that the flood of people came. They were attracted by the glittering possibilities of new country and ems braced the frs, promising opportunity to engage in profitable enterprise. Like California of the earlier days. the barren and desolate looking lands were oonsid- cred of no agricultural value, and that industry sadly neglected. save along some of cur favorIng water courses. The time has now arrived when the experi- ment of creating permanent homes IS being thought of. The waters of the Gila, Salt and San Pedro rivers arc already utilized to great extent for irrigation and fertile farm and prolific orchards have taken the place of mes qui, brush and cactus. As the valley lands become absorbed by settlers other means fer irrigation are being sought and we find the experimental stage Of our developments full of theory ard withou; much practical knowledge. If artesian water can be procured in our broad valleys there is no limit 10 the prosperity of the future. We know that water in abundance exists beneath the soil, but the experiment of bringing it 10 the suI- face is ye, untried. We believe that all the semi tropical fruits that flourish n southern California will grow equally well in Arizona but the experiment has no, been made These are matters of public concern and they should De encouraged and assisted by the several counties and the territorial and general government Not only should artesian wells De sunk, bu, there should be gov ernmen;al survey Of the water sheds and and the advantageous points for the storage of water fo, artificial irrigation. When these matters are successfully demonstrated there will be no time lost in their utilization Tn the development our natural resources, and our terrritory will very soon present attractions even superior 10 those of southern California Citizen.

As to wha, will be done with the cut-;hro,is after they have been taken In hand ix question to be determined after NC have caught them. On ;hIs point it would be well for the press 'o remain silent, as there are means by which she hostilcs can and will learn ihc feelings of an outraged people. Le; Gen.

l. IS With regret that this paper IS called upon to announce the death of Captain Emmett Crawford one of the bravest men in the army and one of best Indian fighters under General Crook. The circumstances under which this gallant officer were killed are particularly sad Having met and defeated the hostile Indians and then to have his command attacked by the troops of an ally through mistake, and to receive his his death wound, while attempting to make this friendly force understand their mistake is peculiarly sad. The death of Captain Crawford will be deeply mourned not only by his personal friends and associates, but by all who have read of his gallant and brave deeds Tn pursuit Of the relentless foe of Arizona and New Mexico.

GESERAL CsOOKD r0LsCH.

The traduoers of General Crock will nov probably begin to trim sails 90 as to join the throng who will sing his praises when the last of the hostile Indians arc either killed or captured. The persev- eranoe and patience with which he has conducted tho campaign against the hostile Indians should command the admiration of all The troops have b~en in constant pursui: when the attempt seemed almost hopeless, and the dis advantages seemed so grea, that less determined man would have given up in despair. General Crook however knew the character of his foe and he knew thai by unceasing pursuit and by giving the enemy no chance of rest they must sooner or later be compelled to give up. During all these months of patient pur- suit when the tide of war seemed agains: him General Crook vas the subject of the most severe and unjust criticism on the part of portion of the press and people of this territory. To all of this however he pad no attention but con- tinued under all the disadvantages imaginable 50 harass the enemy, and drive them from place to place and while unsuccessful in forcing them to 6gh, he kep, them on the constant march. The beginning of the end IS now in sight. Captain Crawford has engaged the enemy and captured a large portion of their stock and although losing his life, his Lieutenant, Maus, holds one of their chiefs and members of Geronimo's family as hostages.
 That General Crook has done all that was possible for any man 10 do has been apparent all the time 10 all reasonable thinking men. That his policy was the only correct one will be fully demon strated sooner or later.

Tbe Wonderful silieiaea Forest is

The following article regarding the famous Chaloedony Park of Arizona is from the pen of a gentleman who has recently visited il and is deeply impressed with its beauty. The article will be read with additional interest from the fact that number of San Joseans, among them Wm. Adams, IT,, and $. l.

 CHALCEDoNY PARK.
 Chalcedony Park, outside of its man. moth deposits of jasperized wood, fossils and petriica,ions, has an antique history more strange than that of any other place in the world. There is legend, handed down to the present tribe of Navajo Indians, that in ages past where thIs unparailed freak of nature now exists, there was thrifty garden of flowers shaded by mammoth forest, the openings being of productive spots, covered with the richest soil on which the aborigines of Aztec origin raised, meath the balmy cline of a tropical sun, all the fruits, cereals, vegetables, etc, produceable under such favorable condi- tons. Then the Great Spirit, whocontrols the gods Of war turned loose his thunder bolls and lightning flashes, and this productive, tropical country was deluged with fire, the very fastening of its foundation were torn asunder and by a convulsion of nature, too sublime and terrible in its infinite power to describe, was changed into its present state Of historic grandeur. Thousands of acres of forest, of yerdant plain and cultivated fields, as well as villages with their people, were submerged and crushed and tossed about and changed as only the theoretical powers of Hades if unlocked on earth might generate. This paradise now lost, became
 AN ANGRY SEA OF MELTING ROCKS; The earth itself changed into digested volcanic food, the ar sulphur bath, the very skies were filled with tufa, lava obsidium and volcanic ash, and this Gar den of Eden became an example of the Omnipotent's awful power. The rem nants of this enlightened race who were lucky enough 10 be stationed outside this the greatest crater of the world, and who were spared, were also changed from civilized, thrifty people, to band of seni-barbarous Indians, but among them there still remained few descend ents O: that once wonderful people who erected cities, built canals, cultivated the soil and prospered as only people of intelligence such as was possible during their age could do. This may have been
