The mos, important case yet suomi;- ted to His Honor Chief Justice Shielts for decision, and one of the most inlri- cate and important ever submitted in this territory, has been argued in the district court yesterday and to-day.
 The Atlantic and Pacific railroad claims certain exemptions from taxation owing to the nature of their charter and 1t is not beng allowed by the supervisors of the counties agains, which suit has been brought. The company seeks to settle it in court. A suit somewhat similar was recently decided by the Supreme court of California in favor of the Soutt- err Paciic.-Fhe- -eeets.au of Judge Shields will however be of little conse- quence so far as the final settlement of the case is concerned, as there is no douht bu, it will be carried to the high est tribunal of the land for final adjudi- cation. Judge Shields decision will therefore be one of great importance to himself, and the law points and decisions which have bearing en the case will no doubt receive his careful considera- tion and closest study, which will require the lapse of considerable time to accomplish.

REJECTED BH THE nENATE.

The telegraph, last evening brought .,e-i.-.::urmatius she: .he senate had refused to confirm the nomination Of J.C. Shields, as chief justice of Arizona. The action of the senate in this matter is to be regretted. The IoURNAL-MISER has taken the position that the president exceeded his authority and violated the law ,n hls removal of the United States judges Of this territory. The judiciary
 committee of the senate, which contains some of the abless jurists in the country, sustained ihls view, but the announce
 men, has heretofore been made that on account oi precedents to the contrary, the right Of the president to remove would not be contested. While we have considered ;hc p:eoedents not sufficient grounds .o allow the law 10 be over- ridden, and have contended that all the appointees should be rejected. since the senate has confirmed the nomination of Associate Justice Barnes, we can see nc reason for their action in rejecting this nomination. Judge Shields is an ener- getic, conscientious and industrious official who, we believe, discharges his duty faithfully and impartially. While he IS 2 comparatively young man to fill the position, he has given general satis- faction and the people are as loss to know, in the face of the recent conhrma- ton of Judge Barnes. why he should be rejected.

The action of General Niles, in recommending the revokal of the order for the transfer of thr First Infantry from Arizona to C.. r.,fornia, July rsi, meets with a most 'aeariy approval from the citizens ot northern Arizona A present, the only troops stationed at whippie b tracks, is a company of this regimen'.. While there is no particular cause for immediate alarm, ii IS matter of wisdom not only to retain the troops al presen, stationed in northern Arizona bu, the number should be materially increased. Itis wel-known fact that the recent troubles among the wallspais in which five or six of the tribe, were killed and the interference on the part of the whites to prevent them from kill ing others has caused serious dissatisfac- ton and open threats from them. The tribe numbers Soo bucks, and while all trouble may be averted it is known tha; they are providing themselves with arms and ammunition.
 A cen.lenan jus, arrived from Apache county says that the Indians on the reservation are becoming restless and dissatisfied and settlers living near there who can watch more closely their move menis are somewhat alarmed. The Nayaioes have for months had griev- ances against the settlers who they claim are encroaching on their reservation. In case of trouble arising this tribe could but s.ooo well armed and equipped warriors in the field.
 While it is possible that immediate trouble may not arise from any of these sources, the well-known treachery Of the Indian character and the fact that eften the slightest circumstance may cause grave consequences they are at present more or less of menace to our people. The Indians are well posted on the sit> uaiion and while comparatively few troops are stationed in this section are more likely 10 be easily induced to cause trouble than if better protection were afforded by the presence of larger number of troops. Instead of with drawing any troops from this territory, ,he government should send an addi- tional number into the territory. Gen. Niles needs all at present in the field, ard there are numerous posts through oa: the country, where the troops are growing fai and lazy through inactivity tccna ~il;c:, they migh: be spared ,e this territory where their presence alone would have good effect. even if they should never be required Tor scti 'e service.
