THE CYCLONE.

.
Vritten By Mrs. Helen Lavcll for the WrsrrR
CLONE.
There's storm looming up,
There's cloud in the sky;
There's an omniOus sound
Which attracts every eye.
With surprise and terror,
We hear people say:
The CYCLONE is coming,
G.t out OF the way.
The cloud is incre asing.
'Tis gathering force
To remove every object
Impeding its course,
But bark there's sound,
Like the roll Of drum;
Nicodemns is booming,
The CYCLONE has come.
It gathers good tiding
- For~all of mankind,
And bears them away
On the winga Of the wind;
Willie abuse, )elafider,s
! D0ubt.ahd dismaT
Are~caught in, the whirlwind
And scattered away.f4 4
Blow on iiittle tempest,
Continue to blow.
To all parts Of the Nation,
Let every man know,
In this beauttfulsland
There's abundance of room.
Where men of all stations
May find them home
For the old and the young,
The great and the small.
In this beautiful land
There are blessi ngs for all,
Which loving Creator
With a bonntifuI hand,
Has scattered them broadcast
All over the land.
In his goodness and mercy,
Wether sunshine or showers
Has dotted the hilslopes :
With beautiful flowers
From the vast rolling prairiee,
The children OF toll
May reap a reward
In the fruits Of the soil.
From morning It'll evening,
The birds gaily sing
Til the hills with
Re-echoing melody rings.
All nature rejoicing
Invites rs to come,
And make in this beautiful
a. Country homo.
Then blow; little CYCLONE,
Continue to blow,
In every direction,
Let every man know,
Though much has been said
The half Is not told,
There's peace and contentment
ThaL's better than gold.

A CHEAT NsarAKR

The senate has repealed the Pre-enp ton, timber culture and desert land laws. and when the house concurs ID the trivial ammendments made. the president will append his signature. The wisdom and benefits of these laws were net questioned, and their repeal was brought about upon the sole ground that fraud was perpeIa,ed under their provisions It was no, even considered that other safeguards might be thrown about the laws 10 mce, the character of frauds. Upon this ground there is hardly law upon the statutes that should not be repealed, for technicalities is the worst enemy of justice in the courts of the present day. In Arizona the repeal of the desert land law IS harmful to the interests of the government. 1.-the pre- visions of the law were enforced, not single fraud could be perpetrated and an occasional tract of land would be re- claimed and made productive. The ex- pense of developing water is too great in this territory to be proftably utilized on so small scale as ahomestead entry would secure, and many people who would net hesitate to expend quite large sums in providing water for s tract of land from subsequent sales of which he might hope to be reimbursed, and will not touch q mere fragment of a single farm. So far as Arizona is concerned, we think the repeal of the deser. land act is a mistake Citizen.

Mir.

If the editor of the Enterprise had been possessed Of a sufficient amount of knowledge tc have maintained 'idisoIeet silence" this controversy" which he speaks of, would. perhaps no. have occurred. As for slandering NIT. Weedin or indulging in any personal abuse of him whatever, as he charges, readers of the JOURNAL MINER will bear us ont in the assertion to the contrary.

The Voice of Arizona, a paper pub ished at Casa Grande, in Pinal county, has the following in reference te the suit against Thos. F. Weedin:
 Clark Churchill brings suit in behalf of the Territory of Arizsna against Weed in a member of the r3th Legislator. weedin stands charged as accepting a S,, bribe the man who figures in the spectacle as briber is Marion of the Courier. Since the announcement ct the sui, the Attorney General has receiv- ed abuse from the two principles affect ed by the charges preferred The mere abuse of law officer will not stand with the people as an exoneration of the charges. Churchill as an officer of the Territory is expected to do his duty. If he has grounds and good proof fer his suit, his plainduty is to proceed tear lessly in the prosecution If he can- no. prove his charges. then weedin will stand exonerased. It is becoming of all fearless journals to encourage any officer of the Territery to uncover wrong doing and give to the public thorough facts. Mir. Churchill should not be brow beaten or bullied by any random abuse. hurled at him but should proceed and make good his charges. The press oi the territory will be with him if he gives proof of his sincerity and ground ef acton We don't approve of the friends of mur' derer intimidating the attorney proseeu- ting a murderer, nor would we sanction the clogging of the law by any dubioui means.

 Side by side with fish and snake stories has the cyclone yarn taken . pos i,ion to enrich the domain of fiction.

No one claiming the wAif, the farmer kept him and cared fer him. Las, summer the farmer took the boy with him into Mississippi, and another tornado took the child, and he has never been heard of s,nce.

A correspondent of the Tucson Cin- zen speaking of the Indian outbreak very correctly says: These Indians are band of robbers and assassins; it is as strictly legal, and much more necessary for the territory to offer reward sf $sso per head for their capture or killing. as to offer it for the mail robbers of Rumble Bee, which was done in less than three days after the robbery. Let the territory offer reward of $s5o for each Indian captured or killed, and the county supervisors of each county a similar additional sum for each Indian killed or captured in their respective counties and the hills will speedily be alive with small scouting parties ef miners. ranchersand men prospecting for hos,.les in Indian fashion, to ambus- cadc and surprise them. and before the county oE territory has many heads to pay for. she Indians will go where their heads will feel safer, fer these wolves are as cowardly as they are murderous. The almighty dollar will be more potent than |. $. guns in dealing with such vermin.
