The agony over the convention loca-
ton is by no means over. The commit
tee are taking evidence and will no
doubt decide on holding it where it will
do their candidates the most good. The
committee are, no doubt, quite evenly
balanced in their preferences, hence this
delay. Like the criminal before the
court, they want to hear the evidence
before they decide.

 SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. IS.-It now transpires that the acquiescence of the Chinese companies in the present state of affairs has been assumed in order to cover their plans. Consul Bee has been busy for weeks preparing defence of his clients and attack on their opponents. The result of the Consul's literary labors is pamphlet of some seventy-six pages, which has just left the press. The work is intended for circulation in the east, and the utmost secrecy has been observed in its preparation. Many thousands of copies have been printed, the intention being to flood the east with the pam phlets before their fallacious arguments could be met and denounced by counter publications here.

The Phenix Gazette, in its reference to the Tres Alamos land grant, very ungen- erously remarks that our opposition to this fraud comes from an interest the brother of the proprietor of the EPITAPH has in the premises. This is false, be- side being unjust. When J. A. Reavis was endeavoring to float grant of simi- lar character over the fertile land, washed by the Salt river, on which had settled the hardy pioneers of Maricopa county, the proprietor of this paper was then in similar position on the Tombstone Re. publican, and if our memory serves us rightly, the Gazette asked and obtained assistance from that journal to expose to the world the gigantic fraud this man Reavis was then endeavoring to per petrate upon the settlers of Maricopa county. The EPITAPH is endeavorine now, and shall at all times, endeavor to maintain the rights of honest ranchers as against an unholy gang of land grab. bers, whose only interest in tie country consists in what they can obtain by blackmail. The Tres Alamos grant is as great fraud as was that of Reavis; hence our opposition to the scheme.

A Cattle Case.

WASHINGTON, February I8.-The case of the United States vs. R. b. Hunter late partner of John Chisholm, of Arizona and of St. Louis, one of the largest cattle men in the west, came up in the supreme court of the district of Columbia, to-day. The case excites great interest. It is an action brought in the name of the U. s. government, upon information furnished by Luther Pike, of Kansas, in regard to leasing of lands for grazing in the Cherokee strip, Indian territory. The case involves the right of cattlemen to lease from the h. dians, without the approval of congress or other federal authority. The case will probably be taken to the supreme court of the United States.

John B. Cough, the greatest temper ance orator that the world has ever pro- .duced, is dead. MT. Cough was a : tive of the State of Maine, and in his young days, was engaged in the hotel business in Portland, he being then very much addicted to drink, but when the temperance movement was inaugurated in that state, he at once became one of its staunchest supporters, and from that time until he ceased to breath, was true to its principles. Mir. Cough will be as sincerely mourned as any man of the present century. A noble life spent in behalf of struggling humanity. Wher earth's green sod shall have covered the form of Cough, it will have enwrapt with. in it's cold embrace as grand man as ever trod its surface.

Three fourths of our people come from the Pacific slope and parents woull thus frequently be saved the cost of purchasing new books; the California geography contains maps and special in formation in regard to this coast, which is not found in eastern editions and lastly, the state of California IS now printing and publishing school books at cost which b ,oks would be obtained for use here, at considerable saving over our present prices.

An important opinion of Judge Barnes will be found in another column, regard ing the advlsability of issuing subpGnas for the Apaches now in the hands of the military, or supposed to be. The situa- ton just now, is very delicate one. It looks as ifdawn were breaking, after our weary midnight of bloody outrages. Should the military authorities show any disposition to temporize or make terms with these murderers, it will then be soon enough for the people of Arizona 10 take some steps to assert their rights. Let us not be too nasty.

The San Carlos reservation in Arizona --the home of the 6endish Apache-oc- cupies two and one half million acres of the best grazing and agricultural lands in the territory. It costs the government upwards of ST 100000 annually to clothe, feed and fight the occupants of this vast tract of available land. Does it not seem as though something should be done by the government to put a stop to this fearful sacrifice of life and property? Every honest man in our broad territory will answer yes to this question.

That the proposi- ton to remove such soldiers, whose character is irr-proachable, and to ap- point persons who have rendered no such service, is violation of the spirit of the law and of the gratitude which our people and government owe to tie defenders of our constitutional liberty and integrity in government.
