---------------- GENERAL MILEs' STE ArEGY.

As far as actual fIhting is oncern ed there is no Indian news. The hostlles have been so hotly pursued by the Mexican and our own troop: that they have been forced to seek refuge in their old stronghold, the Sierra Madre mountains. There are no hostiles on Arizona soil.
 Gen. Miles has just consummated strategic, or rather diplomat ic move in their rear whichis wisely cllculat : ed to bring them to terms. During his recent visit to Fort Apache, he met ten chiefs of the White Mountain and Chiricahua Apaches, to the latter of which belong Geronimo and his band, and induced then to consent to removal of their tribes from this territory, to probably northwestern Texas.
 The we'll known strong attachment of the Indian to his family and rela- tiveS will undoubtedly impel Gero- nimo and his followers, when they hear of the removal, to sue for peace on any terms. This wilt, alter all, probably solve our present Ind ian difficulties, and its success may open the eyes of the eastern sentimentalists and form a precedent and argument in favor of the removal of all the Apaches-a consummation devou,ly to be wished.

It will be a most pleasant gathering, and those who go will never cease to be glad of it. The meeting together at the en- campment of so many old friends who have not seen each other for years will fill the heart of everyone with host of old time momorles and pleas ant recollections.

DIZZINESS AND DESTRUCTION,

From the Mexican line to Wyomin g Territory and from Kansas to Califor- mia come the most narrowing reports of the destruction of crops and herds by the unprecedented hot and dry weather which has prevailed in some sections for months past. The rivers have run dry, wells have given out, springs have failed. and in some places the people even are suffering for drink ing water.
 While such a state of affairs is to be greatly deplored, and we sympa- thize deeply with the losses and suffer ings of our neighbors, we cannot help pointing with pride and gratitude to the salubrlty of climate, the green fields, the we'll conditioned stock, and the general good health with which We are so snpremely blessed.

The Tombstone Epitaph continue, to find fault with Delegate B:an for not accomplishing anything. The fact is that Col. Bean has worked harder for the interests of the terri. tory than any other delegate it has had for years. It is also fact that the present congress has accomplished less Tn the matter of all kinds of legis- la'ion thar any other one for years. - Journal Miner And it is also a mat ter of fact that Coi. Bean has done more for Arizona, n the way of fully and fairly representing the wants of our people, than any delegate has done In the last twelve years, and the resu It of his labors will bear fruit for Ari- zona.

COUNTY DIVISION.

Yavapsi is now by far the largest county in Arizona, and there IS an evident desire on the part Of the Peo' pie of this section, irrespective o1 party affiliations, to have division oi the county. They say we are too far away from the present county seat for the convenient transaction Of nm portant legal buGiness; that, though covering an immense area of country we are only on the outside edge oi the center of population, and there fore do not have that voice in direct ing county affairs which our peculiar position demands; that our interests are entirely distinct from those ot the southwestern portion, and that to conserve those interests properly we need local self government.
 This matter, though talked of for several years past, IS only in embryo at present, no two persons apparently agreeing exactly upon the boundary lines, and we alludc to it only a' the expression of a general desire for se- gregation, and hope that meeting may be called by the representative citizens of this section, at which all may have an opportunity of expressing their opinions, and a definite conclu- sion be arrived at.

A MAN might with as much reason ask you for your pocket book without returning consideration, as to ask a newspaper to lend its columns to his advancement without paying a just compensation therefor. Merchants pay for their advertisements, why should politicians and other ambitious men not be required to pay news papers for advertising them1 It is often the most undeserving who crave the most notoriety, and they as a general rule expect to "dead head" every newspaper they have anything to do @lth. Type setting, paper and ink cost money, but the class ri men we refer to don't appear to thlnk so -lucson Star.

There is something radically wrong in the delivery of mails at this point.

MANNING still adheres to the polio , of keeping cash balance of nearly five hundred millions in the Treasury, although he has the option of calling Tn over SI5o, ,ooo, coo three per cents. It IS quite evident that the Secretary of the Treasury thinks that it is wiser to please the national banks than the people. He will probably entertain a different opinion in 1888.
