Joseph Morris, the young man stabbed
in the head on the evening Of April 29th,
died a short time before six o'clock yester,
day morning, at his home at Thirty-eighth
and Jacob streets. Death was the direct
result Of the wound received in Hur-
ley s saloon, in the scuttle in which the de-
ceased and some or all Of the parties whose
arrest was chronicled yesterday morning,
we're engaged, and the extreme probability
of this end has all along been apparent to
those conversant with the facts in the case,
and the nature OF the wound. 1t will be a
serious affair for some of the parties accus-
ed and now under arrest, before it is final
ly settled to the satisfaction of the law.
An inquest was held last evening at the
Office Of Coroner Schultz, before jury OF
twelve men, quite large number of the
residents of that section being present to
listen to the evidence. The evidence ad-

 reached in the conviction of Dave Walk ar, the notorious chief of the bad gang tbat terrorized Christian county and murdered men and whipped women at their own sweet will. For time they dehsd arrest and threatened chGstlse- men. and death oo any one daring to raise hand or voice against them, but the Edens-Gireen murder was the cul- minstion of their misdeeds and the one that led to the immediate downfall of the perpetrators. Almost l3 months have elapsed from the arrest of the gang to the conviction of the chief, and during that time the most determined efforts wers made by friends to secure the re. lease Of she doomed men. All the technicalities and quibbles known.to tbe law were resorted to to defeat the ends of justice, but the mills ground on just the same. Of the dozen or more arrested four have been sentenced 10 be hanged on the 18th day of May next, two have been sentenced to 2l years iDprisOn- msns each. and one to l2 years, all oth- CTS are out on bail and will not be again molested So long as they keep the peace

ROSCOE CONKLING.

Roscoe Oonkling, one of the most dis tinguished of American statesmen, law yers and orators has passed into the abyss beyond, where and winch We know notof. Of what he dIed is not definitely known, but ii is enough to know that 8 great man has gone. He was born st Albany, N. r., October S0th, 1929. and was, consequently. sbout 59 years of age at the time of his death. In 1s46 he removed to Utica whers he at first stud led and then prsoticed law. In 1858 he was elected mayor of that city and sub sequently was elected to Congress for four successive times. From Congress he went to the Senate, being first elected to that body in 1887, from which date be served continuously to the date Of his resignation theretrom. May l7th, 1881. This resignation was brought was brought sboutbythe historical quar- rel between himself and President Gar field over disappointment of JadgeW.H. Robertson, for Collector of Customs in the city of New York, This withdraw al from the senate changed the tenure of his life. Failing in 8 recollection which was attempted by the ssslwsrt ring of the New York legislature then ID session. be announced his retirement from politics and at once renewed the practice of law. s profession in which he had ever been eminently successful. During the presidential election of 1884 he remained st home tssiturn and si- lent, and thus contributed largely to the defeat of Blaine, the Republican csndi- date, against whom be wss particularly emoIttersd and and to whom he largely attributed his. political downfall. The differences between these two men origi- mated through the appointment of fJudge Robertson as above noted. Robertson headed the New York Blaine faction ID the Chicago Convention and on the 1 withdrawal of his name gave his intiu- ence to Garfield and against Grant, of whom OonkIlng was an unsverving sd- yocste. His nomination for Collector was strenuously opposed by ConklinR and fervently urged by Blame, and not withstsDding Couklina's plea of "ihe privilege of the Senate" that body con hrmed him and Conkliug, chsrgrined and dissspointed, together with bis O. worker Pistt, sent his resignation m Had he remsined in the Senate 1t IS net difficult to foresee the position he would have been in to-day. h disposition he

IT IS the duty Of the supervisors 10 do more than pass upon accounts that Ensy. sn the transaction of business, come be- fore them. In their hands, as 6 board, the natural interests of the county should be considered and advanced, by every Legitimate means within their power. With the resources of the county they should be familiar, and as these re sources are neither developed nor utiliz- ed to any considerable extent. it becomes the dusy of tine board, so far as it lies ID their power, to see that these things be done, and the wealth of taxable property increased. To do this. the population Of the county must be increased, Mines must be developed, barren lands made to yield, and waste pGstursEe utilized. In these several departments the county IS unsurpassingly rich. but the mistor- tune, is the ignorance of the outside world in relation thereto, and unless su authoritative effort be made to en- tighten them on the subject, the county can never expect to sd- vance TOT improve. By the judicicus expenditure of c few hundred dollars, ths resources and advantages of this county could be made known to the thousands of people anxious to find homes ID the great southwest. and the tide of immigration rushing past, could be thus stsyed at our own doors. This matter as it now stands, rests with the board of supervisors, who alone have the authority and means to properly advertise the resources of the county. The supervisors of Graham county sSoke to this fact, and those Of Pima county should not be backward in well doing. Every dollar. ss we once before stated, thus expended, will bring ID re- turn hundred fold. E7ery permanent resident secured, every mine opered up, every Insnufsctury started. every piece of land reclaimed, and every stock ranch started means just that much more wealth for Pima county. All these things can be done, but we must first let peo- ple know how end where and when.
