"A recent an.lyzaton in Philadelphia by ( celebrated chemist of ten popular brands of sar saparilla discloses the astonishing fact that these ten samples of blood purifiers @ con tained in the aggregate siIteen different min erals, eleven of which were active pOisOns. IOdide of potash was discoverei in every sam- pla mercury was found in all but two. while arsenic existed in six of the ten brands. NOl one brand was the pure article"

The Albuquerque Citizen says ''ln the event that the statesmen oi the ter. ritory cannot agree on candidate iol governor, the Ci,izen modestly suggests the name If Judge William C. Hazl.- dine, of this city, for the position. All parties and factions in every section of the territory will admit the Judges fit ness for the position, and if appoint. d he would gracefully do the honors of the executive office with admirable ability and courtesy to all" While not being directly interested in the selection of a goysrnor for New Mexico, ,he JOURNAL MINER can heartily endorse the above.

Senator Ingalls,. in letter to the ed
 itor of the New York Independent, ex- presses the right sort of civil service doctrine when he said: If there will be more than forty thousand democrats m ofhce on the 4th Of March next, about which I know nothing, they should be removed before the going down of the sun on that day. and more than forty thousand republicans appointed Tn their stead" And m this, NIT. h. gals is not only right. but hs is per fectly consistent. When bill to "reg- ulate the civil service" was before the the senate six years ago-a measure which was framed for the purpose of republicans in office under democratic sdministration-Mr. Ingalls, opposed 1t, and warned his. repub- lican colleagues that IL was ap inven- ton that would return to plague them.

New men and new bleod from the re- publican party will be found in office after the advent of the new administra- ton. The old republican regeme has been relegated to back seats 1; 1t long had its days and favers and officers and under its weight the republican party went down. It has come to the front again under impulse of new men and the old could scarcely expect, even were there any justice in it to the new workers. that they could longer shake the tree and gather the fruit Senator Quay has sounded the keynote ID this matter and it means to the party all that it meant to the inividual to whom he addressed his remarks. .-Phenix Herald.

 Speaking of Alaska in recent lecture in Washington, Prof. J. W. Chickerlng said that the great obstacle to enjoying summer there IS the vast number of large and bloedthirs;y mosquitoes. Dogs are killed by them and men preserve tner lives only by covering their faces with thick cloths and wearing gloves.
 Congress should make an appropria- ton for enlarging and improving the quarters at Whipple Barracks. That post is the healthiest on the Pacihc coast, while 1t possesses all other ad- vantages for garrisening large number of troops. We hope that our new depart ment commander, Colonel B. H. Grier- son, will recommend such an approprla- ton.
 It would be amusing were 1t not so ridiculous, to see the interest manifested ! in the republican party by some demo cratic papers. From the recommends tions, for appointments to efflce' that are being made by them one would be led to believe that they had worked for the success of the party. It will, however, require betrsr endorsement, than the recommendation o! democratic paper to secure an office under the next ad- ministratlon.
 The interior department has no,ihed the Cherskees, that the Cherokee strip is the property of the United States and that the Indians have no right to lease it.

A BETTER MAIL SERVICE NEEDED.

Citizens of Williamson valley com- plain, and just.y too, of the lack of proper mail service. The mail reaches there only once week and the sched- ule IS such, that 1t requires about two weeks ;os letter, mailed at Prescott, to reach the valley ard have an answer re,urred to Prescott The citizens of that section including Walnut creek should have at least tri-weetkly mail service. Williamson valley and Wal nut creek a.e not the only sections either where mai service is inadequate.
 Copper Basin and Congress City should each have post offices and mail routes established to them.
 A daily mai service from Phenix via the Black Canyon road and a ui- weekly wa Wlckenburg, Stanton. Ante lope and Skull valleys, should be estab- lished instead of the present, six times a week, three each way, service which IS very unsatisfactory in every respect There IS no reason why great govern msnt like ours should not provide hcl 1 citizens who live on 'he frontier, some thing approaching competent mai ! facilities when 1t can afford to carry the letters and papers of people living ir the great cities to their doors and deliver l them into their hands. It would cos little money, but if men and womer are willing to deprive themselves of the ! comforts and luxuries of the older and more populous places and endure hard ships, trials and inconvenience of the frontier, and develop the resources O the country, the government should al least be willing to provide them witt 1, the means of hearing f;om the rest 0
 the world at regular intervals. The
 policy established In the mail service o the territories of the west IS parsimon ,ous in the extreme and Is not a credi to our government.

The United States grand jury com

The United States grand jury com pleted its lsbors and were discharged several days since, but up to the pres ent writing the report they made has not come to light. Ii IS now, however, an open secret that several prominent citizens were indicted by 1t charged with cutting timber on government land. and others with perjury in connection with
 making final proofs on government
 and. These indictments have been secured through the administrations special agents and will no doubt be the subject of voiumineus reports from them to the department at Washington.
 While not familiar with all the cases we are not able to express an opinion IT regard to them in the aggregate, but We are sufficiently familiar with some to characterize them as an outrage. While
 doing SO, 1t may be added that the grand jury and court are not to blame in the matter, the testimony introduced
 being ex-parte entirely, of such nature as to justify the action taken. Should these cases ever come to trial we sin cerely believe that 1t will be demon
 strated that the courts of justice have
 been made innocent instruments of per senal persecution, for which the victims can obtain no redress.
