An Unjust Charge.

While it is probably true that more or less timber has been cut from the public lands Tn Arzopa, # will require evidence great deal stronger than the unsupported assertion of timber in- spector to convince the public that the Aver lumber company Is guilty of the
 trespasslng with which it IS charged especially that portion of he public
 acquainted with D. NJ Riordan, who
 has had general charge os the com
 pany's business for long time past.
 He IS an upright, honorable and Con- scienclous man who would not kno"- ingly take the property Of the govern ment for the benefit ot himself or h!s company. And more than that, the Aver lumber people are obliged to ao- count to the Atlantic & Pacific railroad company for all the lumber they make, so that 1t would not do them any good to steal timber from the public land, even if they were so disp osed. .-Alhu- querQue Democrat.

OUR NEED OF AN APPELLATE
 COURT.

Many a man WHO has appealed from the decision oi the ''lower courts" Tn this territory, will say amen to the fol- lowing article from the Tucson Citizen. The JoURNAL-MINER placed itself on record year. ago on that proposition and has never changed its opinion. An ap- peal from a di,tHct jedge to the same ln- diyidual as supreme judge, touches the humorous in ones system. The Citizen has the following:
 "Arizona, and probably New Mexico also, IS greatly in need of an appellate court. Not a court having jurisdiction oyer land grants bu! pure and simple, to rehear any and all cases appealed from the ruling of the lower or district court. Until such court IS established the right ot appeal becomes practically dead letter, as 1t resolves itself into an appeal for arehearing before the same tribunal which had previously gwen judgment against the appellant II IS use! ss to say that the judge of the court wherein this particular case IS beard, wlthdraws from the bench pending its examination on briefs submitted, n order that his two Conferees may neither be embarrassed nor influence by his presence, Tn favor Os the previous ruling for as rule, it IS as safe with them as if he again sat alone upon 1t.

Tbe.ditor of the Tucson Citi zen

Theeditor of the Tucson Citl zen
 must certainly know that he writes a falsehcod, when he states that the citi- zens ef Arizona are almost unanimously in favor of the promotion General Miles over General Crook. It will make but little difference in the matter of promo
 ,ion as to how the citizens of Arizona feel about the matter as Arizona IS not consulted in matters of national ap- pointments, but were it left to the people there is no question that a majority would favor General Crook
 It IS true that General Miles has many warm personal friends in the southern part of this territory-friends whose policy it IS to be friendly to him. But among the military stationed in this departmen, as we'll as among conserva- tive impartial citizen the friends of General Crook greatly outnumber those of the presert department commander.

An effort on the part of the Repub-

prive Hon. John G.. Carlisle of his
seat in the next Congress. The Re-
publicans claim that the ballots were
perforated after they were printed,
which was distinguishing feature
of the Carlisle ballot. AS all the bal
lots cast for Carlisle were not per-
forAted, it is believed that he would
be elected after the perforated bal
lots were thrown out, it should be
decided that the law in this state had
not been complied with, which says
that the ballots shall be on plain
white paper with no distinguishing
feature.

When the plan of voting a subsidy
by the county TO another railroad
was first mentioned by the projectors
it was looked upon with great dis
favor by large majority of the peo-
pie of the city and county. But the
business men generally realized that
another road must be built; how to
get the road without taxation was an
lnsolvable problem. Meeting after

was considered, but there was no

The crowd, din and confusion on
the streets Saturday were wholly un-
precedented and beyond description
The scene was bewildoring, and the
olamor utterly bewildering. Still
the whole demonstration was rem
arksble for its harmony, unanimity
and good-fello wship. No man was
molested for opinions sake. There
was no bitterness nor intolerance ex-
hibited. Everybody was in fine
spirits and for the railroads. The
watchword of the day was. "Let us
have competition" For this all
worked, talked, electioneered, shout
ed and blew their horns together
with wild uproar TO which the
horn of Roland at the battle of Ron
cesvalles was feeble circumstance.
1t demonstrated fully what Hopkins
vile and the progressive people of
Christian can do when they all pull
together in righteous cause.
