IS response to a general inquiry ss 10 the available military force the United States is capable of placing in the fold in case of war, Adjutant Gen eral Drum gives the organized militia of the states and territories at S,397 commanding officers and 9S,100 en- listed men, with S,103,67S men avail able for military duty but not organ ized. Eight millions of soldiers, and American soldiers at that, would con stitute formidable army that no Flu ropean nation could hope to success fully oppose.

ELSEWHERE is published the reply of ex-Governor A. P. k. Stafford to the solicitation of his Arizona friends to be- come a candidate for appointment as governor of Arizona. Gov Stafford was for eight years the chief executive of this Territory, during its darkest days and most troublous times, and he labored necessarily for the public veal. Ills rscn-L is 2 ssod one and is ~Gelr recommendation for reap pointment. With great reluctance he has ConsenteS p become a candidate and with characteristic magnanimity is willing at any time to withdraw in favor of any one whs can serve the Territory better. He has large inter eats in Arizona and has always con sidered it his home, even while en- gagged in speculative enterprises in Florida, and therefore he comes with in the purview of the home rule doc Urine. We regard Gov. Saffold as the most eligible and strongest candidate vet mentioned for the position of Gov, srnor. and we hope the mantle of su- thority will be placed upon his shoul
 dsrs when the change of administra- ton is felt in this remote quater of the nation.

ONE year ago southern California was happy in the enjoyment of a bloom" with all that the word has ever been conceived toimply. It grew suddenly into prominence and fc- tihous wealth and people from all portions of the country rushed thither to enter the wild speculation that ab- sorhed all other interests, in the hope that their investments would expand their wealth to fabulous proportions within an incredibly short space of time. The fever of excitement was 90 strong that values grew daily and with cut any adequate foundation and in Vestors counted their expectant profits by ghttering thousands. But the re- action Enally came and the penalty was exac!ed with memorable fidelity The epitaph of the great "boom" can be read in the eighty-six columns ol the delinquent tax list of Los Angeles fcounty and no other words can more orcibly record the disaster i ts rationa fate entailed. It was hard and stern experience but not without whole some lesson. Out of it's ashes there has grown determination to begin al the foundation of all lasting prosperity and build legitimate temple out O the imperishable resources of thai really wonderful country. Ths celerium of speculation has been succeeded by 8 rational and req sOnable advancement, not so attrac lively wild and exciting, but far more robust and healthy. IL wants no more "booms," but is willing to abide by it' recognized merits and advance slowly but sure. "Booms" are not desirable in a country possessed of Legitimate resources and while we, of Arizona, de sire to see our country advance as rap idly as possible towards the grand des tiny that awaits it, we do not covet { wild and unreasonable rush of specu lators and fictitious values that mus sooner or later react to our detriment We possess the solid foundation for | grand country that will eventually be come the pride of the west, and kin, fate has decreed that we shall advanc cautiously towards that coveted con dition VIC see vividly pictured in tn future years.

Great thin gs are expected of the dyn amite cruiser Vesuvius. If sue cess, the United States will again work a revolution in naval warfare, as she did with the Monitor during the re- bellion. The speed of the new ship is greater that of any vessel that has hitherto been built for marine war fare. On her trial trip she made B miles an hour with perfect ease. The armament of the Vesuvius consists of three pneumatic guns built into the hull of the boat, and therefore they are absolutely immovable. This is an anomaly, for no thought of placing guns where they could not be aimed has ever before entered the mind of man. The pilot directs the boat so that the guns shall bear upon hostile crafts. When he has aimed his boat, he touches an electrical button and projectile laden with 500 pounds of dyn- amite Is hurled by the release of the compressed air at the target. The dynamite bomb costs $75O, and if the mark is missed that amount of cash has gone to waste. If the vessel or other object be struck, 1t matters not whether Ii is steel clad or wooden, the terrific explosion which follows totally annihilates it and everything in the immediate vicinity. The Krupp guns of Europe are useless in its presence. The inventor and the government are very confident of the success of the Ve- suvius, and as no such other vessel has been constructed, the fleet vessel will be the terror of the seas until other nations have equipped similar war vessels. The presence of the Ve- suvius at Samoa would probably bring Bismarck to terms by cable in very brief neriOd

DOUBTLESS General Harrison feels
 profoundly grateful to the press for
 its generous assistance in forming
 his cabinet, and will eventually man ifest his appreciation by parceling out the spells of office to his dear ten thousand editors, in the hope that some of the deadly perils that turk about the foreign places occupied by indolent consuls may, in due time, forever rid this country of their med dlesome presence. His cabinet has been carefully prepared for him in all manner of combinations possible with the scores of developing statesmen, and out of sheer desperation and regard for peace and harmony the president will be forced to choose for himself his staff of advisers and assistants l The sad result will be seen i'll blighted ambition and blasted hopes that will SOW the seeds of sorrow and misan- throphy in many an expectsnt bosom

A Discovery of Nickel

A small sized mining excitement is incubating in Globe, which may grow to larger proportions soon. It is oc- casioned by discovery of nickel in the Sierra Ancha Mountains, at the head of Tank creek in Gila County, by Frank Cline, who visited Globe on Monday and had his claim, "the Nick el King" recorded. The character of the mineral has been positively deter mined by an analysis made by the San Francisco mint, showing, it is alleged, seventy-two per cent nickel in the sample. The width of the ledge is variously stated at from four or five to ten feet, and Is said to crop out at several points and can be traced for & distance of three miles or more E.
 F. Kellner has contract with the To- cator which may result in his bonding the claim. Chas. Bouquet, who re- sides ill Tonto Basin. some twelve miles from the find, and is familiar with the country, confirmed the story of the large deposits of this ore, and expressed his intention of making some locations, near the Cline dis coyery, on his return. w. A. Holmes, who prospected that region years ago, leaves for there to-day.-Silver Belt.

THERE is one place in the west where a newspaper is appreciated. There are two rival towns in Los Ami mas county, Colorado, seven miles apart, in one of which weekly news paper was published. The greater prosperity of the other town induced the publisher to conclude to move his paper thither, to which the people ob- jected and when an attempt was made to remove the material, rather than to see it go to rival town, the people broke the press, pied the type and burned the furniture. Whether or not they will prevent the winds from carrying the ashes across to their hate ful competitor is not known, but the unlucky printer who came between the upper and neither millstone of their struggle for his possession, has re paired to a neighboring city to borrow sack full of type to commence his business career over again. But few communities appreciate their news paper so highly as to wage war for its possession.

CONGRESS is exhibiting a very satis- factory spirit regarding the Samoan troubles and will probably take steps to uphold the dignity of the United States in the matter and to enforce proper respect for the existing treaty regard ing that island. Many members are outspoken in their indignation at the presumption of the German naval fore es at Apia and arc firmly convinced that prompt and decisive measures are necessary on the part of this gov ernment. The following resolution from member of the House commit tee on naval affairs will be presented at the first opportunity:
 WHEREAS, From reports transmitted to Congress by the President of the United States, and from current news paper accounts, the rights of American citizens appear to have been grossly invaded and the commercial interests ei the United States jeopardized by the action of the German government through its naval forces in the Sa- moan islands and
 WHEREAS, Late newspaper dispatch es show that steps have been taken looking to the acquisition of the Sa- moan islands by the German govern ment in violation of the rights and in- tegrity of the government with which the government of the United States holds treaty and commercial relations and in violation of the treaty rights of the United States. Therefore be it
 Resolved, By the Senate and House of Representative of the United States in Congress assembled, that the Presi- dent is hereby authorized and directed to take such steps, forcibly if deemed expedient, as are necessary and proper to protect and maintain the honor dignity and interests of the flag anC government of the United States anC its citizens, wherever dispersed, agains the acts of the Emperor of Germany or his forces.
 It may seem an insignificant matte over which our friendly relations witt the German government arc becoming jeopardized, and the cause utterly ill adequate to the consequences of aI open disruption, but the principle in volVed Is fully as great as though al attempt was made to invade portion of the American continent. Indeed it is greater, for the provisions of solemn treaty have been wantonly vio lated and fragrant insult offered ou flag by searching our vessels entering Samoan waters for contr lband of war The argument that the United State is not called upon to guarantee sta
 ble government in the distant, hal civilized islands of the Pacific osear possesses no force whatever in tn present difficulty. Our nation has b.
 come party to treaty compact wit Great Britain and Germany regardin , the autonomy of the Samoan island
 and by every principle of right an honor it is bound thereby to fulfill i agreement at whatever cost, and thel is no other honorable way out of tt difficulty. The affair has now reache a stage where only square backdow by either Germany or the Finite States can avert conflict and thel
 is no true American that wants { witness such humiliation on the pa of his country.

A BAND of Geronimo's murderous followers have been brought from Mount Vernon, Alabama, under charge of Lieutenent Chase and placed upon the Msscalero reservation in New Mex ico. They are now sufficiently near their old scenes of deviltry to again turn their attention to the chase for human game and after a short season of rest and quietude they will doubtless seek to incite other Indians to join them in a raid upon the first favorable opportunity.

THE statement of the bar of Phenix that the United States Judges in Ari- zona receive from the territory and the several counties thereof the sum of $7 100 per annum in addition to the regular salaries paid by the general government, is not correct. The ex- act sum is somewhere between $4,800 and $4,900, and as it is a voluntary contribution it can be stopped when ever it is deemed burdensome. The scheme of creating circuit courts is gotten up in the interests of lawyers and aspirants for the positions il would create. There is no more ne cessity for this new court than there is for fifth wheel to wagon.

Hale, Mrjor Hemmenway and others, representing that the celebrated ruin of Casa Grsnde near this place, is unprotected from depredations from visitors and has suffered more from this source in the past eleven years than during the three hundred and fifty years preceding, and praying that the government take steps to protect it.

SENATOR STEWART has introduced a bill in Congress to provide for an ad- ditional Associate Justice of the Su- preme Court for Arizona. It provides also that the Judge from whose court an appeal is taken shall not par;ici- pate in it's review by the Supreme Court. This measure is rendered nec- essary by the increasing business oi the courts of the Territory and to give the Supreme Court three unbiased judges upon all cases of appeal. This bill will undoubtedly become a law and it's enactment will render the pro posed circuit courts unnecessary.

THE largest telescope in the world is to be erected upon the summit of Wilson's peak, Los Angeles county, California, and Ar Alvan Clark, msk- CT of the lenses of the Lick telescope, has been commissioned to construct the great instrument. It is believed the clearer and lighter atmosphere of southern California will enable this powerful Tense to make more search ing investigation of the heavenly bod ies than has ever yet been accomplish ed. The highly raTiGed atmosphere of Arizona is still more favorable for such a work and we havo faith to be- lieve that eventually a grand observa- tory will crown the summit of the Santa Catalina mountains in tkis county, over twslve thousand feet above the sea level.

His candidacy has been received with great favor by the peo- pie who, without regard to political afiliation, will urge his appointment with zeal and feryency. Mir.
