Ostrich Farming.

Several citizens ofthis valley noting the success of our California neigh bors in raising ostrlches, purchased one year ago several fine young birds and brought them to Phoenix, and they became the property of Josiah Harbert. MT. Harbert keeps them in an alfalfa enclosure, and it is notlce- able that they thrive on this nutri- tious clover The hens are very pro- life laying thus far tue present sea son three dozen eggs each. They are all healthy and thrifty, and the fact of this valley being a proper place for raising this king of all birds IS past the experimental stage, and is pro- nounced success by all whe have looked carefully into the natter.

 At present there is no favorable in dication of any light runs upon the cattle markets, consequently no imme- diate improvement in cattle values can be expected. The only hope, and q slim one too, Is that the traffic m dressed beef via a Texas port with England will be established. From it there would be derived two advan- tages: First, saving iu shrinkage on the cattle sold in Texas for export; second, a relief by withdrawing the cattle exported from tic general cat tie markets--Texas Live Stock Jour nal

The expose of the eva:ions of the civil service laws furnishes fine read ing for honest citizens who suppose laws are sometimes seli.enforced. \ system has been in operation whereby the questions to be passed on were made known beforehand, and incom- petents coached 10 the passing point. One Saul Hollander, who has been filling tbousand-dollar clerkship in the New York Custom House had his examination papers all right; but it IS found that he does not know the sim plest clements of notation, can not tell his own age, does not know plus from minus, and is a full.blown ignoranus. Hundreds of such cases are in employ ment, having passed" all right. Can they be got rid of? Is our civil ser vice a modern Augean stable? e?-Globe. Democrat.

Irrigation in the Far west.

From the Western Kansas and Ne
 braska line to the Pacific there stretch es vast region of 100000 square miles, broken into mountains. valleys, and arid plains. It does not seem to be land for the farmer, excepting in
 the rich valleys of California, Oregon, and the Great Salt Lake, and agricul.
 ture has made it's way but slowly. It was long supposed that very little of that country would be available for hnsbandry, but the introduction of ir- rigation caused great change. For many years this species of fertilization
 was confined to the private efforts of landowners in California and New Mexico, but under its fructifying in- fuence inc southern part of the for mer has become a vast garden of flowers and orange trees. IL has been tried to a small extent m Arizona, Colorado, and Utah, and wherever the life-giying streams have been led the result has equalled all the hopes of tbe experirenters. Probably New Mexi- co, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho will yet become great agricultural States. The United States Government Is turning it's serious attention to the question of irrigation in these re- giors, and promises to make extensive topographic surveys. Americans have talent for civil engineering, and they could ask no finer opportunity for the display of thelr talents than in solving the problem of irrigation in the land including and beyond the i Rockies. That immense regions can | be turned into an endless succession of fertile fields by this method, the history of ancient cities, whose ruin, are now surrounded by deserts, cen, clusiyely proves to us. The plan pro. posed by Maj. J. W. Powell, Director of the Geological Survey Bureau, fol continuing the irrigation survey oI i arid lands has met the official approval of Secretary Noble, and quarter of : million dollars has been appropriated for the work which is 10 be prosecuted in Montana, Colorado, New Mexico Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, and CaliIor nia. If q general system of irrigation in the West furnishes the fine result
 hoped, it will be great thing for th' entire country, since it wlll ada fully 50 per cent. to our arabic land, anC l will nourish hardy and active popu i lati8n. When men are forced to over come great natural obstacles in orde
 that their soll may furnish them suS tenancc, they find it necessary to b
 brave, intelligent, and industrious, a

An Indian school Investigation.

A late Washington, D. C., dispatch says: Some tune ago the Rev. Dr. I. s. Childs, of this city, at the request of Secretary Noble, went down to the Hamption Indian school and quietly investigated complaints Tn regard to the management of the Indians, which had been brought 10 the attention of the Government. Dr. Chiids' report, which has not yet been made public, was to the effect that the food given the Indian boys was net good and that the Indians complained that contribu- tions made for their benefit were used for the benefit of the negros of the school. Dr. Childs also commented severely upon the use Of dungeon or guard house built in the basement under the offices of the institution. This cell, he said, is enly : feet 6 inches long, 3 feet 5 inches wide and 9 feet 6 inches biah. It has no window or means of light whatever, and when the door is closed the cell IS absolutely dark The only ventilation is some small holes in the side walls at the top of the cell, and which do not connect with the outside air. A little straw comprised the furniture of the room. The Indian beys. Dr. Child reports, were confined Tn this cell for few days to more than week at time, and some of the officers Of the institu- i tion said the stench was awful when a boy was removed.
 Gen. Clinton B. Fisk, Chairman of the Board of Indian Commissioner, secured copy of the report and sent two members of the Board 10 Hamp- ton, who made report directly con- tradictory 10 that Of Dr. Childs. Dr.. Childs has written | letter to Gen. Fisk in which he makes some sharp criticisms of the Board of Indian Com mlssionerS. That there were things needing correction in the management of the Indian School at Hampton, he says it is evident from the fact that they were corrected after his Investi- gation, and the Indians sent repre-. sentahon of the school to this elty te return thanks for their improved con dition. As to the immuripg of Indians in the dungeon, he says that he l; amazed that the Board Of Indian Commissioners. which has no reason for existence unless it stands between the Indians and wrong, can defend this mode of diSclplinIng Indian chil dren. It Is understood that Secretary Noble has decided that the cell pun isbment shall not be inflicted here
 after.

A Premature step

The Florence Enterprise takes the following sensible view of tho pro- posed constitutional convention. There seems to be great diversity of opln- ion throughout the Territory as to the propriety of calling an election the coming fall for delegates to a censti- tutional convention, as provided by m act of the Fifteenth Legislative Assembly, but we have seen little or no argument presented in support of the positions assumed by tho press upon either side ef the question. There are many points bearing upon this subject to be considered in arriy- ing at a satisfactory conclusion, which should be discussed in fair and dis passionate manner before a decisive step is taken In the first place, does necessity exist for framing state con. stitution at this time? The popula- ton ot our Territory does not exceed sixty thousand, and large percentage of which contributes little or nothing in inc way oi taxes. Under eur prss- ent system with it's expenses partly assumed by the general government, the territorial indebtedness is con stantly increasing and the utmost economy in pubhc expenditures is an imperative necessity to preserve an ap- proxlmate financial equilibrium. The expense of a constitutional ccnysn- ton, with its incident election and ul- innate submission of the result to the people, will involve an outlay of fifty CT sixty thousand dollars, and what do we receive Tn return? Nothing but an unserviceable document that pos sesses no force or value whatever un- ] til Congress sees fit to endow # with ! life. ifit should be rejected by the people the expense of tue experiment will not be at all abated At proper time in the future authority will be given the people of Arizona to frame a constitution and become State in the usual manner, and any undue haste upon our part will not brlns about tue desired result any sooner than seits tue pleasure of Congress But little fault can be found with on
 present government. Politicians vii
 meet with disappointments under ! state government as readily as under the territorial system and just at much dissatisfaction will exist. To bt sure wo will secure larger represen tation Tn Congress and thereby hattei the ambitions of some of CUT aspiring statesmen, but this is scarcely fitting compensation for the additional bur dens the change will lay upon tn
 shoulders of the taxpayers. Unde
 the most favorable circumstances thi
 is all we can hope to gain and it can not be secured any sooner by the fore i ing process involved in thIs movement In cur candid opinion, If the goyerno
 can find reasonable excuse for no issuing the election proclamation re quired by tbc law, we believe his ac
 tion giil be sustained hy the people .
 heartily as it will be condemned b
 the professional politicians.

The Eiaci Tower Elevators,

At the Eifiel Tower an experiment. was performed which produced a strong impression on those present. The engineer of the American firm of Otis subjected the Otis lift to final test before banding it over for public use. The lift, the car oi which cen- sists of two compartments, one above the other, weighs ll,000 kilogs, and loaded with 5000 kllogs, of lead that is to say, weighing l4,0O0 kllogs,- was raised 10 considerable height. There it was fastened with ordinary ropes, and this done 1t was detached from the cables of steel wire with winch it is worked. What was 10 be done was 10 cut the ropes, and allow the lift 10 fall, so as 10 ascertain whether, if the steel cables were te glve way, inc brakes would work prop. erly and support the lift. Two car. penters, armed with great halcheis had ascended to the lift, and were ready to cut the cables. At a given signal, q blow cut the rope, The enormous machine began to fall Every one was startled; but in its downward course the lift began tc move more slowly; it swayed for 8 moment from left 10 right, stuck or the brake, and stopped. There was 8 general cheering. Not pane of glas' in the lift had been broken or cracked and the car stopped without shock al a height of ten meters above tht ground.

a Big { nsirriaking.

An Albuquerque dispatch of June 2lst says: Surveyors who have been at work at the survey of q water pipe line from the Pecos river to San Pe- dfo have reported fayorably and say tAat an English syndicate Is about to undertake .he laying of four foot pipe distance of forty miles, in order to bring an abundant supply of water 10 the Grand Placers for the purpose of washing out the rich deposits of gold, This project, if carried out sue caSsfully, will add milIione of dollars to the available treasure of the world. It Is well known that these extensive gold plaeorS which were sought to be worked by the Spaniards more than two hundred years ago, always fail ing, however, Tor want of water, are the richest placcrs in America.
