HoN. J. A. BLACK, Commissioner of Immigration, ia one of the hardest work ing and most concientious officers in the Territory. Since his appointment to the office he now holds,he has written many letters and disbursed much information concerning the resources of the Territo- ", which at the best, notwith
 standing what previously may have been done, are but little known. The of flee of Commissioner of Immigration IS no sinecure if the appointee handling 1t but does his duty, nor is it the perqui- site of any particular section of the country as some of his predecessors have by their actions hitherto implied. It is carried on by the money of the Terri torp and the Territory as a whole is en- titled to its benefits. That there may be no complaint against his administra- ton in this respect he has been at work carefully gathering data and acquaint- ing himself with the fertility and re- sources of the north as well as the south, the east as well as the west. Nor has Central Arizona been forgotten, but by letters of inquiry and published in
 formation he is able to lay before his en- quirers, which are numbered by the hundreds, the wonderful capabilities of that land of promise. Under adverse circumstances he has continued this work of investigation, which in due time will be given to the public in pamphlet form. It will be no rehash of an old story but new facts and figures that will bring thousands of home seekers to our shores. If his traducers would put their shoulders to the wheel and push as John A Black is doing, the territory would be better for their efforts. If men are to be judged by the fruits of their labor and not by their efforts to fill their pockets from the coffers of the territory, the thousands who are bettered and bene- fitted by his labor and painstaking in dustry, will speak kindly of him when his traducers have been forgotten.

THE WHY OF THE WHINE.

1t is fact recently of notice, that Governor Wolhey in publishing his proclamation offering reward for the arrest of the Cedar Springs robbers, had it published in those papers only which were friendly to the Governor, and with the exception of one, he has ignored all the papers which circulate in the county where the robbery was committed. The Star suggests to Gov ernor Wolfley, that the funds placed at his disposal to be used for rewards, etc., Is public fund, contributed by the Territory, by members of both parties, and he is expected to expend the same to the very best advantage of the pub lie service and not as rewards and jobs to his personal friends. The Star calls the attention of Governor Wolfiey to this matter in the "kindliest spirit" as we appreciate the fact that our Cover nor has not had much experience in public service and is liable to commit errors.-Star.
 For the benefit of our contemporary which is ever prone to whine when it gets in the fence, we will state that the proclamation in question was published in the CITIZEN which as the Star man we'll knows-is a Territorial circulator, and would of itself have sufficed to 'carry the news to Mary" It was published in the Epitaph, the represen- tation paper of Cochise county; it was published in the Silver Belt, the official paper of Gila County; it was published in the Clifton Clarion, the old establish ed and well-known circulating medium of Graham county, the county in which the robbery was committed; it was pub lished in the Prescott Journal Miner, a paper of general circulation throughout the northern portion of the territory. Looking over this influential list of rep resentative newspapers-democratic and republican-we do not we'll see how the ends of justice could better be served.
 When Zulick was made governor, he ignored the CITIZEN, and gave his procla- nations to the Star, but no whine went up from the CITIZEN; We recognized the right of Governor Zulick to bestow his patronage on papers friendly to his ad- ministration, and it was not until he had been hit hard by something from the Star office. more odoriferous than ''the end of a tarred stick" that self-respect forced him to abandon that institution and send his proclamations for publica- tion to the CITIZEN, which in the lan- guage of honest John Marion you al ways know where to find"
 It is true, as the Star plaintively says, that the money from which this class of work is paid, is contributed by Dem ocrat and Republican alike. So it was when Governor Zulick showered his favors on the Star. So is the appropri- ation under control of the Hon. Secre- tary of War for the payment of adver- tising army contracts, etc., but designa- ted journals only are authorized to in- sert these publications. When MT. En- dicott was Secretary of War these ad vertisements fell into the Star hopper, but when the wheel of fortune changed and the Democracy retired to private life, the CITIZEN soon had the little Star man up tree on government advertis- ing, and now has the sole pleasure of re- ceipting for money paid out In this di- rection.

A FAMOUS RATILE-eRoUNp.


 On the banks of the Tippecanoe, small stream which enters the Wabash River in Indiana, was fought the terrible battle or Tlppecanoe.
 In this great struggle of frontier times, the allied western Indians under the chieftainship of Elshwatawa, the Prophet were defeated in November, ISl1, by the Americans under the com mand of Gen. Wm H. Harrison.
 It was desperate, hard fought battle, and much depended upon the result.
 Had the Indians been successful, all barriers of defence for the early settlers would have been overthrown and the deadly tomahawk would have been active in the rapid extermination of the remaining pioneers. On-the other hand the fortunate termination of the contest put an end to further attempts at open warfare by the Indians. The rich terri tory, so long overrun by hostile savages, was thrown open for settlement, which rapidly occurred as soon as the news of the great victory became widespread
 Naturally great praise was rendered to the success and intrepid bravery of Gen. Harrison and he was honored in many ways. He afterwards served as Com mander of the Army of the Northwest, and when Indiana was admitted to State hood, he was selected to represent the State in the United States Senate. In 1S40 he was elected President and his un- fortunate demise occurred shortly after being inaUgurated.
 The forty second anniversary of the Battle of Tippecanoe found the gallant grandson of "Old Tip" leading his forces to great political victory which resulted in the selection of Gen. Ben. Harrison as President of the United States.
 The Harrisons have been a hardy race of men, sprung from old log cabin stock, which is a sufficient guarantee of its genuineness wherever found. Real izing the truth of this, great effort has been made to re-discover some of the se- crets contained in the old log cabin stock of useful articles, and as the result, the famous Old Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, universally regarded as the best Spring tonic and blood cleanser has been found. Not satisfied with the worldwide esteem which is held for Warmers Safe Cure, the only cure for kidney diseases, the proprietor is willing to do all that is pos sible to establish Warmers Log Cabin Sarsaparilla as foremost among house hold articles on account of its purity and effectiveness.
 After all, each individual has, at all times, the great battle of life or death to fight, and for security attention must ne cessarily be given to the best weapons which science can offer humanity in the great contest.

A Sea Sick Passenger

On the ocean, cares little about storm
 He is positively indifferent whether he
 is washed overheard or not. But set right by wineglassful or two of Hostel ter's Stomach Bitters, he feels renewed interest in his personal safety. This fine corrective neutralizes in brackish water often compulsorily drank on ship board, to the grevious detrimeut of health-the perniciousim impurities which give rise to disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. To the mariner, the tourist, the Western pioneer and miner, the Bitters is invaluable as a means of protection against malaria, when its seeds are latent in air and water To the effect of overwork, mental or man. ual, it is most reliable antidote, and to the debiliated and nervous, it affords great and speedily felt relief and vigor.

The Ward Schools.

The closing exercises to be given at the Second Ward school in the Barrie Libre will be very interesting. This school was started less than six months ago, and none of the pupils now attend ing had ever spoken scarcely single word of English before. Anyone hay ing an interest in schools would enjoy a visit to this school and their presence would be pleasure and lend encour- agement to these little poor Mexican children.
 The exercises will be conducted in English by Miss Borton, the teacher, who deserves much praise for the sue cess she has attained during the last five months, especially so, considering the class from which she drew her pu- pils-the poorest. This exhibition will be held in the morning.

BERLIN, May 2l.-Ihe special cores pondent of the Associated Press here was informed this evening that Germany had finally consented to restore King Mallatoa. But now comes fresh diff culty, growing out of Germany's claim
 for indemnity. The American commis- sioners hold that if any indemnity is to
 be paid it must be merely a nominal
 sum. Germany, on the contrary, main
 tains that in the conflicts between the
 German forces and Samoans, the latter
 were invariably the aggressor and were
 guilty of barharous practices which
 should entail upon Samoa the payment of a special indemnity. The matter very
 likely will have to be referred to the
 plenary conference.
