the Habeas Corpus Case.
The following are the head notes of
the decision of the Supreme Court in the
case of Benjamin vs.. The State:
James H. Benjamin, plaintiff in error, versus
The State of Florida, defendant in error
RANEY, G. j.:
l. person accused of a capital crime and held
under a mittimuS issued by a magistrate, to
await the action of the grand jury, is entitled up
on habeaS corpus to introduce evidence and show
the real character circumstances of the alleged
offence and should be admitted to bail unless
"the proof is evident or the presumption great
that he is guilty OF capital offence. This right
on habeaS corpus is not lost surrendered by the
accused having waived preliminary examination
before the magistrate, and the omission of the
magistrate to make examination on account of
such waiver.
2. a person accused of crime valves a pre-
liminary before magistrate, and on account of
the waiver no examination is held, he will be es-
topped to claim any advantages because of the

City Waterworks.

1t appears that De Land will soon have
waterworks. For the past week an en-
gineer has been in town looking over the
field, and he reports favorab!y to the
council. He thinks good and sufficient
system of water works can be establish
ed for less than $40,00 The plan that is
looked on most favorably by the council
is for the town to own the works. The
revenue from water rents and the water
tax which is now collected would be suf-
ficient to pay the interest on the money
necessary to be raised and establish sink
ing fund, which would eventually liqui-
date the Indebtedness. AS soon as it is
definitely determined whether or not the
city well will supply sufficient water,
work will be commenced on the works.

Mr.. Chas. Hults has been keeping us
supplied with delicious watermelons for
the past two weeks. He will please ac-
cept thanks and let the good work go on.
When the post Office department sd-
justed the salaries of the different post
masters of the State several weeks since,
salaries of nearly all of the postmasters
were reduced, but thanks to the fine
management of Doc Tanner, DeLand
postoffice remained as it was.
The ST. Johns & DeLand Railroad Co.
was formally organized last week. The
following officers were elected: Presi
dent, j. B. Stetson; vice president, Geo.
Cecil; secretary, G. A. Miller; treasurer,
J. B. Clough. The following directors
were elected: J. B. Clough, G. A. Mil
Ter, A. G. Mum, J. B. Stetson, N. M.
Alexander, Geo. Cecil and VIM. Klapp.
D. D. Rogers, the engineer, arrived yes
terday and will proceed at once to sur
yer the road. 1t will ba completed in
time to move the next orange crop.
Last week sheriff Turner showed us a
solemn-looking document. It was the
death warrant of VIM. Gaskins. This
document had TWO strips of black ribbon
running diagonally across it's face and
fastened at one end with the great seal
OF the State. 1t commands the sheriff
to hang VIM. Gaskins in the manner
prescribed by law, between the hours of
one and fou" on Thursday, August 1st.
Mr.. Turner will have high fence built
south of the Jail, in which enclosure the
execution will take place. The death
warrant of Hammond, the other murder
er, is expected down this week.
There is considerable talk of getting
up base ball tournament for some time
in August. The idea is to run cheap
excursions into town during the tourna-
ment, which will last a week, and offer
prizes and pennant to the clubs win
ming the most games. 1t is thought that
DeLand, Gainesville, Starke, Leesburg,
st. Augustine can be prevailed upon to
enter clubs. The scheme is a good one,
and if successfully carried out would
bring lots of money to town. The base
ball tournament at Orlando three years
ago brought 5000 people into the town,
who spent from fifteen to twenty thous-
and dollars.

A Singular Proceeding.

Messrs Rhodes and Rogers, as sisted by MT Stewart, coerced the uncilinto-passing the Coconino bill, and then, when the matter was in their keeping, without which the legislature dare not adjourn, these boys, for some unaccountable req sons, permitted their golden oppor- tunity to slip and had Chuchill veto and kill the measure they had worked so long and so ardently to pass.
 We confess we are at loss to un- derstand their mode of procedure in this matter, but inasmuch as they are the men who must answer for the blunder, we will not further discuss the question. Will only say that the legislature could not, nor would it dare adjourn without first passing the appropriation bill,

I am not surprised to hear, th

I am not surprised to hear, that very serious rumors are afoat about the health of the German Chancellor. Some say that he is suffering from a paralytic stroke, and that he is not likely to recover ; others declare that his mind is not as clear as it ought to be ; but what ever may be the opinion expressed in different quarters on the subject every one seems to agree that Prince Bismarck is very i'll and unable to to transact public business. Read CTS of Life will no doubt remember that some time ago Suggested that the true cause of the iron chancel- lor's irritability in international matters was incipient cerebral de-
 rangement, and this seems to be now confirmed. His son, Count Her bert, is not influential at court as some politicians believe him to be, and it was whispered in official circles that Prince Hohenlohe is the rising man as far as German poli- tics are concerned.-London Life.

St. Johns. Thursday, April 25.

ROBERT G. INGERsoLL, in North American Review, speaking of the sulficiency of evidence applicable as we'll in spiritual affairs as it is in those of temporal ones, says : "Is there anything praiseworthy in believing where the evidence is suf- fi;ient, or is one to be praised for believing only where the evidence is insufficient? Is man to be blamed for not agreeing with his fellow-citi- zen? Were the unbelievers in the pagan world better or worse than their neighbors? It is probably true that some of the greatest Greeks believed in the gods of that nation. and it is equally true that some of the greatest denied their existence. If credulity is virtue now, it must have been in the days of Athens. If to believe without evidence entities one to eternal re- ward in this century, certainly the same must have been true in the days of the Pharaohs. An infdel is one who does not believe in the prevailing religion. We now ad- init that the infdels of Greece and and Rome were right. The gods that they refused to believe in are dead. To-day the world honors the men who denied and derided those gods"
 Yet these same horored men, who denied and derided" the gods of antiquity were, in their day and tune, derisively called infdels by the minimizing and unreasoning masses. However, this is the re- ward of all those who are the pio- neers of advance thought.

An Historical Document.

A Montgomery, Ala, dispatch ot the 18th says: An interesting his torical document up to a few days past was the property of an Union town citizen. It was the inaugural address of Gen. ". H Harrison delivered on march 4, 1S41. The address is printed on satin, and is perfectly clear and we'll preserved. It was found by Capt. R. A. Har- die among some old papers which belong to Mrs. Constantine Perkins. who was the grandmother of the late Mrs. Hardie, Mrs. Perkins elegant home in Tuscaloosa was the headquarters for the Wings during the memorable canvass which re- suited in Harrison's election, and she was a great admirer of the Gen eral, and did noble work for his cause. Capt. Hardie requested Col. Fowler to forward the relic to Pres ident Harrison, and Col. Fowler wrote an appropriate letter and sent 1t Wednesday.

The Cattle Shipment from South eastern Arizona in One Month.

There are a large number ofrarge cattle being shipped from Arizona to Wyoming, Kansas and other points north, with view of fatten- ing them for the eastern market.
 Dunbar, Logan & Robinson, of the San Pedro, are now driving 1000 head to Deming, from which point they will be shipped by tho Santa Fe north.
 Slaughter has sold 1000 head, which are also being driven to Dem ing for shipment.
 Kansas City parties have pur- chased 600 head which are or will be driven to Deming and loaded on Santa Fe cars.
 MT. Waterman, of the San Pedro is driving 1000 head to San Simon where they will be loaded on cars for shipment north.
 The San Simon company has sold 5000 head which will be put on board of cars at San Simon, for shipment to Wendover, Wyoming,
 The Santa Rita cattle company will drive 5000 head to Deming, and will ship by the Santa Fe to Kansas. 1000 have been already sold 2,000 will be put on pasture to fatten for the market.
 There were several other smaller shipments aggregating 1,200 head, and it is stated that the Pennsyl- vania ranch has sold 1000 head, making total of 14,800 head of cattle sold for the north and east during the last three week.
 MT. Shay, who purchased from Slaughter, wanted 2,OOO head but the price was too high and he bought in New Mexico.
 The ruling prices paid for these various purchases were, yearlings, $0; two years, $15. These prices are considered good by stockmen as compared with prices elsewhere. The value of these shipments at SIP per head is s1776OO,. This at the price paid for two year olds. Three year olds sell for $15 and if the en- tire shipment was of that grade the total amount realized will be $222,- 900. Not a bad showing for one month for southeastern Arizona.- Tucson Star.

They Want The Courts.

The Atlantic & Pacific are strain. ing every point to bring about the removal of Judge Wright and have Sanford, their attorney, appointe q chief justice of Arizona. Railroads sometimes overstep the bounds ot common decency in their manipula- tions, and the proposition to have Judge Wright, who dared to assert his manhood and decide that this greedy corporation should pay its taxes, removed and place in his stead their pliant tool Sanford, does not bear a close resemblance to downright rascallity We fail to ob- serve where the line of common de- cency is to be drawn. It is expect ed that corporations will make war upon all public officers who fail to bow to their behests, but the idea of seeking the removal of an honorable man on the ground of filling his place with one of their paid attor- neys, it not only infamous in it's scope, but should arouse the people of Arizona to enter a vigorous pro- test against it's consumation. The public cannot have any objections to corporations having recourse to the law of our country to right any wrong that may be sought to be in- fiicted upon them; but they will not tolerate such corporations in their selections of the court before whom their suits are to be adjudi- cated. We sincerely trust that At torney- General Miller will not give his sanction to such an infamous proceeding by the appointment of Sanford.-Gazette.

WM. MCDONALD. Esq, an attor- ney-at-law of San Francisco, while passing through Chicago. on his way home from New York City, was interviewed in the former city and reported as follows: II am pretty well acquainted with Arizona and Arizonians, and it has amused me very much by reading ofsomebody's scheme to splice a portion of Ari- zona Territory and by tacking it to a portion of New Mexico, make a new state. It is ridiculous; Ari- zona is more nearly ready to be- come state than any other terri tory, and instead of attaching part of 1t to New Mexico, it is probable it will carry New Mexico into state hood with it."

Eargua Kala.

The croakerS who have been try ing to belittle the Harqua Hala mines had better take a back seat and apologize for their misrepre- sentations whether they were made maliciously or in good faith. The Arizonan never doubted that they were good mines, but Up to yester- day evening, when we interviewed Mir. McNamara, who has just arriv- ed from the Bonanza mine, we nev- CT dreamed that they were as rich as they really are. Said MT. Me- Namara
 II went down into the shaft, which is now about 55 feet deep, and on my asking for sample to take with me to Phoenix was giv- en a pick, and in about five minutes I loosened that chunk of ore you see here" and MT, McNamara showed us a piece of rock the size of an human head, sparkling with gold all over it's surface.
 While going up the shaft" con- tinued Mr. McNamara, "I picked up a loose piece of rock that seem- ed to be ready to fall to the bottom and on reaching sunlight I discov- cred that it was almost pure gold" and he pulled out of his pocket a chunk of black looking stuff the size of a man's thumb, containing at least eight dollars worth of gold. MT. McNamara has both samples on exhibition at his place of busi- nees.
 From information gathered from other sources, there is not a shad- dow of a doubt that the Harqua Hala mlnes are the richest and largest ever discovered in this or any other country. The ledge is at least twenty feet wide. and may be hundreds of yards in extent; in fact, new lodges are discovered ev- cry day in the neighborhood of the Bonanza, and it is believed that the Harqua Hala mountains con- tain the largest deposit of gold the most sanguine imagination ever dreamed of.-Arizonan.

Two Items.

President Cleveland reappointed Postmaster Pearson, although MT. Pearson had voted against him, because he believed fitness and not party service should be the "essen- tial and discriminating test" Pres dent Harrison refused to reappoint Postmaster Pearson, although a Republican, because he had only fitness to recommend him, while his appointee, Van Cott, had done party service instead of post-office service, Which of the two Presi- dents showed himself the consist ent oivil-service reformer in this test case?-Cleyeland Plain-Deal- CT (Dem).
 Postmaster Pearson of New York has kept party politics out of the post-oflice and for that he deserves credit. If his successor does as well in that and in other respects he will be one of the best postmas- ters that New York nas ever had. Mr. Pearson is not removed, for his term of office hac expired, but there were many good reasons for reap pointing him, and perhaps as many and as good for not doing so, but what these latter reasons were we confess we do not knoW-Worces- ter Spy (Rep).
