WHATEVER may be the merits of the
 telegram sent to Attorney General Mil
 Ter by the late grand jury this morning,
 recommending that the Wham robbery
 case be heard before another Judge than
 the present incumbent of the bench of
 the First Judicial district, it is the gen erally expressed regret by many good
 republicans, that Marshal Meade was
 not likewise included therein. It IS a common report that before the last gen eral election Marshal Meade openly and repeatedly stated that he would not hold office under Republican admins tration, and further, that the man was not a good democrat who would do so. The plea that the exingencics in the Wham Robbery case demand his reten- tion is not valid ground upon which to keep him in. Bob Paul or W. H. Grif- filth has had more experience in handling the criminal element in one week than the present Marshal has had in his life time, but aside from this, with Hon. H. R. Jeffords as United States attorney the interests of the government are safe, we care not who may be marshal, more so if that marshal be a re- publican. Meade's time is out and it is a reflection on the Republican party to keep him longer in office. Personally IS a gentleman we like him, but politi- sally the republicans have no use for nim.

Committee on Irrigation.

That portion of the Senatorial com mittee passing through Tucson, have { agreed to present to the U; s. senate. ! at its next session, with a minority re- port on the advantages etc., Obtalnable by congressional aid, for constructing canals, building reservoirs, dams, etc., be- cause they do not believe in expendlng the money of the people for the above purposes as long as the AERMOIOR windmill is in the market.
 Because 1t is the only mill that VIII answer for irrigatIng in this Territory.
 Because 1t will be sold as. cheap as sec Ond class mills.
 Because 1t is easiest to erect.
 Because the wheel rides on a loose gun metal ring, between two perfectly turned surfaces, by which arrangement an oil cup is formed
 Because 1t is the latest patent.
 Because the wheel IS made entirely of steel, and therefore, wlll last almost lifetime.
 Because it griads, cuts feed, shells corn, or saws wood.
 Because tourists admire the beauty of the AERMOIOR being an ornament to any bOme,--z --
 Because it possesses the trim beauty of the greyhound or thoroughbred.
 Because 1t faces up to a breath of air, and does effective work while other rat tic traps areidIe
 Because no matter how fast the wheel runs, there IS nothing to shake loose, crack, or break
 Because the wheel makes three revo- iutioas to one stroke of the pump, con- seqUertly starts easier under a heavy load.
 Because a 12 foot wheel will do more work than any other Is foot wooden" wheel made, which shows an increase of power of g 15 per cent.
 Because 1t IS more enduring than wood. The AERMOTOR will not shrink, rattle, rot, nor warp, and the Arizona sun. wind, or rain, will have no effect on it.
 Because 1t is perfectly noiseless. You can set your cot right under the mill, and 90 to sleep without hearing or knowing that the mill is pumping 20O0 E.alCns of water an hour. Did you ever hear the din and chatter of other mills?
 Because 1t IS self-regulating; the vane will not allow the wheel to go over a cer- tain speed when it turns the wheel lightly out of the wind, and the wheel -oes not stop like other mills, but quick y rec0veTs when the wind goes down.
 Because you can bring the wheel down to the gronnd for oiling in less than 9 minute, therefore no one will be exposed to severe cold, or intense heat Nor will anyone break his neck by to the top of the tower For the above reasons, parties desiring to purchase wind-mills will do we'll to see them work, as several mills will be put I'D near Tucson, Clifton, Casa Grande, Florence and Maricopa- For the above places mills are on the road, and more will be ordered for other places m short order.

Chinese Wine 3taking.

Wine making is said to have existed for thousands of years before the intro duction of distilling. The process is sim- pie Glutinous rice, or hwang- mi, is placed over fire in large iron pan and softened with warm water. It is made into a thick, solid sort of gruel This steeped rice is placed On a table with raised edges to prevent the fluid from overfiowing. Over the rice, when in this state, the leaven to aid fermentation is sprinkled. The whole is then mixed and mashed with an iron masher, and remains in a large stoneware jar for several days. If the wine is desired to be of a sweet taste two days are enough; but for wine without sweet taste four or five days are required. To make the second kind of wine stronger the Chinese brewer often adds spirit After all this the wine, solid and liquid parts together, Is placed in cloth bag, and this goes into pressing chest of wood called cha, the wine press. A heavy stone presses it down and the wine flows out from a sort of teapot spout in the side of the press.
 The remainder of sciid matter is called tsan, and is used to feed animals or as ferment. The method of distilling was introduced in the Yuen dynasty. To the wooden cylinder which holds the millet there are three covers. The outer and upper one contains cold water and keeps the second ope coni to condense the spirit The spirit rises from the softened red millet below, which has been under manipulation for several days, and passes through the first cover to the second. It here becomes con. densed and flows down the sides into triangular trough which receives is and delivers it from spout. Wlliami and Morrison's dictionary and Legg'f classics seem to have been compiled with the impression that the Chinese practiced distillation in ancient times. This is an error. The Chinese only knew the or dinary process of fermentation Chimes Recorder.

Relies of Washington.

Of the relics of Gen. George Washing. ton none, perhaps, exceed in interest oi are more valuable on account of theu associations than tho collection now owned by MT. Lawrenee Washington, of Marshall, Fauquier county, Virginia, who inherited them from his father, Col John Augustine Washington, the last of the family in ownership of Mount Vernon. This gentleman inherited them from Judge Bushrod Washington, and he from Gen. Washington. These relics, kept at Mount Vernon from the time of Washington till that property passed from the possession of the Washington family to the Ladies' association, ars more intimately associated with Wash. ington's home and, having been foi nearly a century in the possession of hh male heirs, are probably more intimately associated with his name than any other collection, and while every article in il Is highly interesting there are two pieces of surpassing interest not only to Ameri. cans, but also to the people of France.
 The first in point of interest is ful length engraving of Louis XVI, presented to Washington by that unfortunate mon, arch, whose support of the American colonies in their struggle for independ, eDce sc largely contributed to his own destruction by the impetus given to liberal ideas. This engraving the only one of its kind, the plate having been de stroyed with that intent), to make the present more of a personal compliment, was accompanied by an autograph letter from Louis, which was burned with number of other valuable papers about the close of the late civil war;
 The other relic deserving special notice Is statuette of Neckar, to the pedestal of which are attached two brass plates. On the upper plate is the inscription "Qui nobis restituit reIn," and on the lower, Presented to George Washing. ton, President of the United States of America, by his most dutiful, most obedient and most humble servant, Es- taing, citizen of the state of Georgia, by act of February If, 17s3. and citizen of France, 1790." 90."-Washington Cor.

ARCHBISHOP Salpointe, although he failed to convince the late constitutional convention that his views on the school question were good, will by no means consider himself defeated man on the main issue. His strongest argument is yet in reserve. It is the argumentum ad hominem, and he will use it for all 1t is worth when the constitution is submit ted to the people for ratification. The great power of the Catholic clergy in the Territory is at his bidding, and the question with the Catholic voters will be whether to follow the dictation of the church or to fall in line with their old political leaders, Otero: the Pereas, and others of that class, who have agreed to stand by the constitution. There is no room for great deal of confidence in either direction for it will be bitter conflict, this approaching fight between the forces of the state and the legions of the church. If the constitution IS defeated by the people whose represen- tatiyes framed it, the cause of statehood will go into a comatose state so nearly resembling death that it will not be re- vived for many years to come and pos sibly it will be left for another genera tion to carry New Mexico into the union.

THERE has been a crowd of people in Tucson this week from all points in Southeastern Arizona. There has been probably not less than two hundred ar rivals during the week ending today. Such a gathering as this gives an op- portunity to see the class of men now living in this Territory, and their pros ence in any town would give the lie fiat to the many hard things that have been in the past, and are now being published concerning the present population of Arizona There was a time, when to bring two or three hundred men togeth- CT in Southern Arizona would have brought many hard characters, but that day is past, and crime is no more tolera- ted here than in other western states. The desperate has been disposed of, and the rustler has moved his abiding place. During the entire week there has not been even police court drunk to record, and nothing has occurred to cause a rip pie of excitement. Cur visitors are so- Der, industrious and intelligent, and are but sample of the entire population of Arizona today. Some of .bem may be rough in appearance, but they all may be depended upon to speak for law and order at all times.

PATRoNIzE home papers, not to the exclusion of outside prints, but in every instance give the preference to the home paper. The local press wants fran chise; 1t wants to be understood as in dispensible to community life; it wants the right recognized of the local press to be sustained and built up. If the com munity makes the press of town five times as valuable tomorrow as it is to- day, that community will get five times the benefit from it. The weak-faced, worn, threadbare newspaper of town does the town harm from the time it leaves the press until the last poor copy is worn out. A town with such a paper ought to sue it for libel The commu- nifty then, owes the local press fran chise. If it won't give it, organize and command it. Educate the people to pay, and pay well, for newspaper values: educate them to leave the transient and outside sheets alone. Gather the statis- tics of the waste of money on the out side sheets and show the people how their earnings are thrown away by ne glect of the local press, upon which so much of the vitality and energy and pro gressive vigor of the country depends Los Vegas (N.

A Necklace of Human Fingers.

A curious and interesting relic of h. 1iau barbarism was received at the war department few days ago. It consisted of necklace of human fingers. Origin ally there were eleven fingers strung to- gether after the manner of necklaces of bears claws, but three of them had been lost. This ghastly adornment was cap- tured in an attack on the northern Chey- ennes in 1876, and each finger represented a life taken by the owner, the big medicine man of the tribe. The fingers had been preserved by opening the skin, removing the bones, scraping away all the tissues and fatty substances, replacing the bones, and subjecting the skin to some tanning process. The necklace was sent to West Point by Capt. Bourke. who is now en. gagged in preparing some historical matter relating to the Indians. It was brought from West Point here in order that it might be reproduced in paper me. .ae a. the Smithsonian institution.-Washington Cor. New York Sun.

THE Star this morning copies from Tacoma paper the telegram sent from this city sympathizing with T. l.. Stiles in his trouble and refusing to believe him guilty until so proven by the court. The CITIZEN takes pleaaure in reproduc- ing the same and ask our readers if it is not pretty good company to be in. MT. Stiles lived here for years after the fail ure of Hudson and O., and had be been guilty of the crimes now charged against him it is at least passing strange that he was not then held accountable. If on trial he is proven guilty the crime will be upon his own head, but in the mean time we do not believe in convicting him in the public press before he has had an opportunity of being heard. We believe in fair play for the parties accused of the robbery of Paymaster Wham as We do for T. l.. Styles. The branding iron in the hands of the press can, after con viction or on a miscarriage of justice, be legitimately and effectively used for the public good, but it is neither in keeping with justice or good taste to condemn an indicted man before his case has been heard in court. Judge Barnes when in structing petit jury during the pres ent session of court, in substance said: "A grand jury is merely an accusing body and an indictment found by that body carries with it no evidence of guilt.' These instructions can be studied with profit by those who, for personal reasons see convicted felon in a grand jury in dictment which "carries with it no evi- dence of guilt"

At Col. Durr's Place.

It was learned yesterday from the Colonel himself, who was taught to all ways speak the truth by his good grand mother, that since he moved his business from 4 eyer to Congress street, his bus ino5S had increa-ed in volume from day tO day. He now sells one car load of John Wieland's beer every three weeks, and more than a ear load of Anheuser- Bush beer. in the same length of time.
 Beer is only one branch of the large business now carried on by Col Durr, at his corner on Congress street.
 Swiss cheese is received in ponderous cases direct from the old country, and his sales amount to over 700 pounds a month: also California cheese is hand led in large quantities, and the finest of Limberger cheese is always kept on hand, though the sales are not enormous ly large.
 His cigars are all made specially for him and are sold at wholesale and retail.
 THE wARUM DARUM BRAND IS well known and has no superior for the price. The latest brand Is the Tip pecanOe, and 1t Is equal to any cigar to be had in this market.
 Queen olives, the best ever offered in this market, are received direct from Spain. in huge casks.
 h the cellar is kept fine Sherry wine, dozens Of barrels. and everything that is better by being kept in a cool place.
 Whiskey is received from not only all over the United States. but much direct from the old country, three or four of tue best brands made in Hamburg. In one room alone, the reporter counted
 130 BARRELS OF wHISKEY, and including wines and brandies, his present stock would not fall short of 300 barrels and kegs. Also a choice brand of mescal is handled for the benefit of those who like it.
 Besides, all the finest bitters known to mankind, are kept, many of them being imported. In fact, everything in the way of saloon supplies is kept, and noth- ing but the best quality is sold.
 IN ANOTHER DEPARTMENT was found bacon. ham, lard, ,pickled pork, dried fish of all kinds, corned beef, tongue, pickled tongue, pigs feet, saur xraut and vinegar, crackers, tobacco, mustard chOw-chOw, deviled ham, ham, berger eel, and every table delicacy. Something new was exhibited: box of dried lax. one of the finest fish known, and found only in the waters of Norway.

Something New and Good

Col. Durr has again made a step for ward as a public benefactor. IL had come to his ears recently, that some of the ladies of Tucson were complaining about the beer sold in this city being bitter. Being on confidential terms with his grandmother, Q famous old lady Wh0 has spent her life in studying the likes and dislikes of her sex, he wrote her, explaining what was the matter with the ladies of Tucson. The grGndmOthor knew at once the remedy, and straight way sent a carload of the celebrated Extra Pale ErlaDger Standard Beer. This beer arrived yesterday, and has been sampled by the best judges in this city, and pronounced the best family beer in the West. It is just the thing for the ladies, and no bitter taste is ear ried with 1t. The Colonel asks that every family try a few bottles of this beer, and feels confident that they VIII have no other afterwards. The grandmother has never made a mistake about the wants and needs of Tucson, and will answer for the satisfaction given by this new beer with her reputation, which is good.
 The Colonel has been instructed to sell this beer at SIP per bbl. and S2.20 per doz, so that all may share in the luxury and benefits afforded by its use.

THE Republicans of Mississippi, in convention, have decided to put a state ticket in the field this fall. This is a good policy, if for no other reason than to give the Southern bulldozer an op- DOT unity to advertise himself. A Re publican ticket in Mississippi means more Republican votes in other states. where the people believe in voting by ballot instead of by shot-guns.

SCANDAL MONGERS.

It is often remarked that humanity is
 degenerating and that people are not so
 good as they used to be. We do not be-
 lieve this; on the contrary, we believe
 that in proportion to intellectual ad-
 vancement people grow better. But we
 are free to confess that there is one
 phase of humanity that is and has been
 on the downward grade, and that is the
 disposition to islander and backbite op-
 ponents, rivals and neighbors; and to
 make matters more convincing, they parade in vivid colors the faults of their imaginary enemies. Sland IFS are retail ed with as much gusto as truths. Any thing that detracts from or tarnishes another's reputation is a precious nor sel. 1t is true that the worlds history shows that such people never rise high in public esteem. and if ever trusted with responsibilities they are sure to those who trusted them, and their slanderous tongues wag on, and they pass down to the grave des pised, unhonored and unknown, except for the mischief and discontent they have made. Such scandal-mongers are friends to those from whom they expect to derive immediate and continued ia vors, but they will desert a lifetime benefactor in his old age, the moment | these fayors cease. We take no pleas lre, though forced to knew it exists, in dwelling upon this dark side of human nature. but thank God that large ma ority of humanity is actuated by cor 'ect motives, and would much prefer | giving helping hand to lift up, than to push down their fellow townsman.
