Viewed With Disfavor.
lRelt Belt 1


 The action of the Interior Depart ment in returning to the Mescalero reservation in New Mexico, a number of Chiracahua Indians, who were sent east with Geronimo, is viewed with suspicion and disfavor by the people of southeastern Arizona, notwithstand- ing 1t is given out that the Indians returned are few in number and most ly women and children It looks too much like an attempt to mollify the "Indian Peace Society" which has been clamoring for the return of Ge- ronimo and his entire band of cut throats to the San Carlos reservation. The removal of these Indians to a place remote from the scenes of their revolting murders and depredations was joyfully accepted by the people of Arizona as promising change in the policy of the Government towards offending Indians, and the prompt and permanent removal of recalcitrant individuals and bands from reserva. tions where they breed discord and in- cite other Indians to rebel If offend ing Indians are permitted to go un- punished they soon contaminate others, until the whole batch is leaven- ed and an outbreak follows. Give the Apache to understand that disobedi- ence means banishment and he will show more respect for Uncle Sam's authority, and life and property will be more secure from his despoilins | hand.

The Round Valley Troubles.

More trouble transpired in Round Valley last Saturday and the feud be- tween Messrs. James Brash and Nicho- las White once more brought these parties into court. From the testi- mony adduced it seems that MT. White had erected a fence across a portion of Mir. Brash's homestead, sup posing it was the boundary line. It was, however, clearly within the land claimed by Mir. Brash, and on the day mentioned the latter gentleman pro ceeded with force of men to remove it. MT. White soon appeared upon the ground and commanded a cessa- ton of the work and upon a refusal to comply a few hard words were ex- changed and Mir. White rode off threat ening to put stop to the work.
 Soon afterward Mrs. White, Mrs. Cullen and Miss Mamie Cullen came upon the scene and they were prompt ly ordered away by Mr. Brash but would not go. Hot words followed and Mrs. White placed her arms about the fence posts to keep the men from removing them. MT Brash took her arms off and pushed her aside, but she immediately went to another post and repeated the same action sev- eral times. Here the testimony diff fcrs, the White family stating that Mir. Brash struck Mrs. White with his fist, nearly knocking her down, from the effects of which she suffered a fractured rib and has since been con fined to her bed and has bleed ing the lungs. On the contrary, MT. Brash and six witnesses swore that no violence was used; that he pushed her away with his left hand that she stepped into & post hole and came near falling thereby; that after she returned to her house shot was fired at Willie Brash who was carrying away a load of posts and thereupon she was seen waving her hands as i cheering a supposed attack on Brash- thing she could not well do if hel rib was fractured. It was shown that 1 Mrs. White was feeble from recent | sickness and had been under medical | treatment.
 After hearing all the evidence Jus { ticc Miller held the defendant, Mir Brash, under $500 bonds to appear be fore the next grand jury.

Mir. T. W. Bates came down from Dudleyville Wednesday. He reports active operations having been resumed on the San Pedro Consolidated Min ing Corapany's properties 1tha- Sam pie group and that appearances indi- cate that earnest development has been inaugurated.
 A party of government surveyors were at Mir. w. A. Cunningham's ranch, surveying a wagon road from San Carlos to the San Pedro about half mile from its junction with the Gila A military escort accompanies them. A good road can be built for moder- ate sum, passing near the coal fields. A bridge across the.San Pedro is badly needed to accommodate the travel, and if built near MT. Cunningham's s ranch the bridge crossing the Gila can be utilized for all the Globe and San Carlos travel.

PinaI,s Councilman.

The Phenix Herald gives the follow sketch of the life of Hon. R. E. Sloan, member of the Council from this coun- ty:
 Hon. R. E. Sloan, who so ably rep resents Final county in the present Legislature, had the good fortune to be born in Ohio, where he received a first class education. He was grad uate from Monmoth College, in 1877 and afterwards from the Cincinnati Law School. He was admitted to practice before the Supreme Court of Ohio, and after following his profess sion in that state for a few years, he came to Arizona in 1884, locating in Phenix. He practiced his profession with marked success in this city for about two years, and was earning for himself well merited reputation as one of the brightest legal lights in the county, when he removed to Florence, where his reputation had preceded him. MT. Sloan has lived in Florence about three years, and during that time has become known throughout the entire Territory as one of its most able and brilliant lawyers. For two years he was the District Attorney for Pinal county, and in that capacity al- so gave general satisfaction to the peo- pie, and was offered a second term in the office, which he declined. In poli- tics Mir. Sloan is an ardent Republi- can, and was delegate to the last Republican Territorial convention which selected delegates to the Chica- go convention which nominated liar rison for President, and presided with much ability and dignity, delivering 2 forcible and eloquent address on ac cepting the same. Mir Sloan is the Chairman of the judiciary committee of that body. He is a married man and his wife is remaining in the city with him during the legislative ses sion.

Worth Remembering.

It Is said that nature provides a remedy for every i'll that flesh is heir to, but if this be so mankind IS slow to recognize many of it's most meri- torious provisions of the kind. Among other remedies in use by the Indians of Arizona for various ills. they have sure cure for rheumatism, even in it's worst stages, in the common grease wood (Hediondia) that grows exten- sively over the whole Territory. They gather the leaves in large quantities and boil them in huge vessel. Then they excavate d shallow trench, place a cloth, gunny sacks or any woven fabric in the bottom, over which they pour the boiling leaves. When suffi- ciently cooled for the patient to bear it, he is placed thereon in recumbent position and closely covered over with blankets to restrain rapid evaporation and exclude the air. A most vigor- ous and protuse precipitation of the patient ensues and when the cata plasm becomes reduced to the tenn perature of the surrounding atmos- phere, the patient is bathed. resumes his clothing and goes forth well man. Some really marvellous cures are re- ported by this means among the In dians and it might be easily adapted to civilized sufferers with profit.

That there is a move on foot to quarter large proportion of the San Carlos Apaches on the Fort Verde res ervation, is an established fact. The people on the Verde will look with dismay upon a move of this klnd, for from the day these Indians arrive all sorts of depredations and petty thiev- cry will be regular thing, to be fol- lowed by an occasional murder. No more will they feel secure in sending their little children off to school, with 1,500 naked savages near them. The best ranches will decrease in value fully one-half. A letter was recently received at this office from the veteran Indian scout and guide, AL Sieber, which stated that this proposed re- moval was pretty sure to take place. Verify do misfortunes fly in focks, and the last one is by no means the least that has been attempted to be visited upon this section of late. While there may be few people in favor of their coming, on purely mercenary grounds, it will certainly be poor ad- vertisement for this section and will drive most of the men with families from the Verde valley, and will retard the advancement and progress of the whole of Yavapai county.-Courier.

The dining room is in charge of Mrs w. T. Woods, who serves excellent meals to the guests. No better accommodations can be had in any town than those now afforded by this hotel, and that it enjoys big share of the public pat ronage goes without saying.

Wonders of the West.

 the work of MT. Frank Cushing in New Mexico and Arizona is at best imperfectly understood. That it is so is deplorable, inasmuch as few move ments of this kind in America have been of such paramount importance and none more interesting to the stu dents of vanished races. It will doubt less be matter of surprise to many persons to learn that MT. Cushing has been for some time engaged in uncov- ering the traces of an ancient civili- zation. which became extinct more than a thousand years before Colun!-a bus discovered America
 All through Arizona, New Mexico and part of southwestern Colorado are found ruins which show that the extreme western part Of the American continent was inhabited by people learned in architecture, astronomy, civil engineering, cloth weaving, pot tery and agriculture, even before the Aztecs gained footho1d in the an cient valley of the Anahuac. Save for these scattered ruins this race of people have vanished utterly from the face of the earth. Whither they went, on whence they came no man knows, for no written record was left behind to describe their lives or explain their | fate. It Is to wrest from the shifting sands of the far southwest some def- nite knowledge of these people that MT. Gushing is devoting the best years of his life and large sum of money, devoted for this purpose by Boston lady who is interested ill the unravel- ing of this mystery.
 History calls this ancient people the Toltecs. Tradition says that even the Toltecs had predecessors in the Ulmecs, although upon what ground this tra- dition is based has never been made clear. So far as we know the Toltecs came from the country north and west of Arizona, and they migrated from Arizona and New Mexico to old Mexico centuries before history in this country began. They were superced- ed, or followed, in Mexico by the Az tees; whether by the fortunes of war, or other causes is uncertain. Traces of them have been found as far south as Central America, but here tradition itself comes to an end. Observing travellers who have visited Mexico and Central America assert that the Tol- tee ruins in those countries denote a people of Egyptian origin. They can , offer no explanation, however, of the manner in which Cleopatra's country : men could reach the American con.
 
 doubt upon the theory that the Tol tees came to America from Asia by way of Behring strait and the Pacific coast.
 If MT. Cushing shall be fortunate
 enough to add to our imperfect know l ledge of this ancient and remarkable ? race he will have put his time and en !. ergies to good use He has alread, - laid bare remains of extensive irrigat : ing systems, dwelling places and pot : tery of various kinds, which, while ad r ding little to our meagre stock of in 7 formation, are nevertheless valuabl : as giving promise of something bette
 to come. MT. Gushing and his Bostol ., friend should not be left to carry ol
 this work alone and unaided. | these days, when superhuous wealt !, is so common, some of it might wei | be employed in fitting out other e1
 petitions to unravel the tangled hi
 tory of the southwestern deserts.-La
