ARIZONA'S NEEDS.
They Are Set Forth by Acting
Governor Murphy.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2.-The affairs of
the territory of Arizona during the fis-
cal year just closed are detailed in a re-
port made to the secretary of the in
terror by N. o. Murphy, the acting gov
ernor. He states that he is unofficially
informed that the recent census shows
the population of the territory is $1,000.
exclusive of Indians and military reser-
yations, and with those who live on
reservations (not Indians) the popula-
tion OF the territory will exceed $4,000.
The gain in ten years is 1860. The
mining lnduStre, the report states, is
in a more healthy condition ever.
but great attention is being
paid to agriculture, owing to
the astonishing productiveness of the
lands. Owing to the restrictive legiSla-
tion in Idaho and the probability of SIM
liar action in Utah, the acting governor
thinks that the immigration of Mormons
TO Arizona will increase. The number
OF MormonS now in the territory is eSti-
mated at One-ffth of the population.
Ihe report states that unless restrictive
measures are adopted the territory will
become Mormonized and occasion con-
troversies to such ali extent as to seri-
Ously disturb society and the affairs of
SpFeTHnenU dl0 prejudice the LeTfl-
tory'S chances for statehood. he there
fore recommends that congress grant
the same protection to Arizona as is Ell
joyed by Idaho, and that the Idaho test
oath be made applicable to Arizona.
The report says that Arizona has
quite sprinkling of Mexicans
among her people. The majority
of them have become naturaiized
citizens and are in sympathy with
American laws and customs. There are
few Chinese in the territory as COM
pared with the Pacific coast states, and
as yet they cut no figure as disturbing
element, although they are very objec-
tionabie as class, and their exclusion
is as much desired in Arizona as else
where. The acting governor recon-
mends that an enabling act for the ad-
mission of Arizona in the Union be
passed by congress; that all public lands
within the territory be donated to it;
that all school lands be donated to the
territory for school purposes; that the
San Carlos Apaches be removed from
the territory and the reservation be
opened for settlement; that the salaries
of the present judges in Arizona be in
creased to 1000 per year, and that the
pay of the legislators be increased to

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. 2.-Judge
Sawyer. of New York, on behalf of the
majority of the committee that has been
investigating the administration of af-
fairs in the pension Office, under the
Cooper resolution, stated tonight to a
reporter that he learned with surprise
that the minority report of the investi-
CATION had been given out. He was
surprised, because it was well under
stood by the committee that the evi-
dence was not all in and the investiga-
ton was not closed. Taking up the
I by one, Judge Sawyer said there was
not one of the statements that
he believed was borne out by the
evidence, incomplete though it was. As
to the list of stockholders, the proof
showed that Mr.. Smyser subscribed
alone for the stock, and that the others
interested with him made no subscrlp-
ton. With regard to Bradley Tanner,
Commissioner Raum's private secretary,
the evidence showed that at the outside
he had only written four or five letters
OH the refrigerator cOmpany's business
in the pension Office during Office hours.
His association with the District of Col
umbia branch company was purely
nominal, his interest in it being only
one share, for which he had not paid
cent, and the company itself had not
yet been brought into active existence.
Mr.. Tanners promotion was shown by
the testimony to have been In fulfill
ment of promise to Commissioner
Raum'S predecessor, and had no con-
nectiOn with this business. With this
exception there was no evidence to
show that anybody employed in the
pension Office was directly or Indirectly
the owner of any stock in the re-
frigerator company. The proof in the
contrary is directly the other way. The
majority had carefully analyzed the
testimony with regard to favoritism to
sion from the testimony of Assistant
Commissioner Lincoln. the files clerk
and all the chief of divisions, as well as
from their personal knowledge of the
manner in which public business must
be conducted in an Office of such mag
nitude as this, that fayoritism was inn
possible. As matter of fact, there had
been an absolute failure to show sin
gle case of fayoritiSm. The majority of
the committee earnestly approved or
ders 149 and Isl establishing the COM
pleted files system. They found that,
under the operation of this system,
larger number of cases had been dis
posed of than ever before, and fewer
complaints had been received from
claimants and their attorneys. They
found that there was no evidence, not
the slightest, to show that the commits
sioi1er had ever failed to give the time
and attention to his duties which should
be expected. and that none of the busi-
ness houEs ID hiS office had been de-

Copies Of the New Tariff Sent to
Collectors.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The treasury
department this morning mailed certi-
fed copy of the new tariff law to every
collector of customs and internal rev.
enue in the United States. The new
law goes into effect on Oct. 6. In this
connection an interesting point has
been raised at the treasury department
which will probably be brought before
the secretary for decision. The point
in question arises from the delinquency
of the mail service to deliver the tariff
law to the collector at San Francisco
and other points where it is an
impossibility for mail sent out to-
day to be delivered on the 9th
instant. AS the old law goes out of
operation on that date, the question has
arisen whether goods arriving at San
francisco and other points before the
new law has been received by the col
lector, are dutiable under the old or
properly come under law which the
collector of customs has never read and
officially knows nothing of. A promi-
nent treasury official, speaking of the
matter to-day, expressed the opinion
that the goods might be assessed under
the old law and reliQuidated under the
new law when it is received. He said,
however, that it was not obligatory
upon the collector to have certified
copy of the law before him, and that in
the event of uncertainty as to the as
Sessment of certain goods, he could tele-
graph the treasury department for their
proper classification

WAR AGAINST THE KNIGHTS.
The New York Central Makes a
Bad Break.

Bad Break.
New YORK, Oct. 2.-The New York
Central officials have decided that no
more Knights of Labor shall be eul-
ployed on the road, and to-day Vice
President Webb issued a circular d.
recting the heads of the various depart
ments to make their decision known.
The circular is addressed to the general
manager, general superintendent, chief
engineer and superintendent of motive
power and rolling stock, and says:
1.-The recent strike and acts of lawless-
ness committed in connection there
with, the published correspondence be-
tween the leaders of the organization
that ordered it, and the fact that many
men now seeking unemployment state
that they quit work from fear of per-
sonal violence, and did not dare to offer
to resume work for the same reason,
compel the management of the company
to announce that it objects to its en-
ployes being members of the organiZa-
ton known as knights of Labor" The
management, satisfied that membership
in this particular organization is incon-
sistent with faithful and efficient service
to the company, and liable at any time
to prevent it from properly dIscharging
its duties to the public. You will at
once take such action as will bring this
circular to the attention of the employees
in your respective departments. Gen
eral Superintendent Voorhees, said to-
day that the circular means precisely
what it says; knights must either give
up their membership in the order or
leave the road.

Houston. Minn., Oct. 2.-The "Mer

DEPOsED A DESPOT.
Manipurites Give Their Maharo-
iah His Congo.

LONDON. Oct. 2.-The revolution in
the protected state of Manipur, in
Northeastern India, has 10 significance
beyond local discomfort. The deposed
maharojah has made himself obnoxious
byextrayagance and excessive exactions.
and his ambitious brother found no
difficult in organizing a successful
conspiracy for his overthrow. English
rule in India is prosperous and well
established, and the natives appear
conteBted, although there is a strong
agitation going on for a native Indian
parliament in which both states and
people shall be represented. Another
movement that is being power
fully urged by intelligent Hin
marriage laws. Females are married in
infancy, and their husbands take them
home while they are yet children. Great
strength has been added to the agita-
ton for reform by recent occurrence
in Calcutta. A Hindoo. whose daughter
had been married when she was babe
four months old, objected strenu-
ously. when the husband came
to claim her at the age of ten
years. The husband summoned the
native police to his assistance and the
girl was borne away. shrieking for help,
while her father lay senseless on the
threshold. No one dared to aid the
wretched girl, for the husband had ma
tive custom and English on his side.
The following day the girl bride was
dead, victim of the inhuman husband.
The latter was arrested on a charge
of murder. but nothing could
be proved against him. and
l1sa ff,n I Il
India, and everywhere educated Hin
docs are joining in a demand for the
repeal of the barbarous law which per-
mits such outrages. 1t is now sixty
years since the burning of widows with
their dead husbands was abolished in
India, but much more remains to be
accomplished to redeem women from
their degraded condition.

and Merrlan'S 119S, which is sufficient
to show the fluctuations of which this
cOunty'S vote is susceptible, even with
out the tremendous under current of
sentiment row busily operating. This
estimate gives Owen plurality of 200
in the county. and gives Merriam lead
of 500 over Wilson. which is more than
any conservative Democrat of the coun-
ty is willing to concede. Still. cut this
out for reference and observe how facts
bear out indications. have given this
Otter Tail review of this length for two
reasons; first, because Otter Tail is the
Alliance cradle of the Fifth district, and
is now more closely scanned than any
other county: and second, what is true
of Otter Tail is true of other large Nor
wegian counties, notably Douglass,
Grant, Polk and Norman.
Judge Wilson's Campaign
Opening was most auspicious one.
His speech was almost entirely devoted
to the railroad question, and if Joel P.
Heatwole conld have heard the COM
ments of the audience, very largely Re-
publican, he would have been sorry he
published that cowardly misrepresenta-
ton of Wilson's speech of acceptance,
and still more sorry that he flooded the
state with circulars reiterating the same
matter. For, taking that as text,
Judge Wilson exhibited his own anti
monopoly record, and then contrasted it
with that of Gov. Merriam. The feel
ing in this county was never made more
apparent than in the Republican ap-
plauSe which greeted this Merriam eX-
pose. Judge Wilson's lucid explanation
of the railroad steals contained in the
famous and infamous house file 157, and
his lnciSive denunciation of Speaker
Merriam's course in signing that
bill, also struck responsive
chord and ELECTED salvos of applause.
To those familiar with the next gov
ernor's familiar and captivating style of
campaigning, nothing need be said, but
to others it would have been rare treat
to observe the effective style in which
he made center shots and home drives,
singing out for instance (and quite by
accident) prominent man to illustrate
how rich men defraud the assessor and
shoulder their taxes on the poor. 1t de-
veloped later that the individual thus
happily selected by the orator was a
prominent Fergus Falls Republican,
who has won notoriety in that self-same
way. While the actual point of the ad-
dress was good, Judge Wilson himself
| must have been surprised at the con-
tinued rumors of laughter and applause.
He had driven the nail home.
Otter Tail will give good account of
herself. Republicanism may not be
doomed here, but it is certainly under
the ban for the year Of grace, 1890.

owed it to his employers not to notice
this, and got the senatorship as only
Part of the Reward.

He is now making flying trips every
few days to New York to enlist the
Northern Pacific railway in his behalf.
Yes, Pierce is working for reelection,
but his scheme is to have the senator
chosen in New York instead of by the
legislature. So deep is the disgust with
his pandering to the corporate interests
that it is no wonder the North Dakota
legislature of 1891 will have more than
twice as many Democrats as it had in
the last legislature. Pierce, the rail-
roads and the Mckinley bill are doing
their work in North Dakota. OF course
Democrat cannot yet be elected to the
United States senatorship. 1t is doubt
full if one can be found in the state who
cares to make vigorous attempt with
the present odds against him, but the
time is surely coming when North Da-
kota can point with pride to Democrats
In the national congress, and that
time is not far distant, judging
from the present condition of affairs.
Capt. Mccormack, of Grand Forks, is a
l senatorial timber. but can't be induced
to enter the race because of reasons best
known to himself. Capt. Maratta is
another leading member of the party,
and better fitted man for the place
could not be found in the state. W. n.
Roach, Judge Bennett, or score of
other prominently mentioned Demo
Gratis would be most acceptable men for
the welfare of the state, but the trouble
is, under the present condition of affairs
politically, Republican will probably
draw the prize for while yet, but
the Democratic gains throughout the
state warrant the prediction that the
ebb of the Republican tide has been
reached, already reaction has began, and
soon
A Democratic Tide
will sweep across the state and obliter-
ate therefrom all the vile culumny
thrust upon it by Republican corrup-
tionists. That Col. John D. Benton will
be North Dakota's next congressman is
foregone conclusion. This seems
wonderful statement to make, i. e., that
Il, 900 Republican majority, but that it
will be done is just as certain as it is
that the Republican committee allow
M. N. Johnson to stay in the race until
the November election. Johnson's
speecf1-making alone Is the best posi-
BILE assurance of this, and stamps
him as an ignorant, arro-
giant, egotistic ass, entirely unfit
to represent the people OF this great
commonwealth, and if allowed to would
bring disgrace and dishonor upon the
state at large. Gen. Allen has returned
to the state, and may fairly be assumed
to be in the swim for the senate The
fact that he denies it makes the preba-
bility all the stronger that he will land
somewhere in the ring on both feet.
Hansbrough will return during the
week, and it is an open secret that he
feels keenly his defeat, and many of his
friends blame Pierce rather than john
son for it, and the breach between him
and Pierce is widening every day. He
feels that Pierce's friends jump on to
him on every possible occasion. Several
attacks have recently been published in
the Washington Post. Mrs. Florence
HuntleY, warm friend of the senator,
is writer on the Post.

AMERICA sHAMEs ENGLAND.
Reversal of the Rule That Charity

LONDON, Oct. 2.-The Daily News,
referring to the movement that has
been started in the United States in aid
of the Irish people, says: Every true
Englishman honors the liberal-hearted
men of America. But every true
Englishman must feel ashamed of his
own government, which is only offering
Ireland coercion, while strangers are
offering her bread" The ST. James
Gazette to-day prints an article COM
mentiug in a sneering manner upon the
movement in America to establish a
fund for the relief of famine sufferers
in Ireland. 1t says that the move
ment is simply a dodge to secure
the Irish vote. The Pail Mall
Gazette rebukes the Times for its
articles denying that the condition of
affairs in Ireland is such as to warrant
apprehensions of a scarcity of food.
The Gazette asks: docs Jackson's
airy scamper. Balfour's placid absence
from ireland, or the eager skepticism of
the Times prove that there is no famipe
in Ireland?' The Star says: america
shames US. The establishment of a
British fund to relieve the distress in

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The capitol to-

seers were in the corridors, and in the
rotUnda small army of scrubbers was
engaged IN the task of effacing from the

scrap of news would repay them for
their visit. But everything was dead.
In the senate chamber not senator ap-
peared, and only the merry voices of
the page boys were heard as they pre-
pared the files Of the Record, etc.,
for binding. Mr.. Owens, of Ohio,
was the only member in the house.
He sat in a cloud of dust raised by the
men engaged in sweeping the hall, at
tending to his correspondence. In the
committee rooms the clerks were busily
employed in attending TO the business
of the chairmen, franking documents
and answering letters. But an air of
''fall house-cleaning" pervaded every
nook and corner of the huge building.
