Trouble Ahead.
lPheuix Gazette. I


 A petition has been filed with pro bate judge Baxter by Eva May Mar low, asking that letters of administra- tion be granted her, also for an allow ance of $100 per month until the in ventory has been returned The pc tition for allowance was granted and the petition for letters of administra- tion was set for hearing Saturday, May 14th. It is rumored that a will made by MT. Marlow two years ago is in the hands of P K Hickey, where in all of his property is left to his brother in Canada, and that he will be here and contest the right of Mrs. Marlow. The property is valued at $100, 900, principally personal proper ty, among which is some 1000 head of cattle.
 We don't know what the law Is governing such transactions, but a common sense conclusion is that the woman whom he made his wife, who now mourns his demise, is entitled to the property, and we hope the good woman will not be divested of her rights.

Dried Buffalo Tripe.

The other day gentleman from Coldneck district was promenading down Whitehall street, when he spied a string of spongesr hanging up in front of big grocery store. "What is them 'ere!" he asked of Patrol- man Brooks, who was passing.
 That is dried Buffalo tripe, my friend"

 ''Wel, I'll be Juneswoggled if don't try lem one bait" said he, and he walked into the store and purchased the whole string, while the clerks were much mystitied as to what he wanted with So many sronges.

Don't Understand it.
TPhenix Herald.l

What puzzles the raw customer, who has not turned his sandals to ward the Pacific coast, is the fact that gardener and orchardist can sit and eat strawberries and oranges in the month of May, and drink water from the ravines that flows ice cold from the melting snow which lies but few miles above him in the noun tains
 As expressed by one of our finest orators: "On our mountain tops the snows never melt, and in our valleys the perennial rose ever blooms" It will not be many years before the foot hills adjacent to this valley, will be one of the most delightful and pro ductive sections of the southwest.

Cotton in California.

A strong effort is being made by the cotton mills about the bay, says the San Jose Mercury, to induce the farmers of California to go into the business of raising cotton. Seed is offered free in small lots to start the industry, and the profits of the ven- ture are figured out attractively. There is no doubt that it would be 8 good thing for the state for the cotton manufacturing industry to become a success. It would also be advanta- geous to introduce cotton growing upon lands not better employed.
 An inquiry into the market value of land in the south where cotton is produced shows that it sells for $125 an acre. This is the price in Georgia. Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. These are the cotton-growing states of the south. Where is there land in California suitable for cotton culture which can be bought for that figure?
 There is g great deal of country along the San Joaquin valley which would produce fFst-clqss cotton, but which produces equally well fruit and wine. These lands are too valuable to be devoted to cotton culture, and we fear the business pt cotton growing in that state will never become an extensive industry.-Exchange.

 "ExEcUTIvE MANSION, Washingtonl
 May 16, 1890.
 HoN. LEWIS WoLFLEY, Phenix, Ari- zona-My dear Governor The Pres ident desires me to write to you and say that after a full and thorough consideration of the matter between himself and secretary, the appoint ment of Mir Christ as collector at No gales has been determined upon. He has made an exhaustive investigation of the charges affecting his moral character, and he believes them to have been fairly met and disposed of by Mir Christ. He understands and appreciates, of course, the lack of personal harmony between you and Mir. Christ but he has little tolerance for that sort of quarrels, and hopes that the efficiency of the administra- ton of affairs in Arizona will not in any wise be imperilled by reason of this.
 Certainly in your official conduct, if not in your personal relations, it will be a great advantage if the difference between you could be composed, or at least forgotten for the time. The President wanted me to write you about in this way, and to let you know that the appointment had not been made to embarrass you, but on the contrary, that a better state of feeling and better result to the public anC party might obtain from the determin ation he has reached. I am quite certain that Mir Christ himself vii be ready and anxious to meet yol more than half way in having an am icable and satisfactory conduct of pub lie affairs.

The Esperanza. Tucson Star.

Mir w. A. Clark Is in from the Esperanza mine, which he is now de- veloping for the owners. He has eight men now working and has sunk fifty feet and run an incline of forty-two feet during the last month. The air shaft and incline are both being sunk The latter will strike the former at a depth of sixty-five feet, and at eighty five feet the eighty foot level will be reached, where Mir. House, who work ed the mine eight years ago, discover ed large body of low grade ore, some of which was shipped to the Benson shelter The company not being sat istied with the results from the furn- ace, propose to open the mine anew and give the ore a fair test. MT. Clark has his assay office right on the ground and will test the ore as it is taken out. He has great faith in the property. As soon as the body of ore is struck 1t is the intention to put on an addi- tional force of men.

FLORENCE, 4. T., June 5, 1890.

The attempt of General Grierson to throw the murder of Hardie onto the Mexicans is done evidently with "stop thief" play which has been worked so successfully by unprinci- pied military jinks for the past ten years. The Mexicans are rightfully incensed at the repeated killings in their country by Indians from the San Carlos reservation. The fear in military quarters is that Mexico may sooner or later demand the re- moval of the Apaches away from her border, which would cause many mili- tary reservations and fat snaps in our territory to be thrown up. Grerson knows this, and it's policy for him to blame the Mexican authorities for poor Hardie's death.-Prospector.

 W. A. Fiege this week went to Dun can and purchased from the Gebhardt Cattle Company, for Messrs. Hubbard and Morgan, 600 head of two and three-year-old steers. The cattle will be driven to Silver City, and thence shipped to Kansas
 Ed. Drew, foreman of the Sierra Bonita ranch, came in with the herd shipped by that company this week MT. Drew, although a young man, Is one of the best and most careful COW hands in the country, and his efficient work is much appreciated by his em- ployers.
 About 300 of MT. Blacks cattle con fined in the shipping corrals broke down the corral Thursday night, and stampeded. They did not stop run ming until they reached the Alkali lake, several miles west flown, where they scattered A large number of cowboys were after them by daylight and all were regathered but one head Here is another argument in favor oi the building of new, larger and strong CT shipping corrals, and at once.
 Cattle shipments for this week: j I. Carpenter, consigned to F. B. Car penter, Hyner, Kansas, 786 head; E R. Hooker (Sierra Bonita Company, to M w. Stewart, Halifax, Kansas 585 head G F.

formidable proportions that it's sup pression is attended with great loss of life and property. There is letter, which we believe is still in existence, written by General Crook to the alarmed settlers during the early stages of an Indian outbreak, which explicitly stated that it was necessary for some of the settlers to be killed in order that he might display his military ability in subjugating them. This has been the practice If not the policy, of the military authorities in this department, and whether or not it be the spirit of the present apathy it's effect is the same. The oppor- tunity must be created and upon the blood-stained graves of tortured men and outraged women are built the gilded monuments of military fame and prowess. General Grierson de- nies that the recent murder in Rucker canyon was committed by Indians, but the facts prove the contrary; in the meantime the Apache fiends find other victims and devastate the coun- try, and by the time pursuit is or | ganized they are safe in their noun tain strongholds.

 IN our issue of May 24th, we gave to the public the stinging letter of Commissioner Grof to Surveyor Gen eral Johnson of Arizona, upon his unsolicited report upon the Peralta grant. We made no comment thereon at the time for the reason that we wished Co put to the test the discrim
 mating judgment of the people and to obtain their uninfluenced and unbiased opinions upon the subject. The general verdict has classed the letter with that other of Lige Hal ford's to Governor Wolhey-that it were better for the reputa ton Of these gentlemen had both epistles been immediately burned upon their re- ceipt Commissioner Groff suggests that the Surveyor General had about as much business to report upon this dead issue as he had upon the gen eral irrigation of the planet Mars, but this intimation conveyed no news to the Surveyor General. He was well aware of that fact and was equally positive that golden opportunity had presented itself for him to gain the favor of the people by championing their cause that was already decaying in it's lonely tomb. He drew his gilt tering blade over the pulseless corpse and manifested an heroic combat that would have brought him honor had he met it when the glow of robust health was on it's cheek. The in consistency of the earlier and more recent actions of the Surveyor Gen eral upon this question is made all the more conspicuous by the imper- ative command of Commissioner Grofl to take back his report and quit fooling away his time in the boneyard.

''Gregory is awful close," said man to friend.
 s'Yes, but he is not nearly so close as his father was The old man was pretty well off, and he did have a warm affection for dol- lar. He was taken ill once and his physician told him that if he did not go off to the springs he would die. The old man replied: Let me see, I'd have to stay there about two months at an expense of at least a dollar and half per day. I can't stand the cost, doc tor. It would be cheaper to die'' He didn't go, and, after the funeral, the leading people of the neighborhood expressed satisfaction at the result. n-Arkansaw Traveller.

NOT ISOLATED CASES.

To show that the cures made by Joys Vege table Sarsaparilla are not only; not exceptional eases, but that it helps everybody, we cite few instances where two in the same family took it and were both cured.
 Thomas Stephens. of 16s Sixth St., S. F.. took it for weak stomach and dyspepsia, It entirely cured him. He then gave it to his wife for her sick headaches, since which time she has had no return. It cured them botla.
 Mrs R. L. Wheaton, of 7o4 Post St., g. F, waa sufferer from stomach and liyer troubles and billousness Finding that 1t relieved her, she gave it to little girl living with her whose af- niction was large open sore which nothing seemed to heal. It also cured the child.
 If. s. Vim, of Geary Court, Geary st., s. F., prominent in the Order of Red Men, was very feeble and greatly reduced. Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla restored his health and accustomed yigor. He thereupon gave it to his wife who was similarly afflicted and had nervous prostra- tion. It had the same happy effect upon her it had upon him. Scores of similar cases cquld be cited but we have no room for them here

One of the most experienced engin- eers and irrigating canal builders in the United States, has been looking over the irrigating proposition of the Pima Land and Irrigation company, which has its water supply on the Fort Lowell reservation, and he states that for fifty thousand dollars he will agree to take out canal with suftici- ent water to irrigate more than ten thousand acres of the mesa lands to the east and south of Tucson. He states 1t Is the best canal proposition he has ever examined, for when taken in connection with the fact that 1t Is so near Tucson, every inch of the water will be utilized at once, as there are hundreds of people here to re- claim and cultivate the lands as soon as the water is taken out. In many other places where canals have been constructed 1t has been found necess- ary to induce people to go on the lands to reclaim them in order to sell them water, but here the important fact is reversed. The people are here ready to compete for the water, and the consumers of the product of the soil are also here, which will make farming and horticulture immensely profitable. 1t would seem that there is good reason for believing that this company would not hesitate long in pushing the construction of this irri- gating canal.-Citizen.

The Republican party of Arizona is a unit, to-day, on it's political measures and will go forward victoriously in the future. To be sure, it is hamper ed by a little clique of desperate politicians who seek to maintain themselves in office and the people in bondage of 8 Territorial system of government which they propose to dictate. These kickers and bosses may attempt to outrage party polity they will undoubtedly attempt to use the party for selfish purposes, but they will never be able to maintain themselves in the position they have assumed, for an hour, under the fire of the popular vote. They well know this and hence, to-day are eager, ramp ant, rapacious, interruptions ill their measures and bent on the destruction of their party or to bend it's use to their purpose.
