How we'll we have succeeded the files

We have always cndcavored to state
facts as they actually existed without
fear or favor. We have criticised the
actions Of certain county officials and
their demagogac friends, and thereby
incurred their hostility. Every par
ticlc OF the opposition which We meet

directly to this fact; and yet VIC feel

The first religious services at tne
Hills were conducted by the Rev. MI
d. Chapin who preached in Mr.. Bar
rett's house ON the 9th of May, 1880,
and organized a Sunday School after
the preaching service; which was regu-
larry kept up until October Of that
year Nothing more was done with
the Sunday School until the fall of 49,
81 when it was re-organized and has
held regular sessions from that time
to this.
While in one sense the colonists
around the Springs were prosperous
during this year, they yet had some
unpleasant experience in regard to
parties visiting them between dark
and daylight with no just conception
Of the rights of MEUM EFT TEUAI; in the
Fall OF 1879 z. II. Barrett lost two pigs;
in March 1850 COW was taken belong
ing toa Mr. Hewitt and on the 9th of
May two horses were stolen from Mr..
p. r. Barrett. In the fall of this year
the houses of Messrs. McCarter, Strong
and Tucker were burned together
with their contents (except such por-
tions as were carried Off while the
parties themselves were absent from
home.
The year 1881 brought an additional
number of settlers, J. W.. Thomas To-
eating east of the Springs in May of
that year. JIG. Campbell, w. F. and
e. Smart located the latter part Of May;
Alden Brown and A. B. Smart came
in July; Mrs. Riddle filed on her claim
iii June and took up her residence IN
the fall; Mr.. Geo. Wallace bought the
Nicholson claim in June; 9. w. P.
Osgood and d. w. Shryock came in
August; IL. Blowers and r. s. and w.
l. Batenan and Will Crawford came
in September.
/ Mrs. DR.. N. G. Weems came in Feb
ruary 1882, and during the early spring
months L. T. Toff1emire, G. d. Brown,
II. j. Wallace, G. W. Mcdonald, j.
Scott. b. i. Wiley, John Chapman,
Gee. Il. Bateman. and e. L. Hall set
tied in the immediate neighborhood
of the Springs.
Tho FIRST ~. E. Church of Wessiag-
ton Springs was organized March 3Oth,
1882 and articles of incorporation
adopted April 9Th, 1882.
The Big Springs property having
been purchased Ly Dr. G. s. Burr, now
Of Mitchell and an interest therein
sold to Mr.. D. A. Scott. a townsige was
plated on the N e. quarter.of sec. ! 81,
1o7-65 IN the spring Of 1852. TBurp
afterwards sold one-half Of his interest
to Chas. Bourne of Boston and Scott
sold one-ha!f interest to Peter Barrett,
thus making the firm of Burr, Scott,

STARVING FOR WATER.
Four Thousand Head of Mad Cattle
Tucson Sta

lutsOH sur
 A. l.. Cox, who IS in the city from Fresnal, a gust at the Palace hotel, is one of Sonoma county's (California) stalwart republicans, but withal and having this defect, Is man of yeracity and free from congregations, as the following story. told to a Star reporter, will show. He said:
 II have just come from Fresnal, where I have been engaged for some months running steam pump to water cattle. A few days ago, If you'll remember, It became very dry, and we had no rain for months; every hole, tanque and charco became as dry as powder house, and all the water to be had in that entire section of country was that obtained at the , Fresnal pump There are 1000 head of cattle at the Fresnal and all those became thirsty at the same time, and they all congregated at the pump for water pumped and pumped, and kept the thing going night and day, and still the water was not sufficient to quench the thirst oi that number of cattle.
 .Ihey kept crowding up until that i'm mense herd had the pump surrounded and then 1 was in the midst of them four thousand "green-eyed monsters "bel | lOMlHS IOl NdbtIs OuCll d SlSub uOu want to see again. Some of them would come up to within two feet of me, look me in the eye, shake their horns and mak ing loud, below, and dismal continued sound, would pass on towards the tanks Well, was 1 reminded in the midst of al this, when Dryden said: And rocks tht believing voice of boiling seas rebound. But in this case it was the scarcity o water the believing voice of thirsty cattl rebound l never want to be caught il such predicament again. Fortunately in day or so the rain came and the wa ter holes and the "charcos" were agail filled.
 "Then we had another job, and it wa with great difficulty that the cattle wer driven to water-they could not smel water anywhere else but around the pump and hence they refused to move. Afte working with them for two whole days W started them off towards the large "char co' and when within half mile of tn place they all started on run Reach ing the charco' they filled themselves uE and peace again reigned on that Rancho.
