 "The system of education adopted for the Indian should conform closely to the public school system, which has been tried and proven successful, for America is what 1t IS to-day largely because of the public schools. It owes to them in large measure the unusual degree of pop ular intelligence, the high sense of nor ality, the independence, self reliance and general prosperity so characteristic of us as people. Such a system cannot fail to do for the Indians what it has done for other people-render them intelli- gent, upright American citizens.
 "lt should never be lost sight of that this work Is but temporary As soon as possible they must take their places as citizens and become sharers of the privi leges and bearers of the burdens of citi- zenship, expecting from the government no more than it gives to any other class, and certainly no less. Those who have become educated in government schools, become citizens, and taken their places in society, must look after their own inter ests, including the education of their own children. The present system is only preparatory and must yield to the system of public schools. It will have done it's best work when it has made itself unnec- essary.
 'The old method has proved itself costly and melancholy failure. We have spent $1,O00O00O0O- including the cost of wars-in caring for the Indians and. we have them still with us, burden, a menace, national disgrace.
 "The new method begun in 1876, and now so well under way, deserves a fair trial, or rather, having already proved it's efficiency, should be pushed forward un- til it has accomplished it's begnign work of redeeming and absorbing into our na- tional life all the aboriginal inhabitants of this country. Experience has shown that it is cheaper to educate an Indian than to kill him, and 1t costs much less to maintain a school than fort. Every In dian boy and girl in school is hostage for the good behavior of the parents The Indians educated in the government schools, under the flag, may be depended upon for service in the fields of industry, or if need be, on the field of battle. Ed ucation is cheap method of converting aliens, enemies and savages into citizens, friends and honorable, intelligent men and women"

An outrage.
willoox stockmau.


 Deputy Marshal J. " Pau on Monday last arrested four citizens ofthis section Captain J. M. Phillips. D. Johnson, W. $. Davis and John II. Thede -on the charge of unlawlully fencing public lands. It seems these gentlemen were indicted in May last by the United States Grand Jury at Tucson, but why the arrests have been delayed until this time is not ex- plained. Messrs Thede and Davis went to Tucson and gave bonds to appear on November 9th to answer to the charge, and Messrs. Phillips and Johnson went there last night for the same purpose. The StOclman is not in the habit of ex- pressing opinions of cases pending in Court, but it will say that it considers these prosecutions an outrage. and especially SO in the cases of Captain Phillips and Mir. Johnson, who each only have few acres fenced at their homes which are located on unsurveyed land for pastures. If such prosecutions as these can be maintained, over half of the stockmen in the Territory living on un- surveyed land are amenable to the law.

A MILLIoNAIREs SON ON A LOCO
 MOTIVE,
He Quarreled with his Father--Vain Search on the Part of His Parents for ten Years---Discovered by His Cousin While Din
 ing in Texan
 Town.

A San Antonio, (Tex.) telegram says There is man running an engine on the San Antonio Division of the Southern Pacific Railway, between this city and Del Rio, whose name is familiar to many people of Indiana. He is no other than Frank Brocaw, who is the son of one of the richest men Terre Haute, Ind, whose wealth Is reckoned in the millions.
 Brocaw is one of the coolest, most un- assuming and most reliable engineers in the service and has hosts of friends in this city, none of whom, however, knew his history until to-day, when most af- fecting incident brought it to light.
 The people of Terre Haute will remem- Der Frank as . dashing society man of that city ten years ago. He drove fast horses and his orders were paid by his father without stint; besides, he had a monthly cash allowance of a large sum.
 Some trouble arose between father and son, the nature of which is unknown, and his son left his home, vowing never to darken the threshold of the parental home Seven years sped swiftly by, and l Franks sister lay on his deathbed De tectives were put upon the trail of her brother All the detective agencies in the country were furnished his descrip- ton and directed to leave no stone un- turned in the effort to find him, but to nc avail. He had been completely swallow ed up in the great world, and his sister | died without seeing him.
 MEETING WITH HIS CCUsING.
 Three more years passed away. 4 i favorite cousin, the wife of an army of fcer, came to Del Rio with her husband who is now in command of the post al that place. To-day they were dining as usual at the Valverde Hotel. A nice | looking young man sat at table neal them. He observed the lady attentive ly.
 Having finishing eating, he passed out through the office and asked the clerk i the lady was not Mrs. Wheeler. Being an answered in the affirmative he added 'She is my cousin" and went on.
 The lady now came out and the clerl asked:
 Do you see that handsome young mar just gong out?"
 Yes"
 'He says he is your cousin
 She turned quickly, observed him more closely. A flood of recollections came over her and she called sharply, Frank ? The man went on as though he didn' hear, but she ran after him and caugh him.
 A pathetic scene followed, in whicl both actors were moved to tears. Tht lady besought him to return to his par ents, who are now old and feeble, but ht remained obdurate and firm in his inten tion to never return. Mrs. Wheeler tele graphed his people at once, and ever. effort will be made to induce him t return to his home.

oouaterfeiting Pacific Coast prunes.

The Boston Advertiser asserts that France is, by imitation, paying our vest ern prunes the highest kind of hattery. That Journal says:
 "All the country knows that the cotton seed yields the most excellent olive oil, especially if it is put up in the right sort of bottles, and properly labeled. There are some also who know that delicious 'Stilton' cheese is manufactured in New York state and sold in England right un- der the noses of the Stilton manufactur- CTS themselves, who never know the diff ference. But the public Is scarcely pre- pared for the information that excellent California prunes grown in France are now in the market. It Is only a year or two that California prunes have been of feled for eastern consumption. But so popular have they become with house. wives that a struggle is going on between California and France for the American market. So warm has become the contest that 1t is alleged the willy Frenchman now sends to us the product of his or chards put up in the most attractive pack ages, which bear all the appearance of l fancy brands of the California article.

Emperor Williams Ambition.
San Francisco Chronicle.

In an interview with the young Elm peror of Germany reported in a Paris journal, he is represented as saying that he would embark in no adventures, but would leave Germany to his son as he had received it, and would spare the Reichstag the horror of another war. He had determined, he said, to complete his qrandfather's work, Germany united and Europe pacifcated," which, he said, was his grand dream and the crown of his am- bition. The socialists, he thought, had been too long treated as savage enemies.
 Possibly Paris newspaper Is not the best source from which to expect a gen. uine expression of the German Emperor's views, but the report referred to certainly accords in very striking degree with his sentiments as they may be gatheed from his recently declared policy. The lapse of the anti-socialist laws, with no attempt on the part of the Government to re- enact them. would indicate a desire to give them chance to be heard, and the Emperor's recent visits to England, Rus sia and Austria are consistent with the idea that he is desirous of cementing peace in Europe.
 LII. Sears in the October number of the North American Review has a very in- beIC6blIS blIC ouOJCCus tOPCdh- ing of socialism and socialists in Germany he says: "In the midst of this the Elm peror of the most paternal Government in Europe--if we except Russia-is taking this huge, uniformed subject into his own hands He has ended the blood and iron rule; he has said again and again that he will make the man great who will aid him in his endeayor to find the just course and keep to it, and will crush him who opposes him; and his government has found it wise to take off what restriction has been in the past put upon the discus sion of the subject. There can be no doubt of the young Emperor's earnest ness."
 The question, then, will be, is the Elm peror strong enough to carry out the lib eral policy to which he seems to be pledged, or will German bureaucracy and the traditions of absolutism prove too powerful for him? It is a very serious question, but one which time alone can an swer. Any rash or false move on the part of the socialist leaders would forfeit all the advantage which they appear to have gained. In the interests of liberty and an extension of popular rights in Germany it is to be hoped that nothing may occur to change the Emperor's mind or to make him believe that the rule of blood and iron" is essential to the safety and pros perity of the nation.

Profits of Orange Growing.
Los Angeles Commercial Bulletin.


 MT. L. T. Graves of this city bought three years ago five acres of full-bearing orange orchard at Riverside, and paid for the same at the rate of $500 per acre, but, owing to the place not having been well taken care of, the first crop only netted him about $100 per acre, Being engaged in business elsewhere, he could not give the place any personal attention. When he found, however, how 1t had been neglected he had the trees properly prun- ed and cleaned up, and the second year he netted about $150 per acre. The third year he kept carefully detailed accounts of the property, and having 1t looked af- ter as well as he could by hired assistants, the crop netted him upward of $500 per acre. Subjoined are the accounts refer red to for the guidance of such as may be interested. MT Graves would not now part with this little property, even for $2500 per acre. The very large benefits realized from occasional crops Of oranges at Riverside, running as high as $500 per acre, MT. Graves attributes to the superior education and intelligence of the resident owners and to their careful cultivation, and has no doubt that elsewhere within the proper limits of the orange belt equally good results could by the same means be realized:

Commendable Foresight.
Tucson Citizen.

Daniel Manning is miner. A few days ago he came to Tucson, and laid in a sup ply of needed clothing, hat, shoes, shirt, etc. During the evening while strolling around taking in the sights. he was invit- ed into a saloon by Jesus Ybarra and G. Estrada, who "set 'em up" a couple of times, after which Manning says that he didn't know nothing" Next morning he found himself minus all clothing ex- cept an undershirt and a pair of pants, its pockets emptied of money, and keys. For two days he has been hunting his robbers, and yesterday with the assistance of the police found the shirt in Bario Libre second hand shop where it had been pawned for two bits. As Ybarra and Estrada pawned the goods they were very soon in jail. This morning the case was brought up, to be held till afternoon for witnesses. Ybarra, alias Catole, is al old time offender, having put in nearly all of his time for the last five years il various Arizona prisons, mostly for steal ing. He has been incarcerated in Yuma Phenix, Florence. Nogales, and Tucson Nothing would suit him better than tC get a six months sentence for his las scrape. as cold weather is coming on an( he is looking for place where he cal stick his head under his wing.

THE DATE PALM.
It VIII Soon be Introduced into Southern
 Arizona.
PheniX Gazette.

H. E. Van Deman, United States Pc molgist at Washington, D. c. in regard to the distribution of the date trees, he lately received from Africa, says the Valley of the Colorado is perhaps the best place, climatically in which to grow the date on this continent. and one colony of the trees will be placed there. Another will be at Phenix, Arizona, and another at Las Cruces, New Mexico. I have no doubt that the date will succeed in the vicinity of Los Angeles, and the experiment station at Pomona will ii some degree serve for that region. There are only six male trees in the whole lot, and it is ab- solutely necessary that there be only six colonies of plants owing to this fact. The scattering of the trees about, one or two or more in place would entirely frus- trate the whole experiment because they would never produce fruit without the pollen from the male trees.
 Experiments in date palm culture in the Salt River Valley have already proven a phenomenal success, as a trip to the Hatch ranch, near Phenix, where the plant has been cultivated for years, will prove.

For the West.
Moberly (Mo.l Monitor.

G. B. Kelly will leave next week for the Monitor Mining and Investment Com pany's placer mines. The machinery for the company passed through this city to- day, via the great Wabash route. Mr. Kel- ley will be accompanied by his wife and master Heber, who will enjoy the mount ain scenery and fresh air for several months at Yuma. Arizona, and Los Ange- les, California. Several other Moberly citizens may go along, of whom due no- tee will be given. Mir. Kelly, after the machinery is started and found to be run ming in apple-pie order will return to the paper-the old Monitor-of which he IS duly proud. During his absence he will receive the daily each day, and will send a letter each week. He proposes to watch the interests of Moberly and the Monitor, although in a far distant land. He will leave good force in charge of the paper who will see that 1t is out on time and filled with the best news.
 One thing you will bear in mind, that MT. Kelly will be here to see to 1t in per son that the city election next spring goes solid1y democratic.

The Dearth of Good Cattle.
National srockman


 It is no strange thing to see these days in market reports, not only here but in other markets, expressions like these: No first-class cattle for sale" Receipts almost wholly of low grade stutfs." The supplies of cattle this year have as rule been heavier than usual-in fact in Chi cago heavier than ever before-and yet the actual number of good cattle has been less than in any year for number of years past. The significance of all this is that unless the proportion of well rip ened cattle is very greatly increased they must improve in value more than any other kind in the next six months; and the shortage in feeding stuffs gives req son for believing that no such increase will take place. Prime fat cattle are not apt to bring extraordinary prices at any time in the near future, but they must, under the circumstances, command before great while more than they have for several seasons.

A Sagacious Dog.
Prescott Journal-Miner.

In June last J. W. Wilson presented his big dog, Roscoe, to D. M. Doe of Flag staff. The animal, which is very intel hgent one, of the St. Bernard breed, ac- cepted the transfer gracefully and re- mained during the summer months, seem ing to enjoy the Flagstaff summer clim- ate When he came out of his kennel the other morning and saw the San Fran cisco mountains covered with snow on the 9th of October he concluded it was lit tie too arctic for him, and struck out for the warmer climate of Prescott, arriving here on Tuesday evening, October 7th. To show the sagaeity of the animal, he was taken to Flagstaff four months ago on the cars, and in returning must have made the trip direct across the country.

A Northern Railroad.
Gazette

Mr. Masten has completed arrange ments with Bullock of the Prescott and Arizona Central railroad, and they now propose to build a north and south rail road between Phenix and Prescott, and we understand that every thing Is in ~eadiness to begin to work in few weeks. We have always consistently opposed Masten's building this line, thinking that MT. Reynolds and his friends would con- struct the line, but if these men mean business and will give us an outlet for our valley products, and give our peo- pie such rates as will justify them cul- tivating their acres, we are heartily in favor of the proposition. All the people of this valley desire, is a northern line of railroad, one that will give them such rates as will permit them to tilftheir farms with some degree of satisfaction, to such road we proffer our friendship and assistance.
 Personal feeling are not to be consider ed where this valley is at a stake, and we hope that the gentlemen mentioned will bring up and ascend the hills ot Yavapai.

Arizona Cattle.
Yuma Sentinel.

The fact that nearly every express train from the west brings in one or more cat tie buyers from California speaks vol umes for the cattle growers of Arizona.
 No better grass fed beef ever went into market than that which is being shipped to Los Angeles and other points in Cali fornia. Grass and water are abundant and all of the cattle on the thousands hills are fat.
 Our cattle men are selling off their fat steers, so as to reduce the stock on hand. as well as to prepare for the increase of their herds. The coming seasons promise to be the best in the history of cattle rais- ing in Arizona.
