Keller, who has a ranch below the line, about three weeks ago sold band of 1, 100 sheep to Cummings, the butcher, and the Erie cattle company. Tie former took 700 of them and the latter 400, The GUS tom house authorities said they had been inspected and duty paid, but upon investigation it was proved that only a portion of them had been passed through satisfactorily and the whole band was seized and have been in charge of the United States Marshal ever since. He will sell them as confiscated property and somebody will have a chance to buy them.-Tombstone Prospec- tor

Wood in Tucson is now bringing six dollars cord, a higher price than has been known here for years. Even at this rate it is hard to find, and "litilero" greets the ears of the vender of that commodity before he is fairly into town. He is who'll ly unmerciful to victims and pro- testation of the loftiness of his prices are unaYaiiing, knowing as he does that his heat producer is the scarcest article in this city and that he can name his price. The high prices are due to the lack of teams to haul it, as nearly all the available hauling power has been put to freighting-Citizen.

Night before last, about il o'clock, as Councilman Council wended his way home and was about to pass the vacant lots north of his place, an animal about the size of a large bear stepped on the sidewalk a short distance ahead of him. Thinking it 8 trespassing heiler, the councilman give city pound whoop, when the animal fled up the sidewalk, which shook under it's weight, while, instead of the hoof beats of the supposed heifer, the unmistakable scraping chatter of heavy claws could be distinctly heard. Mir, Councils two dogs, eyer ready to vociferously bark at any ordinary animal, fled in silence, and could hardly be induced to leave thier place of hiding. The councilman is at a loss to know what description of beast 1t was, but thinks it might have been stray bear that had lost his reckon ing.-Courier

TIE Durango (Col. ) Herald says : The excitement continues to grow regarding the placers and other mineral wealth in the Sierra Car rizos. That there is immense wealth in these mountains is positive. It is equally certain that these noun tains are on the Navajo reservation at the northern end and on the un- used portion, but still on the reser- vation. The distance from Duran go is, by the wagon road to Farm ington, fifty miles, and thence to the Carrizo mountains, twenty-five miles. The kio Grandc Southern railway is now making grade sur vey straight toward the country. It is now impossible to keep par ties from going in. The whole Uni tel States army could not protect  these mountains now that it is known to a certainty that gold ex- ists. It will be the Black Hills oyer again and as utter a failure on the part of the government to main tain titles where paying minerals are found. Better much for the general government to arrive at the conclusion at once to treat with the Indians. Probably it will require the sacrifice of many lives and much property to do this, The gold is there and the gold will be had in spite of all obstacles.

Many of our cattlemen are very much inconvenienced for want of stock cars in which to ship their cattle. They are urging the A.&.P. railroad company for cars. but the business has increased to such an extent within the past few months that the company's motive power IS run to its utmost capacity, and mnch freight is delayed to such an extent as the inconvenience our merchants in receiving their goods.

Trouble Among Whites.

The whites in control at San Car los have had a quarrel which may not be ended yet, and until further developments are made the follow ing from the Valley Bulletin will prove interesting reading, as those connected with the white outbreak are so we'll known all over Ariz ona where Apaches have set foot:
 "The store of Indian trader E. ". Kingsbury has been closed by Agent Bulls:
 Al. Seiber, the veteran scout, has been discharged and is now in Globe.
 The cause of Kingsbury's trouble and the dismissal of Seiber are given as follows: Agent Bullis has for some time known that whiskey was being smuggled on the reserva- ton and had spotted a negro sol dier as the one who was receiving it. He went to Kingsbury's store, where the stage office is also kept, and found box addressed to the negro suspicioned of the crooked whisky work. He asked Mr. Kings bury to hold the box until the ne- gro inquired for it, and then notify him. The next day Mir. Kingsbury was called to Bowie on business connected with his mining interests there. While he was away the ne- gro, who had evidently scented trouble, called at the stage office and asked that the box be sent on to a man in Globe, which was done. This action was construed by Agent Bulls as contrivance of Kingsbury or rather his clerk, to assist the negro to escape the dis cipline and consequences of snug gling whisky to the Indians. Just what Seiber had to with the matter was not stated by our informant, but his dismissal was on account of this transaction, so the natural inference wonld be that the clerk got permission from Seiber to for ward the box to Globe. This how ever, is only speculative, and the cause of Seiber's discharge may have been something else.
 Further, it is learned that Lieut.. Watson, who has proven himself to be the best officer ever stationed at San Carlos, interfered in Seiber's behalf and telegraphed to head quarters, over the head of the com manding officers at San Carlos ask ing that Seiber be retained. For this Watson was placed under ar rest"

FIVE indictments for libel are standing against Ed. s. Gill, who is said to be editor of the Phoenix Re- publican. Four of them are for Iibeling Ex-Governor Zulick, the other for libeling Ex-Chiei Justice Wright. Believing Gill to be tool in the hands of other fellows, we are sorry that they, too, are not in it.-Prescott Courier.
 The Republican, at the time it was publishing the scandalous arti- cIes about the two gentlemen named above, challenged them to com mence action against the paper and it would prove every charge made. It appears now that 1t will have an opportunity to do so, and the HER ALD predicts it will most signally fail. It will, however, prove a val uable, even if it be q costly lesson to Mr. Gill. It will teach him in the future to be certain that those furnishing him information derog- tory to others, whether as an off cial or a private citizen, are them selves responsible, and that they are not imposing on a comparative stranger for the qualification of their own base designs.

The people of this Territory as
 we'll as Arizona, can thank a Dem
 ocratic President and administra- ton for removing the hostile Apache8 from their borders. For years, before the Democrats went into power these Indians were mas sacreing people on every hand, yet the Republicans paid no attention to the demands of the citizens ot these Territories. When Cleveland was elected president he not only heed ed their demands, but ordered the removal of the hostile Indians from this section of the country. Shortly after President Harrison's inauguration he wanted to have the Apaches brought back and turned loose to continue their wholesale butchery of human souls, and he would have done SD only for the fact that the strongest kind of pro- tests were sent to him urging him not to carry his wish into effect.

Points in the Message.

always contains q number of inter esting points, and the present one is no exception to the rule.
 It is interesting to know, for in- stance, that MT. Harrison is think ing of making an attempt to secure an international agreement for the free coinage of silver. That is something he has never thought of before, and nothing but the immi- nent pressure of an independent free coinage bIll would have driven him to it. His opposition to such a bill is plainly indicated in his pro- test against "impulsive legislation in the supposed interest of silver" "
 The President springs upon the country the information that Min ister Mizner's conduct in the Bar rundia case is disavowed, and that the Minister has been recalled. Mir. Mizner might reasonably have ask ed that his disgrace should be con- summated in some less ostentatious way.
 IL is curious example of the  reckless haste with which the Me Kinley bill was rushed through Congress that the President is ob- liged to call the attention of the law makers to the fact that they mad vertenly imposed duties upon Hawaiian goods in violation of the reciprocity treaty, thus laying the Uuited States open to a charge of bad faith.
 It will please Californiars to learn that negotiations are on foot with Mexico and Great Britain to regulate the passage of Chinese across our northern and southern frontiers. If some way can be found of stopping these leaks there will be a possibility of making exclusion effective.
 We are informed that the Beh- ring sea difficulty has not yet been settled and is not even in the way of settlement, but it is sincerely hoped" by the Administration that something will be done about it be- fore the beginning of another seal ing season. We hope so too, since fit is left open any longer there will be no sealing question to set tie; but as long as the Administra- tion leaves the poachers to do as they please it is hard to see what object England has in worrying about if.
 The present message is note worthy as being the first indication that the element in power at Wash ington thinks it possible that pen sion expenditures may be carried too far. Nr. Harrison expresses the opinion that the ''liberal en- largement ofthe pension aw"adopt- ed atthe last session should suggest a more careful scrutiny of bills for special relief. and also to the cases to which relief is granted, and as to the amount allowed" It may be well to remind him of the fact that his predecessor used to give that careful scrutiny" to special pen sion bills, and vetoed the unworthy ones, for which he was scandalously abused. Mir. Harrison has carefully avoided any similar discomfort. - Examiner.
