SENATORS STEWART, Teller and Vol colt have taken the proper stand upon the silver question. All should work for free coinage. A most enthusiastic mass meeting was held in Denver, Dec. 26th. Judge Symes delivered strong and effective speech. He reiterated the fact that the circulating medium of the United States was deficient. This must be lighted at once and raised to the proper amount per capita and kept there in this fast growing country. How can, says the Silver Dollar, the business men of this country be so indifferent and see d decrease in the volume of money which IS the life blood of the nation, and at the same time the population is doub- Ing every twenty or thirty years. In the last twenty years the amount of money has been reduced over S500,000, O00 from s2,O00,OOO,OO0 to S1, 1,50O,0O0G0O. and in the same time the population has increased from 40,OO0,O00 to over 62,0O0,OO0. What more is wanted to ex- plain the cause of the terrible panic we have just had, and the present severe strIngency in money:

THE abandonment of Fit. Lowell has been for some time in contemplation and we are satisfied that nothing in the power of our citizens can avert the inn pending change. The Indian war up north but hastened a measure that had been fully determined upon ever since Grierson took command of the depart ment. Prior to the abandonment of Fort Mcdowell the good people of Phe- nix exhausted themselves in resolutions that for whereases and wherefores would make the veteran resolutors of the old pueblo look scared for their coiors, without turning back so much as one little corner of the fateful order. Fort Verde was next abandoned and Fort Lowell will follow suit though we resolute ourselves thin. But if we can cot hope to retain Lowell as military post we can labor to the end that the reservation be thrown open to settle ment, alse put to other profitable use; but just what that will be cannot yet be determined. However it behooves our citizens to work unitedly to common end. In the event of the ultimate abandonment of tho post we are inclined to the belief that the president will herken to our wishes as to its final dis position

THE artesian well proposition is yet an unsoived problem for Arizona. Other states and territories have tried it and found water, and the same could be done in the arid belts of the great southwest if capital had the courage to make the in- vestment. The Denver RepuIiaan is earn estly calling the attention of the people Of that state to the advantages and possi- biiities of such measure. The people O Santa Fe are rejoicing because an ar'esian well has been sunk near Ros- well, small town In the Pecos valley. This valley lies in the southeastern part of New Mexico, long distance from Santa Fe. The pleasure which the suc- cessful sinking Of the well causes among the Santa Fe people is due to the fact that it Is ID the nature of a confirma- ton of the belief that artesian wells may be sunk iI other parts of the territory. In view of the fact that 1t has been dem onstrated so clearly that artesian water can be procured at various points in Colorado, one might be justified in losing patience with the New Mexico people, who, for the last four or five years have been living in the hope that gome day enough artesian wells will be sunk in their territory to deliver 1t from much of its aridity. The people of Santa Fe have made some experiments but very it l has been done in any part of the terri tory.
 A great many wells of this sort have been sunk in the San Louis valley, and this valley is nothing more than the northern end of the Rio Grande valley. It follows, as a great probability, that artesian water could be procured all the way down the Rio Grande valley from the Colorado line to Fl Paso. Texas There is region lying west of Soccorro called the San Augustine plains. It is during part of the year a splendid graz ing country, and if artesian wells could be successfully sunk there it could be made one of the finest farming countries in the southwest. If the peo- ple of Socorro did their full duty they would test the question as to whether artesian water can be procured there.
 What we have said about experiments in New Mexico is applicable to great many places in other parts of the arid regions. Artesion wells would go long way toward turning barren and desert regions into fruitful fields. The possi- ble results which could be obtained would justify even small communities in raising the money with which to sink the test wells.

A CONTEMPORARY gives the following sketch of the Bad Lands where the pre- sent hostilities are in progress:
 The Bad Lands of Dakota are con- posed of white clay, which by the action of rains has been cut into hillocks. They are not high, seldom more than 40 or fifty feet; but is up one and down another the whole way. You cannot follow the water courses, for their are none; gully forty feet deep, with a foot and half of mud at the bottom, is the nearest approach to a water course in the whole region. At every few yards you must stop and, with spade and shovel, cut path down hill in order to decend, and then up the side of the one opposite in ordsr to get up again The mud is as sticky as tar and Tn going few yards the wheels of wagon be- come solid round cakes and all the mules that you can hitch to 1t will not be able to pull it foot further. Then the spades are brought and the wheeles cleared, the operation being repeated two or three times in hundred yards The extenG of the Bad Lands in Dakota is probably i. hundred miles from north to south by fifteen to thirty miles wide; and If the Indian can tiud better stronghold in this country the plains men wou. d like to hear of it.

An ExarnnIe of Patience.

As man of patience Job was simply a weak imitation of the real thing, says the Western Journalist. If you want an example of bona fide patience and long suffering behold ye gentle and worthy scribe who hath just taken unto himself a weakling newspaper to build up. He feedeth ye slot, so to put it, unceasing- ly, and between his rising and his lying down he laboreth industriously to in- fate his nurseling with goodly growth. He toileth, far into the night and burn eth much oil, or tallow, according to his means, but for all his pains and labor he accomplisheth naught. He looketh and longeth for ye wherewith-all to nurture his weakling and it cometh not, yet he possesseth himself with angelic patience, hoping against hope the while. until the feeble spark goeth out and ye nurseling yieldeth up it's life. Then hieth he himself unto tannery, or some other light and genteel employment, and seeketh a surcease of his woe.

THE Jews in Russia are out of favor with the Tzar. Recently when that high and mighty worthy passed through the CiIy of Kitv, he addressed the local Goyernor-General, Count Ignatieff, tell ing him ito keep Kiev clear of the Jews" This was reported in the Russian Press at the time, without, however, al- luding to the Tzar by name, On the same occasion he was told that the Jews asked for permission to present him "Bread and Salt," which is tbe national Russian mode of welcoming highly esteemed guest. The Tzar is said to have answered this by the sentence, "No bread and salt from Jews" They explained to him that the Jews would like to express to him their feelings of loyaly and devotion. "That is another thing" the Tar replied. "This they may express" It is difficult to compre- bend how people, citizens of this great Republic, can, as some of them do, ex- press sympathy for such a brutal and tyrannical autocrat as the. .Tzar of Russia has proven himself to be.

THE Tombstone Prospector wants arms for the local militia. It says: As there is every indication that the re- moval of troops from this section of Arizona will necessitate at no distant day the calling upon the militia com panies of Southern Arizona to take the field to fill some spasmodic outbreak on the part of the Apaches, it would be we'll to provide them with guns and ammunition.
 The Prospector echOs the sentiment of the entire territory. To withdraw the troops at this period leaves us in an unprotected condition. If the war de- partment understood the situation we think a different policy would be pur- sued.
