Trouble is looked for regard ing the roaming of cattle on the San Xavier reservation. Cattlemen say that the fences are none of the best, and easily broken through, and that though many range stock are in the reservation they were not turned in. They expect Agent Der ger to demand $1 head for cattle there and they also expect to dispute the payment of it. Rodoes are now in progress in the reservati tion.-Cit- izen.

Another Man Killed.

News comes from Clifton of an- other Graham county killing last Saturday evening. For the past year Clifton has maintained a good reputation for peace and law and order.
 On Saturday evening LIN. Barnes, commonly known as Curly Bill,' , became involved in a quarrel with Mexican named Manuel Morales and shot him, causing his death in a few moments. We have not been able to ascertain the full particulars. but understand that Morales had been playing monte with Mexican woman who was dealing il game in Hugh Mullen's saloon, and they were quarreling over some money when Barnes canes up and took up the quarrel for the woman, and in the difficulty shot Morales with fla tai effect.
 Justice Schultz, ol Morenci, was at once sent for and he summoned jury and held an inquest After hearing the evidence the jury rem dered a verdict to the effect that the killing was justi6able homicide.
 The justice, however held Bill for a further hearing and sent for Dis irict Attorney Moorman to conduct the examination on behalf of the Territory,
 The man killed was considered to be a tough character and only com pleted a ninety days jail sentence in Solomonville a short time ago, notwithstanding,this we are inform ed that the opinion prevails in Cliff ton that the killing was unjustfable. Graham County Bulletin.

An Underground City.

London, Nov. 7,-An interesting if somewhat doubtful story is al present current that the Russians, ln the course of the series of ex- plorations which are being conduct. ed in Central Asia, have discovered a large number of caves in a chain of rocky hills. On entering these caverns they found to their amaze ment that they were able to pene- trate far into the earth to where, hundreds of years before, a beauti- ful city had been built. But theil surprise was further increased when presently they picked up coin both of gold and silver, from the design and inscriptions on which it became evident that they belonged to a peo- pie who must have lived in the city fully two centuries before the Chris tian era.

G. w. Cheyney in the Nogales Herald says: q am sincerely in fa- vor of statehood for Arizona, as firmly believe that it will improve the material welfare of our country, and in that improvement, I, as one of the community, hope to share. It would be idle to deny an imme- diate increase in taxation but it will be but temporary, and 1 believe the dollars and cents parp of the pro- position can be successfully defend ed, Necessarily, the argument is somewhat in the nature of prophe- cy, but it is one based upon expert ences and result elsewhere, and up- on conditions varying but little from our own.

The New Law.
tian era

It would be we'll for prospectors and others going into Mexico to un- derstand the new tariff law which went into effect November 1st. Among the most important changes is that affecting prospectors and others going into that country with teams, mining implements, etc., who must make application in writing to the secretary of Hacien- da, at the City of Mexico, for per mission, stating just what they wish on the bond. They will not be al- lowed to carry any freight or pas sengers beyond what is expressed in the bond. If they do so they will forfeit their bonds and must pay full duty on their outfits.
 Other travellers can only bond in for eight days, which time can be granted by the administrator at the custom house.
 Parties having teams on which duty has been paid into Mexico, must have pass to bring them out, and if the time given on the pass expires before crossing the line they will be subject to the payment of duties the same as teams going in for the first time.-Tombstone Pros pector.

THE San Francisco Argonaut is authority for the following: Cali fornia, Oregon and Washington are essentially ocean-coast States: with Q coast line equal to that of the States from Maine to Georgia upon the Atlantic. Since the establish ment of the Republic, the Atlantic States have had appropriations from the Government aggregating more than $200,OO0,OO0 for coast defenses, navy yards, improvement of harbors and rivers, lighthouses, Government buildings, and inciden- tai purposes. Since the creation of California as a State in 1850, with Oregon and Washington as impor- tant coast extensions northwardly the total Government appropria- tions for every purpose have not ex- ceeded $25,0OO,OO0. The rapid de- velopment of commerce has ad- vanced this coast to a very impor- tant rank, with the prospect of equaling that of the Atlantic with in the coming half century. The rich traffic of Asia and Australasia and the islands of the Pacific will surely flow mainly to this coast, and this commerce is growing be- yond the calculation of the most sanguine.

Lacey Criticised.

Washington, Noy. 5.-The failure of the Maverick Bank of Boston is causing much annoyance in admin. istration circles. It seems to be within reach of proof that nearly a year ago Bank Examiner Magruder informed Comptroller Lacey of the condition of the bank and urged him to adopt measures to wind up it's affairs. There were strong poli- ticaI influences, however, back of the bank and Lacey ignored the ad- vice of the bank examiner and as a result all the rich depositors got out and the poor fellows who could not afford to lose anything got caught in the trap. Lacey's record as Comptroller of the Currency is very bad. His connection with the Keystone and Spring Garden banks of Philadelphia and now with the Maverick Bank of Boston is the
 subject of very sharp criticism. There is no doubt that the new House of Representatives will make thorough investigation of the Comptroller's office and Lacey's connection with these broken banks.

Every old 2-per cent-a-month money lender in Arizona will most likely oppose the adoption of the new constitution. Why? Because when Arizona become state mon ey witt be plenty and can be bor- rowed for much less than one per cent month. Every man then who has to borrow money should work for the adoption of the consti- tuition and statehood.--Graham Co. Bulletin.

Representative Mckinney of New Hampshire, says that McKinley's narrow margin in Ohio is no better than a defeat, when it is remember ed that it took the whole Republi- can party, including Secretary Eos ter and ex-Speaker Reed, to accom- plish the result. The result in Mas sachusetts Is to him a matter for great joy and he predicts glorious things for the Democrats in New England in the future.

HE opponents ot the constltu- tion, and consequently statehood, are constantly pointing to Nevada and her financial condition in SUD- port in their position, According to the report of Gov. Bell made to the legislature last year, Nevada is not so bad off as reported, on the contrary she is in much better fix financially than Arizona. It costs herless to run her state government than 1t does to run the present gov ernment of Arizona, and her rate of taxation is only $2,05 on the S100, while the average rate in Arizona is $3.2S on the $l00. Gov. Bell says ::
 "The total debt of the State up to January, 1891, was s199,667. .83 :; there is in the State Treasury, ap- plicable to the payment of this debt $215.S49.52, or $15, ,961.69 above all indebtedness. Our university fund has to its credit awaiting it's dispo- sition, S86.000, and in all other res poets is in very prosperous and satisfactory condition. The State School Fund contains $972, 1000 in bonds; S380,000 being five per cent bonds, and the balance four per cents, besides $8S,113.13 in coin, The General School Fund contains cash to the amount of $24, ,2O1.57, total credit of$1 ,O84 ,314.57 which is certainly very creditable show ing"
 The Tucson Star, in supplement commenting on the above, says:
 Here we find little despised Ne vada with a cash balance in her school fund of over one million dol lars, and a surplus in her Treasury of S16,000. Nevada collects from her $23,O00.000 assessment roll, an- nually, $472,650, which dcfrays all her state and county expenses, and leaves a surplus in her State Treas ury, while Arizona collects from her eleven counties annually $908,- 073.S4. Add to this an annual de- felt of $126,000, making an annual expenditure of $1,O34,073.84,which the taxpayers of Arizona are called upon each and every year to pay for the questionable privilege of living under a territorial form of government, while Nevada main- tains her state and county govern ments for S472,650 per annum. In other words, Arizona pays $1,034,- 073.84 annually to support her ter ritory, leaving balance in favor of Nevada's state government of $561,- 422.S4 per annum. Thus Arizona, for the privilege of being terri tory and receiving the beggarly sum of $30,625, which the government expends annually with Us, extracts from the pockets of her taxpayers the enormous sum of $561, ,423.S4.

An exchange says: Don't think of deserting the Democratic party because it is old. It may be a little antique, but the fashion for antique things is becoming all the rage now days. The Democratic party en- joys the renown of being the oldest political party in America, and has the advantage of being both old and modern. It has stood the test of time, while dozens of other poli- tical parties have sprung up, been weighed in the balance of justice, found wanting, and have again passed into oblivion, while the party of Democracy has stood firm.
