It is pleasing to note the growing sentiment in the east in favor of vi- gorous and unsentimental Indian poli- cy. The Globe Democratic says in speaking of the future policy of the Government toward the red man: -Hc-n -n.ill naaca f cbtinn oplv uhan we put beyond his reach the weapons without which he would not dare to provoke hostilities. This is the plain and important lesson of the present disturbance. The Indians must all be disarmed. not for season, but for ever, no matter how warmly the phil. anthropists may protest againt it, and to this should be added law transfer ring the whole Indian business to the War Department, where it properly belongs.

Wants public Opinion.

A circular letter has been sent out by the Phoenix chamber of commerce which reads as follows:
 "The great Columbian Exposition takes place in Chicago in lS92-93 and promises to be the most stupendous at- fair of the kind in the Worlds history. It is of supreme importance to Arizona that our incompatible resourcesshould be adequately, intelligently and sys- tematically represented at the Worlds Fair. Much time, labor, expense and preparation will be required to accom' plish this object. Recognizing these facts, and that an initiatory movement having in view this end, is necessary, the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce respectfully requests your co-opera- tion in securing such action by the peo- pie as will inaugurate movement which will result in proper represen- ta ton at said exposition. We believe that Territorial convention should be held at an early date to consider this matter, and to take such action as may be necessary to obtain from the Legislature a liberal appropriation for the purposes contemplated. We would be glad to have an expression oi tLe views of yourself and other representa- tive citizens thereon at your earliest
 cnnyenience"

The Apaches who killed the two Americans in Cochise county, few days ago are reported by the Mexican Gendarmarmeria to be in the Sierra Azul, near Imuris, in Sonora. Only six have been seen so far. The Mexi- can troops are after them with good prospects of making "good Indians" of them before long. While no mnr-' ders have been committed by them as far as reported, they are killing cattle and stealing horses. General Scho- field will do we'll to return us some oi the troops he robbed us of some weeks ago, to protect life and property here and in our sister state Sonora, where we value each as highly as he values those in Dakota.-Nogales Record.

How to help your digestion !.

Almost every day we feel the un- pleasant sensations of indigestion. Try Allcock's Porous Plasters and be relieved. J. F. Davenport, of Canar- sic, New York, writes:
 "I have been very much troubled. with violent pain below my chest bone. I was told by several physicians that it wes rheumatism of the dia- phragm. It resulted from cold and exposure. I had very little appetite and digested my food with great diff culty. I placed one Allcock's Porous Plaster below the breast bone and two on each side. In the course of twenty four hours all pain ceased, and was able to eat and digest good square meal, something I had not done before in two weeks. I got better constantly and the end of seven days found my self entirely we'll. Since then l have used Allcock's Porous Plasters fol colds, coughs and pains in my side. and I have always found them quick and effective"
