The Prosldent's Flag.

About the year 1873 proposition was
made to have . national standard. or
presidents flag. to be hoisted over the
halls Of congress, at the navy yards and
arsenals, and at other public places WIS.,
tied by the president. Although the
design had upon It all the features rep
resenting the nation. it was not
adopted. The idea Of such flag WA
rejected, upon the idea that it pertained
too much to the customs Of monarch
ical nations. A presidents flag has,
however, since been adopted, to signify
his official presence on important and
ceremonial occasions. This flag is Of
blue, with the United States coat-of-
arms upon it.

TUE WATER QUESTION.

Those who oppose the adoption of She constitution bec0us9 of the article on water and water ri9hts arc reminded by the Phoenix Herald that the present condition of our water system is no better than the one proposed Selo- knoxville Bulletin.
 The Constitutional Convention should have left tho subject of water, and water righis alone, oxceps to empower the legislature to pass appropriate laws regulating it's uso.
 From the organization of the Terri tory, to the present time, we have had on the statutes all the law necessary ou tho subject of water It is contained in Sec. % of the Bill O: Rights, and i, as follows; "All streams, lakes and ponds of water capable of being use5 for the purposes of navigation or irri gation, are hereby declared to bc pub tic property; and no individual or cor Poratior shall have the right to appro priate them exclusively to their owr private use, except under such equita ole regulations and restrictions as tn, legislature shall provide for that pur pose.
 The old acequia law was brought 1T force by tho adoption of the Howcl Code, in 1861, and mas remained un changed ever since. The legislature passed this law in accordance with th, idea expressed in the Bill of Rights Many vested interests have been ac 4uirea under it, and cannot now bC changed.
 No amount oi buncombc put in [ State constitution, can affect the rightt Of persons already acquired, to the us, of the waters mentioned in the Bill O Rights Persons who have appropu ated water, and used tho same to re claim the arid lands of Arizona, art secured ID their rights under the pro visions of tho Federal Constitution Private property cannot be taken foi public use without just compensation. The right to the use of water, is prop orty, in the highest sense of the term and cannot be taken away from 1t. owner, any easier than can the family homestead.

A Les Angeles dispatch, in the Pho, nix Republican, gives the views of Dr. ?. G Cotter, of Yuma, in regard to the Salton lake. He believes it will be q permanent body of water /; it Is cstima, ted that nine.tenths of the water of tha Colorado river now runs into Salton and that eventually all will empty into ths basin and find nn outlet through the channe! of New river into the Gulf.
 From the point where the Colorado leaves its bed, fourteen miles below Yums. the descent into Salton basin is 400 feet, and this precipit1te fall causes the channel to SCOUT badly, deepening it and insuring it's permmency The Colorado is depositing its sediment ia the old bed of the river, just below the break, forming bar which will soon divert the entire flow into the channel emptyiag into Salton.
 The people of Yuma, the doctor says, are glad of tho change. and the Lew see will be benefit to the climate, as well as provide them with means of new method of transportation, es vessel, csn come into the sea from the Gulf of California.

The obituary pronounced by Presi- dent w. A. Rowe, of the constitutional convention, upon the closing of "our deliberations" was so historically i'm, bued with swelling and well rounded sentences as to cause "a thrill of patri. otic enthusiasm at the very idea of hay. ing completed the first step towards placing the emblem of sovereignty upon the azure field of our country s flag In winding up he ''fondly hoped that our star will prove not the least brilliant of all the many bright stars which make glorious our national existence
 The following from a person who was present on that occasion and opened wide his ears, but didn't thrill, and in anticipation that "out star" will prove the least brilliant "of all the many bright stars upon the azure field of our cJan.ry's hsg, which makes glorious our national existence, write, to his mother in Kansas. that 'in the event of this Territory becoming q State, with our prospective taxes and Territorial debts already incurred Ari, 2onans will be more greatly cramped than now, and for that reason, dear mother, have to ask that, after you have sold your wheat, to send me q hundred dollars or more, if you can conveniently spare it, to pay taxes and interest on mortgage in the Valley Bank The cashier said to me to-day, pay interest promptly and tho princi. pal can run,

D,sAnM THE APAcmEs.

On the question of the control of the Apaches, Acting Governor Murphy says "It has been recommended in former reports that the more warlike Apsches under military surveillance on reservations in the southern part of the Territory be removed from Arizona. This is in response to the almost unan- ! iuhously expressed wishes of our people. | G hns been demonstrated, however, that this proposition IS impracticable, the government having no more appro- priate place to locate them, but it is stll contended, and l think with pro- priety, that these Indians should be disarmed and prohibited from the use and possession of rifles and fixed am munition. The Indian Bureau. I am informed, opposed this action on the ground particularly that the poor h. | dian would he left defenceless against | the attacks of lawless white men Snch premises are in my judgment false, and and an outrage upon our people, az well as being inconsistent v:th the re- ligious education being promoted by the bureau A Winchester rifle in one hand, and testament and spelling book in the other, certainly present q vivid anomaly.
 Ut is nlso stated that the military authorities of tho government oppose disarming these Apaches, first, because of the difficulty and danger, and sec ond, because it would take away, to a certain degree, their means of obtain ing livelihood It Is respectfully sub mi;ted that presenting the question of difficulty and danger appears almost elmyaleut to confession of weakness and a to the use oifi.aar ms with which tJ support themselves by killing wild game, the proofs are ample that game cuts no particular figure in the econo- my of their living. They are main tainei by the government
 While do not wish to be eaptious on the subject l express the unanimous sentiment of our people in asking that these Indians he disarmel and prohib, tied from the possession of rihel guns and hSep ammunition. Shot guns are less objectionable, but while thorough, 1 ly armed with Wincnesters and reyol yers they will remain continued men ace to the peace of the Territory

If there was ever time when puei' ism merited tho to,eration of the pull , lie, that day has long since passed. Either the manly art" has sadly de- generated, or else we have been moving upward in the plane of morality since the days of Heenan, sayres and Nor fisy The latter inference is without doubt the truc one, for at no time was the so-called sport other than brutal, and if it bore any degree of merit in former .imes it was tho assurance that ring contests were, as a rule, honestly conducted, and the best man won. Now pugilism has Tot even that trivial excuse for recognition, for only in rare instances, where the Pnrse hung mp ia so large as to excite the oupidity of the pugilists, can Q genuine contes: be de- pended upon.
 There arc not many States ia the Union where the prize ring is counte- nanced, and even in thoso few its exis. tence IS precarious, and offers but little iEducement to the ambitious slugscr. The public have grown suspicious; TO- peated fakes have made them wary, and hereafter the professional bruiser and athleto will have a harder TOW to hog.

One of the stock arguments against the free coinage of silver is, says the Datroit News, that silver will be sent from all foreign countries and 76 cents worth be coined into a dollar. The director of the mint, in one of his re, cent reports, shows that foreigner. have, as nearly as can be estimated, s ,338, 300, 900 in silver, of which g, ,923, 900, 900 is full legal tender, and S4Os, 500, 900 limited legal tender, or subsidiary coin The coining ratio ol the United States is l6 to ], or, to be correct, 159S8 to 1-that is, l5. 9Ss onnces of coined silver are equal in value of payments of one ounce of coined gold. In Europe the ratio is 15I Go l and in India 15 to so that tho coining value of ounce of silver in the United States, says tile directo. of the mint, is Sl29, in Eulcpe Sl. .33, und in India S1.37. It takes 37l, ,2G grains of pure silver to make dollar in tn. Unitsd States, while the core spoa ling coin in France would contain oly Jj).9) grains, aai in India but 34S3) grains. India silver sent to this country would lose 8l cents cn the ounce to the shipper, and silver from Europe would be worth nearly 4l cents less The equivalent of our dollar in France would coin only into 96l cents aud the like in India would only be worth about 93 cents ct our hints, Il does rot seem likely that any European or Asiatic would go to the trouble oi sending silver to this country only tc lose 8! to 2 cents on the dollar For the three years, 1887, 1888 and 1889, there was moro silver coined than mined, England coining 11,O0O, 00O in 1SSq

The Ari2ont Journal Miner of Octo- Der 9th, gives place to an article from tho Pittsburg Dispatch, entitled: "rhe Old Santa f'e Trail, which credits "that thirty-five years after Columbus discovered this continent Ava Nunez Cabaza de Yaca called from Spain and landed in Florida, From there he made wonderful overland Iournsy} 8 part of the way ho traversed route (the Santa Fe traiD which ever since has fouud great favor with travellers to New Mexico" Tho writer of that ar ticle also says, "Phil Kearney knew the trail we'll, for had he not fought cver nearly its entire length?' By way of rebuttal we will state that it was Gen, Stephen w. Kearney, and not Phil, his nephew, who commanded the army of conquest which left Fort Leavenworth June 1916, reaching Santa Fc the same year. The story that either of the Kearnoys fought their way over nearly tho entire length of tho trail IS simply bosh No fighting was done, nor was there any occasion for it. The entry into Santa Fc was simply a holiday parade, and Phil Kearney was not one of those who graced tho occasion The oracular pencil of tho Pittsburg Dis. pstchplaees Cabaza de Vaca (anglicized; COW hsodl oa the Santa Fe trail about the year l53o, or 295 years before it was located and surveyed, by order of the United States, ny Commissioners Reeves, Sibley and Mather.

J. c.

Arizona with greater and more varied mineral resources has not made move, so far as We are informed, toward q display at the Fair Why our com uissioners should be so apathetic is uf explained, unless it be because of the belief that the S3a,00J bonds authorized by the Inst legislature to be negotiated to provide Worlds Fmr fund can not be placed UnIcss the mining companies take hold of the matter, and are assisted by citizens generally, there is little prospect of Arizona making creditable display.
