and bitches. 1t is not the business of
the Federal Government to reclaim
lands for farming. The States and
Territories, however, can deal with
the subject, each within its own lim-
its. The Government has already set
apart certain sites for dams and can
ais: these should be ceded with the
lands. General laws could be provided
to prevent States from unduly divert
ing the water Of rivers so as to injure
the supply Of other States. If neces-
sary, provisions could also be made for
preventing State from conveying to
private monopolies the fights to water
supply thus practically ceded to it in
trust. The general Government would
thus turn over to the States and Ter
ritories, both the arid lands and the
means of irrigating them, subject OF
course to the control o. Congress over
navigable waters. The cost, the la
Dor, and the profit of reclaiming the
lands would go to those most interest
ed in them.

ARlzONA's COAL DEPOsITEs.
From the oooonio Sun.

From the Coconio Sun.
The discovery of new coal fields in
Sonora, Mexico, is the subject of much
favorable comment by our exchanges
from southern Arizona. Judging from
the tone of some of the notices given,
it is strange that so many Of the news
papers Of that section know nothing of
the large coal fields lying in Coconio
and Apache counties. These fields are
the largest west OF the continental di.
vide, and will supply the Pacific coast
for ages to come. In many places the
coal deposites are 40 feet deep and q
feet wide, and contains the best coal
for domestic purposes.
These fields commence east of tho
Little Colorado river, and extend
northeast of the San Jaun, covering
many hundreds Of square miles of val
liable coal lands.
In eastern Apache county, northeast
Of st. Johns, there are also large coal
fields which are einexhaustable. There
In no need for Arizona to look outside
OF her own limits for supply of fuel
for the present or future.
The reason that these coal deposites
remain untouched is that they are, at
present, too far from the railroad, and
that there is but little demand for
COAL bepond the supply now made
from the Gallup coal fields. With
greater demands, roads will be built
to the new source Of supply, and ART
zona can supply the world with coal.

THE COAL OIL INSPECTOR CHATS.

From the New Mexican.
NJ. S. Hart, Territorial inspector of
coal oil, spent yesterday in the city,
and inspected some 1000 gallons of
kerosene. A part of 1t was old stock
brought in by the Rocky Mountain
company at the time of the sharp fight
last spring, and an inspection of this
resulted in the rejection of about 450
gallons, it not being up to the legal
requirements OF $50 proof.
The inspector says he has been leni-
ent with the dealers up to this time,
but all have now had ample notice OF
the law and its requirements, and par
ties caught violating it in the least
particular will henceforth have to an
swer for their ignorance or careless,
ness, whichever they please to call it,
He has also given the Continental
company to directly understand that
II it wants to get along smoothly II
must have all oil shipped in fully up to
the legal test
"Thc last four cars loads shipped in
BY the company we're all right, said
the inspector.
Mr.. Hart is kept constantly on the
road attending to his duties. He said
he finds much more work required in
the southern part of the Territory
than he counted on originally.

A CONFESSION.

''Shoot Few" is the heading of an
article in yesterdays p. P.
Referring to the frequent highway
robberies, it says: ''If one of these au-
dacious robbers were shot dead I'D his
tracks it would be the end of the bust
ness of holding up people"
And again it says: ''Pernicious as the
habit of carrying weapons in ordinary
times Is rightly held to be. the uprising
of the criminal class would be ended
swiftly if people should agree, Cor few
weeks. not only to carry them. but use
Them"
While this is dangerous advice for a
newspaper to give. it must be conceded
that it may become necessary for citi-
zens to adopt it. simply because the au-
thorities do not afford the protection they
should. The GLOBE has for months
been condemning the inetficiency of the
present administration. and the Pioneer
Press has been foremost in declaring
that the comments of the GLOBE were
malicious and partisan.
Instead of advocating the protection
of the people by their paid servants, it
now proposes to abandon ali hope of aid
from that quarter and "shoot few"
This is confession Of the falsity of
its former comments and an unwilling
admission that the demand of the GLOBE
that the criminal classes be driven from
our midst was based upon the necessity
of the situation.
No such state of affairs need to exist
or to continue, but it probably will so
long as an incompetent executive seeks
for glory by attempting to be his own
chief of police and regulate affairs for
which he is not fitted either by educa-
ton or experience.

AERIAL NAVIGATION CRANKs.

The cranko are apparently as busy as
ever. On Wednesday Mr.. Cockrell, of
Missouri, introduced bill to promote
aerial navigation. OF course, it pro.
vides for an appropriation. All such
measures need money for their promo
ton. But the trouble is they do not
promote.
Two years ago congress made large
appropriation to the rainmakers. These
enthusiasts claimed that by exploding
dynamite from balloon suspended in
mid-air they could congregate clouds
under the most braZen sky, and precipi-
tate showers upon the thirsty earth be-
meath that would cause the seed wheat
and corn to Sprout and fructify, and
cause the desert to blossom with all the
flowers of tho field. The experiments
were given in charge of Gen. Dyren-
forth, of the army, an enthusiast on
the subject. Loaded with dynamite
and buoyed up by hope and balloons
galore, he betook himself to Texas. nd,
on all arid plain, began his experiments.
Several balloons were sent up and sue
cessively destroyed by the conclusions
them, but with no other result than to
shatter the window panes in the houses
of the ranchmen for twenty miles about.
No rain fell, but on one night heavy
dew was precipitated, and Gen. Dyren-
forth was happy. He declared his the
cries proven beyond controversy, de-
spite the fact that for untold centuries
the same phenomenon, if such it could
be called, had been observed. When
ever the winds have blown from the
gulf they have carried moisture which,
cOndenSing as it encountered the hot
atmosphere from the Texas Sand-dunes,
was preclpitated in showers of rain or
drippings of dew.
Congress has been induced at various
times to sQuander many thousands of
dollars OF the peoples money on various
crank notions, and as yet without any
compromising return. 1t is about time
that such experiments should cease.
If, however, the aid asked is voted, it
should be stipulated that the Missouri
senator. as we'll as the orlginatorS of his
scheme, should take passage In the first
aerial snip launched upon the pillows
of the air. If they are never heard
from afterwards, perhaps the country
would feel that it had been recompensed
for the outlay. On no other condition,
however, should the appropriation be
granted, for we have need of all our
available cash at present for the purpose
of paying the debts incurred through
the extravaganza and mismanagement
of the last Republican administration.
If we could get rid of few crank states
men by that means, however, the ex-
pendIture would be fully warranted.
