The Secretary of the Interior has revoked the department decision of November r, 1892, refusing to ap- prove the selections made by the Southern Pacific Railroad in lieu of the odd sections of land relinQuish- ed by it under the Act of June p, 1874, so far as the former decision held that alternate sections within the great limits were not subject to selection under that Act. The de- cision is important and affects the rights of all railroad companies having similar land grants.

The BudhISt Life of Christ.

The story recently telegraphed to the Examiner and subsequently, published by our local cotempora- ries regarding the discovery of & Buddhist Life of Christ in a monas- tery in Tibet has some singularly interesting features, It is clearly based on the Gospel account, with one remarkable exception. Ii as- serts that at the age of thirteen the Prophet Issa," or Jesus, flied from his fathers house and went with merchants to Sindh. At fourteen he was living among the Aryas. One day he broke away from the Boahmins. He denied the divine origin of the Vedas and the incar- nation of Para Brahma. He learn ed Pali. and was initiated into the mysteries of pure Buddhism. Then he went westward preaching against idols. He was twenty-nine years old when he returned to Judea."
 Now the peculiar thing about this story is that it just fills up a long gap in the New Testament nar- rative. From the age of twelve to that of thirty the known history of Jesus is an absolute blank. The Buddhist story locates him in India from thirteen to twenty-nine.
 Of course, we do not believe in the historical accuracy of this Ti- betan legend. It is probable that the Lamas heard the received ac- count of the founder of Christian ity, and eventually filled up the gap themselves. But the story must have peculiar interest for the critics who have insisted that they could trace a notable Buddhist ele- ment in the Christian teaching, and who have been puzzled to account for it's origin.-Examiner.

THE REPUBLIC says i:


 Tom Reeds prophecy is that a tariff for revenue will develop man. ufactores in the West. If he does not know anything about the tar if he is not fit to lead party. If he knows anything and is telling what he knows the West cannot af- ford to cast vote for a protection party. Take Reed at his word and the West must be unanimously Democratic.
 WILLIAM WALDORF AsToR is the only New York Tory who is mak- ing a clean breast of bis opinions. There are 10000 of them still on this side who say only half what they think. We would rather see them all in London.
 The fact that Vice. President Ste- venson got a Presidential salute from an artillery company down South Is reminder that 1t is never good management to begin firing until the engagement begins.
 SECRETARY GRESHAM always had a wide-open nostril for the breezes of Western opinion. A resigna- tion of first place in the Cabinet on account of a seigniorage veto would send him away up for 1896 in the long distance betting.
 The London Times is unable to understand the action of President Cleveland in the Sandwich Islands. This is not strange when it is i'm possible for the people in this coun- try to understand all of his actions here

Coy. HoGG, oi Texas, telegraph ed the following from Austin to the Times Herald on the 18th ult':
 You can truthfully say that nei- ther the cormorant nor the com mune can disgrace Texas while I am Governor. When railroad company hauls tramps or unem- ployed penniless men into this State it cannot dump them into a barren desert and murder them by torture and starvation without atoning for 1t if there is any virtue in the ma chinery of justice. Nor will I per init them to be shot down on Tex as soil by any armed force whatev- CT, no matter how much the South ern Pacific and other enemies of the State may howl about the Com mune," J. s. HoGG.
 Investigation proves that the 800 men dumped out on the desert by the Southern Pacific were employ ees of the railroads in California who were discharged.

Washington advices state that the Senate Committee on Public Lands will probably soon take up Senator Carey's bill granting each of the arid land states and territo- ries million acres each of public lands to be sold to settlers in lots of 100 acres each. The Secretary of the Interior endorses the bill and the Commissioner of the General Land Office has written a letter in which he takes advanced ground in favor of the improvement of the arid regions by placing the work under the control of various states.
 He said: "The states are highly interested in the reclamation of the arid lands within their boundaries and the settlement and cultivation thereof by individual citizens. The work is too vast to be undertaken by the general government. Local and community interest under the control of the states will stimulate results with far greater zeal and suc- cess. The principal proposition in- volved, the reclamation and settle ment by individuals in small hold ings, meets my strong approval, and this bill seems to present full opportunity for practical expert ment and under proper safeguards"
 The states and territories that will be greatly benefited if this bill becomes a law are Arizona, Califor- mia, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ore- gon, South Dakota, Utah, Washing ton and Wyoming.-Albuquerque Citizen.

The junior counsel in a case where Daniel Webster was the sen- for informed the great advocate that the opposing parties were bent on securing a continuance, while the interests of his client demand ed immediate decision. Among other annoyances mentioned was the fact that the other side had oc- cupied six days cross examining one witness. When Mir. Webster appeared next day, he soon had oc- casion to remark "They ask for a continuance of this case. Why, may it please the court, they have already occupied as much time in the cross examination of one witness as it took the Almighty to create the universe. ."-Minneap- oils Housekeeper.

Highest of all in Leavening Powe-Laest Govt Report @!al Baking Bs.!dsg,! ABSOLUTELY PURE
ThIeving Indians.

The Papagos in southern Pima off the reservation have the repu- tation of being self supporting :; but while sustaining themselves they are very hard on the ranchers. The fact is the Papagos there for the past two years have not sup ported themselves at all. Beef is the chief article of diet yet it is mo- torious that they do not own a sin gle head of stock. They have now got to where they kill cattle in wan ton spite, taking none or little of the beef; besides this they are in dulging in obstreperous talk. The cattlemen have become very much exasperated, and demand that the Indians be removed to a reserva- tion and under the watch of sub- agent, or they will take measures in their own hands to stop the raids on their stock.
 The vast scope of mesa surround ing Quijotoa and Gunsight is good range. Stock have roamed there and thrived. A considerable per centage, however, has been lost from there for years, taken by the thieving Papagos. Once the kill ing was of an occasional fat steer. for relish of beef. Not so now. They kill the cattle and sell the beef for gold dust at the placers; or make jerky of it and take it to Mexico. There they trade it for wheat or wheat flour, and return to Arizona, to their living of beef and bread. A 600 pound steer dried to jerky weighs 100 pounds, and is light load for a pony.
 The Indians are said to have warning of any pursuit, and there is hardly a mountain thereabout but has its dusky sentinel on the lookout for pursuing cattle owners.
 The ranges in the region men, toned is almost denuded of stock. A rancher named Rodondo brought 15OO head of fine stock from Yuma country to the Gunsight country year ago. Of the herd he has but 250 head left. Everywhere on the range can be seen the heads of butchered stock. Ranchers who expected on round-ups to find 100 head find perhaps a dozen-and those the culls left by the Indians, the fattest stock having been killed,
 The Papagos are said to be ex- tending the territory of their raids. Cattlemen will certainly take des- perate measures soon if the Indi- ans are not cared for. Deputy Sheriff Proctor, himself stockman, to-day wrote to Agent, J. R Young, asking that steps looking to the cessation of the raids be taken.-I Citizen.
