United States vs. Henry Tuning

The old negrvsees in the soutl remember, and talk about, the time when''de stars fell, honey, and how skeered dey was" The Kansas people with lamentation still re- Call the last visit of those pests, thu grass-hoppers, and are eloquen and pathetic in their description of the destruction caused by them
 An hundred years hence the oc- cnpants of Arizona will remember, and talk of, the visitation upor them of those official pests, the special agent of the General Land Office. They left behind them 2 trail of virulent infamy which has stained the public lands so deeply that even Arizona winds cannot blow it away, and our children's children will see it, and never a man will recall an official act cred itable to them.
 One Of these creatures, named Hawk, an appointee of Mr Harri sons, was in our midst, and con- ceived the notion of blackmailing Henry Tuning, and not being able SO to do, commenced to harrass and annoy him by making infam- ous reports to the government, which resulted in Tuning being indicted, and civil suits for the cancellation of his patents to public. lands being commenced, all in the name of our great government.
 Now, it is a singular and sugges- tive fact, that the government has utterly failed in all of these suits, and a few days since at Prescott, before a falrlninded United States Judge it took, as we learn, less than one hour to throw this last one out ofcourt.
 This case affected the title to the Lagupa Salado-which could not be sold for $100-which is not worth fencing which isiopen to and s used by every mans cattle as free ly as Mir Huning's--was commenced in June, 1891, at the instigation of Hawk, and the government, through Meade, it's Marshal, has subpoena ed, and attached, and forcibly car ried witness from all over Apache county and New Mrxico to Prescott, at an expense of not less that $1- 500-net profit to Mir. Marshall of, say $l ,000-and Mir. Tuning has been forced to make at least four trips there, and carry, and pay the expenses of. his own witness, as he couldn't trust the Marshal to sub pena them, and he would not pay him to harm him, as he said, all of which has cost him easily $1 ,000 And yet. never a witness did the United States put on the stand never witness did it find who i'm preached the integrity of the trans. action.
 As against a private individual a cost bond could have been re- quired but, as against the United States, it could not, and Tuning simply has to pocket the loss.
 We are proud of, and loyal to our government, but such exper lences teach us that there is rank rottenness in the exercise of some of its functions. In case like the above what chance would a man without means a man with the aver age amount of property not to speak of a poor man stand? Absol- utely none. His good name destro yed, and his property taken from him, because forsooth he was. poor ! We admire MT. Huning's pluck in fighting; congratulate him on the result, and hope thatshis exper Ience will not repeat itself sOon.- Winslow Mail.

ENTERTAINMENT.


| "a good sized audience witnessed the
presentation Of Goethe's Immortal
''Faust" last evening. Though the piece
has been seen in this city many times,
yet it will pay to seq it again, as this
company Is one of great merit. Joseph
Callahan has played the role of Mephis-
to on many occasions heretofore while
understudy for Lewis Morrison, and the
Ifmpersonation of Mr.. Morrlson's Mephis-
to was cleverly done by him. Mr.. Gala
han never appeared to greater advan-
tage than he did last evening, for his
own ideas as to the manner in which
the role should be played were welded
to the characteristics which have won
fame and fortune for the other Mephis-
tos
The Brocken scene particularly excels
in thrilling, weird and fantastic specta-
cles. In this scenic, which portrays
Faust's visit to hell in company with
Mephisto, the appearance of the arch
conspirator causes the earth to crumble
from his feet, the rocks to move, the
trees, enbodying human souls, to sway

a picture which rivals Dante's marvel-

Julian Green made a most excellent
Faust. Mr.. Corrlgan as Valentine was
very acceptable. Miss Reah Starr as
Marguerite divided honors with the
star. She made much of her part and
is deserving Of special mention for her
excellent work.
Miss Lillian Andrews az Dame Mar
