The New Censorship of Opinion.

From the San Francisco Examiner.l
 The forced resignation of President Andrews of Brown University because he favors free silver coinage has at tracted worldwide attention to the intolerance of freedom of thought man. ifested by the moneyed classes in America. The dismissal, for it amounts to that, is defended on the ground, as stated by the Trustees, that unless MT. Andrews ceased to express in a public way his opinions on the finan- cial question the university "would in the future fail to receive the pecuniary support which is requisite to enable it to prosecute with snccess the grand work in which it has entered" That is the only possible defense, and it is the only one which the supporters of the Trustees have attempted to put forward. As one of them puts it, the action twas taken simply because they found the supplies cut off. The foun- tain which nourished the institution was drying up. It was their duty to find out the cause and apply the remedy"
 The defense simply shifts the blame by one remove. It is notice to univer- sity professors and their governing bodies that the wealthy men whose purposes it is to endow institutions of learning propose further to exercise a censorship of opinion and dictate views on scientific questions where these may touch their material interests. If the case were single it might be unimpor- tant, but in fact it is only one of sever al that have attracted less attention. The condition causes leading London journal, the Spectator" which is usually fair-minded in comment on American affairs, to say:
 Capitalists have subsidized the pupits, bought up the press, seated well-paid attor- neys in the Senate; and, finally, have stretched their hands out to the colleges which it is an easy thing to capture by such generosity as Mir. Rockfeller's. Apparently it is their intention to convert the United States into powerful oligarchy, and they will extend the sway of that oligarehy to other lands when they can.

FOND OF THE WEED.
Indians All Smoke from Early Child
 hood to old Age.

When Sir Waiter Raleigh, in whose debt all smokers must everlastingly re- main, was surprised one morning by his servant, who found him smoking pipe, and, thinking that he was on fire, threw a bucket of water over him, he inaugurated that discomfort which, it is said, all users of the weed must un- dergo by way of preliminary training; yet, oddly enough, in the home of to- baeco, among the Indian tribes, no such preliminaries are undergone by neo- phytes. It is TO unusual thing to see an Indian mother smoking cigarette and occasionally allowing her child, still in arms, to take a puff or two. The average Indian commences to smoke when he is less than a year old, and con tinues the practice until he dies; but he seldom smokes to excess, and he can hardly be said to smoke regularly in the. way that we do. A report by the Smithsonian institution, now in press, contains some information on the sub ject of smoking among the Indians which is of interest.
 The Indians do not regard tobacco as we do, nor do they use it in the same way. While there is a social side tor their smoking, the principal use of the leaf is ceremonial and religious It has always been 30 with them, and even now, when the native preparations are largely replaced by the cheaper and more convenient supply at the traders stores, the old religious feeling is still there. There is something about to- bacco which turns the mind of the smoker into contemplative moods, the savage mind not less than the mind of the poet.
 The Indian will buy whatever he needs when he has money-sugar, coffee, cal ico or what-not-but, he cannot bring himself to buy tobacco; he cannot pro- fane the sacred soother" by buying it as he would horse. Yet smoke is an indispensable part of every transac- l ton, whether it be a religious ceremony, declaration of war or the purchase of yard of calico. The traders have come to recognize this, and in every store there is a little tin basin on the counter
 tand generally nailed to it), containing tobacco, cigarette paper and matches, which are freely used by all corners. Even the worst beats" are sensitive to any remark about their use of this free tobacco, and any allusion to twill drive them out of the place and keep
 them away for days.-Washingto Star

THE President being an old Union soldier himself, the fact that he failed to appoints single comrade to Feder- al position in Arizona would indicate that he doesn't have much to say, and that the stay-at-hoine brigade, headed by Mark Hanna, is in charge of affairs.

Tn is not known to very many, prob

IT is not known to very many, prob ably, that Collis P. Huntington, the railroad magnate, was ever news paper publisher, but he was. It was more than forty years ago, in Califor- mia, and in the short space of one year sunk $56, ,000 in its publication. Being from Connecticut he was an abolition ist in sentiment, and he started his paper with the idea of fighting slavery through the press. Before his paper was started somebody else had pub lished the same kind of sheet there with poor success, two or three of it's editors having been killed in rapidly succeeding duels. Huntington's editor was not killed, but when s50,000 had been lost, he was ready to abandon the enterprise.

TIE TRIBUNE is in receipt of

THE TRIBUNE is in receipt of a 100- page pamphlet, just issued by the Government printing office, on "Irri- eation near Phoenix, Arizona" Its author is Mr. Arthur P. Davis, whom our readers will remember as the engineer in charge of the survey of the Buttes reservoir more than year ago, and who made his headquarters in Florence for several weeks. The work is an elaborate one, with maps and illustrations, ard large portion of it is devoted to the Buttes project. It will be seen that Mir. Davis is as en- thusiastic as ever over the Buttes loca- tion, which is without doubt one of the best reservoir sites on the con- tinent. It is only question of time when the dam will be built, either by the Government or by private capital.

About month ago man named Jeremiah Murphy, aged 70 years, was admitted to the county hospital upon affidavits made to the board of supervisors that he was i'll and des- titute. A short time after being ad- mitted he died and was buried at the expense of the county. A few days ago it was learned that the deceased had left trunk in the possession of 6 friend in the city. The trunk was locked, but it was soon opened, and in the bottom, concealed under clothing, was found the sum of $500. The de- ceased had hopes of being cured at the hospital without expense to himself, and he would still be in possession of his money.-[ Phoenix Gazette.

 THE Phoenix Gazette one day this week published table giving the as sessed valuation of the different coun- ties of the Territory for the years 1896 and 1897, and among other things showed (falsely) that there had been a decrease in Pinal county for the year 1897 of more than half million dol lars. The fact is that the assessment roll of this county for the current year shows an aggregate of $1 ,602 ,314 20, an increase of $9S, ,6S1.54. Will the Gazette please make the correction?

JUDGE GEORGE R. DAVIS, the newly installed District Judge for the First Judicial District, arrived in Tucson this week from the East, and it is said created a very favorable impression. As Judge Doan is disqualified from hearing the application for relief re- gently made by water-users under the Casa Grande Valley canal by reason of having been an attorney in similar case, it is more than probable that Judge Davis will be called in, when our patient and long-sufering people will have an opportunity of becoming acquainted with him. The occasion of his visit to Florence should be made pleasant one.
