 It is pleasing to note the number or l old army officers who took a hand in ] licking the Apaches into submission and surrender are being promoted to l high rank in the army and are push i ing to the front to thrash the Span ish Apaches. They will clean them
 out of Cuba as they rid Arizona of the bloodthirsty Apaches.-Tucson Citi- zen.
 pr. Geo. Goodfellow was in Tucson Saturday. He stated that he expected to leave Sunday morning for Tampa,
 Florida where General Shafter is at
 present stationed. The doctor has re- ceived an appointment on Shafter's 5 staff, but he did not, before leaving,
 know the rank it was intended to give
 him. As a surgeon he will prove him self one of the most valuable of men. and General Shafter did wise thing
 when he made the appointment.

 The ten thousand dollar bond issue of school district No. 1 of Yuma has gone "a glimmering," for the present at least. The company contracting for the bonds discovered that the mo- tice calling for the election creating the bonds was defective, in as much as the names of the judges of election were omitted, thus invalidating the whole transaction. At the time the election was called the board had no attorney employed, and the clerk of the board, who is not professional lawyer, made the slight though fatal error in drawing up the notice. An other election has been called for Monday, June 13, when the people will be given another opportunity to ex- press their wishes in the matter. AS there is considerable opposition to the prOposl,lon to abandon the present school property, the result of the cleo tion is extremely uncertain, and it may yet be necessary for the district to get along with the present facil- ities for another year.
 The presence of Governor McCord in the city Monday on official business connected with the university was no doubt a satisfaction to him, as that institution has made much substantial progress during the past nine months Like unto the vari ous departments of the territory, there has been a vigorous development on the lines of improvement and econ Omy. 1t Will be matter of interest to the people of the territory to learn that at no time has every material in terest of Arizona been in better con- dition than at present. The territor ial credit has never been better. More gold, copper and cattle are being pro duced and directed into the channels of commerce than ever before. Tax able values are steadily appreciating, and the assessment rolls of nearly all the counties increased by the develop ment of new mines and reclamation of new land to agriculture, all of which in measure results from the confi dence capital enjoys from faithful administration of puDllc affairs of the territory.-Star.
