Adams county has been thorou,

Adams county has been thorough
ly and Systematically canvassed by
deputy collector Nichols, and the
high terms OF praise in which he
speaks of our county, its resources
and many advantages; also the encom-

thrift and patriotism of our citizens is
grateful but cumulative evidence Of
what the NEWS has always known,
maintained and published to world.
The Marmion Gold Mining Co.,
limited, which owns valuable property
in the Republic belt have been selling
several large blocks of stock during
the past week. The company is regu-
larly incorporated under the laws Of
the state, and the names OF the COM
pany, of whom DIR. j. M. Adams is
president, and w. L. Olmsteat is Sec
rotary and treasurer, is sufficient
guarantee of its substantial character.
The propiietors OF the Harris Bros.
livery barn have opened up new
hair-cutting establishment at their
place of business. The machine used
consists of an 1S-inch fly wheel which
is run by hand power, with flexible
shaft some six feet long to the end Of
which is attached the clippers which
run like lightning and virtually knock

TOWN AND COUNTY.

WILL WHEAT ADvANCE.-In their
March letter the Tacoma Grain Co.
advance very strongly the idea of an
advance in wheat values. They claim
to have advises which indicate heavy
damage to winter wheat throughout
the United States, in some districts
the damage going as high as 60 per
cent or more. In conclusion they say:
"While we never advise specializing in
wheat, we will not be surprised if
those who are holding get their price.
With an abundance of money for
business purposes, with an upward
tendency in every branch Of trade, and
with probable shortage Of wheat in
the near future, we can see no reason
why it should not share in the gener-
ally upward tendency"

made no attempt to kick Fayette &C
cording, to Patterson's statement
but on the other hand Pat
received an ugly bruise under the right
eye where Fayette had kicked him
when Tug Wilson pulled him off and
he was in q crouching attitude.
Pat says on the way to the station
the prisoner made several attempts to
break loose and he struck him several
times with his fist. "When got Fay
cite to the station told Dick Blacker
to lock him up and not to give him
bond"
The case will come up before the
recorder this afternoon at five o'clock.
Tug Wilson, nightumanager at the
Majestic, who pulled Dwyer off Fsyette,
said that while Dryer did his duty in
trying to quell the distur bance, he saw
no reason for any police interference.
''1t wac just one of those quarrels that
you often see in gambling house, ADD
had we been left to ourselves we could
hav epatched the little difference up and
avoided all this fuss. The reason pull
he was going to kick him after he hit
Fayette with his fist, but be did not,
under arrest for interfering with an
officer. 1 refused at first to go to the
station with Pat, thinking that the
house would 90 my bond, but seeing
that they made no effort in this direc-
tion I allowed Pat to take me to the
Jail. On our way there Geo. Ogden
came up and told Pat that he would go
my bail for whatever amount the
charge called for and Pat turned me
loose"
A man who was in the saloon at the
time declares that the trouble was pro-
voked by remark Fayette made to
Pat, regarding his actions at the last
election. Pat resented the remark by
promptly knocking Fayette down.
This last statement Dryer denies en-
phatically. But it is the opinion of
many that Pat rather overstepped the
bounds. in his capacity IS an officer, in
being so demonstrative, and willing to
resort to such foul tactics in making an
arrest; but he seems to suit his uncle,
the mayor, so what more is to be said I?

ranks of the Yaquis. q the early part
of the present century their numbers
had decreased to less than 81 900 while
today there remain only about $1,000
OF the once powerful tribe. OF this lat
ter number there are about 5000 able
bodied warriors.
Such q force would at first seem in
significant, but the Yaquis are ao ex-
traordinary race of warriors. To be-
gin with, the men are physically far
superior to the troops with whom they
are contending. Secondly, they are
better armed, being equipped with
Winchester rifles, whereas the stand
and lastly, their stronghold in the
Sierra Madre Mountains is practically
invincible. Hence, to conquer those
5000 Yaqui braves, provided the entire
tribe has taken to war path, Is a
serious undertaking. The Mexican
government doubtless realizes
this only too well. From Feb
ruary, lS4S, the :, date of the
Guadalupe Hidalgo treaty, until the
treaty at Ortiz in July, 1897, there was
scarcely year that the troops were not
engaged in fighting the YaQuis. And
finally, after the Mexican government
had sacrificed over $4,000 soldiers and
many millions of dollars in its vain en-
deavor to vsdquish this restless foe, 1t
was obliged to make OvertureS with
terms satisfactory to the Iudians be-
fore. the latter would come down out OF
the mountains and return to their iorm-
err peaceful pursuits in the valley of
the Yaqui River.
The manner in which this treaty was
brought about involves the following
story. related by one of the late Gen.
Torres staff:
IN one OF the many forays of 1896
and 1897, young Yaqui Warrior was
wounded and captured. Instead of or
dering him shot, Col Pinado, the Off
Ger in command, directed that he
should have the kindest treatment.
When the Indian recovered. Col.
Pinado set him free and asked him to
bear a message to Chief Tetabiate,
the Yaqui leader. In this message the
colonel proposed q conference
to terminate the long
war. Tetabiate, however returned
word that the fate of former chief,
Csjemi. who had been lured down from
the mountains on similar pretext and
shot, was too fresh in his memory, and
that he did not care to leave his de-
lenses to meet any Mexican officers in
conference. He moreover stated blunt
ly that if Col. Pinado wanted to see
him, he would have to come into the
mountains, attended only by the In
dian messenger He concluded with
