R@ One of the Rev. DR.. A. L. Stones
deacons was much concerned in his
mind over the fact that his beloved
pastor liked good cigar, and he went
to reason together with him on the
subject. "Don't you think, DIR. Stone" "
said the deacon, "that there is such a
thing as mans smoking too much p
Yes, indeed, DR.. Stone thought there
was. "Well, don't you think there
is such thing as a minister of the
gospel smoking too much ?" The doc
tor certainly did. "Well, what would
YOU call too much ?" And the doctor
assured the deacon that he would GER
tainly call it smoking too much if any
man no matter who, should smoke two
cigars at once.

PACKING AND PRAYING.-A certain
clergyman gave it out from the pulpit
one night that he had received a call
to a wider sphere of usefulness in a
larger town (and presumably a larger
stipend). He could not, he said, make
up his mind, but was going to take
sometime to think of it and pray for
guidance. A fortnight later one of
the congregation met the PASTORS eld-

The many rumors given currency af' ter the resigna ton of Secretary Alger, in regard to alleged changes to be made m the conduct of the Philippine war, seem to be set at rest by late press dis patches from Washington. General Otis will remain in command of the army there, General l.awton to have charge of the cavalry division and com mand of the Csvite territory. General Joe Wheeler will bc second in com mand of the cavalry division. Gen. Otis retention ill command is condi- tional upon the measure of success he attains in the campaign to be renewed after the rainy season. The admins tration is beginning to show uneas'ness least the prolongation of the war should injure republican chances next year, m opinion which Senator Burrows has expressed. ten. Otis is to be given all the men and arms he asks for, md Il reasonable length of time to crush the rebellion, Should this not be accom- plished by December, or the first of the coming year, then Gen. Otis will be superseded by some other officer, prob ably Gen. Lawton.

The Yaqui Rebellion.

] II Is evident from the vigorous meas ures taken to quell the Iaqui uprising that the Mexican government fully ap- preciateS the difficulty of the task The lsqui is the only native tribe within the territory of our sister republIc which has never been conquered. AL though defeated many times in battle and their ranks dccimated, owing to the superior numbers and equipment of the Mexican soldiery, yet they were never known to make overturcs for pence. and whenever the cessation of hostilities has been agreed upon the proposal came from the MeXicans.
 It was hoped that by the signing of the treaty ot peace at Ortiz, two years ago, permanent peace had been estab- lished. and doubtless such would have been the case had the Mexican govern mcnt kept faith with the Indians. The reports of rich discoveries of gold in the Iaqui valley caused an thrush of prospcctors, which was encouraged by the government and concessions within the domain ceded to the laqui by the treaty, were granted to Americans and others.
 The laqui tribe, which at the tune of Cortez expedition numbered 3j0, O0O, Is now estimated at little more than fifteen thousand of whom five thousoud arc abie-bodicd males. Yet the government will find even this small number formidable to cope with as they are physically much superior to the McNicans. and the topography of the country occupied by the Iaquis and their superior knowledge of its re- treats and stronghoIds IS greatly to their advantage. They are snId to be better armed than the troops, being equipped with Winchester rifles, whereas the Mexican arm is the Rem ington. The government now has about lJUO men III the field and the campaign will be rclcntlessly pursued Should the uprising become general, which now seems probable, the laquiS will be able to make a stout resistance, and will not be easily subducd.

Death of Captain Cutter.

The news of the death of Capt F.. A. Cutter which occurred on August |, at the residence of his sister. Mrs. ]. R. Bailey, in San Jose, Cnl., has occasion ed very general regret in Southern Ar izona, where the deceased was widely known. He had been in bad health for many months, and after spending some time in California, improved to such an extent that it wus deemed pru- dent for him to return to his home at Bonita, Graham county, Ariz., where he conducted large mercantile busi- ness However, he grew rapidly worse after his urrival home and was again taken to San Jose but failed to rccu- perate.
 Capt. Cutter was n resident of Ari- zona for upwards of twenty years, hnv- ing come into the territory as an engiu- ecr, in charge of the survey work for the Santa Fc company. He was m in- tlnential republican, and had filled sev- eral public offices He was appointed member of the territorial board of equalization by Governor McCord and was reappointcd by Governor Murphy. He was also vice president of the Gila Valley, Globe N Northern Railway company His mother, two sisters and two brothers survive him, all living near san Jose, Cal. Capt. Cutter was genial whole-souled man and public spirited citizen. and his loss is keenly felt

REPUBLICAN, AuTOCRACY.

The most noticeable thing in conncc- ton with the discussion of the Philip pine war is the indifference of criticism hy the administration supporters. Not only do they approve of the censoshlp enforced at Manila that would prevent the true condition of affairs in l.uzon becoming known to the people at home, but they denonnce as seditious every sentiment expressed that is opposed to the conduct of the war and the policy of territorial expansion.
 On what meat hath this our expan. sionist Caesar fed that he has grown so great and arrogant? By what method of reasoning does he find license for denying the right of free speech III these United States of America? II the republican party contends that they are the people. the embodiment of truth, justice and patriotism, and that the millions of citizens whose opinions differ from theirs have no right to eN- press those opinions, then are we fast approaching imperialism.
 In this country the people are the source of all power and to them the last appeal must be made in every po-
 
 litical cause. They will know tn. truth sooner or later, and if they have been deludcd, their rights inlringed or liberties. denied the time will surely come, and that speedily, when they will reckon with an autocratic adminis- tration and dethrone party that has usurped the privileges and prerogativcs of free people.
