CTS as Arizona cattle has had much to do with giving our stock bad name. Serious losses sustained by reason of the severe storms or last winter by purchasers of thin southern cattle shipped north late in the season also tend to deter possible buyers. Losses from this cause should not be charged against the cattle but against the bad judgment of those who shipped them north in the fall There IS right time to ship southern stock north, and it is just as much an error to ship southern bred cattle north in the fall, as it would be to bring northern raised animals south in the summer.
 There are some inferior cattle in Arizona, just as there are in Illinois and Kentucky, but a good percentage of our stock is Of excellent quality. Taken north at the proper time and handled with judgment. they yield q good return.-Range News.

The citizens of Arizona. and of Pres colt in particular, should tender a vote Of thanks lIJ the PIeso-l-t Courier for the valuable service it has rendered and is rendering in support of efforts that are being putt forward by many of our influential citizens to secure for the territory the establishment of WhiIlpIe barracks as a military post
 It is fcrtunai la indeed, for Arizona that the Prascoitt Courier is rarely, if ever, seian outside of the territory, and the influence that it exeT:ts at home is Of little consequence; otherwise the territory and this particular section now enjoying great business activity W1-glld suffer materially. It is beyond the comprehension eff any man with ordinary common sense, why the col umns of a local paper should Ice used, at this time in particular, to assail the secretary of war, and especially is this true in face of the facts developed that all the charges made against the secretary of war and the administra- tiCn generally, by politicians, and more particularly the charges preferred by General Mics (wlho has always been unfriendly towards northern AriZona1 have been proven, beyond question, to be gT0undlesS and unworthy of con- sideTation. General MiIess attitude toward the administrator has been in kcering with his antagi-nism that he has always displayed toward northern Arizona ever since our citizens refused to taEts sides with him against the tried and true friend of Arizona. that brave and noble soldier, General George Crook.

A PROJECTED FENCE.
The COune II Confe mpIafing SePara.
 lion From (. D. Ward.

When the city council, after a fierce
 struggle of many years finally got rid
 of the Dutch Ditch, it believed that it
 had gotten the last chronic perplexity
 off its hands. But the council forgot about yC ID. Ward, who was all the time a much more interesting and
 elllSive problem than the Dutch Ditch. The council had jurisdiction over the ditch, but it has none over Mr. Ward. He is so near and yet so far. Hts house, the College Place. lies just outside the city limits, but jT is built up flush against the corpora tion line on Van Buren street, between Center street and First avenue. The trouble is, Mr Ward is crOwding the city and filling it with a sense of op- pression. As a result of MT. Wards position, Van Buren street Is only half as wide in front of his house as it IS anywhere else.
 The county has been talking about opening it's half of the stree. This talk is on the theory that it owns the ground, but MT Ward claims that strip, so that the opening would like 1y be attended by injunction proceed ings and other forms of litigation. IL is not likely the county will act, but the city has figured out a plan which, if it will not afford relief, will inspire MT. Ward with regret and put htm in a proper frame of mind to entertain reasonable proposition to quit crowd ing. The plan is to build a high and tight board fence along the city line from Center street north. Such fence would, of course, rest against the principal front of the College Place. In one way it would be fi- nancIal advantage to MT. Ward. He could sell all the numerous doors on his Van Buren street front and like wise the myriad of windows. There would be no use for them, either up stairs or down, for along College Place the fence would be built as high as the roof. The 0ty limits ex- tend in an upward direction all the way to the sky. MT Ward has an air title. which runs all the way along side the city's air title, so that though his Van Buren street front should be obscured by a high and opaque fence, he could start a balloon line for the accommodation of his guests. The mundane terminus of the Ward G Phoenix Aerial system could be To- cated on the First avenue front Of College Place. MT. Ward wouldn't ! have to get franchise from anybody. The city in its present statel of feeling to- ward him would undoubtedly deny him a right of way through it's at mospheric possessions

Preliminary Survey for inc Road
 Ready 10 Begin.

The building of a railroad to Ingle- side is much n-1Ier an accomplished fact than the general public imag- ines. Tn reality a considerable part Of tho public has ni5t heard of the project Of creating a great suburban resort at Ingleside at all.
 But plans for a magnificent hotel have long been prepared, various sur veys Of proposed routes have been made, but none have yet been decided upon. IA great deal has been done in the matter of securing a right Of way and fcr some time there has been a petition before the board of super viscrs with reference to a right over certain county roads. Negotiations have also. been begun with property owners in the city for a right of way enabling the Ingleside line to make railroad connection in the city.
 The Republican has been definitely informed that the work is Ll3IW So far advanced that the preliminary survey for the route to Ingleside will be be gun within q very short time.

It is difficult to understand how a paper so uniVer- sally just in reporting the facts in con nection with news items, shOuld allow the persuasive eloquence, of even 50 brilliant an orator as the defendants counsel, to affect it's impartiality and induce fd to publish an account of the crime, containing points wElch even the defense did not undertake to prove. The whole tenor of the ar ticle was taken exception to by the readers Of The Republican here and the correspondent was fortunately not held responsible for it. This good old town has received enough unenviable noteriety on account of this killing and subsequent court proceedings, and 1t Is now, and has been since it's constable was taken to Phoenix, as quiet and peaceful a town as any of the villages in New England CT on the banks of the famolis Hudson river. The fact that the services of a constable had not been found necessary before Mr. Will sons appointment nor since his lncar- ceration, goes far to prove the above.

BARNETT YUMFS HIS YOB.
Sheriff of the Infant County Couldn't
 Get Along.

lEnrry Barnett, sheriff of Santa Cruz county, has resigned his office and there is a snBi1 sized i'll feeling be- tween some Of the infant county's politicians.
 There is probatEy El-ls very great reward t-i be reaped in Santa Cruz by the chief peace officer of that county, and this fact may have had something to do with MT. Barrett's resignation, but the Eclmary cause is sl3:t9 to be more a matter Of principle than oth- erwise.
 It appears that the honorable gentle men of the bsoard Of supervisors of santa Cruz county had a few ideas of their own about distribution of pat ronage, ana when Mir Barnett ten de-ed request Ior the appointment of deputy sheriff they did not hesitate to Eclify him that they would only all-iw the deputy $40 per month, fcl, which amount no self respecting dep- uty would work. It may be inferred that if the sheriff had consented to appoint the officer Of the bcard1s che-l5ing the full amount Of salary would have been allowed.
 This is the dissg greamen5 which. as i've understand it. led to the breach DSt"o6n OnSf1H BSrn6tt and tho board of supervisors, and the former, de- termined that he would either run his own office CT not hold it, rendered his resignation, which was accepted.
