General Miles has retired from the position of lieutenant gener- al of the army of the United States. The office was abolish ed by Congress and would have expired in six days more, As an intentional snub to General Miles, Major General Young was appointed to fill the remaining six days, and all the Sentinel has to say about it is that it was mighty small piece of business for the administration to indulge in. Gen. Miles may have made himself obnoxious during his later years, but his record as a soldier during the civil war and in fighting Indians entitle him to respect and even admiration. He ought to have been permitted to retire as the last officer of the rank which he held.

 What President Roosevelt and his companions beheld in imagl- nation the next president who tours the arid region will know by his senses. For the Ameri- can people have decreed that the thing shall be done. "We've got the men, we've got the ships, and we've got the money, too. y
 In other words, we have dis covered Arid America and have decided to have it annexed to the United States in the full ecOnOm- ic sense of the term. The thing that Harrison looked at, yet saw not, that Mckinley beheld dimly and thought afar off. that thing Roosevelt sees face to face and already growing under his hand. And it has all come about with such marvellous rapidity that even those who have prayed and labored for it sometimes rut their eyes and ask each other il it be really true"

Some one has suggested that the negroes all be colonized in the Philippine Islands, and 1t wouldn't be a very bad idea. There has been so much trouble of late over this vexatiOus ques- tion that any reasonable solution would be a godsend, both to the negroes and the white people. If such course was taken, and Booker T. Washington installed as governor of the islands the negro would have some kind Of future before him, whereas here the more he strives the greater are the obstacles in his path.

GREAT RUSH TO
 GOLD FIELDS.
Big Gold Bearing Dykes South of
 Kirgman.

A great gold discovery has just been made ten miles south of Kingman, and it is causing one of the greatest gold excite ments northwest Arizona has ever seen. The gold is found in stratifed reefs of spar rocks. Free gold is found winch assays from ten dollars to $500 to the ton.
 Regarding the discovery the Mohave Miner says:
 "The new mining field is locat- ed a few miles south and west of Kingman in the broken foothills of the south end of the Cerbat and west side of the Wallapai mountain ranges. The whole country has at one period been covered by a great volcanic flow but in places the volcanic matter has been eroded away leaving sections of the primary forma' tion exposed. It is in these ig' neous rocks that the gold Is found, both in quartz veins and in the massive spar dykes cut ting the country through. Ly ing against the lavas of the higher hills are veins of quart and in these some splendid golt ore has been found. The claim: located by the Denver gentle men are being worked by d force of men and it is estimated by some that S2O, 100000 in ore i: lying exposed on the surface c the great reefs.

The dispatches tell of a man who beat his wife nearly to death and when arrested claimed that he did it in his sleep and knew nothing about it. A husband like that ought to have a wife like the West Virginia woman, who, when her jealous fool of a husband tried to shoot her and failed, walked calmly into the house, took down the family Winchester and sent a bullet through his body. A somnam- baulist e-beater is a bird that should receive no encourage ment.
