BlACkWATER Is
 NEW PIMA CHIEF

TUCSON, Feb. li.-4William Black water is now head e,f the Pima tribe. He was elected to that office last week by Q handsome majority over Antonito, the only ether candidate
 Antonito is the sen Of Anton Azul. who filled the office of head chief fos a number of years. dying of old age a short time ago. The son. however, is not regarded as such a hrainy, level headed mn as his f:aher. Blackwater won over ,him by a vote of 3S1 to 2O4.
 News of the election was brought to the city yesterday by Rev. F. V. Rich ards, Presbyterian missionary at Gila Crossing. He says that be does not know Blackwater. whe lives at the Yil- .age of Blackwater. bnt understands that he is a cautious, responsible man.
 Blaokwater's own village. the vil- lage of San Tan and tine Salt river re .sercation did not vote Mir. Richards said he was ignorant Of the reason therefor. but that these places would abide by tue result. Whenever an Indian does not vote in any election it means that he ,s indifferent as to the result and whatever the others do lEill be perfectly satisfactory to him
 The Pima system of government iE quite simple. They have a head chief and each village has sub-chief of it's own. ali these officers being elec- tive.
