The hunters of deer and wild tur key are preparing for the open sea son which will lie-in tomorrow. Sat iirdav. and continue uutil Decern -'r 15. Walter McN'utt. an employee of the Poland tunnel, was stricken with pneumonia a few days ago. and died esterday at the McCabe hospital. The remains were bought in yester .lay by S. A. Logan and will be sent te Humboldt. Ills . for burial. He was a railroad man by vocation, and 44 years of age. Major Waicutt. the atrreeable armv AVer who ha bten assigned o Fort Whipple for some mouths past as the officer iu charge of the rebuild- ntr of the same, has lieen ordered to Washington by the war department. He stated today that he is called away to be consulted on the rebuild n of the post at once and. would return in a short time, when work voulk be inaugurated everywhere. Lynx Creek is strongly democratic, out there is an uudisputable wane ol republican prosperity prevailing there these days, as was proven yes terday, when a miner was "rolled" to the t.me of S71 iu cash The victim accused Barney Hurd of thetheft. out a jury investigation after evi dence was taken, turned Barnev loose, as the latter proved an aliibi, and was not anywhere near the scene. A Michigan woman who has had banfaaad in the state penitentiary for about five years is evidently getting lonely. She wrote to the governor as follows: "Pleez. voir aiageste, let him cum home if for no other rezin then too see nis :1 children wich has baa borne sence he left. Ex change. That sounds like a repub lican prosperity argument. Courier. That sounds to the Journal-Miner more like a democratic stuffing the 'allot box proposition. Bob Prior, whose pretty residence rests so becomingly on the northern crest of Goose Flat, and seems to be somewhat of a sentinel to watch over lesser structures aud catch the full odor of that disagreeably muddv ad dition, is a hard hitter at municipal affairs as they exist today in that country. Hp savs he is not a sec tional agitator, but is nevertheless firm in his opinions that some muni cipal regard should be extended that section, aud further tliau that it must tie apparent to all who care to go down tiiere and take chances of go ing "out of sight," that the evil at present so strongly iu evidence will occur just as regularly as it rains. W e beiieve that the saueiyry condi tions of the city dem tnd a remedy to this nuisance, and if for no other reason than that tlie city council should endeavor to abate it. It is nothing more than a wholesome evil, not only to those afflicted. but to the entire community as well. From .Saturday's Daily.

Murphy today received a teiegrani from Washington, concern ing the rebuilding of Whipple, that is extremely gratifying to him, as well should it be to all of our people. It was from a private source, and stated that it was aot ouiy the desire of the administration to commence work on Whipple at once, but I hat the old post was to be made BOW all over and that a great sum of money would accordingly lie spent, the present appropriation bang but a starter.

But the tide has turned at last, and if the dispatch below shows anythiug it proves that Governor Murphy was right, anil it is to be re gretted that a remedy was not ap plied sootier to relieve, tnat winch places Arizona todav uotoriousl v be fore the nation. The dispatch is as follows: Kansas City, Nov. 11. Federal authorities tire going to take a hand iu suppressing the "industry of min ing frauds.

Ten minutes spent at the Great United Verde, the Clifton works. Tombstone and Bisltee would le of far more weight in favor of Arizona's wlaahnaoa than, all the uuhirated icreage of the territory. It's pretty, nit it don't talk. W- are sorry they ire coming. Governor Brodie has received the following letter from Senator Bev- tndge. chairman of the sub-iommit- hM on territories, dated at Topeka: It is impossible to tell at present vheu we will arrive in Arizona. We will let you know later. Our work is partially laid out. While we appre ciate all intended courtesies, hot the committee after consultation, re juests that nothing be arranged for us iu th nature of reception, euter- aiumeut or otherwise whieh wili take, up our time. The committee will be very busy during the entire -tay in the territory. We will inform you of changes so von can make vour arrangements accordingly.

REBUILDING OF FORT WHIPPLE A Permanent and inviting Military Center. QUARTERS AND BARRACKS TO BE CONSTRUCTED OF BRICK AND THE ENTIRE POST REMODELED. It Will be 3 Permanent Infantry Post and Four Companies and the Band Will be Stationed There Work to be Commenced Early. After seven! months being devoted bv the war depart inanl to the con sideration of the rebuilding of Wfcjp pfo and the aesigaiug of Major Wai cutt to this point as the oliicer in charge, aud on whom rests the re sponsibility in submitting plans and suggesting vari"iis matters tnat go with the reconstruction of this post, the information is given the public that after so long a seeming delay, the work is to be' inaugurated accord ingly, and that befoie Christmas the new post on the old site would be under headway at every point.' While nothing official is yet given out, the rumor is current, however, that the post is to be substantial, commodious and permanent, aud that the old garrison is to lie regenerated in every respect. The buildings to be erected will probably ! of brick, but what disxsition will ie made of the present wooden structures will not lie known until after the war depart ment decides. The grouud plan of the post will be materially altered, and in that re spect the dimensions of the parade plot wili be extended to three times its preeant area, extending further to the south and will butt up against the hill. This will lecessitate con siderable work in cutting and tilling, tiut when accomplished it will le a pretty aud commodious addition in which to maueuvre troops. The plans su'unittetl bv Major Waicutt are said to le ample for the housing of four full companies of in fantry.and in this respect provision is alsounade for band quarters, the belief prevailing that regimental headquarter.- will here lie established aud with that a band will necessarily follow. The appropriation available is Sl'JO.OOO, but this sum. in view of the estimates submitted, will be more thau expended in the carrviug out of the plans forwarded. That the work is at last to be eorn incnced is contained in the tele graphic orders to .Major Waicutt to proceed to Washington at once ou a short leave of absence for final con sultatiou. He will pfofaahty lie per manently assigned here as ihe officer in charge of the work of rebuilding, and will leave on Sunday. It is stated that the rebuilding of Whipple wili occasion the employ ment of very nuurj civilians, and the contract system will prevail iu every department. It is a matter of sincere congratu lation to oar pe-ople mat the ealofts and persistedt efforts of Prescott's friends here aud elsewhere, have !eeu at last fruitfully rnaliasd and that the fierce hatred of many prominent men are behind in the backgnuiud.
