1 THE ARIZONA PIONEERS. The Pioneers are taking active steps to bring the attention of the administration to the existing state of Indian affairs in Arizona. They do not expect, simply as a body of men, to accomplish the removal of the Indians, but they desire to start a movement that will bring such a state of affair's about. And who, among all our people can this duty more appropriately fall upon? Nearly every member of this so ciety has at some time passed through just such experiences as the unfortunate settlers of eastern Arizona aire having to day. Many of them bear scars of the hostile conflict -frith the Apaches, and all of them are familiar with history of Indian atrocities in this sun kissed land. The weight of their opinion and influence should alone be suf- ficient to move the government to action in this matter, but inasmuch as they have extended an'invita- tion to the public for a concerted movement) the occasion should be embraced to at least show the de partment the sentiment of our poo pie, if it fails to bring about the re suits hoped for. We do not appre hend a failure, under tne pro gramme laid down. There seems to be a disposition manifested by the present administration to put a final quietus upon the Apache troubles, and while their attention is absorbed with this subject it is the proper time to act. AVe" applaud Hie wisdom of the Pioneers in tak ing the initiatory steps in this worthy cause, and hope that it may bring fruitful results. Tucson Cit izen. THE MEAT WE EAT. A statistician who has given the subject close study estimates that from fifty to sixty per cent of the income of the industrious people of this country is expended for food products, and one fifth of "this, or from ten to twelve per cent of the whole income goes for meat. tfrom this it will be seen that the stock raiser absorbs a very con siderable proportion of the in come of the thrifty peo ple of the United States, get ting approximately $2,000,000,000 for the meat which he grows. Mcnt, therefore, comes second only to bread in order of importance as an agricultural product. This being true can any farmer afford to wholly ignore the production of beef, pork and mutton, and thus have no share in furnishing this one-fifth of the food which the country needs? Is not any sys tern of farming in which the here and flock are ignored resting upon other than sound basis? It can not be otherwise. Exclusive grain farming has ruined more land and bankrupted more farmers than any other agricultural policy ever followed by a considerable portion of our people. National Stock man. CROOK'S MISTAKE. To a gentleman, whom Genera Crook met on the cars the other day, the General remarked that he was aware that he had made terrible mistake in the present Indian campaign. He acknowl edged having been warned in time that the Indians were out, but says he would not believe it until he had been informed of the fact the third time. General Crook claims that he had every reason to believe that there was no danger from the In dians. Not until most of their depredations had been committed would he believe that they were on the war path. General Crook has made a good record heretofore, and his experience- with these devils should have taught him that no reliance could be placed in them While the, General admits his mis take, that does certainly not ex cuse his criminal carelessness iii not investigating the- truth of the reports immediately upon their, receipt. His sorrow does not re store the lives of those who were butchered. Rio Grande Repub lican. " Respectable emigrants will come.
