The fvarms are like tlio-e in Kansas in 1S70 They are the first in Arizona for years. If the bforesaid correspondent was cot so ir9:gni Meant that he is ber.eath the no tice of him who notes the sparrow's fall and whose providence extends even to the worms crawl on the earth, he would probably have suffered the fate of Annanias and Sapphia long before Ibis time, for of all the falsehoods that are sent ovr tbe wiree, the Phoenix cor respondent is entitled to the dipiomA as tbe boss liar. Jt makes little difference to him what he lies alout, too. He wi.l telegraph a falsehood that tnds to in j'jre th credit of the Territory with as mush nonchalance as he will one about a lost mine cr o'her improbable creation of his brain. He attempts to spread himslf all ever the Territory, too, and where he obtains one item tf news to telegraph be creates ten of falsehood. The people of Phoenix should demand i ii removal. He is an injury not only to that town, but to the entire Ten itory. Journal Miner. A NEW INDUSTRY Loa Angeles Will Compete for Arizo na and Mexican Ores.

The jnovement undertaken by the National Educational Atsccialion, through an executive committee, which has eo presented it as to gcia the en dorsement of the press and general pop ular acceptance in advance of this proc amation. The proclamation is as fol lows: Whereas, by a joint resolution ap proved June 21), 1802, it was resolved by the senate and house of representatives of the United States of America in con gress assembled, "Thfct the president of the United States te authorized and directed to issue a proclamation recom mending to the people tbe observance in all their localities of the 400th anniver sary of the discovery of America, on October 22, 1892, by public demonstra tion and by suitable exerjics3 ia their schools and other places of assembly."

W'etmore, the assayer, is re sponsible for the following cnake story, and hb Mr. Wetmore in addition to his skill a an assaVer has alto added to his accomplishments that cf hort!ci.lturcl isis. wherein such vocation would lead him amongst the thick buhs, tangled in3s and piercing briars, where, a writer graphically describep, "at every sep the stranger fears to wake the rat tling terrors of the vengeful snake" so Mr. Wetmore, the reporter looking him square in the eye to see if there was any betrayal of the Gcorg$ Washington principle, proceeded to tdl his snake ftory under the actof the legislature celled the "Hobgoblin act:" "I was out on my ranch a short time since and looking around my gardens and fields, I noticed a black snake three feet long had partly swallowed a rattler or ra' t'.esnake. As soon as the black s. ake eaw me he quickly disgorged bis parti&lly swallowed victim whilst his eyes snapped fire and as quick as a Uish the blacksnake got out of reach whilst the ra t.'er two feet and a half in length whisked himself out of the way apparently unharmed." On another occasion the assayer end horticultural saw a blacksnake from five to six feet long which had partially swallowed a rattlesnake which after wards proved to be two feet lor g. On Mr. Wetmore's approach 1h black snake with ejp Us&hiug as if angered al being interrupted in it9 repast, quick ly relinquished its viytim and rid, whilst the rattlesnake seemed to be hurt about tbe head and dazed. Since that time the b'acksn&kes have the free rnnge of Mr. Wetmore's ranch, a3 he will not kid them, heiookirg upon them as benefactors in the campaign against rattlers. When asked how It was that a black finake could corquer such a desdly en.'ike as the rattlesnake, ha replied: 'That the rattlesnake was twie as quick ks the ratMer in motion. That the blacksnake lift the body on the loop or hoop lik-i morion, whilst the other snakes move in a fashion dragging themselves over the ground. The Silver Question. - Editor Citizen: I notice in a recent !S3ue the estimates of E, O. Leech, the director of the mint, with regard to the amount cf gold and si'ver coin in the different nations of the world, and in the United States. No one caa accuse Director Leech of being espe hlly friendly to free silver apd his statistics and figures are recog nized as authorative, and they are very instructive and suggestive. He says that France has nine hundred, millions in gold end. Seven hundred millions in silver coin, whilst; the United States has only seven hundred millions in gold and four hundred and eighty-seven millions in silver. Now the population of France is about half that of the United States, which makes tbe coin supply there about $30 per capita, whilst in the United States the per capita on an esti mate of a population of sixty millions, which we know is considerably under the nnrk, . is, according to Mr. Laecb. less than twenty dollars. Now just give that a thought. Id view of our enormous business development, and rcntinual great Increase of population and v need wsodar ce larger tbat money tj scarce, busieesi eomparattrelj enicg. 0;jr minea mottly idle aud tbe wealth of ,he country beug rapidly ab sorbed by the few who have ci.puri to lend or take advantages of the mar kets and necessities of the nation. France of late year-1, with suflicct moaey supply, has been more prosper ous thin the United States out th wealth ii mo-e evenly distributed and fev.er mi 1 onairs rave anen ther than in the United States for the same period. To place, us upon an equality today with France wh need this mo ment, accordirg to director L?ech, twelve hundred millions more coir, acci cf silver tlone ah need seven hundred and tbirt ea millions wl i:h is innre than, at the present rate cf production, the Unit? !

Thia mysterious action caused the merchants and others with whom he had been doing business to iavestigate matters, when it was found he owed the men who were employed by him about $1100 and various bills about town am ounting to something over 81000 making an agregate of about $2000.

Shot in the Back by a Cow ardly Assassin. Parties are in Hot Pursuit cf One rhoetiix IIera!tL The long drawn Graharn-Tewksbury feud has at Inst probably been brought to an end eo far as Graham is concerned for he now lies unconscious with a bullet hole through his body which will prob ably result in his death. The facta connocted with the shoot ing this morning are as follow: Tcm Graham was going to Tempe with a load of gram, from his home near the Buttes, and on the way he was fired upon by parties who were hid in the brush, waiticg for him. Tbe bill entered bnck of the left shoulder and came out just under the right ear. Ha at once became unconsci ous a-d ha3 remained so until now, with the exception of a few minutes at a time, w ha he is able to talk a little. A mm by the name of John Rhodes, who is known fo be en ally of the Tewks bury outfit, waa found in the vicinity and at once placed under arrest as an accomplice. Tewksbury was seen going across the country on horseback, in tbe direction of Tonto Basin. A posse waa at once organized and started in pursuit, and they will not return without him, dead or alive. They are a determined set of men and wiil accomplish their purpose if such a thing is possible. Tempe is wild with excitement and there are threats of lynching shouid Tewksbury be caught. It is 6oi J that John Rhodes is also in dauber of violence from the excited peo ple, It is thought that Graham will not live the tiiLit through, as bis wound is cot sidered as f .tal. Liter advices received from Terape this afternoon an toat tbe shooting took p!ac near the Buttes between Mr. Cumming'd and Dr. Grrgg'e. Mis, Greg was milking in ber yard when she heard a report and as she o.'ked up she 6jw the smoke and at tbe sumo tine Graham teti fiom the wagon to toe ground ia an unconscious con dit on. Ti.ea the man who fired the bh-t mounted a horse end putting spurs to it, took off tcruss tte country toward Tonto Basin. Mrs. Grega indentified tbe man that did te shooting asTewksbury. Teksbur was last Eeen by a M-. Frankeaburg, mounted oa a large bay horse and riding as fa&t as possible. Coatrary to the first report Graham was not teken to Tempe, but is at the residence of Dr. Gregg?. Joha RhcdrP, the mm that was ar rested has been hanging around Tempe for several days', and his actions have caused comment, and it is the general Dehef thht he was there to keep watch of the movements cf tee movements of Graham. Rhoces is a brother in-law of Tewkabury by marriage, and they have been tha warmest cf friends. Every available saddle horse in Tem pe has been secured to take pare in the chase after lewkebury, and until the posee is he?. id from the people wiil be in a state of euspeaee. It is the general impression that Tewkebury had a crowd of followers waiting fcr Hm near by, in the event of i posse et irting after him. and that they ar well provided with horses and a'ms to resist capture. . The shioting is one mere of the long list of fatalities which have grown out of the oeadly fued that be gao through cattle stewing in Ton to Basin some five years ngo. Since the beginning of the trouble at least a dozen of lives have been lor-t. Advices from Tempa were n-ived at 4:45 saying that Charley McFarland who was out with th9 posse, bad re turned and said that the trail had been lott. Graham died Ist this afternoon.
