A BRIEF SKETCH
Of Hoa
Sana Hughes, as Related
Cltlsea Reporter.
to
The following brief biography of
Hon. Sam Hughes prior to Lis ad
vent into Arizona will be read with
interest by his many friends.
In 1852 he was in Oregon, at Foots
diggings on Cow Creek. These dig
gings were discovered by Foot and
named after him. They passed up
the Bogue River and discovered the
Big Bar. Capt. James, who by the
way was a woman, Tom Bart let and
three others whose names he does
not now recall were of the party,
Shortly after reaching the place the
Koguo Eiver Indians became ugly
and threatened war. The cause
leading thereto was the refusal of an
Indian agent named Abrosio to trade
two of his children for two of an In
dian chief named Sam, who threaten
ed war unless a swap was made.
While the controversy was afoot a
party of miners arrived under the
command of Sefure Field, from
Scratch valley. On the appearance
of these men a council of war was
called and seventeen Indians killed.
One white man was shot through the
hand next day. General Joe Lane,
of Oregon, then came up and took
command. On learning' this the In
dians announced their readiness to
treat for peace and an agreement of
that character was soon made.. Short
ly afterwards he returned to Yreka,
California, with Novell, Garland and
others.
Early in the spring of 1853 news
came from Bogue river that the In
dians had again broken out. In com
pany with twenty others, said he, I
went to the scene of conflict and re
mained to the end. It cost the gov
ernment about 2,000,000. In the
same year Chief John, a noted Cla
math, also went on the war path. It
was in this campaign I first met Gen
eral Crook. He was then a second-
lieutenant, fresh from West Point,
About this time the Modoc Indians
took a turn at the hatchet amd mur
dered everybody who crossed the
Siskiyou mountains and I joined a
party organized to punish them. In
1855 I bought the Mountain house
at Yreka, but later in the same year,
because of failing health, I sold it
to William Bockfellow, who, by the
way, was an uncle of Olive Oat man,
whose tragic death is familiar to all
early Arizonans, and went to San
Francisco. At the latter place I was
advised to try a warmer and dryer
climate and as Arizona was then
receiving some attention, I started
in this direction January 1, 1858, in
company with Hugh Slicer, Sammy
Tibies, Oscar Henkle and Robert
Greyhouse. We arrived in Tucson
March 10th following.
My heatlh was improved decided
ly. In April came a report of gold
discoveries in the Cañada del Oro,
and with others I prospected the
country pretty thoroughly, but not
finding much of value my partners
concluded to push ahead and arrang
ed with me to meet them in San An
tonio, Texas. This I had planned
to do, but in a new country one re
port follows another and causes
more or less detention. The hidden
mine, in the Tucson mountains, was
much talked of at the time, and
nearly every able bodied man in the
country, more or less, took his turn
at looking for it. Then came stories
of rich discoveries in the Plancha de
las Platas, Balas de Cobre, Huachuca
mountains and elsewhere and I de
cided to go no further but reside
here permanently.
The Indians at this time were
committing but few depredations.
The year following, however, the
Apaches became bolder and murders
and cattle stealing were of frequent
occurence but notwithstanding this
there were more people engaged in
agricultural pursuits than there are
now. Arizona Citizen.
The salaries of the TJ. S. district
attorneys in some western districts
were fixed as follows:
Arizona, $1,000; Arkansas, eastern,
$4,000; western, $5,000; California,
northern, $4,000; southern $3,000;
Colorado, $4,000; Idaho, $3,000; Mon
tana, $3,500; New Mexico, $4,000;
Oklahoma, $4,000; Texas, northern,
$3,000; western, $3,500; Utah, $2r500;
Wyoming, $3.000,
Ai Establised Newspaper.
The following from the St. Joseph
Herald is as true as gospel:
There is no business so intimately
linked with the prosperity of a city
or community as its established news
paper. Its success or failure is
thermometer of the locality in which
it is published, it reflects the char
acter of the commercial aud intel
lectual texture of the people. The
failure of a great newspaper is her
aided the world over, and is accepted
as an index to a lack of business push
of the city in which it is publish
ed. The failure of a national bank
or any great mercantile institution
is looked upon by the public as the
result of local or personal conditions
that of a newspaper which has secur
ed recognition as the mouth piece of
public sentiment of a city, or the
pronounced organ of a party,
known throughout the country
the result of the locality it represnts
The advertising columns of a news
paper are the index of the growth of
business and prosperity, and they in
dicate that the city is reaching out
of its curbing. The decline of ad
vertising indicates retrogression; the
the expansion of advertising an
nounces progress. The snap and
vim shown in telling the world of
what you have to sell is positive in
dication that you believe that you
can sell and have advantages the
public will accept if they know them.
A show window is good for the "pass
ing crowd," but an advertisement is
for the world. Newspapers, there
fore, have both a personal and pub
lic bearing. The public also has its
responsibility, to give it a fair return
and support. The newspaper, in
more than one way, is the represen
tative of the public"
Occasional Correspondent.
Pbovo, Utah, Feb. 24, 1896.
Editor Abocs Dear Sir: The
Brigham Young academy is located
here and is a stately building of four
stories in height; it contains thirty-
two ciass-rooms, all oi wmcn are
supplied with the latest modern
school furniture and all the para
phernalia pertaining to a first-class
school of learning. .
Mr. Karl G. Maeser attended last
Sunday evening's meeting in room
D," and delivered quite an interest
ing and instructive lecture to -the
assembled students. At the present
time over nine hundred students are
enrolled upon the books of the B.
Y. Academy; yet there is room for
more aiid more are expected to en
roll ere long.
We have here five students from
your county, and several from
Apache; in fact, from diverse sec
tions oi Arizona, ana irom every
part of Utah, have come young
men and young women seeking ex-
ducation where it is to be found,
with honest work and application.
On St. Valentine's day the whole
school assembled in room "D" to
listen to an address by Apostle
Marion Lyman and Jonathan G.
Kimball, one of the seven presidents
of the seventies.
Judging from present appearances
the school seems to be progressing
along the educational lines, and all
the students appear to be laboring
assiduously to obtain that which
theives cannot steel nor adversity
deprive them of an education.
Beginning with each week's routine
is a lecture by Elder Geo. Beynolds,
upon the Book of Mormon.
Hon. B. H. Roberts delivered his
stated lecture last Friday, night be
before the Polysophical of the B.
Y. A. curriculum. The whole
program was nicely rendered.
Apostle John W. Taylor honored
the school with an able and compre
hensive address upon a subject most
dear to the hearts of the students
education.
The male students are anxiously
waiting for the time when athletics
will become a part of our daily
program. Nothing like good whole
some exercise to put life and vigor
into the vouth. and trive him an in
creased appetite for hard study.
lne general health is good, 11 we
except the numerous bad colds did
you ever see a good one? The snow
has about disappeared, as also the
mud, but the sunshine is fleeting and
somewhat treacherous.
James Little,
Carmack on Marion Butler.
Carmack, of the Memphis Com
mercial-Appeal, has placed on paper
his thoughts and opinions concern
ing Marion Butler, the young Popu
list senator from North Carolina.
which are as follows:
"Marion Butler, of North Carolina,
turned loose in the senate yesterday.
We venture the assertion that no
man that ever sat in that body has
so firm a grip on fame as Marion
Butler. Butler reminds you of
Daniel Webster he is so different
We seriously doubt whether there is
any living' thing, from a man to
bacillus, tuat nas as little sense as
Marion Butler, of North Carolina.
This is why ho will e so famous.
Pefler, of Kansas, got mighty short
weight when he laid in his brain
supply, but Peffer is to Marion But
ler as Jove is to a worm. Yet this
thing can open its mouth and talk
for hours on a stretch, and at a dis
tance of a hundred yards looks al
most human. The way North Caro
lina happend to send this freak of
nature to the senate was this:
motion was pending to send him
to a dime museum; some one in
spirit of fun moved to strike out
'dime museum' and insert 'United
States senate,' and the legislature,
being drunk, and Populist to boot
adopted the amendment, tabled
motion to reconsider, and let it go
at that. Butler will do much to
promote the gayety of nations while
he is here. He is a fountain of folly
that is never at rest and never goes
dry. He is a spouting geyser of hot
mud that will attract visitors from
the uttermost parts of the earth
Men whose batchelor uncles had
died and willed their money to an
orphan, men whose mothers-in-law
have come to spend the summer with
them, hen-pecked husbands, under
takers, Englishmen and all kinds of
solemn' and sunless natures have
been known to look on Marion But
ler and laujrh joyously. North Caro
lina has been noted for its humor,
but the broadest joke it erer sprung
on the broad and hilarious earth is
its freak senator, the thing with the
form of a man, the voice of an ass
and the brain of a bird."
The Pacific Kailroadsr
The Pacific railroads are up for
attention again, and their attorneys
and lobbyists are whining for fur
ther consideration at the hands of
the Government. If anybody
strongly interested in the ownership
of those roads was rightfully out of
jail there might be room for argu
ment as to the proper disposition to
be made of the property, but inas
much as nobody has ever made any
money out of the Pacific roads ex
cept a handful of colossal highway
men, and nobody else ever will un
der their management, it seems as
though this ought to be a good time
to call for 5 new deal. If, as the
miserly and grasping Huntington
a, the Government shall renew
its second mortgage for a hundred
years, it simply means that the
guerilla methods employed for
thirty years in the mismanagement
of the Central Pacific is to be con
tinued for a century under the guid
ance of the residuary legatees of the
present generation of pirates, if in
deed old Huntington does not live
that long himself. Accepting as
true the theory that the good die
young, ana reasoning deductively
that life corresponds in wickedness,
there is a fair chance that the metal-ic-souled
Coll is P. will be scratching
at the doors of the Capitol in 1996,
asking further concessions and gratu
ities. The people of the mountain
and Pacific states who have been
holding up their hands to the
Southern Pacific for years ought to
join unanimously and enthusiastic- j
ally in tne proposition to nave tiie
Government foreclose its second
mortgage and become the owner of
the road, paying off the first mort
gage at its leisure. Here is perhaps
the most available opportunity that
will ever be presented for the ex
periment of Government ownership
and control of railways. Govern
ment railways are habitually sneer
ed at as Populistic or Communistic
chimera, but they are a crowning
success in Belgium, where the cost
of railway transportation is a baga
telle compared with the rates ex
torted by the private corporations
of America. .

service from Spain, most of these
being of Spanish birth. Generally
they hold offices of minor import
ance, such as vice consul and cousu
lar agents, and the compensation of
these officials, being made up solely j
of fees, is so small it fails to attract
suitable persons of Amorican nativ
ity or citizenship.
The Suicide.
Speaking of the suicide of M. D.
Harter, ex-Congressman from Ohio,
the Argus of Salt Lake City, attrib
utes the cause to accute remorse.
After doing all that which he is ac
cused of by the Argus, is it any
wonder he should dio by his own
hand. The Argus says: "Mr. Harter
was one of the rich men of the
country who inflicted the second in
stallment of Grovor Cleveland upon
this unfortunate republic. The
brains and science of the Demo
cratic party (and it hasn't much of
either) was opposed to Cleveland in
1S92. The brains of Democracy
knew that he was a dull-witted,
selfish, phlegmatic egotist, knowing
little and caring less for the . needs
of his country at large, but . the
hairy, unkempt, one-gallused Demo
cracy of the rural districts, who live
in shanties and and drink their
whisky out of a jug, worshipped the
stuffed prophet as a Chinaman bows
down to his Joss, because he was
the only Demociatic President they
could remember. The thick-headed
and thin-blooded votaries of wealth
in the ranks of Democracy crystal
lized and supplemented this wooden
idolatry with an ampio corruption
fund and the golden calf was set up
in tho White House. The subser
quent history of the American peo
ple is a record of unavailing labors
more direful than that of Sisypus,
whose time was employed in con
stantly rolling up hill a huge stone
which perpetually rolled back as
often as it reached the top, and the
infinite prosperity and .opulence
promised to every citizen by Mr.
Harter and his confederates have
been as elusive as the tempting
viands which dangled unceasingly
before the face of Tantalus but
forever receded from his lips. Let
us believe for sweet charity's sake
that Mr. Harter was moved to re
pentance by contemplation of the
misery he had wrought and sought
expiation in death."

The charging of excess fares by
conductors on the several roads in
Colorado, when passengers neglect
to buy tickets at stations has result
ed in much unpleasantness ever since
the system was inaugurated. In all
cases the conductors have given re
ceipts for the excess amount, which
could later be cashed at the
general offices by passengers, but
generally this securing of the refund
involved so much red tape it was
avoided to a great extent, the pas
senger preferring to loose two-bits
rather than spend time to the value
