Latest ndvices from Arizona leave no doubt that & general rising of the Apaches has, ulready taken place. The tribe numbers nearly 25,000 Indians, throughout, Arizona, New Mexico and the borders of Colorado, doubtlesa, at the present time, muster noacly 6,000 warriors. With such a force, well armed and amply supplied with ammunition from the capture of Fort Apache and sack- ing of the settlements the government will find themselves saddled with a campaign to which the Ute and Sioux and Cheyenne outbreaks will prove to have been mere child’s play. The ad- ditional danger also exists of a junc- tion of forces between the Colorado TIndians and the Southern tribes. The Utes on the Grand river have been restless ever since their removal has been mooted, and it is feared that the and ean ©all for Republican'State Conven~ tion.

Tue report that the Union Pacific has agreed to maintain a close traflic arrangement with the Denver & Rio Grando at Denver is denied.

Now that the council will have its full quota of members at the meeting to-night, the ordinance regulating the traflic In liquors ought to be passed without further needloss delay. ———— Tur steady stream of bad news about crops and harvests on the other sido of the Atlantic inspires a suspi- cion that another corner in grain is forming, or the old oneis trying to unload, Disrarcues from San Franciscothat reached this office at 8 o'clock this morning contain full details of Geun- engagement with the Apaches, According to these dis patches the reported massacre of Gen- eral Carr is untrue. A bloody fight has boen in progress between General _ Carr’s command and a band of Apaches in which seven or eight offi- cers and soldiers and half a dozen scouts and teamstors have been killed. The fight is still progressing in the ncighborhood of Fort Apache, but General Carr is holding his own, and if the troops sent to his relief reach there soon his command will be rising of the Apaches may incite them to ingurrection. Should this happen, the San Juan and Gunnison region and the adjacent country in Southern Colorado be at the mercy of the savages. The Apaches occupy a territory is a desert empire in itself, impassa- ble to an invading force and peculiar- ly favorable to the methods of Indian warfare, Its rugged crags, pathless wastes, dark ravines and secludefl canyons afford a battle ground far superior to the lava beds of the Mo- doe warriors and in which the troops will be forced to fight against fearful odds. The climate, also, will seriously op- erate against a speedy termination of the war, The winters are nover se- vere in Arizona and food and forage in abundance will be near at hand for the Indian forces. The plan, 8o suc- cessfully adopted in other portions of tho west, by which rebollious tribes, cut off from food and water, have been starved into sullen subjection, cannot be carried out in Arizona. In the worde of General Crook, a single squaw can gather enough mes- calplants in a day to provide a family’s sustenance for the entire year, while the Apaches, through severe training, have learned to live on the scantiest rations of water. Well armed and equipped, with a thorough knowledge of the country, and aided by mem- bers of the tribes scattered through two territories, the Apache warriors are likely to prove more than a match for the scant force which at present can be hurried forward to the seat of war, Meantime, the inhabitants of Ari- zona and New Mexico are in a state of the greatest peril. Ranchers are abandoning their 1arms and miners their prospect holes in a race for the nearest settlements. Many. of the camps are slimly inhabited and scant- ily furnished with food and ammuni- tion to withstand a siege. Even the larger towns are poorly prepared to ward off an attack from such a large body of Indians as could be mustered on the San Carlos reserva- tion. Troops are being hurried forward from the Department of the Pacific, but the soldiers at the imme- diate disposal of General McDowell will hardly be able to cope with such a large force of hostiles. Voluntoers composed of miners, scouts and sot- tlers may, however, be able to hold the savages at bay until needed rein- forcements arrive. This at present woman’s shoes 82 at one place and €1 25 at the other. It v.ill{be difficult to prevent workingmen from buying goods’on eredit, providing anybody is willing to soll to them in that way, and the companies may make it un- profitable for anybody else to sell on credit and so preserve a sort of mo- opoly of the credit trade to them- selves, but they will be required in the first instance to pay the entire amount of the men's wages in cash, and let them settle their store bill af- terward, The outcome of the new law will be a material reduction in prices and a marked increase in savings. —e Eastery journals are calling atten- tion to the condition of Capt. Eads' Mississippi jettics, for which the gov- ornment has already expended nearly £5,000,000., Capt. Eads drewa large sum of money two years ago on the statement that the ship channel es- tablished by him at the mouth of the Mississippi was 600 feet wide and 30 feet deep. During August an English steamer drawing only 23 feet of water dragged the bottom of the channel for 200 yards, and four captains testi- fy that the channel is barely 150 feet in width, instead of 600 feet, as required. 'T'here is some talk of a congressional investigation of the matter at the next session, Such an investigation would doubtless atford an opportunity for an eastern lobby to protest against further expendi- ture of money for the improvement of western rivers, on the ground that the Mississippi experiment has not proved a puccess, If the channel of the river has not been maintained at the proper depth the fault lies with Capt. Eads, who was handsomely paid to accomplish that end. No intelligent person believed that the mere location of the jetties without some snbsequent dredging would keep the channel in the Middle Pass open to a depth of thirty feet. Such subsequent dredging Captain Eads was paid “to perform, and if it has not been accom- plished he should be held to a strict accountability. The improvements at the mouth of the Mississippi have proved far too valuable to be allowed to lapse at this late day for want of proper attention, They have shown the great influence for good which an open watecway in the interior of the continent exercises over trade in re- stricting freight tariffs and furnishing o free outlet for the productions of the great west. DaN Voormuis has now been heard from on tho question of presidential disability, Dan is a profound ex- pounder of constitutional law. A few was the only legal currency in the land, and his views of the disability problem are just about as sound as his delusions about irredeemable cur- rency. GovenNor HAwkins, of Tennessee, has lately pardoned a number of con- victs, Within the last three weeks, threo of those pardoned have been arrested for burglary. Another strik- ing proof that the free exercise of the pardoning powers is generaily less a charity to the public than to the prisoner. Tae Denver Tribune fecls called upon to remark that: ‘‘The regular bulletins as to Dr. Bliss’ condition are interesting because of the occasional and incidental seferences they contain to the president. most as much an object of public anx- icty as Dr. Blisss’ seems to be the only hope of protec- tion from o gencral massacre of tho Arizona settlers. WonkiNaMEN all over the country will be pleased to learn that tho now law prohibiting the payment of wages in store orders went into effect in Pennsylvania last Thursday. In that state, as in nearly all the manufactur- ing rexions, 1t had become customary for the corporations employing a large number of hands to have stores at which the workmen were required to do most of their trading. Although the factory hands were at liborty to trade where they pleased, the fact that their wages were in part made up of atore orders, compelled them to buy their goods at the company store, They had credit to the full amount of their current wages, and the store bill was generally large enough to eat up 9he entire weck’s wages when pay day came. This “‘truck system” or *‘calico and molasses”” plan was expensive to the laboring men, by encouraging extrav-. agance in purchases and keeping up high prices for the merchandise they most needed. The chief of the bureau of stato sta- tistacs gathered a large body of figures showing the working of the “‘truck system,” and it was from information contained in his report that the law that has just gonoe into effect was fram- ed at the last session of the legislature, The overcharge for goods was found to average from 10 to 25 per cent Thus at the company’s atores in & Westmoreland county vil- lage the cost of & mack of flour was $2.10, and at outside stores $1.90; sugar 12} ocents at the former and 7 at the latter; a pair of Evex in France it is unsafe for two trains going in opposite directions to attempt to pass each other on the same track. The shocking railroad accident near Liyons doesn't differ very materially from similar disasters on railways in this country. We nave not heard that the rail- road managers rushed to offer dele- gates to the Farmers' Alliance at Lincoln free passes. There is a great difference between a farmer member of the legislature and a farmer dele- gate to the State Alliance. Berore the street railroad ordinance is put on its final passage, the council should insert a plank that will prevent imposition on the patrons of the road such as was practised last year, in doubling the tariff during the state fair week.

Private Dalzell's Reminiscences of Garflield. o the Editor of The Chicago Tribune, Catowerny, 0., August 27.—Just one year before he was shot, almost to an hour, President Garfield wrote me the following letter: Mextor, O., July 2, 1880.—My Dran Darzery: - Yours congratulating me on the result at Chicago is received, and should have been answered sooner but that 1 was 8o pressed with calls and correspon- dence that I could not find time to do so. 1 knew you would rejoice at my nomina. tion, but to e there is something sad about 1t all that I suppose neither you nor any man in the world can understand but myself, But if any man in the world has the support of true friends I think I have, -at least my correspondence seems to say 80, Asever vours, J. A, GARFIELD. About ten days beforethe president was shot I wrote him asking him for his photograph. It came Friday night July 1, 1881, and that very night I had it framed and hung on the wall in my library, Call it foolish if you will, T cannot help it, but I felt that I could not sleep that night until I had it framed and hung up beside the pictures of Hayes and Lincoln, I state theso singular facts and coinci- dences familiar to all my neighbors, yet I do not profess to see anything in them beyond the facts. When Geu. Garfield was here in 1877 and made three speeches in one day, concerning which I have written you fully, we had several interesting conversations, All that I can now re- member of interest at this time was what he told me of the attempts that had been made, or rather threatened, against his life and that of President Hayes. President Garfield said that sometime before the close of the Electoral count in 1877 (the spring before this conversation) some of his f'uung friends in Washington came to him and told that a conspiracy had been formed to kill him. The general at first treated the statement lightly, thinking that the report was merely sensational, and grew only out of the morbid state of public feeling there at that crisis; but when he came to ex- amine it more closely he said he found but too true. His young friends armed themselves to the teeth, met him at the Capitol cvery day at the close of the session, and took him home in a covered carriage, and next morning escorted him back to the Capitol in the same way, until the Electoral Commission finally ad- journed. *‘It was felt,” said the gen- eral, ‘‘that if T were called, the demo- cratic house would never consent to fill the vacancy caused by my death, and so all peaceful methods for set- tling the great yuestion of the presi- dential sucession would be atanend.” T told him that I had watched Gen, Grant and Mr. Hayes leave the White House on the morning of the bth of March, 1877, and go to the in- auguration, and seen him and Sher- man riding in the next carriage to them, with no little alarm and appre- hension, ““Yes,"” said he, quietly, looking at me solemnly and silently with those two deep blue eyes of kindness, ‘‘and there was good cause for apprehension that morning. Do you know that after we left the White House mes- sengers warned President Hayes that he would be fired on at Willard’s? 1 passod that point with no little appre- hension, Then came a message that he would be fired on down about Four and a Half street, but that point was safely passed, and after the in- auguration we all returned to the White House safely.” “‘But, Gereral,” T said, ‘T am sure you yourself were not afvaid?” **Well,” he replied with a subdued smile, ““I felt a little more comfort- able when we returned to the White House, and T got my overcoet off.” The only other time I ever heard Gen. Garfield refer to any violence that had been offered to him was in a quiet chat 1 had with him in Lancas- ter, O., after his return from Boston that year. 1 remember the very words he used—for who that beard them in his deep, strong voice, so carnestly uttered, with so little un- kindness, so little resentment I mean, could ever forget them? “I had never been in Boston much, at least had never had a chance to make a square speech there before to those fellows. You know how crazy a por- tion of the people down there were just then on the greenback question, Ben. Butler's demagogary had aroused the worst classes to the highest pitch of anger against the Republicans, and against me particularly. I was to speak in Fanueil Hall. 1t was a great occasion, 1 was advised that numbers of the best men from Harvard and the literary circles would be there, and I was also informed that Ben Butler had hired 500 roughs to mob me—at least to interrupt me. 1 took the stand, and the great hall was packed full. Some of those fellows expected me to put on a pair of glasses, unroll a manuseript, and read off a finely- |;ru|qued speech. But Idid nothing of the sort. Tsaw those fellows of But- ler’s glaring at me,and I just rolled up my sleeves and pitched into them, Of course there was but one question the finances and currency. I had not proceeded a minute until one of But- er's men smpped up and put a ques- tion and the rest of them huwlet{. 1 told them to keep quiet a minute and I should answer him. I did so as well as I could, and then up jum an- other big ugly fellow and put his ques- tion. That Iulw answered as well as 1 could. This was kept up for some time--an hour or so, covering the whole field of issues made up that fall between the greenbackers, demo- erats and republicans. At l”“&'li- growing tived of it, T stopped short, and told them that T had treated them fairly, and asked them now to be quiet and interrupt me no further. Aftera little flutter their sense of fair play induced them to be quiet, and they yelled for me to go on. 1 saw I had them, and I proceeded to finish my speech.” Do you know,"” he said, “‘that that was the best speech of my life? 1 owe it to Ben Butler to say that, Af- ter the meeting some of the old men of Boston came to me and told me they had heard Webster, Choate, and Clay there, but that I had made the best speech they had ever heard in the grand old hall. And o I had no reason to feel angry at old Ben, for if it hadn’t been for the interruptions of his men, T should searcely have got stirred up enough to do half as well as Idid.” Private DarzeLs, Physioal Suffering. ne can realize, except by personal experience, the anguish of body and mind endured by sufferers from dy<pepsia, in- digestion, constipation and other diseases of the st Burdock Blood Bitters are a positi re for this direst of all diseases, Price 81,00, trial size 10 cents, cod-w, FARMERS AND MECHANICS, If you wish to avoid great danger and trouble, besides a no small biil of expense, at this season of the year, you should take prompt steps to keep disease from your household.
