A Wise Prophet. A. correspondent of the Alfa Colifor- nia writing from here, who signs him self "Tucson," but whose usual signa ture is S. IT., gets off the following : " The political campaign ooenl here by a speech from Hon. E. C. Me- Cormick, ot aoout two hours, on the evening of the 5h. .non. eyivesrer luowiy rennet! to him on th evening of the 6ih. Both speakers' presume friends equal satisfaction. Mr. I-low ry suoko an hour, and made a verita ble sensation by r.-adhig a ljtter f.om McCo-mick to the Attorney Guiiural of the Unit jd 6'tates, asking him for. a decision that the Pimos and Marico pas, Papagus, and tame Apache In dians should be allowed to vote, and in time for the ruse1 election. Of course, among a fi on tier people such a letter is vei y damaging. Both gen tlemen seemed to understand their au dience. Let the American Eagle alone, and make a clear, easy, ilu -nt talk. The indications from all pa"t.s of the territory are that Brady will beat McCormick bv a heavy major ity." This is characteristically inaccurate. No sensation whatevar was created hy the reading of McCormick's letter of 1S6S to the Attorney General, which we have already published in full, nor did it ask for any snch decision as this corresuondeut asserts. It was simnly an niquiry as to whether by the new franchise law and the various amend ments to the Constitution, the status of Indians (not taxed) had been changed. Among frontier, or any other people, such a letter could not be damaging to anyone. The prediction of Brady's majority is in keeniiitr with the era in e of brcr so basely played by S. M. and his par tisans. We are surprised that the Atta should give place to the letters of a correspondent so unreliable, and whose statements are stamped with so much prejudice. The course of that journal is often inconsistent, but we have nev er known it more so than in the treat ment of Gov. .1cCormick during the present campaign. Wo happen to know that the I'l fro has no better friend in Arizona or Washington than the Governor, and yet S. M. has been al lowed to misrepresent him and his prospeots ad libitum, and the Atta edi tors well know that S. M. is his malig nant enemy. The Alta has lost friends all over the Territory by its course, and wo can not do less than advise the people to drop a journal so ready to publish what its editors must know to bn false and malicious in the extreme. Military Matters- Gen. George Stoneman, Commanding D partment of Arizona, accompanied by Major M. Cogswell, Special Inspector, and Lt. J. L. Johnson, arrived in this city on Sunday afternoon last, en route to Drum barracks, from a tour of inspec tion through the Department. Gener al Stoneman and party left Proscott Oct. 18th, and successively inspected tho posts at Date Creek, Colorado, Fort Yuma, and Yuma Depot, coming to ban JJiego over the Fort Yuma urnpike Eoad. On Monday, Major Cogswell inspected the post at this place, and found the same in excellent condition. Gen. Stoneman and the oificcrs named left for San Pedro on Monday afternoon by the Orizaba. San Diego Union, jSrov. 8. nt The 2nd number of the ArizonaCrr izen, published at Tucson, has been received. It present s not only a hand some appearance, but abounds in news of general interest. Its editor is Mr. John Wasson, a gentleman of decided ability and journalistic experience. We well remember the Avalanche a paper published at Silver City, Idaho Territory, which under the control of Mr. Wasson was the most extensively quoted of any journal on the coast. He afterwards engaged in publishing one of the leading Oakland dailies. and for years has been the able cor respondent of tho 2s ew York Tribune and San Francisco Bulletin.
