Letters from all over the county express satisfaction at tho action of the Democratic central committee, in the direction of an honest vote. A number of Republicans in Tombstone aro banding together to "cinch" Blackburn, but he is not alarmed. Tin: apportionment of representa tion to the Democratic county conven tion, offers no loop-holes for political jobbery. "A square deal and no jobbery," is the ultimatum of the Democrats of this county and Territory. Delegate Oury will soon shako hands with his constituents. Cochise booming. county warrants aro Dibble is quietly stuffing the bal lot box. FIVE DOLLARS A YEAR The legislative apportionment has been made by tho Secretary of the Territory, and it conveys a sense of mortification akin to distress. By the Yavapai fraudulent census the vari ous other counties havo been literally disfranchised of representation, un less there is sorne remedy, and there can be none without a combination of nearly all tho counties. There can be no redress obtained from tho courts, as they havo no jurisdiction in the premises, but the Legislature itself can act, by a reduction of the number of representatives from Yav apai county, and a consequent les sening of tho evil results of fraud. The Legislature has the power to judge of tho qualifications of those entitled to seats as members, and can reject whoever may be considered as lacking those qualifications. If the injured counties will join together in a determination to robuko the ono which has insulted tho intelligence of the people at large, and struck a blow at the material interests of the Territory, they cannot help but suc ceed. It will be necessary to obtain somo proof of the fraudulent charac ter of tho Yavapai census, and there is more than sufficient timo to secure the necessary testimony. Then, at the assem blage of tho Legislature, it can be readily determined how many members Yavapai county is entitled to, and those receiving the highest number of votes will only be allowed scats. We recommend, that circulars be printed and distributed through all the counties, urging the people to make this matter a campaign issue in tho coming election of members of the Legislature; that .the respective Boards of Supervisors communicate with each other, as to tho best plan of procedure; and that steps be taken to raise tho littlo money required to secure the testimony necessary to prove the fraud. The problem is easy of solution, and inaction can only stand in the way of protection. There is much at stake, in the fact that the most important interests of Arizona and her people are jeopard ized. It is asserted that Mojave and Apache counties must necessarily join hands, at the dictation of Yava pai, but it cannot be believed that the people of those sections are so wedded to a pride of geographical situation as to accept dishonor as virtue. New interests are springing up in both those counties interests that the press of Yavapai havo de clared themselves hostile to and it will be found that tho legislative support of members other than those of Yavapai will be needed. The people of the whole Territory should make common cause against an ap portionment based upon fraud. The Republican journals through out the United States arc attempting a defense of the late profligato Con gress, and trying to shift the respon sibility from the majority to tho minority. This is the weakest kind of cant. Robeson, of New Jersey, who could not be found outside a penitentiary in any other civilized country in the world, led the Repub lican majority by the nose, and was always foremost in tho assaults on the Treasury. Tho Democratic mi nority, under the leadership of Ran dall, fought spendthrift legislation with voice and vote, and only tho strength of the trained cohorts of Robeson succeeded in extorting tho millions from the Treasury. The Republican party is responsible to the taxpayers for the millions so ruthlessly squandered, and the efforts of special pleaders cannot remove the stigma from where it properly belongs. Jake Henkle has received tho nomination for Sheriff of.iravapai county. The Dobson boom must have suddenly -collapsed. Perhaps it is best so. A man who has had a taste of blood is apt to be dangerous when clothed with the power of tho law. Wo wish tho Democracy of Yavapai county success. It looks as though Arabi Pasha is a bigger man than tho English gave him credit for being. The result, of course, will eventually be his com plete subjugation, but the struggle may last for years. A people moved by tho fanaticism of religious belief, are hard to whip. The Albuquerque Morning Jour nal reports tho New Jersey mine, as carrying "a streak of horn silver, about a foot and a half wide, which assays away up." blrange ! Wo always thought that horn silver as sayed about four dollars per ton. 1 I
