The weekly Arizona miner., 1868-12-19
A Vail from the Bondholders.

~ has its bondholders, money sharks and treas ury robbers. At present, these vampires and their chief reside at Tucson, little adobe town near the Mexican frontier, with a dead past and no hope for living future, except the vain hope of it's remaining the seat of government of Arizona, a position it attained by getting down on its marrow bones and pledging itself 10 support our present Cover nor Richard C. Mccormick, for Congress. Well, these sharks are getting hard up for money, and their walls in the sickly organ through which they communicate with the people are piteous. They tell us that on the first day of November last, the Territory owed S24,O52.o9, but do not publish the re. port of the Treasurer. nor that of the Audi tor Why is this Are they afraid to let the people see in what manner the debt has been increased since last year The organ cannot satisfy taxpayers by merely telling them that the report of the Territorial Treasurer is an taierestiag document.' for os that they are pretty certain. Neither will they accept the lame excuse that the report of the Treasurer is too lengthy for publication in its columns This is its favori.c excuse for not publishing documents which It suits His Excellency the Governor Richard C.. Mccormick, to suppress. They will recollect that this was it's excuse for not publishing the important opinion of Judge Backus, in the Qzo Harraato case, and they will also re. collect that the MINER, which is not publish ed at the bogus capital of the Territory, and which. in size, is not much larger than the organ, found room for and did print said Opinion, the Governors Message and many other things, in one issue. It can find space to islander it's neighbors and praise Richard C. Mccormick, the Bondholder, for his Urea son to the people and the Organic Act of the Territory, but it has no place in its columns for matters of the greatest moment to the people of the Territory What an organ what Governor.
 The Bondholder, or some hireling for him in the organ of the 5th instant, fortifies him self behind Pima county, and says, substan tially, to the other counties: Pima county pays more taxes than all of you combined and as know that you are able to pay more intend to make you do it through the me dium of my bogus Legislature. The warrantt which I allowed myself, for printing, anC for which Uncle Sam also paid me. for read ing the proof of the Howell Code. bool that now think should be destroyed on ac count of its worthlessness, for "library which cost me next to nothing. but for whicl charged the Territory good round price for seal, and for various other things, ar now due, and, as l am about to leave tn Territory, having got what came after, want the cash for my warrants This is fair interpretation of the wall of His Excel lency for the peoples money. He then zoe on, in "his usual happy style" to praise tn people of Pima for electing him Delegat, and lampoon the people of Yayapai for thei obstinacy in not allowing themselves to | led by the nose into the trap which he Ina set for them.
 The people of Yavapai pay their tax, cbeerully, and there is now in her treasur large sum belonging to the Territory, whic the Bondholder can have if his Territori Treasurer will order it sent, at his own risl to remote Tucson. He then launches fort his thunders at our Board cs supervisors ft not levyiDg tax of 50 cents on the SlOO, fe Territorial purposes, in accordance with bi said to have been smuggled through th Fourth Legislature by himself and his tool the existence of which neither the Supery sors nor the members of the Legislature wei aware of until after the taxes for this year Ina been levied
 The taxes for this year are not entirel collected yet, and it is a serious question wit some people whether or not they will pa Territorial tax at all. A Judge of the Sl preme Court has decided that we have [ Territorial Government, and we cannot biau people for refusing to pay out their har' earned money on the order of what is in tl opinion of the law, a bogus government. l say the least, it looks as though the Cove nor, who is responsible for this state of affair wanted to gull deluded people still furthe by bullying them through his organ.
