 JOHN A. RUSH,
 Who is. without doubt, the best man in the ! field. is, unlike his opponents, an old citizen 1 of the Pacific coast, and dN H0i come to Ari- | 1ona al Government expense, or to run for | office Ever since his advent into the Terri l tory. he has been bounded and decried by Governor Mccormick and his friends charged | with being a seccssionist and traitor by those ! who wished, for reasons best known to them selves, to lower him in the estimation of the people But the shafts of malice thus aimed at him have fallen harmlessly at his feet. He has. by his past life in the Territory, given the je to the base charges put in circulation against him, and today tand, faircr with the people than any other man on the track No man in Arizona can say that John \. Rush eyeg wrcnged him out of dollar, and no man can say that De has not worked for tho best interests of the Territory. At his own cX- pen-e, he has sunk shafts lp0n mines, and did everything else in his power 10 develop the country. His lot is cast with Us forever, and every dollar possessed by him is in5csicd in the Territory He has no quarrel with any section or county. and if elected, he will labor 1 to represent the interests of the whole Terri ! tory. regardless of local icalousics, or after considerations Although an mwayenng
 Democrat. he never was and is not now pol
 iticiun. and has not sought office. On the
 contrary we know that had it not been for
 the mportunitie- of friends in every county
 of the Territory. hc would not to day be
 candidate before the people for the highest
 office in their gift. But bcinga good citizen,
 and having the welfare of the Territory at
 heart he has accclcd Co the demand of the
 people. and entered the lists for the purpose
 of defeating a man who is obnoxious Co the
 mass of the people man who hr haa,tcd
 that he could and would make us elect him.
 Wherever lIr. Rush has gone during thcprcs-
 cnt cIuva-s he has been well. kindly and
 nyorably received. In Yuma county, men of
 all parties are rallying Co his support. and the
 same may be said of M3iayc aHd puh-Utc
 The people have faith in hm-know that he
 is huncst-know thot he came to the Terri
 tory at his own expense, for the purpose of
 making it his home, and they are determined
 on sending him to Conyrc-s, knowing full well
 tbat after hi. term of service expires. he will
 return and render an account oi his services
 70 thcu something that has not heretofore
 been done by our Delegates and something
 that will not be done should we be so uulor-
 tuuatc as to send that pink of rascality, R. C, Mccormick. e represent us.
 Voters of Arizona above you have an ont
 line of the character of the three men now
 before you for Congress. and we earnestly i'm
 plore you to pay some little attcntiOu tp the matter. before casting your votes lf you send the right man to Washington. much good may be accomplished for the Territory.
 and it Is for you to decide which of them k . the best. Cast aside all passion and preiu- i, dice, and vote inteligcntly, for upon your se- - lection, depends in great measure. the veal ! or woe of Arizona for the next three years. t ILLEGAL YoTEs.-Wc hope our Democatic n friends of Pima County will see to it that " the Governors people do not elect him by l. ;, legalvotes. Weare told that while in Sonora r. the Governor and his clique made arrange e ments for enpnyiag, and hare siace omp'oys7 o several hundred Sonoranians in the vicinity II of fubac. American citizens should alone sAy e who shall represent them in Washington. E, Is vigiant, Democrats. Upon you mainly, de e ponds the defeat of the " last ur the gang. Some honest Republicans will aid you in ih it good work, and, with aG.ir, square election i- Arizona will redeem herself
