The weekly Arizona miner., 1868-08-29

'tT ! try and muster enough courage to flee the | music whenever 1t suits his convenience.
 TIE Aripoaan is continually prating about our hatred oi, and low filings Gts stereotyped phrase) at lhe people of Pima county. Now. Ne have said some things we should not have said but have never said as much as has De Long and Mccormick Remember, Mr. Delong, that yon have said that gamblers. thieves, robbers, etc, ruled the roost in Tucson. and that they should be driven out. We have never copied an item from your paper, to the effect that monte, faro. whisky, etc, alone contributed to the prosperity of Tucson, and sneeringly asked, were all these things necessary to the success of Tucson" but the Governor has. The MINER copies frequently items relating to the advancemento of Tucson and Pima county, from your paper. but you never do so by the MINER and is section. The MINER has gone to you in exchange but the Ari-onidR has not come in return. Now, once for all. we tell you that we have nothing against the people of Pima coanty; your representatives beat us out of the capital by buying up the Governor and some members of the Legislature; they have deieated the wishes of a majority of the white people of the Territory by electing base man to Congress, yet we and our people forgive you and yours. The Territory is plenty large to hold the people of Pima and Yayapai counties, and for patience sake stop this demagogical clap trap and let each section work out its own sal vation without having to wage war with the other as well as with the Apache. We do not wish to keep up the wrangle; Mccormick is elected, and should he accomplish anything for the good of the Territory, will give him credit for it. We publish a newspaper, for subscribers; you publish an organ for one nan and bis clique, and, we suppose he pays you for filling all your | space with praise of him; you have good thing
 no doubt hut then, you know. your so,d is not | your oten" while you do so, and if you would take a little friendly advice you would let Rich ard paddle his own canoe, and fill your very small paper with clippings from the MINER, if [ you can't write, and you viii have more subscr- bers, and need not threaten the few you have with exposure of their names in your columns for not paying their subscription. When you fall in love don't tell your readers about it. they will laugh at you and say you are "soft" Don't Try to injure the MINER ny saying that we have cut down the size of the paper, raised the price of subscription and advertising When you talk this way people are apt to pronounce you a fool and say it is jealousy that inspires such "low filings" You must know. as well as do our readers that when we bought the MINER. out of sixteen columns of advertising in it, but oae-haf column was what printers call live ads" and that exchanges dead-heads and all, there were but seventy-fve names on the subscription book.
 fOu must also know that when Governor Me COrmick fixed his prices the paper was published
 but twice month, and besides, he printed it for glory, tO defend :" his administration abuse the military. back Congress in one issue and praise the President next issue. Then, '' loil u man and original Republican, as he says he Is and always has been, hc courted the Democracy and was very sweet on southern men, besides.yOu know. he wanted the MINER to puff himself and to use it for an imprint to the laws printed in San Francisco, out of which he always managed to
 make nice little dab of mOney-out of pure
 patriotism and love for his bustedn country.
 Then, again, you know, our paper is printed
 upon 0hhe paper, and contains every week. twice as much reading matter as yours does
 which is read by four times as many people as
 read your paper. We have paying subscribers in Tucson; you have none in Prescott but you have several deadhead subscribers here. and no doubt, they write you those truthful let ters, extracts from which you publish. Hoping that you and all other blind pups in Pima county will soon have your eyes opened and see Limber Dick" as others see him. we will send up prayer for your conversion 10 the
 manly patbs of virtue, honor and truth
