PRESCOTT, Der. %, 1870.

ED. CITIZEN At Mcdowell and
Phenix, Gov Mccormick was cordial
ly received. At the former place, he
was the guest of Col. Sanford, who
says be never thought Of opposing him
in any way, and prefers his election
to that of any one else. At Phenix,
the former spoke to % large audience,
and was heard with much attention.
He met many old friends, aud made
new ones. 4 number OF staunch
Democrats pledged their support, and
Jack Swilling gave it as his opinion
that he would carry the precinct.
At Wickenburg, the Mccormick
men are plenty and very lively.
Nearly every merchant is on his side,
and his meeting was one of the largest
and most enthusiastic yet held. At
the Fulture mine, the feeling is strong
ly for Mccormick, and he will get a
large majority of the votes. This is
conceded by men Of all parties.
The Governor was met near Pres
colt by number of the leading citi-
zens Of the town, many Of whom OPP
posed him in 1868. His reception was
most hearty. and he was escorted TO
his old house where rooms were in
waiting, and he was soon called upon
by many citizens Of all parties.
The feeling here for Mccormick is
much better than had been reported.
Scores of those who were against him
in the last campaign, are now earn
estly for him, while of his old guard
he seems to have lost not member
A great many of the strictest Demo-
Gratis say they will not, in any way,
recognize the convention which put
forward Brady, nor will they vote for
any man SO ignorant Of this part of
Arizona. They think that McCor-
mick has done his whole duty at
Washington, and that nothing can be
gained for the Territory By making a
change in the representative at this
time.
1t is conceded that Mccormick has a
fair show to carry the county, and the
news from the Colorado river is all
that his friends, could ask. If Pima
county does her duty, he viii be cleo
ted by 3 larger majority than he had
il 1868. j. 0.

McCORMICK'S PLATFORM.

In the brief letter to the now recre-
ant editor Of the Arizonan," in which
Governor Mccormick announced him
self as candidate for reelection, he
stated that he should run upon the
same plain platform upon which he
ran in 1853. Here it is in full, and
we ask, can anything be more in &C
sordance with what the people want
at this time?

THE DELEGATEsHIP

From the San Diego Bulletin, Oct. g.
The Arizonan of October 9Th has
the following:
The San Diego BULLETIN of the
oath has been received. The editor
Mr.. Truman, an honest, sensible man
of Democratic procliyitieS we are
pleased to observe take TO more stocA
in our tricky delegate, the Hon Mr.,
Mccormick
"Of course the Ariz0nan having
forfeited al respect to decency ard
disgraced journalism TO sn extentnevsr
before excelled would not hesitate to
utter falsehoods in order TO create
temporary impressions The BULLETIN
stands for Mccormick as it has always
done. There is not a paper published
throughout the Southern part OF
California, but advocates the re-elec-
ton OF Mccormick. Party considera-
ton is entirely disregarded in this
matter. II; Nc Cormick's political view
are In accordance with the present adj
ministration so much the better for
his constituents. But the Governor has
constantly abstained from meddling|
with party measures. His only desir1
is to advance the interest of his young
territory, and he is the best delegate
Arizona has had or ever will have 70
aid her in congress. Hence nothing but
downright stubbornness or an entire
absence OF appreciation of what's best
calculated to advance the progress of
the Territory will assure the defeat Of
Governor Mccormick.

CONTENIPTIBLE DOOM

CoNTEMPTIBLE DOONER. San
Diego Union says Of him:
"The man who has hitherto been
unable to find terms strong enough to
sound the Governors praises, is now
the abiect tool OF Sylvester Mowry &
Co. And he glories In his shame. 4
more contemplate position has never
been occupied by journalist than
that of the editor of the Aris0na0.
Says the Bulletin of the same city ::
"Dooner, the stupid editor OF the
A4isOaGp, who for the credit of all
Southern Arizona, should long since
have been deposed, was among those
who volunteered to support the Gov
ernor, and even so late as the day of
his arrival IN Tucson, was among the
first to welcome him and congratulate
him on his career at Washington. He
has turned against the Governor be-
cause he could not command the mod
est sum of $1,000 black mail Sensi-
bic Governor, not to listen for an in
slant to such proposition. $500 we
venture to say would be high price
for Dooner withsall of Mowry's old
type and dirty linen thrown in.

mandS OF his constituents throughout
the entire Territory, without respect to

He in like manner kept his constit-
uents constantly supplied with public
documents.
He obtained by law the establish
ment of twelve new postal routes, and
secured service on several.
He secured several new post Offices,
three postal order Offices, and Z. S.
Depository, objects which were only
obtained after great and persistent Ia
Dor.
He secured an advance of from
50, 800 to $1,000 on the judges sala-
ries-a very just act.
He obtained the passage of an Act
confirming the apportionment, and le-
CALLING any defects that were sup
posed to exist in the Territorial Stat
utes, and thereby saved the Territory
from legal anarchy and financial ruin.
He procured the passage Of an Act
charging the jurisdiction Of justices
Of the peace from 800 to $500, there
by speedily and cheaply bringing JUS
tice to the door Of every person in Ari-
IONA.
He hss constantly protested against
the extension of the Pima and Mari
copa reservation, and so far with sue
cess.
He has induced government to di-
vert transportation of government
freight from the Guaymas and Sono-
ra to the Yuma and ella route, there
by largely increasing the business of
Arizona, especially that Of farmers,
teamsters, merchants, and station
keepers.
He has secured the e5ta blishment Of

logical surveys in Arizona, and the
sending Of an experienced geologist,
Prof. A. Eilers, to report upon our
mineral wealth, report that viii be
Of incalculable benefit to the Territory
Besides taking part in many de-
bates, he has delivered three able and
elaborate speeches in behalf Of protec-
ton to our settlers, and for public land
and mineral surveys, and IN each he
set forth the great natural merits OF
the Territory, and at his own expense,
scattered them far and wide through
out the nation.
Through the medium Of public jour
nails and pamphlets, he has done more
than any man in Arizona to disabuse
the public mind regarding the too
prevalent belief that Arizona is des-
ert waste in the main.
He has expended all his time and
money since 1853, TO advance the in
terests of, and improve Arizona, and is
one Of the largest tax payers in it.
For over seven years, ne has devo-
ted his time, money, great ability and
energy for Arizona, and therefore
scores upon scores Of his beneficial acts
