Letter from Jack W. Swilling.
His Ideas Regarding the Election of a
 Delegate.
What He Thinks of Mir Mccormick and
 Governor Stafford

Mir. Mccormick and his satellites having assert cd recently, at Tucson and other places that Jack W. swiling, the founder Of the settlements on Salt River, and man of great influence, had pledged himself to support Mr. Mccormick, in The coming political contest, Mir. swiling has ad- dressed us the following note, contradicting the false report so industriously circulated by McCor mick and his brother carpct-baggcrs, and defining his position on the Delegate question;
 PnGsix, Yavnpai County, Arizona, oct. 70. To he Editor of ne iri;ona Miner
 An old pioneer of Arizona desires ,o say few words to his friends in reference to the election Of Delegate to Congress My vote and influence goes for P R. Brady just because he is an Arizo- nan and because think t the duty of every Ari- zouan to vote against Mir Mccormick. Like many others, 1 voted for Mccormick before, can not do 1t now. He has done nothing for Us, eX- ccpt to make Gne promises, and if he has tried as he says he has, he has failed We have less troops, less mails and less protection. The Surveyor General Is carpet-bag editor, sent here with pub lie money, to support a blackgrIard newspaper, but not dollar to survey our lands. The little Governor whose business it Is to attend to thc affairs of the Territory aBd the whole people, drives over the country in q carriage, with MeCor- mick, paid for by government contractor. Here he has lost the respect of men of all parties, by his course Mccormick tired everybody out with his long twaddle about getting money.order office iu Tucson, and postofcos, but failed 10 ex. plain why he wanted naked savages to vote, or the charges against him of working only for mon cy paid by contractors.
 If you see it, you can print this over my sigma ture 10 let my friends see bow feel. Salt River Is for Brady by great yote-and an honest one no frauds will Dc permitted here.

Letter from John H. Behan.
Political Matters.

WIcKENBURG, Oct. 3l, 1870. To the Editor of he Ari-ona Miner:
 wrote you from Ph9nlx, and suppose you have got the letter by this time. intend to stay here, or at the Vulture mine, until election day 1 think will poll more votes he-e than Tomp kins and Peek both. Brady will get big major ity here. M. Peraito and Joaquin Busly assure me that the Mexican vote of this place will be cast for the Democratic ticket. Mir. Hooker ar rived in town few minutes ago, and is election eering for Mccormick. He tells the people here that Prescott will give Mccormick three votes to Brady's one, which, we all know, is lie. Money seems to be no object to them; they scat ter it around for all that is out.
 Eddie Wells starts for Salt River this evening, in company with Ed. Peck. Peck took out his final naturalization papers before leaving Pres cott, which now makes him, I suppose compc- tent to hold office. If that Is why he has taken them, he might we'll haqe remained an alien, for unless things have changed about Prescott, he has not ghost of a show. J. II. BEHAS.
