IOl, fHIeen hundred dollars rom w. B. and E. E. Hellings as a retaining fee for one year from this date in all cases in which they or either of them may be en- gagged, except cases in which the United States may be party, and cases in which Wm. B. Hooper & Co. may be parties.

 Comment to convince the people of RowelPs rascality after giving the foregoing, would seem super fiuous, yet it should still be impressed upon their minds that before the date of the $500 receipt, there was no hope of having the case brought up for hearing, and that the next morning it was called and q nolle prosequi entered. Can there be man living, with these statements before him, longer in doubt of achy the nolle prosequi was moved and entered: The memorandum significantly opens, and we have seen the original and recognize the penmanship, by the as surance that that party says" Well, reader, you know what 1t says was said, and you now see a receipt from man who can hardly be mistaken for that party.' The amount of that significantly worded memo randum and receipt correspond, and one day after the latter's date, the case came up and was officially closed
 Now, us to the $2, ,OOO in the Tucson Depository. That sum was not there at any time, but $1,5OO was. To show how dishonest Rowell was to the public and MT. Hellings, we quote from the affidavit what he said, viz "As soon as the case was over, they "would leave little time elapse for the thing to settle down, and then "would make the proper motions to have the money refunded, &c.," as is also indicated in the memorandum. About November IT, $500 of that money was ordered paid to the in former in the case, and by some new light or circumstance, 1t seemed that $500 more was found to be due and ordered paid to the same informer about December P. and $500 into the U. $. Treasury Five Hundred, at 6 very late date, was unaccounted for. Lying and fraud are too apparent for dispute, and no wonder that MT. Hel- lings closes his affidavit with this pointed declaration
 Feeling was out of the clutches of men far more infamous and greater curse to this Territory than all the Apaches in i..
 Powell has made great ado about the internal revenue laws, of which he seems to know and practice about enough to benefit himself and rob innocent men; as the affidavit shows, with effrontery unparalleled, he blandly declared to MT. Hellings that he (Hellings) was innocent, and in imitation of the chief of New York thieves, remarked: "But what are you going to do about 1t 7" He discarded law, justice and decency, and with the assurance and mild impudence for which he is noted, intimated that as it might cost him $S,OOO or $1O,OOO, 1t was good business sense to pay $2,0O0 or S3, 1000 and end it. This logic pre- vailed.
 Rowell wrote to the Supervisor of Revenue at San Francisco fearful falsehoods about assessments n this county. Had there been any ruth in what he reported, at least fifty cases, somewhat like that of MT. 1ellings, would have been or now ,ending in the Court in this county, ,ut instead there is not one. Months go. the Assessor and Collector of In ernal Revenue, (both honest, efficient nen and officers), reported to their uperiors that they were satisfied no erson will ever be convicted of vio- ations of the internal revenue laws , Arizona wh;la Rowa11 iS IT z Dis
