NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
To the Democracy of Arizona.
TE,HE DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS OF

NNHE DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS OF \ the Seventh Legislative Assembly of Arizona Territory, held a meeting on the | 10th day of February, 1873, at Tucson, for the purpose of ta king the iniatory steps | for the organization of the Democratic party of thlS Territory; at which meeting, among other things, they appointed Ter ritOrial Central Committee and fixed the | first Monday in May, 1874, as the time and | PheniX as the place for hOldidg the nrSt the same time appointed me chairman of said committee.
 Within the past few weeks have been urged by Democrats from the various Counties of the Territory, as Chairman of said Committee, to address the Democracy of the Territory, calling their attention to the action of the Democratic members of the Seventh Legislative Assembly as afOre- said.
 It would be the duty of the Territorial Central Committee to meet and fix the representation, to which each of the sev- er;l counties would be entitled in the Ter ritorial Convention, but for the basis fixed by said meeting at Tucson in forming the Territorial Central Committee. Said Com mittee was formed by giving to Pima county, ' members; Yavapai, members; Maricopa, members; Yuma, members, and MOhaVe, members. This seems to me to be so nearly equal and just that have thought proper 10 advise that the
 
 great inconvenience ill converting the Gen. tral Committee) accept it as the basis of representation in May next.
 AS a memb Der of the Democratic party, deSirOuS of it's organization, 1 would urge upon the Democracy or the various coun- ties the duty and necessity of prompt ac ton in this regard. The time for the meet ing of the Territorial Convention in May next is fast approaching, and 1t behOoveS us if we would thoroughly organize, to see n at our respective Counties take such steps as will secure the attendance of delegates in said Convention. l see no good reason why the delegates to the May Convention, may not be selected, either by the County Committee Of the respect i've counties, or by County Convention, as may best suit the Democracy of the par ticular county.
 In conclusion permit me to- say, believe the time to be most prOpitiOuS for organi- Zation and that with organization success is almost certain; without it we can effect nothing. That organization is essential to the success of the party, is a proposition so paipabie that no argument need be ad- duced to support 1t.
 Fellow Democrats: Let us work har- moniOuSly for the success of the party and the good of the country. Let no local prejudice divide us. Let us select our best men without reference to their particular locality. Let us select good and true men devoted to the best interests of the Terri tory -men whose interests arc with us, and who are of us, and we will be ENTI- TILED to succeed and WILL succeed.

THE California press is paying some proper attention to The San Francisco Chronicle and its proprietors.

Right here in Tucson, no other paper is so ut terly detested as The Chronicle, and many who recently subscribed and paid for it year, have given it to those who would pay the postage, and others let it lay ofnd unopened.

IN pursuance of orders directly from the war department, the work of building Camps Lowell and Grant is practically ,xippped. Of course whatever labor can be
 De by the troops may be continued, but < 'jtt 3this nothing must be done whereby a dollag of cash liability will be incurred. The order was received at the Tucson de pot Idst Saturday, and it gives notice that no further remittances will be made on account of the $3O,OOO formerly apportion- ed to build Lowell and the S2O,0OO to finish Grant. This order may also be interpret ed to mean that the indebtedness already incurred by contractors and unpaid to them, will not be paid until after Congress shal! make the necessary appropriation. The troops are nearly all in the field and hardly enough are in camp to do neces- sary daily duty, much less do any new work on quarters.
 The New York press rave for economy but demand the completion of their new postoffice; the patriotic and economic press of Washington, Cincinnati, Boston Chicago, St. Louis and San Francisco is initiating that of New York.

EARLY in this month, greenbacks were selling at Guaymas, Mexico, at 9S cents pS 36llar in coin. This is an item of pos sibYe interest to our people who have busi- ness down that way. As this extraordin- ary price has been occasioned by the American trade dollar combined with the per cent. export duty on Mexican coin and it's cost of transportation over green backs; the rate will probably be maintain ed until the Mexican government abolish eS the export duty on its coin.

NEws has been received in Tucson that the designation of Capt T. J. Jeffords as agent of the Cachise Indians, h.s been accepted at Washington and notice thereof receivNd at the agency; also that Cachise insists \that he will not leave the reserva- tioG>s9A that there are Indians on it over whom M has no controlling power; also that he will give timely notice should any determine to leave. We have no con- frmation of the report that an order was out from Washington which directs that the Cachise Apaches shall be subjected to a count and roll-call as on the White Mountain and Verde reservations, and that force of cavalry was en route thith- CT to enforce the order. In disturbed periods like the past few weeks, all sorts of rumors are put in circulation, and often many that appear probable prove groundIess.

The DIFFICULTY between Ex-Governor
Yarmouth and one Byerly at New
Orleans is the occasion for the following
telegram dated New York. Dec. %:
A New Orleans specisla says: Governor
Yarmouth presents no other signs of his
late contest with Byerley than that of a
piece Of court plaster over the left tenn
pie. He complained, however. of his
arm and shoulder being badly bruised.
He says that several days ago he pub
lished courteous letter in answer to
the proposition made by the Bulletin to
re-establish the Star cars. This letter
showed that the Conservative party did
not sanction that recommendation. He
took the letter to the Bulletin and saw
Byerley, the manager, and Jewell. the
editor. Jewell objected strongly to its
contents, and Byerley told Yarmouth
that if he published that letter it would
ruin him.

THE ABANDONMENT OF CAMP
HALLECk.

The recen: murders in Nye county
serve to remind Us of the ever-presen;
Danger, TO the white settler on the ex-
treIne border, from bands of rowing IL
dams; and the too weli-known fact that
when the Indians are without any re-
straint and feeling free Of danger from
an adequate force OF armed white men
they will occasionally yield to the
savage impulse to slay such unprotected
wbite men as come within their reach 2,
makes the experienced frontiersman OBJ
,ect to any diminutiou of restraints or
abatement of vigilance tending to keep
the Indians from committing acts
OF violence and Ilociished Moreover,
The experience OF the bortierer only too
fully jlsrifes his apprehsnsiveness of
the danger OF his own despoliation of
docks and herds at the hands CT the
purIoiuiug red man, ii these wholesome
restraints aIe not kept constantly within
governing distance OF his wild neigh
Sors. We notice that the Steer STATE
enters an earnest protest against the pro-
posed abandonment of Camp Haileck-
It having been stated in the Associated
Press dispatches that there is hkeli-
hood of the abandonment OF the present
system, Of frontier posts III Nevada, and
tie substitution therefor, Of one central
military pos. az Carlin, the Silrsr STATE
Saws:
There IS probability OF a military
most being established on the Central
Pacific Railroad, near Cariin. The Sec
rotary of War. at the suggestion OF Gen
cral SchOfeld, recommends the breaking
up in general of small military posts, in
Gliding Camps Hallcck aud McDermit,
with view OF locating new and larger
post near thu place above mentioned
Camp NcDermit is situated right in the
heart OF an Indian country and on the
main thoToushfare between the railroad
and Idaho, and the withdrawal of troops
from that post will he the signal for the
renewal of Indian warfare and depreda-
lions on tine northern frontier of Seva-
da. 4 few years ago the Indians near
the Owyhee river were the most trouble
some in the State, and as the outlaws
from the Piute and Bannack tribes
range in that vicinity it can scarcely be
considered safe to withdraw the protec-
ton to settlers and teamsters afforded by
the troops at Camp McDermit. This is
= matter which concerns the people of
Wiunemueca, Silver City and South
Mountain. between which places there is
considerable business, and if the safety
of travellers. Transfers and settlers is
Jeopardiized by the carrying out of the
Recommendation of the Secretary of
War, the people interested should petit
ton the Legislature to memorialize the
proper authorities against the abandon
ment of Camp McDsrmi. The main
,horougLfsre from the Central Pacific
Railroad to Idaho and Eastern Oregon
leads by Camp NcDermit. Over this
road mails. express. and passengers are
-arried daily. All the supplies for
southern Idaho are also hauled over il,
and as the route is sparcely settled it be-
hoOves those who are interested to p-o-
test against the withdrawal of the troops
while there is possibility of the IN
