 Fellow citizens, let us endeavor to truly and fairly enlighten our selves in regard to the fitness of men offering themselves for our suffrages, and thus relieve our selves of the imputation of ignor ance, and at the same time let us discard unreasonable prejudice and then when we go to the polls on the 3d of November let us do it with a determination to con- scientiously and honestly exercise the sacred right of American free men and discharge the sacred duty of American citizens.

For Delegate to Congress. HIRAM s. STEVENS :!
STILL THEY COME.

We mean the sovereign people. the voters of Arizona, they are still coming and swelling the ranks Of that grand army that will on the 3d of November trium- phantly elect HIRAMS. STEVENS, the peoples independent candi- date, Delegate to the Congress of the United States. Wherever MT. Stevens goes, in hisquiet and transformations tour through the Territory, he makes new friends. His appearance and conversation tend tO inspire confidence. And this is particularly so with the solid, thinking intelligent voters of the Territory. They are be- coming more and. more satisfied and convinced that ofall the candi- dates in the field or likely to be at this election. Hiram $. Stevens is the man best fitted to represent this Territory in Congress. We say this is a growing conviction. We receive evidence of it from the best men in all parts of the Territory. That demonstration at Tucson last Saturday was very significant. In the most populouS town in the Territory, the County seat of the most populous County and the Territorial Capital; there was held a convention of the peo- pie, without regard to partisan politics. That convention was composed of delegates from every precinct in Pima County, and HIRAM s. STEVENS was o01Q1li. 7ooIsLy indorsed for Delegate to Congress l! At noon on Saturday we received 9 telegram from one of the most prominent citizens of Yuma, the Hon. c. w. C. Powell, giving the above facts. AS the SENTINEL had been issued at g o'clock a. n., we published said telegram in an extra, in the after noon. We say the action of that convention was very significant. It shows bow the people feel and how they will act on the Sd Of November. That feeling is not confined to Pima County. It ex. tends all over the Territory. We don't say that MT. Stevens will be unanimously elected. That is too much to ask and no reasonable man can expect it.
 All men who are of any account in the world have their enemies. We know that we have ours, and yet we can say conscientiously, that we never Intentionally, did any thing to cause any reasonable person to harbor enmity toward Ills. But ignorance and prejudice still exist in the world, and will  continue to exist until the mill iennium shall down upon the earth. We do not admit that any man has right to abuse, vilify and traduce the character of an- other. merely because he differs from him in political opinion, or because he does not agree with him as to the relative fitness ot certain men for office Yet there

LETTER FROM FLORENCE.

| To the Editor Of the Ari201aG ,Se1a- tinel'
 see you have the name of Hi ram s. Stevens at the head of your Columns for delegate to Con- gress. I am glad of it. AS you truly say, MT. Stevens is, above all others, the man for tine time and for the place. Honest, intelli- gent, and capable, a gentleman of sterling moral and social quali- ties, a friend to education, a friend to the poor and the orphans, and a friend to every interest of Ari- zona, and being one of our very oldest settlers he is completely identified with the interests of the people and the Territory, and knows our every want as school. boy knows the Alphabet, and if elected, as he undoubtedly will be, he promises to serve us faithful l ly and to the best of his abili- ties.
 One thing is certain, of all the Candidates now in the field seek. ing the office of delegate to Con- gress, none is more capable or worthy to hold that position than Hon. H. s. Stevens, none is more modest in asking the people for their votes, and no one can or aUiU serve Arizona better and more to the purpose in the Halls of the National Legislature, or re- fleet greater credit on his consti- tuents. Gan we doubt that the people of Arizona will support him? If they consult their own interests, we cannot
 Of course, we do not expect everybody to vote for him, for that would be a miracle that has never occurred in the annals of politics. But we do expect to see him elected, and if we were a betting man we would put up money that he aoiN be elected. This is the way the cat jumps at present. and if we were going to step into the shoes of any candi- date now ranning, we'd prefer to take his chances of being elect ed.
 In his own county everybody has invested in Stevens stock and he will cary it by a handsome ma- ljoritory; this is more than can be said of any other candidate, un- less it is Hardy, who may possibly carry Mohave county, but there his strength ends; while Stevens strength is not confined within the limits of his own county, by any means. In Maricopa, the home of Smith, he is almost if n Ot quite, as strong as Smith is him. self; while from Yavapai, we are assured by many influential citi- zens that he win receive a very large support. AS to Yuma, we believe the matter is settled, and when Tucson and Yuma strike hands, it is very easy to see how the fight will go, and who will come out victor.
 MT. Stevens, proposes to con- duct the campaign in a fair and honorable manner. He does not propose to stuff the ballot box or to buy votes, he has had many votes offered him for money, but in every instance denounced those who offered them with the scorn and contempt, which they merited. In one word, he wishes the people of Arizona to under stand that he does not propose to buy the position to which he as- pire. If he cannot win it fairly and squarely on the strength of his own personal merits, he does not want it. ARIZONA.

POLITICAL PERSECUTION.
Intimidation as Praeticed By Government
Aqenis in alabama.

MOBILE, Ala, Oct. z6.-The prelimin-
arv examination in the great Sumter
County conspiracy case was suddenly
and unexpectedly brought to a close to-
day by the refusal of United States Com
missioner Gillette, "on account Of pres
sure of Other business, to listen to the
argument Of counsel or to name any day
this week when he would do so. The
case was therefore postponed until the
10th of November, and the prisoners al
lowed to return home on their own rec
ognizance. This in all probability ends
the case, since in two weeks the election
will have passed, and nothing can then
be gained by pursuing these men fur
ther.
The postponement is generally looked
upon here as trick of the Commission
er to avaid decision in the case before
election. The whole accusation is OF so
friyolousa character that nobody believes
that Commissioner Gillette, strongly par
tisan as he is, can find any ground on
which to hold the prisoners, and their
discharge before the third of November
would. It is feared, destroy the whole
effect of the reign ofterror that has been
produced in Sumter county by Hester
and Beach, and perhaps cause areacuon
against the Administration party all over
the North. 1t is one thing to detect crime
by questionable expepients, but entirely
another hing to drag men hundreds oil
miles from home to answer frivolous ac-
cusations that cannot be sustained.

Indian Agent John d. Miles writes
IN the Commissioner Of Indian AT
fairs, under date of Cheyenne and Ara
pahoe Agency, 10Th inst, as follows
Couriers are just in from General
Milcs's command, via Camp Supply,
with information that he is in pursuit OF
a large body of Indians, supposed to be
Cheyennes, who are moving in the dl-
rection of this agency. His instructions
TO C neral Neill are to take them pms
oners and hold them until the arrival oi
his command. We suppose this to be
the party struck by GeneIal Mckenzie
on the 18th ult., on the Staked Plains,
and that they are now ready to seek
shelter and rations at the agency.
Two other letters from General Miles,
dated z3d and 24th instant, and also re-
ceived to-day contain the following news
On the 72d instant four young Chey-
ennes came into the agency, and three
of the party decamped before morning
after stealing several ponies The next
day six Cheyennes came in and surren,,
dered to General Neill. They reported
that the main band Of Cheyennes under
GRAY Beard were encamped on the North
Fork ofRed River, near the Adobe Walls
also, that about thirty lodges of Cheyenne
"Dog Soldiers" were then en- route to the
agency, where they would be received
as prisoners of war. The Arapahoes re
ported on the evening ofthe 24th having
seen the Kiowa chief, Lone Wolf, in the
vicinity of this agency, upon which Agen
Miles made the suggestive comment tina
he is evidently deSirous, as are many o.
the Cheyennes, to get into winter quar-
ters soon.
