fraudulent and otherwise, to secure
tho accomplishment Of his purpose.
Among the latest and most rascally
WAS his attempt to influence the ac-

curing through his agents, representa-

thousands Of signatures to a certain

with his villainous "royalty" sad

boldly stated In the newspapers at the
time, that those signatures In favor Of
the Sutro-N egley scheme, were OBJ
talnsd by surreptitioss means, the
large majority Of them being openly
bough, at a stated price In Virginia
City, Gold Hill, Carson and elsewhere,
but principally at Virginia. Many
hundreds OF them were purchased for
adrink Of whisky each. The prin-
cipal agencies at Virginia City were
obscure drinking saloons, aud the
agents procuring the ame were paid
for these signatures ut a stipulated
sum each. by Sutro's representatives.

scribed, Crowds OF men would 20 to 4

Delegate Mccormick and the Mili-
 tary Telegraph.

We take the following from the record of proceedings in the House of Represen- tatives on June F, 1S74
 The House being in Committee of the Whole, and having under consideration the Sundry Civil appropriation bill
 Mir. Mccormick said: move to insert the following amendment.
 The clerk read as follows:
 To enable the Secretary of War to eX- tend the line of military telegraph from Prescott to Camp Verde and Camp Apa- che, in Arizona, $4,000: Provided, That the Secretary of War. be, and he is hereby, authorized to pay the expenses of operat- ing and keeping in repair the telegraph lines constructed and operated by the War Department in said Territory, out of any moneys received for dispatches sent over said lines; any balance remaining after the payment of such expenses in any one fiscal year to be used only in payment for the expenses of that year. And full report Of the receipts and expenditures in connection with the said telegraph lines shall be made quarterly to the Secretary of War through the Chief Signal Officer And the Chief Signal Officer shall have the charge and control of said lines of tele- graph in the construction, repair, and operation of the same.
 MT. Mccormick. By act of Congress ap- proved March 3, 1873, the sum of S5OOOO was appropriated for the construction of military telegraph from san Diego, Cali fornia, via Fort Yuma, and Maricopa Wells, to Prescott and Tucson. Arizona The line was promptly built at cost with in that sum, and the proposed line to Camp Verde and Camp Apache can, ac- cOrding to statement from the War De- partment, be built with the sum of S4 900 additional asked for Tn this amendment. This extension will connect with the mili- tary headquarters at Prescott two i'm portant posts, and greatly facilitate mili- tary movements in the Territory. It is recommended by the War Department and by the COmmitte on Military Affairs of this House.
 will only add that the military author ltles agree in pronOuncing the construc- ton of Telegraph lines connecting the frontier posts a measure of economy tO| the government and great advantage in the conduct of Indian warfare and the protection of the people of the border The propositions embodied in my amend ment regarding the expenses and receipts of the lines and to put them under the control of the Chief Signal Officer are in accordance with the request of the War and the Military Com mittee of this House, as the chairman of the committee MT. Coburnl can certify. There Is now no law under which the received for the use of the tele: graph line by the citizens can be applied even to the cost of keeping up the lines.
 MT. Garfield. l think that amendment is all right.
 The amendment was agreed to.

Most of the houses in Yuma are built without any reference to rains, as it has very seldom been known to rain here, except little sudden dash for a few minutes about once a year.

Here is the Presidents order of reduc- tion:
 EXECUTIVE MANSION, July 2l, 1874. It Is hereby ordered that all that portion Of White mountain reservation in Arizona Territory, lying east of l09o 30 west lOngI- tude, be restored to the public domain. U. $. GRANT.
 Hon. k. c. Mccormick writes that the reason why the reduction was not made in exact accordance with the application, was that the Rio BonHO is located differ ently on various maps. The reduction as made restores about thirty-five miles of the eastern part of tue reservation to the public domain, and undoubtedly is all that the miners and settlers care for.
 Gov. Mccormick writes to MT. Pearce that he had just called upon Col. Ford, Chief of the Mineral land division of the General Land office, and was informed that the patents to him (Pearce) would be perfected without further delay.
 Somebody has acted in bad faith with Judge l.. c. Hughes, who on June and 23 was "fulIy authorized to close this nego- " "tiation," and pledged himself to MT. Le- sinsky that "the whole matter will be |" conducted in good faith on our part" This being the case, it was real mean in Mir. Hughes clients" to so abruptly take the business away from him, especially as it seems to have been business suited to his capacity and disposition. If the judge now will come out and tell who those naughty "clients" are or were, we will do what we can to show them up as they de- serve to be. Having taken hold of public business of so much importance to this Territory, and put it in the hands of Judge Hughes for 'consummaUion," itwas long ways from fair to take it out of his hands when he was so zealously trying to con- duct it Gin good faith" That's the way we feel about It.
