FINAL SETTLEMENT.

=. u" u WM. t. GAMMON,
july29-5t Judge OF Probate Court
Arizona weekly miner., 1876-09-15

It is related of Judge Fancy, that once while he was District Judge, a young lawyer thought to strengthen his case by swearing to A complaint, one of the princi- pal counts in which involved an intricate point of law. The Judge on hearing the complaint and verification read, arose from his seat on the bench, lowing to the young practitioner and thanked him for having settled point of law, by swearing to it, about which he and all the courts had been in serious doubt for the past twenty-five years.
 Judge French seems to have been placed under similar obligations to Mir. Toole who swears that one of the things which he knows to be true in the complaint and pe- tition for restraining order against the Secretary, is, that Sec. of the Census Act Is wholly imperative and void Had Judge French had drop of the milk of human kindness in his bosom he would certainly have recognized and acknowledged so inn portant a service to the profession.

We have not yet learned how it happens
 that the Pima Census is so largely out of
 proportion to her taxable property, as con-
 pared with the number they are willing to accord to Yavapai. No complaint has yet been made, we believe, of excessive assess ment in this County, and yet there must be something wrong with the figures or else the enumeration of the people as reported by the Marshal is not far out of the way. If this be not so, and we have only between three and four thousandas Mir. Toole swears, then the eOOs people in Pima must be pow erty-stricken indeed, or their Assessor has neglected to take an account of their taxable property as he should have done, and We are paying double what we ought to 10 the Territorial Fund. We suspected when the cry of fraud was raised that somebody was about to be swindled, and as We feared, it is likely to turn out, on investigation, that the accusers are the very fellows that are doing the swindling, and take this method of diverting attention from their nefarious schemes.

come tax in a few days, which will forever dispose of the charges against him. The papers say if he succeeds in reconciling the two oaths made in 1863 and 1876, so broadly contradictory, the explanation on that point will be satisfactory, but his failure to make any returns in 1863 and 1872 will still be to explain.

A Guib0rd Case.

ihof, npih ol'
Recently man whose name we were I'M
able to learn died after protrscted illness
at his residence in Port Schuyler. Al
though he recognized alliance 10 no parti-
cular religious denomination, his wife and
family were Roman Catholics, and attend
ed Rev. Father Cullen's church. All of
the deceased members OF the family are in
TERED in the Catholic cemetery, in a lot
owned by the wife, and she naturally in-
tended to bury her husband there. Her
surprise and anger were great when she
learned that her pastor, Father Cullen,
would not allow the body TO enter the
church nor BIO buried in the cemetery, and
one day she unceremoniously elected the
prizes. from her house. The services OF
Rev. Mr.. Strong of the South Reformed
church of Port Schuyler were secured, and
the body was inferred in Rural cemetery.
A lot in Rural cemetery was purchased for
the occasion, and 1t is the wile's Intention
to remove her deceased relatives from their
present resting place in the Catholic ceme-
terry, and renter them In Rural cemetery.

Locomotive Engineers.
SPECIAL CONVENTION AT BOSTON


An important special convention Of the
locomotive engineers Of the New England
states was held in Boston on Thursday
presided ever by P. NJ. Arthur, grand chief
of the brotherhood of locomotive engineers
of the United States and Canadas, assisted
by L. 3. Greene, F. G. A. E.,
and William b. Thrall, S. G. A.
E. The following railroad. were
represented by delegates from the different
subdivisions Boston and Albany, Bost
ton and Providence, Boston and Lowell,
Boston and Maine, Fitchburg, Old Colony,
Boston, Clinton and Fitchburg, New York
and New England, New York and New
Haven consolidated lines, Housatonc, Con-

and Nashua, Portland and Ogdensburgh,
Maine Central, Grand Trunk, Connecticut
Western, Stonington, Cheshire, Passumpsic,
Central Vermont and leased lnes. The
meeting was called for the purpose of con-
sdering the rate Of pay now received by
the engineers of New England, and was
fully discussed by the convention, after
which the following
RESOLUTIONS WERE UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTED:
WHEREAS We, the locomotive engineers OF
New England, after due consideration, are OF
the opinion that the compensation now recey-
ed by US Is Inadequate and not In keeping
with the rate OF pay In other parts OF the
country.
And, further, that upon many OF the roads
unjust reductions have already been made, and
usages established which are entirely unjust,
considering the remuneration therefor, and In
addition 10 the constant Increase or our care
and responsibility Incident to the continued In
crease OF railroad business and the modern i'm
provementS Tor the safety or the travelling pub
| lie, which are placed under the immc dlate CON
| troll OF the engineer, the railroad companies
evince disposition TO increase our labors IN
many other ways, requiring more hours of ser
vice and denying us many privileges allowed
| heretofore, reducing the pay and increasing
the responsibilities Indirectly, and In many
ways taxing the strength and energies OF men
| TO such an extent that those OF the most iron
constitutions would break down under their
weight In a few years, and be obliged to retire
| Res0irsi That we, the locomotive engineers
OF tue W England states. are unanimously
and ulaiterably opposed to any further redue,
| the railroad onlclals, and VIII use our united
Efforts to prevent the same, and we would re-
take into consideration the subject OF increas-
ing our compensation ut the earliest possible
| moment and,
| Resoiped. That we protest against the con.
st.nt increase OF services, together with It's
risks, cares and responsibilities, which are be-
| Ing imposed upon us, directly and Indirectly
| without increased compensation, and In max
ing this protest ana petition we feel that VIC
| have the sympathy OF the travelling public, and
| know that we have the sympathy and support
OF every locomotive engineer throughout the
| continent.

former and illusionist Capt. Thomas has
given entertainments in Brandon, Pitts

county, where he has been received with
unbounded favor. Some of his perform

CINE company should draw good house.
Persons out of work. and seeking posi-
lions on the centennial police force, are
warned against swindlers who pretend that
they can secure any one situation for a
consideration of S., $40 or $50. Their
plan is to promise tue situation for either
of the sums named, telling the victim not
to pay the money until he Is assuled of his
appointment A few days afterwards,
either the victim receives a communication
or his name Is mentioned in newspaper,
the editor being gulled by bogus informa-
ton, and then the sharper gets the money
and the would-be policeman gets nothing.
The best way is TO be sure of the appoint
ment before any money is paid out. The
centennial police commissioners do not re-
quire persons to purchase positions on the
force.

were overlooked ye-tcrdIy, were proven
aud additional counts of the indictment
read. 6lr. Lewis, Gays counsel, had no
questions to ask. Justice Vaughan Or
deied Grays commtial upon additional
charges, viz d: forging and uttering bonds
of 5000, and utterng two forged bonds
OF $4,000 each. The justice informed
him that he could, if he desired, apply for
writ of habeas corpus. Mr.. Lewis said
Gray felt no uncertainty about the result
when tried in the United States
When the charge was first preferred,
being then very young man, he had taken
foolish course Of not meeting 1t. In
questonably, forgery had been committed,
but Gray merely unwlttingly received the
forged documents and passed them on in
the ordinary way Of business. Col. Cheese

dorsed the protest of Lewis yesterday, that
his client should only be tried for the Of
Tense for which he should be extradlted, on
papers for transmission to the home office,
desired that his silence yesterday be not
construed as concurrence in Lewis's po-
sliion. Justice Vaughan said 1t was his
duty in transmitting the documents to the
home office to make any addendum he saw
flt, and the legation had no concern there
with The prisoner was then removed to
