The complaint herein was heard by Judge c. G. w. French, at Tucson, on the 17tn instant. Af- ter examining the case and hear ing attorneys, the Judge made these orders:
 On filing the foregoing com, plaint, let the defendants show cause before me at my chambers in the court house tn Tucson, Pima country, Arizona Territory, on the 27th day of September A. D. 1876, at 10 o'clock a. m. of said day, why an injunction should not be granted restraining the defendant, J. P. Hoyt, Secretary of Arizona Territory, from mak- ing an apportionment Ofrepresen- tation for members of the House of Representatives and members of the Council of the Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Ari- zOna, upon the census of the inhabitants of said Territory, for the year, A. D., 1876, and for such other or further relief as may be just.
 It is further ordered that said defendant HOyt, his agents, and servants be in the meantime res trained and be hereby forbidden to suffer oI commit any of said acts until the further order of the court.

 THE following which we copy from the California AgricultaNriSt and LiUe Stock JOlnaGi, is appli- cable to all attitudes where news. papers circulate:
 How much better than a thief is a man who takes advantage of confidence 10 defraud another? is he not even meaner than @ thief? The thief asks no confidence, but takes from you, most likely, be- hind your back. You may be ma terialiy injured by the thief, but not morally outraged, as by the confidence man. Now, we wish to mak direct application to such persons as take paper year after year with the intention of not paying for the same, and whO finally discontinue without paying for what they receive. We can afford to say that we think such persons meaner than sneak thIe- yes. We have been delrauded i'll this way by many persons, too. Now, If there are any more such persons on our list, they may make personal application of this, get mad, and stop at Once-take l these remarks as an excuse for stopping their paper without pay ing before it runs any longer. It costs money to runs this journal, and we cannot afford to be impos- ] ed upon. What we complain of is, the deliberate meanness of the confidence class, who are too cOntemptibly mean to pay what they owe on paper that they have for along time re- ceived.

INSANITY THAT OMMODATES
ITSELF TO ClRCCMSrAyCES.

Chicago is a remarkable city. II de-
vclops phenomena that can be seen no.
where else among men. In religion, in
business, In social lite and in crime her
phenomena are most wonderful. A few
months ago one Henry Davis murdered
Charles ID. Whyland. He was tried un-
der an indictment for murder and the
insanity plea was urged with sufficient
effect to save hiE from the gallows.
The jury disagreed, and another Jury had
to be empannelled. In the meantime
DAVIS comes into court, pleads guilty TO
the charge Of manslanghter, and Is sem
fenced to the peniteniiary for
period OF twenty.one years. And right
here comes in the phenomenon. Davis
was entirely too crazy to commit murder

imprisonment in the penitentiary. TO
put tue matter In another shape. while
the punishment for his crime was death,
he was crazy as loon: When the punish.
ment was modified to Imprisonment, the
light OF reason beaned in upon him, and
he was intellectually o. X. The insanity
dodge is played with great success in this
country, bat we doubt very much whetl,-

Chicago, would have entertained the plea

IN ICS MONO HnEWVANCE,

We are not Of those who are disposed
to censure our county commissioners be-
cause Of their refusal 10 allow office rent
to the county superintendent Of public
schools. II Is true that, for several years
the county has been paying bills OF that
nature larger bills than those which are
now disallowed. But the precedent be-
Ing wrong, the board was under no OBJ
legations to follow it. The county, AT =
heavy outlay Of money, has provided
offices for its officials, and the law con-
templates that those offices should be
occupied. Parties having business to
transact with county officers. very nat
urally seek the court house, and do not
expect to be drawn hlther and thither,
wherever the officer, for his own personal
convenience, may choose to locate. The
counfy superintendent could have Office
room with the county treasurer, and
whenever he or she establishes an Office
outside OF the court house, 1t is consid-
GRAFTON for his or her own convenience
that controls, and not the convenience Of
the public.
II may be argued that the office OF
county superintendent is an unimportant
one, and that the incumbent cannot afford
