Ta tae Voters of tse Territory cf driEona:
 Having been urged by numerous friends to become a candidate for Delegate to Con- cress, left my name with friends residing in Prescott and Mineral Park, that they might use the same as they saw tit, either withhold or hand to the MINER and Enter prise. At last my name appeared as a can- didate.
 If elected by the real voters of the Ter ritory. would consider it one of the great est honors that could be conferred upon q citizen of the Territory, but to be elected through fraud or bribery, would consider it disgrace. shall not pay out or expend money in a needless way, nor employ friends to do so for me- As reform is the order of the day, I will fall in with the popular party and urge reform. If elected l will dispose of my private business so as to leave Arizona and reside in Washington for two years, and there act ss agent or servant of the people of the whole Territory. II I did not accomplish anything that would benefit my constituency, it would not DC because did not try. WM. H. HARDf.

Governor A. F. k. Safiord and J. S Yes burg, Esq. are in town ca yOsse to Mohave County, where the law makes it the duty of the Governor to go once a year and visit the schools. That duty was performed in this County in May, and he is now hurryirg on in order to reach Tucson in time to issue his Election proclamation, provided the Secre- tary makes the apportionment. Some of our people have had the erroneous opinion that he had some duty to perform in connec- hon with the apportionment, which is a mis- fake. His duties are plain, well defined, and there need be no fear that he will shrink from their performance. If every officer aid bis duty as faithfully as Governor Saf- lord does his, we should now have our rights, and candidates would be in the field o represent us in the Territorial Legislature.
 MT. Voshburg has just returned from the centennial and an extended tour through the East, and having his hand in as trav- eier, only remained at home three days when he concluded to accompany the Gov .enor to Mohave County before settling down to business.
