There is something pathetic in Garveys state

plastering, possibly twenty-five per cent done

more pathetic in the spectacle OF Garvey wan

Newspaper Fraud.

Under the title of " Amende Honor able" the Prescott Enterprise says:
 We believe we owe the public and a number of residents of this Territory, an apology for the contents of certain letters which have appeared in the Enterprise. The author of those let Iters came to this Territory with the self assumed reputation of being a
 |" newspaper man. and found employ ment Tn one of our journals After leaving, for some cause, with which we have nothing to do, ,he managed, by his cheek ana hOneyed tongue, to in-
 gratiate himself Tn favor of our sane tum, and induced us 10 believe that a
 batch of letters he had ready, had
 been refused publication in the col umns of contemporary through pure ly personal motives We published the letters. Since then we have re- .ceIved private letters from persons whose statements We can rely upon, to the effect that these letters were mere inventions and cOwardly islanders upon the persons named thereIn. We immediately ceased theIr publication, and the writer has avoided Us the irOu- ble of giving hIm any explanations, by leaving this community. His name Is .C. NJ. Daly. Pass him around.
 When TIE CITIZEN discovered that said Daly was an unmittigated liar and said SO, he was still patted on the back by his employers This is not the first tune the Enterprise has published let ters that were mere inventions and |" cowlrdly islanders upon the persons named therein" but in this respect it has not eqdaled its near neighbor. Daly undoubtedly deserves the expos ure he has got and will get; but the chances are that he was a comparative ly harmless creature before taken up at Prescott and sent abroad to do just what he did-Write letters that were mere inventions and cowardly slan- "ders upon the persons therein nam ed" He was so powerful when here that the Inspector General of the De partment could not but temporarily deprive him of the army horse, saddle and bridle he was using to carry him about for the purpose of writing let ters which "were mere inventions and "cowardly islanders upon the persons named therein" The Enterprise ap- pears to want to make the amende honorable" aud if it be sincere, it will go a little further and mention the names of the persons named and slan- dered in Daly's letters. for the pub fisher of islanders, a. a rule, Is much more censurable than an irresp ponsible writer.

Los Angeles and Arizona.

Following are extracts from a lead
 ing editorial in the Los Angeles Re publican of July T.
 No country ever possessed greater stores ol mineral wealth than Arizona has hId in the recesscs of her mountains buJ it must be uncovered and made available, by capital, energy and en- terprise from abroad.
 Arizona is no longer a sealed book
 The iron bands that link her to civili- Zaiion have established a bond that cannot be severed, and each rail that
 is laid, each tie that is put m Its place, Is hastcning the time when she will pour her wealth inlo the lap of that community which has the capacity to see, and the enterprise to seize the ad- vantage she offers to capital l. will not do for California, and particularly Southern California, to rest easy under the belief that our location is such tba,, with the hallway We al ready have, no rival can enter the field to contest with Us the possession of
 the mineral wealth of Arizona. We should remember that from the north east St. Louis is stretching out her
 hands by the Denver & Rio Grande
 Railway, while to the eastward, the system of roads through Texas will soon be extended so as to bring the cities of the south into the competition
 We have stated that no country ever possessed greater mineral resources than
 Arizona, and the record will bear us out in our assertion. So great has been the expense attending the working and transportation of silver Cres in that region, that nothing that would work
 less than $200 per ton was deemed
 worthy of attention
 As before remarked, outside capital must open and work these mines. San Francisco owes much of her wealth and pros erity 10 the interest she took and the capital she invested in the mines of Nevada
 We repeat, that this Is q question in which Los Angeles is particularly in terested. As the future metropolis of the Southwest, it concerns us nearly whether the wealth of Arizona shall be bestowed upon Us, or go to enrich our rival cities or the Easi, which are now stretching their hands to grasp the prize.

Another Suit Against B. ". Reagan
 of the Silver King.

As a matter of local news, we give
 the following from the San Francisco
 Post, and will say by way of preface
 that, right or wrong, every man who
 finds a rich mine, however many years
 of toll the discovery may have cost him, must expect 10 be harassed by law
 suits. It is not impossible that suits
 against owners of rich mines may sometimes possess true merit, but they
 are generally cooked up by men pro fessing to be lawyers. Here is the ar | ticle from The Post:
 Early Hubbard has sued in the Eff teenth District Court for a dissolution of the partnership subsisting between hIm and B. w. Reagan, the co-defen- dants being the Silver King Mining Comipany and James NJ. Barney. The complaint sets forth that Hubbard and Reagan were the sole owners of a half interest Tn the silver King mine, in Pinal county, Arizona, one of the rich est mines in the whole Territory. Last spring the two came to this cIly to or ganize company, which was done, Ex-Governor Woods, of Oregon and Utah, being made President, and J. M. , Barney, B. W. Reagan. c. L. Woods, E. J. Barney and w. II. Booth, Trus- tees Hubbard was an uneducated man and little acquainted with commercial transactions, and he alleges that Rea- gan induced him by deceiving repre- sentaliOnS to consent tO allowing a board of arbitration to settle certain dis putes which had arisen between hIm and Reagan. This board, all friends of Reagan, and wIned and dined by him, came to the conclusion that Hubbard's s title to the quarter interest of S1, ,000- GOO mine was worth only $J 900, and
 Hubbard, believing the thing 10 be on the square, accepted Reagan's notes for the amount. His eyes since opened, he brings the suit for dissolution of the partnership; an equal division of their
 mining interests; to vacate and set aside the arbitration and award men toned; to annul the deeds which he
 was induced to sign misunderstanding ", as alleged; tO enioin Reagan during the pendency of the action from dis posing of or disturbing in any way the partnership property; to enjoin the Silver King Mining Company from is suing any stock to Reagan, and to en- join Barney from paying out any funds presumed to have been placed Tn his hands by Reagan. Meantime a re straining order has been issued by the court. The case is set for argument on the motion for permanent injunction on the 18th instant. A strong point claimed for the plaintiff is that neither under the laws Of this State nor of Arizona can questions as 10 lhe dispO- stion of real property be determined by arbitration In that way.

The Two Mormon Bodies.

In a note to the Chicago Inter Ocean Joseph Smith writes from Plano, Ken dall county, H., as follows: David Whitmer, one of the witnesses to the certificate prefiXed to the Book of Nor mon, referred to by you, is still living, and resides al Richmond, Mo. Neiih- Ter he nor Oliver Cowdery, nor Martin Harris ever denied the statements made by them in that certificate. Both of the latter died in the faith of the div inity of the book, and the former has repeatedly of late restated his unshak- en confidence in it's truth. The diff ference between the Salt Lake Nor. mons and the believers in the mission of Joseph Smith, the prophet, now re- siding in and about Plano. IL. IS about as follows: Those at Salt Lake believe and practice polygamy; those at Plane neither teach nor practice It. but de nounce il as evil. Those believe that Salt Lake is the Zion, the gathering place of the elect; these do not. Those believe in blood atonement." These do not. Those believe, if reported cor rectly, that Adam is the God to whom they will account; or as expressed by theIr leading man, the only God with whom they have to do;' these no not. but believe in God the Father. Christ and Son; and il Adam only as a man.
 Those believe in and follow Brigham Young as a leader; these do not. There are some minor points of difference which grow out of, and are supplement tIry Co those named above"
