MT. stevens Election Assured.


 Marlcopa county is sure for fine majority for Mir Stevens. Reports to this effect come from various parts of the county by letter and otherwise. One of the best posted and most relia- ble men in that county writes us on the 4th instant as follows:
 Politics quiet. Woolsey a "goner;" ;" will not get majority at any precinct in MaricOpa county. Stevens will get as many votes in this county as Wool sey and Campbell both. Joe PhY ahead f. Sheriff.
 MT. Stevens will get 300, and likely GOO, votes in Yavapei county. He will get fair share in Mohave and Yuma, and nice majority in Pinal and large majority over all in Pima. So the election of Mir. Stevens is sure. But none of his friends should relax their efforts in his behalf, for the greater the majority the greater the victory.

A Legislature Co Meet Next
 Jsnuary.

A private dispatch dated Prescott October ', says:
 Fremont qualified on Saturday anC issued election proclamation on las basis.
 Lawfully or unlawfully, Legislature will meet in Arizona next January with the same representation as ir 1877. which was as follows:
 Yavapai, four members of the coun cil and eight members of the house Mohave, no member of the Council and one ofthe House; Yuma, one mem Der of the Council and one of the House; Maricopa county, one member of the Council and two of the House Pinal coun'y, one member of the Coun cil and one of the House; Pima coun ty, two members of the Council and five members of the House.
 It is needless to say this is most unequal and unfair representation, and whatever may have been the legal status of the last legislature, there is even greater room for questioning the legality of the one that will meet next January. More than two months ago this paper pointed out that the authori- ty to convene a legislature was doubt ful, especially on the basis and under the law authorizing the one of 1877. There is some reason to believe that a legislature might be legally elected and held on the basis and under the same authority as the one of 1875, the legislature having made the appor- tionment for that one as required by the acts of Congress.
 But legislature will meet and doubtless pass bills that the people may regard as laws. The character of the bills will evidently be what will in duce an observance of them or an op- position 10 them. Very likely feast will be cooked mp for tbe lawyers.
 There is no tune 10 be lost in plac- ing legislature ticket before the vot CTS of Pima county. We hear of bui three volunteer candidates. Men of much business and capacity feel that they can hardly afford to attend the legislature, even if they had confidence in it's legality and fairness of the re- presentation, and yet very important interests may be jeopardized by their failure to submit to an election and the inconvenience and expen>e of serving. IL Is very certain that no man worthy 10 represent this county, will spend either time or money 10 make a can- vsss for the position.

T. now seems to be an established fact that Swilling, Monro and Kirby were entirely innocent of any parlici ipstion in or criminal knowledge of tho stage robbery for which they were ar rested and imprisoned On seeing 6 Tucson dispatch in a Prescott paper g couple of weeks ago, our suspicious were aroused that great outrage had been committed on these men. and commented upon the subject on general terms, but in such way as to indicate a possibility that Detective and Deputy Marshal Evans was in some measure responsible. He soon after called on us and disclaimed all responsibility and we gave him the benefit of the dis claimer. He further said the resp0n sibility rested with the Yavapal sher iff's office, and we gave that statement publicity.
 We are now informed that there is a probability that the perpetrators of this outrage on innocent men will be ex posed by legal investigation, but there is, we fear, no hope that they will be adequately punished. The law has been made an instrument to cruelty wrong three men, innocent of the crime charged, one of whom died under the punishment in prison, but it fails to provide for just redress to any of them or due punishment of the responsible parties. It is even strongly hinted that the arrest of these men was instigated to shield those really guilty of the crime, and if these strong hints are we'll founded, those responsible for the arrests are infinitely worse men than professional stage robbers and high waymen
 Not long since, the officers of Pima county were asked why they did not arrest somebody's To the reply that there should be reasonable evidence of guilt before arrest, it was further urged that such matters ought to be pushed and arrests made anyhow!
 It has long since been well under stood that city detectives often arrest innocent persons and then manufac- ture testimony against them. Is this practice to be extended throughout the country?
 There are plenty of actual criminals at large-enough to keep all officers, detectives and reward hunters on the watch and in honest employment. In pursuit of criminals, all good citizens will gladly aid officers, detectives and reward hunters; but they cannot help condemning in the strongest terms, ar. rests of men innocent of the crimes charged against them.

GENERAL WILCOX has been in. structed by the Secretary of War to use the troops to protect the United States mails, and has already taken steps to effect that end. 4 more recent telegram says the Adjutant-General of the army will in few days issue an order further explaining the posse comitatus clause in the Army bill. IL will state that officers can detail troops under their command, to protect Unit. ed States property whenever it is ID jeopardy, or there is any danger of its destruction. Another case in which troops can be used that will be cited will be for the purpose of putting down an expedition formed in the United States for the purpose of vlsil- ing, with hostile intent, any foreign country

THREE supervisors are to be elected November 5, 1878, to serve Pima coun ty for the years 1879 aad 1880. As yet there has been no public meeting ol convention to name men for these re sponsible offices. It is well understood this action has been so far delayed or thwarted because of an unworthy pur pose on the part of a very few to try and elect at least one supervisor who will agree tin advance) 10 resign SC that man who practically admits that he cannot be elected by the people, may be appointed. Are the honest, earnest and tax paying people of Pima county going to permit the consumma- tion of job of this kindP Do they want a one man board? Do they not want a board of three members having capacity, independence and useful oc- equations? It is believed that they will say they do at the coming election.
