Col King. $. ,Voolsey has returned home to Phenix from part business and part po- Iitical trip through Pinal County. visiting the principal places, talking to the miners, merchants and business men generally, aud in every locality he met with the mos; Hat ,er;np encouragement. Thccitizens of Piaai, Yuma and Yesapsi, ase satisfied with cen tral man who will go forth on his mission as public servant and do his dnsy toward the whole Territory. In Woolsey they have 4 man who is atrue blue, without those strong prejudiccs which are characteristic ID Campbell and Stevens.
 MT. Woolsey is peculiarly situated, and vera he inclined to throw cold water on any of the corntles surrounding Maricopa, he eouid not do so without injury 10 iiis own town and county, where he is largely in- terested. Salt River is centrally located, Is the great grannary of Arizona. She needs outlets in every direction, aId improvements by making good roads in her sister country is the only way to secure tine remedy 1 While Stevens would stick to Pima, and never cast an eve to the welfare of any other section. we candidly believe, knowing Mr. campi,eIl as we do, our acquaintance ex- | tending over period of II years, that he
 would forcet, entirely the Territory, ana remember John G. Campbell, mileage from
 Prescott to Washington, and the per diem, l while there. Mr. W0olsey has been in the Terfitory since the time of it's first occu | nancy by Americans, is thoroughly identi- fed with it's every intererest and welfare, and when he goes to Washington, as he surely
 will. thea will he prove to his cons;itucats back in the long neglected Arizona, that something can be done for the good of the I whole Territory, even by a delegate. Wool sey has served in every capacity necessary to constitute good and true citizen of our l frontier land. He shouldered his rifle h the time of danger and led his fellow men to victory against the common enemy, John Apache. He returned from long aud W ari- some campaigns where starvation stared him and his bold followers for days in tie face, to take the blow handle and cultivate the
 soil. He opened mines, shoulder to shoul-
 der with other hardy and honest miners, and
 assisted in revealing to the light of day, treasures that reposed in the dark bosom ot earth for untold time. With his fellow teamsters he has followed the road; quartz mills have sprung into existence through
 his energy, grist mills have been erected through his enterprise, 1900 acres of land IS . to-day receiving his attention and care, laws have been made through his wise counsel i ing. Prescott ha; possession, to-day, of the . Capital, through his honest and unprejudlced
 ballot. His every step for l6 years has been onward Arizona, and such will ever be his motto The candid mind cannot for a
 moment hesitate where to throw its vote on the 9th day of November. We would ask
 oulself what J. G. Campbell, the man who forced himself upon the people without
 solicitation, has ever done for the Territory f that the people should dance to his music 2 and send him to the halls of Cungressl It is easily answered, not much for anyone in
 particular, outside of John G., himself.
 The general advancement of the whole
 Territory now depends upon the election oi
 man who is competent, free from the a strong prejudice, whose residence IS central : and one who will work with the members from New Mexico, Colorado, Kansas, Mis- h souri, etc. Show thees people the advantage
 of possessing the trade of Arizona, and il
 will be but little trouble to secure with
 their help, important assistance from Con
 gress in the way of appropriations for the
 many public enterprises much needed all
 over Arizona.
