AZ We are always most happy to
publish reports of all meetings of or
CARNATIONS which may be of interest to
the public, and always appreciate the
courtesy which leads to the appoint
ment Of persons to report the doings of
the meetings for the papers. We re-
greet, however, that in the case of the
Good remplars, the selection Of re-
porter has in two or three instances
fallen upon persons who have neglected
The duties they have accepted, and put
on the furnishing of their report until
1t had become too old TO be of interest.

First Contest for the O'Leary Belt.

The O'Leary walk ended Saturday
night, when the garden was packed
with spectators and great enthusiasm
prevailed. Murphy went TO his room
at S.37 O'Clock, having made 500 miles
and lap. At S.45 O'Clock he reap
peared, wearing the O'Leary belt and
rolling before him wheelbarrow filed
with bricks. The applause was deafen-
ing. The vast audience shouted them
selves hoarse. Men and women arose
from their seats and yelled furiously.
Mahoney walked behind the wheel
barrow boy, waving an American flag
over his head. After making two laps
with the wheelbarrow laden with bricks
and flowers, the diamond belt dragging
around his waist, the boy retired at s.5l
O'Clock with a record of 5O5 l-8 miles
in 139 hours and 81 minutes. He was
taken ont quietly by a side door and
went to hotel, and was soon put TO
bed. The official and final score stood /;

BOLD ROBBERY About month ago
DIR. Norman g. MacLean, London
physician, and his wife, landed in New
York city and took rooms in a house on
East Twentieth street. On Friday
evening they left their apartments for a
short time, and on their return found
that Sl8 900 worth of jewelry and bank
notes had been stolen from one of their
trunks in their absence. Strange to
say, the thieves failed to take about
$50, 900 in notes which were in the
plundered trunk, and which they must
have seen. On the voyage over DIR.
MacLean made the acquaintance of a
gentlemanly-looking passenger, whom
he took so far into his confidence as TO
show him some of the diamonds that
were stolen. SUSPICION points to this
person as the thief This piece of i'm
prudence on the part of the owner was
matched only by the failure on his part
to fasten the door of his apartment
when he and his wife went out on Fri
day evening. Such counting of The
fate they have experienced is not often
recorded. 1t is an indisputable fact
that large proportion of thefis and
robberies are invited by the idioCy and
foolhardiness of the victims. DIR. Mac
Lean has probably learned something
he should have had by heart without
the lesson to teach 1t to him.

The Register did not speak of Lucius

A GOOD ACT.

By oar special dispatch from Pres colt, it will be noticed that Acting Governor Go5pSr offers five hundred dollars 10 be paid from the Territor- ial Treasury to any individual who will tii.l any highwayman caught in inc act of robbing any stage, while three hundred dollars will be paid
 for his arrest and conviction should he succeed in escaping in his refarious enterprise. The short stretch of road between this city and Maricopa has now an uneRviable reputation in respect to stage robbers This crime having been committed forr times within as many months and singular as it may appear the perpretrator or perpretrators have in each case been successful in eluding all efforts made to their capture. That they are prepared to add murder 10 their other crimes is evidenced by the desperate attack made on messen- ger Blankensliip about month ago This clearly outlines the character of the class we have to deal with an the action of the administration fully proves that they understand the situ- ation and are determined to adopt such measures as will put an end to such enterprise in the future. Ari- zona, although, one of the border con stituencies of the Union has by the ad vent of the Railway lost her isolated position entirely, being now but few days travel from any of the com. mercial marts of the country, and the incoming immigration is crowding border ru1anism into the shade. These facts should be enough to i'm press upon our citizens that if we desire to appear as a civilized con- munity before our sister states and to invite both capital and labor to develop our vast natural resources, stage robberies must be made thing of the past and strangers must be made to feel that they are as secure when travelling in the Territory as when they are at their own homes. Our bullion shipments have now as- sumed such proportions and in fact, even our commercial remit tanses are now of such an important character, that dilly dalIying cannot be tolerated. We are not in favor of any resort to lynch law but we say plainly and distinctly that the time has passed when the stage coaches of Arizona may be robbed with impunity. Of the many good acts done by Acting Governor Gosper during his temporary Administration, this one certainly is the best, and too much credit cannot be given him for the prompt and energetic manner in which he is endeavoriug to rid Arizona of brigandage.

Proclamation

WHEREAS, The forcible stopping of stages upon the public highway, for the purpose of rifling the mails and robbing the express and paSsen- gers, by a certain class of lawless williams is becoming alarmingly ire quent.
 Therefore, I, John J. Gosper, Act, |, ing Governor of the Territory of Ari- zona, do hereby autho rize the pay ment out of the Territorial Treasury the sum of five hundred (s5OO) dol lars, to any individual who shall kill by means of firearms or otherwise, the highway robber while in the act of or attempt of robbing the mail or express or search of tho passengers, and the sum of three hundred (S30O dollars shall be paid for the capture and conviction of any one connected with the robbing of stage, express or passengers, as above mentioned.
 This offer is to take effect from this date and to continue of full force and effect until by proper authority the same may be rescinded.
 In witness whereof. 1 have hereun to set my hand, and caused to be affix- ed the great seal of the Territory of Arizona Done at Prescott, this 18th day of August, 1879.
