~ away from the Capital, and these laws
nrinted at Prescott BY a Yavapai printer
these we considered land still do) sum-
Gent reason for BELIEVING the laws to nave
been doctored. But we did not say or
believe, nor can such a construction be
legitimately placed upon anything we did
say, that Secretary Gosper maliciously
tempered with or changed them"
We called the book sent to the Recorder
of Yuma County, "Gosper's law for 1872.
What else was It? certainly not the laws
of the Tenth Legislature.
Secretary Gosper by certifying them to
be the laws as passed fathered all respon-
sIbility for what was done or left undone
by any one in Yavapsi County interested
In the suppression of the amendment allud-
ed to, poor proof readers, printers ana all,
and only in that sense have We or will we
consider him personally interested in the
matter.
As matter of convenience and to save
labor, proposed bills, printed for the use
OF members and expressly for them to
amend or repeal, were given as copy to
the public printer. This was wrong, and
of course prolific source of error. The
laws as passed and signed by the Cover
nor should have been the copy used by
the printer.
Mr.. Gosper tells US that the Superin-
:endent Of Public Instruction very soon
after the passage of the School Law,
caused 1t to be printed in pamphlet and
passed them Immediately into the hands OF
all the school officers in the Territory
On the 2Sd and in reply to our article Of
the 10Th we received several OF these
pamphlets On the 2Sth of August, more
|
Law our School Trustees had not re.
ceived copy and to one of them We fur,
nished copy. But Whit official charac'
ter have these pamphlets?
We are glad to learn that the Schoo
Board made an apportionment of the
Fund for the quarter ending June 80
but are curious to know the result anG
also how many children there are in
Yuma County between the ages of si1
' and twenty one.
We were not aware OF these last facts
nor do we consider our criticism unfair
nor that We were negligent in not learn
ing the truth nor had We right to sup
pose the Board or the Superintendent
would be guided by what they conceived
to be the law instead of that officially pro
mulgated as such.
AS we have never had any intention o
inducement constructively or otherwise
to accuse our Secretary OF crime, slngl
or double, his concluding affirmation i
superfluous, and We have not intimate'
nor do we believe that he in any degree
or m amer tampered with the laws: W
4 do think it was negligent and careless TO
him to affix his official certificate until b
personal inspection AMI comparison b
~ had verified the truth of the statement
in his certificate, and it is of no impol
lance to us or the public who was person
ally to blame, whether Secretary serb
or proof reader.
We have gained our object in alludin
to this matter and we ale satisfied: Tn
incorrect Laws promulgated are to b
corrected

A Tempest In a Teapsr.


Under this caption the Miner of
the ed gives half a column of
scoring to, the SENTINEL, bat so
mild and wishy-washy that, in
vectives. and insolence aside, the
article confirms our statements
in regard to- the issuing to the
people mass of rubbish certified
under the seal of the Territory as
being the Laws; as passed by the
last Legislature when'it is moth
ing of the kind.
We did not jump. to the concIu-
sion that the mistake was perpe.
trated Intentionally lin that case
1t would have been worse than a
mistake,} but we did attribute ii
to gross carelessness. Had these
laws been given us in March or
April, mistakes, If rectified, could
be excused, but when six months
elapse there is no excuse for err
rors that could have been cor
rected by ordinary revision and
comparison.
We received on the 23d inst.
several copies of what the Miner
calls corrected copies of the
Law" from the Superintendent
Of Public Instruction. Does it
not strike the Miner as being a
queer state Of affairs when a Su-
perintendent of Public Instruc-
ton is obliged to correct the Law
as issued under certificate of a
Secretary of a Territory?
However, the question is not as
to whether fraud was intended,
whether there was collision be.
tween Gosper and Beach or the
Yavapai members of the Legis.
lature, or whether the "clerical
mistake" was excusable or not,
OF all this we make no complaint,
were we to do 80 it would be else.
where than in the columns OF
the press /; the question is, that
the so-called Acts of the Tenth
Legislature are incorrect, and
that the various officers of the
law 10 whom they have been sent
,shoadd be restrained from acting
under them, and correct copies
be furnished them at once fol-
their guidance.
AS to the SENTINEL having
fallen into bad hands, our brair
being affected, the editor being
away, etc., ETC., it sounds queer
when Fremont was away sellin,
mines, Gosper looking after hi
cattle, and Beach on a paseo ii
California when Beach got bacl
he probably gave Butler AM
Weber rap over the knuckles
If he did not he ought to hav
done So; we have no quarrel wit
the Miner and shall not "tall
back" but we do want to hav
ali the laws published correctl.
and not have to pay another thou
sand dollars to have them com
piled again especially as 1t wa
30 poorly done the last time.

THE DRAMA.

THE DRAMA.
A fair, though not a large audience
attended the performance of the
Mighty Dollar at Leubrie's Theatre
last night. The Florences appeared
and acted with their usual spirit and
good effect, their roles being full of
humor and satirical hits at the foibles
and follies Of life at the national cap
ital. The play affords an insight into
the way rings and lobbyists manage
affairs and shift the political
scenery Of the nation, and a moral may
be drawn from the lessons it teaches.
The supporting members of the Flor
ence troupe appear to gain upon their
auditors as they become better known.
The Mighty Dollar will be repeated
tonight.
COLES GREAT SHOW.
A very large throng attended the
first representation of Coles great
show on the.bluf last night, at least
so say a number who were there, and
the entertainment is reported to be in
every way meritoriOus. Their small
bills, programmes and cards in the
newspapers give the details Of their
performance in much better style
than could a reviewer who was not
there to review. The exhibition will
be repeated this afternoon and to-
night. Tomorrow night the great
show will be at Brownsville.
BowERs-THOMPsON.
On Monday evening Of next week
the new play Of Lady Jane Grey
will be given at the theatre in this
city by Mrs. d. p. Bowers and Char
lotto Thompson. Mr.. h. +. Thorne,
Mr.. j. @. McCullom and other fine
actors are in the troupe, and several
new pieces are to be given during
their weeks stay.

Fanaticism in its most horrible form re-
Gently broke out: in a district in Massa-
chusetts where; the Puritan stock has been
kept about as free from admiXture with
foreign elements as in any other part of the
State. Yet there is hardly another section
where there is SO large number Of divorces
in proportion to population as there. The
Supreme Court was recently in session at
Barns,able, and, with the. exception OF two
cases that were soon disposed Of, the entire
time was taken up in hearing divorce
suits. Thirty applications for divorce were
presented. Most Of the parties were young
persons-many girls in their teens. One
side was to ue'for divorce upon the charge
Of desertion, and the other was not to de-
fend the case, and so were separated. Peo-
ple, after few weeks or months, were tired
of living together and ended their married
lives. Bad atmosphere for moral obligations
in that puritanical locality.
