The Democratic Club
AL JUsriCE

This august body met last evening at the call of fife and drum, W. ". Hu,chison Tn the chair. After nominating Morris Cola. water, Dan Hiz aEd Robt Cunnrl for School Trustees, Col. C. F. Head read a somewhat lengthy address embodying the doctrines of State sovreignity, excusng the Democracy and accusing the Republicans of everything that is bad, and figuring up the expenses of the government for the past twenty years to his own apparent sat isiAciioH. and the evident bewildermcnt of a majority of his hearers, who showed by their blank expressions of cOGntenance and vacant stare, that they were wondering what it was al about
 We should do the Colonel injustice were we 10 pretend that his effort was devoid of mcri; as laborei argument in favor of his view of the political situaton. The address was better than was is recognition by an unappreciat've audience. From a coufed- crate stand point his explanation of the similarity of interests and objects between 'iiS i''t'i''h 'A " dNltlAlS tt'H ana lutl Oi ,uc Confederate Chiefs would be considered an argument worthy of theIr best talent, but a. campaign speech in the United States II Is in strange contrast with the professions of the political followers of Genl. Hancock. Genl. Sherman was taken to task for saving lu hls Prescott speech that rebellion must be made odIous." The Colonel seemed 10 forget that h.s idol, Genl. Hancock, was a few years ago engaged in trying 10 make rebellion odIous, and the only evidence of his repentance is his connection with the Democratic party. He forgot, also. that Genl. sherman Is a Democrat, and but for the probable candidacy of his brother, would most likely have been the Demo cratic nominee, instead of Hancock.
 The Colonel k generally earnest in his advocacy of Democracy. is deeply and bit terly prcjudiced against everything that originates outside of the late Confederate lines, eNcep: CopperheadiSm, and We have no; a doubt would have been gratifiei 10 see the Stars and Stripes go down and the stars and Bars wave over diSiointed Con federacy; but when he expressed a l.'ief that Hancock would be next President 7ye thought he wrenched his conscience, and his audience denied it by their silence.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM
Corruption in omce hsrs at Home

Ever since the iRaugurstioR of President
 Hayes, It has been his policy. AS we'll as
 that of his party, to reform the Civil Ser vice. Especial care has been taken in the preparation of Executive orders to prevent officials from using the means acquired by office to perpetuate themselves in office Now, in the face of this oft repeated order, we find Deputy Clerk of the Dis trict Court travelling over the county ped ding naturalization papers 10 his party
 friends iH portions of the county remote from the County Seat, thus thwarting the order of the President and the offorts Of Republicans to secure fair Election.
 These naturalization papers recite an impossibility, in tiiIs, that they are sealed and dated at Prescott ou the same day that t5e newly made citizens are registered ID precincts too far away 10 1e reached in q day. IL Is true that the Clerk, NIT. Wilker son, denies all knowledge of the transae- tiOns, and, no doubt is innocent of the fraud, so far as personal participation Is concerned, and it is also true that the particular Deputy, Lloyd, detected in these practices at Tiptop, has resigned, and asks the Judge not to hold Wilkerson respon- sible, as he is alone to blame, yet the citi- zens of iavapsi County, who are as much interested as the Court, want men in office IS principals, who have discretion enough to select deputies who are above such corrupt practices. Republicans are and willing that Democrats shall hold all the soft places within the cif' of the appOintees of the President, but they do insist that they shall not use the means acquired by such appointment to foster corruption and retaining themselves in office, thus nuiliiving ths Presidents civil service order.
 The following precinct has been heard from, where Mir. Lloyd got in his work:
 On A. J. McPhee's list appear the fol lowing entries:

The Case of Daniel Cannon.
TIPTOP. Oct. 2nd. 1880.

TIPTOP, Oct. 2nd. 1880. ED. MI3ER = The Phenix Expos; tor pub lished. on the 17th ult, an article in regarC now serving a sentence in the Terntoria Prison, which, from its many misstatements, IS calculated to deceive the people and en- list sympathy where none is deserved; and, in the name of justIce, condOne and excuse one of the blackest crimes which have dis graced the history of the Territory.
 In the month of May, 1875, at Crook s Canyon, in this county, Daniel Cannon murdered J. C. Clancy, (not one Dougherty or ODougherty), as stated in the EXpositor. There was no "lady' in the case whatever. The Tow. directly preceding the killing, was in a saloon. about the sum of one dollar ID game of "ireeze out" The parties separated. Cannon going not to get his eff fleets for the purpose Of leaving the camp as stated, but to Dawes store, where, going behind the counter, he took Dawes pistol, and started for the salooa, Clancy remaining @, the saloon. In the meantime some one Of the miners had given Clancy pistol, telling him that Cannon lad gone for six shooter and would shoot him, and to de- fend himself. Clancy was, at this time, In an almost helpless state of intoXicatioD, s.aGding n front of the saloon. Cannon the first shot missing him, bur the second dong its fatal work. When Clancy fell the six-shooter on him dropped to the ground. He never fired a shot, nor even drew the pistol. Cannon was arrested, and barely escaped lynch!ng at the hands of the iniurated miners, not only CIancy's friends. but men who had been his own friends. All that saved him was the seeming certainty of capital punishment by law. Instead of being the friend!ess, penniless man as claimed n the Expostor, John A. Rush was secured for his defense by I retainer of s2j0 cash and the transfer of considerable mining property. Never did an attorney labor more zealously for client than did Judge Rush for Daniel Cannon. The yer l dIct of the jury, 10 tie surpr'se of everybody | who knowing tie circumstances, was for l murder in the second, instead of the first | degree. Judge Tweed, in sentencing the | prisoner for 3i years. told him that he had | escaped the gaIioHs through having a good ! attorney and 8 foolish jury. When Cannon . reached the prison he told Sherff Bowers l that "he woIli kill some more sons Of b-s who were down on him, Tue yer diet of the people at the time was that Gan mons punishment was too light, and DO have come to light slnce 10 cause them to change that verdict. No Dne not led by fa.sehoods, will ever sign petition for Executive clemency in the case 1f Daniel Cannon.
 The facts as above are given me by two ,ye-witnesses 10 the killing, who are men we'll known and of good standing in this and vouch for the circumstances Is related, and ask you 10 publish this ln 'rder that a man guilty of murder, for which serving lis fuil scntrncC will not De adequate punishment, may not, by de- eiying thc public through the press, be uFned loose upon the community to repeat he crime, ns he has threatened 10 do.
