 It now appears that Msricnpa county is only entitled to half 8 member in the Council, Gila and this county to elect one to serve for both. We think, if it be not con- sIdered sacrilegious, that Yavapai county, in its census steal. is equal 10 the temple nt Jerusalem when the Saviour drove out the money changers and gamblers and called il a 'den of thieves"
 It is downright mean in the Star, Gfier making a bargain and sale of the capital to Prescott, to turn around and try to sell it Phoenix. However, enc of the results of the Yavapai fraud will be the moving of the Territorial capital probably 10 Phoenix, if for TO other reaso n than to get it out Of q community which stops at:nothing to accomplish its ends. It is useless to expect pure legislation or pure administration of the government when such loose Ideas of morality prevail at the eat of goYernment.-Cltizen.
