 extol the name of fraternity of man. kind but talk more fraternally than they act, votaries of nationalism en- courage violence and sedition among the people, provoke agrarian dis turbances, fiattery Is applied to lower classes, and by those means and others serve to weaken the foundations of domestic life and public order instead of strengthening them by lives of proberty and manhood. The letter goes on to recommed that Franciscan institutions be more widely spread among laity as partial remedy against the rapidly spreading evil of socialism.

 There IS no doubt but that with
 the testimony Of the Judge and corrob- orating circumstances NIT. Cameron's
 skirts will be entirely cleared, and the Department will be relieved of the sus- plcIon oi having attempted to secure conviction in tAese cases by resort To dIsreputable practices. We certainly 1 hope that such may be the case, for no justification could be found for the prosecution. We regret that the Judge | has been called away at this time. He has done excellent service for Pima county and secured universal commen- datlon from the bar and the people by the manner in which he has discharged the duties of his office. Being resident of the coast he IS familiar with the practice in vogue and is ac- luamted with the class Of cases pecu- 'ar to mining country. A large and

CHICAGO, Nov. 1st, 1882.
 EDITORS CITIZEN: Referring to au article which appeared in the editorial columns oi your paper of October 12th, loS2, concerning to the disposition made of the body of the late II. B. Jenks, who died in Tucson last March. l desire to say in behalf of his family that several grave errors appear: First. the wife dId not direct the body to bs emba.med, but directed the body {, be buried, second, Mrs. Jenks has no- recel'ed and will not receive seventeen thousand dollars insurance on ths hte of her husband; on the coutrary but one policy of life insurance two thousand dollars ln amOuntl had been Aept up by MT. JeEks, all others had lapsed Tor nOn-payment of premi ums; thlrd, lt IS stated in the article in IerentaiIy that Mrs. Jenks had refused 70 pay Tor the trouble of embalmiug. The facts are that a demand Of twelV, hundred dollars was made by telegram. Tor embalmlng and perhaps coffin. although no explanations were made. simply demand for twelve hundred dollars; thls sum seemed out of all jus. proportion to the services rendered, and 1 when 1t Is known that in Chicago embalmlDg costs only from ten 10 twenty-five dollars the charge made l seems the most exOrbitant. In this ] connection 1t shuuld be stated that a | son of NIT. Jenks living in Chicago after | getting prices for embalming in | Chicago and being assured that 1t ought not to cost in Tucson more than one hundred dollars, telegraphed to have the body embalmed, but learning that hIs mother who was in the State of New York had directed the body to be buried, at once telegraphed revok- ing the order to embalm and directed the body to be buried. It should be stated further that Mrs. Jeuks has but scanty means of support for herself and two children one of whom is a hopeless invalid. The family of Mir. Jenks are wiling to pay any just sum for any act lf kindness shown NIT. Jenks in his life ilne or for any service rendered to hem after his death, but they feel the demand of twelve hundred dollars Is lot just and in this they are sustained y men who are engaged in the same york said to have been performed by he physician at Tucson. Now gentle nen, believing that you have no desire to To unjust thing in the premises, I ask on tO publish this letter in your ( olumns and thereby correct any wrong impressions in the minds of your eaders.
