DELEGATE OURY has introduced a oil
 Into the lower house of Congress. It i:
 a bill to disapprove and declare void one
 of the acts of the late Territorial legis.
 lature Of Arizona. This bill reads as
 follows:
 Whereas, The Territorial legislsture
 Of Arizona by act number one of eight
 cen hundred and eighty-three. approved January 16th, 1885, did desach from the thlrd !udiclal district the comfy of
 Cochlse, which is contagious to the other
 counties of said third judicial district.
 ana dld attach the same to the SC eeond !udiclal district to no portion Of which IS sad county of Cochise contiguous; and
 Whereas, sa.oll a division of territory into Judicial disr ss now prevail in Arizona by the provisions of said act numbered one IS contrary to usage and sound public policy; Therefore,
 Be 1t enacted. etc, That act numbered one ot the act of 1883 of the Territory of Arizona is hereby disapprovcd and declared null and void;
 Provided, That no judicial acts, pro ceedings, or determinations heretofore ordered had entered or made in the said county of Cochise shall be affected by the passage of this act"
 By the passage of this bill it would put Cochise county back in its old place n the first district, and the judge who presided over the court in this county would preside in Cochise, and Judge Pinney would be relieved from presiding over the courts of Cochise county. The relief no doubt would be personally quite agreeable to Judge Pinney, but we are of the opinl that the litigants of that county will regret the necessity, # any exist, Of this change. Just why the change is trying to be effected at this time can be better imagined than plainly stated. We presume that those parties who are pulling the wires have abandon 1 ei the idea of fourth judge. | That this charge will prove wholly or | even in part satisfactory We do not | believe. With the new camp of Quijo- | toa which has lately sprung up, and | from which many suits must necessarily | come, the judge at this place will have | all he can do, added to the duties to be performed in Graham and Pinal. Ia -act we feel sure that Tombstone added . to this court will make the work more -han any one judge can perform in ustice t7 himself and those interested.
 Of course our readers will see that slr- Oury has made @ slight mistake as .o the number of districts. Cochlse IS LOW Tn the second district and was be- ore detache1 in the first district. The ,Im, barring the mistakes. k to get that 'ounty back in the first judicial dis tict.
