ON THE SUBJECT OF IN

Through the courtesy of acting-Gover- nor Van ssArman we are permitted to pub fish the following correspondence on the above matter between him and Attorney General Churchill, as regards the legality of any act the Governor may wish to be instituted against the importation of diseased stock into our midst, and in order to show how our statutes stand upon the question, and also the remedy, ii. there be any:
 PREsooTT, A. T., Aug. 6, 1884.
 HoN. CLARK CHURCHILL, Attorney General of Arizona. -Sir:-I am applied to, officially, to take some action to pre- vent the importation of cattle into this Territory form infected States and Ter ritories
 P. Will you phase inform me what 1 can do Tn the premises, as l desire to protect the cattle interests of Arizona. Respect fully yours, H. M. VAN ARMAN,
 Acting Governor of Arizona.
The weekly Arizona miner., 1884-08-15
THE ATTORNEY GENERALS REPLY.
PRESCOTT, A. T., Aug. s, 1884

PRESCOTT, A. T., Aug s, 1884.
 HON. H. NJ. VAN ARMAN, Acting Gov ernor of Arizona. Siir:-In reply to your communication informing me that you are applied to to take action to prevent the importation of cattle into Arizona from States and Territories infected by cattle diseases and asking my opinion as to what you are authorized to do iD the premises, have to say Upon an ex- animation of the statutes of Arizona and of the United States, l have as yet found no legislation directly bearing upon the subject, and in abSence of any statutory provisions expressly authorizing the Ex- ecutive Department of the Government to. act in the premises, the remedy must be left to the judiciary. The power to arrest and puG and detain live stock ips quarantine, unless 1t be necessary to pre- serve the public health, in the absenge of legislation expressly authorizing iF and
 
 directing the modus of carryinsfit out, can only be exercised indirectly, and then only by and through the legal process of the courts. The bringing of cattle in fected by contagious disease into the Territory and thereby .jeopardizing tie health of the cattle now here, amounts to a public nuisance which is criminal offense, by the Common law, which pre- vails here, and upon the proper com-. plaint made to the courts having juris- diction of public offeases, taken into the custody of the Sheriff; and, upon convic- tion, the guilty party should be fined and the nuisance ,abated in such manner as the court by its judgment should direct The prosecution should be in the coun ty where the .offense Is committed, and the remedy which the courts may admin ister is complete. Your Opedient Serv't.,
 CLARK CHURCHILL,
 Attorney General.
