PIMA COUNTY GRAND JURY

The report of the grand jury in Pi-
maco. is in some respects an able doc
ument, but in others it assumes facts
not borne out by the record. Laying
aside the stretch of Imagination which
induced the grand jury to make a
wholesale attack, or any attack at all,
upon a legislative assembly, and the
ridicule which must necessarily attach
10 the fact that the report is signed by
such an ex-legislator as Dick Rule,
and there remains the circumstance
that the document asserts, in some
particulars, what cannot be proven.
Take, for example, its mention of the
allowance to w. 0. O'Neil, by the leg
stature, Of $500 for services as short
hand reporter Under the law the
District Court Reporter receive $1,000
per year as salary, payable half yearly
out Of the Territorial treasury. He
cannot draw his pay except on the
certificate of the Judge of the Court,
'that the said reporter has attended
one term Of said Court during the half
year for which he ask for payment,
and performed the duties required Of
him therein, if term Of said court has
been held during said half year" The
evidence before the judiciary commit
tees, of both Houses of the Legislature
showed that the term Of court had
been held, as required by law; that
AIr. O'Neil was in attendance during
said term and performed some work
as shorthand reporter; that he was
ready at all times to do whatever work
might be required OF him; and that
Judge Pinney refused to give him the
necessary certificate because he had
not done $500 worth of work, in the
Judges opinion. The legislature very
properly took the ground that the
short hand reporters are entitled to
their salaries if the provisions of the
law are complied with, and that the
amount of work done by them has
nothing to do with the matter. Mr..
O'Niel could not draw his salary with
out the certificate of the Judge which
was refused. 1t was thought, and
justly so, that Judge Pinney had mis-
taken his duty in not issuing the GER
tiicate, and that the territory should
keep it's obligation with O'Neil by pay
ing him what it had contracted to
pay.

A letter. to the Gloje-Democrat from
FL Paso, Mexico, says that their is a
good deal Of private talk among the
intelligent, Property-ownins Mexicans
in Chichuahua in favor Of annexation
to the United States Of the northern
tier Of Mexican States. No open
movement has been made, nor has the
press touched on the subject, but the
letter asset is that their is strong un-
der-current among the classes above
mentioned in favor of linking their
destiny to that Of the great Northern
Republic.

A delegation of Pueblo Indians from
the vicinity Of Albuquerque, n. NJ,
called on the Commissioner of Indian
affairs recently for the purpose of pre-
testing against their recent assessment
for taxes as citizens of that Territory
These Indians were citizens of Mexico
and in the treaty with the United
States by which New Mexico became
a part Of the United States, the inhab
tants of the ceded territory were not
to be deprived of their rights Of citi-
zenship. While these Indians have
been citizens of the United States
during these years they have been re
garded as other Indians who are not
citizens. They, however, are entirely
Independent Of government aid and oc
cupy lands under grants. This year,
for the first time, the New Mexican
government decided to assess these In
dams, thus recognizing their status as
citizens. To this the Indian objects
as the tax would be burden on them,
and they prefer to live as other IN
dams, without exercising the rights of
citizens. They had an interview with
Secretary Lamar, but no decision has
as yet been arrived at The result Of
the visit Of the delegation to Washing
ton will also cover the Pima Indians
in this territory, who were taken in
under the same treaty, and should the
New Mexican government be sustain
ed, these tribes will have right to
vote, which if exercised, will bring in
to our politics a new element, which
our local politicians viii not fail to
appreciate.
