WE ARE in receipt of a pamph, let containing q full report of the proceedings had before Governor Zulick in the investigation of the charges against the Insane Asylum Directors. The specifications are twelve in number, and charge off cial misconduct, neglect of duty and various misappropriations ot the funds intrusted to their custody
 After full hearing the Directors were removed and others appointed to fill the vacancies created. 1t Is a fact lamentable, yet true, that too many of the public funds of this Territory have been used and squan- dered by those to whom they were entrusted with a recklessness and audacity, but little, if in any de- gree, removed from premeditated criminalitv. The bottom facts in the case of these directors may or may not disclose a wicked and wan ton criminal design, but we do say that so many we'll known and easily established precedents of official peculation are to be found in this Territory, that it is but natural to infer they are pursuing the ordi- nary methods of public plunder in- augurated by others, and carried out with success and impunity. If the directors think they were not sufficiently given the benefit of the reasonable doubt, their experience may, at least, serve good purpose in furnishing an example which
 will teach similar offenders that public appropriations are made for public use and not to fill the pock-
 cts of the custodians and further
 the ends of private speculation or

OUR exchanges note the proposed shipment into this Territory of large numbers of Texas cattle, whose owners are fleeing from the starvation which is threatened upon the ranges of that State. The grass at present does hot promise to be more than sufficient for the stock already upon it, and the annual rains are anxiously awaited as the only hope of improvement. If we are to be raided by these horned tramps from Texas, and the rowing hocks of New Mexico, the outlook for the future is certainly not very encouraging. If these Texas cattle are taken in a starving condition from their ranges, and driven over a long, parched and barren trail to the already taxed pastures of Ari- zOna, we do not see how they will go through the coming winter with out great mortality, and at the same time cutting off the supply of sustenance of our resident herds. The ranges of this county are al- ready stocked to the extent they can be p:oftably used, and a fur ther inundation by numerous herds of famished and starving animals cannot but result in serious injury to all concerned.

enterprise. Since the Governor h.. S begun the good work, we hope he will not relax in the righteous un- dertaking until the Road Commis- sioners of Apachercour1ty have rem dered an account of their steward ship, and have shown to a waiting people exactly what has been spent and how much remains of the SIP 900 which has been entrusted to their hands. It would be equally interesting to know for what pur- poses expenditures have been made. These are matters the people have right to know; it is the duty of the proper officials to make the in quiry, and if the Commissioners have followed the line of duty, as defined by law, it will be doing them a tardy justice by fully an- swering and quieting the statements which are being made on every hand that 'there is something rot ten in Denmark" Let us have an investigation by all means, for it will only expose whatis wrong and justify what is right, and cannot possibly injure a conscientious and faithful officer.

THE "Holbrook Town Lot Com. pany" last year only rendered to the Assessor for taxation 16O lots but in the assessment of the pres. ent year map was used, and 377 lots checked off as the property ot the Company. It is reasonable to suppose that some of the lots were sold during the past year, and therefore it is fair estimate to say that taxes were paid on not more than one half the real estate owned by the Company. The assessed value was only $12.5O per lot, and from all the information we can gather many of them are held at a market value of from one to three hundred dollars.

A DISPATCH from Washington of the 5th inst, says although nomi- nally Secretary Manning accepted the suggestion of the President about continuing in office, it is very well understood by both of them that he will never go back to the Treasury Department. The Presi- dent IS not ready to make a new Secretary just now and if he needs the time he will have some months to think over the matter. His de. sire is to find some man to take the place who will be able properly to fill it.

A PORTLAND, Oregon, dispatch of the 12th inst. says unofficial re- turns from every county in the State, except two, give Herman (rep.) for Congress GOO majority ; Pennoyer (dem.) for Governor, l 800 majority; Mcbride (rep.) for Secretary of State, 200 majority ; Webb (dem.) for Treasurer, 400 majority; Strahan (dem.) for Su- preme Judge, POO majority; Me Flroy (rep,) for Superintendent of Public Instruction, and Baker(rep. ] for State Printer, each have 900 majority. It is possible that the returns yet to come in may elect the democratic candidate for Sec retary of State, and the republican candidate for Supreme Judge. The republicans have elected beyond doubt their Congressman, Superin- tendent of Public Instruction and State Printer. The democrats have elected beyond doubt the Governor and Treasurer.

ACCORDING to the showing made in the last issue of the Critic the amount of Apache county's in debtedness as evidenced by out standing warrants reaches the sum of $11S,27327. With such an ar ray of figures, there seems to be but one solution of the problem of payment, and that is to be found in funding the debt. These war rants all bear interest at the rate of ten per cent per annum thereby adding yearly the sum of $12,0O0 to the grievous burden which the county is carrying. The income of the county is wholly inadequate to meet this severe tax, and at the same time provide a revenue for current expenses, and as conse- quence the warrants have so de- preciated in their face value, that the necessary expenses to be in- cured are about doubled. County funding bonds, at a much reduced rate of interest and maturing at long periods of time, would absorb all of this floating indebtedness, re- lieve the county annually of the payment of from three to five thou sand dollars in way of interest and enable 1t without serious inconve- nience to provide a sinking fund for the final payment of all dues
 In the present condition of affairs the large amount of outstanding warrants, with a arge and steadily increasing interest account acts as constant drain upon the treasury without appreciable reduction of debt, and securities must be can celed only t" be replaced by others bearing the same enormous and in evitable interest. The treasury is anxiOusly watched by impatient debtors, and its vaults present condition of chronic vacuum. The large amount of annual accumula- ting interest, makes such an inrOad upon collected revenues that no substantial reduction in the princi- pal can be made, after the incidents of government have been satisfied. Thus no opportunity is allowed to recuperate, and as the volume of debt increases, the expense account receives the same impetus, through a depreciation in values and the ir- redcemable character of securities. With the debt funded and a sink ing fund provided for, county war rants would at once assume a par value in the market and our run nlng expenses be reduced to about one-half the present figures, and the saving would furnish ample re- sources to pay interest on the bonds and provide a sufficient sinking fund, without addition to the pres ent rate of taxation. The credit of the county would be strengthened a condition of affairs far more sat isfactory would ensue; a dollar in county scrip would represent dol lar in value; bills and bids would be scaled to a cash basis; county contracts could be let with the spir- tied competition which cash pay ments encourage; the uncertainty of values would not exist to fur nish speculation an excuse for ex- orbitant charges, and the ability to pay as you go, would enable us to dictate rather than willingly ac- cept terms. With the debt funded, a prudent and economic admins tration of affairs would soon re- lieve the county of all embarrass-

Of this board is to aid feeble churches in supporting
