A few more questions, and we will stop for time until the Chairman has time to answer. Mir. Chairman will you please state whether or not you ever wrote a letter to any one, in which you stated that the rail- road, or parties who built the Nav ajo bridge, had offered to do the same for $500, or for any sum less than $500, and will you state to the best of your knowledge, whether the sum of $1 300 was ever actually paid to the party or parties who built that bridge? Did the con tractor give bond guaranteeing the bridge for five years, and did they build it according to specifications named in your printed advertise ment for bids?

WHILE rummaging amid the dus- ty records of the Court House we discovered an interesting document accompanying the report of the Treasurer in January, 1886. Both the report and note of submission accompanying it, are in the hand writing of the Treasurer's clerk and the latter reads as follows:
 ST. JOHNS, ARIZONA, Jan. 4, 1886.
 Hon. Board of Supervisors, Apache County, Arizona-Gentleme here with enclose you my annual report for the year 1885, showing balance due the Territory and County of $1s,249.l5. I would respectfully represent that on ac- count of the robbery of my safe on the 27th instant, from which was taken the

A DISPATCH from Portland, Ore gon, of the 14th inst. says returns from counties hitherto unrepOrted, and estimated only, show that Me Bride, republican, for Secretary of State, has at least 800 majority, and Strachan, democrat, for Supreme Judge, from 100 to 150. This gives the republicans three out of the six State officers, viz: Secretary of State, State Printer and Superin- tendent of Public Instruction. The democrats get the Governor, Treas urer and Supreme Judge. AS the Governor, Secretary of State and Treasurer constitute a Board for the management of all State insti- tutions, the democrats have control of the State. They now have two out of the three Supreme Judges, The lower house of the legislature will be democratic. The senate will be republican on account of hold ever members elected two years ann

 The report shows no credit wha:- ever for license taxes, and gives no explanation and makes no com ment concerning the omission. The letter of submission states the re- port as showing balance due the rerritoryand County of$18, ,249, ,I5," which was incorrect. because in fact there was balance due of $19,817.- 15, the sum of $1 ,56S being due for license taxes. The loss by robbery is set out and explained, but the $1 ,56S is conveniently omitted. The keeping of the books and the making out of reports was left en- tirely to the clerk, and its terms and tenor were absolutely and sole ly within his control he alone was conversant with the necessities of the situation, and he alone could suggest and carry out the expe- dients. Now will the Critic inform the people whose fault 1t was the matter was not called to the atten- ton of the Supervisors, and wheth- CT or not the Board ever gained the information from the Treasurer or his clerk, upon whom they relied, and whose duty 1t was to furnish it.. Again the letter referred to Is writ ten upon one of the letter heads of the Treasurer, which were printed in the job office of the HERALD, and the form set up by the clerk and in bold prominent characters, we find the following words first printed upon the page:
 All payments due this office must be paid in cash"
 Positively no checks or bankers drafts taken"
 All of which goes to show that the Treasurer and his clerk not only acted in violation of law, but knew it at the time of doing so. We thus see that the recent attack upon the Supervisors was unfounded and the statements being untrue, were wan ton and malicious, and on investi- gation illustrates the old saying "the fox is the finder"

THERE is a general strike in San Francisco of cooks and walters in most of the large restaurants in the city. Many restaurants were com peIled to close. Others ran short handed. The cause of the strike was the posting of rules for the control of cooks and walters which the strikers consider unjust.

United States Land Commission CT Sparks has issued the following circular to Registers and Receivers of land offices:
 By virtue of the power vested in the Secretary of the Interior by the first section of the act of June 3, 1878, entitled, "An act authorizing the citizens of Colorado, Nevada, and the Territories to fell and re- move timber on the public domain for mining and domestic purposes, ]" the following rules and regulations are hereby prescribed:
 1st. The act applies only to the States of Colorado and Nevada. and to the Territories of New Mex leo, Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, Da- kota, Idaho and Montana, and oth- CT mineral districts of the United States not specially provided for, and does not apply to the States of California or Oregon, nor to the Territory of Washington.
 Sd. The land from which timber is felled or removed, under the pro- visions of the act, must be known to be strictly and distinctly mineral in character and more valuable for mining than for timber or for any other purpose or use.

THE following act passed by the United States Senate May 26, 1886, was sent us by Mir. Henry Warren, General Manager of the Aztec Cat tie Company, limited, accompanied by the annexed letter, We publish both as an item of information and interest to our readers.

 EDITOR HERALD-As matter ot public interest in this county, l en- close you a copy of the bill regard ing the Atlantic & Pacific land grant, exactly as it passed the Sen, ate and House. The last lines were stricken out after full debate, and it virtually confirms the grant from Albuquerque to the Needles. The patents for the lands bought by this company will be undoubtedly issued some time during the pres ent year. Very truly yours,
 HENRY WARREN.

He had gone out for a promenade in the park of Berg Castle accompanied by Dr. Gudden, his physician. The king suddenly threw himself in Sternberg Lake and was drowned.

The opinion prevails that something is wrong, and the people must and will know how the matter stands.

THE Critic takes the HERALD se- verely to task and intimates that we apparently stand "cheek by jowl' with the perpetrators of the safe robbery, which occurred in De- cember last. The mendacity of the assertion and the spirit which ami mated its author, finds no parallel save in that patron saint of the Critic office who goes about "seek ing whom he may devour." In a collection of expert romancers, he would carry off the blue ribbon and be stamped twenty-two carats fine We had never been within the ter ritorial boundaries until about four months after the transparent trick had been plotted, planned and ex- ecuted, and therefore had escaped the misfortune of acquaintance with this self same author, whose talent heretofore never ventured be- yond the contemplation of petty and ignominous crimes. If posi- ton, duties, associations, compad- res. necessities and surrounding circumstances do not point to our esteemed Critic as participating principal, they certainly afford abundant grounds for thinking him an accessory before and after the fact. Experience had eminently fitted him for an adviser in such an undertaking, cupidity would tempt him to try it, and his New Mexican exploits have furnished the training necessary to escape the consequences. In fancied security, he raises the hue and cry of ''stop thief" and clamors with frantic en- ergy that attention may be with drawn from the custodian of the "boodle." With the astuteness of d fox, he doubles on the track, and under cover of the dust and dirt he is raising is trying to destroy the trail by joining with the pursuers. He reviles the Supervisors and sim ulates a righteous indignation that more intelligent efforts" to dis cover the hiding place of the rogues, were not brought to bear. We are at a loss to determine what more could have been done, and know of nothing which can bring the of lenders to light, unless the Critic with an eye to safety and business, would suggest to the Supervisors that large reward be offered, and immunity granted to some one who without honor even among thieves, would turn states evidence and give the job away. Ferdinand Mendez Pinto was but a type of thee, thou liar of the first magni- tude."
