] should say hat the choice was decidedly
IN favor of the former.
Professor Graham never ran a paper in
his life, and his maNims are the purest
humbug. II Will be safe for you TO disobey
my one Of them, and act according to the
dictates Of the strong common sense You
naturally possess. though you are some
times n little visionary. The - College
School of journalism, or any similar %institu-
ton, will always be a failure and a snare, Ia
my opinion, and 1 told you so when you
would insist on going there and quixotic-
ally rushing Off to your beloved wilderness,
and investing all your small means in u
printing office. | do not intend to reproacll
you, but | do think you are too fond OF per-
sonalities, and too prone to indulge in the
extravagant assertions peculiar to the west.
My advice IS to pursue as pacific n course
as is now possible for you, and l will try to
see you about Nov. /. A libel suit is no
fun, and If you have one you will be very
careful about getting into another.
Don't be discouraged, my dear, or hest
tate to back down down from any POSITION
your better Judgment tells you Is untenable.
Couldn't you in some way mollify Ire
maine without II too great a sacrifice of your
self respect, | only throw this out as a
suggestion.
Annie and the children are all well, und
send you much love. A~Tectionately yours,
FRED.
P.S.-Have you ever heard Of my old
friend and chum, Dick Tremaine, Perhaps
he is IL relative OF your ~bugbear. Better
find out and write me.
lFrom The Blue Eagle Herald OF Oct. Is, 1851
Less than a month will see either Traut-
man or Tremaine elected to represent the
enlightened people OF Arizona in the til
congress OF the United States, and we are
pleased to notice with how little personal
acrimony or mud singing the campaign
has been 50 far conducted. Whichever
gentleman proves to have n majority OF the
voters on his side, we believe that our in
terests will be well looked utter. and though
our inclinations prompt us to hope that Col.
Trautman will be returned, still we must
aimit that in Judge Tremaine the ''Peo
PIES" party possess n tower Of strength, and
that they have shown more wisdom in their
choice than in years gone by. May the
best man win, is the prayer OF The Herald.
The noisomc drippings from the foul
mouth of The Deadhead Gazette mark the
only unpleasant effects Of political rivalry,
and are beneath our notice. 1t is rumored
that the editor Of The Gazette is the man
who robbed the Tucson stage about a year
ago and compelled women TO even give up
their wedding rings-one of the most ruff
iianly and despicable acts ever committed
on the soil of this territory. This is only
rumor, however, and we cannot vouch for
its accuracy; but from what we know OF the
man it seems probable enough. We are
told that Sheriff Benton will soon take
steps to put him where he b~elones-to wit,
behind the bars.

THEY ARE SUED FOR LIBEL
IN II SUM oF $780, 900,
by JUDGE TREMAIYE.
As we prophesied in our edition of Sept.
10, the calumniators of a good man, the
myrmidons of the .boodle'' ring and cor
rupt Office holding classes, are at last fatally
cntanglcd in the meshes of the law.
Messrs. Levi & Harrington will no longer
revile ut all that is good and pure, or pam
der to tho low instincts and vile tastes of
the inhabitants of Blue Eagle. Last Satur-
day they were formally served with tho
summons and complaint in an action
brought by Judge Tremainc for defamation
of character, wherein he lays his damages
at $40, 900. The verdict is of course a fore
gone conclusion, and when indicted by tho
grand jury, as they soon will be, their Grim
inal tendencies will bo cifcctually squelched,
and the good people OF Arizona can again
sleep peacefully in their beds, conscious that
these plotters against character and reputa-
ton will vex them no more.
The full particulars, together with the CON
tents of the complaint, will be found on the
third pago OF this issue.

From TIN Blue Eagle Herald OF oct. %, Iss-
Since that representative of the border
rufiians and dcspcradoes Of Deadhead, the
favorito hero of the scurrilous Gazette,
and the boss Greaser of the camp, has
screwed his courage up to the point Of suing
us for libel. we have received more assur-
ing letters from our friends in Zuni county
and elsewhere thun we had even hoped for
conclusive proof that our fearless course
in the matter had won the appreciation of
good citizens everywhere. The gang Of
outlaws to which this Tremaine belongs,
and who seem very proud of him, will
probably try TO intimidnte us on the day Of
trial, but we warn them now that the ut
tempt, if made, will be made in vain, for
we shall appear before the Judgment scat
nrmed-with what. cur enemies will learn
soon enough for their discontinue. In this
connection, let us ask, who robbed Wells &

Among the many pleasant incidents of
the congratulatory serenade rendered to
the Hon. Richard l.. Tremaine, delegate
elect, last evening by his friends and con-
stituents, was n very clever littio SPEECH Of
the Hon. Frederick c. Harrington, of New
York city, who in Response TO repeated
cries Of ''Harrington!' "~Har"ingtonii said
that his subject was not Harrington, but
Tremaine. He then proceeded to give ii hu-
morous account OF how he and our honored
townsmau had become acquainted ut II

they were both students ut - college,
and that the friendship thus successfully CO
