 Last Sunday afternoon Justice Ross and
 Francisco Sonoqui got into row in some
 manner that We are not aware of, and in the
 fight Sonoqui got the worst of it. There
 being no other Justice besides Ross living
 h this city. warrant was s" o,e out before
 Associate Justice of the Supreme Court
 Barnes who happened to be here at the time,
 charging Ross with an "assault with deadly
 weapon," and made returnahle before the
 nearest Justice of the Peace. On Tuesday, Justice Thomas Rain, came in from Adonde,
 up for trial. After hearing all of the testi-
 rnony for the Territory, the Court, on Mo-
 tion of Attorney George K light for the de- fense, the defendant was discharged, there
 being not enough evidence to sustain the charge; but the Court ordered the defendant to appear before him the same evening at P. N. to answer to the charge Of "plain assault. On being tried on this charge the Court found Judge Ross guilty and inded him the cost, tS23l or twenty-three days. The 6ae was settled. A great deal excite. ment existed among our Mexicans citizens over the atflir and they were afraid and .alked about not getting justice. and when the result on the first charge was heard it convinced them and made them more angry. This coald have been avoided if the District Attorney had examined into the case more thoroughly and found out what his witness. es were going to testify to, and thus he would have saved an expenses to the Coun- ty, and avoided an ill-feeling among our Mexican population caused to be more ill. tense by the failure to sustain the first charge. 1t is the desire of all Americans nere to sec justice reldsrei oar Mexican neighbors and citizen, and fnrthur they will see that it is done; but at the same time they mast not allo v themselves to 5s misled into the belief that they have been wrorRsd to greater extent than they really are In the case above referred to the law has been vindicated and Justice meted ont to the injured party in accordance with the facts of the case and all should be satisfied
 A banker of Tucson named Henderson has filed complaint with the Supervisors of Pima-co.. that Wells, Fargo & Co. are ioing an exchange business by selling money orders without license. As consequence ! the agent of the company have received mo- tiication of the withdrawal of sale: of such | orders from all offices in the Territory. This | system is great convenience to scores of | places where there are no postal money 'tfi;es aud no means of transmitting money.

The company say they do not believe the law s rightly construed, but the profit on these orders is 80 small they cannot afford to fight t. An effort will be made at the next Legislat ture to amend this law.
