 Cooks bondsmen have not yet pald the amount of his dsfalcatiOn, says Attorney General Rush.
 The Courier this morning affects to point with pride to the fact that Cooks dedication has heen paid by his bonds men. Notwithstanding repeated asssr- tions to this effect, SHERIFF MUL. vENon INFORMS US THAT THE DEFALCA- TIoN HAS NOT YET BEEN PAID IN FULL. The Southern Pacific railroad con- pany has notified the committee on transportation of the Masonic grand lodge of this territory that it will carry passengers from all points in Arizona to Maricopa and return. who desire to attend the grand lodge, for one and one third fare, round trip.
 In answer to d paragraph in the Courier this morning, We will state that Messrs. Fitzpatrick and RhOades stand on the question of county division ex- actly as Messrs. Daggs and Goddard. They have said publicly that they do not expectit, and in view of the oppOsi- ton to it will not agitate it. We have not heard either, as in the case of MT. Daggs, of their explaining to their Flagstaff friends that they did not mean anything when they said they were not in favor of county division. The JoURNAL-MINER has aemonstra- {, q that if there was steal i'll the How ell road it was q democratic one, having originated and passed legislative body having democratic majority. The commissioners originally appointed were democrats. The above is mat ter of history, not assertion; so 1t seems there Is nothing more to be said upon that point. We have alsO.dsm- onstrated, by logical deductions, that if it were steal ss charged by our con- temporary repeatedly, J. R. Walker was responsible for it. So that, both points contended for by us have been fully maintained. Our contemporary has not yet answered whether 1t was mistake on it's part charging it as steal, or whether it will insist that the democratic candidate has been party to the theft There IS no getting around this proposition, one or the other must be correct.
