and forwarded to Auditor Hughes; ex- cept for forwarding to Auditor Hughes, no other request was made upon you.
 Upon your certified accounts, as re- quested, Auditor Hughes issued the warrants
 The reasons assigned now for re- fusing to endorse them were equally known to you at the time you furnish ed the vouchers for Auditor Hughes; 1; in fact when your Chairman, MT. flakes, first brought i'll the statements, he delivered also to be turned over to Auditor Hughes, the Meador warrants now mentioned by you, showing there by that there was no misunderstood ing, and in fact, my letter of October 4th is too plain to be misunderstood.
 How you gentlemen can justify your action, in this matter is your business and not mine, except where you say that your estimates, or warrants, have been repeatedly presented to you (me) by said Board to countersign i; the latter also submitting to you, at the same time, all information and vouchers you have requested in con nection herewith, etc" Do you not know that the record of two lawsuits shows directly to the contrary of the above statement? Mr. flakes did ad- init to me that he supposed the suits were because I would not recognize Auditor Meador.
 If you gentlemen will take the troub- le to examine why you brought two law suits against me, you will find that it was because you did not do what you now say you did not do.
 I can hardly believe that you have so little regard for your regulations as to allow your own records to so falsify themselves. Respectfully,
 LEWIS WoLFLEY, Governor.

Go to the Courts.

Governor Wolhey should either re- quire his appointees to Territorial offices to submit their claims to the courts whose duty it is to adjudicate such controversies, or he should rec ognize the Zulick appointees. If he accepts the opinion of Attorney Gen eral Miller that all the laws passed after the expiration of 60 days are void, he is bound to recognize the ap- pointees of Governor Zulick, unless it is conceded that he has the power 10 remove at will One thing is certain: :: if Governor Wolfley insists upon hay ing congress pass law legalizing the acts passed by the legislature which convened after he assumed the office of governor, he tacitly admits that the acts of the said legislature are illegal, and if they are, by what authority does Governor Wolfiey refuse to recognize the territorial officials appointed by Zulick and refuses to allow them the legal compensation for the performance of their official duties? The fact is Attorney General Miller. Secretary NOole nor congress HAS llyInlnS to uo with this Arizona muddle. It is a matter which belongs to the courts, and after it has passed upon the ques- ton submitted and it then appears that congressional enabling act is necessary it will be time enough then to move for such an act. But our court should be appealed to first. If those holding Governor Wolfley's commission have not sufficient faith in their title to the office they claim, to go into court, they should throw them up, and thus end the muddle. \ If they have faith in their title they should force their adversaries into court, and the territory would be soon relieved of its present very unhappy condition of two sets of officials at tempting to run its affairs.-Star.

RETURN OF THE WARRANTS

RETURN OF THE WARRANTS. OFFICE OF THE BOARD OF DIREcToRs,l OF THE INSANE ASYLUM OF ARIZoNA,}
 PHENIX, Ariz., Nov. 5, 1889.
 To Lewis Wolfey, Governor of Ari-
 zona Territory;
 SIR The Board of Directors of the Insane Asylum of Arizona have the honor to herewith return to your Ex- cellency the warrants you transmitted to the board without any solicitation on our part, per your favor of the 24th, 25th and 1st inst, l75 in number, and amounting in the aggregate to $8,- 613.91, signed by Thomas Hughes as auditor, and countersigned by your self, and intended to cover the ex- penses of the insane asylum for the months of May, June, July, August and September, as the board cannot accept said warrants for reasons as follows, to-wit;
 First, because the board has made requisition to the acting Territorial Auditor, J. F. Meador, for the expenses of said asylum for each of said months as required by law, and have received Territorial warrants to cover said re- quisitiop so made, signed by said J. E. Meador as auditor, and with the impression of the seal of sad auditors office thereon, which warrants ahave been repeatedly presented to you by the board to countersign, also admit ting to you at the same time all in formation and vouchers you have re- quested in connection herewith, but you have in several instances refused to countersign the same because said warrants were signed 5y said J. F. Meador; ::.,.diior, and the board having now said warrants so issued by said J F. Meador, auditor, ill their possession they cannot with consistency and safety with their official duty, ae- cept another set of warrants intended to cover the same purposes; and fol the further reason that the warrants herewith returned were not issued upon any requisition of the board upon said Thomas Hughes, but upon youl motion without any authority to dc so from this board.
 Second, because said warrants dc not cover the actual amount expended by the board in the maintenance O said asylum during the months which said warrants are intended to cover neither are they in the form required by law-each warrant being made payable to the board for the beneft of one particular person named there in, thereby destroying the method tho board has adopted in keeping the ac counts of the asylum, and lastly, be cause the said warrants bear the sea of said office of the Territorial auditor and there being but one seal to, salC office, and the true and original sea of said office. being in the possession o J. F. Meadar, the acting auditor of tn Territory, to the personal knowledg, of this board, therefore it is very evi dent that the seal placed upon tn warrants you transmitted to the. boaT' which are herewith enelQsed, mus be forgery of th,se. seal of said office and tbe. mSYembers of this board not dg sirSng to lay themselves liable to crin inal prosecutions for aiding and abet ting of fegged warrants of the Terr tory they respectfully return said wal rants to you to do with them as t you may seem best in the premises, l Respectfully,

 DIRECTORS.
 EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT
 OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR,
 PHENIX, Ariz., October 4, 18S9.) To the Honorable Board of Directors of the Insane Asylum, Phenix, Ari- Zona
 GENTLEMEN Tn addressing you as above l desire to have it distinctly un- derstood, that do not by any means acknowledge your legal right to the name or the duties but, in view of the necessities of that Institution, and the same is the case with similar institu- tions, I recognize the fact that the necessary running expenses must be met. 1 have ill no instance refused to allow warrants from the proper off cial, when the same have been sup ported by reasonable vouchers.
 refused your estimates for May and June for the want of proper vouchers. The Supreme Court de- cided that my demand was legal, and since that time your Honorable Board has not seen fit to present any claim, either the old or the new one.
 It has now come to my knowledge that the failure on the part of your Honorable Board to act, is working considerable hardship on the con tractors, if not very considerably increasing the cost of supplies.
 If your action is through any mis understanding, I hereby advise you that, if you will make up itemized ac counts for the months of May, June July, August and September, sup ported by duplicate vouchers for the supplies and salaries of the superin. tendent and other actual employees 3i the Insane Asylum and will forward the same with certified copies of the advertisements and contracts under which the supplies are furnished, tc Auditor Hughes at Tucson, he will, i found correct, audit the same and for ward the proper warrants.
 Very Respectfully, LEWIS WOLFLEY,
