desirable end those subscribers who have

EpITon MIsER:

EDITon MEER:
notice in an editorial correspondence
from Phoenix, dated April 18th, to the
Prescott Courier, signed M., Mr.. NJ
calls me some bad names. That is what
may be expected Of Democrat. I shall
not answer NJ. by calling him names, bu,
/ would like NJ. to answer some ques.
tiohs.
First. What has Yavapai county eve,
done that she should expect Mohave
county to stand in and help her?
What fayors have your county eye'
granted?
What has Mohave county ever asked
for, either from Yavapal county or from
the Territory OF Arizona?
What special laws has she had passed
for her benefit?
You give it as your opinion that the
acts passed after March 21st are wrong
and revolutionary.
How was it with the First and Elev-
enth Legislatures? Were their acts rev.
olutionary?
In looking over the journals ! notice
that the Eleventh held over eight days
and then voted themselves SIC, 800. A
Republican Governor vetoed this meas
ure, but both houses carried the Doodle
measure over the veto. Inotice that Mr..
Southwick OF Mohave (Republican) voted
against this Doodle, but Mr.. Cornwall
(Democrat) voted IN favor Of taking the
Doodle, notwithstanding the Republican
Governors veto. As for the political
standing Of the entire Legislature ! am
not posted. Thanks to a Republican
auditor he stood by the interests Of the
Territory. Mr.. M. have you forgotten
these facts?
Was this revolutionary? How was it
about the Thirteenth Legislature? 1t
was glorious Democratic racket.
Do you think it wrong and revolution
ary to turn Democrats out OF Office?
As for that county division, / did not
work for either party. did not consider
it my duty to do so. l voted to divide
the county OF Yavapai, and believe that
nine-tenths OF the voters Of Mohave
county win uphold me in doing 80.
The facts are, your tax-collector has
been getting over the line and collecting
taxes that belong to Us. You ask the
question that you accuse me Of asking;
What are you going to do about it? The
line between Mohave and Yavapai
county was fixed over twenty years
since and lived up to until you got over
the line, and your officials now attempt to
lie out of it.
Come up and settle like men and we
will stand in with you on all matters Of
right, but no stealing will be connte-
nanced. Yavapai county has always
kicked and bucked when her territory
was divided. You objected to taking off
Maricopa county; Apache county the
same; Gila county the same.
You can water your census returns az
well in a small territory as in a large one,
II this is your game.
I hardly think that Mohave county
will uphold all Of your acts unless repre-
sented by Democrats. w. IL. HARDY.

WORD or CAUTION.

During ramble over the city per
son will see tackled near the doors of a
great many houses the ominous green
pasteboard on which is printed in black
letters the word ''Diphtheria. We do
not know that there is an unusual ex-
hibition Of these placards just at this
time, but we do know that they are
more common than is desirable. We
have no reason to suppose that the
health department has been slack in it's
enforcement of sanitary laws, and
what we now have to say is more in the
way of caution than of censure. We
know that diphtheria is now epidemic
in New York and other cities, without
the physicians being able to discover
any special local cause for its outbreak.
This would suggest diphtheric condi-
tion of the atmosphere; the germs are
in the air, and every precaution should
be taken that they find no lodging
place for disease breeding purposes.
We are approaching the heated term,
when the swill barrel is apt to become
the home of diseased germs; and un-
fortunately for this city, we have no
garbage system to boast of. The ex-
pensiveness of garbage removal is a
temptation to great many persons to
permit their garbage to accumulate.
In many cases the swill barrel will
stand unemptied for a week, and in
some instances two weeks, at time,
when as a matter of fact the garbage
ought to be removed every day. AS a
matter of good sanitation it would pay
the city to have the garbage removed
every day from every house at public

THAT BIG sWINDLE.

It is natural that those who deal in
real estate and those who engage in the
business Of loan1ng money on mortgages
should be excited over the develop
ments made within the last few days
which tend to show the existence in
this community Of gang of swindlers
who seem to have commenced opera
tions on gigantic scale, but who were
fortunately nipped in the bud. We are
not prepared to say that any of the per-
sons who have been arrested, or for
whose arrests warrants are now out, are
really parties to the conspiracy: yet
enough has been revealed to show that
there was deep-laid and well-planned
swindling scheme set afoot. The auth
critics should leave no stone unturned
to get at the bottom of this business,
and to secure the arrest and conviction
of every scoundrel who was engaged in
it. And to the accomplishment of this
end every good citizen Of Ramsey should
lend his energies and devote his time.
There is no telling how far these swind-
ling operations have extended, and
there surely will be no telling where
they will end unless the job is promptly
squelched and the rascals sent to state
prison.

soMETHING INANAME.

One of the coal mines in Clay county,
Ind, has the name of JAMES G..
BLAINE as an indication of the line Of
political thought current there. The
operatives of this and the other mines
about it, few months ago, had their
enthusiasm stirred by the pictures
drawn by BLAINE, HARRISON and
other artists of their school. of the pros
perity that was to come under the tri-
umph OF the protective policies. They
helped to carry the state. for the high
tariff and big wages. Gov. HovEY, the
Republican executive, now issues an
official proclamation, asking for aid for
these 5000 miners. Hesays it sis simply
a question of humanity to people who
are suffering for want of bread" 1t is
to be hoped that ample relief will be
afforded. however difficult it may be to
suppose that such condition exists in
the state of HARRISON and at the
BLAINE mines. The dispatches report
a very similar condition in the Braid
wood coal district in Illinois, with 800
miners starving and mot less than
5000 women and children in absolute
want of food" Can the prophets have
been mistaken?

SIMON CAMERON,

That man may become distinguished
without manifesting the quality of
greatness was demonstrated by the pub
lie career of SIMON CAMERON. There
was much in his public life to admire,
yet there was nothing to emulate. BY
shear force of character he impressed
his individuality upon our national his
tory, still his methods were reprehen-
sible and subversive of pure government.
He was a distinct and distin-
guished figure in the stormiest scenes
of American politics. he was leader
among leaders, and that, too, in an
arena where brains counted for some
thing, and yet SIMON CAMERoN's name
and career will not be handed down to
posterity as the model after which
future craftsmanship shall be patterned.
He was the inventor of machine poll
tics, and the first man who was accused
of buying his way into the senate. rhe
