COUNTY p,v,s,om.

4SOWtt OsVsSsSWs
 h an open letter to Councilman Moore, published in the Flagstaff Demo crat, ln regard to the formation ot new county, W. L. Van Horn travels out Of his way somewhat to get slap in a, the Prescott papers. He falsely or through ignorance says that 'the only voice yet heard from the opposition has reen walling from the Prescott, papers, (,he only organs ot opposirion) lest Dear Old Yayapai may be dismembered. They cry injustice but fall to produce any facts or arguments to sustain their senile clambr."
 The JoURNAL-MlNRR, speaking for itself oniy, asserts right here that Il has had very little to say e,her for or agains, county division. IL has said that some of the arguments used by our neiehbors of the northeastern part of tbe county are net wi,hou, force. This may have been the "senile clamor" spoken of by ,his adolescent limb of the law in bis open letter. Mr. Van Horn, in com mon with many other citizens of Flag .taff, assumes great deal that originates nom false premises, la their agitation of county division. As an evidence of this as stated above, Mir. Van Horn asserts that the Prescott papers are the only ores yet heard Tn opposition to county division. Does the gentlemen not know or If he does know does he intentien- ally miss,ate facts, that petition bear irg threefourths of the voters of this county has been forwarded to the legis- laturc prote ing against county division.
 Ishe IS also ignorant of the fact that said petition bears the name to a man of every resident of Verde valley, who would be in this proposed new county, Again Mir. Van Horn says;
 "As for injustice done, as we take our pro rataof Indebtedness, in what pos sibIe way can our withdrawal effect the taxpayers ?" In this he again shows either ignorance or wilful intention to misrepresent facts. IL We have been correctly informed, ana our information IS obtained from an advocate of county division, the proposed new county would take in round numbers about $s. 900, 900 of the g., ,ooo, 900 of taxable property of the county and assume about $50, ooo of the $500. 900 of indebted ness. h other sords they propose to take two-fif;hs of the taxable property and one-seventh of the debt. MT. Van Horn previous 10 bis entering the prac- ice of law was engaged m teaching $ heci. We would like to inquire of him by what rule of mathematics he Is able |, figure up 2 pro rata out of the above figures. Again the petition sent to the legislature against county division contains the names, we are told, Of a of the tax payers of Williams. Let Coccnino advocates curb their desires somewhat; let them agree on l,ne al or near the Ir2th parallel of | longitude; let lhem take their pro rata of which they helped to create, and saddle the county with and | hen see Ii they are so bitterly opposed, | either ny the other residents of the county or the "senile clamor" of the Prescott papers.
