Now THAT one appointment has es- caped from Tucson and is being viewed with great complacency by a gentle man in Final county, there is some hope that possibly some other little appointment may manage to slip its shackles and get away. For instance, why shouldn't Cochise have the office of Unikd States Marshall MT. A L. Grow, one of our esteemed fellow citi- zens, is a candidate for the position. If the idea that the defenders of the Union should be given preference over other applicants is to be carried out MT. Grow should receive the place he desires, by reason of his service in the Union army during the war of the re- bellion. Cochise, the strongest Re publican county in the Territory, has not received any sort of recognition, and this treatment Is not being very highly appreciated.
