THE CHIEF OF LIARS.

THE CHIEF OF LIARS.
 Cornered and defeated in logical ar gument in his debate with Governor Powers last Saturday night, c. Meyer Zulick not only evaded direct questions put to him, but stood before that great audience and "lied like horse thief" Has this man Zulick grown so depraved through his evil associations that he thinks the people of this county are such fools and knaves that he can stand up before them and deliberately ialsiiy, knowing that he is falsifying, and then expect the sufirages of the people? To show the infamy of this man TIE RE PUBLICAN will specify some of the most notorious of his lies.
 He lied when he said the reason the Asylum Directors were not prosecuted was because Clark Churchill was At torney General" I" for he well knew that the same day his message was published to the Fourteenth Legislature he ap- pointed Briggs Goodrich Attorney Gen eral, a man who had just been defeated for the Council in Maricopa county and who was under indictment at the time, a fact he had good reason to remember, for through his good offices said Attor- ney Generals salary was doubled; and he well knew that John A. Rush, another Democrat, succeeded Briggs Goodrich in office. Now he talks about abolishing the office in the interests Of economy.
 He lied when he stated that Clark Churchill created the Board of Pardons so that he could draw large mileage fees from the Territory. Clark Churchill was resident of Prescott, the capital, when the Board of Pardons was created, and afterwards, during the sessions of the Board, and therefore could not draw mileage.
 He lied when he said that the salaries and expenses of the Live Stock Sanitary Commission are paid by tax upon the cattle, when he well knew that, although that was true when the law was first created, that the Fifteenth Legislature relieved the cattle industry of this tax and made the expenses of the Commis- sion payable out of the General fund and Zulick signed the b'H.
 He lied when he said that John Dor rington received $900.00 for printing for one quarter from the present Board of Prison Commissioners. The truth is Darlington received trife over S2OO for printing more than quarters busi- ness,
 He lied when he said that Hon. Chas. R. Drake was appointed Receiver of the Tucson Land Office as reward for illegally continuing the session of the Fifteenth Legislature.
 He lied when he wantonly insulted Hon. Richard E. Sloan by calling him a briefless lawyer. "Dicky Sloan, who never had but three cases in his life and | two of those before a Justice of the Peace, and that he was appointed Asso- ciate Justice of the Supreme Court of Arizona as reward for his work in the Fifteenth Legislature"
 He tied in his speech on the plaza when he said he had nothing to do with the office of Territorial Geologist, but that Wolfey's Legislature was respon- sibe for it. The truth is that the office of Territorial Geologist was created by the Fourteenth Legislature and pro- vision was made for payment of the incumbent of the office by the Fifteenth Legislature, Act No. 5l, Which act ,Cas signed by C. Meyer ZuIick.
 He lied when he said he recommended to the Fifteenth Legislature the passage of an act providing for Constitutional Convention. He did recommend a memorial to Congress in the following words: 'I therefore recommend that at an early date you memorialize Congress to pass an Enabling Act, whereby the people may elect delegates to a Constitu' tional Convention, preparatory to admis' sion as a State" His position was exactly the same as Governor Wolfiey's that an Enabling Act is a prerequisite to admission.
 He tied when he said he resigned hi: office as Governor of Arizona, as the fol lowing telegrams will show:

 We ask the intelligent voters of this countyif, after such showing, they car vote for this modern Ananias. Think you that a man who will, deliberately and with malice aforethought, lie in thil manner is fit to be trusted? Think yor he would be honest as an Legislator Does it not rather indicate that he hal sunk so low in the moral scale that hC would, if elected, be constantly on sal, for the highest bidder?
 Weigh these questions we'll and con slider whether or not you can afford tc
