"A
 respondence. A copy Of your mormn
 contemporary, dated February 9th, hs
 just been shown me, in which the stat,
 mens Is made editorially that "wolfle
 organs lied in saying that Presiden
 Hughes sat down on Zulick," in tn
 appointment Of the committee to invss
 ngate territorial institutions. Jus
 what particular papers, or how man,
 of them, come within the above cate
 gory, your correspondent does no
 know, (perhsps the JoURSAL-MIsEr
 aoes)' Whether the statement had any
 difect or remote connection with as
 sefsions made by your correspondent,
 oo not know, but this do know. as
 does every one in Phenix, that Zulick's
 original schemes in regard to this com.
 mittee miscarried. as neither himself
 nor he lieutenant. Fansh, was given . place on 1t, and think I announced tne fact previous to the appointment oi the committee that neither one would be on this committee. as Presi- dent Hughes had been given '.tip" rom the caucus in regard to these ap- continents. It was perhaps jus; as easy way as any to let him down by explaining that he mad requested not to be placed sson the committee. Zulick requesting not to he placed on this committee is on par with the rush of patriots just prior to political conven. eons, getting announcements into print declining nominations of which no one ever thought of rendering them. Zulick Is a thoughtful man, and very discerning man. He saw long before the appointment of that commit Zee the particular direction that the "feline was going to jump" and far be 1t from me to deny that he made the request as intimated.
 Mir. Freeze has got his doctor binv through the house. It provides that every praciicins physician shall hold . diploma from some medical college.
 Council joint resolution, known AS the A resolution, which was intended to provide a messenger, at an expense of H per day, for the governor has been up again before that august body, and the amount of oratory expended on it was something really remarkable. To listen to some of the talks made on this resolution one would think that | thousands of dollars were involved, and l EhAt its passage meant bankruptcy to | Ihe territory. On motion of Herndon. It was finally indefinitely postponed, and councilmen who spoke SO feelingly 'n 1t, on the plea of economy, can now 'eturn to an admirlng constituency with consciousness of having helped Q save the territory about $50.
 It begins to look now as if Coconino county had struck snag in the house. \ protest as long as the old Mineral Belt railroad has been sent down 'gainst the appointment of certain as- 'irsnts to office. Some of the adyo. stes of the bill even go so far as to say hat if they cannot have the county Flthout certain ones being appointed o office they prefer remaining where hey are--iu Yayapai county. Con rsry to all expectations, too, the bill 'as sent to the judiciary committee in- tead of the committee ou counties and ounty boundaries, in the house. This looked upoa as significant, particu- ariy as Speaser Clark's county is threatened also with division. While he entire Cochise delegation is op- osed to the proposed new county of ailes, and while the proposition has sw adherents in the legislature there is feeling of unsafety in regard to open. ng up the way for county division trough she creation of Coconino. and | | here are members here who would | ,rm combination against any county ivision in order to prevent the division [ Cochise. It does not look now, how. yer, as if they would succeed, and 'hile the Coconino bill may .eceive Ackset for while, there is little doubt | !, ut thatit will eventually pass. MAX. |.
