AN OUTRAGEOUS ATTACK.


 Without exception republicans and democrats of Yavapai county are indie- nsnt at the false and malicious attack made by ,be PheRix Republican of the ,,d instant. in which that journal charges General ". O. O'Neill and the Catho lies generally of Prescott with being re- sponslbls for the defeat of Frank Mur- phy as candidate for the constitutional convention ,::when the Republican stated that General O'Neill either openly or secretly worked to secure Mir, Murphy or any other republicans defeat at that election, it stated what was false and un- true. When it stated that our fellow citizens of the Catholic faith made any effort as a body to defeat Mir. Murphy, or any other republican, it indignantly and slande,ously lied Whoever the Re publican's informant was. whatever its source ot otinformation, the charges 1t made against Mir. 0'Neill are without founda- tioa and are made to merely force into the republican party of Yavapai county the same factional strife that that paper has bred in Maricops, in Plnal. in in Pima. in every portion ot the territory where its principles of blackmall and in- inhalation find circulation. From the days of its first issue the Republican ha' been a cancerous growth on the republi- can party of Arizona It has been pros' tituted to advance and benefit only faction-and that faction one of tht most foul and corrupt in Arizona poll. tics It has striven to drive the bes men of the party from the republi cal organization and has done more to dis. 1 rupt the republican party of Arizona thar has any other cause. It is sull striving to do so, and its fight on Gen. O'Neill on Mir. R. C. Brown of the Enterprise men who were workers in the republican party before its columns saw the light of day, IS aimed simply and solely a Governor Irwin, who manfully refuses | to prostitute his position and influence | keep in force the system of osioia blackmail that has m the past kept thu Republican alive. To the Republican and the men behind it, we say.!attend | your own business until the many credl- tors you owe shall close your career Your interference with falsehood an' mendacious lieing. in the affairs of Plna | in the affairs of Pima, in the affairs Yayapai, in the affairs of any count
 outside of the one that has the misfort

 demand that you prove the charge 70
 have made against General O'Neili an
 the Catholic republicans of Yavapa county, or else retract the same To d . wouln be only honorable aud manly, fail to do so will be to admit yourselve l as malicious and lying slanderers.

Railroad Tax EouaIIxation.

Below we publish a copy of peii- ton now being signed by the principal taxpayers and citizens of Mohave county requesting the territorial board of equalization to assess the Atlantic X Pacific railroad at such a reasonable sum as the corporation will be willing to pay and as will be just and fair. The county assessor, supervisors, district at torney and other officials, says the Miner charged with the collection Of county's revenue all agree that a straight assess ment of $s.ooo e mile is as high in pro- portion as any other class or kind of property is assessed in Mohave county. Othe. classes of property may, and doubtless do to some some extent, es- cape assessment. The heavy cattle owner does not not know the exact number of bis cattle and his sensitive conscience as we'll as bis native modesty will never allow him to overestimate his possessions to the mild mannered assess or. The man of money frequently finds it convenient to keep bis bank account
 outside of the county's jurisdiction in the spring of the year, and the honest, patrl- otic merchant sometime lets hts stock get little low between the first Monday in March to the first Monday in Jur e but the one hundred and fourteen (II+ and s7s-Iooo miles of main track of said railway is always there. Besides Il ;,m ,o be borne in mind that there IS, as vet. very little business for the road m Mohave county.
 To the Honorable, the Territorial Board
 of equalization. Of the territory ot
 Arizona, Phenis, Arizona.
 Your petitioners, county officials, and other citizens and taxpayers of Mohave county, would respectfully represent 10
 your honorable board: That, where's . difference of opinion exist as to the legal right of the territory 10 tax the At lantic x Pacific railroad, aud whereas, notwithstanding such difference, the cor- porotion has indicated its willingness to pay taxes upon fair and just valuation of its road, not to exceed five thousand ($s, ,oco) dollars per mile and thus avoid tedious and expensive litigation. And, whereas, your petitioners are advised, and believe that such valuation would be reasonable, and as high in proportion as any other class of property is assessed in the territory. and believing that the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad company would promptly pay the taxes upon such jus, and reasonable assessment, and fully believing that such fair valuation would meet with hearty approval ot all the of- scials and citizens of northern Arizona.
 We therefore. for the reasons herein indicated. and for other obvious rearons respectfully but most earnestly pray your honorable board to assess the said Atlantic & Pacific iailrUsd at rate not exceeding i've thousand dollars per mile.

MECHANICS INSTITUTE.
The Recent Fair Melted Over Eighte
Tnarcand nnI,rs

The Recent Fair Melted Over Eighteen
Thousand Dollars.
The Mechanics Institute Trustees met
last evening and listened TO reports from
their several committees concerning the
late exposition and other institute busin ess.
A statement from the Treasurer showed
that the total receipts of the fair amounted
to $47,946 IS, derived from the following
sources: Sale Of tickets, Sal, 172 6S privi-
leges, S583S so; gas and labor, 1928 10;
catalogues, SI2 80; donations. 5000. The ex-
penseS are estimated at $780, 900, leaving a
net gain of $l8.9I6 5S.
The report IF the Librarian was that the
receipts of the library for Septem Der had
been $27S9 10 During this period So appli-
cations for membership have been favor
ably considered, and accessons to the
library numbered 319 volumes; TO- 17S vol
umes were given out during September, the
largest circulation having been on the 18th
ult., when the number OF books loaned
numbered 705
The Committee on Privileges reported re-
ceipts as given above, but recommended that
the system OF charging exhibitors 81 80 each
for employees tickets be continued The
members of the committee believe that
when exhibitors become accustomed to this
plan there will be less trouble than
heretofore. The committee further recon-
mended the continuance of the rule that ex-
hibitors must provide themselves with
double season tickets OF the equivalent.
The Committee on Awards was ordered to
pay all cash prizes and take steps to procure
medals. On Recommendation of this CON-
mittee the following. having pictures on ex-
hibition not included in the general display,
were awarded cash prizes: j. d. Larpeu-
teur, Miss Emma Quirk, Il. Alexander and
Miss ii. +. Bulson.
A communication was read from the Old
Peoples Home, thanking the board for
passes rendered the inmates of this institu-
ton during the exhibition. The use of the

clothier demanded the large bill, but the
owner protested violently, declaring that it
was counterfeit. In spite of this it was
impounded, S12 taken out for the damage
and S8S returned to the owner, who reeled
off. On taking the bill to the bank the as

drunkard had told the truth, that it was
worthless, and that he was out just S8S ard
