The term of the Graham county District Court which closed this week was a success Out af eleven criminal cases tried, nine convic- tions were secured, seven of the de fendants going to Yuma for various terms and two receiving jail sen tences. The civil docket, not large to begin with, was pretty well clear ed. Such terms of court reflect credit on the judge, our county ot- ficials and the jurors in attendance. It will have good effectin impress ing criminals with the fact that crimes in Graham county will not be permitted to go unwhipped, When it is known that officers and iuries will neither fail or falter in their duty, men will not be so han dy with their gun. knife or brand ing iron. Graham county is fast purging itself of criminals.-Bulle tS.

McLane, who came mp from the state of Jalisco, reports one city, that of Tequilla, as having a large popuIation wholly dependent upon this industry for a livelihood. There are 12,000 acres under culti- vation and eight distilleries in ope- ration. One firm shipped 47,OOO gallons of this liquor to San Fran cisco in one shipment.

Arizona is not, properly speaking, a democratic territory any more than New York, Ohio or Iowa are democratic states. The fact that Mark Smith has been elected for the third term is due to hIs popularity and devotion to the peoples inter est while in congress. Had any other man been put on the ticket last year or two years previous, 1t is doubtful whether the democratic candidate would have been elected. No one calls Ohio a democratic state for the simple reason that the democratic candidate was elected two years ago in that state. Mark smiths majority was less than l. 200, At the general election two years previous the legislature was overwhelmingly republican. So that when q man tells you that Arizona can not get into the union because she is a democratic state, they draw upon their imagination. As far as the constitutional convention was concerned, it was composed of q large majority of democrats for the reason that they placed their strong est and most progressive men on their tickets, while the republican tickets in most of the counties was noticeably weak and unworthy of support even by republicans of ad' vanced thought.-Tombstone Pros pectOr-

Chief Justice Gooding has just decided in the case of Williams against the County of Maricopa, that district attorney of any coun- ty may appoint deputy, or the court may appoint deputy dis trict attorney in the assistance ot the district attorney and the coun- ty must pay such deputy for his services. The decision is based up on the statute of the territory au- thoIizes the district attorney to ap- point deputy, and also authorizes him to incur any necessary expense in the discharge of the duties of his office, but his honor holds that the necessity for the employment of a deputy must be shown to the satis- faction ot the board of supervisors before the services can become a county harge-Prospector.

That Compromise.

EDITOR HERALD-The people of Apache county, irrespective of sex
 or previous condition of servitude
 respectfully ask of the Board of Supervisors why they, at their last regular meeting, took upon them selves the unwarranted authority of overriding the plain letter of the statutes, by compromising the pay ment of certain taxes due the coun- ty? At the aforesaid session, and notwithstanding one or more cash offers of fifteen hundred dollars had
 been rendered them for the real property of Frank A. Hubbell, a mortgage on which had been pre- viously foreclosed, they decided to ignore these offers in cash, and i'll direct violation of the law and Of their oaths of office, compromised payment of taxes due to the cnun- ty; and i'll connection herewith, caused an "order" to be entered on their minutes setting aside a de- cree of the District Court, thus vir- tuaIly saying: We are the high you-muck a mucks of this neck of the woods, the District Court to the contrary, notwithstanding" It will be remembered that at the last term of court held here by the Hon. H c. GoOding, a decree of foreclosure against the real estate Of one Frank A. Hubbell, and in favor of Apache county, was duly entered of record in which the judgment amounted to over four thousand dollars, Now, what does our distinguished and supremely intellectual and immac- ulate Board of Supervisors do with the courts decree in this case? Nothing more nor less than to sim ply ignore the Gin their opinion puerile decree) said judgment as also the aforesaid cash offers, and in lieu thereof, give q clear receipt covering over fOnr thousand dollars, for the insignificant sum of thirteen hundred dollars in promises, for il is reported this amount has not yet been paid, beside unlawfully com promising certain taxes in the in terest of thls same MT. Promises. However, the average citizen of this county cannot, nor does he pretend even for a moment, tO rival the mental acumen and wondrOus brain power of the Board; nor does he presume to equal them in their pro found knowledge of statecraft; nevertheless, as a citizen and an or dinary tax-paying chump, with mental vision somewhat obtuse, he cannot see how such acts, as those complained of, can in anywise ben eft the county. Had the honorable Board accepted either of the afore- mentioned cash offers, the county would have at once covered into it's treasury the sum of fifteen hun dred dollars, and the judgment still remain against the unSatistied bal ance; by doing this, thelr acts in the premises would have been Tn touch with the law, and themselves have acted an honorable part in the matter. It may be, however, and many of our people firmly believe. that the Supervisors did not care to conserve the interests of the coun- ty, and if not. then what? CIT.
