COCHISE COUNTY.
The Big Fight May Occar at

Two lompanirs of Militia Pas. Through Henson nEL Wili
 Guard the horder.

Dispatches from all over indicate that the big fight may take place Tn Arizona. Today is the beginning of the iate the carnival was 10 take place, and il view Of the hostilities shoxn by the authorities of Mexico aud officials ! Of Texas and New Mexico, it is said that stewart, checked in every other direction, had planned 10 put his fighters and spectators on trains at El | Paso and then instead of running out to the projected battle ground near Fl Pasc, 10 make a ra i'd three hours dash for the Arizona line This could be done in the night. In the morning at dawn the fight could commence and all would be over before the authori- ties could come on the scene in sui- fcient force 10 be effective. Bowie, SanSimon or some place in this county appears to be the ot jective point.
 An Associated press dispatch says Major Lewi-, commanding the Second Battalion, N. G. A, wires from Bowie that he has positive information that the Maher- Fitzsimmons fight will be brought off tomorrow or tonight within Arizona lines. Governor Hughes has ordered 10 eastern Arizona two com panies of militia from Tucson and one from Yuma. They will he held at Bowie or San simon Station. The comrauies at Nogsles, Phenix, Tempe and Mesa are instructed 10 prepare for active service at once. The governor telegra 2hed Msj)r Lewis to prevent at Ali hazards the passage of persons 10 engage in prize fight. He also wired the Southern Pacific company, urging them no. to become accessory 10 :e!ony by carrying fighters into Arizona.
 Tine two companies of militi. passed through Benson yesterday for Bowie aad are or the lookout. Another com pany is expected on the s. P. from Yuma today.
 The governor also i= uEderstood to have added 8 teleeraphic appeal to Washington asking that the garrisons al Grant and Huachuca be held in readiness and that force of deputy marshsls might be stationed st the Arizona border line.

According to the last issue of the Arizona Populis', says the Journal Miner, w. O. O'Neill contemplatss de,erting the populist party and join ing the democracy, in consideration of receiving the democratic nomination
 for delegate to congress, in which event the populists will not nominate q candidate. Stranger things than that can happen where the party named is concerned. Here is what the Populist has to say on the subject. and if it does not mean the above, what does it mean: Democrats of Arizona can take their choice between Murphy and O'Neill to represent them at Washington next time.

ARIZONA STATEHOOD.
What the Chronicle Says of
 Ariz,na.

From the Chro. ice.
 II the territory of Arizona is entitled 10 the honor and dignity of statehood, as everything seems 10 indicate, il is or should be beneath the consideration Of congress to allow any arguments such as are founded on equity and justice 10 enter into the discussion. The population of the territory being sufficient. its resources amply de- veloped and its people having given satisfactory evidence of their attach ment to a republican form of govern ment, there is really nothing more to be said.
 The admission of 8 territory 10 state hood is it is true left within the dis cretion Of congress, hut that is mani festly what is known as a legal discretion, not te be exercised whim- sically or without due consideration not to be made dependent on partisan politics, and not 10 be confused with any issue for the public welfare which congress may have before it. To ex. c!ude a properly equipped territory from statehood for lear its senators and one or more representatives may dis turb the status of congress is not within the purview of the constitution.
 Even more than this, it is & gross ard unpsrdonable outrage upon the people of the territory, who are citi- gems oi the United States, and who are entitled 10 come to full stature of civic manhood. Let the proposition be made, were such thing imsgin- able, to reduce a state 10 the rank of a territory and then we would see at once how much the American values his privilege of state citizenship.
 If. then. Arizoua is ready for state hood, she should be admitted at once. II she is ready that fac; should be made public and must operate as Q stay of proceedings. The other alter native that Of financial party in con gress opposing the admission might supply three votes to party which differs from it is unworthy such body as the United States congress and We do no, believe it can prevail. The contest between gold and silver is not to be determined by two senators and a representative from Arizona, and if this be .he only obstacle in the way of admission it should be brushed aside st once as not worthy of considers ton.
