last Thursday, week ago, after
lingering illness. The deceased was SO
years of age and an early pioneer OF
Arizona, coming to Tucson in 1861, and

The Prescott Courier continues to ask
for division OF Arizona. The terri /
tory now has just enough population to
get into the union and division would |
condemn it to eternal territorial govern
