CORRESPONDENCE.
 Solomonville, Ariz., July 7.-On the train Saturda! Imet Bert Dunlap, who came to Cochise station from Bis bee where he had been joining in the big celebration. He went to Bisbee with Governor Brodie from Phoenix.
 Mr Dunlap is an appointee of Cover nor Murphy. holding the position of chairman of the territorial live stock sanitary board, sometimes called the bull tick" If MT. Dunlap is pos sessed of any innformation concerning the intention of Governor Brodie in the matter of territorial officials he
 refuses to disclose it. Dunlap is pi' oneer cattle man, and has attended his duties we believe to the satisfaction of
 all save his political enemies, but it
 may be stated with certainty that he has received no intimation from the new governor as to his chances for re- appointment His resignation has been
 handed in.
 There is considerable speculative talk among politicians as to what will be the status of Ben Daniels. of No gales, in the Brodie administration. Mir. Daniels, it will be remembered.
 was appointed to the position of United States marshal of Arizona and was twice confirmed by the senate, but lost the office by determined ef- fort of opponents in the senate, who secured facts concerning MT. Daniels early life of such a nature as to cause President Roosevelt to withdraw the appointment It is known that Daniels is now an applicant for the position of superintendent of the territorial prison. which pays the handsome sal ary of three thousand dollars a year. Mir. Daniels visited Governor Brodie at his Crown Point home only short time before the Brodies left for Phoe- nix. MT. Daniels was in Bisbee. during the visit of Governor Brodie, accom- panied by his friend Cohn, of Nogales. I have it on good authority that Dan- iels was offered the position of assist ant superintendent of the prison and refused to accept. This would cause the belief that MT. Daniels would either have first place at Yuma or ..
 Ex-Marshal Grifith is an applicant for the prison superintendent's job. Griffith held the marsha;s office for four years. one of the most lucrative positions in the territory. He has been a member of the national republican for two terms and there is a feeling among a good many Repub lcans that "Grif' ought to be satis- fled to allow other Republicans to have 3 place at the pie counter and not ask for the best position to be given out by Govednor Brodie. Grifith is wealthy and the salary attached to the office now sought is not of any financial consequence to him, neither Is it a position to add to his honors.
 Positions on the territorial board of are very attractive. There 1 is no salary, only per diem and mile age. But members of this board al ways receive annual passes on all the !, -s,,r,,s ads in the territory. The duties # this boaro are to equalize the as- ,essment of ali property in the terri ,ory mad also to assess the property ,f railroads, telegraph lines, Pullman md other sleeping cars, etc.
 It is not likely that Governor Brodie will make clean sweep or the territorial officials; there will be many changes of course. but who will go and who will stay is yet un- known pernaps even to the Governor himself. Everywhere the people seem to have the utmost confidence in the new Governor and are not worrying over what he is going to do in the mat ter of appointments.
 From all parts of southern Arizona the most discourasing reports are com ing in concerning the cattle ranges. In the Sulphur Spring valley many cattle will die unless bountiful rains
 should soon come; in the vicinity of
 Fort Grant cattle are very thin. though
 put few have died. Many cattle are
