Bonded Indebtedness.
Stafford Guardian.)

AodIIOTu
In its issue of July 10th, the Arizona
Republican makes lengthy comment
on the editorial published in last
weeks Guardian, under the title of
"County Division which brings out
all the points made by The Guardian
in seeking a reason for Governor
Sloan's act in calling for an election
of officers in Greenlee county.
In winding up its article the Re
publican states:
son the whole, however, there may
be some business for the lawyers be-
for it is determined whether the
organization of Greenlee county is
interfered with by the statehood
enabling act.
''Neither The Graham Guardian nor
any other paper in Graham county,
so far as we are aware, has referred
to a question connected with the
division of that county which seems to
us far more important than any that
have been suggested. We refer to
the question of the county indebted
ness. The law creating the new
county provides that it shall assume
its due proportion of the illegal
bonded indebtedness of Graham
county,. Now it so happens that
Graham county has no illegal bonded
Indebtedness" exclusive of school dis
trict boads, although the county Is
indebteded to the Territory in the
sum of S146. 900; the Territory having
taken up the bonds of the county
in that amount, charged the
county therefor on the books of the
Territorial treasurer, and issued its
own bonds in payment of the indebt
edness, Time and again the act in its
reference to the adjustment of OBJ
legations between the two counties
describes the debt as the "legal
bonded indebtedness" of Graham
county. How Greenlee county can
be made to assume any portion of the
debt OF S145,O)O owed to the Territory
by Graham county is question that
undoubtedly will have to be settled in
the courts"
In answer to the above it may be
stated that the "legal bonded indebt-
edness" of Graham county, amount
ing to Sl46,000, is provided for in the
act of the legislature creating the
new county of Greenlee, by stating
that G:eenlee county will assume all
the bonded Indebtedness of Graham
county. In other words Greenlee
county will pay the "bonded indebted
ness" of Graham county to the time
the county is divided.
The people of Graham county will
certainly pay all its Indebtedness,
and this refers to the people of the
east end of the county as well as to
those in the western part of the
county.
We hardly think that the people of
Greenlee county will seek to avoid
the payment of this Indebtedness, or
that it will be necessary to resort to
the courts for settlement.
The act of the legislature creating
the new county is very plain in this
particular matter and specifies the
manner of payment of the legal
bonded Indebtedness when county
division has become a reality.
We do not fear but that the people
of Graham county will clear up all its
Indebtedness when the time arrives
