F. W. Hamm, deputy county treasurer who has head for sta tistics, has figured out the legisla- tive apportionment of the fourteen counties under the constitution framed, and uses his figures to show how the majority discriminated against doubtful and solid Repub- lican counties in favor of the solid Democratic counties.

Died In Ills Sleep.

Wednesday morning MT. E. c. Peck was found dead in his bed. Judge J.J. Chatham held coroner's inquest, and the verdict of the jury was that the deceased had died from natural causes.
 Deceased was one of the pioneers of Arizona, having come to the territory forty years ago or more In General Crooks campaign against the hostile Apaches he served with credit as a government scout. In the early '705 he discov. cred the famous Peck mine, in Yavapai county, from which he realized handsome fortune, which was frittered away however in later and unsuccessful mining ventures.
 MT. Peck was in his seventy seventh year, and was remarkably we'll preserved and vigorous for one of his age. Tuesday evening he retired in his usual good health and spirits. He is quoted as hay ing remarked in the course of the day that he was nearly seventy seven years old, had never had an ache or pain, was strong and vigorous, and expected to live to be one hundred. Yet that very night the spring ran down, the wheels stopped, and the machine became lifeless.

The Apportionment.

The constitutional convention has ignored every rule of right and reason and every precedent, in it's apportionment of representatives in the legislature, and the names of the delegates who voted for that unjust and unfair apportionment should be printed in large type and the list preserved for reference when the time comes for the selec- ton of state officials. We print herewith table showing the ap- portionment and the unequal dis tribution of representation accord ing to population:

 The ratio of population to each representative in the fourteen counties in Arizona, is as follows, according to Mir. Hamm's table based on the last census: (It will be noted that solid Democratic counties are grouped at the top; the doubtful in the center) Mohave, one to 1887; Yuma, one to 2877; Yavapai, one to 2666; Graham, one to 2850; Gila, one to 1856; Santa Cruz, one to 33S8; Cochise, one to 1882; Coconino, one to 4065; Mari copa, one to 4311; Pinal, one to 4522; Pima, one to 4653; Apache, one to 4598; Greenlee, one to 1899; Navajo, one to 5745.
