A MINISTER once told Wendell Phil lips that if his business in life was to save the negroes he ought to go South where they were and do it. " That is worth thinking of," said Phillips; "and what is your business in life ?" "To save men from hell, !" replied the minister. "Then go there and attend to your business" replied Phillips.

MOB LAW.

Whatever construction has been, or may fairly be placed upon the utter ances of this paper with regard to the ineficiency of juries, or the efforts oi the people to defeat the good work courts and iuries now and then do to ronress murder and the lesser crimes,
 we are opposed to mob law; hence our criticisms of juries, courts and peo- nle wherein their acts tend to incite mob law. To say that murder upon murder committed from time to time in Arizona for ten years, has never been legally punished, Is to state a fact; and to further add that such non- enforcement of statute law tends to excite mob law, is another fact, and not favorable expressions of mob law. If one man kill another and be justified or acquitted because he was drunk or on plea of insanity which would have been regarded as slauder upon the murderer before the act; or from some fancied or even ordinary insult; it is high time to sound the alarm that no mans life is safe. Let murder go unpunished much longer upon these fimsy excuses, and thousands of men will purposely get drunk, or feign insanity, or ex- aggerate provocations or pretended ones, just to kill good men who might have properly incurred their mere dis pleasure.
 We again repeat that the laws of Arizona are ample to enable officers and legal tribunals to sufficiently punish all crimes including the terri ble one of murder; but will any one show wherein the law for murder has been legally enforced in Arizona dur ing its entire corporate existence !? Does not the law authorize and require district attorneys, juries and courts to promptly punish criminals, instead of seeking legal bubbles to give them their liberty and legal sanction of their bad deeds
 Again we say, let us have the crim- inal laws enforced in their spirit to the end that mob law may not ensue, as it inevitably does the world over when the people realize the insecurity of their lives and property under statute law. While we deprecate mob law as a terrible evil, yet we have lived to know how imprudent it is to actively oppose an outraged populace who find no other mode of self-defense than their own acts outside of legal forms. We plead for the enforcement of stat ute not mob law.

REMEMBERING THE WoRTHY.-Wc
notice by the Harrisburg Patriot that
tho California legislature has lately
been considering the propriety Of
erecting a suitable monument to the
memory of the late ex Governor John
Bigler, whose carly apprenticeship as
a printer was served in Harrisburg
In referring TO the movement tho
Sacramento Reporter says il is meas
ure of eminent propriety and justice.
We trust that no opposition to its
passage will be manifested in either
branch of tho legislature. John Big
lcr's life was active, and his public
career long and useful. He bad polit-
ical foes, but few, If any, personal
enemies. Ho was twice governor Of
our State, a pioneer, and an honest
man These are sufficient considera.
tons to insure tho passage of the bill.
John Biglcr not only served the State
but he loved it. Besides, the proposed
measure is strictly in accordance with
custom. The State delights to show
respect for tho memory of its distin-
guished dead. Here, surely, was one
whose memory should bo kept green.
"Thcn lend stout aud willing hand,
And let the stately structure tower
With It's proportions fair and grand

FIFTH DIsrRIcr The special cleo
ton for Senator in this district, on
the 10Th, has resulted in the election
Of Waddell, the Cameron candidate,
by about 700 majority. Tho Radical
majority was 4,l0l at the election in
October last. Chester gave 3,255.
1t now gives | 400 to the nominee Of
its choice. The October majority in
Delaware was l,G07. 1t has now fall
len to 500; while Montgomery in
crcases its Democratic majority from
76i TO 1900. If the GRANTEES like
these figures, surely the Democrats
and liberal Republicans have no cause
for complaint.

The NEW DIsTRior Another Con.
grcssional Aapportionment bill has
been introduced into the Legislature.
In this one Clearfeld is put into the
10Th district, to which the counties of
Centre, Blair, Huntingdon and Elk
are added. We have no special choice
in this matter, but would prefer this
last arrangement to the first, (Clcar-
field, Clinton, Centre, Elk and Milf
hin,) because it gives us moro popula-
lion, and the privilege of infusing the
right kind Of politics into The benight-
Cd counties of Blair and Huntingdon.
Besides, in Mr.. Speer We have II
Democratic member Of Congress to
start with for one year in exchange
for that Radical corruptionist, Scofeld,
who is at the head of the ring which
is plundering and eost.li"s tho Navy.
He has, the past six years, stolen
enough out of the United States
Treasury to buy of overy rival that
came in his way, and it looks now as
though he would do the same this
fall. Such is the Radical material in
the Erie district. The rivals buy and
sell each other, like merchandise.
