The Tucson Star, the leading demo- cratic paper of the territory. has the fol- lowing very sensible criticism ct tbe unjust manner in which the Florence
 Enterprise assails Governor Welfey
 The Enterprise publishes a long com munication from ex-Governor Salfsrd; written from Florida, which criticises Governor Wolhey's methods of admins. tering the affairs of Arizona, and editor ially the Enterprise commeeds the gov erner and the sentiments expressed in his communication. In the same issue it publishes a portion of an interview had with Governor Wolfey in Chicago, on bis way to Washington. and dubs the Governor "Our Political Moses" The Enterprise don't appear to harmonize with Governor wolaey. but is at perfect peace with ex-Governor Stafford, whs has assumed the role of Arizona's politi- cal Moses coming ou, of the bulrushes ot Florida. Governor Wolfey appears 10 be doing the best he knows how, and ought to be encouraged by his party md by his party papers at least.

SECRETARY WINDOWS suoces-
 TON.


 The following is synoasis of Secretary Wndoms suggestion in regard to silver :
 Issue treasury notes against . de poslt of silver bullion at the market price of silver dollars when deposited. payable on demand in such quantities of silver bullion as will equal in value at the date of presentation the number of dollars expressed on the face of the notes al the market value of silver. or it in gold, at the option of the the gov ernment. or in silver dollars, at the .ep- don of the holder, and a repeal ot the compulsory features of the present coinage act"
 He continues The proposition is briefly this: To open the mints ef the United States to . free deposit Of sil- yer, the market price of the same not to exceed Si for 4fs.s grains of stand ard silver at the tune of deposit, to be paid in treasury notes. said outes to. be redeemedable in the quantity of silver which could be purchased by the nun Der of dollars expressed on the full face of the notes at the time that they may be presented in payment or the, gold at the option of the government. and to be receivable for customs, taxes and all public dues, and when so received they may be reissued and such notes when held by any national banking asso- ciaiton shall be counted as . part of tts awful reserve.
 The secretary of the treasury should have discretionary power to suspen d temporarily the receipts of silver bul. lion for payment ID notes. when neces- sory to project the government against combinations formed for the purpose of giving arbitrary ard fictictious psice to silver. If the price of silver should advance between the dates ot issue of the notes and its payment, the holder of the notes should receive less quantity of silver than deposited. The advan- tage of retainining the option to redeem in gold is threefold. First, it would give an additional credit to the notes; second. It would prevent the with drawal and redeposit of silver fer spec ulative purposes third. it would afford convenient method of making change when.the weight of silver bars does not correspond with the amount of the notes
 Among the advantages which the sec retary claims for the measure are that it would bring into use all the money metal of the country. It would give paper currency standing not subject to an undue or arbitrary imitation or con- traction. It would enhance the value of silver and open the way to its free coinage. Gold would be relieved of part of the work required of it. h would meet the wants of those desiring arger volume of circulation. and 1t would be advantageous to silver produ cers. The secretary gives many facts md figures tending to support the posi- ion taken by him.

RAILROAD TAXES.

The Judiciary Committee of the Assembly
met in the Supreme Court-rooms at San Fran,
cisco, Saturday morning, pursuant to a resolu,
ton introduced by Assemblyman Dibble TO in
yestlgate the charge made by State Controller
] unn, that the records in the railroad taA suits
mad been tempered with and falsifed. Hon
Creed Raymond, solicitor for The Southern Pa
eific Company, appeared in behalf of that com
paliy, and Controller Dunn as for the State.
Pending the arrival of the Circuit Court re-
cords, which were to be examined, Mr. Hay
mond made a statement in regard to the posi-
ton of the railroad company in the investiga
ton. He said that he was not present as an in
terested party, as the railroad company had nc
interest in the matter now. He thought thai
the legislature should know the true facts in
regard TO the suits, and it was the desire of the
railroad people to afford the committee every
facility for securing information.
=" II permitted" said Mr.. Raymond 81 will
show by Indisputable evidence that the railroad
companies have paid more money for taxes in
proportion to the yalCe OF the property than any
citizen in the etate and a sum largely in excess
OF what could have been collected by legal
levy. We will show that since the adoption O,
the new Constitution the railroad companies
nave paid into The treasury of the State and Of
order to do so had to take legal steps to compel
the State officials to accept the money"
Mr. Raymond, continuing. said that he hoped
that the comm tee would go into the matter
ture would end it forever During the discus
sion Mr.. Raymond said he would agree to take
up q case which should cover all points in liti
CATION, and he would waive all pleadings con
stitutional points and teehnicalities, and let the
Court decide whether the road owed any taxes
or not
Addressing Mr. Storke, of the committee, Mr.
Raymond said he was willing that Storke should
change the stipulation in the cases before the
Supreme Court as he pleased and the speaker
would be willing to try them on thirty six
hours notice. He was also willing TO assist in
the preparation of bill which would collect
taxes from railroad companies In reply to Q
question by Controller Dunn, Mr.. Raymond
promised to stipulate that one of the tax cases
now pending should be submitted to the State
Supreme Court to determine whether the pres
en-. system of assessment is in violation OF the
fourteenth amendment of the Constitution oil
the United States.
The question as TO Justification of the record
was gone into somewhat at length, but without
anything of importance having been developed
in the matter, the committee adjourned to meet
in this city to-day.

members of the committee left all the arrange

turn lett everything to the clerk, who
pro -eeded to contract bills ct a rate that
made the member from Tehama's hair
stand on end. Among other astounding
bills presented by their thrifty clerk was the
one for Sl5l for sinyitations which has already
been aired" This amount was subsequently
cut down one-third by the Assembly, upon rec
ommendation of the Committee on Public Print
ing, ana even then Assem- blyman Holmes felt
constrained to rise and remark that the joint
committee clerk was evidently making good
SIZED commission in the matter. The invita-
tons themselves came in for good deal OF
severe criticism. They were gotten up on cheap
paper, the names of the members of the COM
mlttee were put in small type in the corner,
while the unpronounceable name OF their clerk
was put in large letters in a line by itself IN the
center of the card Besides, the pames of Com
mitteemen Ostrom aud Mathews were spelled
incorrectly and, GROWING woe of all, there
were not enough invitations to 60 around
