American Reverence for Law.

President Harrison's address con-
tains passages which we welcome as
full of sound sense and political sagac-
itv. The portions of the address to
which we wish more particularly to re-
fer are those in which the president lays
down very excellent doctrine concern
ing the duty of the state to enforce the
law equally on all classes of citizens.
The reason why the Americans rever-
ence law and enforce it without scruple
is because the law represents the ma
tured conviction of the whole commu-
nifty as TO what is right. But when, as
in the case of slavery, the laws of the
state conhicted with right and justice,
then the very life and salvation of the
American republic was found in strug-
gle against the law. The higher law is
the only real law binding upon the
consciences of men. If the law written
in law-books corresponds with the
higher law, which is the law of God, by
that law nation lives. But if, as con-
stantly happens, the progress OF events
renders the written law an anachronism
and an injustice, then, unless nation
can readiust its written laws to the
higher law, that nation dies. The work
of readjustment is the history of civ
ilizationl When it is retarded, when
the written law has become petriied,
or when the natural forces which should
transform it are artificially paralyzed,
then there is decay and disease, showing
itself in deep hatred of law as such,
and eliminating sooner or later in pas
sionate outbursts of despair, of crime
or of revolution. Wherever there is
nation where law is unpopular, there is
a nation whose political constitution is
rotten to the core. For law should be the
highest expression of the national will
the most sacred embodiment of the con-
viction of the people. When it is not
that, but is merely foreign, arbitrary
and unnatural legalization of injustice,
then against that so-called CLAW" we
are bound to rebel to the uttermost by
our fealty to the higher law. What is
the American republic itself? 1t is the
result of revolt against law, due in
reality to the extent to which the prin-
ciples of English law had saturated the
mind of our American colonists. Speak
ing of one of the battle-felds on which
the Americans won their independence,
Lowell sang, quite truly:
" Here English law and English thought
Against the might of England fought
And it's the same phenomenon which
we are witnessing in Ireland to-day

THE great iron bolt structure known as the Eiffel tower, 9S4 feet high, and from which so much was promised, in a scientific point of view, is pronounced a failure in that direction. The murkey, poison laden atmosphere of Paris coun- teracts any advantage gained by heighth, and the solidity required for astronomi- cal observations are wanting in the tow CT. The natural oscillations of so tall a structure and the constant iarring of the earth by the never ceasing tread of a great city are defects that cannot be overcome, and which in the judgment of American scientists will largely lessen its value for astromical purposes.

4 Washington Associated Press dis patch states that the opinion of the United States supreme court in the case of the United States vs. John D. Hall has been made the subject of earn est discussion among the officers of the general land office. One of the DO nts at issue was that Hall had made oath before a notary public. The Supreme court decided that where an oath is re- quired by the United States statute the oath can be administered only by an of ficer of the United States. Hence no- tary public being a state officer cannot administer an oath to United States official except where the statute spe- cially states that oath may be made be- fore such state official. This opinion, it is believed, seriously affects the status of more than a hundred thousand cases in the mineral division of the general land office. Deputy mineral surveyors have for many years, 1t Is said, sworn to the corrteeness of their statements be- fore notaries public. During the last four years large number of cases un der the general land laws have been re- ceived for patent at the general land of flee, where final proof was not made be- fore the officer designated by law for that purpose. Where no error was found they have been allowed to go pat ented. This was first adopted by Sec retary Villas. The opinion of the Su preme court has created alarm, and request for an interpretation of section 2335, revised statutes has been sent to Assistant Attorney General Shields, with particular reference to the Su- preme court decision, and its effect upon the pending cases in the general land office.

CHICKENS COMING HOME TO
 R00ST

THE Phenix Gazatte of the 2 inst, has heavy editorial the result of which is to most conclusingly prove that Cover nors Wolfiey's Board of Equalization Is absolutely the only one to act. It says:
 It is idle for us to assert that only one is legal and inasmuch as the courts have decided that the fifteenth legislature ad- iourned by operation of law March 21, it is only fair to say that the appointees of MT. Wolfley are void" Did the Gazatte forget or did it intend to misrepresent. It is considered just as much misrepre- sentation to tell only part of the truth, as it is to directly misrepresent.
 The court also said ''There being no adverse action (of Congress- the Revised code as an entirety is the law of the land. "
 Again, Did the Gazatte forget that Congress meets (unless there is an extra session and it is positively said there will bel the first Monday of December and that the taxes do not become delin- quent until the end of December? Did it forget that the same court had de- cided that by that time the fifteenth legi- lature will be just as much ''the law of the land" as the Revised Code? Does itexpect by that time that powerful R.R. corporations will take hand to sustain the courts decision? Is it possible that the Gazatte is working in ths interest of the rail roads? We will have to watch you John"

THE Democratic are bad off for some thing to howl about when they make such an uproar over Commissioner of Immigration Black because forsooth, he had his name printed as commissioner on some pamphlets previously issued by Mir. Parish when he held this same office. These pamphlets were not the personal property of Mr. Parish: they belonged to the territory, and his successor was en- titled to their use If on going into office he found these pamphlets at his disposal it would have been gross waste of the peoples money to permit them to lie un- used. He therefore without claiming the authorship, substituted his name as commissioner for that of MT. Parish. This is the whole sum and substance in a nut she'll The pamphlets in ques- tion were in the CITIZEN office, and Mir. Black as Commissioner, made legal de- mand for them. He had got, however, taken them away, and. subsequently de- cided not to use them, but to issue pamphlet of superior merit upon which he is now at work.

THE Election of school trustees promis es to be quite interesting. There will be no lack of candidates for the honor of re- presenting this school district, but none should be elected unless they possessed the necessary qualification for the place which is purely one of educational man. agement. MT. Samuel Hughes whose name has been mentioned declines posi- lively to come before the people. He has yet year to serve in case be choses to continue in office, but he is tired of it and proposes to give some new man a trial by resigning. Since the inauguration of the public schools in Tucson, Mr. Hughes has served four terms as trustee His first term dates with the opening of the schools when himself and Hon. w. c. Davis did much to place them on a substantial and progressive footing. "In those days" said MT. Hughes, ''we had much to contend with but We kept right on and to-day we can see the result of our labor" The schools are in a flour ishing condition and it behooves our people to watch and see them we'll and wisely governed. The new trustees should be selected by a committee of citizens, irrespective of politics and then they should work for their election. This would ensure these important of ficers being well filled for two years at least.

CHIeAoo's disgrace is the maltreat- ment of her helpless insane. That such a pitible condition could exist as demon strated did exist by the recent invest igation. so long unknown, is indeed marvellous. Women maltreated, men stamped to death, one thousand suffer CTS crowded into a building that six hundred more than filled, fed for an en- tire year CD pigs heads, and 80 few veg etables were allowed them, that they be- came afflicted with scurvey and covered with vermin, are few of the facts that have characterized the management of this infamous and unfortunate institu- tion. Witz was hung for the maltreat ment of his charges at Andersonville; the same heroic measures should be applied to the fiends whose brutal natures made Chicago's disgrace possible.

WEEKLY CITIZEN.
WE AWAIT THANKS.

AS public servant we believe 1t IS our right and our duty to criticise, in respectful manner, even the decisions of the courts. and if we honestly and cor rectly criticise, the judges will, if they are honest, thank us for so doing.
 In the case of Smith vs. Foster, in speaking of the Fifteenth Legislature, the Judge says: Any law passed by the Legislature after the expiration ot sixty days are null, unless Congress act upon them and make them vahd." Yet, ln speaking of past Legislatures, he says: "One session of Congress has passed since such submission, and there being no adverse action, the Review Code as an entirety is the law of the land"
 The opinion shows and the facts are that with the exception that Congress has held one session without action) most of our Review Code and other laws of our Territory are in the exact condi- ton with the laws passed by the Eff teenth Legislature, after the sixty days expired.
 If the First, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thir teeth and Fourteenth Legislatures ceased to be Legislatures at the end of the sixty consecutive days, then the Acts of Congress quoted have no bear ing, for they refer to acts of legal Legis- latures, and not to an unauthorized body of men, and it would be immaterial whether one or dozen sessions of Con gress had intervened.
 Certainly the same rule that the court now applies to the fifteenth legislature must, to each of the others in their day have applied. In other words, what was absolutely null" sprung by its own volition into validity and became ''the law of the land," We cannot think that our laws are made that way. If the acts of congress be quoted to support "the Coder and acts of the past legislatures, then by so doing unqualifiedly admits that they continue to be legislatures
 If they continued to be legislatures, then the acts of the 15 legislature are Jaws until aunulleds by congress. We modestly await thanks of the court.

PIMA COUNTY ASSESS
 MENT.
Will be Completed June elst.--Trouble in Getting Correct Description of Property.

Assessor M. S. Snyder is very busy this week arranging his assessment work and getting the lists in order to com mence work, making the tax roll for 1889. There are great many who have not yet sent in their assessment lists and this fact entails extra work on MT. Shy der. The law makes it the duty of the assessor to furnish every property owner with an assessment blank. but there seems to be no power to compel a person to list his property. It is to the interest of every man who owns property to have it properly described on the assessment roll, especially real estate, as erroneous descriptions on the assessment roll is liable to lead to vexatious discrepan- cies.
 Mir. Snyder has been steadily at work for many weeks on the present years
 assessment and has done large amount of extra work for the convenience of property holders, that they might, with but little trouble, furnish their property
 correctly described. Many people have failed so far to send in any list at all,
 and as the time is growing short the as- sessor is growing little nervous and un-
 easy. The law requires him to make
 the assessment of all property whether given in by the owner or not, and this of course will entail much extra and difficult work and then, even at best, it
 cannot be accurate. MT. Snyder is not
 disposed to shirk the work, but after it is done he would very much like to have
 it correct Those who have not sent in | their lists as requested should do so be-
 fore June 1st as the work of making the
 tax roll will begin then. Many reforms
 have been made this year in the mode
 of assessing the property of the county, but with all the pains and work of the
 assessor, unless the property owners lend reasonable amount of co-opera-
 tion, many errors will necessarily oc- cur
