At the recent meeting of the Amer ican Bar Association in Chicago, Pro. lessor Baldwin, of the Yale College Law School, in his address on "The Centenary of Modern Government, paid handsome tribute to the in- Ausnce of the press. He said: "An. other characteristic of modern gov ernment is its support from journal ism. It Is not too much to say that it could net exist and could not have existed without it, less from the direct influence which it exertS than from the publicity and close scrutiny of official action which it secures. Until hundred years ago legislatures, the world over, sat practically with closed doors. Journalism during this cen tury has demanded that they be thrown open, and has thus put the people bodily into the legislative as sembly. Secrecy has been lost and safety gained safety, for no law is so bad as the ill-considered law, and no law can be well considered that has not been fully discussed in public by the men whose interests it concerns. Here, think, has been the great work of the newspaper in politics. It has turned on the electric llght.'

The failure of the copper producers to agree among themselves, and the abandonment of the proposed combi- nation will not be regretted in Arizo- Ia, as It IS not likely that prlces will ge so low as to materially lessen pro- duction in this Territory. Lower pri- ceS will be beneficial in many ways. The consumption of copper will large y increase and the curtailment of pro. duction will permit of old stocks be- ing used up, and the market will soon acquire a healthier tone,
 The Rothchilds, who are largely in. terested in the defunct French syndi- cates copper, are credited with caus- ing rupture of negotiations between producers, by selling Laks copper at llac, while the pool was holding at 12c. When the situation became gen orally known Lake brands declined 10 He, and with but few purchasers at that figure. Eleven cents will proba- ply bo about the ruling price of Lake Tn the near future, which would make best Arizona copper worth 101c.s, at which figure there would still be a very fair profit to producers,

THE ATLANTIC COAST STORM.

The columns of Eastern papers are still burdened with accounts of the havoc wrought by the recent storm which prevailed for week along the Atlantic coast. It was unprecedented in duration, and in the height of the tides and storm waves which sub merged coast towns and sea shore re- sorts, wrecked hundreds of vessels, and destroyed many lives. Along the coasts of Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Long Island and Massachu- sstts the storm ragged with unwon- toned fury. for time the wind blew at the rate of 64 miles an hour, and the surf was the widest and highest witnessed for many years. Atlantic City was completely cut off from the mainland, and there, as we'll as at all the beaches along the coast, houses and pavllIons were demolished, rail- roads washed away, hotels inundated and in many instances the guests im- prisoned for hours, and women and children rescued with difficulty by being carried on stout shoulders through the seething flood to places of safety.
 In New York City the water rese to the level of piers which ordinarily are twelve feet above high water mark, and cellars and first floors of build ings along the water front were flooded Up the Hudson the tides ,were the highest ever known, and at Poughkeepsie the water encroached upon the docks for distance of 300 feet inland
 The coast shipping was at the mercy of wind and tide and frail crafts were hurled upon the beach and their crews left to the unequal contest of buffet ing with the angry waves. Hundreds of brave lives were sacrificed to the fury of the gale, and that the loss of life was not iourfold greater was owing to the heroic efforts of the life saving service.
 It will require some time yet before the details of tue storm are all in and an accurate estimate can be made of the destruction to life and property, However, 1t is reasonably certain that the value of the shipping and other property destroyed will aggregate sey. eral mi ilkon dollars.

GROuNDLEss EXPECTATIONS.


 The act of the 18th Legislative As sembly, approved March 18th, 1889, requiring Boards of Supervisors of the several counties to mark the graves of pauper dead is most timely in view of the death of the proposition to invest Arizona with statehood, as is also the subsequent act (March 2lst, '89) which bars the door of hospitals against all persons seeking relief other than those making affidavit before a justice of the peace that he IS citizen of the United States. While these Legislative brats were eminations of the Zulick dynas- ty, they were dry-nursea by both Re- publican and Democratic members, but, nevertheless, they bear evidence of the taint of their rrogenitsrs, and when weighed by a discerning censtit- uency, were pronounced unworthy of either love or care, and, consequently, were neglected, and at their deaths no flowers were strewn upon their grave, in Pottsr'S field.
 The authors of those acts should be made to feel that life is a gallng load and their ill-favored progeny should as firmly rest upon their shoulders as the old nan of the mountain upon the shoulders of Sinbad; nor should the bitter recollection of their legislative career fail to attend them as their shadows. Neither act is defensible. One was intended to deplete the coun- ty treasuries without resulting bene- fits; the other palsles the hand of charity against sick and suffering hu- manity because an applicant for relief cannot swear before a justice of the peace that he is a citizen of the United States. :" The spirit which legislated against the sick and destitute, of foreign element" would, had it sug- gested itself, denied sepulchral rights, including burial in Yankee soil.
 The prejudice that enacted the Ter ritorial law againSt foreigners was less tolerant than the ritual of the native American or Know Nothing party, of 1856. That party enun- clated principle sufficiently bread to found a national party, although short lived, The act barring hospital doors to foreigners is dead, no Board of Supervisors deeming it of sufficient importance ts waste thought upon its enforcement.
 The State movement was of prema- lure birth, and born to die even be- fore learning the use of the sucking bottle, but not so the memory of the father of the measure, whose name is preserved in the annals of the 18th Legislative Assembly. The law call ing convention, or what political saints in crape are pleased to refer to as law, has not legal claim upon the Governor for It's observance, but on the contrary United State court decis- ions, in similar cases, as well as the Department of Justice, admonished him to pay no attention to the windy side of the question, and remember to act upon the hypothesis that nothing IS law that is not reason.

Nd arc in recaipt of a pamphlet a,

We are in receipt of pamphlet ad- vocating the free admission of lead ores from Mexico, published by the Beard of Trade, Common Council and Southwestern Mining Association, of Fl Pazo. Its contents is made up of newspaper clippings, and resolutions in which a few men interested in smelling enterprises at Fl Paso, and in Mexican mines, presume to speak fer the miners of Arlzena, New Mex leo and the entire SouthwCst, denoune- ing the ruling of the Treasury De- partment enforcing the aw leyying a duty on lead in silver-le&d ores from Mexico, which had previously, for many years, been shamefully evadad
 We are not among those who be- lleye that a great inning industry of the United States should be paralyzed by the free competition of foreign mines which employ pauper labor, for the exclusive benefit of a few grasp ing corporations and individuals, Arizona and New Mexico are abun- dantly able to supply the smslters of the Southwest with lead ores if this rulnous competition be removed. The Fl Paso people had better turn their attention to the development of lead properties on American soil, as the more reasonable and permanent solu- tion of the lead question.

The Charles ton developed a speed of 1912 knots for two hours run, and the Balti- more an average of 1916 knots for four hours. and maximum of 202 knots. If unable to cope with the enemy the new cruisers may at least be able to eyade them.

The San Francisco Chronicle, of a recent date, publishes an interview with Will Smith, detective for the Southern Pacific Railroad Company and deputy U, s. Marshal for Arizona, in which he claims to have received a letter announcing the arrest of Fran cisco Vega, at Altar, Mexico. Vega is wanted for the murder of Barney Martin and family, at. Nlgger Wells, on the road between Prescott and Phoenix, in 1886. The bodies of the victims and their wagon were found where they had been burned to de- stroy evidence of the crime, but the horses dlven by Martin, which had been shot down by the murderers, were identified, and upon this slender clue sufficient evidence was obtained to secure the indictment oi Ynocente Valen2uela, alias Antonio Gonzales. Pedro Lucero, Jose Vega and Fran cisco Vega. lnocente Valenzuela was one of the gang that murdered Cyrus Gibble, superintendent of the Vulture mine, and two guards, in the summer of 1888, and was overtaken by Smith and posse and shot Barney Martin, when killed, was supposed to be in possession of S3,500. A demand for the extradition of Francisco Vega will be made upon the Mexican gov ernment.

INVALID LAWS.

The failure of Gov. Wolfey to issue proclamation calling special elec- ton for delegates to constitutional convention as provided by an act passed by the Fifteenth Legislature, and approved March 2lSt, 1889, has received much sharp criticism by many individuals of both political faiths, and portion of the Territorial press.
 The question of the ability of Ari- Zona to maintain State government and other numerous objections against and propositions for her advent into the union as State could never enter into the matter of the Governors non action. When examined and sifted under the light of numerous legal de- cisions the Convention law as well as other cotemporaneous acts are found wanting in validity.
 The AttorRey.General of the United States has lately rendered an opinion which not only questions the legality of this law, but also many measures passed by the several legislatures since 1881. As was stated in the BELT of Sept. 14th, that opinion pronounced the laws fixing the date of the com mencement of the legislatures since 1881 invalid, and that their several sessions should have begun on the first Monday in Januar biennlally, and that all laws passed after sixty consecutive days from said date were of no legal force or virtue; and fur thor, that the laws passed subsequent to the Eth day of March, 1889, by the Fifteenth Legislative Assembly are nugatory,
 The Attornsy-Genera points out di- rect legislation by Congress as the on ly mode ot relief for this unfortunate condition of legislation. By this is meant, as stated, direct legislation. The mere approval by Congress of the laws passed by Territorial legislative bodies IS not as complete and effective as is commonly supposed, Such ac- ton by that body is not to be chased under the term "dlrect legislation" It is a first principle that legislative body cannot by approval or ratifiea- ton make a void act vahd, and also that an act of our legislature must not be contrary to the Constitution of the United States, or to the Organic Act, or to any law of Congress. Ifany law eontravsneS this paramount law 1t is invalid, void from its beginning, with out any disapproval of Congress, and the approval of the acts of legisla- ture in bulk or in an omnibus bill does not validate such law. Neither does long acquiescenco by Congress, or by the people, or by custom make law valid which was at its attempted creation an illegality.
 All courts recognize this as funda- mental law and when the various measures which have been passed at. tempting to change the time of the commencement of the regular sessions of our legislatures are viewed from this position the Convention Act is found to be deficient in point of time in it's passage, therefore, invalid from its inception and, together with many other laws, a dead letter upon our Statute books.

To Missouri belongs the honor of numbering among her citizens |. two weather prophets who with remarka- ble accuracy predicted the great storm which devastated the Atlantic coast. The Missouri Republic, lu the latter part of July, published a letter from Prei, George Root, of Canton, in which he predicted that the greatest storm period that had occurred within 100 years, would be from Septemb Der 18th to 18th, and that the storm center would take its course along tho Gulf and Atlantic coasts, producing hurri- canes and tidal waves. Reference to Prof. Roots forecast was mads m the BELT at the time.
 Rev, Irl R. Hicks, of Wells Station, near St. Louis, whe Is the publisher of weather paper, also foretold the storm, lie said, "The 12th of Septem- ber is not only about the date of of greatest electrical excitement dur ing every autumnal equinox but is, this year, the center of regular storm period. Therefore, from about the 10th to 10th may be expected many active and perhaps violent and destructive storms and gales. Seamen and others will do well to lmudently heed all storm signals, and Indications on or about the 11th, 12th, 18th and l4th."
