 Phenix will shortly vote on proposi- ten to issue bonds for the completion of her city hall.
 There will be no war with Germany ,hs year. The Samoan affair will blow ever with the spring breezes.
 Congress has called on Secretary Bay ard to furnish them light on the Samoan affair by producing all correspondence on the subject.
 Mr. Cleveland's latest veto was to a proposition made by lady friends of
 Mrs. Cleveland to have the latter's DOT trait painted for the White House.
 Because the people of Prescott used all honorable means to retain the capi- tai until the close Of the session, they are called conspirators by the Phenix
 Gazette
 Mir Cleveland in his Samoan impelicy takes the alternative which is sometimes pr, sented in wild Western mining camps
 He won't fight, but he'll treat.-New Yrk Sun.
 Owing to the strained relations exist ine between the state and navy depart ments at Washington over the Samoan affair il is given out that either Whitney or Bayard will resign at an early day.
 If the legislature really has the best interests of the territory at heart they Slll lop of the useless expenditures heretofore made for the superintendent of public instruction and commissioner of immigration.
 A Phenix paper says that the members of the legislature will be banoueted there 'ss soon after their arrival as conven- ience and propriety may dictate 2 They must be somewhat fastidious down there when they commence to consult propriety, something heretofore a stranger to them.
 The Tucson Star effects te believe hat the action of the legislature in removing the territorial capital 10 Phenix will take that question out of politics Tn the future. Of course Hughes knows better than that, as he knows that there will be just as much trading and as many combinations formed in the future on the capital | question as there has been in the past.
 Hon H. R. Jefords. of Tucson, is a
 ndidate for :he office of U. S attor-
 for Arizona. MT. Jeffords is cor eded to be one of the most able and Julian, members ef the Arizona bar, ~d as an uncompromising, conscien- 'i"us republican he nas no superior. We have not heard of any opposition to Jeffords for the office he seeke and
 believe that bettef appointment
 q not be n.a.ie both for the interests tre- general government and the peo- f Arizona.
 has been decided by the legislature Pennsylvania that the question of rohibiiion shall be submitted to pop- T vote at special election next June. Tn, prohbitionis,s have already begun t,lGepare for a prodigious campaign g1G.sr1g the next five months in every part of the State. But the returns Of ast November's electors, when they had candidates in the field, do not pre- aote the belief that they will be able to cSsy the state, or any precinct of any 5 al ne rarrnties, in June.
