WE publish this week the decision of the Supreme Court on the question involving the validity of the acts of the Fifteenth Legislative Assembly of Arizona after the expiration of the six ty days limit, together with the dis senting opinion of Chief Justice Wright, in order that our readers may judge for themselves of the methods by which the learned gentlemen com posing the court arrived at different conclusions. Our profound ignorance of the laws intricacies must stand as our apology for not concurring in the opinion of the court in its definition of the limitation of the legislative ses- sion. The whole case rested upon the construction placed upon the simple section of the United States statutes "The sessions of the Legislative As semblies of the several territories of the United States shall be limited to sixty days duration." Itdoes not read "secular" days, nor does it exclude holidays, but plainly says what it means, "limited to sixty days dura- tion." The legislature is in session upon Sunday, or else it begins and ends separate session during the six secular days of the week, which is not lawful under the statutes. To limit, means to set boundary within which the act or acts must be done, and a limitation of sixty days duration can not in any sense mean seventy or eighty days. But while we may differ in our opinion upon this question with the Court, we must commend il upon the promptness with which the case was determined. It involved public interests of great magnitude and even a decision that might be reversed upon appeal is better thar the doubt and uncertainty that has so long lowered over our territorial affairs. So far as the people are con cerned it interests them little whether the conclusions of the Court are sound or otherwise so long as one set of off cials is eliminated and the confusion is removed. It is bad enough to en dure one, but both is a calamity.

There is strong feeling in favor of changing the name of Tombstone to some other more appropriate one for this city. That it has had it's draw backs from such dismal sounding name is plain to every one. It can be done by the board of supervisors at the time of reincorporation. Nearly every man whose all is at stake in this town is in favor of the change. A sug- gestion has been made that Richmond was the name given to the first loca- tion of town here, which was what was known afterwards as old town and was staked out near the Lucky Cuss, and there is no reason why the old name should not be taken up again -PrOspector.

Last Saturday John Anderson ar rived from the Yaqni river country. He has been engaged for several years past in mining and prospecting for the Minas Prietas company.

He was coming up the hill from the Turquois, and when about half way up overlook three burros loaded with wood. The horse which he was driv- ing shied, which in itself would not have been serious, but when close to one of them the jackass prayed, as only lackass can, and frightened the horse off his feet into patch of soap roots, where the overturning of the vehicle was an easy matter.

Rad His Growl. but Paid His Fare
When the March blizzard of 1888 was
in full swing a night car was stopped at
the corner of Ninth and SAMSON streets,
and for hours and hours the one solitary
passenger was kept waiting. Finally he
grew tired and bunked for the night at a
neighboring store. But he has never
forgotten that a ride for which he had
paid ten cents Was cut short. On We'd
nesday night opportunity was offered
this gentleman to get even with the com

demanded hat he be allowed to finish

and compelled him to drop another dime
This he did, but devoted the forty-hve
minutes of his ride to wrangling over
that dime.-Philadelphia Record

DEBT, DIRT AND THE DEVIL.

To keep debt dirt and the devil out
of my cottage has been my greatest
wish ever since set up ousekeeping.
Surely these form a trinity of evils that
should be carefully guarded against. A
man who is in debt Is n slave, toiling
TO meet the demands of another. He
cannot call what he possesses his own.
lie had better great deal have less,
and "Owe no man anything" accord
ing to the apostolic injunction, than to
have large possessions for which he is
responsible, but which in whole or ia
part belong to another. A man iD debt
is like person overheard with a great
weight about his neck, with which, by
great exertion, he may reach the shore,
but which, nevertheless, may sink him
NJ any moment. But whatever excuse
may be make for men going Into debt,
surely none can be offered tor their liv.
ing in dirt. Soap and water are cheap
and brushes and brooms are not very
expensive.

, "sTAND UP FOR MISSOURI
From the ColumbIs Herald. |


This is the caption of All editorial
which appeared last week in a repub
lican exchange. The voters of the state
were urged to "redeem Missouri" to
"wipe out the Bourbon blot" TO "stand
up for the best interests of the state"
and by electing lot of republicans TO
office "pnt our glorious commonwealth
on the highway to progress and pros
perity.
We hear and read great amount OF
such rot, especially during campaign
years. The statements are altogether
false. The election of the republican
state ticket in Missouri would not be II
step forward but backward. 1t would
be a return to the days of Rodman,
McClurg and Fletcher. when the ex-
penses of state administration were
twice as large as they are TO day, when
the state was impoverished by debt,
and immigration avoided Missouri as
though moral and material pestileoce
stalked abroad over the commonwealth
continually. To go back to such days
and such administration wonld be to
reverse the wheels OF progress aud
admit that the past of reconstruction
and radical oppression is better than
the present of economical, popular

Who received the democratic nOmi
nation for state superintendent OF
schools was born in Lewis county, Va i.
in 1852, and was eight years old when
the civil war broke out. During the
war his parents, discouraged and
broken In fortune, decided 10 remove
to Harrison, Ky. In the fall of 1865
the age of thirteen, he entered the dis
trict school for the first time. Owing
to the calamities of the war he had not
enjoyed days schooling up TO this
time. The short term OF winter school
passed by followed by the long spring,
summer and tall of farm drudgery, and
this by another brief term of winter
school. During these eight months OF
school he made commendsble progress.
On account of the i'll health of his
father and the crippling of his Oldest
brother the management and chieI
labor OF the farm devolved upon him,
assisted by a younger brother. He was
