 This may all be true, but Boston and Hartford have been made veal thy by the mines and farms and railroads in the far West, and by insuring buildings of the whole country; and if it were not for the far West as place for investment, New England would be as badly harrassed by her wealth as England, that has to SCOUT the whole world to find a place in which to invest it. Nevertheless, we agree with the Gazette that there is still a profta- ble business for every enterprising and industrious concern in New England. There may be few in dustries of the cruder kind doomed to extinction, but there is abundant room yet for the exercise of the splendid skill of New England me- chanics and textile workers, and there is no reason why, with proper education of her rising generation in the finer industries, she should not rank equal to France in artistic productions, in which she has only recently made a beginning-Engi- neering and Mining Journal.

An Infamous Project.

It will be seen by the Star spe.
 cial that Wolfey is before the com. mittee on territories, seeking to have bill passed, giving him pow.
 CT to remove at will all territorial
 and county officers. Did ever ras-
 cality reach out farther in its vil-
 famous scope than this? The idea
 of a federal appointee, seeking to
 clothe himself with powers to nulli-
 fly the will of the voters of this ter
 ritory, as expressed in the election
 of officers. Should this infamous
 measure become law, the citizens
 of Arizona would be absolutely at
 his mercy; they might elect an en-
 tire set of county officers, and this self constituted dictator would have it in his power to remove any, or all of them at will. No such power was ever given into the hands of a human being in this republic, and we sincerely hope it will not be granted thls ignoramus. The pres ident of the United States has no such powers, in fact, there is no power lodged in any source. The election franchise is sacred, and the only prescribed power ofremov- al of an elective officer, is by pro- cess of impeachment. The Gazette warned the citizens of Arizona against this scoundrel, and now they see the warning was not an idle one. The Supervisors of Mari copa county and the district attor- ney, have refused to bow their necks in subjection to his dictates, and the purpose of this bills to remove them; but the house committee, thanks to our able delegate, were mortified at his project, and refused to entertain it for moment. The chairman asked him if our people were not capable of self government and the man whom Noble placed in the chair as governor, intimated that they were not. What a com- upon the intelligence of .he citizens of Arizona; men who have fought the battles of civiliza- ion, on this Indian ridden frontier are accused of being incapable of self Government. We apprehend that the career of this hound is fast drawing to a close, as no man can heap abuse upon the free citizens of Arizona, and be permitted to govern them.-Gazet tte.

Government Ownership of Rail
 roads.

A genuine surprise is contained
 in the annual report of the Chica-
 go and Alton Railroad, in which the
 president of the road reviews the existing railroad situation as af- fected by measures of Government regulation. He says, among other things, that the actual value of rail road investments has been reduced during the last five years nearly $1 ,000,000,000, and is now being re- duced by the course of the State and Federal Governments at the rate of nearly s1,OOO,OOO a day. If this course is to be continued, he says, in less than ten years there will be only a very few railroad shares in the United States that will have any value. As a remedy for this state of affairs he suggests the ownership of railroads engaged in interstate traffic by the National Government, and the organization of a corps of railroad operators who shall remain in the service during good behavior and be in no greater degree under the influence politicians or political parties than the army. He further suggests that a board of National railroads, with power to fix rates on interstate traf- fic and to approve, reject, or amend rates fixed by State authorities on traffic within State lines. The proposal for Government owner ship of railroads is not a new or strange one, but it is calculated to excite unmixed surprise when made by the president of such a road as the Chicago and Alton.-Brad- street.

Who Is To Blame.

Arizona, as a rule, has been bless ed with the governors, who utilized their high offices to advance the interests of the territory; but 1t can be truthfully said, that the four years of democratic rule under Gov. ernor Zulick, were the four most prosperous years Arizona has ever experienced. Territorial warrants, which were always gilt edged paper rose during his administration to par, and the credit of the territory was second to no other under Un- cle Sam's dominion. Now we ask in candor, look at the situation af- ter ten months of Wolfey's rule. Our territorial warrants are abso- lutely unsaleable, and the territory's credit impaired; it is useless for Wolfey's organs to shout, that the cause of all of this is the Zulick officers, for admitting, they are not entitled to the offices under the law; the courts were at all times open to obtain legal possession of the various offices. If the Wolfey appointees were legal, why was not the courts invoked to unseat their opponents? Now, the answer is clear; Wolfey knew he was wrong he disobeyed a plain statute, in refusing to call a constitutional con vention, and also disregarded the opinion of Attorney General Miller, from whom he sought legal advice. Now a man who would trample up- on the laws of the territory, as did this one, certainly has no regards for the territory or its finances, and the cheap buncomb now sought to be manufactured for him by his funding bill, is the veriest bosh. The territorial indebtedness is now in bonded form, and no act of con- gress can recall those bonds until maturity.-GaZette.
