WE rise to endorse Governor Murphy's veto of House bill No. 32. This bill, if we understand 1t rightly, allows citizens of Mexico to enjoy the full privileges ot American citizenship by the mere resi- dence of one year in the Territory. Under the bill they are not required to take the oath of allegiance to the United States or foreswear allegiance to the land of their birth. This cheapening of American citizenship will find no favor with American people and the universal verdict of the people of Arizona will be heard to sustain tke veto of our gov ernor. An American citizen to the manner born, must wat 2l years before he would be as good a man under the bill as the most illiterate foreigner who had been driven by hunger, oppression and poverty to seek a residence of one year in the Territory of Arizona. Ameri- can citizenship was purchased at high price and has been maintained at too great sacrifice of money and blood to be thus lightly fritted away. How such bill came to pass body of American citizens, the greater portion of whom we believe are native born, is an enigma that IS not readily read. We reprodnce elsewhere the governors veto in full

SECRETARY GRESHAM is said to be the only member of the cabinet opposed to allowing Republicans in the diplomatic and consular service to retaln their posi- tions until their terms expire. He is repor ted to have said at cabinet meet ing, when the matter was under discus sion: "If am allowed to have my way there will not be a Republican in either the diplomatic OF consular service in three months. I believe In turning the last one of them out at the earliest possible moment" To the credit Os the President be iJ said his turn-coat Secre- tary will not be allowed to have his way. In fact no member of the cabinet is per mitted to make the most insignificant appointment without submitting it to the President and obtaining his consent Gresham's sentiments, however, do not rise above the sentiments of the average apostRte either in politics or religion. New converts to faith are ever noted for their zeal in the propagation of the doctrine of their adoption. The more new the more radical in their faith and the mora vindictive toward thes late Rs- sociates and former co-laborers. Gres- ham is evidently no exception to the rule.

LAST OF THE DRUIDS.

 Druid Rites and Beliefs.

Strange Welsh Character Who Held to
 Druid Rites and Beliefs.
 We regret to announce the death of the high priest of the sun, at the ripe age of ninety-two, says the PaIl Mall Budget. To the eye of faith he was the last of the dI-uids; the profane knew him only as D.. William Price, of Llantrissant, in Glamorganshire, and characterized him as "a most eccen tric man." It must be admitted that they were not altogether without excuse for this opinion. He attempted to initiate the pOntifcal raiment of his predeces- sOrs in the priesthood, wearing a whole fox skin on his head. light green coat with trousers to match, and a scarlet waistcOat. As a reproduction of druidic costume the profane may perhaps be again excused for thinking this little uncOnvincing. Even high priests of the sun are not without human weak nesses, and Dr. Price signalized this truth at the age of eighty-one by mar rying his hOusekeeper, a girl of nine teen. One must allow that this step is a touch of prose in such a character, but he redeemed it shortly afterward by attempting to burn the body of his child on a funeral pyre which he erected in a neighboring field. The druid could hardly take account or the constable.

THE bill introduced by Graham of Pinal, in the legislature, for the Proven tion of Cruelty to Animals will meet the hearty approval of every human being whose feeling for dumb brutes are even half way human.

We trust and believe that the bill will become law without a dissenting vote in either house, and commend it to the governor for his speedy signature.

THE bill introduced by Skinner to cut down the present meagre prices of doing public advertising is simply a method some men have of doing evil for good, Were it not for the news papers Arizona would be desert today, Its population would be less than one half what it IS and the criminal element would largely predomInate. The press has always proved an unrelenting enemy of wrong doing. It has incurred the enmity of wrong doers. It has made It possible for honest linen and women to regard our Territory as fit place in which to rear a family. Arizona would not be known today in the east ern States but as a portion of the great American desert had it not been for tEe press of the Territory. And in the face
 of this and much more, men chosen to represent the people who have been brought here by the representations of the press are at work trying to cripple this agent whose unselfsh devotion to
 the land of adoption has made it possi- ble for them to rise to the dignity of legislators. Men who are continually fighting the press are Arizona's worst enemies. The highwayman, the horse thief, and the man who in early days assisted in giving us name which still c ings to us, were not so detrimental to the growth of our commonwealth as are those who vote to close up every news paper office in the Territory by placing the price of advertising at one-half less

THE Tombstone Prospector, unable to live longer as daily, has announced that on and after May it will issue as a weekly. The struggle of newspaper for existance in Arizona is of the hardest and any effort made to weaken them financially should be suppressed by the good men in both branches of the legis- lature. If these newspaper hackers would devote their time and attention to other and much needed legislation their efforts would be better appreciated by their constituency.
