Appointment OF w. E. Thomas Yes
terday.
Information was received Yesterday
OF the nomination of W. E. Thomas to
be postmaster of Phoenix. Thus is
settled, a contest which was begun i'm
mediately after the Inauguration.
The appointment gives general sat
isfaction, as Mr.. Thomas is widely
known to be possessed of those quail
ties so desirable in a postmaster. He
is most accommodating and genial
gentleman and his clerical abilities and
methodical business methods have
beentested in long service as deputy
county recorder. He had been warmly
endorsed by strong political and hun
dreds OF personal friends, who are graft
fed at his appointment. His chief op-
position was Mr.. E. Kurtz, a gentleman
who, though he has lived in Phoenix
little more than year. gathered
around him large number Of strong
and ardent supporters.

CITY COUNCIL.


The Opera House is In Effect Con-
demned.
The opera house was practically con-
demnsd by the city council last night,
The supplemental report of the special
committee appointed by the street com.
mlttee was received, accepted and
placed on file. The committe reiterated
its opinion that the building was Unsafe
in construction and provided with in
adequate facilities for escape in the
event of fire. It. further recommended
the reconstruction of the building from
the second floor. but explained that by
reconstruction it was not meant that
the building would necessarily have to
be torn down to the second floor, 1t
also recommended that broader stair
ways of iron be put in and that stair
way be constructed on the south side of
the building.
After some discussion by the council
az to its duty it was decided that the
street committee confer with the own
ers of the building as to the plan of re.
construction.
The city marshal was directed to no.
tify the opera house managers that in
the meantime no license would be is
sued for performance in the building.
The Chicago Quartette is billed for an
appearance on February II and the
managers will be notified this morning
that they may in. turn wire the troupe
of the inability to give the show a. ad-
vertised.
Reports of various city officials were
received, among which was that of the
zanjero concerning the obstacles he en-
countered in collecting water rates.
Steps were taken to pass an ordinance
the business of making
these collections to the city marshal.

THE ROBBERY or THE EXPRESS CAR.

The robbery OF the express car between
Richmond and Washington City is an
event Of the first Importance. Nothing Of
the sort has ever happened in Virginia
before, and. IL We could believe that the
act was perpetrated by Virginians, it
would be an event of the most humiliat-
Ing character to the people OF this State.
We have not the slightest idea, however,
that the robbers were Vrginians. 1t
would hardly be possible for seven men
OF the neighborhood to engage in an en-
terprise Of that sort without doing some
thing to fix the suspicion of their neigh
bors upon some one of them. Besides,
while the people who live along the Fred
ericksburg railroad where the robbery
took place are poor, they are as honest
and as sterling Virginians as any in the
state. We do not for one moment be-
lieve that the robbers were natives Of
that region. The locality of the robbery
is n wild one, with few settlers living
near. II is just the kind OF place that
bandits Of that sort would select for
such q job We have not the slightest
doubt that these scoundrels are a gang
from the sums OF New York, or some
other large city. who studied out the case
well and selected this locality for the
scene OF their operations. The chances
are hundred to one that they crossed
the Potomac in boats, and are now work
ing their way through Maryland TO Bal
timore, or a railroad.
But the offence that the bandits have
committed is one of the most serious
that can be perpetrated against society.
Unchecked, it has a most paralyzing ef-
feet upon commerce Of every character,
including travel. Every influence that
society can command should be enlisted

RANKING A NATURAL RIGHT.

In the speech which Judge George l..

answer to Judge Christian. He said that
banking was not natural right, which
we enjoy as We enjoy the right to live.
If, said he. the right Is a conferred priVi-
lege, the legislative body granting it has
the right to annex whatever conditions
Il pleases, and II seemed to him that the
smallest of those conditions is that all
notes should be properly secured.
This, 1t seems to us. is. to say the least,
an empirical way OF dealing whh sub

means maintain his proposition that bank
