SEEMS A FATAL NOMINATION.
Judge Cook, Republican Nominee for Con

Judge Cook, Republican Nominee for Con-
gress Falls Dead at Chicago.
CHICAGO, Oct. 12.-Death suddenly IN
tervened in the deliberations of the state
central committee, which met at the Great
Northern hotel to arrange for the cam
paign in the Eighteenth congressional dis.
trict, and to some extent contributed to
bring them to an abrupt termination.
Judge Cyrus L. Cook, of Edwardsville
whose nomination by the Republicans Of
that district to succeed the late Congress
man Reman was looked upon as an ex-
ceptionally strong one, expired suddenly
in his room shortly after his arrival, and
the sad and unexpected event left the COM
mittee practically without anything to do,
and threw gloom over its members.
The death of Judge Cooke has created q
sort of superstition in the minds of the
members of the committee. I'D hate to
be candidate for the Eighteenth con-
gressional district after this" said Major
Partridge, secretary of the state central
committee, when he heard the announce
ment. ut does look as if something was
wrong with that district. Here was Mr..
Remain just barely elected when he Is
carried off by death, and now Judge
Cooke, nominated to succeed him, and as
good as elected, is also snatched suddenly
away to his last account"

SAYS THE Arizona Citizen: The dis cussion on the propriety of taxing church property now going on will do much to bring about better under standing between the masses of the people and the churches, and will Tn the end result in much good to all con- cerned. The belief was prevalent that the church paid no taxes on secular property but drew revenues from the same for it's aggrandizement. This was forcibly refuted by the letter of Bishop Bodrgade in the Citizen yesterday. He showed exclusively that the property held by the Catholic diocese in this city was taxed at $12,OO0 and that as re- suit of such valuation there is paid into the county treasury $500 in taxes an- nually. He shows further that the en- tire revenues derived from said property were devoted exclusively to educational and charitable purposes. Here is food for thought and a weighty protest against nasty action.

THE CHARACTER of Leo XIII grows brighter and brighter in the eyes of'the world as, in the evening of life, he again and again gives evidence of his lofty concern for the welfare of hu- manity. The latest illustration of hls sterling worth IS found in controversy between himself and Cardinal Vaughan of London. The latter has differed from the pope on several points affect ing the interests of the church in Eng land. He clings to the aristocratic idea in religion, and in pursuance of his views he projected magnificent cathe- dral in the English metropolis. Leo laid his hand upon the project and crushed it to the earth by the simple inquiry if 1t were true that London had no Catholic poor.

THE DEFEAT of the railroad pooling bill in the senate renders nugatory all the hard work done by the railroad lobby in the house during the present congress. The prospects of such a measure in the next congress are ex- tremely problematical. The big Re- publican majority in the house will fight exceedingly shy of anything which looks like tIuckling to railroad influences, because the presidential election is approaching and they do not want to risk losing any of the rural vote.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND IS reported to have recently asked some congressmen- elect how they would like to come to Washington and go to work about the 18th of March. This is taken as 8 hint that an extra session is planned to fol. low upon the heels of the one now ex- piring. There is one thing certain that if Cleveland gets another congress Ion his hands" it will be of that politl- cal complexion that means business.

PHGNIX, MARCH 2. 1895.
A WORTHY BILL.

The bill pending in the legislature defining grand larceny to be the theft of property amounting in value to $100 or more ought to become law for two good reasons, either one of which might be considered sufficient. While the penalty affixed, fine of $500, or not less than thirty or not more than nine- ty days in jail, or both fine and impris- onment may sometimes seem made quate, under another provision of the bill 1t carries with it the disgrace of a loss of citizenship, the restoration of which, If 1t takes place at all, Is ac- complished by process more circultous than the restoration of a convict in the penitentiary to citizenship. The chief merit of the bill lies in it's saving to the territory annually of $15, ,000 or $20,000
 It brings within the jurisdiction of justices of the peace very large per centage of the criminal business of the district courts, thus avoiding the tedi- ous, successive and expensive processes of preliminary examination, pre- sentation to grand jury, trial in dls- triet court, and in the event of convic- tion an expensive journey to the peni- tentiary. Under the proposed law the first and final procedure in these cases will cost little more than a preliminary examination.
 But this shows only one half the benefit of the bill; the other and greater half is that as law it will be a greater deterrent of crime, the true office of all penal laws. It is provided that a tr1al may be had before six jurors and that conviction may be obtained on two-thirds yer dict. Trials taking place in the imme- diate vicinity ot the place where the offense is alleged to be committed will much more likely be attended by all
Arizona republican., 1895-03-02

the witnesses whose testimony may establish either the guilt or innocence of the accused than if the trial were held at county seat at @ long and inconvenient distance. Punishment would thus become swifter and the proba biIity of escape by delays ex- pensive to the territory, much more remote. Therefore, in the interest of both public economy and good order this bill ought to become law.
