The recent election in Florence cGunEyI
for the unexpired senatorial term resulted
in the election Of J. E. Pettigrew over D. Il.
Traxler, both Reformers. The former, we
are informed, belongs to what IS known as
a "McLaurinite, the other as 'anti-Mc-
Lauria." If this be correct, the hcey poll
ticians OF Florence court house must feel
somewhat chagrined at their defeat, because
it has been thei, boast for long time that
McLaurin nor his friends need apply for
public favor in that county. One of Nc
iaurin's friends, however, did apply, and
the people gave him what he asked for in
spite of the self assumed managers of the
right of the people in Florence comfy,
and when the next election rolls around We
expect to see number OF the now stiff
necks begging McLaurin for quarter.

THE STATES COLLEGES.
The Convention Devotes a Day tc
Discussing Their Status.

OASSS<SSN~S
CoLvMBIA, Nov. 16.-Speciai.-This en-
tire day of the Constitutional Convention
was devoted to discussion of the question
whether the Legislature should be required,
or simply authorized, 10 make proper pro-
vision for the different colleges.
The speech of the day WAS made by Seu-
ator Watson Of Edgeield, his proposition
being to substitute may" for tshalHln the
section relating to these institutions. Mr.
Watson took the general position that the
State cannot maintain real university; it
ought not to attempt anything in that line
he said the higher colleges must be sup
ported by en6owments. He thought they
Should receive just such support as the
people, represented in the Legislature,
should, from time 10 time be pleased to
give. The Consultation should not tie tie
hands of the peoples representatives py
am mandate on this subject
In the course Of his speech Mr., Watson
paid handsome tribute to the denomina-
tional colleges OF This State, citing them as
exam pies of what private efforts, properly
directed and united, may do.
1t was stated, by some of the coiored
delegates, that Clafin University, at Or
apceburg, is really under the control of the
Northern Methodist church, though that
BODY gives but s1,500 out of the $4,000
used for its support. This particular mat
ter was laid over for future inquiry anI &C
ton.
The ordinance to postpone the next ses-
SION of the Legislature till the second Tues
dav in January, 1886, received its third
reading. The Governor will, in a few uays,
issue his proclamation formally annoaoc-
ing such postpouement.
The Convention adjourned to meet 1t
noon on Monday.

WASTE OF TIMBER.

There may not be anything new in the following item, but it ought to be printed in every paper in this broad land, and in the timber portions of Arizona it ought 10 be printed in the biggest kind of red letters and posted on every building, that every man might read and study it:
 Professor Runnebaum of Berlin, sent by the German government to examine the timber resources of our Pacific coast, expressed amazement at the waste he witnessed there. He says the end of American forests is near at hand unless they are protected by law against reckless cutting and conllagra- tions. While the leading countries of Europe are trying to make trees grow the Americans are sweeping away not only the mature trees, but the sap lings, which are the righlful heritage of future generations. If nothing is done by your government: in his opinion. ''you may live to see lumber shipped from Germany to Puget Sound" When the professor was in Oregon and Washington the whole coast was darkcned with smoke from fires devorring enormous tracts of timber unsurpassed in the world. His remark that the life of the forest is the life of the people is no flourish of rhetoric. It Is verified law of nature, but triiled with or ignored as yet in America.

NOT OVERDONE.

As many of our residents are of the opinion that if Flagstaff grows busi- ness will be overdone we clip from the Phoenix "Heraldn the experience of that prosperous town in this respect:
 Hive years ago it was said by the faint-hearted and short-sighted that in Phoenix the professions were too crowded. business was overdone. there were too many stores, there was too much fruit to make it's culture profit able, there was an over-production of cereals and farm commodities, and many like expressions of discourage ment and despair. But the lawyers kept coming, new capital sought in vestmcnt, dormant energies were aroused, the youth and vigor of the east sought in the west the expansion of their mental, moral and financial resources. The virgin desert slipped the nectar of the mountain spring, and her form. was arrayed in waving fields of golden grain, and her checks glowed with the pink and crimson of the ripened fruit. New markets have been opened, others will be. In an enter prising community there is ever a feeling of fear for tEe sharpness of competition, ever feeling of doubt as to whether the future will provide for the anxious present. But If the faith pinned to the resources of a valley like ours be the result of careful judgment there can be no error. In the profes- sions or trades crowded as they seemed to be at that time, added to as they have been since, none are anxious to leave, even if success has been but par tal. Farm products bring as good prices as usual, except in the scarcity of the early days, before the advent of railroads. and the echoing cry of fruit dealers during the past season was "a scarcity of good fruit" The world moves, and the Salt Rivervalley in the onward march is leading the vanguard of the southwest flank. Let everybody do something. With muscle and brains lubricate the golden chariot wheels of progress and our natural resources will take care of the future.

THEY WERE SUCCESSFUL.
Al Gordon is Arrested in Utah and
 Brought Back to Flagstaff.

Under Sheriff Fletcher Fairchild and Deputy Niles Cameron. have returned from trip 10 Monticello. Utah. They were gone month to a day, and trav- elcd oyer 800 miles. The trip was caused by the desire of Sheriff Cameron | to serve some old warrants which came into his hands when he first took office and could not be served because the parties wanted could not be found. The whereabouts of the parties was found some time since, and Fair child and Cameron were successful in locating and arrestIng Al Gordon. who is wanted on a charge of illegally branding stock. Gordon was brought back and gave bail in the sum of $500 to appear at the next term of court. They also brought in from Tuba City Joseph Fouts, who is insane and will be sent on to the insane asylum at Phoenix. They also report the killing of James Souders who was at one time notorious cowbop of Apache county. He was going by the name of Jim Rumnel and was shot by :. companion named Al Holseman in a quarrel which grew out of ihe lassoing of Souders' horse by his partners. The man who did the shooting made his escape.
 The vicinity of Monticello is filled with men, the majority of whom are wanted somewhere else. The country is far away from the railroad and al- most inaccessible.
 The trip was q long and more ol less dangerous one, and Messrs. Fair child and Cameron were glad to get back to civilization once more.

SENATOR PETER denies the state ment of Senator Chandler that the populist Senators had or would volun- teer to assist the republicans to organ ize the Senate. Speaking of the state ment Mir. Peifrr sad Ut is entirely unauthorized. l have never taken any one into my confidence as to how l will use my vote on this or any other question. The fact is l do not know myself how the populists will vote on reorganization. We have never had any consultation on the subject The one thing shall favor strongly will be the united action of the populists in any course they may adopt" The senator said that while Senators Jones and Stewart of Nevada would be in- vited to attend the popnlis, conference to be held just before the opening of Congress, he doubted whether they would attend, as he had an idea that after their abortve attempt to found Il new silver party to supplant the popu- lists they would this winter return to the republican ranks.
