LOOKS UNFAIR,

The General Managers association, it
now appears, is engaged in an attempt
to steal a march on Il. V. Debs and his
associates who have been indicted for
conspiracy. During his lecture tour Mr..
Debs has stated from the platform that
the trial was postponed at the instance
of the general managers and that he
did not believe they would ever attempt
to prosecute it for they were afraid.
This has evidently put the managers on
their mettle and they have sent a de-
tiance to Debs in the shape of a PROPOSE.
ton to have the trial come off one week
earlier than the date fixed. This may
be- a good thing to telegraph over the
country for effect, but it has no real
merit, The date was fixed by the court
at the Instance of the managers aud
there is no good reason for a change
No doubt Mr.. Debs has timed his affairs
SO as to be in Chicago at the time agreed
upon. To ask him to alter his program
is manifestly unfair. If both sides are
ready and the case proceeds on schedule
time it will nswer all purposes, the
cause of justice will be subeerved, and
the public will know "who are the con.

The First Liberal Church Celebrates Its
First Year of Existence.
The anniversary social given by the
First Liberal church last Friday at Elhs
ball brought out Il large attendance,
Strictly speaking the church was d year
old on the LET of March, but the church
people conceived the idea of celebrating
the completion Of its first year of USE
f%nlness a little too late to fix the day on
the first, One of the most unique things
connected with the social was Il very
dainty invitation which was sent out,
with q little eilken bag enclosing a re-
quest couched IN poetry for its return
Tiled with as many pennies as the recip-
lent was years old. These were only
sent to those who had identified them
selves in some way with the church and
they elected a generous response. 1t is
not often that people claim to be older
than the record will show, but either
pennies were hard to obtain and silver
was substituted, or the church member
snip must comprise some very aged per-
sons or be unusually large, for according
to the returns the combined age of the
friends of the First Liberal church is
more than twice the length of the Chris.
tian era, amounting to 4,036 years.
A very pleasant time was enjoyed by
all in games and listening to IA musical

~CORPOKATE INFLUENCE.

The people of Arizona who mad an
idea that members of the Legislature
were elected to legislate for the best in
terests OF the territory must have real
lied their mistake Saturday morning,
when they read the reports of the close
OF the session. 1t shows that the lobby
lists of rival railroad corporations, not the
we'll being of their constituents, con.
trol!ed the action of the members. Just
why the removal of a state institution
should have evoked so bitter a contro-
versy on the part of the corporations is
hard to even imagine, but according to
the report that was made the pretext
for the defeat of the general appropria-
ton bill, yet there must have been some
other and more weighty reason. Be this
as it may, the incident furnishes food for
serious reflection upon the part of the
people in all sections of the west. 1t
illustrates and emphasizes the fact that
it is the policy Of the managers of the
great roads, made great by land gifts of
the people, to absolutely own the legis-
lative bodies aud direct their actions. In
the case in poiut it was a battle for su.
premacy between two of them, and
while one did not succeed in its purpose
it was strong enough to defeat the most
important bill that came before the law
makers and leave the territory without
money to conduct its affairs. In consid-
ering this alarming condition of affairs
any honest man and good citizen will
wonder how and why such things can
occur. Both the roads named have been
robbed into bankruptcy by their dishon-
est officials and are now in the hands of
receivers. In spite of depleted treasur-
les and the efforts to reduce the wages of
the poorly paid employees to make ends
meet, these receivers seem to have a cor
ruption fund with which to corrupt legis-
lators and stamp out the rights of com
munities through which the road passes.
If there are any men in Arizona who are
beyond the influence of these corrup-
tionists they should show their hands.
The outrage is a fragrant one and the
United States judges to whom the re-
ceivers are responsible should be &C
quainted with the facts in order that
they may remedy the evil, or, failing to
do so, stand convicted of being parties to
the infamous and illegal proceedings.
