TREASURY RAIDERS IN THE
 SADDLE.

'Tis we'll that the intended raid upon the Territorial treasury should be ofli- cially vouched for by the action of the Maricopa Republican county conven- ton, which in its platform pledges it's Legislative nominees to further bleed the taxpayers. In their liberality they would rival son of Thespis, who in the character of Midas, gave away a princi- pality at night and in the morning begged a sixpence to buy a breakfast.
 That declaration of the Maricopa Re publicans is covenant with death, and while that is the case Gila county, through its political conventions of re- cent date, served notice on Maricopa county that she objects to becoming a co-tenant of the same pauper grave.
 Here is Maricopa's new Republican offspring, which should have been strangled in convention, at its birth :
 "We pledge all the nominees of this convention to strict economy in office, at the same time we ask our supervis- ors to maintain good roads throughout the county, and legislators for liberal appropriations to Territorial institu- tions, and especially to our schools"
 In view of Arizona's financial condi- ton, reason stands aghast at the prop osition to further incunber taxable property when one-fifth Ctwenty per cent has already passed beyond the control of the original owner by reason of legislatures having mortgaged it to bondholders, and yet those most inter ested in avertng an additional levy stand in statue like repose, wondering what will happen next, and whether or not upo- the adjournment of the legis- lature hope, with them, will have with eringly fled.
 So far as Arizona is concerned woes cluster; they tread each others heels and will continue to do so unless the several counties will do as Gila has done, resist further fleecing by hang ers-on of legislatures who have an ax to grind.
 Gila county, through her grand jur- ies, her political organizations and the ARIZONA SILVER BELT have erected the first beacon of hope and look to the sleepers around us to rise and assist in dispelling the gloom of distress that surrounds us, otherwise chill penury is ours, as it was with majority of states succeeding "the flush times in Ala bama," when daily bread was scarce, which causes 'the leaves of memory to make mournful rustling in the dark. |"

THE TERRITORIAL DEMOCRATIC
 CONVENTION.

Mark Smith was nominated for dele gate to Congress by the Territorial Democratic convention in session at Williams last Thursday. W. A. Rowe, of Yayapai county, was the only other name presented to the convention. The roll call of counties showed 0 votes for Smith and 32 for Rowe. Upon motion of Mir. Rowe, the nomination of Marcus was made unanimous. Yavapai, Pima and Apache counties cast their ballots for Rowe.
 The platform approves the declara- ton of principles of the party at Chi cago, particularly of the silver clause; indorses Bryan and Sewell; denounces Cleveland for maintaining the gold stan dard, and says there is no escape from the present financial depression except through Democratic success. Dr. T. Shields Collins and P. T. Robertson were selected to represent Gils county on the Territorial central committee.

PUNISHMENT FOR MURDER.

The San Francisco Argonaut truly says: Blindness to criminals is cruelty to the innocent, and cruelty, too, to all who, but for the fear of punishment, would become criminals. The interests of society in the United States at this time demand an aggressive public opin
 ion in favor of speedier trials, the with drawal of the right of appeal in crim. inal cases, and rigorous enforcement of the laws against those who break them. |"
 The North American Medical Re- view, writing on the same subject, says
 "Out of every 75 persons convicted of murder ill this country, only one is hanged. Every year since 1890 the number of murders committed in the United States has more than doubled that year. The number of murders committed here in 1890 was 4,23O; in 1894, $500; in 1895, 10,500." The Review, however, after giving the np- palling record of murders committed m the United States, concludes: Be

the cause whichever one of many it may, it is proof positive that capital punishment as preventive of crime is n failure and should be abolished. I'm prisonment for life at hard labor for the state, without pardon or retreive, would be equally effective aud more humane.
 The deductions of the Review are clearly wrong. Lienency to criminals has ever proved preiudicial to the safe- ty of society, and Imprisonment for life IS not adequate punishment for the beinous crime of murder. The tend ency of the law making power to daily with crime, and the disposition of the executive to condone offenses and grant pardons is a constant menance to law and order and the well-being of the state; and the increasing cost of main taining our penal institutions is also q weighty argument against abolishing capital punishment.
