THE GOVERNORS MISTAKE.

Governor Franklin has aroused a storm of indignation in this territory by his reply to the question of the New York Journal as to how many volun- teers Arizona would probably supply in case of war with Spain. The gov ernor replied: q do not believe Ari- zona would furnish a single man in case of war with Spain" Commenting on this, The Journal said:
 We believe the territory is anxious to secure admittance to the Union as a state, but surely a formal statement by it's governor that there is not one man within all it's borders ready to volunteer to defend the Union against foreign foe is poor recommenda- tlon for statehood. Is Arizona a con- munity of poltroons or of Spaniards?
 We do not hesitate to say that Ari- zona would furnish more than it's quota of men in case it became neces- sary to defend the Stars and Stripes against Spain or any other country It is charitable to suppose that the gov ernor was not feeling well when he made his surprising statement.

part of the supreme law of the land. To congress it confdes the tremendous power of declaring war. But we do not know whether in the constitution the legislative department can find authority for compelling the president to recognize the existence and receive the envoy of a government which he has officially pronounced non-ex- istent, unless it be in the general welfare" clause, or in the clause which empowers congress to punish "Offen- ses against the law of nations" Either MT. Call or MT. Chandler is quite capa- ble of arguing that the war now being prosecuted by Spain for the suppress sion of the insurrection in Cuba is an Offense of that sort, and therefore a case within Congress's jurisdiction.
 If MT. Olney's view of the where abouts of the dividing line between the powers of the president and the congress is mistaken, he errs in the company of some of it's most distin- guished predecessors-Wil H Seward for one. We reproduce here a dictum of that great secretary, quot ed in the Washington dispatches: "The question of recognition of foreign rev olutionary or reactionary governments is one exclusively for the executive, he wrote, "and cannot be determined internationally by congressional ac- tion"
 Luckily the advices from Washing ton warrant a hope that the mischiev, | ous Cameron Cuban-recognition reso lution will be knocked on the head by the houses foreign affairs commit tee, if it survives the post-recess de bate in the senate The almost un hoped-for development of conservative i sentiment in the membership of the popular branch of congress is one ot the cheeriest signs of the times.

 | Dr. Mair, who has been nominated moderator of the Established church of Scotland, and Professor Davidson, who has been made moderator of the Free Kirk, were both born in the same year at Buchan, in Aberdeenshire went to the same school, were gradu- ated in the same class at the Univers- ity of Aberdeen, and will be put at the head of two great divisions of Scot tish Presbyterians on the same day.

 Somebody has been Investigating the relations of the number 13 with the career of Nansen. Among the facts he presents are the following: The ex- petition at first numbered twelve men, till thirteenth was picked up in a port on the way north; no one of the thirteen, however, lost his life. On March 13, 1895, Nansen decided to leave the ship himself and press north with one companion. The Tram struck a southerly current on January 13, 1896, and on August 13 she gained free water and Nansen reached land again. On February 13, 1896, the false report was telegraphed that he had been seen in Siberia. Three times were filters of thirteen pups born in Nansen' S pack of Esquimau dogs, though it is rare that more than six appear in a litter. And finally it is said that just thirteen publishers attempted to se- cure the publication of Nansen's book giving his report of his adventures.

MEN AND THINGS.

Henry Doel who is now an innkeep- CT in Plymouth, England, is said to be the oldest actor in England. He is nearly ninetythree years old, and was on the stage continuously for sixty five years.
 Henry Barnard, the well known edu- cator of Hartford, Conn.,, who was the originator of the Connecticut reform school bill adopted by the legislature in 1888, will be eighty-siX years old on January 24.
 Dana Pala native-born priest of India, who is travelling throughout this country in the interests of the Mana Buddh society, organized to in troduce and promote the spread of Buddhism in America, is the guest of the Rev. H. NJ. Simmons, pastor of the First Unitarian church, Minneapolis.

OBSERVATIONS.

Even kindness itself sometimes has it's penalty.
 Every person who signs his full name is not necessarily a full man.
 It is not until a man reaches thirty that he begins to wrap the small bills on the outside of the roll.
 When man tells you he likes to work, you may not say to his face, but you think it just the same.
 It is an easy matter to get your fel- low men to speak well of you; all you have to do is lie down and die. Many a man natters himself that he is a devil of fellow simply because he goes about with eleven breath.
 Many a man after marriage wishes he had one-tenth of the money he fooled away on other girls, to buy a baby carriage with.
 When a woman tells her husband that she wants to have plain talk with him, it means that she wants him to confess something.
 When a man comes home from the club at a. m and his wife tells him to come straight upstairs to bed, she is asking the impossible.
 Statistics show that seventy-five per cent of male criminals are unmarried. This goes to show how many men pre- fer the penitentiary to matrimony.

CUBA IN CONGRESS.

The secretary of state has suggested to the excited senators, in studiously courteous language, the advisability of mlnding their own business. The rec ognitlon or non-recognition of the Cuban insurrectionary headquarters as an independent government is, he sug gests, the presidents business. The constitution having confided the decis- ion Of questions of this class in the first instance to the executive. any resolution on the subject that may be adopted by the congress will be in the nature of unasked-for (though weighty) advice. AS legislation it will be "in- operatlve'-so much blank paper. The president may act upon the advice thrust upon him, or he may quietly ig- nore it, at his discretion.
 We observe that the senators con- cerned have not received MT. Olneys suggestion in a kindly spirit. Some of them describe it as a defiance" of congress, and hint at the possibility of another impeachment trial MT. Mor- gan of Alabama says the Cuban reso- lutlon-once 1t is passed over the veto will be law, and the president will nave to obey it. "A threat of such ob- structlon,' he says, ''only insures firm and decisive action by congress-" MT. Chandler of New Hampshire is start led and shocked. He brushes aside the reasoning of the secretary of state as preposterous. ITO intimidate con- sress, he says, 'the president plays the role of Andrew Jackson" MT Call of Florida announces his inabili- ty to accept MT. Olney's view. Con gress is still the supreme power in this country" he says.
 If by supreme MT. Call means om- n1potent-in the sense in which the British parliament is said to be om. n1potent-Mr. Call is mistaken. He is mistaken, anyway. The supreme power in this country is the people ot the United States.
 Now the constitution confides. ir terms, to the president the power ot making treaties with the advice ant consent of the senate and (with thai advice and consenD of appointing am bassadors, ministers and consuls. | says that he shall receive ambassadors and other public ministers. It make. him the responsible agent of the peo pie for the management of their for eign affairs, associating the senate with him, for specified purposes, il the discharge of that duty. It also re quires him to take care that the law! be faithfully executed. It says furthe that all treaties made under the au thority of the United States-tht treaty with Spain, for instance-are

We do not subscribe to the opinion advanced by some of our Democratic contemporaries that the legislature this winter will enact drastic laws against corporations doing business in this territory. The agencies that Ari- zona needs most if she is to have, a healthy growth capital and immigra- tion-will not be invoked by laws aimed directly at capital. We trust the governor of Arizona is not unmind- full of this fact.

DIVORCE LAWS.

The matrimonial scandals resulting from the laxity of the laws of marriage and divorce in some of the new west ern states have brought forward again the plan for the enactment of a feder- al divorce law Undoubtedly such a law would be very desirable; but an objection which cannot be overlooked is that congress has no authority to undertake such legislation. The con- stitution will have to be amended be- fore this becomes possible and this is an operation which takes time.
 There is really no more objection, on the ground of state rights or local self government, to the regulation of mar riage and divorce by federal law than there is to the enactment of a national bankrupt law Indeed, the advantages in each case are very much the same. But in the absence. of constitutional authority on the part of congress, and which the evils of the present lack of system are increasing every year, it would seem advisable to push forward the endeavor to obtain con- current legislation in the several states which shall regulate marriage and di- vorce on the same lines throughout the country.

The New York Herald thinks it knows that Senator Sherman is to be secretary of state in the Mckinley cab inet. Also that in this Cuban busi- ness the president-elect very much appreciates the action of the foreign re- lations committee and is thoroughly in accord with the views expressed by President Cleveland in his annual message" It gets this last interesting news from a senator.

The official returns from South Da- kota show that Bryan won by the mar row margin of 1S3, while McKinley's plurality in the neighboring state of North Dakota approximates 6,000. When the Republicans divided the ter ritory of Dakota some years ago and formed two separate states from it they thought they were doing a good thing for the party; but if they had admitted it as a single state McKin- ley's vote in the electoral college would be greater than it is and there would be one less Populist governor ill the Missouri valley

A flare and freight" law enacted to suit the enemies of the railroads would not only bankrupt the existing rail- roads, but stop proposed railroad ex- tension.

It appears from the inventory of the estate of the late William Morris, poet and socialist, that he left S260, ,000, and he bequeathed it all to his wife and daughter, instead of dividing it up among his fellow men. It is one thing to preach and another to prac- tice what one breaches.
