THE MOVING HABIT

The star of empire will never find
a resting place until it reaches the Pa
cific coast, and it may even then move
up and down by force of habit. Resi-
dents of Arizona have several times
seriously considered removing the capi-
tai of the territory, and bill is now be-
fore the legislature providing for the re-
moval of the penitentiary from Yuma
to Prescott. Some of the legislators be-
came impatient at the trend of things,
and AspinwalPs movement that the
house adjourn for good" came very
near being carried The reflection that
the appropriation bill had not been
passed, it is said, is all that prevented it.
Assemblyman Barth introduced ] a bill
providing that the legislature should
henceforth convene but once in ten
years, the next session to convene in
1907, and his colleagues passed it. 1t re-
mains to be seen whether the senate
will save the legislature from self-de-
struction.
