WE NEED A CAPITOL.
Reasons Why the Legislature Should be
 Sustained by Congress.

There seems to be 8 slight spirit of opposition to the act of the nIne- teenIh legislature in approprialing $l00,OO0 of bonds, running fifty years, and drawing five per cent in- terest annually, for the purpose of erecting a capitol on the ten acres of ground adjoining the city of Phenix;
 There are several reasons why good citizens should unite in press ing the enterprise. First it wIll take out of politics pro- life source of bad feeling and cor rupt Legislation. Second, 1t will provide safe place for the federal and territorial books and records. At present they are scattered tn SIX different parts of Phenix and kept in wooden desks and boxes. liable at any time to be stolen or destroyed bv fire. The only office that has an iron safe K that of the secretary. The governor, auditor, board of con trol. treasurer, the attorney general and federal courts ali keep their records and papers in unprotected desks. It IS criminal carelessness to continue this condition when there is a way out of the difficulty, which the legislature has wieely provided.
 Third, the act provides that all the money derived from rents shall be turned into the territorial treas- ury, and applied to the interest on the bonds. Betwecn S4,0OO and S5,- 00O IS now paid annually for rents by the federal and territorial gov ernnents, so no additional burden will be added to the taxpayer.
 Fourth, the territory held, since July, 1889, deed for the ten acres of ground adjoining Phenix, con tainlng a clause that in the event of them not being used for capitol purposes, they should revert to the grantors. These grounds have be come valuable; $sSO,OU0 would be a low estimate ot Their value. The members of the committee of the legislature in considering the Ap- pTopTiation informed the gTantoTs of the tract that If au absolute decd of conveyance was made without any reserve. they would make the appropriation. The owners of the site, relying on the good faith and integrity of the legislature, and the people, did make tue deed of con- yeyance and parted with ali theIr interest without any possible means of recovery. The territory can if it wishes defraud the creditors of the consideration and keep the land. Governor McCord m hts address the night of the receptIon, spoke brave words, denouncihg every form OI repudiation, anal was greeted with hearty applause. There Is not a fair minded mau in Arizona that thinks the congress of the UaIted States will toe a party to an act Ol periidy in permitting the repudia' ton of th's suicmn agreement on the part ot the legislature, and rot'- bing the owners of the site of land and capitol.--Pneuix RepublIcan.

The Bohemians have a proverb. Every fish has another for prey" '" The wells (silurus) has them all. This is the largest fresh water fish found in the rivers of Europe ex. cept the sturgeon. It often reaches 5 or 6 feet in length. It destroys many aquatic birds, and we are as sured that 1t does not spare the hu- nan species. On the Sd of July. t700, a peasant took one near Thorn that had an infant entire in its stom- ach. They tell in Hungary of chil dren and young girls being deyonred on going to draw water. and they even relate that on the frontiers of Turkey a poor fisherman took one that had in its stomach tho body of $ woman, her purse containing gold and a ring. The fish is even reputed to have been taken 1e feet long, Harper's Round Table.

A NOTABLE DINNER.
Big AIIzsnass Hold a Happy Rs-union
 Last EVsaing.

There was a no, able dinner given
 last evening at the California Clnb
 to Chief Justice H. C.. Truesdale, of
 Arizona, fy the colony of nabobs in
 this city, nen who were once of the territory which the sun kisses some times with blistering results. The distinguished guest of the evening was received by Hon. M. H. Sher- man, who was the master of eere- monies; as befitted a man who, aftgr wrestling fortune from the sands of the desert, has successfully meas uTed strength and intellect with the adroit 6nanciers of the world.
 There was John Norton, who used 10 rule Fort Grant and ot her things. whose vivacity and wit were features Of the evening. or course, his old associate, Nj. W. Stewart, was near him. Judge Bicknell was not an ATizonan, but he is jolly enough at a dinner, aud cordial enough at his office to rank as one, so be was there.
 William Hood. though sorely afflicted with Blephare Spasmus, as diagnosed by Dr. Ainsworth. who was at his side, having built most of the railways of the territory, was seated above the salt. The doctor has cut of more arms and legs in the territory and lost fewer patients than any ten surgeons. 90 his title was clear. Judge J. D. Pope, who got all the treasure out of Big Bug district; c. R. Drake, who is the king, commercially, of Tucson; Ben Goodrich, the former dean ol the Tucson bar; Judge c. +. Ainsworth, who gives the Phenix people gas, water and street car, throwing in the air free; J. A. Muir, who super intended the Southern Pasife at Tucson; Frank Cox, who is a Phenix notable of high degree; those two little fellows, A. A. and F. M. Wig more. whose business interests in the territory ara Brobdignagiar; E. F. Clark, who won his financial spurs when he was auditor of the territory; Captain William Banning, M. Fl Sherman, J. A. Gibson, R. D. Clark and w. J. Trask were among the guests.
 A good timei We'll. just scan these names. They gre those of men, big usn, good men, jolly men, men who love each other, and that describes the dinner b. tier than could be done in four columns of detail.-Los Angeles Express, Aug. l2th.
