The Court Circular announced the ether day that Mrs. Johnson had been privately presented to Queen Victoria at Windsor castle by the wife of the secretary of the United States em- bassy. Mrs Johnson is a niece of President Buchanan, and when he was United States minister in London she (then Miss Harriet Lane) did the hon. ors of the legation. When her uncle became president Miss Lane did the honors Of the White House, where she entertained the prince of Wales dur ing his visit to Washington.
 Lord Rosebsry has found that Lord Beaconsfield mispronounced his own title. According to the same authority he was in even worse plight upon his family name, which he really did not know at all. The name of ''D'Israeli" was assumed by his progenitors, Span ish-Jews. in their gratitude to the god of Jacob for their escape from the in- quisition, and so that their race might be forever recognized" But what was the name that they aban- doned? Nobody really knows. Disraeli once said that his descent was as pure as that of the Cavendishes and it was his own opinion that he belonged to the great family Of Lara.

NOT TENABLE.

The Madrid claim that the protoco
 ather than the equalization should -ontrol the status of affairs in the Phil
 ppines is not tenable. We have sev- sra1 precendents in our own history ,onfrmatory of the opposite view. The .reaty of peace between the United States and England after the war ot 1872 was signed December 24, 1874 Three weeks afterwards the American ..rigate President, when one day ou rom New York. was run down and ;aptured by British fleet On Feb 'uary 20. 1915, the United States fri gate Constitution, commanded by Cap ain Charles Stewart, the grandfather 1f the late Charles Stewart Parnell ought and captured the British fri gate Cyane and sloop of war Levant near the Azores. March g, 1S15- three months after the signing of the treaty Of peace-the American slcop of war Hornet took the British sloop of war Penguin after a sharp action, near the island of Tristan d'Acunha n the south Atlantic. All of these captures were legal, because the com oatants were unaware of the re-estab- ishment of peace. The United States sloop of war Peacock, however, took prize on June 30, 1915, in the Indian ocean, which was afterwards surren- lered. The Peacock's capture was the British brig Nautilus, whose comman- Ter hailed the Peacock and informed of the signing of the peace treaty put the captain of the American ves- iel, who had been long time at sea lid not credit the story, and, after g hort action, compelled the Nautilus 0 strike her colors.

Heretofore the general speech used at international confer ences has been French for many years. Even one important international con- gress, which met st Washington q short time ago, formally adopted the Gallic tongue in discussions The most suggestive feature of the use of English at Paris will be In connection with the concern which Germany and Russia feel in the affair If most of what is accomplished is brought into shape through the medium of English it will be necessary for all the conti- nent to regard the tongue with new attention. It will be the first time. unless we are mistaken, that diplo- macy between two occidental govern ments has been conducted on the con- tinent without the French vehicle of expression.

GOOD MEN WANTED.

The republicans of Maricopa county have an excellent opportunity this fall of electing their full assembly ticket The democratic nominees are nCtOri- ously weak It is evidently the calcu- lation of the democrats that their nominee for the council will be able to pull their assembly ticket through. The load is too heavy, however, for any man to pull with safety to himself. If the republicans nominate the right kind of men this county will have a solid republican delegation next win ter in both the council and assembly. The people are becoming tired of the democratic method of sending "any old thing" to the legislature. The laws of this territory are noted for their discrepancies and contradictory terms. Such looseness is damaging to the good name of Arizona and costly to her taxpayers. These conditions are the direct result of sending incom- potent and untrustworthy men to the legislature, a policy that has been pur- sued by the democrats of the territory for years. The republicans of this county at least have it in their power to change this state of affairs. They should nominate a lawyer of known probity and ability in his profession for the council; another lawyer or two of like qualifications, together with in- teliigent and responsible farmers or merchants should be placed on the as- sembly ticket
 The south side is entitled to recogni- ton in the legislature and we respect fully suggest the name of William Kimball of Mesa in that connection. He is a we'll known republican, well qualified for a legislator, and he would oe a tower of strength to the whole
 ticket in his part of the county as well
 Only the very best men in the party should be nominated for the legisla
 ure If the republicans do this or September 10 they can depend upol electing their candidates.
