Building the Canal.

Work on the Enterprise cana
has begun in earnest. Quite a
number of men and teams are al
work at the head and have ALREADY y
made considerable progress.
What was supposed to be ths
great stumbling block in tho way
of the building of this canal, was
the heavy rock work at the head
1t was thought it would be necos.
sary to blast cut through almost
solid rock to depth of % feet and
about 1000 feet in length. Since
the work started it has been dis.
covered that instead of a cut to be
blasted 20 feet deep it is only IL
feet deep. Tho balance can bs
easily removed with scrapers.
1t is time now that everyone in
terested in the construction of the
canal should 60 to work.

GOOD FOR ARIZONA.

"The goldite press takes excep-
tion to the suggestion OF few
democratic papers that Bredic be
appointed governor of Arizcns.
From partisan standpoint, il is
to the interest of democratic papers
that Brodie bo not appointed gov
ornor; for, 80 long as Murphy
newspapers and Murphy heelers
ride the neck of the republicans OF
Arizona, SO long will republican
voters vote democrats into office.
These are the cold facts. The
Courier first suggested Bredie fol
governor, because il had the wei
fars of the territory at heart. Few
democrats would vote for Brodle
Tor governor # the matter was to
be settled by votes of the two
parties; but We are all for him un
der present conditions as the best
hing to be done. Brouie was de
feated oy the crowd which herded
him from the time he reached the
New Mexico border until they
found he was of no more service to
them. As partisans, democrats
know that il would be bad for the
democratic party to put Brodie in
to the governors chair. Az pat
riots, we know that il would be
good for Arizona. 1t will be no
ticed that those papers known a:
direct Murphy organs are the mos
sgitated over the proposal to make
Brodie governor. Of course, W,
all know who pulls the string wher
they dance. 1t would, of couase
be the irony of fate for Brodie t,
supplant as governor the very maj
to whom Brodie owes his defeat il
the recent campaign, as Brodie is
man to whom Murphy was resll,
opposed, but who was put up be
cause the Christy wing of the rt
publican party would not stan

THE Bullctiu says there is dif
ference of opinion as to whether
anyone will be declared elected tc
the office Of district attorney. We
fail to SEQ whore any conflicting
dpinon can exist. The duty ofths
Board of Supervisors in the matter
is very PLAIN. All they have the
power to do is to count the votes
and declare the people elected for
whom the largest number ofvotes
were east. They have no power to
pass on question flaw If thcre
10 any question as to the eligibility
70 hold office Of any one elected it
ID a matter that only the courts can
settle, for il comes entirely outside
OF the powers Of the Board of Sup.
efsisors. When they convene next
hoa Day they will simply count the
votes and declare those elected who
receive the largest number. This
seoms TO be plain enough for any
