The Twentieth Legislature Has Passed
Into History.

A gentleman who is posted on
Legislative matters and who was in
Phenix during most of the time the
legislature was in session, in con-
versing with a MINER reporter, had
the following to say in regard to
the session of the Arizona legisla-
ture:
The legislature closed its labors
on the morning of st. Patrick's
Day, and the members comprising
that body, were, perhaps, no better
or worse than the usual makeup of
like legislatures throughout the
country.
The legislature was nominally
democratic-8 to 4 in the Council,
and 13 to II in the House Party
ties held just for only a few days,
when those masquerading under
party names, at the touch of the
corporations fell down and hence
forth worshiped at the golden shrine
of the trusts.
Neither party should be strictly
held accountable for the failure of
the legislature in not passing better
and wiser laws.
Before half the session was over
it became manifest to every one
that one third of both houses were
in the grasp of the railroads, and a
lesser number bore the colors Of
other and powerful combinations
and trusts.
Good measures were stified in
committees-gnod laws were killed
in open session ard the friends of
the people had to struggle with all
their might against the boldest and
most shameless lobby that ever
the halls of legislation
in this country.
1t has been SAID that "the trusts
are stronger than the state, This
was ever visible during the days of
the legislature, for whenever a bill
was introduced limiting or confin-
ing the power of the corporations,
or kindred institutions, the lobby
became animated; the traitors and
tools Of corporate power mingled
together in open defiance OF COM
mon decency, bargains were con-
sumated and Doodle handed over
in the light Of day to the sneak
thieves and scoundrels by TIE
bosses. who gloried in the traffic of
lebauchery and corruption. While
many of the dupes and rascals are
known to the public others who are
40 less guilty as bribe takers can
1ot conceal their identity very long,
md should they ever aspire to an
official position again, their true ,
status in the ranks will be fully ex-
posed.
Had it not been for the honesty
md integrity of some representa-
ives, especially in the upper house,
certain individuals, trusts and cor
,orations would not only now
'laim all the lands of the territory,
'ut every avenue leading to every
industry within the borders of Ari- !
.ona.
AS "looker on" l may further,
n the near future, cast a search
light over the acts and doings of
he Twentieth legislature of Ari-
ona.

cost of 25,000$ will be largely the
gift of Miss Helen Gould. Two or

ORE View of IT.

To the Editor Of the journal and Courier:
The common law Of England always
governs in this state in the absence of
statutes enacted by the legislature. This
English system of jurisprudence de-
cares that "a thief caught in the night
season in committing a theft or larceny
may be lawfully killed by master or
servant, and also upon refusal to sur
render and restore at the time of the
theft the property and chattels that have
been purloined." The poultry thief was
in the lawful custody of Mr.. Clark as
much so as If he had been in the care
of a civil officer, and when he jumped
from the wagon he simply took the un-
certain chances Of escape and lawfully
met his death at the hands Of his GUS
todian.
1t is we'll known that a presentment
of the case must be made before some
tribunal 1t would no doubt be best
for Mr.. Clark to have all the facts
brought before grand jury for official
notice. They would, in my opinion, ac-
quit him and at the same time commend
his action. c. w. B.

BIG CLASS EXPECTED.
Entering Glass of Yale VIII Doubtless
be Larger Than Last Years

| Entering Class of Yale Will Doubtless
be Larger Than Last Years
Yale men are arriving in New Haven
| slowly and from now on the number
will steadily increase until the recitation
halls are thrown open and the men re-
sumo their studies for the college year
OF 1899. 1t is not known exactly Wheth-
| er the incoming class as whole will
| be as large as last years, but 1t is the
general opinion of college men in New
| Haven that the class will be trifle
larger than the one entering in 1898. One
of the professors said yesterday after
noon that he had understood that the
total of the Sheffield and academic de-
partments would be about three or four
men larger than last years entering
class, but taking in consideration all
departments of the university, the in
coming class would be no larger than
usual. The incoming class at Sheffield
will have the largest increase and it
Will be seen that that department has
kept up its gradual growth, which be-
gan about fifteen years ago.
The new Alumni hall, which will be
erected on College street, between Grove
and Wall streets, is attracting much
attention from alumni.
President Hadley said yesterday that
the exact site of the new alumni hall
had not been decided upon as far as he
knew, excepting that it would be on
College street, somewhere between Wall
and Grove streets.
President Hadley did not know how
many of the present buildings would
be torn down and said that the land
would be left in the hands of the archi-
tect and that the exact position would
be announced later.
The president thinks that the incom-
ing cl9ss will be larger than ever.
Many preliminary" members of
the class of 1908 are already in town
with their fond mothers, engaging
rooms for the college year and fitting
them up with all the necessary furni-
ture, pictures, Yale sofa pillows, flags,
ETC., which are absolutely necessary in
the minds of many, in order to obtain
the best results, both in study and So
ciety. The conditioned students and
all those having examinations to pass
will have a chance to redeem them
selves on Monday, Tuesday and We'd
nesday, September rs, 26 and q, the
dates set for the final entrance exam
nations and any that have to be made
up before college opens.
The results will be announced to
those taking final examinations Satur-
day, September 80, which is shorter
period than ever before.
Chafip1d entrance ava iJ1o tiope
will be held in Winchester hall and the
academic examinations, as usual VIII

Court Notes.
The opinion of the supreme court in
the case Of Deputy Sheriff Higgins VS.,
Lawyer Paul Russo, wherein the officer
recovered from the lawyer the amount
OF Judgment received against him in
the court OF common pleas for trespass
IN serving writ under Mr. Russos in
structions. has just been sent down by
the supreme court reporter, and estab-
fishes the responsibility of a lawyer to
an officer In serving process.
Judge Hall, after reclting the facts in
the case, concludes: Under the cir
cumstances the attorney is justly re-
garded as having personally requested
the services rendered, and as having di-
rected the plaintiff to take the property
attached. He is, therefore, liable for
the consequences of his acts. one of
which is the legal inference from these
facts of promise to reimburse the Of
ficer for any loss suffered by having
taken the property of the wrong per-
son."
The opinion in another New Haven
case-that of William Fl. Goodrich VS..
George Alfred-was also received yes
terday. 1t was an appeal from judg-
ment of non-sult in the court of COM
mon pleas, which judgment was af-
f1rmed. The questions raised were I'm
der the practice act, and the points de-
cided are summarized as follows:
l. An order striking a substituted
complaint from the files furnishes no
ground of appeal after a second sub
stituted complaint has been put in.
2. A consent 'to the filing of a sub
stituted complaint as provided by the
rules Of the practice act by the plain
tiff" refers only to its being received
after the regular time fixed by the
court,
g. A judgment entered after plain
