The governor invites attention to the following extract from letter re- ceiyed by him from Hon. Edward Rosewater. chairman of the advisory board of the Greater American expo sition to be held in Omaha during 1899, and suggests that in his judgment it would be beneficial to Arizona for the different associations, societies and boards referred to, throughoJll the ter ritc1y, to interest themselves in ar ranging for representation at the ex- position:
 Tt would be very gratifying to the promoters of the Greater America ex- position to have Arizona amply rep resented among the exhibits. am confident that if you would appoint a state commission made up of promi- nent members of boards of trade, az ricultura1 societies, livestock associa- tions and mining interests, that an ex- hibit could be gotten together and placed here to great advantage. Un- like the Trans-NIississippi exposition, the regulations provide for free space for state or territorial exhibits

SENATOR MAsoN's BREAKFASTS.

When Senator Mason Of Illinois wants to have a quiet little chat with
 a friend he invites him to breakfast. This has been the senator's custom for many years and despite the fact that it is contrary to the social etiquette of the national capital, the senator ad- heres to it. Nearly every morning Of the week he has one or two friends about his breakfast board. Mrs Mas on has her friends at dinner, but the sen at0r rarely gives a dinner party. No one of the senator's friends seems to know precisely why he has cornpan1 at the breakfast hour It is certainly most unusual in Washingt3n, where the population, which takes things free and easy, does not breakfast before 10 or Il o'clock. It has been suggested, however, that Senator Mason's reason for his early morning parties is that after nights refreshing sleep he is in better frame Of mind to entertain his guests, than at night, when fatigued by the days labors.-From a Washington Letter.

Admiral Montojo, who met Dewey at Manila, and Admiral Cervera, who met Schley at Santiago, are to be tried by court-martiaI. It seems like rubbing it in on those two unfortunate gentle men. If the Madrid authorities will lay in a stock of American magazines for the last six months of the year 1898 they may discover just how it happen ed at both places without going to the time and expense of trials. The maga- zine and newspaper writers have told all there is to tell, and they all relieve the two Spanish admiraIs from any re- sponsibility in the respective naval calamities. Cervera and MonGojo were simply outclassed, and were victims of circumstances over which they had ID control.

It is the custom of the English Home office to revise long sentences in the case of female convicts at the end of seven, ten, fifteen and twenty yea s. The present year is the tenth since Mrs. Maybrick's conviction, and the reply of the home secretary to pr. Clark, M P; 1Ir Davitt, M. P, and to Mir. Dalziel, M P, at last summers session of parliament, viz: that te {Sir Matthew White Ridley) was aware of the strong opinion held in America and in England as to Mrs. Maybrick's innocence, also that she had been adequately punished, has led to strong hopes that the ten yeas re- vision period will result in the rele1sa of Mrs. Maybrick, which would cau1e much satisfaction in England as well as in this country.
