THEY CAN'T HELP LYING.

(Raton Range.)
The enthusiastic and harmonious Re-
publican territorial convention held at
Socorro last Saturday so completely dis
credits the scare head predictions of the
Democratic press of the territory that
hereafter it will be a difficult matter for
such papers to convince their most cred
ulous readers that any of their state
ments are worthy of belief.

The Iowa legislature has voted down
a Measure to have presidential electors

such a law We're enforced generally it

THE SPtAktRSnIP.

Although it has practically beeh agreed who shall be president of the council in thecomings session of the Arizona legislature, the ques- tion of who shall occupy the i'm portant position of speaker of the assembly has hardly been men toned. The. democrats have a large majority in both branches of the legislature and of course a dem ocrat will presideof both branches. Perhaps of all the members of the assembly none are better qualified for speaker than Andrew Kimball, of Graham county. He is a man of intelligence, with 2 splendid knowledge of parliamentary law, having had long experiencein pub lie meetings. He is the president of the St. Joseph stake of the Nor mon church, including all lthe mem bers of that religious sect in Gra- ham and Cochise counties. These people have done much towards retaining Arizona from the desert and the election of Mr. Kimball s speaker of the assembly would be a fitting recognition of a people who have done much for Arizona and for the democratic party in the territory. Like the vote of the "solid south the Mormon vote in Arizona can always be relied on for the democratic ticket. Presi- dent Kimball is a progressive citi- izen and has given close study to

AT TIE DOOR.

The Minneapolis Journal makes the following comment concerning Arlzona in its issue of November 28th:
 The report of Governor Mur- phy of Arizona to the secretary of the interior renews his arguments for the admission of the territory to statehood. He says. in part:
 The progress of the territory in population, wealth and the devel- opment of her mineral resources has been remarkable. The rapid ity with which Arizona has davel- oped from a primitive frontier re- zion into one of the most progress i've, enlightened and law abiding communities of the union is with out parallel
 "The spiritof fairness so promi- nent in our national character would no longer permit Arizona to suffer the wrongs of territorial vas soIageif the territory and its people were properly understood and ap- preciated, Arizona has over l00,- GOO people and one hundred mil lions of taxable wealth, if it were all assessed.
 Every argument and principle which should in justice and right be considered in connection with the admission of the territories rests simply upon their ability to maintain themselves as states and the desire of a majority of their peoplefor self-government."

/ TIE Flagstaff. Gem says: We are opposed to the removal of the penitentiary at this time, as the territory has enough of indebted ness without creating more, Let the legislature legislate for the general good of the territory and not for nor against certain Iocaii
 ties" The Gem is very correct. This legislature will have enough to do without considering the old bones of contention of the past which includes prison removal, county division, and the bullion tax law The latter is manifestly class Legislation and besides could not be made so as to apply an equal burden of taxation on those who are engaged in the mining indus try, because bullion Is produced by some at a great profit and by oth- CTS at very small profit, and still by others at no profit at all, Coun- ty division is not needed and when ever it occurs somebody will suffer and no one will be benefited. ex- cept perhaps, individual politicians here and there. There is no good reason for removing the peniten- tiary now, or in the future.

WILL ARIZONA BE TURNED DOWN?

If Oklanoma and New Mexico are admitted to the union at this session of congress it will be hard for that body to deny admission to Arizona. Arizona gained lO4 per cent in population during the last ten years, according to the census, while New Mexico only gained in population about 30 per cent. There is no section of the union more prosperous today than Ari- zona, and every. industry is on a solid and growing basis. The min ing industry during the last five years has made wonderful advance ment; new mines have been dis covered, new camps have been
 established. while the older camps, especially where copper Is the ob- jdctive metal, have expanded. La bor has been provided for thous- ands of men at good wages. The agricultural industry i'll Arizona has about reached the limit of pro gress until water is provided by storage for its irrigation. True, in the Gila valley in Graham county the farmed area is to be increased somewhat by artesian water, but that will not amount to a great deal, as the most of the land under the artesian wells recently started flowing there is already provided with water from canals But, with Q storage system inaugurated by the government the possibilities in agricultural development in Ari-
 zona can hardly be imagined by the most sanguine citizen of the territory. The cattle industry of Arizona will never grow less as the herds occupy a country that can never by utilized for other than grazing purposes. With the in- crease of population in Arizona has come q worthy. and energetic citizenship, thoroughly alive to the opportunities here and who will

A WAsHINGToN dispatch says a recent cabinet meeting was largely devoted to a discussion of the que5- tion of coinage for the Philippine islands and asa result it Is probable the secretary of war will request "a hearing before the committees of congress. Nearly all of the busi- ness of the islands is transacted In Mexican dollars and the army com missaries and others supplied with United States money are at times greatly embarrassed in making purchases from the Eilipinos by the fact that knowing nothing of our money or its value the latter often refuse to accept it, The proposition which seems to have met with favor by the administra- tion is to purchase silver bullion at the present market price and coin it into distinctive dollars having a gold value of 50 cents each. These dollars will probably contain little less silver than the present stand ard dollars. The scheme has not yet been worked out in all of it's details.

OUR PROPOSED NEW SUPREME
 COURT.

Delegate Wilson introduced bill in congress last week, providing for the creation of 8 supreme court for the ter ritories of Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma. This bill is in accordance with suggestions made through the columns of the territorial press re- gently. The present supreD courts of the territories are composed of the several district judges, which makes it necessary for the judges of tue supreme court to pass on the decisions of their associates on the bench and the large number Ot affirmed cases has raised the suspicion among the bar that no matter how conscientious these judges may be there is a danger of the prev alence of the policy Of "you tickle me and I'll tickle you" in passing on the rights of litigants. Another thing in Arizona, at least in this district, judges have not the time which ought to be at their disposal for supreme court work.
 The bill we believe is n good one and if we are not to have statehood at once then we hope to see the new supreme court created.

THf CANTEEN SYSTEM KILLED.

When the bill for the re-organi- zation of the army passed the lower house of congress last week an amendment was added to it hy the decisive vote of l59 to 5l, prohibit ing the sale of any intoxicating liquors in army posts, At present and for number of years army posts have had the ''canteen" or place where beer, cigars, tobacco, groceries and other articles of mer- chandise was sold to the soldiers. These canteenes were managed by the officers of the several companies or troops occupying the posts and whatever profit accrued to the busi- ness was divided to fund in each company which was used from time to time for providing luzuries to relieve the monotony of the reg ular soldiers 'bill of fare" We believe those who have made the war on the army canteen were con scientious in believing they were doing the soldiers a real benefit by closing the canteens, but it is open to serious question whether they have or not. The soldiers are like any other class of people
 miners, cowboys, farmers or me chanics; some drink whisky and beer and others do not. Under the canteen aystem the soldier when he drank did So under the eye of his superior officers and was there by restrained from excess. With the canteen hog ranches" could not thrive to any degree just out side of the reservation line Close the canteen, and the hog ranch will begin todo business on a large scale again as they did before the canteen was conceived. At the
 hog ranch" the soldier is away from all restraint because of the nearness or presence of the officers of the post and he goes the whole hog" The REVIEW desires to see the soldier discouraged from ex- cessive drink, if possible, but we fear the destruction of the army canteen will not accomplish any thing in this direction

IN the following the Lordsburg Liberal makes just complaint against freight arrangement be- tween the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe railroads, as follows: '"Fhe Santa Fe road and the South ern Pacific have got what they call traffic agreement, by which all fast freight that the Santa Fe road has for the Southern Pacific isde- liyered at Houston, instead of Deming. It takes several days longer to bring freighthere by this way than it did by DPfning. This delay does not add to the flavor of eggs shipped from Kansas, which are from nine to twelve days on the road. It IS probable that the railroads have the right to carry freight over any road they see fit, but the users of perishahle freight in this section of the country do not like the delay, but none of them know that they can do any thing, unless it is to ship their goods by express, and this is lit tie too expensive
