Mr.. CARNEGIE'S OFFER.

Mr.. Andrew Carnegie. who has
many millions. from which other
millions spring annually, who has no
children and no near kin folk, seems
70 be very much in earnest about
founding a national university at
Washington.
Some time ago MIR. Carnegie offered
u President Roosevelt as trustee for
the Nation SIC. 900, 900 in bonds of the
steel trust to found the university. AS
the acceptance of these bonds would
make the Government kind OF
partner in the trust. it was limited that
there were embarrassments In the
wav. and that the gift could not be ac-
cepted.
But lack of persistency was never
a characteristic OF Mr.. Carnegie ana
he comes to the front again with pro-
posal to make the donation $25.ooo,oo
and to nut ii in either cash or United
States bonds This. it would seem, re-
licyes the gift from any objections
that have been urged to it.
We can see no objection to accept
ing Mr. Carnegie's offer now. II he
owes his fortune to anybody he owes
il to the Federal Government, ana
there is a distinct propriety in having
the indirect product of high tariff tax
ton thus applied to public purposes.
Let us have the university by all
means. and If Mr.. Carnegie can be
induced to endow it with $4,000 600
so much the better.

The Star has not yet withdrawn Its
nomination of Colonel Greene for
United States Senator from Arizona.
but we presume that will come later.
Our contemporary seldom appears in
an undignified hurry-unless there Is
A coin attached to a retreating string.
Now. it is to be hoped that
Colonel Greene will dismiss his libel
snit. The Stars apology is ample. 1t
confessed TO stealing the item and that
it was untrue.
Perhaps II Colonel Greene with
draws the suit against the Star, the
Star will withdraw It's Senatorial
nomination Of Colonel Greene, and

REASONS FOR STATEHOOD.

We are surprised that tho lords
burg Liberal. newspapc- that in
variaby brings a high order Of in
tellgence to the discussion of public
affairs, should be guilty of this declar-
alton
One of the strong reasons advanced
against admitting Arizona to state
hood Is that there is no competent men
in the Territory to fill the State Of
fees. This statement Is made by those
familiar with the Territory, and is
based on the history of the Territory.
For fifteen years no man has held the
Office of Governor the full term. Every
one has either resigned or been fired.
Generally those who have been fired
have been relieved from duty because
of the charges made against them 10y
members of their own party. and 1t has
always been claimed that the change
has been made for the good of the Ter
IitOry.
We must assume that our LOrdsburg
contemporary was not in a serious
mood when it mace the assertion
that there Is no competent men in
Arizona This sounds more like the
logic Of the Los Angeles Times than
of one familiar with the conditions
We doubt if there Is political
division of the United States that has
more competent men than Arizona
hese men do not come to the front,
as general rue. and participate in
public affairs, under the Territorial
form Of government. There Is no scope
for achievement. There Is 10 chance
for craftsmanship The Territorial
form Is adolescent and men OF ability
who are capable OF thorough
mastery of public affairs can seldom
be induced to actively participate in
purely Territorial politics.
There has never been a man Cover
nor OF Arizona who would have stood
any chance Of being elected to that
Office by the people. This is one OF the

The matted row way OF raising

FREEDOM OF PUBLIC SENTIMENT.

We learn from a Washington dis
patch to the Los Angeles Herald of the
absolute determination on the part of
the administration to terminate fur
ther discussion OF the Sampson Schley
controversy at any cost" 1t was in pur-
suance of this determination that a
public reprimand was administered to
| Lieutenant General Miles, and presum-
abby with the same end in view the
infamous little Maclay was dismissed
from his job in the Navy Department
II President Roosevelt imagines that
he can stop discussion of the matter,
even In Army and Navy circles, he
has undertaken the most ambitious
task known since Mrs. Partington un-
dertook to sweep back the ocean with
her broom. Great moral questions are
never suppressed The more suppress
sion is attempted the more violent is
the outbreak. and If there is a great
moral question the doing Of justice IS
one Our civilization demands justice
even to the poorest and meanest citi-
zen of the Republic, and nothing can
call ont criticism more than an open
and fragrant refusal OF justice.
Has President Roosevelt SO soon for
gotten the experience OF our sister
Republic Of France in the Dreyfus
case? What a tremendous effort was
made to suppress discussion of that,
A dozen times it was announced that
the incident was closed" and that no
thing further would be done. but over
and over again public sentiment burst
the barriers, as pent-up steam breaks
the fastenings put about 1t. The only
effect OF the French Governments eff
forts to perpetuate injustice was to ad-
yertise it's own disgrace to the civil
lied world.
Such attempts have never been sue
Cessful There was never a more
autocratic government than that OF the
old Mormon Church In Utah-never
one that had such absolute control
over the consciences of its subjects
1t undertook to SUPPRESS discussion of
the Mountain Meadow massacre and to
protect the offenders. 1t seemed to
succeed for a while, but the task was
heyonu it. At length the full details
Of the awful crime were brought to
light 1t took eighteen years to do it,.
bmt at the end of that time John D.
Lee was executed.
Discussion of the injustice to Adj
miral Schley will not be suppressed
It has but fairly begun. Men are just
wakcnng to it. rubbing their eyes and
wondering il they see and hear Alright
Every move that confirms the fear that
tn" administration means to let this
injustice stand will add to the storm
Of protest against it. There is no pos
sibility Of mistaking public sentiment
on this subject. and there Is no pos
sibilty that public sentiment will not
make itself heard.
