ROME, April 24.-The propaganda
has decided to propose to the Pope that
ne appoint the Very Rev. John j.
OConnor, Vice Vicar General and at
present administrator OF the diocese,
Bishop of Newark.

OConnell. president of the american
college in Rome, has been selected as
the Bishop Of Portland. Maine. His
olhcial nothination viii ~ made known
through . papal brief.

1t is probable that an operation will
be performed in the hopes of having
his reason restored. The clue as to
Mr., Mertz's assailant is too slight to
warrant an arrest, and so the punish
ment of the guilty party or parties will
depend on the recovery of his reason.

The Arlmex Consolidated Copper company Is being extensively adver-
 tised. One of our Wash IT IS ington exchanges con HALF ARI- tains three columns of ROMAN. advertising which prob
 ably cost for a single in sertlon not less than $500 Local inter est in this advertisement rests upon the circumstance. as might be sur missed from the conglomcrate name of the company that It Is In some way connected with Arizona. The adyer- tisement states that the company is q consolidation of the Oxide company which owns the Copper Prince group of claims in the Silver Belt district in Pima county. this territory: the Tab!e Mountain company. owning several claims in the Bunker Hill district in Plnal county and the Angang com. pany, whose properties are situated in the state of Michoacan, Mexico. The capital stock of the company Is S5,000.- 900, divided into shares of s25.
 This Is a corporation of which we have now heard for the first time and stock for investment or condemn 1t. Gentlemen who happen to be In the city say they have never heard of the consolidated company and have never heard of the properties described above except in the most general way that corporation called the Table Mountain company was working In desultory fashion upon some claims of unknown value lying a few miles east of the Ray mine. According 10 the advertise men the operations In this territory are under the supervision of Charles H. Dickey. the president of the com pany
 The Mexican properties consist in rart of old mines worked long ago by primitive methods and abandoned. The superintendent. it is stated, has "un- watered the shafts which leads to Il hope that the stock of the company may never require unwatering. How ever worthy this enterprise may be 1t Is our opinion that the stock will not ba seized with the avidlty with which 1t would have been snapped up, say two years ago, before the edge of eastern appetite was dulled by Spenazuma stock. and especially before it was sa- tiated by the stock of the Arizona Eastern and Montana.

and to replace those abandoned" Mir.

What ever else the cadets may have thought that ''the spirit of the institution" re- quired them to do. 1t is conceded by every one that thls spl,it requires them to toll the truth and keep their word They will do 1t. too.

So complete has brsn the dem' onstration that those who have hither- to maintained this procedure now vol untarlly abandon it. and pledge their word not to reproduce 1t in another form. This ts the snd of the matter. The result desired has been secured without coercion and without de- lay. The death of Cadet Boos some time after he had withdrawn from the military academy-which was the pn- mary cause of the investisatiOn---has not been clearly traced to the treat report to congress of the state of the case will satisfy every public require ment. There is no occasion for ner- vousnsss or rhetoric on one side or the other.

The proposal of Mir. Kimball of Gra- ham county to reduce the mileage al
 lowed sheriffs' officers and constables
 will not. We fear. encounter the ap- prevail of the persons whom it will af- feet if 1t should become a law. The reduction would amount to IS cents a mile and in the course of year it would cut a great figure with the army of sherlffs. deputies. constables and their deputies, who travel in the aggregate far enough to girdle the globe many times every year. The present rate of mile age. 30 cents. or IS cents each way. Is about Ghree times the railway rate. Mir. Kimban's bill proposes to reduce 1t to 1 cent more than the railway rate. Efforts to reduce fees have sell dom been successful in Arizona legls- latures, so there Is no strong reason to believe that MT. Kimball's bill will pass. Mileage, It Is argued, Is merely mileage. fee, and was never meant to be understood to have any reference 10 the cost of transportation; that the difference between 1t ana the actual cost of transportation is one of the of office. This view is sus- tained by the circumstance that in the matter of the mileage of congressman there is no relation between the rate and the rate of the railways and water routes over which they travel.
