No Verde County.

The Pbenix Enterprise has the fol ing consoling paragraph for Mir. Allen, of Jerome, on his defeat in se- curing county division:
 "While H. J. Allen did not succeed in getting county division for Yava- pal he gave the opposition the fight of their lives, and single handed, with out the expenditure of a dollar, other than for necessary incidentals, retired a few ambitious politicians from the active political arena. Much money was spent to keep the old county in tact and unholy alliances were made in the meantime. Mir. Allen does not go home discouraged, however, as incidental measures, such as bullion tax and mine inspector, failed to be- come laws. In fact, many are now of the opinion that Mir. Allen cared less for the Verde bill than for some other bills, and that it was kept to the front only as a blind. He simply relates that story of the woodpecker which lost it's tail but saved its life, to tell how he came out with the Twenty First legislature. All must agree that as a manipulator it is difficult to keeI Mir. Allen located. As single hand ed scrapper he holds first rank"
 As Mir. Allen was alleged to have been an open advocate of the mine inspector bill, it is difficult to set where he has any chance of claiming a victory for the defeat of that meas ure, unless he was incorrectly report ed as favoring it. The fact is there was so much talk about the legisla- tive mule purchase of two years agC that members of the legislature were somewhat "skeery" this year.

A Good Oil Stock.

J. A. c. Freund, formerly with the
 Equitable Life Insurance company, is in town. Mir. Freund has abandoned life insurance for the more lucrative business of oil. He is interested in the Iowa Oil company, company or ganized by business men of Hanford, California. The company has lease on ten acres of land in the proven Kern River oil district near Bakers field and also owns 160 in the Coalin- ga district, also a proven oil field. On their leased land in Kern river they have let a contract for sinking ten wells, one of which is now down several hundred feet and the work of drilling is progressing as rapidly as it can be done. The com pany is offering its treasury stock through Mir. Freund for twenty five cents a share, the par value being Sl.OO per share and the total capitali- zation being only S300,O00. The pro ceeds of the sale of this stock is being used in the development of the com pany's holdings, ample funds for the sinking of the first well having been already received from this source, and it is expected that the well will reach the oil stratum before the 10th of April. Of course as soon as oil is struck the price of the stock will ad- vance, the price thereafter depending upon the quantity of the oil the well produces. Parties having money to speculate with will find this a legiti mate enterprise and one which offers as great a degree of safety as any thing of this nature. The land, as stated, is in a proven district and pro ducing wells are found on all sides of it. Mir. Freund will only remain here for few days.

FINANCIAL AFFAIRS.

Speaking of the present financial situation in New York, Henry Clews financial circular says:
 "We are nearing point at which the money market usually becomes sensitive in anticipation of the dis turbance of loans incident to the April settlements. How far this may affect the stock market remains to be seen. True, the reserves of the banks are unusually low for this season oI the year; but the stock market has now become such an overwhelming factor in finance that its demands command more respect than they have heretofore received. The broad. ening of our relations with the Euro. pean money markets also has an i'm. portant bearing upon domestic f. nance. It has become a fixed factor that we systematically keep consid- erable amount of loose funds in tenn porary employment at London and Berlin; and very slight change in the rate of interest brings immediate relief of domestic wants from our balances resting in these foreign mar kets. These new relations conduce very directly to a steadier movement in the home money market and make it easier for the banks to satisfy the wants of the stock exchange. If. therefore, April settlement should be attended with any disturbance in the stock market, i: may be attributed rather to the intrinsic weakness of that market than to any inelasticity in the money market"

DESERVES A DISAPPOINTMENT.

Friends of c. H. Akers, and they are legion in the territory, are work ing for his reappointment as secretary of the territory. Mir. Akers has given eminent satisfaction in the position, as he has conducted the office in the interests of the public generally, and not for any faction, party or click.
 Arizona has had many good secre- taries, in fact, excellent ones, and it is therefore no disparagement to any one to state that no one has ever occu- pied the position that performed the duties more faithfully than Secretary Akers, or who has given better satis- faction in the position.
 His answering loyalty to his party, on all matters of a political nature, are well known, and he never misses an opportunity to promote the wei fare of the republican party, while at the same time, in the administration of the office of secretary and in the discharge of his official duties, repub- licans and democrats have all looked alike to him, and he has never been charged with partisanship in this re- spect.
 The president has intimated, in the matter of reappointments, unless charges are preferred against incum- bents, that in the majority of cases they will receive a reappointment. If this rule holds good, Secretary Akers will have smooth sailing in the way of securing his Ieappointment as sec retary of the territory. The admins tration of the office has been above re- proach, and it is not likely that any frivolous charges will be preferred against him, as it would only tend to react against the party preferring them.
 In addition to this, Mir. Akers will have such an endorsement for reap pointment as probably no candidate in the territory ever had before.
 MT. Akers' fealty to party, and his active and efficient work for it, as well as the satisfactory manner in which he has discharged his duties in the office, entitle him to recognition in the matter of reappointment, and there is no doubt whatever but they will be favorably considered by the appoint ing power.

NO STATEHOOD IN SIGHT.

Delegate Wilson has evidently come to the conclusion that in the little matter of the admission of territory politics have something to do with it.. When asked in Phenix as to the chances of Arizona's admission, he is quoted as saying:
 "It is my opinion that Arizona will not be a state for some time. I Ihad been promised that the territory should be brought in at this short ses- sion, but they went back on their promise. Even Flynn of Oklahoma has quit taking about statehood; and he told me that there was no use in pushing the matter further. When wanted to know why he said that Mo Kinley advised him to let up on state hood. This is because the republi- cans feel assured that Arizona and Oklahoma will both be democratic states. Hence do not look for any legislation on statehood during Me Kinley's administration"
 As much as the republican party is superior to the democratic party in the management of governmental af- fairs generally, there are some points on which they act practically upon the same lines. It was the policy of the democratic party for years to ad- init DO states that would give repub- icans any political advantage. Re publicans would be more than human if they did not take this question into consideration.
 Knowing that even great senators and congressman were only human beings the same as their constituents, the Journal-Mine predicted after the election last fall that Arizona's ad- mission would not even be considered during the present session. For so doing it was criticized and accused of being opposed to statehood by some and berated by democratic papers generally. Subsequent events, how ever, have proven the correctness of its position.
 The immaculate gall of demo cratic majority in the territory asking a republican president and republi. can congress to admit the territory as a state, in direct violation of prece- dent set by the democratic party is one of the amusing things of Arizona politics, and even a republican advo- cate of admission cannot refrain from indulging in a self satisfying chuckle over the discontinue caused by the refusal.
 That the constitution, which the Hate" legislative council wrestled with in its closing days will not be needed for several years hence is very apparent. In the meantime democratic county officials will have abundant time and op- portunity to improve the respective county governments, particularly in the way of securing assessments show ing something near the real value of assessable property in the territory.
 With three or four mines in the ter ritury not only rated in the aggre- gate, as being worth over S2OO,OOOOOO, but paying dividends on that amount of valuation, and the total tax roll showing less than S30,OOO,OO the natural inference of an intelligent business man in the east is that we do not have the business capacity to manage state. Another session or two of a legislature as profigate in its appropriation of the peoples money as the one which has just closed has been will largely confirm such an impression, too.
