Mark Smith in Washington

The Washington Post of August l has the following:
 Looking as brown as berry, and the picureo good health. Hon. M. A. Smith, delegate in congress from Arizona. stood in the lobby or the New Willard and chatted with friends about a recent visit to the home or his birth, in Bourbon county, ken lucky.
 MT. Smith owns the homestead that his fathers grandfather settled upon, and the house that his ancesxor built in the latter part of the. eighteenth century is still standing in fair state of preservation. The. fine old estate is one of the historic places of Ken lucky, and from the date of its set tlement has never passed out of the ownership of one of the n1ale heirs in direct line of succession It is tn the heart of the blue grass region, and more than a century of cultiva- ton has not exhausted the fertility of the soil.
 MT. Smith will shortly go to Europe for the summer. He will not be a candidate for congress this fall.

Congress Has Full Power to Deal With Territories as 1t Deems Best-AbsoIute Authority

Best-Absolute Authority The following Arizona incident H. lustrates very strongly the insecurity oI territorial laws and points it's own argument for statehood The Pros pector extracts the following from the Oasis court proceedings in Judge Davis ruling on the application to enjoin the county of Santa Cruz from making a bond issue to build a court house.

 This is an application to enjoin the board of supervisors of Santa Cruz county from issuing and selling bonds authorized by congress to pro- ing the acp.
 taxpayer is concerned. that is not ma -orial to the issues involved.
 So far as may be concerned the power of congress in territory, there is no doubt that congress has plenary powers Congress can render valid any act of a territorial legislature. and it can render void valid act of such a legislature. By a simple en- actment of no more than three lines. congress could render null and void this entire code of laws, (holding up copy of the Arizona codes). The power of congress over territory Is absolute. and it has been held that should it decide to do so. congress could sell the territory of Arizona 70 the republic of Mexico"
 The injunction was denied.

The work of the Economic league in
 winning the primaries in this city yes terday speaks for itself, and very little comment is necessary. Although the
 opposition claims two wards out of the five, it will avail them nothing, even
 though the delegates from the second
 and third should not throw their votes to Charters. What Mayor Kilduff's object was in putting ticket in the third ward is hard to understand just at this time. Perhaps the mayor looks for trouble in the convention and he would like to be in position to have something to say as to whom the nom 1 nation for high sheriff will go. The result, however, was a grand victory l for the league, and it showed to the ! people of Waterbury that workingmen can unite and win out when the occa
 sion calls for it. and if ever there was "a time when such a victory was q ne eessity it was in the preliminary strug

The discrepancy between the receipts and disbursements of the treasury de partment continue to be serious source of annoyance and anxiety to the officers Of the administration, writes Washington correspondent. It was ex- plained that there would naturally be q deficit in the month Of July because of unusual expenditures arising tfrom the new contracts entered into i'll ae- cordance with the appropriations Of congress. But August has shown no diminution of the deficit. As a matter of fact. the expenditures provided for by congress have hardly begun. Plans are being prepared for the host of new buildings authorized in the omnibus public building bill and bids are being received for sites, but so far practical ly no money has been expended and will not be until the contractors begin to bring in their vouchers. With ithe knowledge of the actual facts at their disposal, it is not surprising that the president and his advisers are de pressed by the showing.

Probably no more difficult situation ever confronted an aspirant for cleo ton to the highest office i'll the land than that which now confronts MT Roosevelt. Although he deftly re- trained from melting the last congress to action against the trusts, beyond T few perfunctory recommendations in his first message, his Independence day speech startled the proprietors of the octopi and they quickly made it known that campaign conducted along the lines laid down on that occasion would receive no support from them. Re publican politicians promptly notified the president that he must adopt a more conservative tone in dealing with the trusts, the alleged plans formulated by the president and Representative
 Littlefleld of Maine were immediately
 hushed and little more was heard ln regard to the trusts or the modification
 of the tariff with view to their sup pression until the Iowa republicans met and adopted a platform inimical to the interests of the trusts magnates. sec. retary Shaw then went to Oyster Bay and conferred with the president, and l it was given out after his visit that he would voice the sentiments of the pres l ident on the trust and tariff question l during the campaign.

We do not know who sent out the political news from this city to the state papers Saturday, but when the editors of those papers read the Wa terbury papers to-day and then con suit the columns of their Saturday editions, they will come to the conclu- sion that they were gold-bricked. Ii the Associated Press is responsible they should ask the managers of that concern to get after the Waterbury man that made fools of all the editors If they copied from Waterbury's morn ing paper, then they will say to them selves hereafter anything clipped from that paper should be accompanied | by a veracity voucher.
