The appointment of the Hon. Edward


Kent of Colorado to be chief justice of
Arizona can in no way
THE be considered a refiec-
NEW CHIEF ton on the incumbent.
JUSTICE Judge Street, the new
appointment taking eff
feet upon the expiration of Judge
Streets term. Having been en-
tirely exonerated of all the charges
made against him, Judge Street was
satisfied with his complete vindication
and was not a candidate for reappoint-
ment He will retire from Office with
the consciousness that there is no stain
on his record, with the knowledge that
he is regarded by the people of this ter
ritory as one of the ablest men that
ever filled the territorial office of chief
Justice and that he carries with him
the appreciation and good wishes of
the best citizenship of the territory.
Judge Street retiring voluntarily, the
president has acted wisely in refusing
to appoint resident of the territory
to the vacancy, for it became evident
some time ago that no local aspirant
could command the united support of
the bar and people, and any appoint
ment of an Arizona candidate would
have brought in its wake a lot Of
heart-burnings and jealousies. The
presidents best friends in the terri
tory agreed with him that if it should
become necessary to name a successor
to Judge Street the new chief justice
would better be a NONRESIDENT
Moreover. the president has made
happy selection. The Republicans adj
vices are that Judge Kent is an ex-
ceptionally able lawyer, a man of alb
solutely clean character. and of the
best antecedents. He will meet
hearty and sincere welcome from the
people of the territory.

matters so that friction and disputes
will be avoided in the future. Although
there has been more or less contro-

THE HASsAYAMPA RIVER.

This is the way the legend runs;
Somewhere beneath Arizona suns,
Floweth e river. bright and clear,
Famed for its waters far and near.
Many a tale of 1t is told,
For many have quaffed its waters cold
And all return with a story new.
Each swears by the gods his tale is
true.
Deeds of valor in search of gold.
Visions of tabled wealth untold,
Jewels and treasures beyond compare
And perils only the brave would dare
They have paused a moment on the
brink,
And tasted the rivers sparkling drink,
Never again, so the stories tell,
Can they escape from it's wondrous
spell;
Saint or sinner, graybe1rd or youth
Who drinks the water cannot speak
truth.

This is not gentle word-but when
YOU think how liable you are not to
purchase for IS cents the only remedy
universally known and u remedy that
has had the largest sale of any medi-
cine in the world since 1868 for the
cure and treatment of consumption
and throat and lung troubles without
losing its great popularity all these
years, you will be thankful we called
YOUR attention to Boschee's German
Syrup. There are SO many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
others that are cheap and good for
light colds perhaps, but for severe
coughs, bronchitis, croup--and espec-
tally for consumption, where there is
difficult expectoration and coughing
during the nights and mornings, there
is nothing like German Syrup. Sold
by all druggists in the civilized world.

Regulation Of Joint Stock Companies

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
For the information and protection of the

quire all corporations selling stock to pub
lish in the newspapers itemized statements
showing their assets. liabilities. receipts
and expenditures. such statements to be
similar to those now required of national
banks. On request Of stockholders. or
when deemed necessary for other reasons
these statements should be verified by gov
ernment inspectors; and this should be
done entirely at the expense Of the corpor-
ations Investigated. It would not be nec-
essary to make these provisions applicable
to corporations whose stock Is neither sold
to the public nor listed on the exchange.
As It Is now, persons ION the inside" and
others with exclusive information have an
unfair advantage In dealing in stocks. II
