The Albuquerque Democrat favOrs retaliation against St. Louis for some real or imaginary grievances and says ''the legislature will do well to repeal the act making an appropriation for the St. Louis fair. There are great many ways in which we could Use the money to much better advantage There are an abunance of good reasons for repeating the law, besides the all sufficient one that the St. Louis papers have treated New MeiXco in such an outrageous and indecent man ner that no citizen of the territory could go to that town without com promising his self respect '

The seventh plank in the democratic platform says: "We favor the amend ment of all laws placing large per quisites in the hands of government officials in this territory and demand that all of such perqnisites shall be covered into the treasury, and fixed salaries created for all territorial ap- pointees and clerical forces, as may be necessarily required for the effec- tive administration of the government affairs pertaining to each department of the same" Some of the very men who assisted in framing and passing the platform providing for the above are now doing all in their power to defeat all legislation under it.

The Journal Miner congra, ulates itself in bringing the democratic ma jority in the legislature to its way of thinking on the statehood question. By a strict party vote the council yes terday adopted resolution favoring the admission of the two territories as one state as a last resort. From po- litical stand point this places the Courier editor on the republican side of the question.

THE LEGISLATURE
Nothing Doing of Any Particular Interest By the TsrritOry's
 Law Makers.
Another Primary Election-A Corpora ton Franchise Tax Bill the
 Principal Measures.

On account of the failure of many members of the legislature to return from their Washington's birthday va cation there was little doing ill the law making body on Monday.
 In the house, Marian introduced a primary election bill, which would be but little if any improvement over the present law. It proposes that the candidates shall not be named at the primaries, but that delegates shall be chosen to county conventions. The primaries of all parties shall be held at the same time and place and under the same supervision. The Australian ballot system shall prevail. Any voter may vote whatever ticket he chooses, but he can vote only one ticket. The voter must also vote in the precinct in which he happens to be registered.
 Another feature of the bill is that the primaries are not to be held at the public expense; that is, they shall not be held at public expense unless the supervisors of a county may order so upon a petition from the voters of the county. In that case the supervisors may exercise their discretion about making the order.
 Marian also introduced another bill providing for supervisor districts.
 Henry of Gila introduced bill re- lating to mines and mining. One was brought in by Mir. Lamont amending the statutes in relation to instruc- tion by judges to juries.
 The most important matter in the council was the introduction of bill by Mir. Ashurst imposing franchise tax upon all corporations hereafter to be formed in the territory. It is un- derstood that this bill is intended to take the place of the Cowan bill now in the hands of house committee to transfer from the office of the secre- tary to that of the auditor the busi- ness of interpretations with all emOlu ments. The Ashurst bill proposes that a franchise tax of s10 be levied upon all new corporations and that the tax so received by the secretary shall be deposited by him with the territorial treasurer The franchise tax shall be placed to the credit of the general fund. It is estimated that the annual s15, 900.

 There was no talk of developments in the matter of the eight hour bill or the woman suraffge bill, but it i, expected that something will occur in the business of prison removal within a day or two.

It may not be amiss. on the part of the Journal-Miner. to explain the snappiness and snarlishness of its morbid contemporary this morning to- wards this paper to state that the edi- tor of the aforesaid m. m. c. claims to have created the democratic platform, hence it is an extremely sensitive sub iect for him. Perhaps after all the Journal Miner had no right to jar its feelings on this subject. particularly as the party manipulators swiped his platform and appropriated it without proper credit.

Several new bills were introduced
 in the house on Wednesday as follows By Collins, to create a legal stan dard of weights and measures; by | Cowan, to correct the errors of the code; by Bernard, to amend the law with respect to the administration of estates; by O'ConneII, to extend the provisions of paragraph 325O relating to the records of mines and mineral deposits; by Page, for the relief of the Arizona Gazette, making an ap- propriation for the payment for print ing the report of the territorial su- perintendent of public instruction :; by Cowan. providing for the removal of children from parents and guar dians who are unfit to have charge of them; by Rowe, providing for fran chise tax of s10 to be paid into the territorial treasury by corporations hereafter to be formed in this terri tory.

 An amendment to the divorce laws, and bill amending the law providing for the payment of bounties for the killing of wild animals were passed by the house. The latter bill removes the bounty from coyote scalps.
 4 bill authorizing mayors and coun- cils of cities to make assessments for municipal improvements was de- feated. It was feared that such law would leave the taxpayers of cities at the mercy of the governing power.
 When the bill to regulate the prac- tice of medicine came up in the coun- cil Ashurst moved that itbe considered engrossed and go to a third reading Corbett moved that the further con sideration of it be postponed until to- day on account of the absence of MT. Packard by reason of illness.
 Ashurst, however, pressed his mo- ton for immediate consideration in spite of the assurance by Judge Kib- bey that he had word from Mir. Pack ard stating that he was unable to be present The motion was lost by vote of to ,.
 Commenting on this action the Re publican says that ''sO far as the medical bill was concerned the vote was not significant, but it was highly significant of other things
 The only other business of the day in the council was the introduction of a bill by Dr. Whiteside providing for the monthly payment of the salaries of county officers, although there were quite number of people pres ent who are interested in the woman suraffge bill expecting that measure to come up for consideration.

OPPOSED TO SUFFRAGE.

The Tucson Citizen is opposed to woman surffage. It argues that ''suf- > frage is a privilege and not a right. It she',ld be conferred on no one who can not-at all times discharge the full duty that a citizen owes to the country. This includes service in the army in time of war, service in the militia, jury service, and all the other onerous duties that often tax physical strength.
 ''The bill granting the right of suffrage to women in Arizona that was passed by the house should not be- come a law. Its enactment would be fatal to statehood. Many of the prin- caal supporters of the statehood bill hiL&e senate would abandon the cause kSona adopted woman suraffge.
 southern democratic senator
 to admit Arizona to the
 territory should adopt
 al, illogical and cranky
 ending the suffrage to -I senate of the United low in constant dread that
 send a woman to the senate. Senate will not care to double its anxiety if Arizona should enfranchise women.
 Refined women do not want to vote. Sensible men have no disposi- tion to extend the suffrage beyond its present limits. The council should show its strength and common sense by propmtly killing the house joke. g
 Ghe above is a very weak argu
 in support of the Citizens
 Its assertion that refined o not want to vote, and that
 Faen have no disposition to
 etbe suffrage are both incorrect. Whie there is a wide difference of opinion on this question refined women'' aud ''sensible men, are found in the ranks of the advocates as well as in those of the opponents, of woman suffrage. They are men and women too who can make a much bet ter argument in favor of their position than appears in the above.

# London, Sept. 3.-The arguments OF
the United States and Great Britain,
based on the cases and counter-cases
IN the Alaskan boundary arbitration
already filed, were submitted during
the day by counsel Of the two govern
ments to the Alaskan boundary COM

8 One of the Canadian counsel said
after reading the American brief that
it was a strong document but he
thought Great Britain had a fighting
chance.
1t is expected that the next meeting
of the commissioners will be brief and
merely for the purpose of organization
and fixing a date for hearing the oral
arguments, though it is possible that
application relative to matters con-
tnected with the general Alaskan ques-
stion may be made at the meeting,
which will be private. 1t will then
be determined if the subsequent meet
ings shall be public or private.

1t is approaching the season of the
year when the question "What shall
we do next? ~ will be uppernost in the
minds of the majority OF the country
residents. Winter is always a dull
time on the farm, but it need not be even
in bachelor s shanty, Anticipation
and participation enter largely into
our lives to drive away ennui. Let us
suggest a week s program for guidance :
Sunday, rest and religious services ::
Monday, home duties; Tuesday, visit
ing; Wednesday,, literary society
Thursday, home entertainment Fri
day, visiting; Saturday, home duties.
This may be varied so as to meet the
requirements of our friends but if fol-
lowed out on such lines the winter will
pass away very pleasantly.
That our school district has been
and is being unfairly dealt with we
are all agreed. We have a teacher
possessing second grade certificate,
who is getting s. per month less than
other teachers holding the same certifi-
cate. This is direct opposition to the
law, which states clearly that there
shall be no difference between teachers
of the same grade in regard to wages.
Since our teacher has law and justice
as we'll as the good will of the people
Of this district on his side we think he
is deserving of his just rights. He has
in his school three scholars from an
other district for whose teaching the
parents pay 45 cents per day OF $S per
month, and surely there ought to be
some provision made that he receive
more, rather than less than his regular
salary. The trustees can be made to
pay the deficiency out of their own
pockets.
