Record of the Late Legislature

The Bisbee Review expresses the opinion that, "when the record of the Twenty y-second legislature is digested by the people it will be more popular than now.' This is possible on the theory that the record might have been worse, and that it was not very much worse was due to the com oination in the council that prevented great deal of legislation that would have been prejudicial to the interests of the terri tory.
 The worst feature of the record of the Twenty second Is the fact that prac. tically all the bills introduced appro. priating money, or increasing the ter ritory's. indebtedness, passed both houses, with the exception of the bill to establish manual training school at Prescott, and the failure of that meas. ure in the council was responsible for the pocket veto by Governor Brodie of the bill establishing like institution in Graham county. Had those two measures become laws, as the plotters had reason to believe they would, the territorial tax levy would have been the same as it was last year, viz. Sl.13 The present estimate of this year 8 levy Is Sl. .O95, which taxpayers will consider sufficiently high.
 Neither does the legislature deserve any credit for the reduction, as the de- mands on the treasury as result of the late legislative session will be as great, If not greater, than they were in the past two years. The explana- ton of the expected reduction in the territorial levy IS found in the fact that the levy last year was unnecessarily large and left a surplus in the general fund which it is proposed tv apply to meeting obligations incurred by the Twenty-secoud legislature, which was no less extravagant than its predeces- sor, as the Review will discover upon investigation.
 The fact is that our legislatures are subservient to the demands of the ter ritorial institutions located in five diff terent counties, each of which elects representatives to the legislature for the avewed purpose of securing fur. ther appropriation for its pet institu- tion, whether needed or not, and combination of these interests is sulfi ciently strong to get what they want, and they do not hesitate to punish those who oppose their unreasonable demands. There appears to be no hope of escape for the taxpayers from this biennial holdup as long as our public institutions are so widely scat. tered. If they were grouped in two, or at most three counties, they might then be eliminated as controlling fac | tor in legislation, and their more eco nomical and efficient administration | assured.

Refunding the National Debt

Secretary Shaw has announced that he will resume the interrupted process of exchanging ? per cent consols due in 1880 for the per cent bonds of 1907 and the 3 per cents of 190S-19lS as fast as these latter are presented to him. As the consols are put out at 102, and as the owners of the 1907 and 1908 bonds must put them in at price that will net only 2i per cent per annum for the time they still have to run, there is profit to the United States on the transaction.
 Against this there is the distinct disadvantage for the country that in place of bonds which it could pay off and retire in few years, it will be saddled with an outstanding loan, amounting in all to possibly $775, 000- GOO, which it cannot pay off until 1880.
 The only excuse for such an issue is that it provides a steady basis for the national bank circulation. The ly comment to be made on the excuse is that it is pity that this country's currency system is so lame-legged and addle-pated that national debt has to
 
 be maintained for its benefit. The United States has per capita debt very much smaller than that of any other world power except the German Empire, but that is no reason why it should be perpetuated. - Chicago Record Herald.

Copper Situation Strong

Despite the lower quotations made on the New York metal exchange for copper, the United Metals Selling company is reported to have sold more than one million pounds of copper last Thursday at 15s cents. The American Metal Market says there are apparently two markets on copper, one made by the large producers to the large con sumers and to the foreign buyers for export. These prices are made deliv- cred to points of destination.
 The other market is that in which speculative lots are bought and sold. These sales are for delivery in New York, and do not interest the ordinary large consumer who buys for delivery at his factory.
 The producers have not m de any change, and apparently are taking no notice of what is going on in the spec ulative crowd either here or abroad. They are heavily sold ahead on the pro- duction for some months to come.

 which certainly speaks highly for his ability as newspaper publisher. The future of Douglas is assured, and we hope the Daily Dispatch will share largely in the prosperity that is des- tined to come to that town and section.

The point in Mrs. Maybrick's case is briefly this Either her conviction was righteous. in which case there Is no req sonable ground for her release, or it was unrighteous, in which case she ought to have been released long ago. Eight years ago the chief justice of England wrote that she should not have been found guilty and the fact that the judge under whose direction she was convicted died not long after iu aD insane asylum, gave ground for the be- lief from the start that she was inno- cent. The promise of her release next year seems tardy requital for long iniustice

ment is that they refuse either to take the oath of allegiance or to sign dec- laration accepting the position of sub jects of the king. But as these require ments were not exacted of the armed burghers who surrendered, it is difficult to understand why it should be made a pretext for retaining these men in cap tivity.

Prosperity for Globe District

ioi cfstif~t
 It Is no exaggeration to say that the future of Globe mining district never looked as bright as it does at the pres eut time. The camp has had its ups and downs ever since 1t was established, in 1s76. Tbe tide of prosperity has risen and ebbed, and the periods of re- cession have often been so long as to discourage the hope of any enduring expansion of the mining industry. At times the Encouragement has been great, yet there were never lacking in the community those saDguine spirits who believed thoroughly Tn the merits of the district and whose faith gave encouragement to others, and served to lend confidence to capital to exploit our mineral deposits.
 Many of those sturdy pioneers have crossed the divide without realizing their expectations of witnessing and sharing in Globes final triumph. Others of us, imbued with equal con fidence, are beginning to see the fruition of our hopes.
 This feeling of confidence, too, is more general than ever before, and Is builded on more substantial founda- tion. The deep shafts on the Old [ ominion, United Globe and Copper Hill mines have penetrated the zone of permanent ores, and in the lower levels there have been encountered strong veins of copper and iron sul- phides, being in the Old Dominion especially, of great proportions and very rich in copper. These develop ments have given confidence to the owners of adjacent claims and have attracted new capital to the district, and as result working shafts are being sunk on four other properties, with view to their thorough develop ment.
 The commencement of work by the Old Dominion company on four compartment shaft, to be carried to depth of 1900 feet, and the prepar- atlons making for the erection of modern smelling and concentrating plant, the cost of which improvements will be nearly half million dollars, is, perhaps, the most convincing proof l of the great value and extent of their ore bodies.
 In the western part of the district, | also, there is a gretify ing revival iu mining, stimulated by the advance in price of the metal The Black | Warrior company has made an i'm portant addition to their fine plant by l the construction of 300-ton teacher, and will resume the production of | copper within few weeks. The Key | stone mine, owned by Finletter & Harvey, in the same locality, continues to produce rich copper ore, while the prospect of the successful development of the Lost gulch gold belt is good, and in the Mineral and Pinto creek region the Arizona Hancock Consoli- dated and the Mercer Tunnel company are steadily prosecuting development.
 Globe district is one of the largest mining district in Arizona and, also, without doubt, one of the richest. Af- ter many years of slow growth, its merit is beginning to be widely recog. nized, and given a year of uninter- rupted progress in the development and equipment of her principal mines, Globe will have been started upon an era of expansion and prosperity to which there will be no end in sight fol the present generation of her people.

dicapped by poor management Men
who are versed in exploiting leg shows
are not qualified by experience, or

thermore, his management stupidity
brought him over in an old play that
