Official Stupidity.

Somebody connected with the post
office department at Los Angeles has
earned a leather medal of champion
ship size for stupidity, during the past
week. Most of the eastern mail for
Phoenix comes via the Rock Island
Southern Pacific route, and finds it's
way into this town over the Maricopa
& Phoenix line. For quite ten days
the Maricopa & Phoenix has been dis
abled through the flood in the ella riv-
er. Extraordinary efforts have been
put forth to repair the ella bridge, and
owing to the energy displayed by the
management the line will be open for
business today or tomorrow, probably.
But meanwhile, mail has accumulated
by tons at Maricopa the main line
junction point For several days this
accumulation was unavoidable, be-
cause the Santa Fe also was unable to
run trains into Phoenix. But the latter
line has been open for several days.
1t was the duty of the postof1ce de-
partment to ascertain the status of the
repair work on both roads, and govern
itself accordingly. The accumulated
mail at Maricopa should have been
forwarded to Los Angeles, and thence
to Phoenix over the Santa Fe. By
that means an immense quantity of
delayed letters could have been
brought into the Phoenix postohice by
yesterday morning. Indeed we under
stand that the suggestions of the To-
cal postoffice have not been needed in
this respect 1t no doubt occurs to the
responsible party in the department
that to leave Phoenix cut off from mail
facilities with most of the east and all
of southern Arizona for more than a

E Eae CONSUL GENERAL TO USTRALIA
Catarrh Of the Head Which Affected
Hearing Cured bV Pe-ru-Ha.

Mr.. J. Emilio Tanguay, No. 3S2 John
ST., Quebec, is Secretary of the Jacques
Curling Club of Quebec, one of the lead
ing sporting clubs in the city. Its men,
bcrs are composed of young men of the
best families. He writes:
"Last winter I caught a severe cold
which developed into a severe case of
catarrh of the head, affecting my hear
ing especially. My eyes ran. my sys-
tenn seemed to be generally clogged up.
I was advised by club friend to try Pc
runa, and did So at once. TO my delight
L found a change set in for the better
within three days, and in eight days I
was entirely wcll."J. Emile Tanguay.
Mr.. Adolph Kochler, President of the
North Side Turnerschaft, writes from
Clark and Leland Ave, Chicago, H.:
alt is with pleasure that I endorse
Pcruna as first-class medicine espcci-
ally for catarrhal affections of the throat
and lungs. have used it with much
benefit and several of my friends have

Peruna was used. "-Adolph Koehler.

son was animated by patriotic am
bition to protect the horse trader when
he penned his fiery denunciation of
King George III. And no lawyer, from
the year 1879 to this day and hour,
has dared to assert that the constitu-
ton of this union of indestructible
states does not throw its protecting
arm around the trade in horses
1t is true that the statutes, both fed
eral and state. are silent upon the sub
ject, but this silence has been by de-
sign. Law makers have recognized
that some laws, the growth of custom
and the outgrowth of liberty, are
greater than any pronouncement which
can be written into a statute book
They have forborne from meddling
with one of the highest laws OF civ
ilized man. Then why should Arizona
legislators venture in where wiser men
have feared to tread? Do they wish
to invite rebellion and anarchy? Amer
leans are long suffering and law abid-
ing, but they will oppose as one man
such an invasion of their hereditary
rights as is proposed by this bill. The
right to eucher the other fellow in a
horse trade must and shall remain I'M
questioned and unquestionable.
Mr.. Strong has spoken in time. The
will fail to heed at it's peril.

A Philosopher From CochIse.

The Hon. Charles Strong, represen-
tative in the legislature from the coun-
ty of Ccchise, is a philosopher as well
as statesman. Mr.. Strong has raised
a staying hand against the reforming
vandals who would undermine the an
cient and honorable industry of horse
trading. There is pending a bill which
enlarges the scope of the law which
forbids Misrepresentation in the sale
or disposal of property. The alert eye
of Mr.. Strong was quick to detect the
flaw in the bill. While it's authors did
not intend, of course, to strike at any
industry, their failure to grasp the full
meaning Of their own measure ac-
counts for the menace contained in the
document.
Mr.. Strong truthfully points out that
the right to lie and misrepresent in
a horse trade is one of the inalienabIe
privileges of freemen. When the haugh-
ty barons at Runnymede submitted the
Magma Charta to King John, that in
strument had been drawn so broad
that the horse trader was granted a
perpetual license to deceive The i'm
mortal Declaration, while less specific
in terms, was full of the same spirit

The senate committee on public
lands has reported a bill granting to
j. L. Butts a right of way for a trail
through the Grand Canyon, with the
right to build a great suspension
bridge over the main canyon. To build
a bridge over canyon mile deep and
five miles wide would seem to cali for
greater resources than the engineering
fraternity have yet exhibited. The
chances are that neither the enterpris-
ing Mr.. Butts nor the members of the
senate committee ever saw that little
crack in Arizonas soil.

A Judicial Absurdlty.

The house bill providing for super
Tor courts" for the first class counties
of the territory should have extended
| to it the best cold storage facilities OF
the council, If the measure reaches
that body. Nobody representing the
people of Maricopa county wants the
proposed court for this county. The
people of Yavapai and Graham county
do not want it, and we doubt whether
there is any general demand for it in
Pima. Certainly it is not needed in
either of the counties mentioned. The
only county in which there is any pos
sible call for the court is in Cochise
where the business of the district
court is cOngested. And to meet the
difficulties confronting Cochise county
il is proposed to saddle a useless bur
den upon all the counties of the first
class.
If for no other reason, the bill should
fail because it proposes a judicial alb
surdity. In the five counties of the
first class il proposes to have two
courts of concurrent jurisdiction-the
present district court and a supe-
rior court. Take Maricopa coun-
ty, for example: We should
have two trial judges, each in
dependent of the other. On important
questions, like water litigation, they
might render decisions directly con-
trary to each other in interpreting the
law. The only result would be to null
tiply litigation and the expenses there
of, pending appeal to the supreme
court
1t is now suggested. we believe, in
order to overcome the objections of the
counties which are included in the bill
regardless of their wishes. that the
question of establishing these courts
be left to the people to decide at spe-
cial elections. There is no reason why
the people should be subjected to the
expense of such elections.
A ready solution for the whole diff
Guilty would be found in a statute au-
thorizing the judges of the other dis
tricts to hold court in Cochise while
the judge for that county is holding
court elsewhere in his district It
would be unjust to enact a mandatory
law In this respect. but law merely
authorizing any judge from another
district to hold a special term i'm any
county upon request of the Judge Of
that district, would meet the situation
The matter would then be adjusted be-
tween the judges themselves. Upon
finding that his brother judges
would have a few weeks leisure the
judge of the Second district could no
doubt arrange for a special term at
Tombstone to be held by one of them
A law of this nature could do no
harm, and it would serve as an excel
lent makeshift until congress gives us
an additional judge-whieh it proba-
bly, will co within a year

PHOENIX, ARIZONA. FEB. H. 100
Thanks to the Affidavit Club.

President Roosevelt's nomination Of
Edwin A. Tucker of Nebraska to be an
associate Justice of the supreme court
of Arizona is already drawing forth
adverse comment, and when the ter
ritory generally is heard from there
no doubt will be a chorus of objec-
lions. on the ground that the home
rule" principle has been violated SIM
liar objections have been raised dur
ing all the history of this territory,
whenever an outsider was appointed
to an important office here. And in
the abstract these complaints are well
justified. There is plenty of sound ma
terial In Arizona to fill all the federal
offices to the complete satisfaction OF
our citizens.
But while presidents of the United
States are freely criticized for appoint
ing non-residents to Arizona offices.
our people seldom have an opportunity
to hear a presidents side of the story.
The truth is that the activities of the
affidavit man furnish largely the reas-
ons why Arizona men are not uniform
" appointed. The Affidavit club sits
in continuous session. 1t is rare, in
deed, that home man can run the
GAUNTLET of an appointment at Wash
ington without being treated to the
favor of atfidavits certifying that he
should be in the penitentiary. Some
times national administrations get tir-
ed of such tactics. 1t is natural for
a president to say: well, if you peo-
pie cannot present a man without a
blemish for my consideration, l know
where 1 can find such a man. I'll APP
point from the outside a man whom
I know to be all right"
The great body of our citizens are
punished, in fact, because of the 1erni-
cicus work of a few knockers. As TO
appointments to the judiciary, it would
be easy for unprecedented residents of
the territory to pick out lawyers who
would be an honor to the bench and an
honor to the appointing power. We
have bar which contains some strong
lawyers. But what successful lawyer
is without enemies? And in this ter
ritory it is considered the special duty
of a mans enemies to see that he IS
duly dubbed at Washington when his
name is suggested for office.
And from Mr.. Roosevelt's standpoint,
much can be said from successful eX-
pertinent. On his own motion, after
being pestered acutely. he sent enc of
his friends here as chief justice of the
territory. His selection of Mr.. Kent
for that office was received with much
disapproval, until the new chief Justice
became known. He speedily proved TO
be a favorite with bar and people, he
IS now "one of u.s. as a permanent res
ident, and everybody admits that the
president made a superb choice.
We know little of Mr.. Tucker. 1t is
greatly to be regretted that home
man could not be appointed to succeed
Judge Davis. But our Washington
dispatches say that Mr.. Tucker las
a high standing at the Nebraska bar,
and it is needless to say that he would
not have been nominated had Mr..
Roosevelt not known him to be OF good
judicial timber.
The people Of Arizona have the
knockers to thank when non-residents
are appointed to our federal offices,
and we shall not have home rule"

THE "MIRTH CURE"

A Partisan physician has founded an
"mirth cure" for dyspepsia, and re-
ceives a large fee for treating patients.
He puts a number of them around a
room and makes them grin at each
other. All look so foolish that in time
they get to laughing heartily, and are
made to keep it up for two hours a
day. Two weeks of this treatment is
said to cure the worst case Of dyspep-
