The Phoenix Enterprise in its re- port of the proceedings of the pres cnt legislature gives the following which shows the sentiment of the members of the lower house upon the matter of that system of bribery car ricd on bv means of ''courtcSieS" in the way of passes over the oailroads:
 ''In the house one of the most in- tereSting proceedings was the defeat of the bill making it a misdcmeanor for any public official to accept q free pass from any railroad and for any person to tender such pass. MT. Webb stated that, right or wrong. he wanted to be consistent and he did not think it right for d legislature that had accepted passes to pass d law denying succeeding legislatures the same privilege. Mr. Wilson said he did not know that there was any that the present legislature had received passes. Mir. Webb re- piled with q smile that he had cvi- dcnCc that one member had accepted Il pass. Mir. Wilson then stated that he had evidence that one member had not travelled on q pass. Judge Neville announced that he too knew of one member who had accepted a pass. but he added that the railroad companies could not bribc him with pass. He said that he believed in fora%ing on the enemy aS much as possible. It iS not known whether the house could be bribcd with passes or not. hut the vote showed ma ior- itv willing to accept them"
 The members of the house could not have made it plaincr that they are controlled in the enactment of laws by the railroads of the territory. Their action as set forth by the En- tcrpriSe says in effect we are the grabbed" and we are pround of it.
