THE LEGISLATIVE WAGE SCALE.

Prayers for the success of Delegate Smiths bill, increasing the compensa- tion of Arizona legislators will be ut tered by most AriZOnians as well as by all ambitious and prospective Arizona statesmen. Ten dollars a day is not too much. The present wage rate for law making S4.0O a day is too little While by strict economy the legisla- tor can withstand the wolf at the door his weaker brother has not suf ficient resisting power to withstand the wolf reinforced by the blandish- ments of the man who wants a bill put through and is willing to pay liberal rates for overtime.
 There are several kinds of men who will serve in the legislature at S4 a day. One kind is the man who ac- cepts the office as a public duty and is so situated financially that he can undertake it's performance. Then there is a man who is covetous of what looks to him like a great honor. Then there is the other kind who ac- cepts the place with it's meagre sal ary trusting to that providence which tempers the wind to the inadequately clad lamb. His trust is not misplac- ed if he keeps his eyes open and that is whct he does.
 The first kind of a legislator is apt to be a useful one at any salary. The second kind is of a mental tempera- ment which makes him a cipher and the third would better earn his salary by remaining at home beyond the reach of temptation. There are many well qualified Arizonians who cannot afford for four dollars a day to neglect their business at home and spend legislative session at the capital. Ten
