nere lS much taIk or GOVernOr Kibbey resigning. Of his inten- tions in that direction we know nothing. He has made a good gov ernor and, so far as we know, a satisfactory one, but in the event of his resignation being sent in a successor must be chosen. In days agone the present editor of the Post had considerable to do in the way of assisting governors in and out of the gubernatorial chair. We do not know that we can do any thing in the present instance; in fact, we are satisfied to let Gov ernor Kibbey step down an out, unassisted, at his own sweet will, but we do propose to have some say regarding the complexion and build of his successor. For quite a long time we have had sneak ing inclination in the direction of Judge w. F. Nichols, the present Secretary of the territory. It is said, however, that he has repeat edly put aside the proffered crown and refuses to be counted in the line of aspirants for additional White House fayors. Eliminating the Judge, which gave Phoenix the first choice, Tucson is certainly en- titled to come in a good second. Tucson is full of good timber, tall and straight, without knot. In the very edge of the wood stands Gen. Thomas F. Wilson, a man of meny enemies as we'll as of true and lasting friends. He would, we know, be bitterly opposed on per sonal grounds. All admit he would make a good governor, a credit to the territory and people. True. he Is joint statehood man, and on this issue, at this time, the senti- ment of the people of Arizona would, perhaps, not be with him. That he would represent minority of the voting population of the ter ritory is conceded, but how long it would so remain has yet to be de- termineG. If, for the sake of ar gument, we are forced to admit that the existing anti-joint state
 hood sentiment would continue, the situation would be nothing new. So far as Arizona is concerned the minority has, with the partial ex- ception of eight unfortunate years, always controlled the majority. Ask the Hon. Mark Smith about it and he will proudly point to his overwhelming roll of Democratic votes. c. Meyer Zulick was the first governor the territory ever had to represent the Democratic majority. Long before the end of his term this democratic Moses re- presented woefully small minor ity. President Cleveland's second lot of appointees were no better than the first, and again the major ity snitched, switched and yelled, turn the rascals outw And so it has been ordained in the great book that until Arizona shall clasp hands with New Mexico and become an empire Republican state, the minor ity will rule the majority, and Gen. eral Wilson is as we'll qualified to do it as any one. Even his enemies believe he will make a good gov
