The most strenuous fight in either
branch Of the general assembly so
far has been on the Hydrick bill in
the house to require that crop shall
be up and growing at the time mort
gage is executed thereon, in order to
make the mortgage valid. "A large
part of. two days. session Of the
house was taken up in the discussion
of this bill, its advocates urging that
its passage was necessary in order to
perfect the repeal Of the lien law and
its opponents urging that it would de-
stroy the credit Of the poor farmers.
The bill was killed, after discussion
which threshed out the whole lien law
system, and which brought forth
soma 9ery strong speeches.

It is hardly probable that the stat
US Of affairs Will be changed very
much by the introduction Of the pro-
posed bill by Senator Smith, of
Hampton, providing for a license sys-
tenn. It is rot likely that any new
system for the control Of the liquor
traffic will he inaugurated at this
time. It seems to be a question OF
letting the matter alone or Of pass
ing the Statewide measure. AS mat
ter Of fact, only six counties in the
State are directly affected one way
or the other. thte others now being
legally dry.

High Citizenship
 of Arizonans

Among the testimonials to the qualifications of the citizenship of Ari- zona for statehood may be mentioned the recorde ol the criminal courts. It has been marked by some recently that the crowding criminal docket at Tom pstone should not be too promi- nently referred to in the newspapers for fear of misleading eastern people e to the regard of Arizonsns for law and order. The fact tha. the crimi nal division of the court bss been de- cidedly effective in di.posing of offend. ers during the last two terms is one of the best advertisements Cochise conn- ty cen boast. Crime dees not aourish in this part of Arizons ss it would if the courts were less aggressive. That Ari1ons's reputation for law and order is appreciated beyond the cohnss Of the territory, is shown by the follow. ing complimentary observation in the Fl Paeo Times:
 "There is ore thing that csp be said in favor ol the men who compose Arizo as juries. and that is they be. lieve in panishment for crime. A persusl of court records All over the new state will convince anyone that Arizona criminal, are getting just wha. they have coming. and it i. e condition that reflects CD all Ari- zons."
