Governor Sloan on Arizona.

To show tho uniform prosperity of the United States, Munsey's magazine in it's last issue printed interviews with the different governors of the states and territories. Among the list a short article by Governor Sloan of Arizona. which is as follows:
 "The year 1910 promises to be the most prosperous in the history of the territory. In the first place, we shall be admitted as state. This will give an impetus to business and attract immigration. In the second place, our mines promise to exceed the pheno- menal production of 1909. Many new fields are being developed and many new properties will enter the list of producers. In the third place. the government projects. and particularly the Roosevelt and Laguna dams with their auxiliary power plants, will De completed. and 100000 acres of land, capable of supporting directly and in directly as many people, will be served thereby. Our fertile soil. our wonder ful climate, and the variety and value of our horticultural and agricultural products are beginning be appreciated by the investing public, and, better still, by the homeseeker. Railroad facilities are being enlarged, and better and more equitable rates are being es- tablished. Arizona is on the eve of a wonderful development"

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Many Con-
gressmen are deeply concerned regard
ing the proposed Federal Incorporation
act. They are all fearful that the rights
OF the States to incorporate business
concerns. may be Invaded TO such an ex-
tent that the revenues the common
wealtEs 10Y derive from incorporation
fees may be materially reduced. In the
cas- of New Jersey should the proposed
act result in a general curtailment Of
the number of corporations formed. ii
would prove. a serious matter in the re-
ductios1g of revenue.
1t is understood, however, that while
the act viii provide for national incor.
poratiop 1t does not propose TO make II
compulsory by any means. In the event
Of a corporation preferring to conduct
its business under the State aw 1t vii

adhered to there will. of course, be nc
injury to the income New JERSEY nov
derives from interpretations. 1t may be
however, that some of the corporations
working under the New JERSEY law
might find 1t advantageous to incor-
porate under the national law, should II
become effective, but there is little pros
pect that there would be a great loss to
the State On account OF the new ma
fional law.
Present and former postmasters in
New Jersey have beer importuned from
time to time in the last ten years
to communicate with Harvey Spaldins
regarding an adjustment of salaries
This has been especially true of post
masters who served prior to 1880. II
was represented to any of the former
pcstmasters hat an adjustment of back
salary claims would show a consider
able sum to be due them. Naturally,
Mr.. Spalding, in his circular, which
was gotten up in alluring terms, agreed
to prosecute these claims for q con-
sideration, Invariably on the basis of rs
per cent.
Senator Penrose; of Pennsylvania, de-
nounced what he called these efforts
to mislead the postmasters and former
postmasters, and has presented a state
lnent to the Senate showing the ainoun'
actually due postmasters in accord witt
an act approved in March. 1888. The
Jerseymen entitled to money are given
