It is observed that the Tucson Star has again been overcome Dy the Dues and is engaged in feeling sorry for it. self It is that same old yearning about the land office. that sense Of irretrievable loss that submerged it when the land office was moved from Tucson to Phoenix a few years ago by the government, almost without the knowledge of Phoenix There were then two land offices. one in Pres colt and one in Tucson. They were combined by Washington an1 moved to Phoenix as a central point. Phoe- nix had practically nothing to do with the change; hadn't thought of such a thing until the government suggested the matter-when out of common po- iteness Phoenix made the institution welcome and, to speak honestly. has been glad ever since that the change was made IL has been bette- for the land office and it's patrons. and prob ably has been of some value tq Phoe- nix But Phoenix would never have lifted finger of its own accord. to add another wrinkle to poor old decrepit Tucson or add Q single gray hair to the whitened locks of advancing cen turies.
 Tucson is nice old place. cignified by antiquity and almost deified by its brave battle against the hardships of its natural surroundings. Nature has not been as generous to Tucson as to some other places and in its dOtage the sympathy of Phoenix is extended. Like wise. as the soft answer turneth away wrath. no controversial cognizance will be taken of the following sob by the Tucson Star:
 Tucson intends to be an active claimant for the United States land office. If successful she will be mere ly coming to her own. The land of flee had been in Tucson for twenty pr more years and ought to have re- mained here, and would have re- mained here but for the hoggishness of our northern neighbor. Phoenix. Tucson never sought to take a thing from Phoenix. but Phoenix has over handed and underhanded. through fair and foul means sought t0 concentrate within herself every federal and terri torial office and institution there was or is in Arizona Nothing has been safe from her greedy, grasping and ambitious clutch. Nine acres out of every ten of IoeataBIe public lands lies in counties from. which Tucson is more easily, cheaply and conven- iently reached. In the first place. the land office never ought to have been taken from Tucson. but having been taken. and that, too. wr0ngfullv. Tue son should get busy and see that it is returned Of course Phoenix will put up a strenuous fight to retain her llgotten gains. but she will know that she has a fight on her hands that she little dreamed was coming When the real facts in the case have been placed before the government it will not continue to enforce a hardship on the people who have business before the land office. There is nothing sneaky about Tucson. but the old time apathetic feeling of sufficient for the day thereof has gone from her earth forever. The metropolis of

 It is pointed out that according to the extremely broad and elastic in- depreciation of the courts Co insult means to say or do either in public or in private with or without inten- ton to offend. anything deemed ir- reverent to the sovereign. Thus the person who failed to rise in response to toast to the emperor would come under the provisions of the law as clearly as one who spoke disrespect- fully of him.
 With regard to the English law any improper words used of the sovereign are seditious. In "Archbold." the standard work on criminal law. se- dition. whether by words spoken or written. is described as including any language calculated to bring the sov- ereign into hatred or contempt" anf the offense is said to be committed by any person who gives out scan dalous stories concerning him or does anything that may lessen him in the esteem of his subjects"

Sorbiere was further con- victed of ''uttering calumnies res pecting the personal qualities and the conduct of one of the principal Ministers Of the King of Great Brit ain" The author of this audacious and imprudent satire" was fined and imprisoned and the sale of his book was forbidden throughout France.
 In 1916 General Pinet's "LAngle- terre vue a Londres" was suppressed bv the French police on account of it's libellous statements respecting English customs and institutions.
 The Times in commenting upon the Mvlius case remarked of King George and Queen Mary that "a more blameless pair or a pair more happily mated never occupied the position of King and Queen of this realm" !" The Observer adds that the case might have been put even more strongly. for before the Victorian age the matrimonial record of the Eng fish sovereigns was not wholly ad- mirable.
 "One of the happiest marriages of
