little difference as to preliminary examinations, as justices of the peace have power to make such ex- aminations, and can hold offenders to appear in the United States court, when there is one; but in extradition cases and cases under the Chinese exclusion act there Is no such power reposed in precinct courts. (And it maybe, under the state constitution, there are no such courts until the legislature prov ides them.) So everything of that nature will have to hang until com- missioners are provided by a con- firmed and qualified United States judge. And in smuggling cases those arrested and held by justices of the peace may have to await a long time before facing a United States judge and grand jury.
 Under the foregoing statement it is apparent that the new state of Arizona faces an interregnum in a very important department of gov ernment.

The surplus promised in the post office department can be utilized to far better advantage in a town delivery than by the proposed absorption through a one cent letter postage rate. The letter would benefit financially a few thousand great business houses well able to pay the rate now charged. Free town delivery would benefit greatly twenty millions of people.
 Let everybody urge along the new proposition.

FREE DELIVERY IN TOWNS.

Elsewhere is presented circular or bulletin from a committee of business men in the East calling attention to bill introduced re- gently in Congress which will pro- vide an experimental free delivery of mails in incorporated towns smaller than those to which that advantage is extended now, and yet are outside of the possibilities of rural free delivery. Of course the experimental service will be made permanent and extended gradually over the entire country.
 Under the provisions of the bill there are appropriated three hun dred thousand dollars to inaugur- ate the experiment and determining the practicability of establishing mail delivery in every incorporated town, village or borough in the United States having a second or third class post office, with a popu- lation of one thousand or more at the last general or state census. The bill provides letter carriers in such towns, at salaries of $500 per annum during the first years ser vice, to be raised to $720 the second year, and in no case is the remun- eration to exceed $900 where the annual revenue of the office is less than $6,00O.
 The bill should be enacted. It bears a benefit that would be far reaching and of great value to large part of the population of the entire country. The bulletin to which this article calls attention states that in the city deliveries forty-six million people are served, and twenty million by the rural deliveries. There must be fully

AN INTERREGNuM PENDING.

If there prove true the reports that the certain appointment of Governor Sloan as United States Judge in Arizona will be held up in the Senate and defeated if pos sible, which will cause many days of delay, if not weeks, there seems pending an interregnum in the United States courts in Arizona, and nearly all United States busi- ness will come to a stand.
 Under the territorial system the justices of the supreme court are judges also of the district courts with the power of United States judges in their respective districts. Under the State government now coming in they are supplanted by the justices of the supreme court in their appellate capacity, and as judges of njsi prin8 courts they are superseded in the counties of their respective districts by the superior courts; and their power as United States judges passes with the ex- tinction of their offices under the territorial form of government.
 In every county of the territory there are United States commits sioners who were appointed by dis trict judges, whose offices become extinct also. Without qualified United. States judge to appoint other commissioners those offices will remain vacant. Were Judge Sloan appointed during recess of Congress he could qualify upon his. appointment and hold the office without confirmation until adjourn sment of the next term of Congress. But as Congress is now in session, if appointed, he must be confirmed before he can qualify. And, az stated, if his confirmation is op- posed in the Senate, as promised, Arizona may remain without a United States court or commission CTS long time.
