 It is admitted that for the last two years real estate values have been depressed but there is every indication that they will rise a solid than ever and that they will so higher they have been before. Phoenix was never in so good a shape it is at present. It has been getting into this shape during the last six months and it is certain that great building will soon be here The active real estate market the substantial basis will be ushered in.

One of them is the remarkable development of the Egyptian cotton industry which will quad ruped this year in comparison with the volume it last year. A main line railroad is than ever In fact, it may be said be imminent In this view it would be strange if the people of school dis trct should consent to sell this very valuable prop erty for this proposed sum, valuation based the real estate depression of the last two years
 But the sale of the property for the purposes of civic is entirely matter-whether 1t is sold to the city and county the city alone for this any other sum- for such a sale would really involve transfer of the property at all It would only be putting the property to a different use the best possible the in the that would yield the greatest profit to the school district which is substantially. the city.
 It should be understood though that the status quo of the school property be preserved Something must be done with it. Money must be re- aized for it. for the school district in urgent need of money Beside it would be good business to let the property lie idle indefinitely has lain for the last two years

 But Springfield isn't satisfied with what it has done to honor its greatest New evidence of this is found in the fact that the Plymouth Congrega- tonal church has shuffed off that title signifi- cant of religious liberty in America though it is and incorporated the Lincoln Memorial Congre- gational church. More than that 1t has begun d campaign to erect handsome church building which will be another monument to the great states

The Campbell Hunt Decision

The Republican never shared in the impatience with which the people of Arizona generally awaited the decision of the supreme court in the Campbell Hunt mandamus case The decision generally anticipated. One did need to be a learned lawyer to feel sure the decision would ultimately be ln favor of Governor Campbell We suppose the members o the conrt entertained no doubt that point from the time the case closed and if decision had then announced it would probably have been as to the result the same that of yesterday.
 But in a case of so much importance there could be nothing in anyway resembling an off hand deci- sion. There must be an elaborate reasoning leading up to the conclusions of the court and the opinion we believe will be regarded most elaborate one It is in itself law filling loose places in our statutes which gave rise the circumstances that made this utigaton possible This law will stand until it is dis placed by statute.
 The court might have said briefly that MT. Camp bell was the de facto governor That would have been the law as to the Campbell Hunt controversy but 1t would not have thrown any light on future similar case What court says is of less importance than why it says it
 The public business has not been impeded by any delay Employees of the have suffered some but not serious inconvenience couple of pay days have been missed but nothing has been lost. All needfu business has been transacted.

The Ups and Downs of Hiram Gill

The Hon. Hiram Gill Mayor of Seattle keeps public opinion in his bailwick induging in that aero batic feat known as jumping sideways" We do not know whether there is lack of consistency in the conduct of the Gill whether the inconsistency is in the people. Some six years Gill was mayor of Seattle at a time when there a strong dis position purify the town which had been largely given to vice. The mayor was, or was believed to be- arrayed the side of the gamblers and women of evil repute and other influences which do not make for town where wel-ordered people want to bring up their children.
 The recall was then new weapon in Washington as it was in all other parts of the country. It was seized with avidty and the mayor was swatted out of office with ease and dispatch. The women were voting and that year the strong for re- form But Gill though defeated not discouraged. Two years later he proved that he could come back and he did back, apparently the crest of a succeeding of reform but that may have been only appearance.
 Since then until now there nothing in Seattle politics to attract outside attention, but suppose Gill has all the time been mayor. We learned with surprise yesterday morning that the reformed reform mayor has been indicted along with other city officials including the chief of police of Seattle for receiving brbes from booz trust to facilitate the importation of liquor into Seattle in violation of the prohibition law of the state.
 Whether or the indictment has cost him his grip the affections of the of Seattle is yet be made manifest but if so, he need not despair. All the of reform have not come in yet and if he only escape the penentiary, he may ride in another
 It is, perhaps, true that Gill not elected the second time by the votes of the people who wanted to make Seattle a cleaner but by their failure to vote In that they made only half bad mistake if they had voted for Gill A cast against a bad man bad measure counts for half much the vote actually deposited in the ballot box
 It is unnecessary to resort to mathematics to prove this statement. Even if all good citizens do not understand how this be so every grafter and crooked politician knows that it Is SO If he not obtain the support at the polls of the pure in heart, he is thankful for the best thing-ther continued absence on election day.
