The position of the Florence Enter prise on statehood does not appear satisfactory to some of its Phenix contemporaries, and Is being severely criticised by them for the supposed error of its ways. This is neither fair nor courteous to the profession. Newspapers, like private individuals, differ oa important subjects, and no one paper or party of papers, has a right to attempt to dictate the policy of another in which they have no financial interest. If this were pos sible ali antagonism would be crushed and but one side of a subject would be placed before the people. Fortu- nately it is otherwise. As the con stitution, in its adoption or rejec- ton, means much to Arizona, the fullest and freest scope for its dis cussion should not oBiy be given but should be encouraged. If it con tains subject matter that is not only not acceptable but is injurious to the citizens of any one portion of the county, those people, through their representative, the press, should be respectfully heard against it. It is but fair that we should be fair all round. Our neighbors have opin- ions that should be respected as well as our own, and this fact should not be lost sight of in thestatehood con- troyersy that is now before the pub ic.-Tucson Citizen.
 Allen and Sactelcqen, the Ameri- cans who are making tour of the world on bicycles, have made a sig nal demonstrationof their pluck and en niurance by ascending Mt, Ararat without guides in the face of great difficulties. During the last twenty- seven hours climb they could find no water and were obliged to queuch their thirst with snow. The way, too, was full of danger. as they made the last 600 feet of the ascent on the verge of a tremendous gorge, where single false step or one weak place in the snow would have proved fatal. Reaching the top they planted an American flag on an fec peak and fired salute with 1 their pistols.

 Although our Worlds Fair bears the official, authoritative and impo- sing name of Columbian Exposi- tion," it keeps right along being called the Worlds Fair-a signifi- cant commentary upon the wisdom of the persons who insisted upon at taching hifalutin title to our na- tional performance. The press and people of this country insist upon calling the "Columbian Exposition" the Worlds Fair, and the English speaking public of Europe call it the Worlds Fair, too. So it will be the Worlds Fair, and no amount of ponderous imbecility or of theatri- cal fubdub will make it anything else.-Chicago News.
