 In the first plaee ID the -sSe oi
 the Enterprise. the ante-e1ectiOn
 pledce given 10 the people ot this tern Iorv by that sheet was the ac- comp.ishing oi statehood and silver by Wilson's election. If such pol icv has hoodwinked the people, as it appears to have. if silence goes
 for anything since the political dlrk . has again slashed the life out of the territorv's fondest hope, what could
 Arizona hope for even in Bro dies appointment as governor with tae silver sentiment Preiominating
 So forcibly as is proven in Wilson's election. The cry of statehood, silver aud Wilson is the rankesi
 piece of crooked aad insincere poli- tics ever damned down tine throats
 of American ignorance in Arizona, and none know il or feel i' now more keenlv than those who backed up that treaeherous sentiment. If the democratic delegate elect had the power before election to force a re- publican president. republican senate and a republican congress to his feet he has certainly the same power after he IS indorsed. The truth of the late pO- litical contest narrows down to this feature. ArizOnans have been ln- suited and degraded. aud if the ma joritv must reap the reward, the minority are wiling 10 share the stain tha, Arizona Is cursed with Leave Broiie alone. He never will be governor of Arizona any more so than he would go to congress on democratic sentiment or democratic support.
 For years past the persistency witt which the Courier has asssiled tho .ersonsi. political and general interests of men in this community has not only been scurrllons, bu HkeE.sa cowardly.
