Some of the republican papers of the territory are opposing the home rule bill introduced in Congress by our del- egate, Mark Smith, claiming that it will destroy onr chances for statehood. Arizona, during the life of the present administration, has about as much chance for statehood as a rich man has of entering the kingdom of heaven, according to the Bible. The argu- ments urged against the measure are far fetched. Utah was allowed the privilege granted by the bill introduced by our delegate, and it did not affect her admission to the sisterhood of states. The right of self-government was one of the causes which produced the revolutionary war. Our forefathers fought for the privilege, were victori- ous and established this government, which is now denying this same right to her sons.-[ Winslow Mail.
