Two democratic mem bers of the house committee on military af- fairs-Lentz of Ohio and Sulzer of New York-are making asses of themselves because the committee will not allow them to make the investigation of the use of federal troops in the Idaho mining trou- bles of last year, a vehicle to ex- ploit themselves and to manufac- ture political capital for the demo- cratic party. These two men man. age to get the committee into a wrangle at almost every meeting by their ridiculous charges ana idiotic talk, and at the last meet ing Chairman Hull was obliged Is remind Lentz. who attempted to order witnesses around, that he was nat the whole committee. In- stead of helping the investigation this pair of democrats are hamper ing it, but that perhaps is their real object, although it was Lentz who it.

 The striking and important events of the last year have established the overw helming value of the THRICE-A- WEEK WORLD to every reader. For an almost nominal sum it has kept it's subscribers informed of the pro- gress of all our wars and, moreover, has reported them as promptly and fully as if 1t were daily. With our interests still extending throughout the world, with our troops operating in the Philippines, and the great pres. idential campaign, too, at hand, it's value IS further increased.
 The motto of the THRICE-A-WEEK WORLD is improvement. It strives each year to be better than it was the year before, and public confidence in it is shown by the fact that it now circulates more than twice as many papers every week as any other news paper not daily, published in America.

Governor Murphy is en route home from Washington. Before leaving there he is quoted as say ing in regard to statehood, "The bill will pass the senate this ses- sion, but don't expect it will get through the house before next winter. Conditions are favorable for admission and I am satisfied that before the present congress comes to an end the necessary legis- latien will have been enacted to give 10 Arizona her place in the galaxy of states" ."-Journal-Miner.

STATEHOOD IS CERTAIN.

from Washington Thursday morn ing, coming on the special trai with the members of the interstate commerce commission and theiI families, says the Arizona Gazette He expressed himself as delighted to get back home to the sunshine and balmy air of Southern Arizona The weather in the east through out his three weeks trip was mis- erable, particularly at Chicago where he ran into a regular bliz- gard.
 Speaking of the supreme court of the United States, before which he argued a case, Judge Frazier said he considered 1t the greatest body of men in the United States. Men of wonderful strength of ckar- acter and of great learning. II would rather appear before the judges of the United states court than before a justice of the peace to argue a case," said Judge Fra zier. ''The uniform courtesy of the judges is so marked that it at once places an attorney at his ease. A little incident in my own exper- fence will show you how consider ate the members of the court are. My case would not have come up in it's regular turn until the last of this week. 1 went before the court and asked that it be called ahead of it's regular place on the calendar, explaining the distance I had to travel and the inconvenience of remaining so long in Washington. Without any order or motion the case was set ahead so that it could be argued and gotten out of the way more than a week ahead of it's reg. ular turn"
 As to statehood Judge Frazier believes that Arizona is certain to be admitted before the final ad- journment Of the present congress. It is doubtful if the territory will be admitted before the summer ad : journment," said he, "as there are so many important measures now before congress which takes prece- dence over it, but it will surely be admitted during the short session. Colonel Wilson is working hard for statehood and for the general interests of the territory. He is, however, badly handicapped by three things. Fist, his position in regard to free silver, which is dead issue, even the southern dem- ocrats having thrown it over; sec ond by his belonging to the minor ity party, end third, by the fact of being only a delegate Tn congress and having no vote in the house.
 "Governor McCord is doing splendid work towards statehood, and work that counts, too He is working in full harmony with Co., onel Wilson and has rendered val uable assistance te Wilson in plac- ing information about the territory before the committee. 1 was as tonished at the wide acquaintance Governor McCerd has in Washing ton. Not alone among public men, nearly all of whom know him per Son2lly, put among residents ot Washington and the newspaper correspondents.
 "Let him appear on the floor of the house, which he has access to on account of being an ex-member, and he is at once surrounded by a group of members of the house fir ing questions at him about Ari zona and statehood. He is whole host in himself, and is doing more for statehood and the territory than any other man anywhere"

Washington, March 13-Sen
ator lIoar has incurred the dis.
pleasure of Senator Tillman bv
lending himself to a party of col
ored men to make "a personal
attack upon the "Pitch Fork"
Senator through a Senatorial pc
tition. During the morning hour
in the Senate to day Senator
lloar presented petition, signed
by a number of colored citizens.
which sevcrly arraigned Senator
Tillman, by name, for indecent
language against the negro race
during recent debate in the Sen.
ate. The petitioners claim that
the language used by Senator
Tillman was a disgrace to that
honorable body, calculated to cor.
rupt the morals of all who asso
ciate with the Senator from South
Carolina. In presenting the pc
tition Senator Uoar remarked
that he supposed that the peti
tiOners were citizens Of the State
OF South Carolina.
Senator Tiliman was not in the
Senate when the petition was
presented, but, his attention beng
called to the subject. he took the
petition from the clerks desk and
ascertalned its contents. He
found that the signers of the pc.
tition are colored men residing i'm
Washington city and not his con
stituents, as Senator IIOar had
stated. With a determined eX
preston on his face, the South
Carolina Senator went over TO
call the venerable Massachusetts,
Senator to account for the some
what questionable part he had
played in the transaction. TIE

the two Senators was in subducd

his record on free silver, which
some careless newspaper CORES
pOndent had snarled in one of the
Nebraska papers. 1t was easy to
observe that Senator Tillman was
angry, as he had a right to be-,
and he looked and acted as if he
was giving Senator HOar a good.
sized chunk of his rough and
tumble mind. The Massachusetts,
Senator was evidently trying to
furnish a satisfactory explanation
for having presented a petition
making such violent attack upon
IA brother senator, but he did not
appear to be making a success in
that direction. There was a look
of trouble upon his we'll bleached
face, and a decided flush of red
passed over his countenance at
intervals as if to punctuate the
vigorous remarks Senator Tillman
was making. 1t appears that Sen
ator Tillman charged Senator
Hoar with committing an act that
was not only cowardly, but be
meath the lowest grade of Senate
rial courtesy and dignity. He
charged that it would have been
more manly had Senator IIoar
made the attack on his personal
responsibility, instead of shield.
ing himself behind petition
signed by persons unknown to
the Massachusetts Senator. The
incident passed for the time being
without any public demonstration
on the part of SertOr Tlllman,
but the incident is not regarded
as closed. The South Carolina
Senator is naturally indignant on
the subject and he may make
