The Chicago Tribune recalls the fact that in the debate between Douglas
 and Lincoln at Freeport DOUGLAS H., May r, 1858, the
 ON EX- little giaE." told his PANSION. hearers that it was idle
 to say that this country had territory enough; that .,here was enough for the present. but that this Is a growing nation. and he added: Ut swarms as often as a hive of bees, and as new swarms are turned out each year there must be hives in which they can gather and make their honey. I tell you" said he. with emphasis, in crease and multiply and expand is the law of this nations existence. You cannot limit this great republic by mere boundary lines saying thus far shalt thou come and no farther And his final sentence was Just so far as our interests require additional g.r- ritory in the north. or on the isl1an !s in the ocean. I am for it. He was not

afraid of imperialism; that is he be- lieved in the imperialism of the Amer ican people. He believed that the na- ton was big enough to do anything that was right, and was not afraid. Had Douglas lived until now he would have been SI years of age. Suppose he had lived and retained his faculties What would he think of democratic meeting in 1900? Wha', would he say to the d. mocratic platform of 1900? And what answer would he be making to MT. Bryan were he to hear him declar- ing in effect that the only way the lib critics of this country could be saved would be by electing him president on a platform which holds within it dis honor to the flag and q covert attack upon the courts of this country?

We all know that the census returns for Phoenix are inCorreCt. If the census Were to be taken now. with our people all back from the seashore and from Washington would be increased several thousand. Lack of public spirit, careless work by the census enume ra tors and the taking of the cen sus at the worst possible season for this city, are responsible for the misera bic showing. The census returns will cost Phoenix q lot of money and retard the growth of the town not q little.
Arizona republican., 1900-10-17

Granting, for arguments sake. that Phoenix has only $500 population where can you find another town of the size of Phoenix that can boast of the material advantages it possesses? Its tax list, it's array of solid business houses. its banks. it's theater. its every speak for the enterprise of this south western metropolis. If the census bu- reau insists upon giving Phoenix fewer inhabitants by several thousand than it possesses the world will have to ac- knowledge that it is the biggest town of it's class in the entire country.

Talk five minutes with an observing business man of this territory and he
 will tell you that with
 TILE statehood Arizonas op- NECESSARY portunities would i'm
 STEP. prove at least fifty per
 cent. Here Is apprecia- tion of the fact that statehood brings stability. The population of a terri tory is composed largely of adventur- ous spirits, people who chafe under conditions that obtain in older com munities. These are the pioneers and in the case of Arizona they have done their part well. The time comes-it has come in AriZona-when with the advent of new popula tion and the growth of progressive ideas there is a demand for Improvements beyond the power of the people to supply. Naturally the terri tory looks to the east for more money and more people. There comes the rub. The people whose presence is de- sired have lived years in communities where there is close regard for the things that go to make existence en- 5oyable. where property interests and life are held at the highest possible valuation, where improvement along business and social lines is the first order of the day. Such people naturally dislike to in vest or locate in q territory. They regard a territory as Europe regarded America in the early days-as the "backwoods." the frontier, the jumping off place. Nothing short of statehood will overcome their prejudices.
 Knowing this. the people of Arizona should not hesitate to take the one step necessary to bring about state hood and its manifold advantages. The administration will be republican during the next meeting of the con- gress. which also is republican,. The betting Is two to one in the east that the administration will be republican four years longer. The senate will surely be republican for years to come; the next house. according to the bet ting men. who are as good judges as

MT. Olney believes the reelection of Mckinley will mean tha, the Ameri-

 OLNEY justify such legislation STUMBLES as the Dingley tariff
 ON A bill" Of course it will.
 TRUTH. The people had a Me
 Kiniey tariff once and prospered under it nightly. They then thought they wanted something diff eren;. voted for Cleveland, and got it. Then they were sorry, for the results were disastrous. So in 1896 they elected Mckinley by an enormous majority in order to obtain a tariff like the one he had given them. The Dingley law was passed as soon as possible. law con- Structed in accordance with the prin- ciple of protection to home industries. It has revived all our industrial and business enterprises and placed the country at the high water mark of prosperity. Not only this, but it has yielded ample revenue for government purposes instead of the constant defi- cit which We had under the Wilson German tariff.
 There is every reason why the people should approve and justify the Ding ley tariff law and re-elect Mckinley. One of Bryan's first acts if he were elected and if he had a congress in sympathy with him, would be to repeal the Dingley law.
