"A new agitation has been started on the question of statehood. Many
 Of the eastern papers NEW speak more favorably CONDITIONS of the admission of UNDER Arizona than they STATEHOOD. have done in the past.
 It Is also stated i.hat President Roosevelt is in favor of ad- mission. So far as sentiment is con cerned argument is all in favor of ad- mission and the only argument that can be ad6uced against it is the finan- cial condition existing. There seems to be no hope for improving this con- dition Of affairs, as each succeeding legislature only seems to plunge it still deeper in debt. and appropriates money for all manner of useless and unnecessary objects
 At present the governor. secretary, Judges and legislators are paid by the general government. The salaries of governor and legislators are made quate to the services required. and the Territorial legislature has no power to furnish relief. One of the first things which would come. up before a state legislature would be a bill increasing these salaries, while judging from the history of territorial legislatures, a regular flood of measures would be in- troduced for public improvements.''- Prescott Journal-Miner.
 Our Prescott contemporary favors statehood but fears that the expense of maintaining state government will be burden. This is an extremely short-sighted view. It should be re- membsred that after admission terri Norfal conditions will no longer exist: It has been the history of every new state. as we have repeatedly noted. that following admission into the un- ion the influx of immigration and cap- ital has been astonishing. Both pop ulation and wealth doublcd. trebled, and quadrupled. by leaps and bounds. Everybody familiar wf.h Arizona knows that such would be the devel- opments here. to a remarkable degree. Not one of the new states created since the admission of Colorado in 1876 has possessed the natural resources found attractions for capital that we can offer. The increased expense for a stats government over the expenses now sustained would be absurdly in- significant in comparison with the in- crease in wealth and taxable property.
 As to the shortcomings of territorial legislatures, everybody is agreed. As We have stated before, there are in each legislature number of strong men. but not enough to overcome in every instance the influence of the ir- responsible and corrupt. But state hood would change all this. Then it would not be such a difficult task to induce the best men in each com munity to stand for election There would be recognized honor in a mem bersnip in either house, whereas now 1t Is felt that little honor attaches to such membership. In state legis,a- ture seat would not only be sought for as a post of honor and responsi- bfiity. but it would offer Inducements to men of ambition in both parties-a legislative career Is nearly always a

Once or twice year the good house wife has thorough house cleaning. The house has been swept and dusted every day in the year, but the housewife knows that in spite of vigilance dust accunu- lates in cracks and corners, and is only to be removed by special effort.
 It's the same way with the body. You look after it every day. You take all the ordinary precautions of cleanliness and health Yet the body needs its special cleaning to rid it of the accumu- lations of waste and poisonous matter which invite disease.

The attention of the country having been directed altogether to the na- tionai tragedy at Buff THE STEEL falo and the incidents STRIKE AND following. the collapse BUSINESS. of the great steel strike has almost es- capped notice. Passing interest is re- vived by the controversy between MT. Shaffer, the president of the Amalga- mated association. and Mfr. Gompers and other labor leaders as to the re- sponsibility for the failure of ehe strike. whether under certain cir cumstances the strike might have achieved a measure of success is not so important as the fact, now gener- ally admitted, that the steel workers were led into the movement at Mir. Shaffer's unwise direction. It Is grat- flying to know that the rank and file of the strikers have not suffered ma terfally from the disturbance. Most of them are back at work in their old positions at good wages, after a rest which they really needed during the hot months. The public Is not partic- ularly concerned at the incidental loss of $5.o00.000 by the steel trust. but the strike has developed two lessons of interest.
 The first lesson is for the working men. They have learned that 1t is the height of folly to commit their fort unes to injudicious and badly balanced leadership; that no strike of magni- tude can win unless 1t has behind 1t the support of public sentiment. an1 to have such support 1t is required that there be a substantial and tangi- ble grievance.
 A great lesson for the counsry Is the proof that the nation Is at such a high tide of prosperity that not even a labo- disturbance of the enormous scope of the steel strike can seriously interfere wf.h the general volume of business. In former periods strikes of much smaller proportions have served prac- ticaIy to create panic. Almost every ishing phase of our national prosperity, going to prove to us that we have bu. poorly comprehended the dimensions of our country's greatness.
 As evidence that the iron and steel trade has suffered nothing more than a temporary check, the Railway and Engineering Revisw informs us that orders for about one hundred thousand tons of steel rails have been placed within a few days ana current esti mates put the volume of the probable
 
 oroers in sight for the next five or six weeks at a half million tons. The other branches of railway supply are tive and car departments. The prosp- poets now are that the entire iron and steel industry will gradually become increasingly oversold- Inquiries and opening up requirements clearly poin. 10 an exceptional demand for an in- definite period. The very strong prob abilities now are that a demand will sci in, and continue all along the line, which will crowd all capacity stiil farther ahead. New furnace and mill capacity is lining up.. new capacity Is projected. but withal the requirements are trotting ahead at a speed which, if not alarming as to continuance, is at least surprising. There is as yet no hint of a purpose to put up railway material prices.

The trial began with the formal pre-.

Boardman outlined what he expected
TO prove with reference to the prison

by stabbing in the billiard roomsof the
West hotel at an early hour of the
morning of Nov. % last. The. County
Attorney made the sensational state
1nent that Hamilton, before friends
and attorneys had been able to reach
him and advise silence, had made a
confession of the crime to a police Of
fcer and had claimed that it was done
in self-defense. The court room was
packed with a curious crowd. A mum
