An official bulletin will in a short time
issue from State Statistician Johnson's
office. showing by comparative tables the
expenses OF conducting county governments
in Indiana under the new county reform
law and under the old law. Former Stats
tician j. =. Conner said the reform laws
have saved the State something like two
million dollars. Mr.. Johnson says thai
statement was erroneous, because II was
based on the estimates made by advisory
boards, which he says have not always
been large enough. necessitating the max
ing of additional appropriations. The bull
letin which will soon be issued will compare
the expenses under the old law with the
actual appropriations under the reform law.
which will. il is said. show that il costs
about as much TO conduct county govern
ment now as il ever did. despite the reform
law. MI. Johnson cites Benton, his own
county. as an example. In that county the
expenses for 1899 were S31. 05S. while under
the new law last year they were $S1 .924.S4.

YE rs

That the trade record this spring a. the When.
Those who have traded here know why it is. The few
who have not may be interested in knowing.
To begin with we are showing the productions of the
very best clothing makers in America. There are no ready
to-wear clothes builders superior to Hart, Sehafner & Marx,
of II. 5. q NJ. fame; or Kirschbaum & Co., OF Vitals Brand
fame or who excel such firms as Adler Bros. Alfred Ben
jamin & Co.; Levi, Kern 81 Co, and a few others VIII ose ex-
elusive models and patterns are exhibited at the When.
Another reason why trade is expanding at the When is
because we have made lower prices for the best productions
of the world than competition consent to make for given
qualities of fabric.
If there is any doubt on this point note the frequent re-
vision OF prices inaugurated by competitive firms in their
effort to keep step to the low price music which originates
at the When.
This week will be an interesting one for the man who
has $500 which he wishes to invest In clothes. This price
includes many of the makes of the above named firms and
would show honest value if $500, SIS. 90 and $1,000 were
named instead of S12 90.
Striped and check Worsteds, Cassimeres. Cheviots and
Serges are included at this price.
Several thousand interested people thronged the Fur
nishing and Hat Departments of the When last week. The
magnet was the immense variety and the price tickets that
were attached to the Hosiery, Underwear, Shirts, Neckwear
and Headgear shown in this mammoth department.
Fresh arrivals every day from the markets of the world
take the place of the wonderful output of merchandise

Other addresses were made by prominent Arizonans and all were received with great applause.
 The speaking was at an end and the ultimate business of the conven- ton was taken up-the selection of the commission to Washington. The committee on permanent orga- nization and order of business had recommended only three. As soon as the nominations were begun it was seen that arrangements would be unsatisfactory, and six candi- dates having been nominated, w. c. Greene, l.. w. Mix, John Brock man, F.. B. Gage, Jack Lawlor and w. J. Murphy, the recommenda- ton was set aside after consider able debate, and they were unani- mously elected.
 A suggestion by the chairman that the chairmen of the democrat ic and republican central commit tees be added to the commission was rejected on the ground that even the name of a party should not enter into the statehood move ment.

SlHnlnE Ol lnc treaty Ol 0udQ- alupe Hidalgo, February 2, 1S4S, that the Mexican citizens resid- ing in the territories acquired by the United States, were given the right to retain their property and remain citizens of Mexico, but that they were under obligations to make their election within one year from that date as to whether they would remain Mexican citizens or become citizens of the United States, and if at the end of the year they failed to de- clare themselves Mexicans they should be considered to have elected to become American citizens, and it is a well known fact that very few took the Mexican side And this was done notwithstanding the fact that at that time our territories were under a military government, our very worst form of government.
 Later the Mexican government made provisions for the removal of those who were unable to do so themselves, and who desired to re- turn to Mexico, and am unable to learn of any who took advantage oA NAAA6 OuA civil war, while Arizona was still part of New Mexico, we furnished 6,561 soldiers in defense of the Union, out of a population of S0,- 567, and about 97 per cent of these men were native born citizens of Mexico Once more, during the Spanish-American War, New Mexico and Arizona not only sent more troops to the front, in proportion to the population, than any other state or territory in the Union, but also furnished more than one-half of the grandest regiment organized during the war-Roosevelt's Rough Riders.-I thank you for your kind attention Let us have statehood.
 The following resolutions were unanimously adopted by the con vention:
 That we, the people of Arizona, in convention assembled, hereby declare that we are justly entitled to be freed from a territorial form of government; that such a govern ment IS fitted only for a sparsely settled and turbulent frontier and that whenever any section of country becomes reasonably devel- oped by a sufficient number of peo- pie, wealth and intelligence, such country should then be erected into sovereign state and the people thereof be clothed with full powers of self-government- It has been the unvarying custom of the people of the United States, through con gress and the executive depart ments, to admit to the union of states every territory which pos sessed sufficient population. wealth and the ability to govern itself.
 We also declare that the territory of Arizona has been under a terri tOrial form of government for a period of thirty-eight years; that for the past ten years she has had a larger population and greater wealth than the average of all the

 The territory of Arizona, in point of climate, soil and mineral re- sources, is without a peer. No other equal era west of the Missis- sippi river has more natural re- sources; her soil produces the or anges and Times of Italy, the dates of Egypt, the grapes of. France, the cereals of the north and the cattle and sheep of the central states; her mineral wealth is unmeasured, her mines of copper alone are pro- ducing bullion of the value of $35, OO0,0O annually.
 We declare that Arizona is justly entitled to admission as a state, first, because she has the requisite num- Der of people; second, because she has more than the requisite amount of wealth; third, because she has the ability and desire of self-govern- ment; fourth, because her people have shown themselves to be first in patriotism and loyalty to the Union in time of peril, and finally, the ad mission of Arizona to statehood will, in addition to our already acquired population and wealth, cause a rap i'd increase in development through the confidence inspired by the knowledge of stability under state law.
 Be it further resolved, that con- fidently relying upon the sense of justice and liberality existing in both branches of congress, we do most earnestly and respectfully en- treat and petition the United States congress to pass an act enabling Arizona to take her proper place in the sisterhood of states.
