THE Lordsburg Liberal, which is
 usually very fair in its editorials for a repu blican paper, makes an inexcusable ! blunder in its last issue in apparently opposing the admission Of Arizona as
 8 state. The Liberal is printed on the circulation extends on either side Of | the line, it has perfect right to ex- ! press itself in regard to Arizona poli- ties. which it frequently does, and Oc- casioually with good effect. But in i this instance, at least it has laid it | pred icate wrong, a. the following shows: i One of the strong reasons advanced against admitting Arizona to statehood
 is that there Is no competent men in the te. ritory to fill the state offices. This statement is made by those fanil- far with the territory, and is based
 on tho history cf the territory. For fifteen years no man has held the office Of governor the full term. Every one has either resigned or been fired. Generally those who have been fired have been relieved from duty because
 of inc charges made against them by
 mem bers Of their own party. and 1t has
 always been claimed that the change
 has been made for the good of the ter
 ritory. If the territory was admitted
 and one Of these kind of individuals
 was elected governor he could not be
 fired. and would so serve his term out. or course the legislature could impeach
 him. but the legislature would meet
 and adjourn before the Arizona govern or would commence his fine work, and
 it could not be called together except
 by the governor, and Of course he
 would take no such chances. On the other hand, during the same period Of
 time every governor appointed in New
 Mexico has filled his entire term of office.
 If for no other reason, the people Of Arizona are entitled to statehood In
 republican politicians of which the
 Liberal complains. The people of Ari- zona should not be held responsible for the class Of republicans appointed to office in Arizona. It is possible of course that there may be some good and competent republicans in Arizona, but it is a fact that every appointment made by the president in many years has been far from satisfactory, to the people. The republicans have them selves made the charges against the officials in office which caused their re- moyal. Arizona is safely democratic, and when it becomes a state the people will see to it that a new and clean class of people will be elected to control her affairs. Men will then be placed in office who will not only serve out their time, but who will discharge their duties SO efficiently that they will be reelected to second term.

! DENVER people have founded col near the city. for the purpose Of test 1 ing the open air cure. This is step ! in the right direction, but il does not ' go far enough. The general govern ment and each state should pass laws : to prevent a. far a. possible the spread of this dreaded disease. which annually ] carries of more citizens than all other contagious diseases combined Most rigid laws are in force against yellow fever and beubonic plague, in which the general government takes hand, and vet the death rate from those dis eases would not amount to one per cent. Of those who died from consump- tion. THE ERA believes that the gen. eral government is interested in the health of the people. She has millions ito burn" as the saying goes, and she is spending it with d liberal hand in order to give the savages of foreign lands better government, but not one cent for the benefit Of her thousands of consumptives. who lack the means to care for themselves, and thus this fatal disease has been allowed to spread throughout the length and breadth of the land until all classes are affected by it, from the infant in arms to those of three score and ten. There should be vast sanitariums established throughout the arid regions of the west, under the supervision of the gen. eral government or the states, where these unfortunate people could be cared for, and if they could not be cured they would at least be made comfortable, and would not be in position to spread the contagion. Thousands of the best and most ener- getic men of the west were at one time affected with pulmonary troubles. They sought the dry climate of the mountain regions anu were saved, as thousands Of others could be saved had they the means to come and live in the deserts. This is q question which not only the medical societies and institu- tions should take up. but also our statesmen. It is not new idea. It has been discussed for many years. The doctors are looked to by the peO- pie to agitate ana bring about these reforms through their personal in- fuence. their medical journals and their societies.

STATEHOOD for Arizona seem. to have gone "where the woodbine twin eth" It would seem a waste of energy to kick against the pricks.' The principal objection Of the eastern poli- ticians seem to be based on a lack of population. However this objection does not apply to Oklahoma, Indian Territory, or even New Mexico, but their chances for admission are not much better than those of Arizona Those eastern politicians do not like to sec the majority of the Senate pass under the control of the western states.

TIE decline Of copper to l3 cents per pound in New York, is not d surprise 10 the producers. It has been apparent for some months past that break would occur. In fact, only few weeks ago the Amalgamated association threatened to cut the price to l2 cents unless the Calumet and Hecla people you'd jQi2-iw1risA. AT them in pooling ar rangement Since the formation of the Amalgamated association an un- derstanding has been had between that company and the Rio Tinto and Calu- met and Hecla people whereby the Rio TintO people should have the first chance at the European market and Calumet and Hecla second. At the time this arrangement was made it could not be foreseen that a period of depression would strike Europe and limit the demand for copper to about onc-half that Of what it was at the time the arrangement WAS made. The de- cline in the European demand loft the Amal&amated association with the
 
 CTS were marketing their copper at prices made by the pool, Amalgamatsd was fast pilinS up q large surplus. Manufacturers were apprehensive of a break, and were buying light, but now that the crash has come they will stock up, and thus remove the surplus, and the chances are that the new year will start in with a very small surplus of copper in sight. The Calumet and Hecla people have already announced that they are sold out and will not be in the market for some time, which is considered as good omen, as it is only natural that they must soon come to definite understanding with the Amal- long expected break has occurred, and both the producer and consumer know what to expect. It has long been the opinion of many that copper has been held at too high |; figure by the trust combine. The market for copper must always be controlled, at least to q great or or less extent, by the supply and de- mand. No combination, no matter how strong, cannot control the market by raising prices, though it might be possible for it to do so by lowering the price to such a point as to make the business uuprOftab!o for rivals not so favorably situated. The decline in copper cannot materially hurt the Ari-
