STATEHOOD CONVENTION.

In another column there appears the call of Governor Murphy for a statehood convention to meet at Phoenix on the 26th. inst, by the terms of which it will be seen that from each county each political or ganization, as represented by its central committee, shall send five delegates, each board of trade as many, and the mayor of each in- corporated town is authorized to name four.
 The importance of this conven- ton cannot be gainsaid. It is gen. erally believed that admission of Arizona to statehood will be of great value to all of the people of the commonwealth. So great a boon is worth an effort to Secure. The proposed convention is for the purpose of devising a concerted effort in that direction.
 In the approaching convention Nogales and Santa Cruz county should have a full representation, Our town and county. by virture of their situation and natural resources are entitled to weight and in- huence in the affairs of Arizona. The only way to get such weight and influence IS to see that town and county are fully represented up on all such occasions. These are matters that may not seem of moment. In fact the question is frequently asked "of what good are theyl" From the standpoint of immediate return in dollars and cents the question is difficult to answer. But from the broader standpoint Of civic advancement in standing as a community among other communities, they are of great good in the end. A good which, perhaps, cannot be measur- ed, in dollars and cents for individ- uals, but which, in the end, ad- vancing the interests of all, are of real financial value to all. Con- sequently it is paying investment for those having at heart the ad- .vancement and welfare of Nogales and Santa Cruz county to take an interest in such gatherings and re- present their locality therein.
 Under tue call there will be seats for fourteen delegates from Santa Cruz county: four to be appointed by Mayor Overton and five each by the democratic and republican county committees t is 10 be really hoped that the three selecting powers will name rner who will all

Aimed AGAINST HAZING
An Amendment Attached TO the
Military Academy Bill.
Senate Resolution Fixes n Sub
s"ribed Oath to BE Taken by the
Students Before Entering the
SchooI-S3o, 600 Appropriated for
statue of General Mcclellan.

When the Senate convened at II o'clock
today only five Senators were in the
Chamber
Mir. Seweu Immediately called up the
Military Academy bill. and the Senate
proceeded to its consideration
Mr. Wetmore called up and hid passed
a bill approBriatfng $5O000 for the cree
ton OF statue to General Mcclellan N
the District Of Columbia
the amendment TO the Military AcaI-
envy bill offered by Mr. Alien was called
up. The amendment is as follows:
That each cadet on entering the Acad-
envy shalt take and subscribe an oath
that he viii not. while a student there
in, directly or indirectly, engage IN hazing
or eountenance the same, and if during
said time any cadet shall directly or IN
directly, engage in hazing or encourage
or countenance the same, he shall be
summarily expelled from said Academy,
and shall never thereafter be eligible 10
appointment to any office in The army or
navy"
Mr.. seweH objected to the amendment,
saying that he did not want young boys
to take Caths and break them
Mr. Allen said that these boys were
started cut in life with the idea that the
public must support them all their lives
by taxation.
Whenever one OF these cadets eGgag es
IN the brutal practice OF hazIng. said ne.
lie is as conscious Of the wrong as any
Senator in this chamber Then why
should he not take an OATH Every sol
der in the army has to take an oath and
if they can DO il the namby-pamby boys a.
West Point should be compelled 10 do it.
There is an idea il official circles that
an army or navy officer should not be re-
quested 20 take an cath This is all bosh.
For myself, / have no sympathy With the
regular army
SIR Allen then amended the committee
amendment against hazing by strengthen
ing the terms used Mr. SeweH accepted
these. The amendment as agreed to states
that the Superintendent OF the Military
academy shall make such rules as Viii ef-
fectuaIly prevent the practice Of hazinS
and any cadet found guilty OF participant
ing in such practice shan be snmmariIy
expelled.
The bill was then passed without dfvi-
sion.
