PHOENIX HAS DONE WELL.

We heartily agree with the follow ing editorial from the Arizona Re- publican. The citizens of Phoenix have done their full share of the work for statehood, and they are entitled to the thanks of the territory. In nearly every other center of popula- ton there has been a lack of enthus- iasm and emery in the work of build ing a state out of Arizona No doubt there has been individual effort in all the counties, but no where have we heard of such determined and concen- trated effort as has been made at Phoe- nix. The board of trade in that city has been specially active and effective in it's efforts. The Republican is cor rect when it says that everything should not be left for Phoenix to do. The business men of Prescott, Tucson, Bisbee and other towns should be likewise energetic. Continuing the Re publican says:
 At both Prescott and Tucson there are many business and professional men, and in the other towns there are not a few, who have wide acquaint-

ance in the east, and facilities for making their influence felt with sena- tors. They should not lose a day in exerting their influence to the fullest extent. Many public spirited men in the towns mentioned have already shown much interest and given valua- ble assistance in the campaign, and they should see to it that their com munities make it clear to senators that it is the unanimous wish of the people of Arizona that favorable ac- tion be had before the close of the present session.
 ''Telegrams and letters should so from all sections of the territory to Washington on behalf of statehood Prescott and Tucson and Bisbee should let it be known at Washington that it is not alone the people of Phoenix and the Salt River valley who are urging admission.
 It is impossible to state too strongly the duty of every citizen of Arizona al this time The door into the union is half open, the senate is ready to be convinced, and now it should be wig orous demand from all parts of Ariz- ona that the omnibus bill be passed"

The people will have to get rid of the republican party or at least force it from power, before any definite re- lief can be expected from the trusts. The trusts were created by republ:- can policies. they have been main- tained by republican legislation, and they furnish the financial support of the republican party. The trusts con fidently look to the republican party for protection, and their agent in re- publican council, Mark Hanna. is suf- ficiently powerful in his party to in- sure this protection.

aCIu.l NUMBER PRINTED TO-DAY, II50.
UNFORTUNATE TROUBLES IN GLOBE.

The Globe Clerks union publishes a notice in today's issue of the Globe Times, declaring a boycott on the store of John H. Morehead, who car ries small stock of fancy groceries, candies, fruits and other perishable products. MT. Moreheads offense is that he refuses to close his place of business at 7:30 each evening, the closing hour adopted by the larger stores at the request ot the clerks union. As MT. Morehead employs no clerks, We cannot see by what process of reasoning they claim any right to regulate his business, and if the move taken against him is instigated by one or more of the larger mercantile con cerns of the town, as we have heard intimated, it is very small piece of business. The clerks union appeals to the general public to withhold pa tronage from MT. Morehead, but we think that the effect should be upon everybody who stands for fair play, to increase the patronage bestowed upon him.-Globe Belt
 The Belt is right. The attempt of the clerks union to interfere with Mir Morehead or his business is an unwar- Tanted and high-handed piece of busi- ness, and the people of Globe should resent and condemn it.
 Ir ,f ha Dol cident is detailed even more outra- geous than this proposed boycott by the clerks union. Robert McBroom, a hostler employed by the United Globe mines was taken from his home by one hundred and fifty members of the Globe Miners union, to the public square. in front of the courthouse. There a discussion took place as to what should be done with or to Mo Broom, who was charged with non payment of dues to the union and with of the men who surrounded McBroom favored moderate action, while others voiced a sentiment which boded no good for him.
 Finally the sheriff came along, and and led MT. McBroom away from the crowd and into his office. It was then declared by the union men pres ent, by a viva voce vote that Me Broom would not be allowed to work for any company in the camp.
 If such acts as this is a sample of what may be expected of labor unions, then those who have opposed their or ganization in other camps in the terri tory are wise. The Globe union, how ever, seems to be unfortunate in it's many acts of indiscretion, and we doubt if there is another union in ex- istence with such record.
 MT. McBroon is said to have a large family, who we presume must starve because of his inability, perhaps, to meet his obligations to the unions. If one of the rules of the Globe Miners union requires it's members to pay their debts, that rule should be com mended, but it has no power to en- force it's rules or it's laws outside of it's lodge room.
