UniOniSt Leaders

The Seven Regular Republican mem !
bers of the Legislature of Delaware |
have Just made public a letter, a copy |
OF which was mailed to each OF the
Union Republican members OF that
body who voted for Mr. Addicks forl
both senatorial seats ON every bal
lot, ON Saturday evening. IL IS thel
same proposition which thoy attempt
ed to transmit some time ago through
the respective State Committees, but
which was answered. by the chairman
of the Union Republican Committee
without submission TO the members Of
the General Assembly.
The purpose is to appeal TO the
members directly. and see whether
they cannot settle the matter OF the
senators among themselves. The
Union State Committee is made up Of
the personal friends OF Addicks. and
OF course it would reject any tender
that did not contemplate his election.
But this committee does not represent
the mass Of voters. and Il remains TO
be seen whether IL controls these leg
, lislators. The letter reads:

STATEHOOD.

Republican newspapers and orators
are asking the voters of Arizona
whether it is wiser for them to depend
on the Republican majority in the
Senate in the matter of Statehood, or
on the Democratic minority?
AS all of the Republicans of the
Senate save eleven are opposed to
Statehood for any of the remaining
Territories at this time. it ought to be
easy to give an intelligent answer to
this suggestion. Senator Bate of Ten
nessee, the ranking Democratic mem
Der of the committee on Territories
announced on the floor of the Senate
that all the Democrats in the body
were prepared to vote for the Omnibus
bill, and said he was authorized by his
Democratic colleagues to make the
statement.
Senator Quay, after making careful
canvass of the Republican side, an
nounced to the friends of Statehood
himself, would vote for the bill, but
that none of them but himself would
take an active interest in forcing the
measure to a vote.
This Is the condition. 1t should
not be lost sight of when the voter
goes to the polls. The Democrats of
the Senate might be described as the
attorneys of Arizona in the suit for
Statehood. If the brief should be with
drawn from them. by Arizona going
Republican, Statehood would be post
poned for at least a half dozen years.
The Republican Senators are opposed
to- Statehood not so much because
Arizona is Democratic or New Mexico
and Oklahoma Republican, as because
they are opposed to increasing the
power of the west in Congress- Rep
resentative Grosvenor told this plainly
in his speech in the House. Platt of
Connecticut and Aldrich of Rhode Is
land have said practically the same
thing. They don't want to divide the
big appropriations made by Congress
with Arizona, New Mexico and Okla
homa, which they would be compelled
to do if they were States and were rep
resented in the Senate.
Let us look at the matter from the
standpoint Of common sense and en-
lightened selfishness. The Democrats
of the Senate are forcing a minority of
the Republicans to action. The solid
Democratic vote with the eleven Re-
publicans who are pledged to vote for
the bill when 1t comes up can pass it.
If the Democrats should cease to urge
the bill, it would never emerge from
Senator Beveridge's pigeon hole. In

became a wife. Husband and wife
were one, and he was it. There were
States in which husband could con-
sign a sane wife to a lunatic asylum
and keep her there, and incidents of
that kind were not wanting. Property
rights of women secured little recogni-
ton at the hands of the lawmakers.
AS to education, liberal education. that
was for boys. The means Of earning
a living by any kind of labor, skilled
or unskilled, were mostly monopolized
by men. How completely all this
cruel injustice has been swept away!
How vastly superior to her grand
mother is the American woman of to-
day-superior not only in the enjoy
ment of her natural rights, but in
knowledge that affords her capacity
for the utilization of facilities that
have come with these rights.
If the social settlement" tends to
make honest men and women out of
the children OF dishonest parents; IN
dustrious men and women out of the
children of the indolent, it is on the
right track, is one of the many agen-
cies that are carrying civilization for
ward in the most altruistic age the
world has ever seen. There has new
er been a time in this nations history
when there was greater need for such
work than now, when immigration is
pouring into our cities such masses of
ignorance and degradation as lhave
never come to us in the past. What
would be the outlook if the second gen.
Grafton of these people were not su-
perior to their parents?
The Tucson citizen., 1902-11-01
CHILDREN SUPERIOR TO PAR.
ENTS.

The Lost Angeles Express states that
assault is being made upon the
social settlement on the ground that
it makes children superior to the
parents, and thus strikes at the unity
and integrity of family life"
How could any progress be achieved
if children were not made better than
their parents? What is the object of
the constantly increasing effort for
the moral, intellectual and physical
elevation of the masses if it be not to
make each succeeding generation su-
periOr to it's latest predecessor? In
its final analysis this comes right
down to the family-to parents and
their children. Billions of money is
annually spent in the United States in
the great work of putting the coming
generation on a higher plane than
that which their parents occupy.
This is why civilization goes for
ward. This is why science thas made
such progress in recent years that the
grammar school boy of today has a
wider range of education than his
great-grandfather possessed when he
left college. 1t is this altruistic spirit
that has revolutionized the treatment
of the insane and pushed far forward
the education of the blind and the
deaf mutes. An equal change has
been wrought in society's dealings
with criminals, especially with Juvenile
offenders. Not many years ago i'm
prisonment for debt was one of the
common incidents, and many an hon
est debtor, victim of misfortune, died
in Jail.
Perhaps the most important result
of making children superior to their
parents is seen in the changed rela-
tion of women to society in general.
Six or seven decades ago the indivld-
ualty Of a woman was lost when she

SHERIFF WAKEFIELD'S FEES.

A great deal of interest has been
shown in the facts published in The
Citizen giving the amount of costs in
Cured in one year by Sheriff Wake
fields deputies in arrests in misde-
meanor cases. The number of such
arrests was 2S5, and the amount the
very large sum of more than 81, 100.
1t was shown, on the other hand. that
under Sheriff Murphy, not one dollar
had been taxed against the county for
costs in drunkenness cases during Mr..
Murphy's term of Office, as all such
cases were properly left to be dealt
with by the city authorities.
The costs of the sheriff's Office are
large, and many items are unavoid-
able, but the specific fact as to Sheriff
Wakefield is that deputies were put in
by him for the very purpose of Great
ing and collecting unnecessary costs.
These deputies were not the regular
deputies, but were men VINO were Sc
cured to make arrests which should
have been made by the city author
tiles, and who were paid out of the
fees thus created, all at the expense of
Pima county.
These facts and figures were pub
lished in ample time, and it has not
been found possible to refute them.
Whatever may happen in the future,
the fact remains that Sheriff Wakefield
in this one item put Pima county to an
unnecessary expense of over g. 100, in
order that these fees might be divided
between him and his deputies.

The report is a lengthy one. If
General Funston were alone in the

is cumulative. The Citizen has no de-
