 If Senator Quay succeeds in getting the statehood measure through the senate at this session of congress he will be entitled to the everlasting grat- itude of the people of Arizona, regard less of political affiliations. His an nouncement that he wouIo ask for the discharge of the committee on terri tories. of which he IS a member, in order that the bill might be considered in committee of the whole, is not done for political effect, for there is nothing to be gained in Pennsylvania by such an action, but 1t shows Senator Quay's sense of fairness and his desire to se- cure for the people of the territories their just dues. in spite of politics.
