reference to the course that should be
pursued, and the discussion became gen
eral. It was the obvious sentiment of the
committee that every effort should be
made to exploit the industrial and COM
merciaI advantages Of Virginia. This
sentiment was perhaps best expressed
by the Lynchburg resolutions, which said
in part:
PAST HISTORY.
'.We think It injudicious and unwlse
that the exhibit should consist Of such
relics and antiquities as belong to our
past history
The various delegates were animated
by a sense Of the great commercial fu-
tire of the State. and earnestly desired
that nothing be lone to telittle our fr-
ture by giving an undue prominence TO
our past
There was a lergthy discussion wheth-
er orr no the sole direction Of the Vlr-
ginia exhibit should be in the hands OF
the Commissioner of Agriculture 1t was
urged that the commissioner must OF
necessity be familiar with the needs and
requirements 7of. the State and would
therefore be able to gather such ex-
hibits as would best portray these ad-
vantages.
On the other hand. it was contended
that each board of trade should be al
lowed to nominate one member TO CO.
operate with the commissioner. It was
finally decided to adopt the resolution
OF Mr. ]. r. Williams, of Lynchpufs'
that the chair appoint a committee from
those present to determine the amount
of money that should Ire asked for ana
the character of control which should
be exercised over Virginia's exhibit.

 mittee on territories? It is the Hon.

 What does this tried friend of Arizo- na say regarding the election in Ari- zona? Bob Morrison admitted yesoer- day that Senator Quay had sta.ed that e democrat should be elected in Afzona to secure the passage of the statehood bill Senator Quay, who earnestly desires to see the territories admitted, knows that he cannot de, pend on his republican colleagues when it comes to a vote. He must have the solid vote of the democrats. This, he says, will be given if Ari- zona nemains true to it's principles. This is the politics in the statehood question. It is plain. The citizens of the territory will not allow the repub- lican speubinde1s to pull the wool over the,r eyes. They understand the situation perfectly-So does N. S.

REPUBLICAN sPELLsINDERs.

The republican spellbinders held the boards in Bisbee yesterday and on two diferegt occasions addressed the voters of the percinct Mir. Morris on is a pleasing talker, that is, his voice is smooth and the same speech that did service in the north for the past two weeks has been dressed up and is now being unioaded on the unsuspecrng voters in the south. Mir Morrison seems TO be pleasant gen tTeman to meet socially and the speech delivered in front of the Ii brary steps on yesterday was a pleas ant little affair and the arguments used were the same as heard two years ago-vote for republican and state hood.
 In the course cf his remarks MT. Morrison stated that Arizona had been standing ou the threshold of statehood for several yeaY-that is a fact, and the republican party is the one that has denied Arizona the privilege, the democrats in every con gross have been favorabIy disposed to Arizona
 MT Morrison stated with much gusto that Theodore Roosevelt had stated that he would sign the statehood bill if passed by congress T. is not often that the President fys in the face of the congress of the United States, but if President Roosevelt had been so strenuous in his desire to have Arizona admitted to the union, or to use his influence in that direction with the republican senators, he has twice had the opportunity to recon mend the passage of the statehood bin to congress, but a careful perus- al of his message fails to find one single utterance in oar favor.
 Mir Morrisn's argument that re- publican should be elected to con gress from Arizona in order to Insure the passage Of the statehood bill, is the same that has been going the rounds of the republican press for the past three months-that is that the American citizen of Arizona mus! crook their knees in tawning before the republican throne. or have their hopes forever blasted, and this iD the face od the republican national pla, form, and the territorial republican platform, the latter s-ating tha- poi tics does not enter in1p the statehood question at this time

Republicans of Arizona have eyer been insfncere in their political work in Arizona They have laid awake nights during every campaign studying up plans to deceive the voters They are pursuing the same deceptive course now that they have in the past In thetr platform adopesd at Phoenix the following plank appeared:
 We congratulate the people Of Ari- zona upon the brilliant prospect for statehood, and we maintain that the political complexion of the territory should have nothing to do with our claims for admission
 Notwithstanding the bravo declara- tiou every republican orator and ey- cry republican newspaper has been working overtime to convince the voters ef Arizona that fl is necessary to elecr Bob Morrison to congress in order to secure statehood. In doing so they assume rhe fact that the re publicans in the national convention were noa honest in the declaration favoring the admission of Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma to state hood; they abandon their declaration here in Arizona that the political complexion of Arizona should have nothing to do with our claim for state hooc."
