The legislature should not adjourn without giving an official expression of the strong sentiment in Arizona against admitting Arizona and New Mexico as one state. Such an arrangement would be deplorable. Before the end of the Fifty-seventh congress the dem ocrats in the senate proposed com promise that met with some measure of approval or consent from Arizonans, but that is now all of, and this territo- ry must now take firm stand against any statehood proposition which seeks to put New Mexico and Arizona into one state. There is good authority for the statement that the republicans will in the next congress seek to re- deem their statehood pledge by admit ting two states, combining Oklahoma and Indian Territory into one, and New Mexico and Arizona into another. Such a combination would destroy the identity of Arizona and destroy its public institutions and should never be agreed to. The legislature can now speak officially for Arizona on this question and it should do so before ,it adjourns; memorial should be spread upon the records so that when con gress meets it can be laid before it as an official document

Copper is landing firm at 15 cents. The recent advance in the price of the red metal has created enthusiasm m throughout Arizona. It means that the copper industry will take new life; that capital will come faster for the development of the mines; that the copper camps now idle will be able 70 resume operation and give work to hundreds of miners. It will mean that present development propositions will go forward, peaked by increased de termination and energy. Copper is the distinctly prominent and permanent metal in Arizona and what advances the interests of the copper industry ad- vances the intesert of every industry in Arizona. With copper at 15 cents. there are several camps in the Drag oons that will begin work and in Pima county, tributary to Tucson are sever al camps hat will renew operation with the coming of better prices.

Tombstone is getting ready to re ceive the Iron Horse" when that in dustrial steed shall go snorting into that re-habilitated and re-enlivened city. Several enthusiastic meetings have been held and appropriate com mittees have been appointed. The ex- ecutive committee is composed of A. Wentworth, chairman; Frank Hare Elwood Madden, Benjamin Rybon Wm. H. Bhemly and Prof. J. N. Gains. A complete program has not yet been marked out, but it will include feat ures which will give the pioneer resi- dents of that historic town an oppor tunity to show their appreciation and enthusiasm over the return of perma nent prosperity to the place in which they have remained for years sur rounded by adverse conditions, but win a faith in the future that has attracted the attention of the entire territory. There is not more beautiful or heaIthful location in the west than Tombstone and the coming of the rail road and the great mining enterprise which induced it to come. insures for the place an importance which will be gratifying to all Arizona The Review wishes that the Tombstone celebration of the advent of the railroad may be a great success.

TRuIAEul AN SWER.

In response to request from the Literary Digest for an opinion on the failure of the Fifty-seventh congress 10 pass the statehood bill, the Arizona Republican submits the following:
 The failure of the Fifty-seventh con sress to pass the omnibus statehood bill was a crime against the people Of the three territories. It was another ten porary triumph of New England that from the beginning of the government has opposed every movement that rep resented Americanism. Had New Eng land controlled the po,ices of the gov ernment, there would have been no states added to the original thirteen. If Jefferson had listened to the states men of New England, the Louisania Purchase would not have been consum- mated in 1908, or at any other time Had New England policies prevailed, fhe United States would have consent Cd supinely to the suzerainty of Eng land, and there would have been no war of 1872. New England grew vir- tuous after she became rich from the Have trade, but she has never acquired sufficient wisdom to comprehend the American spirit, or to understand the magnitude of this country. Had New England statesmanship been dominant, there would have been no homestead law, and much of the west would still be a wilderness. Had the New Eng land doctrines been accepted, .Califor- nia would have been left in the hands ef Mexico. With barely enough excep- lions to prove the rule. the senators and congressmen from New England are always found on the negative of every proposition for the upbuilding or +be west
 The easter proyincialism and self ishness of which New England is the chief exponent achieved victory in the Fiftyseventh congress, and not withstanding the overwhelming vote for statehood in the house of repre- ssntatives, and notwithstanding the protests of the valiant band of republi- can senators who followed the leader ship of Senator Quay, the republican party was placed on record as repudi- a.ing it's solemn declarations. But, as always in the past, New Eng and will lave to yield in this contest, because she stands opposed to liberty and jus flee
 The methods by which the omnibus Bill was beaten were disbonorable. The people of the territories were islander cd. In speech after speech they were elassed as ignorant, as repudistors and As polyeamists. The credit of the terri tories was attacked, their resources nisrepresented and ridicuied, and cap tal was told, in effect, to stay away. all to justify a stubborn denial of the right of self-goyernment and the right fs prosper under the same. conditions under which Americans in the states are prospering.
 An examination of the Congressional Record for the session discloses that the arguments against the admission of Arizona finally centered upon these two contentions:. First, that the Nor mons in this territory are so numerous that they would control the state, and that they are polygamists. Second, that the people of the territory gener- ally are so illiterate that they are not entitled to the privilege of self-govern- nent. This in face of the facts.

SOME INTERESTING CASES.
That are Likely to be Tried at the
November Term of Court.

The fall term of the district court
for Redwood county will open on
Wednesday, Nov. 4th, at which
time the grand jury will convene,
and on the following day the petit
jury will appear for service.
This term of court is likely to be
the most interesting term held in
Redwood county for a number of
years, on account of the cases al
ready certain to be called, and if a
trial is had of all the important
cases, as we'll as the others, the
term will be an unusually lengthy
one.
The cases against the Coe Com
mission Go. are among those that
will appear on the calendar. They
are both for money alleged to have
been wrongfully taken by reason of
getting the plaintiffs Ito make ex-
tensive option sales in wheat. The
cases cover periods extending over
several months and involve ex-
penditures of money amounting to
between 500, 200 and $4,000. They
will be warmly contested, the
plaintiff s having well-known attor.

out on to the prairie Saturday morn
ing, a telephone message was re-
ceived to the effect that Mr.. Hunt
had turned up at his residence
shortly after daylight.
Mr.. Hunt remembers having got
out of the wagon and as having
reached a straw stack, in which he
dug a hole, where he slept that
night, and probably all of the next
day, and portion, if not all of the
night. He insists that he was not
thrown out of the wagon and that
he was not injured in any way by
reason of the two nights and one
day out.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1903-10-21

claims of this character, for long
time. That the company means to
put up a strong fight is seen in the
fact that they have directed their
local agent, who was here during
the investments, and who intended
to take better berth month or
more ago, to remain here until after
this term of court.
Another case that will be of par
ticular interest is that of W. A.
Anderson, at one time wheat
buyer at a Wabasso elevator,
against nearly two dozen citizens of
that village, alleging damages by
reason of false and defamatory
petition circulated in Wabasso, and
addressed to the company, asking
the latter to remove him from his
position at Wabasso for the reason
that Mr.. Anderson was repugnant
in their sight. This all grew out of
the violations of the excise laws at
Wabasso, Mr.. Anderson taking a
leading stand in bringing about the
arrests of the liquor dealers, who,
after paying their fines, made life
decidedly unpleasant for Mr.. An
n 70 Of
After the county attorney appeared
on the ground the persecution of
Anderson ceased, although he moved
from the town on receiving better
position shortly afterwards. After
he changed his residence he en-
ployed E. E. Harriott and Somer-
vile q Olsen to commence the suit
for SANDER, and the papers are
expected to be filed this week. All
i of the signers to the document
asking for his removal are made
defendants, some of them signing
without thinking what they were
doing, thus being made defendants
in an action which they would have
avoided had they considered before
they acted.
A family quarrel, involving the
duty of children to an alleged in
debtedness which the father claims
they agreed to pay, amounting to
several hundred dollars, will be
aired unless settled in the mean
time.

ARCHIE MILLOY DEAD
Found Dead in al Slough Between His
Farm and WabaSS0 Last
Saturday Morning.
Left WabaSso Late Friday Evening and
Lost His Way When But
Few Blocks Out.

Archibald Milloy, one of the old
est settlers in Vail township, and
well-known all over Redwood coun-
ty, was found dead in slough near
Wabasso about eight o'clock last
Saturday morning.
Mr.. Milloy had been in Wabasso
the evening before. 1t was II o.
clock when he started for home on
foot. When but block east of the
Catholic church he got into slough
where the deepest water was three
feet. He wandered around in the
water aud dead grass until he was
completely exhausted, and probably
chilled through Tumbling over he
caught bunch of dead grass in
either hand, and was found with
this grass in a death grasp Satur-
day morning.
Mr.. Milloy, not reaching home, a
search was commenced for him ear
ly Saturday morning. Young Archie
and an employee of the farm, drove
towards town, the employee stand
ing in the buggy and looking over
the fields with the hope of seeing
the object of the search. Arriving
at the ditch draining the slough in
question, the employee, looking
towards the slough, saw human
face above the water.
It was that of Archie Milloy.
The body was taken to the village
engine house. DR.. Chadbourn
notified the coroner, DR.. W. E. Belt
of this city. The latter, with Sher-
if Schueller, drove to Wabasso,
made thorough investigation, and
decided that an inquest was unnec-
essary.

Archie Milloy, one of Nature S
peculiar casts-and of the millions
that have been brought forth into
the world, he was without his
double. Standing out boldly alone
as one mould of his class, with but
the one weakness, over which his
friends always spread the mantle Of
charity, be was kind, jovial, good
hearted, sympathetic-never worry
ing over the morrow, always happy
for the day.
A student of the classics, a care
full reader of current events. he was
an interesting conversationalist at
all times, and it has been said that
he and one other farmer of this
county we're probably as we'll
posted on current events as any
one else in the state.
A successful man-no. He cared
not for success. Life in the open
fields, with the opportunity to 90
to town when he pleased, enough to
eat to-day, and bed of hay or
feathers for tonight, and Archie
Milloy was contented. The broad
fields that he once owned were to
him as straws-here to-day and
there tomorrow, and when he
passed away they were ''there in
another's name, with the one time
owner possessing only a contract
under an immense debt.
AS a husband and father, cut out
his one weakness, and he was ideal,
kind and devoted, seldom criticising,
always supplying, eager that he
should be ever paternal sunshine.
In politics, a Republican, sticking
to his friends and to the text with
tenacity worthy of the best party
leader. A fluent conversationalist

always defended his party and men
when they were attacked.
He was one of the first settlers of
Vail, township first named Center
on July 30, 1879, butt the name
being inadmissable, it was changed
to Vail in honor of Fred. Vail
Hotchkiss, then chairman of the
county board. It was ten years
before this, however, that those old
pioneers, John Tabor, James Long
bottom, Archie Milloy, Malcolm
Mcmillan and Henry Meyer pitched
their tents on the then bleak
prairies of the county and assisted
IN redeeming them. There Archie
resided ever since. There his first
wife went before him, and there he
married his second. His four or
five children have all attained their
majority. With the closing of the
grave the end of this cast came.
W. W. HUNT GIvEss "a SCARE.
On Friday evening a report was
brought to this city that W. W.
Hunt, an old resident of the county,
at one time a painter in this city,
and now residing on his farm, sec
ton 20, Redwood Falls township,
was missing. His team had been
found drowned in slough half a
mile north OF his place.
1t appears that Mr.. Hunt left
Redwood Falls about five o'clock
Thursday evening. Ahead of him
was neighbor who kept close
watch of him until they got several
miles out of town, when the
neighbor felt that the team would
take Mr.. Hunt home. But when
within mile of his place, Mr.. Hunt
got out of the wagon for the pur-
pose of arranging the harness on
one of the horses and the team ran
away.
Just what happened to Mr.. Hunt
between that hour and about day
light Saturday morning he.does not
know; neither do any of the people
residing in that vicinity, but after
searching parties were out all day
Friday, and we'll into the night,
and after additional parties had

ter chloroform. Saw about two pints
of blood come from the wound in the
patients back. About half an hour
after the operation, witness stated.
he wrote Welch's death statement.
Cross-examined, the witness stated,
that at no time before 12 o'clock,
noon, on August 20, was Welch un-
conscious, except during the brief time
he was under the influence of chloro-
form, about thirty minutes. Witness
identified the death statement, as the
one written by himself, and signed
by Welch.
Jas. P. Hearst was next called and
sworn; stated that he was superin-
tendent of the county hospital; was
present at the depot when Jack Welch
was taken from the train, and ac-
companied the wounded man to the
hospital his condition was very bad.
and Welch said to witness that ''it
was all off, with him. Witness was
present when Welch's death State
ment was taken; his mental condi-
tion was good, and he was of sound
mind and reason. 1t was about three
hours, witness thought, after the op-
Grafton that the death statement was
taken. In the afternoon, Welch sad
he felt badly; witness tried to cheer
him up. but knew well of his dying
condition. The patient said he would
like to live long enough to identify
the parties who sot him. He ques-
toned Weleh as to his home, his rela-

fense asked, was Welch informed at
any time that the parties who had
shot him had been caught" State

grounds that it was not a proper
time to bring out facts regarding the

Witness testified that Weica was
only unconscious while under the in
fuence of chloroform, which was
for about two hours. Witness was not
positive, but thought tnat the death
statement was taken about three
hours after the operation was per-
formed.
At this point the dying statement
of Welch was introduced and read,
and was admitted as evidence in the
case. 1t is given above.
