Lodge and Platt of Connecticut, the main guys" of the senatorial combine. it is not safe to say at this time that the bill is in a better position than 1t was a fortnight ago. Still the signs are most encouraging and they inspire the friends of the bill to renewed eff forts. It is likely that before the end of the week the signs will be more clearly indicative of the result.

The Twenty second legislature was opened at noon yesterday on the stroke of the clock. Both chambers were eIaborately decorated under the direction of Secretary Stoddard. All the old unsightly furniture which dis graced the new capitol building two years ago was hidden out of sight. The chairs and desks had been revarnished and everything was spick and span. The galleries were crowded long be- fore the hour of opening. Many of the occupants were visitors in the city who had been drawn by curiosity. There were others though and they were in the majority who had a stronger mo- tive than curiosity. They were known by their anxious gaze upon the mem bers as they came into the chambers. They were those who wanted to assist the Twenty in the capacity of clerks, messengers, pages and watch men.
 Both houses subsequently showed a disposition to be assisted. They also wanted to do the square thing by the whole territory. They would have been willing to give cIerkships, janitorships, ressengerships and pageships to every body without reference to age, sex or previous condition of servitude but the illiberal architect who planned the legis lative chambers and the committee rooms had made them too small to accommodate all the 122, 900 people who were said by the last census to be resi- dents of the territory.

THE MACHINERYIN MOTION.

The house was called to order by George U. Collins, the oldest member, and Rev. L. J. Hegepeth aske1 divine guidance for the next sixty days. The TOll-cau developed that all the mem bers were present but Assemblyman O'DOnnell of Cochise whom a colleague explained was detained by illness. Curt w. Miller was appointed temporary clerk and the following committee of credentials was appointed: J. D. Mar lar of Maricopa, w. A. Parr of Navajo and Steve ROemer of Cochise. There was a recess of fifteen minutes after which the report of the committee was received. The oath of office was ad ministered to the members by Associ- ate Justice Doan and the business of orga anization was begun.
 What ensued occasioned no surprise to the readers of The Republican. The caucus programme which had been given in detail in this paper yesterday morning was carried out. T. T. Pow CTS was put in nomination for speaker on the democratic side by W. A Rowe of Yavapai. N. Gonzales of Apache nominated F. s. Ingalls, of Yuma mere ly for the purpose of showing that the republican organization was intact. The result of the vote was 19 for Pow CTS and for Ingalls,. MT. Ingalls, had voted for Powers thereby throwing away any chance of election he might have had.
 MT. Powers on being escorted to the chair expressed his qualification at the situation; not so much that he had been raised to eminence as that it had been done with such singular unanim- ity, a fact that he believed must be equally gratifying to every democratic heart. He believed that the events of the day would solidify the democratic party in the territory. Mir. Powers was plainly labOring with the notion that he had been elected chairman of A democratic convention.
 Curt w. Miller was elected chief clerk and R. $. Maclay his assistant. Tn latter election was slightly out of time for though an assistant chief clerk was

In 1870. then. we exported 1874 per
cent OF the total value OF our farm
products and in 1900 22.5 per cent.
Thus out Of every $I00 worth of farm
products sold we sold in 1900 S22.50
worth abroad, willie in 1870, at the be-
ginning OF high Protection--to some
body--we sold only $3.50 worth
abroad The protected home market
OF tho farmer appears 10 be getting
farther away from home.
A similar result can be shown In 9TH
er ways. While population has In
crcascd only 220 per cent since 1850 or
143 per cent since 1850 the value of our
agricultural products exported has In.
creased 070 per cent since 1850 and 220
per cent since 1850. This indicates
clearly that our farmers are more de
pendent upon foreign markets today
than in 1850 or 1860. during our low
tarln period. Again, taking the aver
ages for the first ave and for the last
FIVE years given In the statistical alb
stracts we learn that from 1871 20 1876
we exported 3.13 per cent of our corn
and cornmeal. while from 1893 10 1909
we exported S.22 per cent. For the
ilrst period we exported 1922 per cent
OF our wheat and for the second period
1912 per cent. These figures indicate
that "home markets for farm prod
ucts are not crossing the ocean rapidly
I'm this direction at the beck OF "protec-
ton" In fact, they are "back pedal.
ing" and getting farther away. The
farmer must now use a long distance
telescope to see his protected home
market"
The protected homo market Is, in

Window glass is O necessity I'm all
northern attitudes md yet the people
OF the United States support the policy
OF a high tariff that prevents compe-
tition In that necessary article. The
duty Oh window glass was increased
nearly 100 per cent by the passage OF
the Dingley bill and was intended to
be prohIbltIve OF the importation OF
glass manufactured I'm foreign coun-
tries. Having procured this monopoly
OF window glass, the combine that con
trolls tho mapufacturo Of II has dou.
bled the price. and the market Is much
oversuppIied. Instead Of reducing the
price, the trust shut down tho facfo-
ries, and no window glass has been
manufactured by the trust since last
spring, and there Is still a large stock
on hand that Is awaiting q market.
The glass blowers are therefore idle
and, having formed n labor trust Of
their own to control wages and re-
strict the number OF workingmen and
entered into n combination with tho
window glass trust not TO furnish glass
blowers for independent or rival fac.
tories, they have cut or all avenue of
employment until the trust can start
the fires again.
This Is protection run mad, 10 the un.
doing OF the American people.
Tho window glass trust IS protected
by the tartn Of 60 to 100 per cent and
is charging double what IT'S product IL
worth. The labor trust r. paid enor.
nous wages when employed, but that
is less than half the time, 50 the yearly
income Of the glass blowers is not
more than half what their per diem
rate IS.

POLITICAL PROMISES.


Ncpuoiscnn Treachcry shocks One
OF the Party'sN spelibinaers.
Hon. II. 9. Rodcy. who rcpcs6,ts
New Mexico In congress and who Is
considered Republican spcllbIndcr OF
prominence, was invited by Chairman
Dick OF tho Ohio Republican state COM
mitteo TO stump Ohio this fall. ue
promptly refused. giving this reason: /:
''There Is one statement Ia tho Rcpuh.
lican-rlatform OF Ohio to which l can
not consistently subscribe. and that In
tho statement that senator Hanna's
rc-clection Is a distinct national do
mand. i was so shocked by his action
on the fioor or the United Stntes senate
ON the 10th OF last January, rcpudiat.
Ing tho promises OF the Republican
party TO the territories, although hc
was chairman OF the national Rcpub-
lican party. that l cannot conscien-
tously take any part In the campaign
to re-elect him."
The pledge to give the territories
statehood was but one OF tho promises
that werc made by the Republican ma
uonai convention. Reciprocity was
promised. but the reciprocity treaties
which were negotiated by Mckinley
hnvo never been ratified And yet the
protective duties OF the Dingicy bill
were purposcly placed so high that tho
concession made 20 foreign countries
under tho treaties negotiated would
still lcnvc ample protection TO the
trusts. But the trusts wanted all tho
swag that the tariff bill gave them.
and their influence with the Ropublic.
an congress was sufficient to prevent
the ratification OF tho reciprocity trcn-
ties.
The promise I'm the Republican plat.
form TO favor legislation that would
prevent monopolics, ito limit produc.
ton or 70 control prices" has not been
redeemed and never Will be until tho
present leaders of the Republican par
~ are retired to private life, for the
trusts and monopolies furnish their
bread OF life-campaign funds.
The promises to labor have not been
redeemed. The Republican. platform
declared, I'VE favor more effective
restriction OF the iinmlgra ton OF cbcnp
labor from foreign countries" That
this promise has not been kept is pat.
cnt from the fact that tho present i'm.
migration exceeds that OF any other
year In the history Of the country.
In fact. the exception Is where the
promises made in the national Repub.
iican platform have been redeemed, yet
all Mr. Rodcy objects TO Is that tho
comparatively small promise made TO
the territories wns repudIated by sena.
tor Hanna. Neither he nor any other
Republican OF prominence Is refusing
to go on the stump because the grenter
promises that affect vast numbers of
the people, und some OF them all the
people. have been forgotten or pur-
posely overlooked
Republican promises are, most of
them. intended to fool the people. and
they do fool good many OF them, but
not all OF them always.
