lock. one of the prominent republicans of Arizona and Cochise county, since the iastseiection. declared that he was in favor of joint statehood if Arizona was to have statehood at all. Other republicans in Douglas are known to he very weak kneed in their opposition to the joint statehood bill.
 When the joint statehood bill passes, what will be the policy in Arizona? Will we participate in the formation of constitution and then turn our attention to defeating its adoption! We take it that ninety per cent of the citizens of Arizona will be willing to fight this monstrous proposition to the last ditch and it may be that there will be opposition to the territory taking any part in the formation of consti- tuition, but we believe this would be mistake. There will be enough people in Arizona to hold the required elec- ton and send delegates from this part nf the new state to the constitutional convention and that being the case we should say it will be the best policy to pursue to elect the strongest men in Arizona to the constitutional conven- sion and fight for every advantage possible for Arizona.
 In the meantime let the press and people of the territory continue to protest against the passage of the in- iquitious measure.

WHAT SHALL WE Dos

Notwithstanding the election of Mark Smith to congress the danger of joint statehood for Arizona and New Mexico is by no means thing of the past. It is still the policy of the re- publican party and the enor mons vote received by that party at the recent election will embolden the epublicsns to carry out every policy upon which they stood before the people. The election of Mark Smith will insure the determined opposition of the democrats in the senate to the joint statehood bill when it is proposed in thai body next winter; but if the republicans stand pat on the merger bill they will pass it, and perhaps this winter. as the democratic senators will see the futil- ity of fighting against the proposed outrage uuless there should be some sign of backing down from it by the republicans
 If the republicans next winter show a determination to pass the joint state- hood bill no one need be surprised to see many republicaas in this terri tory hur1ying to get into the admins trstion hznd wagon on the question of ssafshood. If the joint statehood bill ;sspassed it will have many defenders among the republicns in this territory. Already there is some expressions of approxal among sspublicans.C .zzDsSr-,,

WOULD BE WELL

The following is ap editorial which appeared in the last edition of the Florence Blade. We would heartily favor such a measure 8 would be glad to see the legislature pass it. along with some other -refoImatory measures which would be creditable to Arizona:
 The necessity for an educational clause in the general election laws cannot, with reason. be denied. The man who csn neither read nor write cannot have a proper conception of the duties. privileges and responsibilities of citizenship and his vote is con- stant danger to good government. He can be too easily misled. There are rare exceptions to this rule. of course. There are few men who can neither read nor wvite who are possessed of unusual good natural sense and who have been reared in the midst of an environment that enabled them to acquire correct knowledge of the principles of good republican govern
 ment, and because thereof car vote intelligently. But they form less than one per cent of the iiliterate voters.
 This is subject that should command the serious and careful consideration of our legislators. Many of the older states have already taken action on it. In Massachusetts, tor instance, @
 man must be able to read clause
 from the constitution of the United Stategs s.5 yute sentence in the pres eaSk Sfstfese1eotion judges before he can vote. provided he be challenged upon the ground of iiiitsrscy. Snch law is not only in the interest of good government but also in the inter- est of education, for when the voter learns he must be able to read and write before he can exercise the right of suffrage, he win lose no time in qualifying himself if he hss any inter- est in the character of the government under which ne lives.

GOVERNOR ERODE


 The newspapers are indulging in speculation and surmising as to the probable future cf Governor Brodie- It is suggested that our governor is to be promoted to some higher position by President Roosevelt and the return this week of Governor Brodie to Wash ingson may be taken as an incident confrmatory of the reports.
 The Review, for one, would be glad to see Governor Brodie remain in the governors office in Arizo=a. but , at the same time would be glad to see him get another position which would suit him better In the history of Ari zona few of the men who we're appoint ed to be governor have given the uni versal satisfaction that has eharater' ized the administration of Governor Brodie. His administration of tine affairs of the territory has been suc- cessful and he has retained the respect end confidence of the people. He has been earnest in his work -son all lines which promised to better the condi- tions of Arizona and his withdrawal from the office of governor would be cause for general and sincere regret.
 In the last Legislature Governor Bro die stood firm for every measure which promised to benefit the people and his influence was not narrowed by the sem blance of partisan spirit Among the democrats were some of his closest advisors and in the strenuous fight which ended in the final passage of the ''Cowan bill'' Governor Brodie was bold and determined on the. side. of the taxpayers of Arizona.
 Should Arizona lose Governor Brodie the territory can furnish several dis tinguished republicans to fill the office of governor. but we do not believe any of them will be able to come up to the standard of Governor Brodie. 80 far as universal popularity with the people of the territory is concerned. Among those who might succeed to the Ar: zona governorship we know of Dont who would be more acceptable Go ths people of southern Arizona than th' present territorial secretary. MT Nichols.

VATICAN CONTROVERSY.
Council Of Ministers Makes oflcia


Announcement.
PARIS, May 24.-The council OF ministers
has considered the Vatican controversy and
in an official note says
THE government is satisfied with the
authenticity OF the reported protest sent by
the Vatican to the powers. and therefore
has decided to recall NJ. Nisard, leaving
routine business In the hands Of the third
secretary Of the Vatican embassy
M. Nisard. former ambassador OF France
to the holy see. who has been recalled, ar
rived here yesterday and conferred with
Foreign Minister Delcasse relative to the
closing negotiations with the papal secre-
tary of state. Cardinal Merry del Val
1t is announced that the ambassador was
recalled In the full sense of the diplomatic
term, the French government having ADAM
dcned its first plan to give him indefinite
leave of absence. The rupture Is further
emphasized by the determination Of France
of legation at the Vatican. When the rup-
ture was first decided upon it was the in
tention to continue M De Navenne at
Rome, as charge daffaires, for the pur-
pose of transacting routine business. NJ De
Navenne is now here on leave and 1t has
been decided that he shall not return to
take up his duties. This leaves M. Sarti-
ges. with the rank of second secretary, to
carry on the routine business of the Vatican
embassy
Public statements of NJ De Navenne APP
pdTcutiy ueIenulHS the VaUCan course
have contributed to the decision that he
shall not return.
The papal nuncio. Mgr. LorenzelH, gave
out an exclamation today of his statement
that he would not leave because Rome had
no taste for replying to provocations" The
latter expression was construed as likely
to give further offense to the French gov
eminent and as leading to another diplo-
matte incident. Mgr. Lorenzelli. therefore,
explains that the word "provoca TONS did
. not refer to the action of the French gov
ernment. which had perfect right to with
draw Its ambassador. but to the provoca-
lions of French newspapers In suggesting
his recall
President Loubet made a significant
speech today in connection with the holiday
at Arras. The Bishop of Arras welcomed
M. Loubet as the representative of the
union of church and state. In replying, M.
Loubet said:
your reference to the union Of church
and state appeals to q condition OF calm
which the government heartily desires and
which the president of the republic well
comes. Your action and that Of your clergy
can be particularly efficacious In the realf-
zation Of this satisfactory condition. for
see therein an assurance OF peace for our
country and greatness for the republic"

was forced to appeal to an American con-

The ladrones, as these nomadic bands of

which means robbing and marauding In

than that imposed upon ordinary robbers

UNITED STATES STEEL
SYNDICATE 0ISS0LvES
Unde rsxrIters Lose $4,000. 900 In Con-
version Of Stock Into Bonds Of
the Big Concern.

New York special: Members Of the
syndicate formed to convert United
States steel stock into bonds have
been notified OF its dissolution by j.
p. Morgan G. Co. and have been asked
for payment. II is believed generally
In Wall street that the syndicate has
suffered a loss, and the amount Is es-
timated from $l0.000,000 to $4,000
900. II Is not easy to make an exact
statement OF general results. mas
much as this varies with individual
members according to the price paid
by them for the preferred stock
which they put In.
II will be remembered that the syn
dicate undertook TO guarantee the
subscription OF 100000 900 per cent
bonds, paying therefor so per cent In
preferred stock. taken at par. and 20
per cent In cash. The syndicate has
turned In its preferred stock, for
which IL received bonds, but its total
payment OF cash will amount to
something more than 100000. for
which 1t receives s20.000.000 bonds
Assuming. for purposes OF argument,
that the preferred stock turned In cost
on the average 95. and that the bonds
which II receives are worth rs, the
syndicate operations would represent
a loss of about 10 per cent. The loss
would be smaller in so far as some
members OF the syndicate may have
paid less than 95 for their preferred.
while, on the other hand. some may
have paid more.
The dissolution OF the stock con-
version syndicate will. 1t is reckoned.
