PHOENIX. ARIZONA. JAN. s1. 1904
The Reality oi the Danger.

We do not know what effect the protests going up from every part or Arizona will have upon the honorable senators who propose to join Arizona and New Mexico together in unholy wedlock. We fear however, that 1t will have little. It is an unpleasantly significant fact that the people of this territory have not been asked for their views on the question of joint state hood. The expressions of opinion witch will be forwarded to Washington as a result of the meetings held throughout the territory have been volunteered.
 When the same disagreeable propo- sition of jointure was raised last spring Senator Quay and others who had eX- erted themselves in behalf of the om- nibus bill, were inclined to accept 1t as a solution of the tangle in which the senate found itself. But before their acceptance of it they asked our renre- sentative in congress to ascertain the will of the people of the territory in the matter. If it should transpire that they did not desire jcint statehood, these senators pledged themselves to oppose it as strenuOusly as they had supported the single statehood bill.
 But that was last spring. Time changes all things. Its rust may dull even the keen edge of a senator's sense of right and wrong and we have no reason to doubt that it is the inten- tion of a majority of the senators to dispose at this session of the territor- ial question, that is the question of making states of mainland territories, forever.
 Senator Quay has agreed to this proposition made to him by the en- emies of the west. He has alread, in troduced one joint statehood bill and he took with him to Florida the draft cf another which shall link Arizona and New Mexico together.
 Many persons in this territory have been inclined to regard such project as so unreasonable and abhorrent as to be absurd But those who attended the mass meeting at the Doris theater yesterday must have gone away with the impression that the peril is inn minent.
 The most favorable sign at the.meet- ing yesterday was the full realization of the danger and the deadly earnest ness of the people in any movement by which it may be averted.

We are informed by the Phoenix members of the Hearst syndicate that Hon. Henry r. Ashurst of Arizona, now visiting New York, yesterday pledged Arizona to Hearst. That IS not surprising since MT. Ashurst last summer made a comparison between Mir. Hearst and the Savior of Mankind. and the comparison was not invidious to MT. Hearst. We have sometimes wondered why the admiration of MT. Ashurst for MT. Hearst does not inn pei him to spell his own name Ash h -e-a -r-S-t

We will let him tell it: 1.-Two years ago during political campaign, caught cold after being overloaded, which irritated my throat and l was finally compelled to stop as could not speak aloud. In my extremitya friend advised me to use Chamberlain $ Cough Remedy. l took two doses that afternoon and could not believe my senses when found the next morning the infam- nation had largely subsided. took several doses that day, kept right on talking through the campaign, and I thank this medicine that l won my seat in the Council, for had not been ableto continue my meetings, I would no doubt have been unable 10 secure sufficient votes.

William J. Bryan has started a fire on the democratic ranch, and the or ganizers are trying to start back fire. But the Bryan fever is so strong never swallow the Chicago platform are becoming scared. MT. Bryan is credited with having said that he would not bolt any candidate to be named at St. Louis. yet he stands to- day ready to prevent any candidate he does not want from going on the ticket. Bryanism is not to be swallow ed by the American voters any more readily in 1904 than it was four years ago or eight years ago.

Senator Burton.

Very properly there is a disposition to suspend judgment in the case of Sena- tor Burton of Kansas, who has been in dicted on nine counts for having used his official position to bring about the withdrawal cf the pos.office fraud or der.
 '. is for the accused United States senator to meet the charges in count. and in fact. he can do nothing e.se. He is exempt from arrest during the present session of congress, but he can do nothing better than to insist upon an immediate hearing of his case. HIS plea is that he acted simply as the at torney of the concern and mercy went to the postoffice department to secure information.
 It is not to be expected that when a 'nan becomes a United States senato- he must, in the event of being a lawyer. give up his practice and his clien.s. At the same time United States send Tor should be careful in the selection of his clients, and particularly when the affairs of such clients have to do with the United States government. And this is what is charged against Senator Burton. His client-in the special case noted-was barred the use of the mails on a fraud order and Senator Burton is alleged to have made an ap- peal to have the order revoked. The senator is charged with having re- ceived g 800 for his work in the case, and this work is said to have been in the direction of using his official po- sition as a lever to influence another department of the government mach.n- cry.
 We are pleased to notice by the dis patches yesterday that the senator will insist upon complete vindication and that pending it he will take no part in the deliberationsso the senate and will not take part in politics.
 Senator Burton is no doubt honest in his protestations of innocence and his determination to have the matter venti- lated at once. He owes this not only to himself but to the people of his state He declares that he will not seek to e. cape-as other United States senators have-by the use of, f,technicalities. and that he will not, in view of being placed

MARRIED AND SINGLE BISHOPS

Several of the English bishops are unmarried. The bishops of London, Lincoln, St. Albans and Worcester are all bachelors. On the other hand, sew eral of the bishops have married twice, though there is none living who has achieved the record of the late Bishop Kyle, of Liverpool, in marrying three times. Two or three of the bishc Cs have large families. Dr. Sheepshanks bishop of Norwich, has had sixteen children, of whom twelve are living; the bishop of Ripon has family of eleven. and Dr. Bickersteth, late bishop of Exeter, is the father of twelve children, O..a = V- orr became a bishop while several other sons en- tered the church and some of his daughters married \clergymen.

The statement. if true, that the American people spend as much money for patent medicines as for bread does not necessarily disprove the common assertion that the Americans are the most intelligent people in the world. The recent government analyses show ing the percentage of alcohol in these compounds suggests that the purchas- CTS thereof are not as gullible as they might appear.

We might infer from the observa- tions of Judge Kent yesterday that the senate of the United States, or majority of it's members do not desire any more visits by the stork; that if he must come, that he may bring as few new senators as possible; that twins, triplets or quadruplets are es- pecially objectionable.

Every time a step is taken to I'M
prove the condition of the masses
of the people there is a howl from
the so-called conservatives that we
are drifting towards "socialism.' y
The word ''socialsm" is terrible
bugaboo to some people, yet in its
proper definition it means nothing
more than the elevation of man
kind generally, intellectually, NOR
ally and in his social relations.
Socialism is the growth of human
intelligence, as long as the masses
ofthe people were kept in ignorance
they were the slaves of their intel
lectual snperiors, which also fos-
tered the idea that certain indi-
vidnals, as kings, ruled by divine
right. Universal education Of the
people, the Just distribution or the
wealth produced by tue people,
rule by the people for the people
arc the primary and basic princi-
pies of socialism. There is moth
ing so terrible in this; the whole
trend of human history has had
the Development of this idea in
view, and while it has halted tenn
porarily at times it has never stop
ped, nor will it do so while the
brain Of man develops and grows.
Human nature improves and hui
man solfishncss shrinks with the
intellectual growth of mankind,
and thus the ''socialism" expands.

4 leading commercial club in

recommendation CT government
control over railroad freight rates
through the Interstate Commerce
Commission. Railroad managers,
however, oppose such restrictions
on the grounds that the govern
ment has no right to interfere in
the conduct of the railroads under
corporate ownership. This oppo-
ton on part Of the railroads to the

Of the leading trunk lines of the
country are dominated by trust in

as they now appear freight rates
are equable, but by a system of
rebates certain shippers are favor
ed by the railroads to the disad-
vantage of competitive interests.
Such favored shippers are the
Standard Oil Co., the Beef Com
bine, and others. 1t has been
largely through the cooperative
favoritism of the railroads that
these concerns have largely mo
nopolized the markets in their
products. 1t is not the purpose OF
the Administration to make it g
function of the government to
make the freight tariffs, but only
to supervise them to the extent
that no individual interest shal

sented by the St. Louis commercial
club, is quick to see the Justice of

Renting " ClEninc.

To own home. ''be it ever SO
humble. gives one satisfactory
feeling, q thankful, settled sensi-
b!Iity, which is very restful to the
nerves.
One can rent perhaps, much
better farm than one can afford to
buy. The land may be very fer
tile and yield greater returns than
the one you could buy, but by the
time yon diyide, haul and store
your landlords share, then feed
your stock on bis land and fertilize
it for the next renter, I believe
owning your own farm would
prove the best investment.
So few places yon can rent have
an orchard at your disposal and
often the landlord wants to run
his fields Of grain so close Ito the
house that he objects to your rails
ing poultry.
Now, with the land your own,
the young orchard will soon grow,
the berry patches flourish, truck
patches cover acres and the land
be built up year after year. Your
stock will be in no ones way. 1ou
will be free from censure, as your
own boss, and will feel stimulated
to do your best, as on you will rest
the successful management of
your acres. In these parts, and
the land is by no means rich, but
timbered, rough and stony, | do
not know of an eighty acres but
what would make living for Il
family if worked and managed
we'll.
A man makes a better citizen if
he is IL settled land holders for
then he is interested in the grade
of his ncighborhood, good roads,
good schools, and will use his in
terest to secure them. No one can
hardly use the plea that they can
not afford to own Il home. You
can, if you are paying rent, for
why cannot that much be paid
yearly on your home to be? Buy
it, move on it, and then work and
pay for it. You maybe cannot
buy the best place in the country,
but there is sure to be some small
place that will sell cheaply. Web

Better then be contentedly settled
