this part of the State.
We have beer going over the Demo-
cratic situation here" Mr.. Murphy said.
'and have been talking over campaign
plans. l would like to repeat that ram
many Hall will leave nothing undonc
to help forward the candidacy Of Judge
Parker. and when the votes are counted

"Let the Dead Rest"
Mr.. Murphy's attention was called to
the assertion made the night before by
Senator McCarTen that he would con-
tinue to be the chairman In fact as well
as in name Of the Democratic State
committee
Well. 1 don't want TO say anything
more about it. Mr.. Murphy said.
But Senator McCarren says ne will
have charge of the campaign funds, it
was suggested.
Il won't say anything about that,
either Mr.. Murphy began. Then, after
few seconds thought. he added:
'All l want to say about Senator Nc
Carren is that l have great respect for
the dead. Let the dead rest
No Sectarian Fight.
Unless there is a decided change in
Democratic opinion during the next four
weeks Democrats think It unlikely that
a candidate for United States Senator
will be put forward in the State con-
vention which Will meet probably at
Saratoga on September 20 This is in
spite of the fact that. at the State COM
rlittee meeting held last September. a
resolution was adopted at Charles +.
Murphys suggestion, pledging the Dem
Ocrats to nominate a candidate for the
Senate In the coming convention, so that
the voters might in way have a chance
TO pass upon his merits.
Two Candidates.
Back Of the desire on the part of the
party managers TO avoid taking this
radical departure this year IS the fear
that II might reopen the Murphy-Mc-
Carren warfare at time when it is
believed that truce has been forced
until after election. The Tammany Hall
leader IS known to be in favor of send
ing Congressman W. Bourke Cochran to
the Senate and IL IS believed by many
that a promise Of Tammany's support
for this honor was made to Mr.
Cochran by Mr. Murphy in January last
when Cochran was induced to return 70
Congress. That McCarren would fight
COCkrau's nomination for the Senate IS
generally believed also. as McCarren
himself Is known TO entertain ambitions
20 sit In the Senate at Washington as
a promotion from the senate at Albany.

Mckinley that no policy will be fol-
lowed needlessly exposing the business
interests Of the country TO the peril
OF war.
Usurping Power of Congress.
And then the President is charged
with usurping the functions Of Congress
in its power to declare war in the Pan
anna matter. The labyrinthian reason
ing which is required to make the Presi-
dents conduct in the Panama matter
a violation OF his constitutional powers
and a trespassing upon the COngression-
al functions is a proper subject OF Won
der.
I'm what respect did Mr.. Roosevelt IN
this violate the Constitution Ii Is said
that by 50 doing he might have brought
on war and that the power 10 declare
war Is, by the Constitution, IN the Con-
gress. But the President Is charged
with the management of our foreign
relations; he directs ambassadors and
ministers as to the course they are 10
and at any act OF theirs some foreign
government might take umbraGe and
declare war.
Would that make his act, though
plainly within his constitutional func-
tion. unconstitutional? It has been de-
clared over and over again by the Su-
preme Court Of he United states that II
IS the proper junction OF the President
Of the United States. through the Secre-
tary Of State. to recognize the existence
Of foreign governments, and that this
IS binding upon Congress and upon the
Supreme Court.
Within His Authority.
Therefore, in recognizing the Repub-
lie OF Panama the President Of the
United States was plainly within his
constitutional duty. and by so doing he
has taken step which has distin-
guished his administration over all those
which went before Our course OF deaf
ing with Colombia has been character
led by great patience and honor and
probity.
''Colombia's course has been vacillat-
ing and dtshonOrable. Indeed, after the
Republic of Panama had been formed,
the dictator Reyes. in charge of the
government, agreed 10 confirm the re-
1ected treaty. showing cOnclusively that
he had had control in the senate In the
first place and that the treaty was re-
Jected at his instance with a view to
squeezing more money out Of the

What Parker's speech SAD.

Judge Parker's reference to this sub
Ject in his speech Of acceptance was as
follows.
The accident of war brought the
Philippines into our possession and we
are not at liberty TO disregard the re-
spOnsibility which thus came tC US, but
that responsibility will be best sub
served by preparing the islanders as
rapidly as possible for self-government

sonably prepared for it

STATEHOOD? SINGLE OR JOINT.

Arizona is face 10 face with a crisis in its history that few people in Ari zona seem to realize. Before the month of March has come congress will have decided whether Arizona E 10 be linked together with New Mexi co and aomitJed as a state, or whether We are to be allowed 10 retain om present boundaries and eke out our existence alone as a territory.
 This question will be decided dur. ing the next three months. There is no argument based upon fairness, or in accord with the constitution of the United States, or that Is susained by a single precedent in the history of this country, in favor of the joining of the two territories of New Mexico and Arizona together, and making this vast area into one state. Especially is the scheme of the supporters of the joint statehood bill made unbenable when this action is proposed 10 be taken in direct opposition to the wishes of all the people of Arizona and of at least one-hslf of the population of New Mex ico.
 Arizona desires to be Left alone if the present congress is opposed to sin gle statehood for this territory at this time The people of Arizona protest against the right of Congress to thrust them into an alliance that would be obnoxious and detrimental to the best interests of this territory.
 Arizona has protested more than once against this outrage. In the pigeon holes of the desk in the com mittee room of the committee on ter ritories, are hundreds of resolutions and petitions against this bill adopted by every town in Arizona. At this time further public protest is useless. The Governor of Arizona and our Del egate to Congress are in Washington armed with these documents, but Bis bee people can strengthen their argu- ments by appeals made directly to eastern senators through the men who are interested in this section in min ing way, and number of whom are of high influence and standing in their states. The aid of such men as Thos. F. Cole. Phelps, Dodge & Co, of New York. W. c. Greene, George Tener, and a dozen othera should be ac- quainted with the danger that threat ems Arizona at this time, and urge them to intercede in our favor with the senators from their states.
 Arizona mining interests will suffer when the sheep and cattle interests of New Mexico dictate the government and taxation of the proposed new state. ...,. .
 There is no time to lose. The dan ger is real.
