ARizONA'S DEMAND.

The time for ~supplication on the part of Arizona in the statehood mat ter has past. There has been too much of that heretofore; the territory has been too mild in its requests of Congress, it's wish to be left alone and accorded an opportunity to work out it's own destiny in it's own way has been put in the shape of a prayer rather than demand. The time has now arrived when we, as free-born American citizens. should go before the Congress and DEMAND that which is our right rather than pray that august body for that which we are entitled according to the consti- tuition of the United States.
 As the Phoenix board of trade reso- lutions aptly put it: Not as Fili- pinos from far distant colony, but as American citizens, entitled under the Declaration of Independence and the constitution of the United States to self-government, we respectfully request you nOl lO lOTCe us iulO d union wherein We would lose our identity and become subject to the domination of a people different in race, with different laws, industries and ideals.'
 While it is true that a presidential recommendation to Congress comes a long way from being a legislative en- actment, it is also true that MT Rooseyelts demand of Congress that Arizona and New Mexico be joined as one state will, in certain quarters, have some weight, the effect of which will be added work and responsibility for the friends of Arizona if the DO litical crime of the century" is to be defeated,
 Let Arizonans get together; forget petty political differences; 4aelegate sectional strife to the rear, and all join as one man in the battle against the territory's enemies.-Gazette

bill Tn the last Congress. They came to Arizona; they saw our wonderful resources; they mingled with our peo- pie, and what was the result. Every members of that party has since pledged himself to vote against the bill It is impossible to bring all of the Congressman and Senators to Arizona for the same purpose, but it is not impossible for us to go to Washington. There are two sides to the joint statehood question and it is high time that Arizonaus were telling their story where it will be heard.
 In the event that President Adams of the Anti-Joint Statehood League should call for volunteers for this purpose it will be the patriotic duty of every citizen who can financially bear the expense to respond to that call. This is the time that calls for a sacrifice of time and money ir order that no stone be left unturned 10 accomplish the defeat of this meas hre so inimical to the best interests of the Territory.

correspondent regards Aldrich's change of heart as a hopeful augury for remedial legislation. He states that if Aldrich had not been won over it would have been impossible to have gotten a measure through the senate for the reason that Aldrich dominates that body absolutely, and is such an adept in strategy that under the rules governing senatorial procedure even with a small minority he would have been able to balk any proposed en- actment, however meritorious.,
 This correspondents estimate of the gentleman from Rhode Island is given calmly and without a shade of color or a trace of emotion Nor Is there any 1ntent to direct public protest against this condition or the man himself. The article is simply re- citaI of the situation that prevails and the senator in control.
 Now" says the Joplin Globe, when it is considered that Aldrich is the special representative of preda- tory wealth, that his relationship to John D. Rockefeller, by marital ties and community of interests, is so close as to have inspired cartoonists of sacrilegious bent to present them under the admOnition, Whom God hath joined together, let no man put asunder'-when Aldrich's interests are dwelt upon, and, coupled with those interests, is the fact that Aid rich possesses such power as to side track any legislative wish of the peo- pie or the President, the necessity fol senatorial overhaul becomes very apparent even to the most stupid vo- tary of let well enough alone Some thing ought to be done to the United States senate and to certain clique of United States senators, and it ought to be done quickly"

THE ARIZONA PRESS ASSOCIATION.

It is to be hoped that the news paper men of Arizona will be in at- tendance in goodly numbers at the meeting of the Arizona Press Asso- citation. which has been called to meet at the Territorial capital on Dec. 27. It has been several years since the Association held a meeting and it is high time that the organization was infused with new life and placed on a practical. useful and entertaining working basis. Almost every profes- sion in the Territory has been organ ized into an Association for the pro tection of their mutual interests and for the benefit to be attained by the gathering together of men engaged in the same vocation in fife for lhe exchange of ideas and the discussion of vexatious questions thaJ ar: of daily occurrenye.
 No doubt almost every newspaper man in the Territory will be ;n Phoe, nix during the Fair commencing De cember 25 and the Review hopes that the newspaper brothers will arrange their plans so as to be present on the 27th. The Arizona Press Associa. ton is a good idea and should be car ried out. Better write for Iranspor' tation today and be on hand at Phoe nix. Brothers Akers, McCord, Dun bar and Vickers of the Capital City Press promise that there will be something doing.

k PATRIOTIC DUTY.

The Review understands that the executive committee of the Anti-Joint Statehood League will ask for volunteers from among the citizens of Arizona to go to Washington in a sOdy sometime during the month of January to protest against the pas sage of the Hamilton Joint Statehood Dill.
 Not long ago a delegation from Ok Iahoma passed through St. Louis en route to Washington, 200 strong, for tfse purpose of advocating the passage of the bill joining Oklahoma and In dian Territory together. We read n the telegraphic dispatches from Washington that delegations are ar irving there from New Mexico to urge The joint state hood bill Does Ari- Dona propose to sit down quietly at home, wrapped in a mantle of the martyr, and allow Congress to enter upon the consideration of so import ant bill without raising our voice in a manner that will be heard E is true that there are a few Arizo- naDs in Washington moving heaven and earth against the bill but they need help. They need the kind of help that carries enthusiasm with it and nothing can do this so well as a delegation of representative citizens from Arizona. We had an example of what enlightenment upon this sub iect can accomplish in the recent visit of the Congressional party.
 Among those Congressman, who ~ere in Bisbee about two months ago, there was not a member who did not Eote for the Hamilton Joint Statehood

frequently ignored. We trust that this one will be disregarded."
 Until the feeting craze for joint statehood passes away from the Washington atmosphere it would be well for Arizona conditions to be es- tablished and understood. Pending the joint-state agitation there should be only two parties in Arizona, the Patriots on the one side and the al lies of New Mexico on the other
 Patriotic Arizonans,, of all parties, must stand together and act together. They constitute fully 90 per cent of the population. Let the 10 per cent of the people. more or less, who are willing to feed Arizona to the hungry maw of New Mexico heard together, trade together, do each others pro- fessional business and associate with each other only. Let the 90 per cent that stand for Arizona, one and in divisible, now and forever, do the same thing with each other.
 Make treason odious. Mark the man in business in the community who is willing to give Arizona tC New Mexico and find some one true to Arizona to do business with. This is the way to stamp out treason.

THE SEWER PROPOSITION.

The Council has adopted a set Of plans looking to a municipal sewer proposition for the City of Bisbee. The plans are complete in every de- rail and shows careful consideration of the subject from an engineering standpoint. The Review believes that the sewer plans as presented by En- provide the city with an adequate sanitary sewer and the proposition so far received from the Bisbee-Naco Water company, charging S100 per month for 10000 gallons of water, estimated, for the purpose of supply ing the flushing tanks, is also in the opinion of the Review. a reasonable compensation
 The vexatious and most delicate question. however, remains to be dis. posed of; that is the increase if any, to be charged by the local water company to families on account of the installation of flush closets in dwell ings. The water rate in Bisbee at present for family use is three dollars per month where bath tub is not in use- Where a bath tub is used the family rate is five dollars per month. The rate to small business houses is Ehree dollars per months.
 We believe the residents of Bisbee are heartily in favor of a municipal sewer system. They are willing to assume a bonded indebtedness to the extent of sS0,000 as an insurance against pestilence and disease; they are willing to pay for the cost of con, nections with municipal sewer sys sem which will be operated for the common good af all and at the least expense. But, the vital point in connection with the proposed sewer system remains yet to be decided The committee from the Council i: still waiting to hear from the Bisbeo Naco Water Co. regarding the in crease in rates, if any, to private families. who under the proposed sew er ordinance would be compelled to make connections with the sewer sys tenn. The Review hopes that the men who comprise the Bisbee- -NacC Water Co, will be good in this mat Ter. Everything depends on the at situde that company takes regarding water rates to be charged after the installation of the sewer. N The Bis bee-Naco Water Co. has provided the city with an adequate supply of good water. Improvements in the water plant and the laying of new pipe has 6een an expensive undertaking, buI i: is also proving a valuable invest ment to the promoters of the enter prise. and in the case of the sewer II lies within the province of the wa ter company to make the municipa sewer an assured success, or to for ever kill it in it's inception.

According to a Washington tele. gram printed in the St. Louis Globe Democrat there is some opposition to the confirmation of Joe Alexander to be United States attorney for Arizona. Just what the grounds are upon which the opposition is based is not stated. Joe Alexander was a captain in the Rough Rider regiment and it may be expected that the president will stay with him to the extent of using the "big stick" on the opposing senators If necessary.
