Everything the learned senator said
applies to Arizona as she is today.
Big enough, the Lord knows, without
another acre of ground; rich enough in
elements to one day outrival some of
the oldest and wealthiest.
But we propose to play this deal
through, single out to cases. Arizona
is much better Off as a territory, under
the reign of the carpet baggers, so
unkindly referred to in the Tucson
Star, than she would be with the
bunch of New Mexican professional
politicians and grafters added to the
present stock. They are good poll
ticians over in New Mexico under
stand their business, and would swallow
the Arizona crowd at mouthful.
No, Senator; Arizona never was
small-she couldn't be. She is big
enough, populous enough to become a
state in the union, or, if you don t
think so, she is broad minded enough
to wait until she can pass the civil
service examination on qualifications.
Every good Arizonan objects to
having this territory Republicanized
by the New Mexican federal appoint
ees; even the wise republicans see il
in that light.

The Pueblo Chieftain, one of the most
influential of Colorado journals, has
the following to say on the joint state
hood issue, and every word breathes
the fire of true western spirit. No
collar is worn by the Chieftain
Oklahoma ought to be admitted, and
Arizona ought to be admitted, and
New Mexico ought to be admitted,
and this enlargement of the national
union would be matter of justice, not
only to the people of those three ter
ritories, but also to all the people of
all the western states. AS for the
joint statehood plan, that would be a
worse injustice than to leave the ter
ritories as they are, and that plan is
only advocated by those persons that
are hostile to western interests.

Stunning the duties of its Office desires
the hearty cooperation of every citizen
of the territory in making the first
meeting a great success.
The last Legislature appropriated
SIS, 900 to be used in the erection of ex-
hibit buildings and the plans for these
are now being prepared; they will be
erected on the grounds of the territorial
fair association one mile northwest of
Phoenix; this association has raised
$50, 600 which will be used in paying for
eighty acres of land purchased, build
ing full regulation mile track with an
inside one-half mile track, with grand
stand, stables and other buildings and
for all purposes necessary to make a
success of the enterprise. Work is now
commencing on the grounds and will be
vigorously pushed until everything is
finished, and as the funds are ample we
anticipate as complete and attractive a
plant as could be desired.
The appropriation of $500 annually
will enable the commission to offer
some attractive premiums and it is pro-
posed to make the fair so general in its
nature as to embrace every interest of
our great territory. To that end we
want every individual and every county
to exhibit any production they wish and
the best possible premiums will be
offered.
We will devote one section to min
ing exhibit and wish we could get every
mine in the territory interested to make
a display of its ore. This being our
greatest industry should be one of the
leading features of the fair and we will
endeavor to arrange for this display to
be cared for permanently. We hope to
hear from the mining men generally as
to the exhibit they will make and the
space they will require.

THE BEvERIDGE TRIBUTE

Senator Beverage of Indiana did
some rainbow painting anent the sub
ject of statehood for Arizona which is
being quoted by the two Arizona pa
pers advocating the joint idea.
1t reads very well-in spots:
"And what glorious state this new
Arizona would be, Mr.. President fit
sister for that imperial commonwealth
upon her east on whose brow the Lone
Star shines, and of that mighty pacific
state upon her west which faces the
greatest ocean of the world, with q
coast line longer than that of most OF
the countries of the earth; Arizona,
second in size and eminent in wealth
among the states of the greatest OF
nations; Arizona, standing midway be.
tween California and Texas, three
giant commonwealth guarding the re.
public's southwestern border; Arizona,
scattering with one hand the fruits OF
the tropics and with the other hand the
products of the temperate zone; Ariz-
ona, youngest of the Union and the
fairest; how proud of her her citizens
would be; how just place she would
hold in the nations councils. Not
querulous, irritable, and contentious be-
cause of consciousness of her scant
population, but large minded, generous,
and conciliatory because of the know
ledge of her greatness; not apologize
for her numbers, but serene in her popu-
lar equality with her associated states;

great; not Arizona the provincial, but
Arizona the national; not Arizona the

Arizona the child of the nations WIS
dom! How its people and the people
of the republic will glory in such an
Arizona! For it is such magificent
Arizona this bill will create. No won
der selfish interests dare not let the
people vote for or against such an Ariz-
ona, for all their wealth and all their
organization could not defeat the pee

such question.

Of the Salt river valley-will be con-
veyed by conduit across deserts and
through mountain ranges to Los An
geles. And it is contemplated that the
supply will be sufficient for all south
ern California, and that ultimately San
Diego, still further distant by 120 miles
from the source of the supply, will be
furnished with water.
A year ago five of the leading bust
ness men of the city were appointed to
devise plans for an augmented water
supply, sufficient for the needs of the
city both for the present and for gen
erations to come. The commissioners
have just completed the plan above out
lined-having secured options on all the
necessary property before announcing
the scheme.
That the plan will be approved by
the people of Los Angeles would not
seem to admit of doubt. The lack of
water is the most serious condition
with which the city has to deal. While
the population has been increasing at
a prodigious rate, the water supply has
been steadily diminishing for several
years. The decrease has been due to
two causes-a lessened rainfall, and
the taking of water from the San Fer
nando river by ranchers for irrigation.

THE YEllOWS HURT

William +. Curtis, the well known
correspondent of the Chicago Record
Herald, in recent communication to
that paper, points out that the city of
Denver has been greatly injured in its
reputation by unwise ne wspapers. He
shows that the impression created in
the east that Denver is headquarters
for sensations, political conspiracies,
corruption, dramatic marriages and di-
vorces, is entirely wrong, but that it is
due to yellow journals printed in the
city itself.
These journals, he says, magnify
everything. If somebody falls into an
ordinary ditch he is represented as fall
ing into bottomless chasm; if some
servant girl receives legacy of few
thousand dollars from an uncle up in
the mountains she is described as an
heiress of millions. Everything that
happens, no matter how trivial or COM
monplace, is magnified intoa sensation.
Denver is not the only yellow-journal
cursed city in America and all others so
afflicted are paying the penalty of con-
tinual misrepresentation. Facts are
good enough and it is not pleasant to
read what is evidently untrue on the
face of it simply because the words are
plausibly hung together.
Arizona silver belt., 1905-08-03
REWARDS ARE INCREASED

Governor Kibbey has issued pro-
clamation offering on behalf of the
territory reward of $500 for the cap
ture and conviction of the murderer or
murderers of Sam S. Plunkett and
Edward L. Kennedy. The supervisors
of ella county offer $500 and the family
of the former added $3.50 to this amount,
making total of $l050. This incentive
should enlist the keenest attention of
all peace officers within radius of
many hundred miles and it is to be
hoped their efforts will be crowned
with success in the near future.
