IF REvERlDGE WERE IN ARiZONA'S PLACE.
(TucsOn Post.

oblivion some years ago by turning tup in the United States Senate and iwho. since that time has been posing las statesman, author and advocate lof joint statehood. is about to be united by the bonds of matrimony to Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter of the President, if we are to believe the lpress reports.
 1 Doubtless the much renowned Sen lator from the Hoosier state consid-
 CTS that he has made a very fine lmatch in securing the fair Alice for his own and if it were in the power lof the people of Arizona to interfere in his matrimonial affairs and they chose to do so, there would be a storm Iof protest from the Hoosier Senator His indignation and rage would know no bounds. and if you have ever seen the Hon. Albert J. in dramatic fit of anger on the floor of the Senate,
 you know how that little frame can be shaken by wrath.
 More indignant still would be the Senator from the Hoosier state if i some friend of Arizona were to Haunt in his face affidavits from men of his own state despised at home but un- known for their infamy abroad, to the effect that he was unworthy of his choice. slandering his character and ' lreputation and pronouncing him uG fit to lead the daughter of the highest | parsonage in the land to the aIJar. He would cry traitor" and heap abuse upon a people who thus dared to in- terferc in his affairs and take advant- age of the spite of some traitor and enemy at home.
 And after all, this is just about what MT. Beveridge is doing at Washington. lie is trying to force on great com mon wealth an obnoxious union with a Territory which Arizona considers has not reached her own high plane. The two sections which ne proposes 10 join in this unholy alliance are not congenial. They differ in customs. laws and institutions. A few enemies at home may islander Arizona and fur nish ammunition for the attack, but the only stain on the Territory's name lies in the fact that they have been permitted to dwell in a land whose resources and attractions they cannot appreciate.
 If Senator Beveridge will take the case home to himself, at this oppor- tune time, he will realize Arizona's situation. He will recognize the un- | justness to Arizona in the infamous joint statehood proposal which he has been fathering on the floor of the Senate.
 If under the present circumstances. he is enlightened and sees the error of his way, the people of Arizona will forgive his past indiscretions and when he takes the fair Alice to be his
 bride, we'll wish him an everlasting Honeymoon.
 Did YOU ever notice a group of lit tie girls between the ages of If and l1S chattering away on a corner, says

 sit near such a group, listen and hear if about every tenth word IS about Iwhat The said" If it is. you have found some more of the "he said
 girls, and they are not the incest lit
 tie girls in the world. The "he said

 ter clothes than their fathers can af ford. so that the neighbors wonder
 what their mothers can be thinking
 about. The "hesaid" girls too ofter
 think more of the boys than of their
 books. and frequently fail Io gel
 through school. They are in for z Igood time. and have nothing in their
 heads but hairpins and two-steps. Sometimes natures takes d girl out lof the '.he said' family and makes 8 fine woman of her, but generally she

 There is nothing So sweet as a } frank. open-hearted girl. But the
 boy-struck girl is an abomination. Int whole. matter rests with the girls mother. She can either bring up one
 of the ''hesaid" girls. or she can have daughter to. be proud of.
