Bisbee daily review., 1905-11-15

The return of Captain Rynn1ng will probably close the incident of the loss of Thomas Grindell and party. The recovery of the camp outfits of the party and the finding of the dead an- imals, and the fact that all signs of trails of the missing men are ob- liberated, leaves no further hope that any of them still live. The iudg- ment of all alike, pioneer, plainsman and tenderfoot, is that it was very foolhardy on the part of Grindell- to attempt a trip into such a dangerous country. Those who accompanied him no doubt relied upon his sup posed knowledge of the country which he claimed to have visited last year The finding of the dead bodies of the lost party now would be an indefinite task, as there Is no way to estimate how far or in what direction each travelled before the horrible death of the desert overlook them.

NO ROOM FOR DISCUSSION IN ARIZONA.

The New Mexico press has not yet been thoroughly convinced of the eX- isting fact that fully 95 per cent of the citizens of Arizona are unalterably opposed to joint statehood with New Mexico. The Albuquerque Industrial Advertiser seems to think that be- cause the people of Arizona will not stop to discuss joint statehood with the handful of people here who would be willing to accept jointure that there is some division of sentiment There is practically but one mind in Arizona on the question of joint statehood. It is so nearly unanimously opposed to it that a discussion of the question in Arizona would be ridic- ulOus Arizona has spoken it's senti- ment on this question through the channel of every representative body called together in the territory since the iniquitous measure was first pro posed. Our legislature has twice spoken by memorial; our public off cials in every county have spoken; the bar association of the territory has spoken; boards of supervisors in every county have imp,ored congress, by resolution, to save Arizona from the threatened calamity; every busi- ness organization in the territory has joined in the universal protest against joint statehood. Who mas right to deny that all these declarations from every avenue of influence in the terri tory represent the sentiment of the people of Arizona? People in Ari- zona are too busy in their professional and business association to give any time for discussion with any man who is in favor of>the destruction of Ari- zona.
