ties have increased from nineteen to twenty-five. four of
these boasting of county seats in spots where five years
ago there was not even a cattle ranch"
So said the governor, briefly outlining a prosperity
which mas been as rapid as it is gratifying. What said
Curtis2 1t has already been quoted. He asserts in the
albuquerque letter that lit is a question whether the ter
ritory is going backward or forward. II 1t does progress
in a material sence, the movement is 50 slow that IL is
difficult to detect and much more to the same effect
So apparent is it that Mr.. Curtis and none other is the
man behind the lies.
That Curtis was ever a truthful and reliable CORE.
spondent is difficult of belief For notice what he said
in the same letter about Arizona: "A convention of dele.
gates from every county and every political party in Ari-
iona met at Phoenix and unanimously declared that they
would never consent to the joint statehood bill" Every
one knows that about half of the convention was from
Maricopa county alone: that it was in no sense a conven-
ton Of elected delegates, chosen to represent the people;
that this superabundance of Maricopa pople were ap-
pointed to represent the counties from which no one at.
tended: that the great body Of those who did attend were
either selfappointed or appointed by those who were op-
posing joint statehood; that two influential citizens Of
Apache county, who did not attend, were yet appointed
by the convention to positions of Importance in the move
ment. but they declined to accept on the ground that they
favored join statehood; that no one who favored jointure
was permitted to take part in the convention, Editor AL
len T. Bird of the Oasis being refused membership in the
convention or the privilege of speaking on the floor be-
cause he favored jotnture; that Frank NJ. Murphy said
the jointure proposition must be defeated in congress
and never allowed to come before the people of Arizona;
that three papers in the territory are ably and vigorously
favorng jointure in statehood; and that a number of
postmasters, to whom petitions against the union of the
two territories had been sent for circulation, sent them
back with the declaration that they refused to circulate
them because they favored one state composed of the two
territories. These things are of common knowledge. Yet
Curtis says, with reference to the fight against joint
statehood: There was not one dissenting voice in all
Arizona. The people have unanimously Endorsed the de-
clarations of the speakers at the convention that rather
than be admitted jointly with New Mexico, Arizona had
better remain a territory forever"
The most charitable thing that can be said of Curtis
is that he delights in wholesale assertions concerning
things about which he knows nothing. But it must be re
membered that he who asserts anything to be true which
he does not know to be true is as reprehensible, and
unreliable as he who asserts anything to be true when
he knows it to be false.

SOME STORIES WISE

The President as a Wag.
Dean Shaler, of Harvard university, remarked, in
conversation with a friend not long ago, that he had dis
covered that President Roosevelt was something of a
wag. This rather surprising remark aroused the friends
curiosity, and, after some questioning, the dean was in
duced to explain.
A few days before the election last November a
member of the cabinet met the dean in Boston, and as
they parted the secretary inquired: What shall l say to
Theodore for you?"
To this the dean, with his customary candor and Wig
or, replied: "Give him my regards and tell him I'll be
id If I'll vote for him"
He had entirely forgotten his message to the presi-
dent, until a few days after election, when he received
the following note from the White House:
