DO IT RieaT.

DO IT RlGAT.
 The democrats and republicans of Arizona. through their territorial com mittees. will hold joint convention in Phoenix on the 27th instant. for the purpose of protesting against jointure.
 To do the fair thing the governor of Arizona should invite some of the joint statehood advocates of New Mexico to address that meeting, pre- senting the other side of the case.
 The Advertiser sympathizes with the people of Arizona in this statehood fight, but recognizes the fact that the many advantages offered by jointure are worthy of consideration. and it may be that even the anti-jointure fellows may get some valuable ideas from e discussion of the question.
 The people will desire 10 accept that which vill do them good, and the right side of this question cannot sui fer because of the discussion of both the good and bad to be expected
 The democratic poulicy is 10 give single statehood to each of the terri scrles, but the Advertiser ventures the assertion that there are more demo e-sts in New Mexico willing to ac- eept statehood with Arizona than there are voters of both parties in !arizoos. and il must be that their minds have been influenced by req sons more weighty than the political ambitions of any man or set of men.
 Governor Kibbey should invite sey- e-al New Mexico orators. on both sides if he will. and. before the united political parties of Arizona take de cided action. let the questions before the people for consideration be thor oughly discussed.
 The Advertiser is in favor Of decid-, ing this matter in the interests of the people and without undue considera- ton for the ambitions of the profes- -sional officeseekers of the two terri tories. In the humble opinion of the Advertiser the time approaches when the politicians should consult the taxpayers expected to bear the bur dens of a state government, and those failing to read rightly the signs of the times will suffer
 Anyhow, let the politicians of Ari- zona hea- both sides before taking so important and decisive step as will be involved in the action of the com bined territorial committees of the two great political parties--Advertiser
 The above from the Industrial Ad- vertiser, published at Albuquerque New Mexico. the home of the joint statehood league shows that the Ad vertiser has abundance Of confidence in the oratorical ability of the New Mexico joint statehood push, when il presumes that they might convert the people of Arizona to their way oi thinking on the question of statehood The article is also an admission tha in all Arizona no man could be founC to champion the joint statehood cause
 The article also exhibits the gooC nerve of the editor or the AdTertlsel in advising the governor of Arizona to invite the politicians of New Mex ico to come to Arizona and tell ou good people of the blessings whicl would come to them after their below ed territory should be wiped off th' map and they made the subjects O these New Mexico politicians. Th' according to the Advertiser. are abou the hardest bunch that could b' jumped dp anywhere between the Cit. of Mexieo and the city of New York
 The people of Arizona will prefe 10 do their own thinking on the state hood question without the aid of thos' who seek to fattsn at a government crib to be kept replenished by the ricl mines and the other prosperous indus tries of this territory.
