PHoENIX. ARIZONA, JUNE s, 1906.
THE OPERATION OF PUBLIC
 OPINION.

We have hitherto pointed out that the escape of Arizona from the yoke of joint statehood which a party ma jority in the senate. an apparently in vincible house organization, spurred on by the administration, designed to put on, was due to an awakened public opinion. The Sacramento Union pre- sents a similar view:
 Another striking illustration of the operation of public opinion upon the action of persons in official authority is supplied by the career Of the state hood measure. affecting directly the political reorganization of New Mex ico and Arizona. Early in congress sional session it was agreed between the president, the speaker of the house of representatives and other party leaders that the two territories should be joined in a single state organization and thus brought into the national sis terhood. It was purely a political ar engagement, devised in the presumed in- terest of the dominant party. The argument was that if admitted separ- ately it would probably give the demo- cratic party four senators, whereas under the combination plan it would yield but two. Strenuous efforts have been made to carry out this plan. but it has come to nothing. New Mexico was ony half pleased with the ar rangement, and Arizona repudiated 1t of ment. The intelligence and spirit of justice oi the country at large con- demned it first as cheap and un- worthy partisan arrangement, and sec ond, as essentially un-Amerioan in it's character.
 It was argued pointedly that no American community could with jus tice or propriety be brought into the Union under conditions adverse to It's own will; secondly, that it was morally and therefore politically wrong. It was urged with especial effectiveness that every such selfishly calculated adjust ment in the history of the country had resulted in disappointment and con- fusion, and that it had recoiled upon the party under whose authority it had been done. Texas, brought into the Union to prop the southern slavery system, was the cause of a bloody war whose effects contributed in the end to the destruction of the slave power. Nevada, brought into the Union as a measure of republican policy. came near destroying republican supremacy at the great crisis of the party's lire. Colorado, likewise brought into the Union under motives oi partisan policy, turned against those who gave it state hood, and by its electoral vote gave the administration to the rival party.
 The outcome of all these reasonings and influences is now seen in the ar engagement by which New Mexico and Arizona are to vote upon the condi- tions of their entrance into the Union. This is right from every point of view It is, too, a mark of the power of public opinion exercised in opposition to scheme of gross partisan selfishness.

SOCIALISTS IN CONTROL.
Why Two Butte Members of the Fed
 eration Were Rejected.

Denver June 7.-The action Of the convention of the Western Federation of Miners at its opening session here, whereby two members of the Butte del egation were unseated, caused a charge to be made that the socialistic tenden- cies of the federation was the real reason for the disqualification of the men referred to. Resolutions prepared by committee appointed for the pur- pose were adopted unanimously today, refuting the charge.
 The convention continued to cOnsid- CT constitutional amendments and also received the report of Mir. Murphy, the federation's general counsel. Secretary Kirwin stated that this report con tained no recommendation concerning the policy in the Mover Haywood PettibOne cases.

The Los Angeles Times, moralizing on the fall of ex-Senator Burton, asks 'Is it some moral fault in the crust of human nature that causes these sub sidences, as the geological faults in the earth's crust are responsible for seismic shake-ups? We know these disasters occur, but who can fully ex- plain the cause?" It is hard to divorce the California mind entirely from the late disturbance at San Francisco and along the coast

IT WORKS WHEN IT WORKS.

IT WORKS WHEN IT WORKS.
 The election in effect of a United States senator in Oregon worked out this time consonantly with the new law in that state which provides that the legislature shall follow the will of the people as expressed in favor of a can didate for senator. That provision could not probably be enforced against a stubborn legislature, since legislators i1 voting cannot be directed by ans law. For party reasons a legislature would certainly elect a candidate of it's own party so indicated, but in all cir cumstances a legislature could not be expected to cross the suit A legis- lator is apt to consider his duty to his constituents as his foremost business.
 We will suppose that there are in state forty constituencies. of which thirty habitually return democratic members to a legislature by small ma jorities. Ten constituencies return re- publican members by majorities aggre- gating more than the aggregate demo- cratic majorities. So. also, there is in these ten constituencies a majority big enough to make a clear majority throughout the state in favor of a re- publican candidate for United States senator. who, however, does not re- ceive a majority in any one of the thirty democratic constituencies.
 In such a case. it would hardly be conceived that the legislators from the democratic districts would fly in the

faces of their constituents The con stitutional way of electing senators can be certainly 'circumvented only in those states in which majorities make nomi- nations equivalent to elections.
