This is a momentous and era making convention. This is a conven- tion that stands for Arizona. for the people of Arizona, and when the mem bers of this convention return to their homes and go back to their wives and daughters and sweethearts, they will be received with open arms. and their families will say, Good and faithful servants, thou hast done weIf'
 "Our children have been born here; my children have been born here in Arizona, and when we talk of Arizona we talk of the Arizona that took its place as one of the political subdivi- sions of the United States in the sos; that is the Arizona that the republicans of the territory stand for. We have no quarrel with New Mexico. New Mex ico is for the New Mexicans. New Mexico is entitled to statehood. and she has been for years. And Arizona within her present borders, by reason of the intelligence of her people, by reason of her magnificent resources, and by reason of being possessed of a magnificent credit, which has long been recognized in the markets of the world is also entitled to statehood.

 As the chairman of this convention. where we have had such a. pleasant time and have gone along so smoothly and so nicely I do not think that 1t is my duty to take up your time. which at this time we need here in behalf of the republican party.

INJURED CRUISER BOSTON.
Not So Badly Damaged as Feared at
 First.

BeIlingham, Wash. Sept. 6.-The rent in the hull of the cruiser Boston has been patched so that it is nSt now necessary to operate the pumps. The forward seam was in d small place, caused by striking Peapod rock. The main rent, further back, was caused by striking another rock, against which it swung while fastened on the rock. It twill be as good as ever in few days. and it will require only about $500 to repair the starboard rent.

With words of praise he referred to the man he was about to nominate, and promised for him that should he be the choice of the convention the largest majority Pima county had ever given a republican nominee for congress.

Overlook. for Cochise, and Cleveland. for Graham. all second ed the nomination, which was declared to the be the unanimous voice of the convention upon a motion by Roy s. Goodrich. MT. Cooper was escorted to the platform and in very brief speech told in most feeling manner of his appreciation of the honor accorded him. His speech. though short made a splendid impression on the convention, and his statement of prospective suc- cess seemed to instill a like feeling in the minds of those who heard him.
 The business of the convention then resolved itself down to the small de- tails and necessary routine to legally complete the convention. The flag was again adopted as the vignette of the party, and the chairman and secretary were directed to make the necessary returns to the territorial secretary The naming of the territorial central committee was next taken up and five delegates were allotted to each county For the naming of the Maricopa com- mitteemen, the chairman.

 "-Gentlemen: We, your committee on platform and resolutions. respectfully submit the following report. We rec ommend that the following platform be adopted as the platform of this conven- ton:
 "We, the republicans of Arizona. in convention assembled. do hereby re- affirm our allegiance to the principles of the republican party. We heartily endorse the administration of Presi- dent Roosevelt and his action in ac- cording to Arizona the right to decide for herself the question of joint state hood with New Mexico. as a just rec ognitiOn of the rights of the citizens of Arizona to local self government. Un- der his wise and energetic administTa- tion the laws have been vigorously and i,,, faIl ;eko Sofa has been replaced by efficiency. dishon- esty in public servants has been de- tected and punished. His influence for good has not been confined to our own country, but has been felt and acknOwl- edged among the nations of the earth and through his instrumentality, aided by q republican congress, hundreds oi thousands of acres of arid land in this territory are being reclaimed under the national reclamation act.
 we unreservedly and unqualifiedly endorse the territorial administration of Governor Joseph H. Kibbey. Under his administration. territorial affairs have been honestly. efficiently and eco- nomically administered. The credit oi Arizona at the present time is more firmly established than ever before ir the history of the ter-itory. All it's ob. /, legations are promptly met. and econ. omy and efficiency prevail in al branches of the territorial government
 "We are unalterably opposed to join l statehood between Arizona and New 1 Mexico. and would prefer to remain ; i territory forever than to accept state hood under such conditions. We favor the just and equable tax ation of all property within the terri 1 tory.
 And we further recommend that tn i following resolution be adopted: Re ! solved, that all resolutions. before thei presentation to this convention, shal be put in writing and referred to tn committee on platform and resolutions without being read and without de bate.

KILLS CATARRHAL GERMS.
Hyomei's Healing Air Reaches Every
 Part of Nose, Throat and Lungs.

Part of Nose, Throat and Lungs.
 Hyomei is the only scientific and thorough way to cure catarrh. Stom- ach dosing does not reach the ca tarrhal germs in the air passages and cannot possibly drive them from the system. By breathing air medicated with HyOmei the germs in the nose, throat and lungs are Killed and all traces of catarrhal poison are effec- tually driven out
 Some people may think that Fly Omei is simply for catarrh of the head and throat. but it Is equally effective in catarrh of the stomach. liver or kidneys. The catarrhal germs are in the mucuous membrane and Hyomei not only kills the germs in the air passages but enters the blood with the oxygen, thus killing the germs In the blood and freeing the whole sys- tenn from catarrh.
 Hyomei is sold by the Larson Drug company under an absolute guarantee to refund the money unless it cures tra bottles, soc.
 A guarantee like this is stronger proof of merit than any claim that can be made in an advertisement. The Larson Drug company would not give their personal guarantee in this man. ner unless they had perfect confi- dence in the value of Hyomei.

DEMANDS OF INSURGENTS Terms on Which They Would
 Lay Down Arms Fighting Practically Sus- pended but Progress To- ward Peace is Slow.

Havana. Sept. 6.-While the peace projects have caused a general suspen- sion of revolutionary operations, no appreciable progress toward anything like a satisfactory end has been made The liberal leaders insist that it is un- just to regard them as insurgents, and assert that they are merely assisting peace arrangements. But they declare that not only must the terms be better than heretofore talked of, but that there must be some guaranty that they will be lived up to. General Menocal was busy throughout the day holding con-
 ferences; tonight he has no reason to
 be disappointed with the progress of negotiations, and said that the semi official suspension of hOstilities. which
 was begun today in Santa Clara and Savannah provinces, would be extend ed. giving the veterans a chance to push negotiations for peace.
 The demands that come from the in surgents include the restoration of de- serters from the rural guards to their former positions. the reinstatement of i liberals who last year were deposed from municipal offices, the retention of
 arms by the insurgents and other equally radical propositions. The lib erals have not relinquished the hope
 that they may be able to force the res | ignations of President Palma and Oth-
 CT high government officials. The sue cession of Vice-President Mendez Ca pote to the presidency is discussed. The liberals sem to think they could reach
 an understanding with him. There is
 nothing to indicate that MendeZ Ca
 pote is agreeable to this project.
 | Many business men of Havana ridi- ] cule what they call "a patched up
 peace" which they allege can be only l temporary. Some go so far as to as-
 sert that the country never can be gov erned rightly or investments be abso- lutely safeguarded unless the United States intervenes. This is frankly stated in some cases.
