PROGRESS AND PROSPERITY
 IN ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO.

There has been greater improvement in the newspaper press of New Mexico and Arizona during the past r. months than during the preceding five years. There IS hardly paper that has not enlarged it's size, secured better news reports, and improved i's 'ypograph' icgl appearance. It is good evidence of progress in the territories
 Industry in all lines is active. Rail. roads are being extended. irrigation works nrc being built. new buildings are going up everywhere. progressive people are coming in. capital is getting over its iimidity, and ihc spirit of co- operation is getting control. The ter ri'orics are settling down to Il busi- ncsslikc existence. and they have passed tho frontier stage. The "com. muuity sentiment is aroused, and there is nothing but prosperity and con. tcn,mept ahcad.-El Paso Herald.

FIGHT TO A FINISH.

The governor election proclamntio ion but brings to mind more forcibly the approaching fight on joint statehood, in preparing for the struggle we cannot begin too soon nor work too strenuous. w to defeat our opponents.
 \ soldier before entering n battle. is prone to feel somewhat nervous. by reason of the responsibility vested in him. He feels that tk~ outcome of the immediate battle is dependent on his individual efforts. unless he should permit n retrospective thought of his insignihcance. as bearing on inc sue cess of an entire army, to demoralize his courage. and thereby undermine his determination to do. Through it all he looks instinctively to his lead. CTS for inspiration and courage, and finding it. forg"ts fatigue. rebufrs. wounds. in fact everything hut the end in view, and when at Inst good for. tnn" smiles on his side, how small and insignificant do the previously consid. cred insurmountable obstacles appear to be.
 so h is with in our fight for free. dom, it depends on/each individual in this territory to defeat jointurc. Our leaders have already inspired us by winning fight which has been long nnd bitter. and now let us get into line. and show the world m unbrok. en front. We have everything to lose 'n this union, and little to gain, so let us he firm; let as realize that on each and every one of us rests the burden of victory, and each and every one of us must pile into the polls on the eth of November. and drive n mail fin the coffin of joint statehood. then elinch 1t on the other side. - Morcnci Leader.

of statehood as the other, hut i, is n question of present policy. Arizona would rather wait, trusting to time to bring full separate statehood New Mexico would like separate statehood, df course. bu, she has become ronvinc- cd thni this is the last proposal she will get for decades. snd she would rather have joint statehood now than none at all Arizona k booking to the future, and New Mexico to the present.
 It is interesting to read the various expressions, collected a, random from ihr columns of the various papers. No effort has been made to .oIlsts RN inc various arguments on either side. bu, merely to give the public an idea of the newspaper dcbat" that is going on. It is a nomontous issue. and we must not forget that i, is T national issue. of tremendous importance for all time in national affairs.
 " N 'o 'Hf ht'ibHti iUt'I'N " HtN' more representation from inc west. 1t would benefit the whole nation to hnve four senators instead of two from these territories. and two con. grcssmcn instead of one. The western men in the house and senate have been influential in much of inc bcnc6cent Legislation of the last 20 or 70 years. and i, is safe to say that if statehood had been denied to the other western territories the development of the country would have been very greatly retarded. The western men in con. gress arc pioneers of western develop. men'. just as truly ns were inc men of the trail and the old grim frontier. The east needs io be educated ont of its narrow views. and it takes western men to do it. men from the mountain and plain, and the wide horizon of boundIess possibilities.
 The whole country is interested in the statehood fight. and Arizona will bc watched with intense interest. to sec if she stands firm.

DOESN'T WANT JOINT STATE.
 HOOD.
(from Clifton. Ari,.. Iiernid.)

(from Clifton. Ari1., Iiernld.)
 Capt. Jack Crawford. the "poet scout" whose home is at San Marcial. x. M.. was interviewed one day last week at Williams, while hc was en route to Long Beach. Cal. on the subject of joint statehood. Capt. Crawford said that jointurc would be defeated in New Mexico. IIc believed he knew the sentiment of the people among whom he had spent his life better than the territorial politicians did. He had mingled with them much since the agi. tation of the joint Statehood question. and be felt absolutely sure of the de. feat of joint statehood.
 Captain Crawford said that after q brief stay in California. he would rc. turn to New Mexico and take tho stump against jointure at the request of an organization which has been formed for the defeat of it.

MARK SMITH.

The Democracy of Arizona seems to be unanimously for Mark Smith for the renomination for delegate, and som. of the leaders of Democracy of th" territory have rather vaguely b,nted tha, owing to his great work in Washington against statehood. the present delegate should also receive the support of the Republicans. who are against jointure. Rather foolish. to say the least. says the Bisbce Miner.
 Tn. Miner does not believe that Mir. Smith has done more than any loyal Arizonan would have done in the same position. If it is considered traitorous on the part of an Arizon. sn to support the joint statehood move. ment. surely man should not he lauded to the skies for doing his mani. fest duty, and remaining loyal. smith has never done anything worth ex. tended mention for Arizona, the fact of his being with the minority in con grcsS having prevented him from do. ing anything really substantial for the territory. As a matter of fact. i, will be conceded by even his friends that the Arizonans who visited Wash ington and appeared before the com. mittee on territories of the housc did as much if moi more good than smith. prior to the passage of th. statehood bill.
 The man who can get his name in the Congressional Record the greatest number of times is not necessarily \ man of great influence in congress.
 Talk is all right when |, is backed up by power. hut Smith lacks the lai. ter. In addition to being n voteless re. Prcsentntivc of the people of Arizona. his side is so far in the minority poll. tically that he was and Is powerless to do thing.
 Smith ana statehood" will never be anything more than an empty DO. liiical battle cry. Arizona wants singl. statehood. and neither Smith nor any other Democrat can secure it for Arizona. The Democratic voters of the territory must be blind that they cannot see it. Loyal citizens of Ari. zona, Republicans and Democrats alike. should support n candidate for delegate who can and who will do something for Arizona. Snch "a dele. gate can he found only in the ranks of 'h" Republican party. We'll in. formed Democrats realize this more than ever ut the present time. Party lines are to be obliterated in the com. ing el"rtion SO far as statehood is con. rcrnrd, and for the same reason they should he eliminated when it comes 'o sending man to congress who can do something other than talk.

AIR SPACE FOR WALTERS.

We hasten to advise our readers con. corning the latest dictum of the In ited Professional Masters of Dancing m America. promulgated recently in New York Th.r" riust bc no m"rc close hauling in the dreamy wait. Arm 's length for partners. if yon please. is the edict. Hear Professor Master Meyer fors, m this important, topic "The waltz ought to be our very best dance. as it is certainly the most popu. lar. But k it the best dance' defy anyone to SAY so today. See how the young men and young women hug each other in the waltz. That is all wroug. Suppose the music should sud denly stop. would we permit such hug gingsl ! should say not"

NO THIRTY CENT BRIBEs.


 The santa Fe Eagle has been doing little figuring on that $5.OOO. 900 thnt Will he given as an induccment to inc seIf'rcspecting citizens of New Mexico and Arizona to vote foy conploner. hood. That paper figures that by th" time the machinery of the new state could bc pnt in operation its population would be something near 'oo,ooO. This munifcencc then would amount to about &i0 per capita. As only the interest could be used. and as deposits are drawing not more than per cent annually, the whole thing slffs down io thirty. cents to ench per. son. The Eagle very pertinently re. marks that "no 3O cent bribes will % m this territory this year." It cer. s"'nly looks as if there ought not to be found a eorporal's guard in New Mexico who would be willing to sur. render naWe and tradition and the right to representation in the United states senate for this paltry pit. thnce, for other valid reasons there "re none. except selfish ones.

THE REVIEWER.

Observation is m art, q lost one some times; to appreciate this one should read "The Making of, n Great Mine, !" by Sharlot NJ. Hall in the July mum. her of Out West.
 In the presentation of this difficult subject, Miss Hall certainly proves her. self an adept in careful observation, no. thing escaping her attention either in point of detail or romance.
 The descriptive work is remarkably clear. and throughout the prosaic part of the subject seeps a tiny rivulet of romance as sparkling as the little thread of copper colorc water that brought at. tention to the wonderful mineral wealth hidden amid the ragged dykes of country rock" the abiding place of the Tontos during their period of bns. ket weaving. thirty years aga.
 From the drilling and blasting out of the dull, eopper.hued orc to the '"P"'" VI t"e 'Tuic ouTH Ot pure copper. every part of fhe process Is in. terestingly set forth, and holds the closest attention of the reader by the exceeding beauty of its telling.
 A Chih of sacrtncs.
 In sharpest contrast to the foregoing is the. recent article by Miss Hall appearing iu the Ladies' Home Journal, "A Child of sacriAce," a tender pathetic little story of the struggle by a young couple to preserve the lie, of their tiny babe. The reader Is made to feel the very sting of the heat and dust of that soul'racking ride in the clumsy wagon, and surely nothing could be more sym. pathetically or artistically drawn than the closing picture where the little soul goes out from the .frail body to meat the welcome of the waving pines, amid the dumb agony sud grief of the par. ents in their last futile effort to mount the almost impossible grade of the mountain side.
