statehood with New Mexico as a just recognition of rights of citi- Zens of Arizona to local self government. Under his wise and energetic administration the laws have been vigorously and impartially administered, ineffi- ciency has been replaced by eff ciency, dishonesty in public ser wants has been detected and pun ished. His influence for good has not been confined to our own country, but has been felt and acknowledged among the nations of the earth and through his in strumentality, aided by repub- lican congress, hundreds of thousands of acres of arid land in this territory are beng re- claimed under the national recla- nation act"
 Governor Kibbey was deserv- edly complimented as follows:
 "We unreservedly and unqual- ihedly endorse the territorial ad- ministration of Governor Joseph H. Kibbey. Under bis admins tration Territorial affairs have been honestly, efficiently and economically administered. The credit of Arizona at the present time is more firmly established than ever before in the history of the territory. All it's obliga tions are promptly met and econ omy and efficiency prevail in all branches of the territorial gov ernment."

JOINT STATEHOOD CONVEN=
 TON.

In another column will te found the official call for a joint statehood convention, to be held at Phoenix on Monday, Septem- Der 17th, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for dele gate to congress. Yuma is enti- tied to six delegates, and these will be selected at mass meet ing at the court house Friday evening.
 This action is the logical result of the united and arbitrary ac- tion of the democratic and re- publican parties in convention at Bisbee in absolutely preclud- ing all statehood sentiment and shutting out the friends of the only measure which can bring any kind of statehood to Arizona within reasonable period.
 Statehood is without question the paramount issue in Arizona, and the unreasonable and unfair methods that have been used to smother the statehood sentiment has had the effect to increase the number of those who believe in President Roosevelt's sincere recommendation of the union of New Mexico and Arizona, and for good and sufficient reasons.
 Among the foremost of the men who have been mentioned as statehood candidates for del egate are Hon, c. F. Ainsworth and Judge A. c. Baker, both of Phoenix. Either would make strong candidate, and, if elected, an able representative

Bisbee, Arizona, Sept. G. The republican convention was in the hands of the anti iointure people thoroughly. E. H. flag gart of Yavapai was made tenn porary chairman, F. E. Cole of Cochise, temporary secretary, Robert E. Morrison of Yavapai, permanent chairman, c. A. Bald win of Maricopa, permanent sec recretary. In the committee on credentials there was a strenu- eus contest over the Mohave and Yuma delegations. The com mittee finally threw out the reg ular delegation from Mohave by a vote of 6 to ,. The Yuma del egation headed by Molloy was thrown out by a vote of 9 to ?, Santa Cruz and Apache alone voting to seat this delegation.
 In committee on resolutions Hubbel of Apache offered a state hood resolution, but it was turn cd down. When the committee reported the resolutions Bird of Santa Cruz endeayored to Se- cure recognition to debate and enter protest against the anti statehood resolution, but Chair man Morrison would not recog- nize him. When Cooper was nominated Bird desired to place in nomination General Sampson of Phoenix, but was choked off, and Cooper's nomination was made over their protests. Reso- lutions are very mild on taxation. They endorse Kibbey's policy, simply declare for full taxation, and say nothing about bullion tax.
