Mrs. Kate Nohles, who made the

soon worked up trade that demanded

A HARD LOSER.

Our Uncle Joseph Cannon is hard loser The insinuations Of Delegate Smith which filled the speaker with forgetfulness of himself on Thursday were mild in comparison with the things which had been said about him both in congress and in the newspa- pers before the game had been played out.
 It was perhaps unnecessary for MT. Smith to further irritate the old man in the moment of his defeat, but it must not be forgotten that MT. smith and the other Arizonians had been sub tected by the speaker to great deal Of irritation. The incident was closing, and the delegate was given the first and last opportunity to say what he had to say since the passage of the bill by the house.
 Even then he was moderate. The speaker had for months been accused of unfairness and even of bribery. In fluential eastern republican papers Joined in the accusation and declared that the traditions of the house had been disgraced by the speaker in his course during the statehood legisla- ton.
 It had been shown by the Washing ton Post that the insurgents had been punished by deprivation of public buildings and other appropriations for the benefit of their constituents. It was also shown that their colleagues had been rewarded for their cringing obedience to the organization.
 As to the charge by MT. Smith. of trafficking in legislation, of improper attempts to influence senate legisla- tion. it is remembered that when the bill was returned to the house from the senate. the speaker angrily de- clared that if the house would stand firm the senate would have to yield It was later given out in the news dis patches that the speaker intended to withhold action on various senate bills until the senate should come to the houses way of thinking about joint statehood. His stubbornness, too, would have prevailed but for the firm
 
 cerned in no pending legislation more deeply than he was that justice should be done Arizona.
 As long as there was a prospect. or even a hope. of success, the speaker was unmoved by criticism. But rubbed sore by defeat. he gave way to violent anger, and then could merely deny the insinuations which he con- strued to have been made. If he had been conscious of no impropriety on his part he would probably not have observed a personal attack in the fin situation" He certainly would not have resented it, and thus have given the greatest possible publicity and per manency of effect to the observations of MT. Smith. The fact is. the speaker blundered into the statehood fight: he blundered through it, and blundered out of it.

LOCK SYSTEM OR NONE.

The attitude of the senate toward the two types of interoceanic canal is yet a subject of conjecture. It has been assumed or guessed that a ma jority favored the lock system. We suppose that this matter will be set tied next Thursday.
 The presidents threat. or the state ment Ion authority" that he would veto bill providing for sea-Ievei con- struction. is not likely. though, to in- crease the chances in the senate of the lock type. The failure in that body of much of the legislation desired by the president in the course of this session has been attributed to these "author- itative' statements regarding his course in certain contingencies.
 There is known to be a strong ele- ment in the senate in favor of the sea- level canal. It is argued against the lock system that, while it is less expen- sive and can be much more quickly constructed. it is much more subject to derangement. If not destruction, by earthquakes.
 These senators, too, are backed by the majority report of the board of en- gineers selected throughout the world with reference to their technical knowl- edge of such matters. They were op- posed by the majority of the commits
Arizona republican., 1906-06-16

sion. who were selected less with refer ence to their engineering skill than with reference to something else So, so far as technical support Is con cerned, the sea-level senators have the best of 1t.
 There is still another group of sen ators who, though they are not loudly saying so, are rather indifferent to any type of canal. They believe this coun- try could worry along a few years without an isthmian waterway. Some of these senators might be counted up- on to support any canal project which they believe the president might veto.
 The threat of a veto therefore, if of any effect at all. would weaken rather than strengthen the lock-system sup port. Those who favor the sea-level plan or those who may be hesitating would not be won over by the presi- dents assumption that his plan is so much the better one that the other is worthless.

If President Roosevelt desired to re- venge himself himself upon the packers for the activity of their friends in con- gress he could easily do so most ef- fectively by Vetoing the bill which the house seems disposed to pass. Thus the packers would be left in the air, and the destruction of their trade which they complain is going on would con- tinue until a sufficiently reassuring in- spection bill becomes a law.

MUST ALL BE AS CHRIST.
By Rev. William Phillips

Are We able to drink the cup that |
shall drink Of and to be baptized with
the baptism that l am baptized with?
Jesus lived for a purpose He lived
to give men larger and a truer con-
ceptiOn of God and of life and of hui
man destiny. But in order to do that
he had to pay a price. He had a cup
to drink of and a baptism to be bap-
tiZed with. In other words. Jesus,
in order to accomplish his task, poured
out his lifes blood in service for the
world. He gave himself up to a life of
toll for men in spite of the shame and
the agony and the disappointments
which he met.
AS Jesus lived his life of service and
self-sacrifiCe SO all Christians if they
would make this world a better place
to live in likewise must like a life of
service and self-sacrifice. They must
in a measure become Christs. The
principle of self-sacriice Is not con-
fined to one event in the history of the
world.
Whether or not we are able to meet
that claim depends upon the measure
of our love. Do you remember the
story of Ulysses? When 1t was told
Ulysses that if he would reach his
home and meet his wife and child he
must go through the dark regions of
the underworld his reply was: I'll 90
through hell if hell leads home.'
Love will dare and endure all things.
It was love that was back Of Jesus
life Of service and self-sacrifice. It
was love that sent Florence Nightin
gale from her home of refinement to
nurse the wounded soldiers of the Cri-
mean war and John Howard to work
for prison reform
