GOVERNMENT TO PAY BILLS
Fall Election Will Not Cost the
 Territory One Dollar

The statehood election this fall will be of value to the people of Arizona in that the national gov ernment will pay the expense of the election and the counties of the territory will be relieved of paying for the general election, as the two elections will be held together. one set of officials attending to all the duties of the election and the ex- pense being practically the same as at ordinary elections. The state hood bill carries with it an appro- priation of $15O,OOO for the expense of holding the election.
 In his call for the statehood cleo ton Gov. Kibbey makes it plain that it is his intention and plan to have the funds of the statehood election cover those of the general election which occurs at the same time. The portion of the call con- strued to convey that idea reads as follows:
 And the several precinct, county and Territorial officers in the Ter ritory who are charged by law with any duties relating to general cleo tions are, so far as those duties are applicable to the election hereby ordered, and not inconsistent with the said Act of Congress, likewise charged with the performance thereof in respect to this election; and in addition thereto, such other duties in respect thereto as are pre- scribed by the provisions of said l Act of Congress.
 A representative of the Gazette conferred about the matter with members of the board of supervis- ors Saturday and examined the books with view of ascertaining the cost of holding elections in this county.
 The expense of general election in Maricopa county is about $5OOO, and as this is one of the biggest counties in the territory, that sum would be reasonable average for the counties, which would make the cost of the election in the terri tory $65, ,OOO.
 If the statehood bill saves the territory the cost of it's general cleo tion this fall it will not have passed through congress without doing some good to Arizona. It is cer- tainty that it will never do the ter ritory any other good nor harm.- Phoenix Gazette.
