We urge every republican voter OF
Maricopa county TO give w. f. Cooper.
the republican candidate for delegate
to congress his hearty support from
now until the close of the polls. Mr.
Cooper is a man who viii reflect credit
upon the territory and who viii serve
it faithfully and profitably. His pub
lie record is not a long one, but il
is untarnished and brilliant Not a
word has ever been uttered against
any official act performed by him nor
has it ever been charged that he ever
left undone anything that ought to
have been done. If there is a man in
Pima county of absolute honesty OF
purpose with faith in his own con-
viction, it is Mr.. Cooper. His char
acter appeals to every class of voter
in the territory. He has a claim upon
those who work for his life has been
largely spent in laboring with his
hands and not with his jaws.
He has claim upon the taxpayers
of Pima county and therefore upon
the taxpayers of all counties, by his
careful and wise conduct of affairs
while he was district attorney Of that
county
He has a claim upon every citizen of
the territory who desires to see some
thing done for Arizona for he is a
tireIess doer of things. If Mr. Cooper
is made the next delegate to congress,
we will receive from congress bene-
fits which have been withheld from
Us for a score of years.

to have been especially devised for the
benefit OF the land sharks who no long
.er dare plumber the national domain
for fear of the penitentiary. The lieu
land clause of the bin which admits
them to any part of the territory not
otherwise disposed Of is the crown
ing feature of this authorization to
steal the public domain.
But however the land might be sold,
though it might be disposed OF honest

Regarding the effect of jointure.
George H. Maxwell said last spring,
while the joint statehood bill was un-
der discussion:
Arizona. more especially than New
Mexico, is on the edge and so evenly
balanced between conditions under
which the desert will sweep over and
destroy all agriculture, that for many
years to come that country viii need
the careful and constant protection of
the national government against the
greed of local land grabbers and forest
destroyers, to prevent the destruction
of the forests, the ranges and the
farms. For ten years Arizona has
been going backward. Now the nation
has reached out its hand, under the
National Irrigation Act, TO stem the
tide of destruction which was sweeping
over Arizona in the wake OF the desert.
To tear Arizona loose from national
control and subject her to the dOmina-
ton of the mixed population and cor
rupt politicians of New Mexico, is prac-
tically equivalent to sounding the
death knell of some of her most stu
pendOus possibilities of future develop
ment under a right national policy"
This bride of 10000 600 acres of land
is nothing more than an effort to cast
the two territories loose to be mangled
among the land wolves. All protection
is Withdrawn, and the disposition of
the land is left to the legislature or
the proposed new state. We have heard
of Arizona legislatures, a majority of
whose members have been purchased
at an average price equal to that of
mule. We have heard of New Mexico
legislatures purchased in a body for
less average price.
The legislature of the new state
might be no worse than any similar
body in any other state, but 10000, coo
acres is too great a responsibility for
ANY legislature of limited membership.
A syndicate with a half million dol
lars could, we believe, obtain control of
this bride which has been offered US.
II may be urged that we place a libel
Gus estimate upon the citizenship of
Arizona and New Mexico. Yet we are
mindful that there is not a western
state or middle state upon which
rests not the faint of d United States
senatorship sold to the highest bidder.
OF how little value in comparison
with this imperial domain OF 2O,OO0,OOO
acres, is a senatorial. gown?

The democrats who are telling the
voters that Probate Judge Phillips is
not making that office more remunera-
tive are making votes for him. The
office of probate judge was not pri-
marily intended TO be a source of rev
enue- 1t was designed for the proper
ner that the greatest possible part of
them would revert to the heirs. That
is the use Judge Phillips has made Of
the office. We believe that every male
heir of voting age of an estate which
has passed through court within the
last four years viii vote for Judge
Phillips. We believe every widow
would vote for him if she could.

WHO GAVE Us OUR CHOICE?

The democrats of Arizona, or some
of them, persist in thanking Delegate
Smith for giving the voters OF Arizona
the opportunity of saying whether or
not they want to be joined with New
Mexico. Mr.. Smith himself intimates
that such thanks are properly directed.
Thus is the question Of our salvation
from jointure further complicated and
thus are we thrown into greater con-
fusion as to the proper recipient of our
gratitude, for the late republican con-
vention at B:sbee endorsed the action
of President Roosevelt in according to
Arizona the tight to decide for herself
the question of joint statehood with
New Mexico"
The well known personal relations
toward each other. of Mr.. Smith and
President Roosevelt, or rather, the
want of any personal relations, pre-
cludes the suspicion that the privilege
we viii exercise on November 6 was
the result of collaboration by Mr..
Smith and the president.
We surmise that when the truth is
made known, we shall see that the
boon we enjoy was not conferred upon
US by either the president or Delegate

THE MOST DAMNABLE OF ALL.

T. y y
The Republican has alluded briefly
to the land feature of the joint state
hood bill which jointists hold forth as
a remarkable instance of national gen
crosby. They point out that no terri
tory ever before was lowered with
such a, land gift That is true, but one
territory, Nevada, was lowered
with princely gift of land
Where is it now? 1t is not for
settlers and homeseekers. Long ago
it passed through corrupt or ignorant
state legislatures and governments
into the hands of land sharks. The
state has not an acre of it left, and its
population is less than it was at the
time of its admission.
There is not a more damnable prOpo-
sition contained in the joint statehood
bill than the proposed gift of 2O,O0O,OOO
acres of the public domain to the new
state. a bride which would quickly pass
out of its possession into the hands Of
pirates who are awaiting with feverish
eagerness the result of the election
next Tuesday The bill would be infin-
iteIy less odious if it did not convey an
acre of land
It has been demonstrated that the
public domain and the distribution of
it are safer in the hands Of the -gener-
al government. Our land laws faulty
as they have been found to be from
time to time, are the best that have
ever been devised for the requirements
of the growing nation. The laws pro-
pose that the lands shall be dispensed
according to demands for them made in
good faith; that they shall be reserved
for home makers of this and other gen
erations. The greatest care has been
exercised to preserve them from land
spectators.
The passage of the reclamation act
furnished an additional reason for the
safeguarding of the public domain. On
this subject, President Roosevelt in
1903 a year before the jointure in
fanny was contemplated, said on this
subject in an address to d California
audience: Every phase of the land
policy of the United States is as it by
right ought to be, directed to the up
building of the home maker" In the
same address he said There should be
a revision of the land laws and a cul-
ling out OF such provisions as in actu-
al practice under present conditions
TEND TO MAKE POSSIBLE THE
ACQUISITION OF LARGE TRACTS
FOR SPECULATIVE PURPOSES, OR
FOR THE PURPOSE OF LEASING
TO OTHERS"
If the joint statehood law should be
come operative by the votes of the peo-
pie next Tuesday. the evil which the
president described would not only be-
come possible, but probable and even
certain. In five. years not an acre of
the 2O,0OO,OOO, unless 4 worthless acre,
would be in the possession OF the state.
Not one acre in ten would be in the
possession of the man for whom God
and our national land laws have been
saving it, the man who wants a home.
The joint statehood bill while drawn
for the decetvng of the voters. seems
