The sentiment for temperance leg
islation against the Saloon, is over
whelming in this county. If the tenn
perance people do not nominate and
elect the next representatives to the
legislature, 1t is nobody's fault but
their own. If they take no interest
in the selection of delegates to the
convention, the whiskey men, in some
sort of disguise or other, will pack
the convention with delegates of their
own. And why shouldn't they? Who
can blame them. 1t is the duty, the
christian duty, the good citizenship
duty, of every man. preacher and lay
man. to give his time and talent and
vote to temperance delegates to the
legislative nominating convention;
and the man who neglects this duty
neglects one of the highest duties Of
life.

of course we want level headed men
to represent us in the Legislature;
and men free from the entangling al
Iiances with corporate interests. OF
course we do not want zone idea"
men. Who said we did. But the
paramount question in this campaign
win be the Temperance question, and
it will be just as easy. If not a trifie
easier, to find level headed men, free
from all entangling alliances, wearing
no mans collar, among the Temper
ance Democrats as among the Wits
key Democrats. No use lodging or
squirming or getting mad or excited
about 1t. Just as well meet the issue
face to face, fair and square, with
good nature and in good temper. No
use of any abuse or villifcation or
elimination. No use of anybody get
ting mad at anybody. Nobody is
afraid of anybody, and abuse is not
argument. and campaign lies more Of
ten than otherwise are boomerangues.
No faction has made the issue. The
Herald has not made the issue. 1t has
been upon the hearts of the people all
these years. until at last it has come
to the top and it will not down. 1t is
the great question of Temperance VS..
1t is the Home VS..
The Saloon. 1t is Saloon or No Sa-
loon in Maury County. The Dis
pensary question has been fought and
lost. The High License question is
not up The Restricted Territory
question is for the larger cities, not
FOR Columbia. " is no question Of
men; this man or that man. 1t is
not any personal fight against the
liquor dealers. 1t Is clean cut ques-
ion of Saloon or No Saloon in Maury
county. Choose We this day whom We
will serve, the Home or the Saloon.

1t is amusing the number of sug-
gestions anent the saloon question.
One man fayors high license; another
one favors restricted territory; an
ether one shorter hours; another one
severer laws; etc, etc. Why nibble
at the thing? Why not cut the ac-
cursed traffic out. Every suggestion
made. admits the necessity of dealing
with the Saloon somehow as an evil.
Why perpetuate an evil Influence in
the community? Why license it? If
it is bad thing why not abolish it?

THE PART OF WISDOM

As finally framed the statehood bill gives to the people of Arizona the power to veto, if they So elect, the only way in which the people of the United States will ever grant statehood to the territories of Arl- zona and New Mexico. There is the proposition, although in a nut shell, placed fairly and squarely in cold type.
 Will they do it?
 To reply in the affirmative would be making an assertion that is not at this writing in consonance with probability.
 To answer negatively would be conceding more than this writer is disposed to do; for there are many days intervening between this and the sixth day of November, days
 
 in which the people of Arizona can, and will probably, give to the subject much careful and earnest consideration, weighing the pros and cons of the proposition; and there will be chance for the
  changing of many minds, which change will doubtless occur; but whether the changes will suffice to affect the result TIE OASIS will not venture to predict. It does not hesitate 10 affirm, however, that iii the belief of this newspaper 1t is duty the people of Arizona owe themselves, and owe to posterity, to accept the privilege of statehood as granted them now hy Congress. and reunite with New Mexico, (of which territory Arizona was once portion) to constitute the great state of Arizona.
 During d quarter of century the people of Arizona have impor- tuned Congress to grant them "the inestimabIe boon of statehood " fThat is the way it was always phrased) During more than bali a century the people of New Mex leo have been presenting the same importantly in the halls of Con- gress. There has been sentiment always in the eastern states against granting the demands or impor- tunities of the two territories. That sentiment has been growing stronger with each successive effort, Repeatedly have delegations to national conventions from the two territories succeeded in securing incorporation in national plat forms of resolutions pledging ad-

 -and it might as well be at this time-Arizona and New Mexico will accept jointure, because they can never attain statehood upon any other terms.
 The people of Arizona should not be beguiled by the siren song of democracy that William J. Bryan will be president and that under his administration Arizona will be admitted alone. The indi- cations are that perhaps Mir. Bryan will be the democratic nominee for the presidency. But they haven't elected him yet. Even should he be elected in 1908, and the House bc carried also by the democracy, there will still be the Senate, republican by good work ing majority. And Il bill for ad- mission of Arizona and New Mex ico as separate states will never 20 to a democratic president for ap- proval. whether his name be Bryan or O'Brien (Moore).
 Now to this feature of the case THE OASIS will confine it's utter ance this week. There is neither time nor space to spare, to touch upon other and ,-ery important reasons why the proposition of jointure should be accepted by the people of Arizona. Between now and November 6th there will be ample time to present and discass all of them But this reason pre- sented right now, as made mani fest by the President and the Speaker q the House, ought to be sufficient Nor all thinking men who have at heart the real welfare of Arszona, viz That it is the last and only chance that the territory will have for statehood in . genera tion.

adm nn lltf i HHr fW.ut where it has Hamsils a#ef1ed that the Republican party hss violated its platform pledge. ln refusing admission to Arizona
 The language of tbe resolutions cited is
 We favor early admission to statehood of the territories of Ari. zoua and New Mexico, bearing in mind tue rights and interests of the people of those territories and of the United States" l"
 The people of the great eastern states with millions of population construe that resolution or declar- ation in it's entirety They hold that 1t would be against their own rights and interests to grant state- hood to these two territories, with two votes each in the United States senate, to offset in that body their own votes. That is the proposition the people of the two territories have had to face. Speaker Cannon 
 is not alone in his position. He is backed by millions of voters who protest against the injustice that admission of two states here would be to them. That is why the al- legged pledges of statehood for these two territories in national Republican platforms have been ignored. The difficulty has been that those politicians who went to such conventions from the two territories have never dealt frankly with their constituents, but have returned with the false and untrue allegation that they had secured pledges.
 Finally, having tired of making double barreled pledges, the Re- publican party came out into the open. and in 8 caucus of the Re publican members of the house, by framing the Hamilton bill, an- nounced the best terms admissible for admission Of the two territories, bearing in mind the rights and of the people of the two territories, and of the United States That bsa5 is their ulti- matum. Even preparation was made to formulate a declaration of jointure in the last national platform One was in cluded in the draft of the platform presented to the committee on Of that body; and 1t was only upon the most urgent and strenuous insistence of the Arizona member upon that com mitiee that it was stricken from from that document. 4 more mis- taken course was never under taken. It enabled such men as Governor Brodie to continue to insist that the party policy was not for jointure. Had the declara- tion gone into the platform 1t would have enabled republicans in Arizona to have known two years
