 seated two iuIl delegations af tbc
 republican convention at Bisbee. and denied q hearing in committee and upon the floor to these they could not unseat. The President knows these facts, and he is fully justified in the assertion he has
 made to Governor kibbey that there is a danger of fraud at the polls He knows, and all fair men know, that men who will perpe- trate the gross outrage that was accomplished at Bisbee, will bear watching everywhere, and he has commanded Governor Kibbey to watch them at the polls.
 Another reason, and a good one, why the President should have been suspicious of the intentions of the anti-statehood men, was the violent expressions put forth by the anti newspapers and some of their speakers, and the we'll known  characters of those speakers. Not long ago, at pub lie meeting in Tucson, one of the speakers advised Arizonans to oppose jointure with violence, and make the streets run with blood" Who would give such advice would not hesitate to tam- per with the ballot, and President knows it.
 50 1t has been unnecessary for the statehood men to call the at- tention of the President to a pos 'ible misuse of the ballot in the un- holy attempt to defeat statehood. The opponents of the measure have given him themselves ample rea- son to be suspicious of their inten- ions.

 objects most strenuously to having
 it out-counted. That is probably
 the reason why he addressed Gov
 ernor Kibbey of Arizona and ad-
 monished that official to see to it
 that there was fair deal and an
 honest count in Arizona on the

 he has been consistently deceived
 as to the sentiment in Arizona, the
 way is being paved for a cry of Fraud" to let his false advisers down easy.-Nogales Daily Twit-
 ter.
 The advocates of jointure have never misrepresented the situation in Arizona to the President. They have informed him of the evils un- der which Arizona Is laboring, and have insisted that jointure would help remedy those evils. They hoped that there would be a con stitution framed first, upon which to go the people for their suffrages: and they assured the President that upon the issues that would be presented for adoption in con- stjtutiOnal election there would be hope for carrying the territory The opponents of statehood feared greatly the educational influence of a constitutional election, and have fought the idea of framing constitution. They dare not dis cuss issues, and they know that constitution would present issues that would have to be discussed. 1 They have made out to prevent discussion of constitution, but | the advocates If statehood have taken up the fight under the great handicap, and are making a show ing that is alarming to the copper corporate cohorts.
 As to the cry of fraud" that Is alleged to have proceed from the advocates of jointure in Arizona, there is no truth in the assertion that the advocates of statehood have conveyed to the President any intimation that there was any fraud contemplated. The Presi- dent and his advisers had to sur vey only some of the opponents of statehood to know that they would not hesitate at fraud to suppress the expression of public sentiment. The President (and anyone else, for that matter) would draw reasonable inference that men who would resort to the methods to discussion that were em- ployed at the republican territorial at Bisbee, would not hesitate to employ fraud at the polls to suppress fair expression of the public sentiment. All along the assertion of the anti statehood has been that the peo- pie of Arizona are unanimous

MINING NOTES..


A compilation made from the
official reports shows that in II
states, whose total production
amounted in 1905 to 5000, ,237
short tons, or nearly 80 per cent
os the total for the United States,
and whose coal mines gave EN-.
ployment to 1884 olt of a
total of 626, 1915 men employed
ID the coal mines of the United
United States, the total number
Of men killed was 1907, while
4 400 were injured more or less
seriously, says writer in this
months issue of Mines and
Minerals. About one half the
men killed left widows, and p.
500 children were left fatheress.
The death rate per 1000 EN-
pioYes was 3.53, while for every
175,000 tons of coal mined, one
life was sacrificed.
1t is true that in some cases
accidents are unavoidable, and
it is just as true that in many
cases the accidents could have
been prevented if proper pre-
cautions had been taken by the
operators or their agents, but 1t
is also true, unhappily, that in
the probable majority of cases
the fault lay in the carelessness
of the men Themselves or OF
The bee., 1906-12-20

the ir fellow employers. In
Pennsylvania, for instance, out
of 13 accidents in 1905 which re-
suited in the death of more than
/ person each, the reports of the
Investigations into the causes
placed the responsibility in 8
cases upon the victims or their
fellow workmen, 2 were classed
as unavoidable, and in 2 cases
the responsibility was not fixed.
One which was due to the break
ing of the hosting rope might
have been avoided had the safety
clutches been in proper order.
1t appears, however, that out of
IL avoidable accidents the re
sponsibility in 8 cases was placed,
rightly or wrongly, upon the
workmen.
That the responsibility for ac-
cidents in coal mines is placed
(ofiiciaIly at 'cast) upon the
workers rather than upon the
operators, is perhaps not without
reason. 1t is self-evidenl
proposition that owners of mines
will endeavor TO prevent acci-
dents winch in addition to the
sacrifice of lives, NAV mean the
loss of thousands of dollars IL
property.
Ii there is any place on or II
the earth where military type
of discipline should be enforced
it is in coal mines, particularly
deep and.gaseous ones, but un
fortunately the laws in this
country are lax in many par

ticulars, and attempts to dis
cipline employees for disregard of
rules established by operators
themselves for the protection of
lives and property, are apt to re-
suit in strikes, which may lay
the mine idle for weeks or
even months.
1t is rather a reflection OH our
boasted progress in civilization
that this, the greatest mining
country in the world furnishes
the worst record for the number
of accidents as compared with
the number of men employed.
