advertise to the world that our people had lost interest and practically abandoned the fight against jointure.
 We believe MT Cooper is against joint statehood, but he would not be in a position to either attract demo cratic support in statehood fight in Washington Or to combat the will of the large majority of his own party, including the president, on the propo- sition.
 Arizona needs a man in congress who can protect us from joint state hood and common sense would say that ii will be the part of wisdom to again elect the man who fought the good fight and won the battle last winter.

TROUBLE BREWING IN A REPUBLICAN, CAMP.

Over in Maricopa county there are signs of trouble brewing in the repub. lican camp. Now, after the convention
 of the republican party has nominated
 county ticket on the banks of the rio
 Salado the Gazette still is not satis- fled. The fears that the candidates will be controlled "by certain repub-
 licans who care only for the selfish ambitions and who would ruin the
 party to obtain a small temporary ad.
 vantage for themselves" Of course this means the Murphy-yickers crowd which handed the Gazette very un- desirable package when it's editor aspired to visit Phoenix as delegate to the territorial convention But we will allow the Gazette to tell it's own troubles. The following is from the columns of that paper:
 'The republican party of Maricopa county has won many victories in the past and if square dealing and hon. esty are the watch words of the party managers there is every reason to be- lieve that majority of the republican ticket will be elected this fall The ticket nominated last week is worthy of the hearty support of the people and it will get it unless the candidates and members allow themselves to be controlled by certain republicans who care only for their selfish ambitions and who would ruin the party to ob- tain a small temporary advantage for themselves.
 'In this connection the Gazette de sires to call attention to and condemn the unheard or and unwarranted ac- tion of the members of the central committee at their last meeting in passing a resolution that the chairman and secretary to be selected on Tues. day should hold the positions only dur ing the campaign-that after the cam paign is finished, the committee should select another chairman and another secretary.
 Why, we ask, should such an un- necessary and unprecedented action be taken? Is it good politics to ask two men to devote two months of their time to the good of the party and it's candidates and in the same breath to insult them by telling them that when the work is over, they must make room for another chairman and secretary, who will have practically 10 duties to perform. Will such ac- tions instill confidence in the minds of the party workers and the people as I whole?"

A FALACIOUS ARGuM ENT.

Our esteemed contemporary. the
 Morenci Leader, seems to have lost sight of the paramount issue in this
 campaign or it would not indulge in
 the argument that Arizona needs a
 republican in congress at this partic-
 ular time. We take the following
 from an article in the Leader:
 First of all he stands for a square deal, and in this campaign, he is
 making record for clean politics. His arguments are forceful and, instead of
 spending his time tearing his opponent
 to pieces, he is using his force of char |acter and logic to convince the voters of this territory that it is to their in-
 terests to send republican delegate to congress and one who can do what he is sent there to do and accomplish some .good'
 There might be conditions which would make it better for a territory to have a member of congress in sympathy with the dominant party, but certainly no such conditions exist in Arizona today. It is well known that the dominant party now in con- gross has made joint statehood for Arizona and New Mexico one of it's policies, at least that is the acknowl- edged policy of President Roosevelt, Speaker Cannon and Senator Beyer- idge and other administration sena. tors.
 To save Arizona from seing hooked up with New Mexico by the sixtieth congress. nc matter what our opinion may be on the proposition now, we must send q man there who will be in a position to fight the republican joint statehood policy and those who up- hold it. The people of Arizona, unless we mistake their temper, cares more for their statehood rights than they do for public buildings or any other consideration congress could give us
 In the present congress Hon. Mark Smith held the solid democratic vote in both houses of congress against the joint statehood bill, until our pe5- pie were granted the privilege of say ing "yes" or mo" as to whether they would accept it or not. Would it be possible to defeat this joint statehood bill in the next congress without the ] democratic vote? Certainly not. It is known and conceded throughout 1 the country that Mark Smith led the | fight for Arizona in the great battle l against joint statehood. The metro politan press of the country recognized l and conceded that it was the strong | and popular. character of Arizona's | delegate that prevented the Roosevelt 1 administration from having it's way | with the joint statehood bill.
 For the people of Arizona to fail to | re-eiect Mark Smith now would be to i
Bisbee daily review., 1906-10-04

Governor Kibbey. Ask the democratic candidate for congress if he believes in practically exempting the great mining corporations from taxation. Mark has utterly failed to express an opinion on this all important ques- tion.-Gazette.
 The Gazette has been trying all summer to get some convention or some candidate in Arizona to endorse the taxation raid on the mining indus try by Gov Kibbey and his territorial board of equalization, but so far the Gazette has not been comforted along that line. It is true that the repub- lican territorial convention endorsed the Kibbey administration, but that convention also endorsed the Roose- welt administration and then declared that the republicans of Arizona would rather have Arizona remain a territory forever than to accept joint statehood with New Mexico.
 The Gazette now turns to Mark Smith and wants him to endorse Kib- bey. Why not get an endorsement from Cooper? He has not yet been heard from on the proposition Of the Kibbey attorney general to have all the unpatented mines of Arizona plac- ed on the assessment books of the several counties.

The best opinion now is that he will carry every county in tbe territory in the November cleo, tion The people, regardless of poll. tics, recognize that if Arizona is to be again confronted with the joint state, hood proposition in congress the only safety lies in having Mark Smith CT the line of defense.

jectured that before his death he was
endeavoring to make out his losses or
winnings at cards.
A minute examination OF the circum-
stances served only to make the case
more complex. In the first place, no
reason could be given why the young
man should have fastened the door
upon the inside. There was a possi-
bflity that the murderer had done this.

The drop was at least twenty feet,
however, and a bed of crocuses in fun
lay beneath. Neither the flow

having been disturbed, nor were there
any marks upon the narrow strip Of
grass which separated the house from
