THE STATEHOOD COMPROMISE

The compromise on the Statehood bill
does not prevent that measure bains
bitterly assailed by the people OF Ari-
2ona The Delegate from that Terri
tory gave notice TO the House that the
provisions Of the conference report are
no moro likely 10 be accepted by the
people OF Arizona than was the bill In
its original form
The truth is that the people Of Ari-
zona are entirely contemptuous Of any
idea of union with New Mexico in Joint
Statehood. Their interests, ideas, SEN
timents, mode Of thought. and aspira-
tons are altogether different from the
sentiments OF the majority OF the peo-
pie Of New Mexico. The people Of Ari-
Zona are aware that in the proposed
union with New Mexico they would be
outVoted their interests subordnated
and the development of Arizona re-
tarded, or perhaps stopped altogether

ing a life of its own is naturally aversc
TO being merged in the life of a larger
community with which it has no par
ticular affiliation, and with which. in
some points. 1t Is in complete monaco
cord
At the same time. the compromise bill
affords the people OF Arizona means
of escape from the thralldom which
they are prone to see In joint State
mood Delegate Smith gave notice that
he Of
cally unanimous against being joined
with New Mexico in a single State; and
IL Arizona does vote against this joinder

original provision of the Statehood bill
provided; for that bill, as first drawn
and strenuously urged, absolutely COM
PEELED joint Statehood whether the peo-
pie of the different Territories wanted
it or not. Now, Arizona can refuse the
joinder if she chooses.
At the same time, there is an clement
of danger to Arizona In this which per
haps the people there have not sudi-
clently taken into account. The Nor
mon vote is very strong in Arizona; X
is usually a solid vote, and it can be
swung for Statehood il the church

thrown for joint Statehood would he a
dangerous element on that side of the
case. The people there Will have to look

how that vote Is to be cast, they are
liable to have a bitter disappointment

VACATION DAYS.

A year or so ago Russell Sage brought
the Indignation OF the workers of the
country down upon himself by his de-
nunciation of vacations, He said the
vacation habit was a useless and cost
ly one, for which neither the employee
taking nor the employer giving it de-
rived any advantage or benefit what
ever.
OF course, those addicted to the vaca-
ton habit were furious at this outbreak
Of the penurious old money -grubber.
At the same time, Russell Sage has
lived a great many years; has Seen a
great many things, and has made d
close study of men, both In their Capa-
city as employers and as employed. /.
and surely one who has ever paid much
attention to the vacation business
would have some doubt whether or not
Mr.. Sage hasn't made out pretty good
case.
The worker who takes the vacation
leaves usually, If he is merely taking a
vacation for a vacation and not be-
CdSe Ol lll-lledilIi, as al etiCl t' NapdplS,
vigorous person, He returns used up.
q nuisance TO himself and to everybody
for almost the same length of time
that the vacation lasted. The one re-
turning from a vacation returns done
up" not infrequently on crutches. and
always inactive. lethargic. slow to get
into the work collar again.
The vacation habit is usually a mere
fad and is often pernicious. 1t is GER
tain to be continued, however, and per-
haps extended because OF the errone-
Gus notion so many have that they need
a rest, and because OF the clamor which
always exists to a certain extent and
becomes furious from time to time. that
Americans should mix more play with
their work. And so Russell Sage goes
discredited. no matter how sound his
views may be, and the vacation habit
prevails. no matter how unsound may
be the idea at the bottom OF It Naca-
ton days are on. and we shall all eX-
pect TO see bright, happy people skir
away TO recuperate, and come back In
the very reverse condition, to that in
which they departed. But a good de-
parture to them, in spite of all. May
they have a good time and recover
from it as early as possible after they
return.

such failure on the part Of the shell man at a

Pop" as his messmates call him, is one OF
the shell men aboard the Missouri who got into

the ton lifted was not in a solid bulk for the
eral tons lifted almost daily by the Missouri's
men were each cut up into twenty parts and
were in the shape of 1O0-pound prOjectiles.
These had to be lifted from the floor and placed
in the breech of a 6-inch rifle. There are

Possibly there are those who imagine that
stufing 100 pound shells into the breech of

20 in half minute, is easy work. Such
persons may convince themselves by lifting
100 pound bag OF meal from the floor to a table
and back to the floor again a few times.
