THAT JOINT CONVENTION
The Aggregation Shown Up by
 Phoenix Paper

The republican joint statehood convention composed of self ap- pointed delegates from four of the thirteen counties of Arizona is in session in Phoenix today. The En- terprise hopes that other cities and towns in Arizona will not hold this against Phoenix. The convention is here without an invitation and Phoenix couldn't help herself.
 The personnel of the convention includes disappointed office seekers, office seekers who have hopes, dis gruntled soreheads who have bolted the republican party on the issue of statehood, and a small coterie who hope by their attitude in favor of the national administration policy, to be among the select company when the promenade to the pie counter of the republican party begins. The convention in Phoenix today is an exhibition of blind partisanship regardless of the best interests of the people of Arizona, having for its purpose the deliver ance of this territory body and soul into the hands of the New Mexi- cans, at the ratio of 66 to A.
 In this co-called convention there are no elected delegates. They do not come representing the peo- pie. In no county in Arizona has a primary election been held for the election of any of these delegates. They have no credentials, but are band of political rovers, who are congregated together for the purpose of stealing Arizona $ birthright.
 The Enterprise is free to admit that every man is entitled to his own opinions on any subject, but with the list of delegates before us, it is no difficult matter to name their individual motive and the individual disappointments that has prompted this gathering today
 The people of Arizona have al ready spoken on the statehood question. On the 9th inst. there was assembled in Bisbee the rep resentatives of the people of both political parties. They had been elected to represent the wishes oi their constituents on the statehood question and we find both conven. tions declaring in identically the same language: "The people oi Arizona would rather remain a territory indefinitely than accept joint statehood with New Mexico ,
 There is no danger from the con- vention of the jointists. It is the same old crowd, actuated by the same old motives, representing theil individual opinions, no more and no less.-Phoenix Enterprise, Sep. tember IT.

Naturally. they have no very definite
taste In holidays They go where 1t
suits their purses or their wives or

they may spend all their working days
