Tucson, Aug. There is but one
daily paper in Arizona which fayors
statehood in the present crisis. 1t
is the Tucson Star. Why are there
not more daily papers for jointure?
The answer is easy. There are more
daily papers in Arizona than the pop
ulation can support. How, then, can
they live? me corporations which
started them, or which own them
body and soul by the advance of
money to pay their weekly accruing
bills, find them useful and are will
ing TO maintain their precarious ex-
istence just SO long, and no longer,
as they shall do the will of the mas
ter. Con you expect them under
such circumstances to be independent
in thought or outspoken in the in
terests of the people? Not on your
life. What is the prosperity of Ari-
iona under statehood to them, if it
means the removal of the hand which
feeds them? Quite number of the
Arizona papers opposed to statehood
could go out of business and the peo-
pie of the territory would be none the
worse of by so small a part as a
hairs breadth. The people know thi:
and they are paying but little atten-
ton to the paid utterances of the SUBJ
sidized press. When the vote il
counted the result will show how
small is the influence the corporation
owned papers have in this territory

CUMM|NS OF. IOWA HAS THE
WINNING CARD IN HIS STATE
Temporary Chairman ToWner Says Re-
publiCdniSm Only Safeguard
Against Socialism.

Des Moines, Iowa, August 1.-The
republican state convention of Iowa
met here at -10:30 o'clock this fore
noon and was called TO order by Mr..
Spence, chairman of the state central
committee. Never before in the his
orty of the state has a republican
state convention attracted so much
general interest in the party or attract
ed such host of politicians as the
present convention. This is due to
the bitter factional fight between the
"stand-patters" and the 'progressives"
which is being waged In this state and
which will reach its elimination in
today's convention.
The convention has been called TO
nominate one candidate each for the
positions of governor, Lieutenant gov
ernor secretary of state, auditor of
state, treasurer of state, attorney gen.
eral, clerk Of the supreme court, su-
perintendent of public instruction and
reporter of the supreme court and
two candidates each for Judge of the
supreme court and railroad commits.
sioner. The principal contest is, of
course, over the nomination for gov
ernOr. There are two candidates in
the field, Governor Cummins, who rep
resents the stand-patters, and George
ID. Perkins, who mas the support of
the "Progressives." For weeks the
two factions have been carrying on an
extremely bitter campaign thrOughou.

NEW MEXICO is NO

Special to The Evening Citizen.
Nogales, ,Ariz.. Aug. This coun-
ty is blessed in having in the editor
of the Oasis one of the abk st and
most irreproachable public men in the
territory. Colonel Bird is able to hold
his own with any man in the territory
and the broadsides he has been send
ing into the hulks of the corporation
fleet has sent many of them to the
bottom of the sea, He has done q
great work IN showing that the asser-
lions of the corporation-support
papers concerning New Mexico, her
people, her wealth and her resources,
are made out of whole cloth. The
people of this county now fully under
stand that the addition of New Mex
leo to the state of Arizona will be an
immense gain in every particular. 1t
is true that many of us desire that
Arizona should be a state by herself;
but as congress has shown that such
cannot be the case because of the op-
position of the people of the whole
country east of the Missouri and the
Mississippi, the people of Arizona are
rapidly making up their minds that
joint statehood is infinitely superior
to no statehood at all. In fact, the
number is growing daily who are be-
coming convinced that joint state
hood is really better than single
statehood would be. The popular
feeling changing to joint statehood

FAKE STORY NAILED

Washington, Aug. 1.-The state de-
partment has received the following
dispatch from Ambassador Thompson
at Mexico City:
"The statement in American papers
to the effect that an uprising against
Americans is gaining ground is entire
ly unfounded. President Diaz assures
me that he is unable to find cause for
the alarming interviews and state
ments reported to have been given
out by Americans returning to the
United tSates from Mexico. The Mex
lean government, however, because of
the alarming stories put in circula-
tion, is vigilant to the last degree, and
should disturbances deYelope at any
point the offenders will be dealt with
as their cases merit"

The peasant war which recently

pected in Russia.

Our People Are Ready to Die.
No relief from their sufferings and
wrongs came from the farcical douma.
Nothing good could come from it, 1t
was the czar's excuse in time of a
dangerous extremity. He trifled with
and fooled those of his people who
were taken in with his soft words Of
promise. Never have the revolution
airy leaders believed him. Did not the
bureaucracy and aristOcracy still
exist?
The douma was powerless, though
among its members were honest men
with loyal nearts. Its legislative func-
tions were so regulated that every
proposed reform was quickly sup
pressed. The plot behind was the
czar's foolish notion that if the people
believed that the douma was failure
they would be willing to fall back tc
the Old system.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 1.-Great ex-
citement prevails here as result of
the startling news from Sveaborg,
and there is the greatest apprehen-
sion regarding the situation at Cron-
stadt, as there is little doubt that the
rising of the garrison of this Glib
raltar of the Baltic was a premature
attempt to execute widespread con-
spiracy which involved the selzing OF
the fortress of Sveaborg, Cronstadt
and Sebastopol as bases for the re-
voting of the Black sea and Baltic
fleets. The chief point now in doubt
is whether the main portion of the
Baltic fleet has joined in the rebel
lion. A telegram claiming to be from
the commander of the fortress at Sve-
aborg has been received, saying: En-
tire crews of four warships have mu-
tinted" If the Reval squadron joined
the mutineers there is little hope OF
regaining possession of Sveaborg fort

the Utah exhibit at the irrigatio con-
gress, and it is for that purpose that
he is here. Mr.. Judd is confident that
the Utah exhibit will be the best
made.
His state has spared no expense or
pains in collecting the exhibit, and
he came armed with plans and speci-
fications for special booth, but when
he saw how complete anda dequate
the arrangements were, concluded
that they were sufficient and ample,
and any outlay for that purpose was
not justified.
The fact that he was prepared to do
so, however, shows the desperate
struggle for the coveted cup that will
be made. Space for the Utah exhibit
has been allotted at the southern end
of the exposition grounds, and the
work of decoration and the installa-
tion of the exhibit will be begun to-
day. Utah expects to have one of the
largest fruit exhibits shown.
