ROOSEVELT NOTES
 HISTRI0NlC AFFAIRS
A Spirited Account by a Mountain
 Dramatic Critic.

Roosevelt has at last the distinction of having one within her gates who is d master, or rather a wouldbe mas ter of frenzied finance. Not that he was successful, but he has shown those characteristics and abilities which have made some of our great fnanciers and market manipulators famous. Claudio Camiocho is the mana dealer in wood. For some months past Claudio has been in the employ of one Fesants. who holds contract to furnish the government wood here, and last week he quit his job. He came to town and as he did so, brought in about thirty cords of his former employers wood and dis
 posed of it at the power plant. He then went about settling his honest debts and wound up his affairs by going on a spree. His money became short and he conceived the idea of getting a little of that wood and sell
 il to someone. Between two days he committed the theft and sue ceeded in getting away with four cords which he readily sold at a ridiculous ly low price Some one found out that the wood was missing and after a search, Camiocho was suspected. He was brought before justice Evans and did his best to explain matters: he thought there was a mistake some wheTe-there must be, in fact. for he did not take the wood. However. in dicatiOns pointed too strongly in the other direction, and the justice could not be convinced that he was not gull ty. This hurt the honorable gentle mans feelings awfully, but the judge thought he ought to have at least 90 days to think the matter over, so he was committed to the county Jail fin Globe. Sentence was commuted, how ever, when his friends put up the thirty dollars, and Claudio was set free.
 Mrs. F. Duryee entertained at tea on last Wednesday afternoon, in honor of Miss Jessie Palmer of Michigan. who is here visiting her brothers fam fly, Dr. Palmer. Guessing games

were played during the afternoon, Miss Palmer winning first prize, and very delightful luncheon was served about five o'clock. Those present be- side the hostess were Mesdames Pal mer, Hill. Harrison, Smith and Miss Palmer.
 A wild and furious aggregation of transformers, calling themselves vau- deville artists. have for the past week been giving the people of this burg the fercest exhibition of legs and bum acting ever seen here. Financially, the affair has been a bowling success but, shades of the immortal Shakes pere, the actors are in class by them selves. Shows are few and far be- tween here, and as a result, many hard earned dollar has been pried loose by this bunch while they have so- journed among us.
 The largest and most successful dancing party ever given by the people on the hill was the farewell to Mir and Mrs. Henry Policeman given last Friday night. MT Policeman, who for some time past has been chief chem ist at the cement plant, has given up his position here to pursue work in his chosen line, copper. and he goes to Bisbee to accept a place with one of the largest copper smeIters in that camp. MT. and Mrs. Policeman have made host of friends during their long and pleasant stay here. and 1t IS with much regret that their friends see them leave They go with the best wishes of everyone following them.

Mexico end Arizona constitute country larger than half of Europe"
 If the Tribune continues its inves- tigation of Arizona's historical and logical right to have a voice as to the conditions of it's admission to state hood forty-three years after it's separ- ation from New Mexico for the reasons stated by Senator Wade it will find that the law of 1863, creating this inde- tinct provision:
 in the provisions of this act shall be construed to prohibit the Congress of the United States from dividing said territory or changing it's boundaries in such manner or at such time as it may deem proper. Provided further, That said government shall be main tained and continued until such time as the people of the territory shall. with the consent of the congress, form state government. republican in form, as prescribed by the constitution of the United States, and apply for and obtain admission into the Union as state. on an equal footing with the original states"
 Thus congress forty-three years ago not only created Arizona as a separ- ate entity but promised her statehood as a separate entity when she desired and was ready for statehood. The pending bill proposes to commit that very outrage which the Tribune says it cannot perceive. It undoes the work of nearly half a century of independ- ent existence. It violates the pledge of independent statehood implied in the language of the act creating the inde- pendent territory. It proposes to force Arizona back into an undesired union with New Mexico by referring the question of coalescing not to Arizona s voters-a combination in which Ari- zona is in a position to be outvoted iD the decision of her own destines.

MANAGER OF LlElGATl0N
 SUES FOR HIS HIRE
An Item in an Action by N. ". flag
 gard Against Meridian Canal Co.

Suit on account was begun in dis trict court yesterday by N. w. Hag- gard against the Meridian Canal com pany. The plaintiff alleges that there is due him the sum of $1,416.S7. Tn the first place he had for some time the charge of the construction of the canal in the course of which he expended of his own money $1,07O37 He paid for labor $1SO. The biggest item of the in dcbtedness was for services in the ca pacity of manager of litigation in which the company was engaged for about two years. though the company was only one of the parties in interest. For this the plaintiff believes that he ought to receive $50 a month making his pay for the whole time of the liti- gation $1,2OO. Against all these claims the defendant company has paid him only $1,213.5O.
 The litigation to which reference was made was begun in the name of MT. Haggard against one of the canal com panies cn the other side of the river and below the city. The law suit kept expanding until it got into the United States court by reason of involving the right of certain Indians to part of the water over which the suit had been begun.
 It was finally settled in a manner more or less satisfactorily to all of the parties concerned and a commissioner was appointed to have charge of the distribution of the water
 Suit was also begun by MT. Haggard yesterday against Daniel Stephens fer the collection of an account amounting to s4S9.7S due for the clearing of tract of land.

GLOBE SIGHTS.
lFrom the AtchIson GIobe.O

(FrOm the htchisOn GlObe)
 They say that a woman is whatever age she looks. Well. here is a sign she is over forty. Her hat is always on crooked.
 When women get to talking about the neighbors who borrow. more re markable and startling stories are told than upon any other occasion.
 It is every bride housekeeper's opin- ion that il takes clothes a terribly long time to get old enough to be torn up for dish rags and dust cloths.
 It sometimes happens a widow be- hayes so foolishly her actions put the halo of a martyr on her husband $ brow, which the people regret they didn't sac while he was living.
 It happens tragically often that when woman has saved up money for rainy day, her son, or some other big strong man in her family gets caught out in the wet and she has to put up every cent she has saved to ael him under cover.
 We wonder that Edward Box who is an authority on all social matters doesn't originate this sort of a motto for business offices: Don't talk to the milkman." which interpreted. would mean: Don't visit with anybody when there IS --o-k to do."

ANCIENT HISTORY
 REGARDING ARIZONA
The New York Sun Shows the Error
 at Tribune Argument.

The New York Sun thus digs up some history concerning the territory of Arizona for the edihcation of the New York Tribune and with the his tory, a pledge if not a law. which an attempt is now being made to violate:
 Our neighbor the Tribune attempts thus jauntily to dispose of the "out- rage" involved in 9 forced union be- tween Arizona and New Mexico:
 Arizona has enjoyed a territorial form of government for many years, but # is a Derversion of history to hold that on that account she is enti- tied to admission internationally into the federal circle. Congress has al- ways reserved full power to fix the boundaries of new states and never felt obliged to respect the integrity of an existing territory when framing a statehood measure. If the people of Arizona and New Mexico wish to coa- lesce and form a state they can do SO If they do not care to coaIesce they can vote to stay out of the Union. They have no historical or logical right to lay down the conditions on which they ara to he admitted Con gress can therefore commit no un- heard of outrage when it submits to the people of the two territories the same practical question which it has submitted to so many other American communities"
 Forty three years ago this month congress separated Arizona as a ter ritOry from New Mexico as terri tory. The reasons for the separation and the erection of Arizona as an in- dependent territory were set forth by Senator Ben Wade of Ohio Our neighbor will find MT. Wade's re- marks, declaring the policy of the fed eral government in this matter in the Congressional Globe for February 20, 1863. Among other things he said:
 "The territory of New Mexico, in- cluding Arizona, is an exceedingly large one, altogether too extensive for any municipal business to be transact ed in its extreme portions After the territory of Arizona was acquired 1t was for soma time attached 10 New Mexico for civil purposes, and is now a part of that territory The principal point of population in Arizona is some seven hundred miles from the seat of justice in New Mexico. The number of square miles embraced in this terri tory Of Arizona is 12O912, about five or six times as large as the state of Ohio and the portion of New Mexico from which it is divided is almost as large, for the boundary line divides the whole territory nearly in the mid de. l believe the organization of this territory will lead immensely to the increase of it's population and 10 the development of it's vast riches that are latent and undeveloped I have no doubt there is as much necessity for the organization of this territory as any one we have ever organized.
