REVIEW ARIZONA THURSDAY MORNING.

hood. because of their determination that there shall be as little represei.- tation fin the senate as possible from the west If that feeling could be eliminated there cannot beany doubt about the admission of New Mexico during the next session of congress"
 From this letter 1t can be seen that Delegate Andrews. instead of aiding his territory to secure statehood. crip- pied the efforts of the mn who were the real friends of New Mexico. If he had held out Loyalty for single statehood the chances are that both territories would now be states.
 The statement that Senator Teile- makes concerning the feeling in the east to limit the representation of the west in the senate Is. as he states. the greatest difficulty with which the two territories have to contend. It is contemplate to an extreme for men who are at the head of the country to endeavor 10 thus hold back a na- ton for their own political purposes; but they arc doing it and we must fight the sentiment as strongly as pos sible We have the country and, if we are to be part of the govern ment. we are entitled to the represen- tation and the influence in national affairs that will give us: but what our people mostly crave is not so much influence in the senate as the right of state antimony and local self government We want the right to elect our state officers and our judges. and to exercise the full sc~- ereign power of state and 1t is to be hoped that Senator Teiler's biii will go through. if not at this session at the next session of congress. While the bill has not yet been introduced. Senator Teller can be counteI on es friend of Arizona and will staunch- ly support our wishes: at the same time he knows the situation and can be depended upon to introduce the bin at the porper time-at the exa~s psychologtal moment.

There Geems to be only one thing sure about the future of the Baltimore manager, Hughey Jennings, the once great shortstop. That is that he will wind up somewhere in the American league next year.
 Recent reports to the effect that Jen- nings was booked to go with either De troit or Boston were branded as fakes by the Oriole manager in an interview in Newark. x. J.. recently. These re ports are not true,' said Jennings. 'but you can say that this is my last season with Baltimore and that next year I will be in the American league.

Crane. Cockrell, Bow5er. Davidson, Cullen Thomas and Gruet are heart and soul in the same cause. and not one of them has right to kick at the company he is in.-Houston Post,
 Bailey. Depew. Platt. Burton and Pierce may be a combination that suits you better-aouston Chronicle.
 The Brazos Pilot takes the forego- ing for text and says:
 A newspaper that lays any claim to responsibility, that would class Sena' tor Bailey with the men named by the Chronicle, is getting pretty close 10 the ssblatherskite" order It speaks of Senator Bailey as if he were com mon felon. as if he were a ward poli- tician and booster. It speaks of him as if his course in congress had been one of open grating and trucking to corporate interests. While the truth is Bailey has done nothing for which he should be retired. During the six years since the Waters Pierce Oil company was readmitted into Texas Senator Bailey has never once fatered in his duty to the people Every speech and every vote has been cast against inc trusts and in the interest of the masses. His bitterest enemies, ol which the Houston Chronicle Is chief cannot point to one single word ol vote where he has not been true tC the people. If his dealings witi Pierce did not influence him durinI the years that have gone, is there anl sane man who would say they woul' iufiuence him in the future? His enc mics are trying to blind the people a to the real issue They are fghtinI him on a trumped-up charge in hi prirxte fife. and not on his record a a senator. His worst enemy must ac nit that he has made a great recon as a statesman. He was the leader c tbe house. he has been the leader C the senate. His colleagues look t him to lead them and bear the brur of the fight. Where the fighting

Another effort is being made ln Globe to incorporate that city. The Silver Belt is putting forth arguments in favor of this step forward in the Mountain City which are unanswera- ble. No city which has reached the importance and size of Globe can af- ford to do without a city government- The principal opposition to the incor- poration of Globe comes from the very class which a city government would control and thereby make Globe more attractive to decent peo- pie. We note that the dive saloon keepers are among the opponents of city government; this Is not cause for surprise, but 1t is surprising that reputable business men should be found allied with this class in trying to prevent. the Incorporation of the city. We would advise the people of Globe to get busy with the legislature which will convene at Phoenix this month and help along the auu-gam- bling bill; if there were not so many gamblers in Globe there would not be so much opposition to a city govern ment

Down in the coast country of Texas
it was the settled opinion for many
years that hogs could not be success
fully or profitably raised, and if one
did succeed in raising hogs, that the
meat could not be cured there. That
the idea was an absurd one was con-
stantly being demonstrated over and
over by hard-headed old fellows who
had to be shown" and who year after
year did raise hogs and save their
own bacon and hams. Finally the
people are beginning to come into
their own. Nowhere else in this cOun-
try can one raise hogs so easily nor
so cheaply. Food of the sort to make
the finest meat on earth is indigenous
to the South coast soils, and the win.
tiers being practically nothing the
cost of taking care Of them is simply
that of having room for them to run
and seeing that they have access to
plenty of water. What is true of the
hog question is true of hundreds of
crops that cant be raised" in certain
localities. While it is true that every
thing can not be raised everywhere,
the fact is that the number Of things
that can be practically raised almost
anywhere is almost unlimited. 1t Of
ten happens that some acclimatization
must be done, and varieties suited to
the soils and climate must be sought
but this the work that the diversifi-
cationist is now doing. Herein is the
greatest work of the Union Let us

lions of Judge Storey, Texas railway
commissioner, who, to protect the in
terests" in their investment in COM
presses (as he admits) has held that
the greater density of round bales
does not entitle them to any lower
rate than cotton in square bales, the
Co-Operator gives utterance to a
mighty truth in the following: The
commissioner ought to know that SUI
preme courts and all other courts;
that railroad commissioners and all
other officials, are the creatures, the
servants, of the people, and that the
