GOVERNOR kIsssY's
 STATEMENT OF FACTS.

Governor Kibbey has returned to the territory from his brief visit with President Roosevelt which occurred in Mississippi several weeks ago. The return of Governor KIbbey. and his published statement regarding the at titude of the president in regard to statehood for Arizona. comes in the nature of disappointment, for the reason that the governor is unable to shed any additional light, from an authoritative source, on the republi- can program which has been decided upon affecting the two remaining ter ritories.
 Reading between the lines the opin- ion is easily formed that there is to be no statehood for Arizona. and pos sibly not for New Mexico. at the ap- preaching session, According to the president this will probably be the result, because. forsooth, leaders" in congress are opposed to the admis- sion of additional territories to state hood at this session. It is difficult for the reader to realize cffhand that the strenuous one is willing to acqui- esce in the wishes of the leaders in congress on any question, Certain ly, such was not the modus operandi in the last session when the "big stick" and the federal patronage was worked for all they were worth in the attempt to join Arizona with New Mexico in joint statehood. Perhaps, the president is not so much inearnest for single statehood for Arizona and New Mexico as he was for joint state hood, and then, again, it is barely possible that the president will not attempt to dictate legislation with such high hand in the approaching congress with the next presidential election only a few months removed Governor Kibbey's statement at the best is not calculated to inspire much enthusiasm at this time. While tde president is for us, he is willing thai the leaders in congress should have their own way, which may be taken to mean that Arizona and New Mexico win remain territories at the ezpira lion of the sixtieth congress.

rHE rHEATRlcAL TRusT.

It is not surprising that the the atriea1 trust, headed by Klaw and Er- langer, should seek to control the principal theaters of the United States and Europe. not only as to dra- matic aud vaudeville attractions, but also as to grand opera Greed and the lust of power lead to the greatest extremes. And the accomplishment of this design is possible, even if it may seem improbable The theatrical business has been commer0aIIzed 10 such an extent already that 1t is HUt hard to conceive it's complete absorp- tion by the money changers.
 Depressing as it is 10 contemplate such a contingency, 1t is less disheart- ening than the control of the necessi- ties of life by combinations. The peo- pie must have food, clothing and shel- ter, but they may dispense with en- tertainment. Emancipation from the burdens of ordinary monopolies is a slow process, and public feeling can not express itself in direct retaliation when the cost of living is arbitrarily | advanced for the enrichment of those who have gained control of the neces- sities of life. For people must live, TO matter whether it takes all CT only a reasonable part of .-.eir income.
 But once let the theatrical business become thoroughly absorbed by a | trust, once get the people aroused as to the significance of such control and each individual can retaliate, and will retaliate if he is made of the right sort of stuff It would be regrettable if the stage should become the sole l possession cf 2 lot of greedy purvey
 ors and lose thereby all the primary essentials Of artistic development But it is a triumphant satisfaction to re member that the supporters of the l t6eater do not need to tolerate such a condition The correction would bs entirely in their hands And once lel the movement Of resistance be stirref in the large cities and towns. sccl movements gould-grog into victorious opposition. It would be better to Tel
 several seasons pass without theatri
 cal entertainment than to have ths
 stage degraded indefnitelys-Gazette

 His son, Edgar Bell, who Is a car penter in Phoenix. was summoned to his bedside and left last night for YumA
 Bell received his injuries in a some what mysterious manner. There were no eye witnesses to the accident but it is the supposition that while asleep on the water tank he rolled of and fell a distance of twelve feet to the ground. He struck on his head and shoulders and was rendered uncon- scious. He was found by the night operator at Wellton and was taken to Yuma on a passenger train that came along short time afterwards.
 He was given immediate medical attention there, but although the phy- sicians worked over him for several hours he remained unconscious and, according to Yuma people who ar rived in Phoenix this morning from that town. Bell is still unconscious and his condition is very serious.

Guard Bell was detailed to follow the Indian. He found his trail and followed him around the country for three days and finally discovered that the Indian had taken a trail to Mexico.

CHANGE OF MANAGEMENT

 With this issue the Arizona Silver Belt, daily and weekly, and the job printing department of the business, passes from the management and con troi of Jos. H. Hamill to the Silver Belt Publishing company, composed of Alfred A. Cohen, Harry c. Holds worth and H. H. HieneT, who have SC cured a long time lease on the entire plant as well as the building in which the business has been conducted for the past thirty years. The new man. agement has been associated with Mr. uanin in the cnndnct of tle busi- ness for some tome past and will un- dretake no radical changes in the poi icy Of the paper, but will t-y t0 main tain the high standard of excellence which the Silver Belt has attained under the guidance of MT. Hamill, who has succeeded in placing it in the iron rank of southwestern news papers.
 Mir. Hamill decided several months ago to retire fro mthe publishing bus mess, in which he has been actively engaged for a quarter of century, and the deal closed yesterday is the climax to negotiations which have been pending between the interested parties for a number of weeks.
 The retirement of this progressive newspaper man, who has been promi- nently identified with the upbuilding of Globe and the entire territory, and whose influence has been felt in the advancement of the press of Arizona, creates a vacancy in the local news paper world that will take more than common effort and ability to fill He sewers his connection, leaving an hon est. unimpeachable, flawless record and vita the regrets of his former as sociatesthe management of today
