 horns and wipe out Oklahoma state hood. This he can do by reason of the fact that the congressional enact ment provides that he shall approve the new constitution. Win he do this?
 Apropos. an Oklahoma newspaper of republican proclivities speaks or the political situation in Oklahoma as follows;
 Democrats need not begin to cry against republicans and seek to blame them in advance for the possible fail ure to secure statehood. It was through the republicans that the en- abling act was passed. and it is to the republicans the people have looked for years for relief. If the democratic delegates at Guthrie would for a mo ment lose sight of blind partisan hat red and stand by their pledges. they might make an acceptable constitu- tion and strengthen themselves for all time in Oklahoma. But sn far noth- ing has been done save to ps5dsr ao local interests and seek to build up an Indian Territory democratic machine that will control oklahoma. If the constitution is defeated it will be be- cause the con-cop has not been able to distinguish between sAtesmaneffip and political petifoggery."
 This is the cry from nearly every republican newspaper in Oklahoma. The constitutional convention is over whelmingly democratic and the re- publicans see that the democratic par ty is so strongly entrenched in the hearts of the people of Oklahoma that they are not going to get in smelling distance of the state offices. This is causing the republicans to conspire to bring about the defeat of statehood and to create such row as to in- spire the president to decline to ap- prove the constitution. This is the real situation in Oklahoma. The re- publicans of that territory are willing to destroy local self-government in or der to play a dirty little game of politics.
 Now, this may not at this moment appear of interest to Arizona, but in reality it vitally affects this territ- tory. If the people of Oklahoma win our and create democratic state. the International-Ameri predicts that another effort will be made to force through congress a bill joining Ari- zona and New Mexico. In fact, it comes from the most reliable author ity that the administration has al ready planned a bill and is quietly feeling the members of the next con gross in order to create a republican state of these two territories in order to offset the democrartic state of Ok laipma The republicans undoubted- ly played bad politics when they created Oklahoma and the only way that they can redeem themselves is by doing this great wrong to the peo- pie of Arizona
 However, no state can be created without an adoption of the constitu- ton and the vote on the merger last fall shows that by strenuous effort Arizona may be able to secure enough votes to defeat the constitution, even if it is put to vote of both terri toMes.

 of holding the world on his shoulders, is saving the republic. Furthermore, that unless he can be prevailed upon to continue in that capacity the re- public will go to smash.
 Discerning men will see, however, that the real national danger lies not in the difficulty Of filling President Roosevelt's place acceptably, but in allowing the influence of one man to grow to the point where it is neces- sary to compel" him to continue in definitely at the head of the govern ment.
 Theodore roosevelt is admired chiefly for his strenuous qualities, his pluck, and his indomitable will. But those are qualities that gave to Alexander and Napoleon the distinc, tion implied in the word great"
 To break down the precedent that has ruled from the time of Washing. ton, in regard to the tenure of the presidency, would be too hazardous to think of approvingly for a mo. ment There is no reason to believe that President Roosevelt has any thought of breaking both that prece, dent and his own word, but other and less scrupulous men might later be inclined to take advantage of the opeA flood gate.
 The United States is well provided with statesmen as able and in all re- spects a. well qualified as is Theodore Roosevelt to fill the presidential chair. Any other conclusion would be equiv. alent to admitting. as before re- marked, that the safety of the coun- try is dependent upon the will or the word of one individual.
 Theodore Roosevelt will not be 'compelled' to succeed himself as president Moreover, the republican newspapers thas are worrying about the matter may as we'll understand at once that Rooseveits successor will be democrat

THE KING, THE KING;
 LONG LIVE THE kiNGl

It seems that Governor Kibbey thinks that Arizona Is a government by message. At least, he is taking more action in trying to sway legk- lation than any governor who has been in the executive chair for ten years. Heretofore the men who wsre appointed governor of this territory understood that the legislature was the expression of the people and were exceedingly careful in placing thsm- selves in the attitude of a dictator. Not so with Governor Kibbey. He thinks that because he has been made governor from Washington that he Is the whole cheese and that the legislature ought to bow down and worship him. And the republican members, with the exception of one or two, are obeying his beck and call.
 Apropos. he is not satisfied after all with leaving the taxation matter alone, as he stated he WAS. in favor of doing in the debate with Eilinwood and Goodrich before the committees on mines and mining; but Is now cut with a special message and volumi- nous bill that amends the present rev enue laws and extends additional pow CTS eo the territorial board of equali- zation, which is the creature of his appointive power. The republicans are all pleased with this and are say ing that all good government comes from Roosevelt, anyway, and that the nearer we can get to Roosevelt the better 1t will be for Arizona
 It is really a pity that this taxation question has got into such mixture. Surely the wise and cautious mem bers of the legislature are not going to give Kibbey all this power. He ab- solutely wants to rob the people and the board of supervisors of this terri tory of the right to fix their taxable values and put into the hands of this territorial board the power to say what lands and other porperty shall be assessed at. It is the most un- American and czar-like scheme ever devised by a politician, and 1t ought to arouse the people to a realization of what extremes a territorial admin istration will go when 1t is drunk with power
 Governor Kibbey doubtless means well and is honestly. from his view point, trying to help the people, but he is laying the predicate for the ex- tinction of our rights as citizens We have not yet reached the point where we are willing to permit the teFritor- iaI board of equalization to supersede the various county boards of super visors as 3 board of equalization. The people want tax equalizers who are amenable to them and if the local of fcess do not do the right thing they can elect men who will. By vesting this power in the territorial board we give the power of assessing our taxes to the president of the United States. It is not good government nor Ameri- can liberty.

Bisbee daily review., 1907-03-09

After we have sifted the governors message through and through we find this fact always before us that the goveIpo: is insisting upon the legisla- ture placing in his hands the power of assessing mining property in Ari' zona instead of urging the legislature to fix by law some uniform basis of valuation. in order that producing mines in Arizona shall pay a just and uniform amount of taxes in all counties of the territory, according to their production.
Bisbee daily review., 1907-03-09

The people of Arizona want an equitable law for the taxation of mines; one that will make ali the big producing properties pay taxes ac- cording to the product of ore or bull lion- The people do not want a law giving more power to the board of equalization which is under the con- trol of the governor, whoever he may be.

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,

The new Board OF Trustees of the
New York Life Insurance Company,
chosen by the policyholders under the
Armstrong laws. has taken charge oil
The company's affairs and has begun
the work OF reorganization.
In choosing the principal officers CO
the company. the Board has adhered
TO the idea that n life insurance com
pany should be managed by lie In
surance men. The new president Is
Darwin p. Kingsley, a college bred
man of good New England stock, who
has been In the company's service In
variety of capacities for period OF
nearly twenty years. In the parlance
Of life insurance. he began with the
rate book" and has advanced step by
step up to his present position.
The first vice president OF the COM
many is Thomas A. Buckner. who has
served the company for more than
uuarter of century.-indeed has
never had any other business connec-
ton.
Associated with these men are
others long trained In the company's
service. each an expert In his own de-
partment of work. VIM. +. Ingersoll.
who has for many years had charge
Of the company's great business In
Europe, is one of the second vice pres
Idents. and will continue at the head
Of the company's office in Paris.
Rufus ". Weeks. who has been in
the company's service for nearly forty
years. ranks next to Mr.. Buckner as
vice president, and continuous as chief
actuary OF the company.
The pollcyholders have expressed
their belief In this company in no un-
certain terms. The upheaval in life in
surance within the last two years has
resulted in n great deal of misunder-
standing and policyholders. alarmed on
matters which were not very clear to
them. have been disposed to give up
their contracts at heavy sacrifice.
This has not been true in the New York
Life to any great extent. The com
pany had s2.000.00O.000 insurance on
Its books when the life insurance In.
Irestigation began. and while the laws
of the State of New York now do not
permit any company TO write over

onehalf the New York Life formerly
did. the company's outstanding bust.
ness still exceeds 81 900 .000.0 900.

II seems the new ways of getting

away with opportunities for the "pious
