THE GROWTH
 OF PROHIBITION.

Texas is not the only state in which the prohibition sentiment has made such rapid progress during the past few years fhat long established opin- ions against it have been so complete ly overcome that the "drys' have con quered the vets" and the saloons have been put out of business.
 The Kansas City Post, in a recent issue, gave summary of prohibition gains which is astonishing to those who have not kept a close watch on the progress of the prohibition move ment, and that paper concludes that the sale of liquor as a beverage will be thing of the past in the United States before many years have passed. Not only communities, but states, which have heretofore opposed stump tuary laws are now falling into the prohibition ranks, and it looks as if it is not improbable that the liquor business will soon be outlined through out the country
 The close observer of public affairs cannot help but notice the increasing sentiment against the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors, and the rapidly growing sentiment of pro- hibition. The governor of Georgia has affixed his official signature to the state prohibition law recently en- acted by the legislature of that state.
 In the state of Kentucky, the home Of the Bourbon, the legislature enact ed a local option law and ninety-one counties of the 119 in ths state, repre- senting 97 per cent of the territory A-11 -1.a.,-ao1at- ina -nnni1Iafinn adopted the focal option measure and abolished the saloons. While the sentimen in Georgia and Kentucky has recently crystalized into law. it is apparent to all observers that the same sentiment is rapidly spreading in every state in the union.
 Whether we like il or not, tiie is- sue has entered politics and has gained such an impetus that it may press itself upon the public mind for solution in nearly every state in the union.
 It matters not that prohibition has failed to prohibit somewhere. It mat ters not what opinion one man may entertain as to its merits or demerits, the sentiment for it is growing to enormous proportions.
 And stranger things have happened

ENGINEER SAVED PASSENGERS
es esS<<<e@~S~<%SA

The presence of mind of Engineer L. H. Morrison probably saved the lives of many passengers on Santa re WesJDOUuu ONeTIduU TTuIH E1U5 Sunday night on Supai hill hill, just just rest Of Pineyeta, Ariz., says an Albuquer> que dispatch. The engineer reversed his engine and fled down the grade backwards from runaway engine tender which had broken loose from a helper and was laundering down the hill toward No. 1.
 Engineer Morrison, hearing 1t com ing, realized that his jHly hope of say ing his train was 70 Ieat the runaway tank to the bottom of the hill. In stantly reversing his engine he made a backward race with death and aa struction. He got his train to the bot tom of the hill in safety and continued its backward flight across a short lev el span of track and up hill in the rear to get it out of harms way.
 Despite this the tender came thun- dering on in pursuit of the overland. but !n rounding a curve, when about i500 feet from the train, the former left the track and was completely wrecked. Had not this happened the overland would still have been saved, for just after passing tho curve, $. Tolbert, negro porter on the first coach, after taking his lie in his hands, had leaped from the -apidly moving train and thrown switch. and this would have been sure to ditch the tender had not the curve succeed ed in so doing. When the danger was ali past, the passengers of The over land, realizing the great peril they had been in and their narrow escape from death and injury, framed and signed a testimonial to the bravery and ples- ence of mind of the entire train crew. especially commenting Engineer Mor- rison and the porter, Tolbert. Copies of this testimonial have been sent tc General Manager Wells and General Superintendent Hubbard of the santa Eo

GOVERNOR klssEY's

FOn WI ''
 According to telegraphic adyices from the capital Governor Kibbey of Arizona is to have the same opportun- fly to plead for the admission of Ari- zona as separate state that was ac- corded Governor Curry of New Mexi- co. On October IS Governor Kibbey will leave for vicksburg. Miss. at the special request of President Roosevelt. There he will be called upon to tell the president how the people of Arizona feel regarding ad- mission to the sisterhood of states at the next session of congress. Cover nor Kibbey will go as the representa- tive of the people of Arizona. He will go as the representative of the whole people, and not of any particular po- litical party, and when he Is called upon to give expression to the senti- ment in Arizona regarding statehood, the governor will be. in honor bound to answer that at least 90 per cent of the people of Arizona are in favor of immediate admission to statehood.
 Governor Kibbey is fully prepared to make a good argument for the ad- mission of Arizona at the same time New Mexico is admitted. His last mes sage to the Secretary of the interior will afford him abundant proof that Arizona is in every way equally quail fled for admission to statehood as our sister territory. While Governor Kip bey is at Vicksburg, interceding for statehood for Arizona, it would be well for the citizens of Arizona to follow the example of the people of New Mexico and set a date for the holding of a constitutional convention.
 The people of Arizona are in earn est. The thought that New Mexico is to be admitted. and Arizona possibly excluded, has spurred them to activity which has been actusted by a feeling of injustice. viewed in the light of recent utterances by the president. Governor Kibbey has the same oppor- tunity ROW which was accorded Gov ernoT Curry. A firm stand for sin gle statehood for Arizona al the same time New Mexico is admitted, will ac- complish the same results. Governor Kibbey will not fail Arizona in grasp ing the golden opportunity which has been presented.

than that it will raise its head in all of the national political conventions during the coming year.
 We may denounce it as sumptTary legislation; we may declare that it is an infringement upon human liberty we may point to it as a great revenue producer; we may declare that it con. fiscates property and the enactment of it curtails public improvements, but the fact is patent that the wave of public sentiment for it is making no inventory of the price to be paid of it, but is becoming more powerful as the days go by.
Bisbee daily review., 1907-10-13

Governor Kibbey has been invited to conference with President Roose- welt for the purpose of talking over affairs in which the territory of Ari- zona is interested. Here is an oppor- tunity for Governor Kibbey to make sure of statehood for Arizona. If he win tell the president plainly that there can be no delegates from Ari- zona for Roosevelt or Taft or any oth- CT presidential fayorite unless Arizona is guaranteed the equal administra- ton favor with New Mexico. both ter ritories will be made states or given an enabling act before the meeting of the republican national convention next year

The postoffice department is get. ting busy this month in weighing the mails so as to furnish cata on which
 to base appropriations to pay for transporting the mails by rail. This is a more or less perfunctory proceed, ing that has to be gone through with for month out of each year. The de partment has been weighing the mails for the past six months or so for the beenfit of a special commission that is to report on the same matter to congress. and between the two mails ought to be pretty thoroughly weighed. The only remarkable feature about the present yearly weighing is that it is being done while congress is not in session and while it is harder for congressman to add a few tons of public documents each to the aggre. gate weight. This is thing that is done almost every year, and it is re- markable that the department should
 be so neglectful as to have the mail

SHANNON.

The new 1000-ton furnace at the Shannon reduction works has been in operation the past week and IS doing excellent work says the Copper Era. So far 1t has not been run up to any thing like its actual capacity. for the reason it was thought advisable to get the furnace into good working order before running t at full blast. It is now turning out about 40 tons of cop per matte daily. A representative of the Era visited the plant this week and found the furnace in perfect run ming order. Upon investigation it was learned that the new furnace has them all beaten .n Arizona for size, and for convenience of feeding and handling ore 1t Is is class by itself
 At present the company Is opeTat- ing one small furnace in addition to the large one. and as soon as some re- pair work is done on the other small one the three will be regularly opeT- ated.
 During recent delays the Shannon ore supply was allowed to accumu- late and it will require considerable steady operation to catch up. The more ore on hand the better 1t will be and the greater the output.
 In looking ever the smelter it was discovered that the matte Is run d. rectly from the furnace into the iadle and then poured into the converter. thereby doing away with the rever- beratory.
 It was rumored around the works last week that the shannon would lay off a bunch of men. but that Tumor was without foundation and must have come by wireless telegraphy. the same as many other rumoTs that have recently gained publicity in the dis trict. It is natural that new con struction should be curtailed until the unsettled condition of the copper market is oyer.
