The harmony among the Repnbli.
cans OF West Virginia is intense. Not
only do they have two nominees for
governor but the other day United
states Senator Scott and State Senator
Smith engaged in a fist fight when
they met in a bank and exchanged
thirty-six blows, by actual count. And
the cause OF the fight was Smiths
statement in a speech that West vir
ginia's seats in the United States gen
ate had been sold at auction for many
years. Scott resented such publicity
OF party secrets.

SPECIAL COMMISSIONER
NOW In VENEZUELA

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 20
Dispatches from w. l. Buchanan, the
special commissioner to Venezuela,
were received at the state department
and indicate that he has taken steps
to get in direct communication with
the officials of the government with a
view to taking up the work with which
he is entrusted.
It is expected he will discuss freely
with the new government established
there, the various matters of imoprt-
ance between the two countries, and
on the character of his report the fu-
ture attitude of the state department
in dealing with Venezuela is based,
and that the United States having re-
sumed friendly relations with the
Venezuelan government, with the I'M
derstanding that she is now willing
to settle the pending questions under
discussion here that the intention in
regard TO questions at issue will form
the burden of Buchanan's conference.
In conclusion Buchanan's mission, &C
cording to the officials here, should

follows: AS paradoxical as it may
seem, it is true that very few of us
know our best known songs. This
is demonstrated whenever and wher-
ever a home loving crowd of Kentuck-

The plaintive melody of the song is

are known in many parts of the

A HOME FOR
OLD PIONEERS.

In the creation and regeneration OF
this new state manY noble lives have
been sacrificed. Thousands of un-
marked graves dot hillside and mesa
in every section Of arizona, from the
Grand Canyon to VI ere the land of
Montezuma begins; graves OF men
who died with rife in hand that Ari-
zona might become the abiding place
of civilization. To these dead heroes
in memory we weave garlands OF
Towering blooms; 70 those who came
safely through the battles of the early
days, who often stood face TO face
with the ''gates ajar." we take OF our
hat in token of respect and venera'
ton.
While love is priceless and senti'
ment is sweet, lest we forget Chose
who follow win lie too late) let us
care for the survivors of the early
struggles in Arizona.
A pioneers home. a retreat fol
those who blazed the trails Of civil.
zation and industry, who conquered
the savage Apache, a home worthy
of their sterling worth and our ap
probation should be provided during
the early days of the coming legisla
ture. This debt to the pioneer men
and women of Arizona is long over
due and should now be promptly met
1t is said that Prescott, up among
the pines, cool, safe and sane, where
the cooling bree2'ss of midsummer
carry health, vigor and happiness, is
asI.ing for the privilege of having in
I her midst these men of old and his
toric days. Let 7x honor ourselves
and posterity by providing such
home, either at Prescott or some
where else ia the territory.
One of the most touching incidents
ever Witnessed by human eyes was
when the last Arizona Legislature
passed by rising, unanimous vote, {
bill providing for the erection Of {
pioneers home ~ the territory
house and council enacted this Law
by a rising vote: standing under the
dome of the capitol building at Phoe

That this home is lot now in course
of construction is not due to the de
mands or the public good. Spleen
that marrow despoiler of many bene
fetal acts, pocket vetoed this bill o
bills. This act Of killing law which
the people wanted vas inexcusabI'
and the manner in which it was don'
is deserving of condemnation.
Another legislative will soon NEE
