Injunction to Suppress Self Appointed Guardian of PennsylVania Arizona Property.

Court Commissioner Johnstone yes terday issued a temporary injunction in the case of the Pennsylvania -Ari- zona Copper company against Richard Johnson, who is in possession of the property of the company in the Red Pi- cachO district and refuses to admit agents of the company to the grounds. The president and treasurer of the company is Dr. Win Wylie. J. Harry Bennett was the manager. The appli- cation for the writ states that Bennett left last February to be gone sixty days It was arranged that he should send the president of the company daily reports of his whereabouts and his doings. He was hardly heard of after that and for the last sixty days no word of any character has been re- ceived from him.
 There was a published report not long ago that he had committed sui eide and inquiry being made of his wife who is residing in the city brought out that she knew nothing of his The applicant believes that he has committed suicide but states that if he is still alive it is evil

The business of the expert was to report upon the condition of the property and the machinery of which the members of the company have not been in formed since the departure of Bennett.
 On his arrival at the camp he found it in the possession of Johnson who refused to admit him and gave it out that he would persist at his own peril ir entering upon the property.
 It is stated that there is machinery of variOus kinds there of the value of not less than $25OO. The company is anxious to ascertain in what kind of shape it is and to take measures for the preservation of it. The hearing on the injunction, which went into force yesterday will take place after the re- turn of Judge Kent.

STATEHOOD BEFORE POLITICS.

STATEHOOD BEFORE POLITICS.
 The real support of the campaign of Hon. Marcus A. Smith is dis closed with unexpected frankness by the Saturday Review. of whose par tisan democracy there is no doubt In the course of an editorial on The Congressional Race" it says: Tt is also true that the election of Mir Cameron, taking cognizance of the statehood promises made to Governor Kibbey by President Roosevelt and A1r. Taft, would assure Arizona statehood, but it is not a certainty that MT. Taft will be elected and that he will be in a position to re- deem his pledges. Even if Taft is elected and gives Arizona statehood, it might enable the republicans to organize the new state and this would be a public calamity"
 In the language of MT. Dooley, There ye ar-re" Nothing could be palmer. The election of Mir. Cam eron- would assure Arizona state hood but it would be better to have no statehood than to have a repub- lican state. There is the voice of not only the Review but of every active supporterNof MT. Smith.
 We do not believe that a, majority of the voters of either party place their party ascendancy above state hood. We think that most repubH cans would vastly prefer to live in a democratic state rather than in a territory and We have no doubt that most democrats would rather be full fledged citizens of a republican state than to remain in a condition of territorial dependency.
 We are sure though that the dem ocratic politicians, if they believed statehood would make Arizona re- publican, would rather that it would remain a territory forever. These politicians will find themselves out numbered when the votes are count ed, by those who care more for Arizona and for themselves than they do for the group of leaders, who have no thought beyond the offices.
 But we do not see how the mere act of admission is going to change the political complexion of Arizona If it is democratic now there is no reason why it should not be demo- cratic at the first state election. There might however be a result Of admission that would change the politics of the new state That would be the great influx of home seekers and investors who always flock to new born states. This in Aux might make Arizona republican or it might increase the assumed democratic majority. The average citizen of the territory, whatever his politics, would be glad to take his chances on that. The increase in ! the value of his property in conse- quence of the influx and his added | dignity as a citizen in consequence | Of admission would a thousand times compensate for any political over turning that might ensue.

The California newspapers do not fail to mention, among the excel lent qualities of mind and heart of Lieutenant Selfridge, the fact that he was a Californian. We believe that this claim to immortality rests solely upon the circumstance that the mother of the unfortunate lieutenant lives or has lived in California.
