IT WAS HARD WORK.

According to reports brought back from the republican national conven- tion to Arizona and New Mexico by the delegates from these territories, there was strenuous opposition en- countered on the proposition to insert in the republican platform a positive declaration favoring the immediate admission of the remaining territories as separate states into the union. Con gressmen Payne of New York and DalzelI of Pennsylvania were positive in their opposition to committing the party to the admission of the new states. just as they have opposed the statehood bills for years as they have been put before congress.
 It is not creditable to the republi- can party to say that the delegates had hard work in securing the adop, tion of the statehood plank in the plat form. This declaration was only one in favcr of granting the plain right of self-govenment to the people who came to the west as pioneers and de veloped Arizona and New Mexico and fitted them by every precedent in the history Of state-making for admission into the union. While past experience has taught the people of Arizona and New Mexico not to rely implicitly on statehood promises of the republican party. still we believe they may now be assured that a pnb!ic sentiment has been created throughout the country demanding that justica be done to the two remaining territories strong enough to force their admission either

ments concerning their campaign funds? Do they expect to receive con tributions of tainted money? Yes:
 By an overwhelming majority, the machine republicans defeated an at tempt to insert il the platform a plank authorizing the ascertaining of the value of the railroads. From the zeal with which the machine delegates hunted that plank out of sight one would have thought it had been intro duced surreptititiousIy by the enemy of mankind, and that it smelled of birthstone. But it was a Roosevelt plank. The injunction plank adopced by the convention was a retreat from the position taken by the president. Tn order to prevent swollen fortunes and equalize the burdens of govern ment, the president advocated an in come tax. Not a word was said in the platform about an income tax. The machine republicans, with unparal. leled nerve" calmly rebUked the president and turned down" his sug- gestion. The president in che of his strenuous messages has called atten- ton to the fact that a conspiracy has been formed among wealthy law breakers to prevent enforcement of law and evade the punishment prOyid- ed by law for law-brealIers. In the republican platform there is not one word concerning predatory wealth.
 The subjects that will engage the attention of American citizens who wish to cast conscientious votes are nearly all social subjects. Among them are child labor. hopeless pover- ty, lack of employment and predatory wealth, which, by the way, are all related subjects. There is not one of them of which the republican machine is not deathly afraid.

William J. Bryan is a much misun-
 derstood man. If there is sincere, conscientious man in the United States we believe Mir. Bryan is. The following taken from speech he made in Buffalo, N. Y, shows Bryan as he really is at heart: q shall be content if, when my days are num- bered, it can be said of me that I was a toiler, laboring as best l could. l have nothing to ask of the American people except to be permitted to spend the remainder of my life repay ing the debt of gratitude that I owe them. If I ever hold office it must not be because want it, but because they want me to serve them. Some times eastern papers have called me a dictator. How could l be a dicta- tor? What have I with which to force one single human being? What have I with which to influence one single vote? l have no patronage with which tC corrupt you. I never had. have no wealth with which to buy you. never had. have no corporations be- hind mo with which In terrorize you
 I never had. What is the sum of my offending? It is that have talked to you frankly and fearlessly on the things in which we are both interest ed. It is that lave defended democ- racy as I have understood democracy"

by the remaining session of the six tieth congress or by the first session of the sixty-first congress. which will be convened a year from next Deeenl- Der.
 Arizopa has special cause to be proud of the near approach of state hood Because of the determined stand taken by the people of this ter ritory against joint statehood two stars are to be added to the fiag in stead of one; four United States sen ators are to be added to the strength of the west in congress. Had Arizona been so shortsighted as New Mexico and agreed to the jointure of the two territories, everlasting regret would have been the result and sectional strife would never have ended in the new state. Instead of one unwieldly and inharmonious state we are tc have two states, both of which will soon rival any to be found west of the Missisissippi river; instead of contin ual grouch in the joint state because of the-memory of injustice done tho people, there will be the satisfaction of those who receive justice and fail treatment to spur the inhabitants o the two states to greater exertions il the matter of development and pru gress.
 While the republican delegates a Chicago are said to have had har, work in forcing the declartlon favor able to the admission of two sepa rate states we would not be under stood as even intimating that thu masses of the republican party woul, approve any action by that part which would longer keep us ava from the privilege of self-governmen which has been won by the develop ment of the mines, by the reclama ton of the desert valleys to fruitful fields, by the establishment of school and churches, and by the establish ment of good government.

 William J. Bryan says the republi- can party is in full retreat and that is the explanation of it's cowardIy, stu pid, irrelevant, impertinent, wObbly, wishy washy platform. Mir. Bryan of course indorses the Roosevelt reform policies. The republican platform re- pudiates them. A vote for Bryan will be a vote for Roosevelt Don't forget that on election day. If you should vote for Taft you would be repudiat- ing Rooseveltism and Americanism as well as Bryanism, and would be doing what you could to help deliver the country into the hands of the repub- lican spoilers. MT. Bryan has called the attention of the country to the fs .t that panic-stricken delegates at Il . convention tumbied over each oth- CT in their efforts to get away from reforms, some of which had been in dorsed by the president himself. Al though publicity of campaign funds was advocated by the president and Teft, the convention by crushing ma sori:y voted down a proposition to in- clude in the platform a declaration in favor of such publicity.

with some account of Mir .Harriman's heated conversation in reference to a certain contribution of S250,000 10 the republican campaign fund in 1904 after a confidential conference with the president of the United States.
 It was to My Oar Sherman" that MT. Roosevelt wrote the "shorter-and- uglier-word" letter of October 8, 1906, which reviewed the Hartman conver- sation in which "he expressed great dissatisfaction with me, and said in effect that so long as 1 was at the head of the republican party or it was dominated by the policies which I ad- yocate and represent he would not support it, and was quite indifferent whether Hearst beat Hughes or whether the democrats carried con- gress or nn'
 It was to Mir. Sherman that Mir. Hartman had eonfided his views of constitutional government which MT
 Roosevelt summarized in the foTiow- ing language: You inform me that he told you that he did not care in the least, because those people (Hearsts} were crooks and that he could buy them; that whenever he wanted legislation he could buy it; that he could buy congress and that 1 if necessary he could buy the judi ciary'"
 As a participant iH one of the most Illuminating incidents of modern po- litical history MT. Sherman really did not need q nomination for yice-presi- dent to add lustre to his name.
 Just why the convention named MT. Sherman is difficult to understand
 Partly, we assume, because the Iowa delegates could not agree as between Deliver and Cummins, and SheTman's nomination was highly satisfactory to Speaker Cannon and the so-called con- gressional crowd. Chiefly because the administration was anxious to do something for a feeble and futile re- publican organization in New York: Hughes declined the nomination, and Sherman was less objectionable than Cortelyou or Woodruff. Incidentally because MT. Roosevelt could not thnK
 of anybody stronger than sherman who would take the nomination and not tax beyond safe limits the pa- tience of an unprecedentedly patient convention.
 Anyway, MT. Sherman is the candi- date He is officially indorsed as a Man of My Type, and that seems to be what the republican party wants.
