MORE REPUBLICAN, "HARMONY.r

As an evidence of the prevailing replblica.. harmony in the terri tory We note that the Arizona Ga zette is using a club on the politi- cal cranium of J. c. Adams, who was recently installed by the -organiza- ton" as political boss in Arizona. The reason for the assault on Adams by the Gazette is rumor that has been going over the territory to the effect that Adams had decided that ne would cop of the office of territorial treasurer as his part of the political swag.
 The Gazette declares that Adams as an official has proven to be fail ure. Mr Adams was postmaster ot Phoenix for four years and if there was any dissatisfaction concerning his administration no one ever heard of it. Twice was Mir. Adams elected to the office of mayor of the city of Phoenix. The last term he did not serve out because of a city council which he could rot agree with on matters pertaining to the welfare of Phoenix When it became known that Adams had resigned as mayor there was general effort on the part of the business men of the city to induce him to withdraw the resigna, tion, thus proving that his services were regarded as valuable to the city.
 Again the Gazete assails Mir. Adams because of his record as territorial fair commissioner, intimating that there was something discreditable iL that. Regarding this the people ot Arizona have knowledge of the fact that MT. Adams was the originator of the raIr, ana, further. that he was Instrumental in bringing it to it's pres. ent success. It is true that Govern or Kibbey asked Adams for his resig nation, but it is not true that Adams mad been guilty or any act wnIcr would warrant his removal from the position. The joint legislative inves tigation brought out no fact in tn, acts of Mr. Adams, as fair commis sioner, which was discreditable anC he was exhonorated of the charge! made against him by the governor after many witnesses had been heard

ARE ENTITLED TO ADMISSION.

The subjoined editorial is from the Los Angeles Times:
 Governor Kibbey has stepped out of the executive chair of Arizona and Governor Sloan now sits in his place.
 "The new governor has before him a work of great importance, the ac- compnsnnient of winch Will aepena to some considerable extent upon the wisdom and energy of his action We refer to the admission of Arizona to statehood.
 This event cannot much longer be deferred. Probably it will be accom- plished when congress meets in reg ular session; perhaps net in Decem- Der but probably after the holidays. If the Arizona people push with usual macy there appears to be no reason why the enabling act should not be put through promptly after the meet Ing of congress The initiation and direction of efforts toward this desir- able result will naturally rest large ly with the chief executive Of the territory. From all known oi MT Sloan's ability and patriotism, we may expect to see every stone turn ed in the way of this desirable achievement
 Arizona deserves the distinction of being admitted to membership in the national family of states. rne population is there and it is growing rapidly. The wealth of the territory is unbounded, and where that is, there the people will come Not only in mineral wealth, but in agricultural possibilities the future of Arizona is great The completion of the two great irrigation schemes undertaken by the national government, the La guna and Roosevelt uams, brings largs areas of rich lands under culti- vation. There is no strip of terri tory in the country capable of sustain ing a denser population than that along the east bank of the Colorado supply Of Irrigaung water we may look for very rapid development of that portion of the territory and great increase in population along the river. Yuma should grow in popula- tion and business with the develop ment of the country around. Indeed, as the winter climate at that point becomes we'll understood. undoubted- ly large winter population will gath CT at that river to spend salubrious and comfortable days when the east ern states are held in the deathlike grip of northern blizzards.
