GOV. k|BbEY |S CONFIDENT
 OF ADMISSION

Concerning the arrival of Gov Hib- bey in Phoenix from Washington the Arizona Republican says:
 Governor Kibbey returned yoster- day morning from Washington where he went g couple of weeks ago on re- Ceipt of a telegram from Chairman Hamilton of the house committee on territories informing him Of the pun pose of the committee to bring in the statehood bill. The governor feels confident of the passage of the bill this session. This confidence is shar- -d by all other friends of tho terri- tcrics.
 All realize that the unexpected may happen but the chances are greatly against such a happening. This view .of the case has been arrived at after taking into consideration and discount ing every possible adverse influence.
 Said the governor. ''T feel quite con .fldent that the bill providing for sep arate statehood for New Mexico and Arizona will be passed by the congress and that by this time next year we win be under cur own state govern ment. Unless some unforeseen or un- |exuected event shodid intervene, the bill will pass. in my opinion. before the 4th of March next. have e5pecia! reasons for this belief"

 UNCERTAIN
Mark Smith 0ecIarse No One Can Tell Which Party Would Benefit By Statehood For the Territories

Following is an interview with Mark smith in the Washington Post:
 Arizona. when admitted to the un- ion, will be like any other state-it
 will not send one democrat to the senate and one republican. but will choose two members of one party" said Delegate Mark Smith, at the New Willard.
 Tt is by TO means certain that the Legislature would be democratic. The territory is democratic now by a small majority, and if admitted to the union 1t would depend largely upon what sections of country we would draw our
 immigrants from whether the state would be democratic or republican. IL Is a peculiar thing that fin most cases new states have disappointed the par ty under whose administration they have been admitted. washington md Montana both
 were admitted when the democrats were in power, but the very first cleo ton the republicans gained control, and the states sent republicans Go the senate. Wyoming came in under re- publican rule. and it has continued to be a republican state, but even in that case the first chance the state had 1t elected a democrat to con gress. So l say, 1t is hard to tell what the political complexion of Ari- zona would be after it's admission.
 ''It has been the experience of all new states that a great influx of peo- pie go in after admission to the un. ion. and 1t will oc the same wlfh Ari. zona, If we should draw our people from Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma, we would become 2 democratic state; but if the people were to como from Iowa, Wisconsin. Illinois. Ohio and other northern states. the chances are the state would be republican. It is ridiculous, therefore, to assert that the legislature of Arizona would elect one republican senator and one dem ocrat It would be, as say. just like any other state.
 "Yes, the people Of Arizona are very fond of Senator Foraiser. Per sonally l regard him as the greatest man in the republican party. and 1t will be a great Isss to that party when he retires. He has only one equal in the senate, and that is Bailey. have come to look upon him now a5 the highest type of American statesman"

DANGER IS LOOMING IN
 HIS BELIEF
President EnIarges Harm Pos Sible to Result from the Anti Japanese Movement in Cal ifornia in Long Telegram

WASHINGTON, Feb The policy If the administration is to combine maximum efficiency in achieving the real object which the people of the Pacific slope have at heart, with the min mum of friction and trouble which misguided men who have advocated .uch action as this against which l protest are following the policy which combines the very minimum efficiency with the maximum of insult. and shich. while totally failing to achieve any real result for good, yet might ac- complish infinite harm"
 In this language. President Roose- welt, in q long telegram to Speaker stanton of the California assembly, set forth today the governments view of the Japanese school bill.
 The president states the bnl gives just cause for irritation and that the soyernrhent would be obliged lmmc- diately to take action in the federal courts to test such legislation, bC cause 1t is held to be clearly in vio- lation of the treaty obligations Of the United States.
 The telegram to Speaker Stanton was sent after a conference with Sen ator Flint and Representative Kahn, of California, and Franklin K. Lane, of the interestate commerce eOmnis- ision.
 In letter the president also said: T trust there win be no misunder- standing of the federal governments attitude. We are szeaiously endeavor ing to guard the ffterests of Caiifor- nia and the entire west in accordance with the desires of our western peo- pie. By friendly agreement with Japan We are now carrying out 8 pol icy which. while meeting interests and desires of the Pacific slope. is yet ccmpa uble, not merely with mutual selErespeet, but with mutual esteem and arbitration between Americans and Japanese.
 The Japanese government is loyal ly and in good faith doing it's part to carry out this policy, precisely as the American government Is doing. TAe policy aims at mutuality, obligation and behavior.
 "In accordance with il, the purpose Is that Japanese shall come here ex- actly as Americans go to Japan. hich is in effect that travellers, stuGents, persons engaged in international busi- ness, men who sojourn for pleasure or study and the like, shall nave free access from one country to the other. and shall be sure of the best Of treat ment, but that there shall be no set clement in mass by people of eithe, country in the other.
 During the last six months under this policy, more Japanese have Jeff the country than have come in, and the total number in the United States has diminished by over 2,000.
 These figures are absolutely accu- rate and need not be impeached. uB' such bill as the school accomplishes literally nothing whatever in the line of the object aimed at and gives just and grave cause for irritation; while in addition the Unted States govern ment would be obliged immediately to take action in the federal courts to test such legislation, as We hold it

 with the citizens Of the Pacific coast on the entire subject, and particularly with the people of California on the question of a segregated school. No one familiar with actual conditions iri the western states, and our experience with Chinese and Japanese, and who Is able to appreciate the fact that 1t is utterly impossible for the white and yellow races to assimilate, will admit that 1t is proper or advisable for Japanese adult to be housed in the same school room with girls and boys of otfr own race, and the state, in my opinion, has the power to en- 2ct legislation enabling school trus- tees to provide for segregation"
 The senator further stated that the president had informed him that cer- tain matters were under consideration by the. state department, himself, and the Japanese government at the pres ent time, which, # brought to success ful conclusion. would eliminate the cause for complaint. Radical action at this time by several states would hamper and render mere difficult the desired result, and added that his appreciation of the possibility of ein- barTassing the federal government In these negotiations prompted his tele- gram to the legislature q few days ago.
