THE TUREiNG DOWN OF TEDDY

The republican executive commit tee elected Vice President Sherman temporary chairman over Mir. Theo- dore Roosevelt who was never more astonished in his life, for he asked 10 be elected and labored (and stiIl labors and always will labor) under the deiusion that he has but to ask for what he wants to get it.
 Then Mir. Rooseyelt-through his friends-took the matter before the people who were to elect delegates by primary to the convention. In other words. Roosevelt appealed from the executive committee 10 the peo- ,Fle. The primaries were held Tues- day and strange to say. the repub- licans of New York appear to have endorsed the action of the executive committee in turning Mir. Roosevelt, down. A any rate the primaries did not show that there was a stam- pede to him.
 Now, MT. Roosevelt proposed to ex. hibit his sore toe to the New York republican convention, with the very probable result that he will get turned down again. says the Fl Paso . Times.
 This Is ignificant-all the more significant that the people have de- nied Mfr. RooseTelt's small ambition to be temporary chairman of the republican state convention of New York immediately after his return from his ~hooray" swing through the i, west-a journey undertaken immedi ately after the bosses" as he ds-
 nounced them, had beaten him for
 the chairmanship and doubtless with
 view to showing the bosses and
 impressing the people with his power with the populace.

THE INALiENABLE
 RIGHTS OF ARIzONANS.

We favor the immediate adulis- sion of New Mexico and Arizona as separate states in the union"
 This is the language of the re- publican national platform. It is Q straight out declaration of the policy of the republican party and of the men who comprise the republican party. It contains no ifs" nor and" It is unconditional and is not hampered by proviso of any kind.
 Contained in the republican plat form is no statement that the repub- lican party favors the admission of Arizona only on condition that Ari- zona shall write a constitution which shall be acceptable to any man or ser of men now holding office of any sort by grace of republican votes. There are no strings of any kind attached to the admission of Ari- zona in the declaration of the re pubican national platform.
 For any number of republican members of congress to assume that they will admit Arizona to statehood only on condition that Arizona shall write a constitution which shall Dc satisfactory to them. is rank impu' dence and a betrayal of the repub ican party.
 For any man or set of men outside of Arizona to declare that as the price of statehood Arizona mus write a constitution which will de prive the peopie of Arizona of com plete control of their state govern men. is impudent, impertinent ana an intolerable interference in tn, affairs which do not concern them
 The people of Arizona should writ, their own constitution. In that con stitution they should be free to in clude such provisions as will enable them to retain the most compIet'

control of their own affairs. They are the ones and the only ones. who are vltally interested. If. in their opinion. the inclusion of the initia- tive. referendum and recall will best preserve to the people of Arizona control over Arizona's public affairs, then they should include these pro visions. Any man whether he be "a member of either branch of con gress. a department official. or 8 hired agent Of plutocracy, who threatens that Arizona will not De admitted into the union unless these provisions are eliminated, is an i'm pertient medd.er
 Arizona should stand squarely upon , its own rights. It should declare to { every official elected by republican votes that 1t demands the fuifillment of the pledge in the republican na- tional platform, and that any repub- hcan in or out of congress who re fuses to abide by the platform dec laration is not true republican.
 Events of this year have proved  there has been a great awakening of repuDnSeus recently. Traitorous republicans-those who chose to serve plutocracy rather than the people-haye had their little day. They are being relegsted to the rear.
 Republicans all over the land are i fighting the same battle. That fisAt in its last analysis is to compel off cers elected by Republican princi- ples-to make the republican party truly representative of the American people and not the servant of Special interests. Republican voters demand that republican platform pledges shah be literally obeyed. They will no longer have their wishes ignored. The elections held teach clearly one lesson-repubican voters propose to elect to office only men who can be trusted to represent real republican sentiment and stand for the peoples interest rather than private interest Every republican official executive or legislative. will be measured by his fealty to republican platform declar- ations The Chicago platform is a test of republican faith. The official who departs from it is not a re publican even though elected by republican voters.
 Arizona can well afford to rest its fight for admission squarely upon the republican national platform and send hiking from the territory any officious intermeddler who comes threatening that she will not be ad- mitted into statehood unless she writes constitution that must De immediately amended to make it ser viceabie.
 If Arizona wants the initiative. referendum and recall in her constI- tuition, let her write it iR. Is any group in oficedon undertakes to deny her admission to statehood o- that account there is a mighty host of real republicans throughout the land that will make Arizona's fight theirs.-Los Angeles Express (Re publican).

CLIMAX IN WASHINGTON

!
 WASHINGTON
 It may be said that the climax of insurgency has about been reached , when the republicans of the state of Washington, the home of Richard A. Ballinger. turn their backs on him and vote his avowed opponent and political antithesis, Miles Poindexter. i their candidate for the high honor of United States senator. Only recent ly the secretary himsei. said with characteristic positiveness, 'Poin- dexter will not be elected" but he is elected and by plurality of more than S0.000 in a republican vote or about 10o,G00-an unexpected tri- umph for enc and condemnation of the other.
 Baliinger's champions have all along, when pushed to the wall by facts proving his unfitness to direct the affairs of his great office in be- half of the people, taken refuge in the statement that in his home state the secretary was one Of the most honored and popular citizens. No one there, they averred doubted his ' honesty or sincerity. That was the answer Of Gc=c=se- Hay and others less than fortnight ago at the con servation congress when Governor Stubbs of Kansas scored the Seattle man.
 The result of Tuesdays primaries in Washington is a really blistering , condemnation Of Ballinger. for in the nature os things. if the Washing | toniaHs held him in high esteem, | they would welcome the first opDor, | tIInity to rebuke his critics at the polls. Instead, they have added their
 voice, pregnant with eloquence, to i the chorus of demand that the rec
 reant secretary retire from the office he has sought to prostitute for the
 forces of privilege. They have de-
 clared themselves in full sympathy
 with the moral awakening.
 Of what possible service to any body can a report of the BaEingsr
 investigating committee be now, In
 the face of this overwhelming con
 demnation of the secretary by hls
 own community? How can the ma jority members of the committee who
 have been jockeying for months to
 put off their whitewashing for po-
 litical reasons be so dense as to
 think than anything but ribaldry
 awaits the report? Their delay after
 tne doubly long enough to sift the
 evidence and present their partisan
 Bindings has been a confession oi
 their weak position, and Tuesdays
 result may with reason be said to be
 in part a rebuke also to them
 Pcindexter's great victory is, more
 over, rebrke to President Taft
 After announcing weeks ago that he
 would net interfere in state contests
 Mr. Taft added another to his list of blunders by using the weight o 7 his office in an effort to combine the pro-Baliinger vote against Poindextel } by urging the withdrawal of two can

 There has been a general disposi tion to judge MT. Taft with charit,
 in the Ball.nger matter. His sup : posed fealty to his secretary ha been attributed more to a reluctanc, to deal harshiy with a cabinet mem Der. That would have been in tway creditable to bis heart, if no
