THE PROSPECTS
 FOR STATEHOOD.

At the short tenn of congress in 1884. Crsnville H. oury then dele gate from Arizona, introduced the following bills:
 A bill to test the capacity of the several water bearing strata in Ari- zona for an artesian flow. Bill for the establishment of the boundary lines of Indian reserva tions in Arizona.
 Bill to transfer the Indian bureau from the interior to the war depart. ment.
 Bill for the election of territorial governors.
 Bill for the admission of Arizona as a state.
 Had Grant Oury lived long enough he would have seen his hopes for statekood realized, but just how long 1t would have been necessary to have prolonged his useful life can be ' answered by no man living today Witt. the introduction and passage of the Beveridge bill all loyal Ari. zonans believed the end of terri torial vassalage in sight. but through the fool action of light brains in the constitutional convention it now looks as though the coming state. hood star is still afar off. Wild and socialistic as numerous of the constitutional provisions are, it is more than probable that there would have been no decided npposi ton to them, either at home or in Washington had it not been for the one tampering with the judiciary oi the new state. Whatever may be the opinion of the people of Arizona on I
 this measure 1t is almost absolutely certain that it will not receive the sanction of President Taft and the senate. This will probably raise { socialistic howl among the present constitutional yawpers, but Wash ington is too far away to be scared by such screechings.
 If the constitution is beaten al home the same outfit will probably be allowed to try again, but in th' event it goes to Washington wit the stamp of approval on it, ar other election will have to be or dered But in any event a furthe
 appropriation by congress will b
 required, the present one havin
 been exhausted and what is wors,
 exhausted to no purpose. This b, ing true congress will be in no hurr
 with another.

DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS-

 tirely prepared for it. So crush ing was the defeat of the republi- can majority that neither Mir. Can non in the house. ,nor MT. Aldrich in the senate has since been able to summon sufficient interest to ral- Iy their congressional forces. It is doubtful if the house republicans will perform other than the per functory and routine duties com pulso-y at each session, for, when they adjourn in March, they turn over to the present democratic mi nority the entire machinery of the house. and for the first time in sixtaeen years they become the minority in the house of representa- tives.
 Doubly disastrous has been this de feat to the republican party. for the dominant faction has been driy- en from the States to its stronghold in the White House, and whatever of republicanism Remains intact on the field is of insurgent breed, and of no great stability. President Taft is a re actionary. Though his leaders have been wiped out, he must carry on the fight Insurgency will die. In a few months the whole battle will be or again from the White House and against the reactionary forces that will rally around MT. Taft the democratic fight of 1912 must be waged.
 While democratic success all along the line was not more than the dem ocracy deserved, the victory is so widespread, and complete and mo, meutous ss to require a most com urehensiye plan of procedure In the formulation of that plan the best minds of democracy everywhere have instantly devoted themselves The question is, how much time will it require to perfect that policy?
 Every democrat who places. hi country and his party above hi personal ambition will seek by cor sultation and cooperation to aid Il the formation of policy which shal be reasonably satisfactory to ever section of the country; polio which shall promise the greates good to the greatest number.

DISASTROUS FIRE
AT PHOENIX
Adams Hotel and Contents
Totally Destroyed

The Hotel Adams, located at the
corner of Center and Adams streets,
Phoenix, the capital city's most spa
cious and finest hotel, was totally de-
stroyed by fire Tuesday morning in a
conllagration that for over an hour
threatened TO spread throughout the
entire business district. Business
blocks adjoining the hotel and on the
opruside of East Adams and North
Center were damaged by heat, water
and falling walls. The entire loss is
estimated at 1910 600, of which S205, 900
was sustained by j. e. Adams.
One hundred and fifty guests and
employees were in the Adams hotel
building at the time the fire broke out,
at 5:45 Il. m, and it is most miraculous
that only one life was lost, and that in
directly, as the result of the fire. Floyd
Pervus, not a guest of the hotel died
suddenly in the alley near the Donofrio
candy store. as an indirect result of the
shock incident to witnessing the fire.
He was victim of tuberculosis.
Every guest in the building lost
practically all they had, many of them
being fortunate to escape in their night
clothes. Governor and Mrs Il. E.
Sloan and Mr.. and Mrs. B. A. Fowler
came out about the same time. The!
were taken from one of the porcheS on
ladders.
In order to reach them with the lad
ders it was necessary to back an ex-
press wagon up against the sidewalk
and place the ladder upon this. The
longer ladders were then in use at
other parts ef the building.
After they left, some of the guests
thought about their personal effects,
and one woman paid man $40 to get
her trunk out eff the building. He
brought the trunk and she paid him,
only to discover later that be had
brought trunk that belonged to an
other person.

U. S. Supreme Court Decides
in Favor of John St0fteIa

John Stoffe!a on Monday received a
telegram from the attorney represent
ing him before the supreme conrt in
Washington in his suit against lhe
Nugent estate, with the Information
that be had been given decision. the
judgment of the lower court being set
aside. The suit involved a portion of
the estate of the late Isaac Levy, being
the realty adjoining the Yuma Theatre
on The north, on Main street.
The suit involved $4,000 which
Stoffela had loaned upon the pro perry,
which he later purchased. NJ. !. Nu-
gent claimed the property, also, by
virtue of a deed made TO him prior to
the one held by Stoffela, but Stoifela
had his deed recorded first, hence the
suit by Nugent five years ago to quiet
title. Since that time the property
has greatly increased in value.

hOn-Partisan Ticket

At the final meeting of the city coun-
Gil, held Thursday evening, consider
able discussion and controversy was
raised respecting a non-partisan ticket
fled, made up of two candidates for
councilmen from the repu oican ticket.
John Wadin and f. L. Ewing, and the
balance of the democratic city ticket.
Three of these candidates declined
such endorsement, but under the word
ing of the election law they could not
withdraw their names from the ticket
as the law stipulates that such with
drawal must be made within fifteen
days before election day. The city at
.torDey advised Town Clerk RedondO to
ref..r the matter to the attorney gen
eral, who misunderstood the inquiry
and responded with a ruling on the
primary election laws application to
towns, which was beside the question.
There being no time for further COM
munication, the council ordered the
ticket printed upon the ballot, which
has been done.
10 the controversy before the coun-
ell the contending forces were repre-
scented by attorneys-Tom Molloy for
the republican ticket and Henry Wup-
perman for the non partisan adherents.
