 Tt ought to be simple; ought to be general 1t ought to be comprehensive Be and make 1t read like a fundamental law. Don't make your Constitution read like statute'
 These sentiments show exactly where the President stands. If the Constitution IS loaded with all the doctrines demanded by the Democratic party, STATEHOOD IS SURE TO FAIL
 The Journal Miner has conended all along that the safe and wise course to pursue FIRST TO GET and then laer if the people desire the l- itiatve referendum and recall those measures can be adopted.
 There is just issue in this. campaign-STATE- HOOD If you want 1t, vote the Republican ticket for its nominees pledged the very kind of Constitution advocated by the President
