STATEHOOD QUESTION
 DEVELOPS NEW KINKS

Washington, March 5.-The question in volved in statehood legislation that is giv- ing the most trouble to the Senate com mittee on territories Is whether suffrage shall be limited to such residents of Ari- zona and New Mexico as can speak Eng fish. If this limitation were made, it is declared, it is practically certain to ma jority of witnesses who have appeared be- fore the committee that the proposed new states would be democratic.
 Unless provision can be made against the disfranchisement of many voters in both Arizona and New Mexico it is prob able there will be no statehood legisla- ton at the present session. Many repub- lcans take the opposition view that If the Arizona Legislation is allowed to stand, one party awll be able to gain control of the election machinery, it is stated, and forever jeopardze the chances of any other party through the dsfranchisement of it's voters.

TO THE VOTERS OF COUNTY.
 My attention has been called to an article sngned by William F. Fort, which was published in the Birmingham Ledger last, Saturday and which was in part as follows:
 ''The present election for senior judge of the criminal court fills only the unex- pired term of Judge Dan Greene. I have been appointed to fill this unexpired term of two @ years and am going ahead with the work every day. I have held this position for year and ask the people to retain me as senior judge for the two years for which was appointed
 At first I thought that perhaps Mr. Fort in writing the article had merely not given what he had written care full consideration before handing it to tie printer. But MT Fort has reiterated the statement in a speech he made Thurs day night before the Democratic club of Pratt City. And in that speech and by his words he sought to create the ini- presson that he had been appointed by the governor for a term of two years and. by inference, it would be unfair to take 1t away from him at the coming election.
 The facts about MT. Forts appoint ments. for there have been two of them, are as follows:
 In March, 1909, Governor Conner ap- pointed MT. Fort. who at that time was the sovernor's private secretary senior judge of the criminal court to hold during the illness of Judge Dan Greene. This was a temporary arrangement-it be- ing fully understood that he was to hold the position during tEe disability of Judge Greene; and was not for any def mite time, When in February, 1910, Judge Dan Greene resigned his 1udgship, va cancv was thereby created. And Judge Greene knew, and Governor Conner knew, and MT. Fort knew, and everybody else krew, that by reason of the resignation the people would be called upon to elect scme one to fill Judge Dan Greenes nn- expired term; and that the nomination would have to be made at the primary,

STATEMENT FROM MIR. BEDDOW

and the election would come in November of this year. And Mr. Fort knew, and Governor Conner knew, and everybody else , knew that the appointment was not for a term of two years, as has been stated, but that it could not possibly extend beyond the general election in November of thls year. So MT. Fort should not say to the people that he was appointed to a term of two years, and that he is asking the people to retain him for the two years to which he was appointed. have shown that his first appointment was for the indefinite period of Judge Greene's ill., ness; which might have losted for q few days only, or for months, in fact, it. did last for something like a year. i have also shown that when he received his sec ond appointment upon the resignation of Judge Greene that he well knew it could rot extend beyond the rnonth of Novein- her, 1910. So that, he was not appointed for a period of two years. one of which he has served. And his plea to the people to this effect is not based upon sub stantial fact. is without merit and should not receive consideration.
 When he was appointed the last time he knew that if he was to hold after November. 1910, he would have to receive the office at the hands of the people. And he should have. known. or strongly sus- .Iected. that if he offered before the peo- rle, another nah. or men, would exercise their rights as citizens of this county and also submit their claims to the people. This, MIR. CATALAN has done, and we do not recognize any right in MT. Fort to claim preferment simply because he has received at the hands of Governor Co., mer q temporary appointment to this judCship. MIR CATALAN takes the po- sition that any man in this county has an equal right with him to offer for any DCsitiOn he may desire
 We confidently base MIR. CAHALANS claims to preferment upon HIS ABILITY, ELS EXPERIENCE, AND HIS PE- CULIAR FITNESS for the position to which he aspires. Respectfully submitted.

MT. John Mclaughlin, 1419 School St., Chicago, H., and his wife express their appreciation of the merits of Pe- runa in the following words.
 we are pleased to testify as to the merits of Peruna in cases of catarrh. We were both troubled with catarrh of the head and lungs for several years, and did not seem to find anything which would benefit us.
 Finally on the recommendation of friend, we took Peruna, and in a short time were on the road to re- covery.
 Now we keep Peruna in the house all the time, and when either of us contracts a cold few doses will set us right. It acts as a preventive of ca- tarrh, and is also very fine to build up the strength.
