disfranchises the Mexican voters who do not possess the educational requi- site"
 If Mexican" citizens of Arizona who are of sufficient education to edit and write for Spanish papers are so easily misled as to the meaning of statutes and of news dispatches-which affect them, it is small wonder that the voters of deficient education are regu- iarly fooled by professional politicians
 As matter of fact. The Republican, has been pointing out for months the injustice of the educational qualifica- ton" law of the late legislature. and has repeatedly approved the proposal of senate leaders to repeal this law but "El Mensajero' has been led to believe that the senate committee took an exactly opposite attitude. The statehood bill. which we printed in full yesterday. fixes the qualification of voters in accordance with the Arizona law of 1901-thus nullifying the dem ocratic educational qualification" law of last year.

LIFE WAS TOO HARD FOR HER.

Here is d story that rather takes hold of ths sympathies of the reader
 A 9-year-old little girl in Delaware had to go downstairs and get treakfast for her father. Her mother was i'll. and theS father had some chores which he always did for a neighbor in the morning before ,he started for his regular days work. In that in terim. during the usual preparation of breakfast. he managed to increase an income that was none too large at best
 The morning in question the little girl went down and lighted the fire. Her thin skirts caught the blaze. and she tried to get out of the house before she was forced to scream. She didn't want to alarm her mother Something bigger than heroism in that. And the cruel flames burned her so that she died from the effects of them.
 Little 9-year-old girl, They found her at the side of the alley wall, where she had evidently tried to wrap herself in a piece Of old carpet. that she had evidently dragged from the kitchen floor as she hurried to place where the pain-driven cries would not reach the sick mothers ears
 Only g years old. and had to get breakfast That may not he uncum- mon. but it is pathetic Take up the little girls of your home. and put your arms about them. and thank the good Lord they are more fortunate. Thank the Lord that you are we'll and able tO take care of them.-Salt Lake Herald.

Two Statesmen of Illinois.

The state of Illinois has two con spicuous statesmen in congress: Sen ator Shelby M. Cullom. aged 80, and Speaker Joseph c. Cannon, aged A. Each of these men has lived long enough to have become wise in poli- tics. but Senator Cullom seems to have improved hIs opportunities bet ter than has hIs distinguished fellow citizen. In letter to the Illinois Re publican Editorial association. Senator Cullom the other day stated flatly the republican, party lis in danger of de- feat unless we harmonize our differ ences and present solid front to the enemy in the coming campaign"
 MT. Cannon, also. we presume. would like to see harmony. But the har- mony MT Cannon wants is the har- mony of complete surrender and sub mission of all republicans who have found it difficult to agree with his ideas or approve his tactics. In the opinion of MT Cannon. the new tariff law is not only the most perfect law ever enacted, but republicans who pre- sume to object to some of its pro- visions are traitors to the party and should be read out of it Above all the republicans who have objected to the surrender of all legislative initia- tive and of all decision as to the ex- pediency of this or that legislation into the hands of the speaker. are double dyed traitors to the party.
 MT. Cannon's ill-natured and un- gracious reference to the representa- tives who advocated reform of the rules but on Saturday night refused to vote him out of the office of speaker, has raised such storm of criticism from the press throughout the United States that even he has been driven to take a tack in his sails It is now given out that maybe the speaker was misquoted."
 It is obvious that if the party is to be harmonized it will be through fol- lowing the wise counsel of such men as President Taft and Senator Gull lom. and not the angry leadership of Speaker Cannon.

In his address before the chamber of commerce at Rochester. New York
 the other night, President Taft re iterated his demand that congress shall carry out the republican partys plat form pledges In order to redeem these pledges. said MT Taft. congress must pass the bill amending the in terstate commerce law. the bill for postal savings banks. the anti -injunc- tion bill, the statehood bill. and the conservation bills After that is done. ." he said with emphasis it does not matter what happens at the next cleo ton We will shave, done something the country will be grateful for, for some time" It may yet be necessary for MT. Taft to take the warning fac tions of the house by the neck and bump their heads together as old fashioned school teachers used to do: but as yet there is really no reason to fear that the republicans in congress will fail to uphold the administration

Local Mexican Misapprehension.

Inability to translate English cor that regard-has led our local Mexi- can contemporary. "El Mensajero." and one of it's. correspondents as well. into needless alarm as to the status of our Mexican" citizens under the new statehood bill The latest issue of that paper is devoted mainly to a discus sion of the educational qualification" of voters in this territory-all on the assumption that congress proposes to disfranchise "Mexicans" who cannot read
 Of course exactly the contrary is the fact The late legislature of Ari- zona did disfranchise voters of this class. and. the new statehood bill re- peals this legislative provision. One might suspect that some democratic humorist has been playing a joke op "El Mensaiero" Thus begins an edi- torial in that paper Uranslate6:
 
 the 18th instant. the bill to admit Arizona as d state contains a clause depriving of the right of suffrage the voters who cannot read a section of the constitution of the United States"
 All the comments of the Mexican paper are therefore predicated upon the assumption that congress proposes ,rfr ha first page of the paper is given to d letter from correspondent who makes the same mistake. He takes as his text this dispatch from Washington printed in The Republican of March 12:
 The statehood bill Washington, March 1.-The senate committee on territories today voted to report fa- vorably the New Mexico and Arizona statehood bill. after adopting an amendment AGAINST disfranchising the Mexican voters by the educational qualification.
 "El Mensajero's" correspondent says of this dispatch Gin Spanish, of of course):
 At the time of writing the present article I take in my hands the leading English paper of Arizona. The Ari- zona Republican. which publishes the following telegram" And he puts the dispatch which We have quoted above into Spanish as follows:
 "Proyecto de Estado. Washington. Marzo 11-La Confusion de Territories en el Senado voto hoy recomendar fla vorablemente el proyecto. despues de haber adoptatdo una enmienda que desfranquicia a los votantes meXi canos que no posean el requisite edu- cacional"

The defeat yesterday of William R. Buchanan, the republican candidate in the Fourteenth Massachusetts con gressional district, by a plurality of more than 5000 against a majority of nearly 15,oOo for his predecessor.

Buchanan through out the campaign was an avowed op- ponent of Cannonism. To the pub lie at large, unfamiliar with the con ditions affecting this bye-eIection. it will seem to be a hint to the repub- lican party to move faster in tho business of redeeming party pledges and to be more expeditions in finding a solution of the problem of the high cost of living. as well as remedy for it.

teroplane Patents.

That the movement to invaiidate the Wright patents in France is a result of the suit brought in the United States to prevent the use of foreign machines here by Paulhan is not at all unlikely. News of the pro- ceedings about to be instituted by the syndicate of French manufacturers. however. will hardly disturb the Day ton inventors No doubt they will welcome an official definition of their rights on both sides of the Atlantic. Having taken steps to secure a deci- sion of this character in America they should be equally interested in obtain ing one in the only other country in which they have thus far found com mercial rivals
 The ground on which the cancella- ton of the patent of 1904 will be asked, according to a Paris dispatch. is that the Wrights allowed more than a specified period to elapse before ex- plotting their invention in France. It is a fact. nevertheless. that the manufacture of Wright machines has already begun in that country. The industry started there almost as soon as it did in the United States. Be sides. no American machines. we be- lieve. have been exported to France. Apparently there is no ground for the complaint that the French workman is being robbed by the American It looks very much as if the Wrights could show that they had exercised due diligence in beginning business on French soil. and the tribunal before Hrrhirh r1-il1 hn hoard which presumably has legal discretion, may look leniently upon any trifIing delay. if 1t shall be satisfied that the spirit of the law has been complied with
 The question of Priority of inven- ton" has also been raised in France. the syndicate which has assumed the aggressive in that country offering the plea presented by Curtiss in his defence before a United States court a few monthes ago. The first point to be considered in both cases is the precise language employed in the pat ents to describe the novel features for which protection is sought. The second is the evidence presented to prove that these have been previously used by others. or that the patentee even if the originator of them. has been slow to ask for exclusive rights No one can forsee the outcome of the proceedings in either country, but Americans will heartily sympathize with the efforts of the Wrights to obtain the exclusive enjoyment of all their legal priviIeges.-New York Tribune.

Sunday Funerals Opposed.

Fort Collins.-Persons who are
thinking of dying must choose day
early in the week, or at least not die
at time when funeral on Sunday
would be convenient. In other words,
the Ministerial association of Fort Col
Inns has adopted resolutions against
Sunday funerals, declaring that they
work unnecessary hardships on the
sexton of the cemetery, the undertak-
er and the clergyman. Also that Sun
day funerals interfere with Sabbath

lied and thoroughly equipped for a
lasting career as a national institu-

officers were chosen for the coming
year. The next convention city was
not chosen, this being left in the
hands of an executive committee.
Former Gov. l.. Bradford Prince of
New Mexico was unanimously chosen
president. Two other candidates
were placed in nomination, but upon
motion that Colorado should be given
the privilege of naming the next presi-
cent, the Colorado delegation held a
caucus, reporting the name of the eX-
governor of New Mexico as their
choice. His election was then de-
elared. For the office of secretary
there was no opposition. Clinton l..
Oliver, who acted as temporary sec
retary, and upon whom devolved
large portion of the work of creating
the first congress, was rewarded with
that office unanimously. e. II. Shep-
ard, editor of Better Fruit" was
elected treasurer. Each state delega-
ton was allowed to choose vice
president. For the five states repre-
sented by delegates in person the fol
lowing vice presidents were named;
Colorado, John C. Bell; New Mexico,
Alex Gusdorf; Washington, c. G..
