Bisbee daily review., 1910-02-26

Arizona, condemnatory of insincerity
 and hypocrisy. demanding only what
 is right. The constitution of Arizona
 is for the people of Arizona to form.
 They are the ones who have turned
 deserts into garden spots; tunneled
 the mountains and the hills for the
 treasures that enrich a state and her people: who have founded the most | progressive public school system in the United States today; whose rev. erence for home life is that of the
 purely American type. The resolution
 of the Douglas Republican Club was directed to a nation. and not to the interests or to 2 coterie of office
 holding politicians. 1t was a simple appeal to the people of the United States for justice sacredly promised. but too long delayed. The Repubii-
 can Club of Douglas has no apologies to offer. nothing to take back The
 defeat of the Dillingham; biil and the
 passage of the Hamilton bill with out any of the annoying delays of the substituted measure from Yer mont. mems an overwhelming vic tory for the republican party in A-i-
 zona In 1910. To pass the Dilling-
 ham bill means to brandish a club over the heads of the people of Ari zona. A club is Sn excellent weapon fin the hands ot . true servant Of the people. but 1t is a puny affair indeed when waved by selfIshness fin an attempt to beat the people in to a compliance with its win.
 Ia the Dispatch of February go after the Dispatch and the Douglas republican club had been lambasted by republican newspapers and lead ing republicans throughout the ter ritory. another editorial was pub lished singing entirely a different tune on the senate statehood bill as will be seen from the following extract:
 Tt is only in it's delay of state hood that the Dillingham; bill is to be condemned The Dispatch has from Washington to the effect that before the bill is fin. ally passed by congress 1t will be so amended. in accordance with the forwarded by the Repub- lican Club of Douglas. that the diff ference in time in the securing of statehood. as between the Dilling- ham and the Hamilton bill. will amount to but four or five weeks at most; that under the provisions Of the Dillingham; bill, as it will finally reach the president, the constitu- -ional convention will have been called and accomplished it's work within the next eight months. and that the constitution will be ready for submission to the president and congress on the opening days of the session in December"
 We had not expected that the Dis batch would be whipped into eating ,row on the resolutions of the Doug las Republican club so early in the game, but we have predicted that there would be strenuous hedging on the resolutions, before the en- tire statehood incident was closed. as witness the following which ap- peared in the International on Feb ruary 14th. two days after the reso- lutions were adopted:
 Douglas republicans are protest ing against the humiliating senate statehood bill. But we can inform the Douglas republicans that it will be the senate statehood bill or none. When that bill is passed we expect to see some strenuous hedging among the Douglas republicans on the resolutions adopted Friday night by the republican club"
