ARIZONA MAKES HER DEBUT

With the passage, yester- day, of the Statehood bill by the U. s. Senate, Arizona can rejoice, for it is almost a fore. gone certainty the while the measure received the unan. imous endorsement of both Democratic and Republican members of the Upper House, the Lower House will, when the bill comes before it con. cur with but little hesitancy. Certain it is that Arizona &C., cepts the action of Congress and will endeavor to frame a State Constitution that will meet the appreciation of Pres ident Taft, find endorsement with Congress and win the encomium of the nation for Arizona. To accomplish this allsimportant result it be- hooves e cry progressive we'll meaning citizen of the new State to lend his endeayor to the end that none be sent to the Constitutional Con- vention who fail to obligate themselves to frame a COnsti- tuition that will meet with Congressional approval re- fleet credit upon the august body upon whom the ardu- ous work will fall, and re- dound to the welfare of Arl- zona for all time. There are many able and conscientious men within our confines tried and true-beth Demo crats and Republicans, and the PRosPEcToR is of the be- lief that the public in genera. will see to it that none but those qualified, ,and who will be actuated solely in the up building of this grand com- monwealth, should be chosen. and in so doing leave heritage to the rising generation that may be refer red to with pride and enyied by older States, but none the less prouder and greater than the new State of Arizona just about to don the habliments for which she has so long yearned.
