[By United States Press Assoeiarion}
 WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 2s. - A remnant of the leaders still hangs about the political centers of the cap ital, and some energetic work in the interest of presidential candidates is
 being promoted from here. There is, however, no Washington end, appar- ently, to the big national affairs, in xolving the destinies of the recognized
 controlling elements of the two great
 political parties. And so the ques. tion so frequently asked: Have you
 heard anything about the Arizona
 situation" must be interpreted to mean that the query is prompted through personal interest in the lead CTS of the Arizona fight. Simmered
 down it is found that the interest in the capital practically concerns Dele gate Ralph H. Cameron, who for more than two years has been ex- tending his circle of personal ae- quaintanees and friends among public men, with the result that the same Interest is felt in his personal affairs here as manifested in the election of Arizona at the time he conducted a
 single handed fight, and defeated Mark Smith, who used to give out the impression that he carried the territory in his vest pocket, and that all he had to do was to give his orders, which the people of Arizona would promptly ratify. There are a good many men who come to Wash Ington and stay a few years, and whose presence $ hardly noticeable, but men like Cameron soon attract attention, and at first people used to say ''there is a hustler" and then they began to talk about his fight for statehood, and later to laugh over the blunders of his opponents, and discuss how every phase of the great fight resulted exactly as Cam eron had predicted in advance. His friends held their breath when he refused to commit himself to the re- call of judges. and they fairly chOk- ed when he signed the minority re- port of the committee on territories, but in the end the man who had de clared: "I will secure statehood or never ask for another political of flee" won every point he had con- tended for, and finally when congress has finished he remained at his task, with an office force about double that of the average congressman, cleaning up pensions for veterans and their widows and orphans, pushing Irrigation projects that were included 10 the usual delay that occurs in the departments, and looking after a hundred and one things. In the heart of one of Americas biggest cities, where they do things on 8 tremendous scale, there is a reeog- nized principle that "it is the man. who must do the big things in life, and in the capital the recognition of S'the man" is more emphatic than in commercial life The interest that one hears expressed in the hotels and n the capital in the affairs of Arizona. is because of tEe desire that ''the man" who is the delegate may receive his proper recognition
 at the hands of his own people, whose affairs he has prompted more in a single term in congress than all
