4 CONDITION
 NOT 4 THEORY

NOI IHEOHf
 Arizona is now up against a con dition in Washington and not q theory The statehood resolution has now reached the senate and il will not progress any farther than the senate until there is an agree ment to eliminate the judiciary from the recall provisions of the consti- tution. There seems to be a dispo- sition. including the leaders Of the late constitutional convention. to force the president to assume the responsibility of yetoing the reso- lution when it comes to him. Such an event is not likely to occur for the reason that the president has plenty of friends in the senate who can easily attend to the matter Of delaying consideration Of the state hood resolution during the present session of congress at least. The president has already assumed re- sponsibility of stating positively he will veto the Flood resolution and there has been no apparent out break of indignation against him on that account To our mind any at tempt to force the Flood resolu- tion to the president will fail dur ing this and the next session of congress.
 So, then the question resolves itself into whether the people of Arizona are willing to accept state hood under the condition which has been imposed upon them by the republican majority in congress, or whether they prefer to remain as a territory unless than they can have statehood with the recall Of the judiciary remaining in the con stitdtion
 To refuse what is within our reach now 1t occurs to us nothing less than deliberate suicide of our statehood hopes for probably three or four years, certainly during the continuance of President Taft in the White House
 In the Arizona constitution is a provision making it easy of amend ment by the initiatory plan, when ever a majority of the people of the state may desire to do so. So long as this provision in the constitu ton remains und:sturbed we do not regard the recall feature of the con stitution or any other feature as o sufficient importance to jeOpardiz' the admission of Arizona into tho union. which event would give t' our people the right and power t' govern themselves with the recal feature of the constitution or with out 1t as the majority desired. Bu without statehood we are withou the means to invoke the recall an' without the privilege to choose b election those who conduct our ter rftorial government
 To cur mind the one overshadoN ine desire should be to secure ao mission and to accept the best term obtainabIe. To accept statehoo under the conditions imposed b President Taft and the repubiicai majority of the senate cannot be rs sarded as abandonment of the prir ciple of the recall of the judges b anyone who believes in that feature but it only may be accepted as
 xiIHneness to enter the union no' -sa provide whatever is now denie after admission has been secured
 Statehood now would add great 10 the industrial progress of Ar zona: it would bring money an men to the new state to join thos now here in the development

THE GHOST AT HAVANA.


 Gen. W. H. Bixby. chief of engi- neers in charge of the work of raising the Maine. is in all proba- bility correct in his opinion that the closes investigation will like ly fail in determining whether the vessel was destroyed by an internal or an external explosion. His reas- oning is sound The destruction of the vessel was so complete. he says, and the deterioration has been so great, as to baffle exhaustive search. Indications are that the greatest force was from the inside. says Gen. Bixby, showing that the forward magazine had exploded But he adds. very significantly. it strikes us, that 1t must forever re main a question whether the maga- zine was not exploded by the explo- sion of a torpedo on the outside. says the Globe-Democrat
 Failure to prove the origin of the explosion will not be surprising. Diseharging a torpedo under a ship heavily loaded with high explosives would certainly make a wreck so complete as to leave no trace to show where the movement con- menced. We have expected this. The resurrection is a resurrection only of the dead. and not of his tory. The history has been made without such a resurrection. This country sprang to arms against Spain on the circumstantial evi- dence in the case. That evidence seemed, to the average mind. con elusive. Spanish officials at Ha- vana had threatened that, if a United States yarship came into that port to stay, it would never leave it. When, in spite of such threats, and the protests of the Spanish government at Madrid. the Maine was sent there, she was an- chored at an isolated point in the harbor offering the best facilities for destroying her without injury lo other shipping. Afterward came the explosion, destroying a vessel which had hitherto met with as few acci- dents and casualties as any in the line. The rest is history; not buried in any sense of the word.
 Unless the raising of the Maine can show indubitable evidences of some kind destroying the strong cireumstantial evidence on which the American people acted at that time, the American people will re- serve the right of thinking and saying that they acted wisely and well. That they acted quickly and energetically the whole world knows.

our mineral and agricultural indus iries. to assist in every way in the bet.erment Cf business conditions.
 Above everything else statehood is what the people of Arizona need and desire now. not because of the right under the proposed constitu- tion to recall judges. not because of the initiative and referendum. but because of the other manifold blessings of more importance which will inure to the benefit. proserity and happiness of the new state.
 It is to be hoped that the ill-ad- vised telegrams which have been sent to Washington demanding state hood with the recall of the judiciary or no statehood will not deter the fri nds of Arizops in the senate and congress from pushing the bill
 trough on the very best terms that are possible to get.
