SPEECH OF HON. RALPH
 H. CAMERON.
MT. CAMERON said:

Mir. Chairman: At the open ing of this debate 1 had intended to take up the subject quite ex- tensively; but since listening to the able discussions on both sides of this House do not feel at this late hour that 1 need take up the time that I had intended to give to this matter. and for that req son will be very brief in my re- marks.
 have the honor to represent what is perhaps one of the most talked-of Territories that ever asked for admission into the Union. After reading our con stitution, some people have erred so far as to intimate that the people of Arizona are not cap able of governing themselves. 1 wish to say that this is decided ly an erroneous conclusion, and l am going to show that. on the contrary, we have within the confines of the Territory of Ari- zona the highest type of citizen ship of any State within this Union. I am going to make the logic of that clear to every one of you. (Applause) Many of you are familiar with the nature of our citizenship. but for the benefit of those who have never studied the character of the genus Arizonan I will epdeavor to make character sketch of him.
 The citizenship of Arizona is made up of people from every State in the Union and from all most every nation on earth. The man in the East who has moved to Arizona and started life anew has of necessary been a man of intelligence, enterprise, and courage. He is of the material of which pioneers are made-men bold and strong in body and cour- age. The United States has devel
  oped the strongest citizenship of any nation on earth, because she has drawn the strong spirits from all the nation of the world.
 She has displayed her charms to those who were bold enough to throw off the inertia of the ages and strike anew into the unex- plored. These pioneers of Europe, the Attest of all her sons. have settled in the older com munities of this country and bred sons and daughters. Then the West again began to call, to offer her attractions to those who were again bold enough, strong enough, and intelligent enough to conquer the difficulties that lay in the way of a second migra- tion. Again were the strongest and the fittest taken west.
 When these selected. active spirits reached Arizona theyI found that the country was full of men and women just like them. One man had come from New York, one from Iowa, one from Texas. Each man had brought the ideas of the section from which he came. Each tried out ideas of farming or mining or cattle raising in the light of his earlier experience. Each | compared notes with all his fellows. Each learned tolora- ton. Each constantly broadened his horizon. The life of the West so proved itself a demonstration school of methods. a college for the pushing back of the mental horizon, nursery for the sons and daughters of the sons and grandsons of pioneers.
 So, Mir. Chairman, say to you that the people of Arizona are the results of generations of the fittest men and women that the world has to offer. In no o4bo,. oo,,o,,o,,1;tx, hoe o hot+o,.

to-day, which l claim is the high type Of citizenship on earth. The logic of the development of the Territory shows why this state ment of mine should not be mere boast, but an actual fact.
 MT. Chairman, shortly after 1 came to Congress I had the plea sure of meeting the late Senator Elkins one day. He had at one time represented the Territory of New Mexico as a Delegate in Congress. He said to me, after had talked to him for short time that a Delegate representing a Territory is simply political beggar. This I found to be very true. I have been begging ever since 1 have come to Congress for the admission of Arizona into the Union, and am here to-day, gentlemen. in that capacity, begging the Democrats and the Republicans on both sides of this House to admit Arizona into the Union. and to do it now.
 There has been some discussion on the floor of this House as to Arizona's political faith. I do not think that question should be taken up here. We are not here asking as Democrats or as Re- publicans to come into Union. We are here asking for admission for Arizona and all people in it, for no clique. nor creed, nor party.
 am here representing the people of Arizona. not the Re- publican Party, not the Demo- cratic Party, nor the Populist Party, nor any other particular Party. 1 came to Congress as their Representative, and ever since my arrival I have worked in thar capacity, and I believe that the Members of the House will bear me out in the statement that I tried faithfully in every respect to do everything 1 could for the people whom I represent. Applause I want to say, further. that I am proud to re- present Arizona, and I hope that when I retire from Congress the people will have the respect for me which I have for them, and always will have.
 MT. AUSTIN. MT. Chairman. I will say that we hope to see the gentlemen go to the Senate of the United Stated just as soon as we admit Arizona. (Applause.)
 MT. CAMERON. MT. Chair man, 1 want to say as to political faith that everybody knows I am a republican because I believe in the Republican doctrine. and I shall believe in it, I know. as long  as I live, because I feel it has made and formed one of the greatest Nations that will ever exist. It is not an issue now to be considered who will represent Arizona in Congress after she has been admitted into the Union. 1 will say GO you gentlemen on the other side of the House that if Arizona should elect, to represent her in the Halls of Congress, two Democratic Senators and one De mocratic Representative, they will be good men, but it I can help it they will never come here as Democrats. 1 will do my ut most to see that two Republican Senators and one Republican Re- presentative are sent. But, MT. | Chairman, those are questions which we will fight out at home. All we want now is 10 have the Members of this House give us an opportunity. Those who come after we are admitted will be capable and efficient men, and a credit to the new State and to the Nation.

HAY FEVER HAS
ARRIVED AGAIN
Season for Sufferers From Sneez-
ing Disease Is Here-Epi-
demic Claims Victims,

RICHMOND, VA, Special
Haa-chu-schzz! haa-chu-schzz; haa-
chu-chul ker-chuer!
1t sounds like the lazy utterances of
a rheumatic railroad freight shifting
engine, with some of the melodious
outburst of a leaky radiator when
steam has been put on suddenly with
a cranky motor helping things along.
1t is something of each of these
sounds, and yet il is different.
Don't know what il is?
Then the description is wrong. Try
the first line again.
1t is the pass word for the hay fever
brigade. AS the trolley car speeds
through the silent night the sound can
be heard. If another car is paSSing
by there will come an echo. Along
the paVements of the city streets the
same refrain is taken up. The minute
the preacher announced his text at
church il starts. 1t comes just at the
time when the announcer calls out the
train at the railroad station. The
sneeZe of the hay fevererS" is with
us again. Some sneezes. when backed
up by a "hefty chest" drown all 9TH
er noises. The annual epidemic has
come.
Some persons who are lucky enough
to escape this eXasperating ailment get
annoyed because those who have it are
so noisy. There are some people who
get cruel delight out Of the symphony.
Some believe that there is more OF
suggestion than actual contagion in
the disease. There are many around
town who say they never get the hay
fever until they see or hear some one
else sneezing. Then they sneeze at
once. just as one cape will start a
whole room yawning.
There are persons who hold to the
TeutOnic idea that a courteous "ge-
Sundheit' relieves the sufferer of his
embarrassment, but, as a matter OF
testimony from one who has sneezed
in the best German society. "gesund-
heit' is nothing but a taunt. There
is no reply that can be made TO it
Some desperate hay feVerers" who
have the muscle to back them w
make it a point to smash" the man
who Sympathizes with them in any
language. There are 5,641 regular
methods for curing the ailment in ad-
dition to the privilege Of prescribing
for yourself.

PICTURES TO ART WHAT
PRESS Is TO LITERATURE

The secretary of the National
Board of Censorship is quoted in the
Moving Picture News:
The motion pictures are doing for
dramatic art what the invention OF
the printing press did for literature
and to get the perspective OF an in
Venton Of thiS sort one must look at
il not in terms Of a business to pro-
vide recreatiC.. y hich is the purely
amusement phase. but from the
standpoint of an Invention which will
supply humanity with a means OF eX-
preston and impression along many
lines. Someone has predicted that the
time Will come when the business
done in educatiVe motion pictures
alone will bear at least the same pro-
portion TO the entire motion picture
trade as the enormous text book bus
mess now bears to the entire pub
fishing output.
The Censoring Committee insists
that there shall be no sensatiOnalism
and no representation OF crime eX-
cept with the object of conveying a
moral lesson. Crime for crimes sal
is condemned. Certain socially for
hidden themes are. of course, pre-
scrlbed, and any leaning toward over
sensationalism is discouraged, but for
the extreme demand which is some
times made-namely, that all pictures
Of crime or violence be forbidden
that such a standard would prohibit
practically all of Shakespeare and the
other classics. and even some of the
best Biblical motion pictures that
have been made, and would likewise
make impossible such historical pic
lures as the Life of Washington
The opinions of at least part of
the trade on the possibilities of the
moving picture are expressed editO-
rally by the Moving Picture News:
1t can be used for the teaching
of every subject Foreign lands can
be brought on the curtain and the
minds can be taught geography and
photography, showing the actualities
Of these sciences far better than they
can be obtained by the reading of
the various school text books; in fact,
everything can be Illustrated, and it
can be made pleasure and not
hardship for the youth of today"
OF the regulation of this business
the News says:
In Chicago one municipal depart
ment controls picture houses; in New
Gork seven, just six too many"
This town should adopt simple
method of controlling and overseeing
picture houses"

TAMARAO FTERCEST GAME,

the vicinity of his home and planta-
ton on the southeast coast OF Mindoro.
One game MindorO excels In is the
tamarao, rarest OF animals and one
which is found only in MindorO. This
fierce animal, much like an American
buffalo, is held in universal dread by

as far more formidable creature than
the maddest Of wild carabaos.
The tamaraO is seldom seen in clear
ings, because he sticks to his native
wilds. When he does come near n

tamaraO does not wait to attack, says
the Manila Times. He takes the ini-
