Report is Circulated That Republican Leaders Are Asking Voters to Work for the Defeat of State hood.
OF COURSE IT'S
 SILLY UNTRUTH
And Here's the Proof-Re- publicans and Others Are Hereby Earnestly Asked to Vote Out Judicial Re call.

] It has been taken absolutely for | granted that in the coming election
 the voters of Arizona-democrats and republicans alike-would cast their call. since that is a necessary condi- , tion of statehood. In truth. So cer- | tain has everybody been of that fact | and SD certain is everybody of it at i this moment. that the matter has received almost no attention from the day the president signed the state hood bill until this time
 But now the wiseacres of democ- racy have seen another chance for and they are spreading the report that the republicans are going to vote for the retention of the judiciary recall
 in order that statehood may be de feated They say the word has been
 quietly passed around among repub-
 licans" that they are to vote to keep
 the judiciary recall in the constitu- tion and thus prevent statehood
 Probably no more malicious canard
 has been circulated by any aggrega-
 tiOn of political tricksters. The state
 inert is absolutely false in thought and expression. No such instructions
 were ever passed around. quietly or otherwise. such a move is not con templated. never was contemplated. and never will be contemplated
 The tricksters of democracy fail to comprehend that statehood is as ardently desired by republicans as by the men of any other party They seem to think that statehood is for democrats and not for all the people
 And SD far as from passing around any word to the contrary. The Repub- lican here and now advises all it's readers who are electors-republicans democrats and socialists-to vote at the coming election for the elimina- tion of the judiciary recall
 The mind that k vile sees villainy in all things The tricksters of demOc- racy are SO accustomed to political that they cannot compre- bend honesty in others This paper 1 in common with all the republican | press of the territory and in common ! with all republicans of the territory. ! has taken the republican platform at | it's face value and has made its fight | for the principles contained in that | platform. So. when the republican !. platform declared for the elimination ! Df the judiciary recall. all republicans | accepted that declaration in good | faith And they have acted in good | faith with reference tO the matter every minute of the time.
 At the coming election ballots for voting on the recall proposition will l be- given the voters These ballots will he marked For Constitutional and Against Constitu- Ional Amendment" To insure state hood it will be necessary to vote for he constitutional amendment
 Every elector who is reader of The Republican is asked to vote that way.

TROUBLE IS BREWING.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-The ar rival today of Senator Gallinger. the nominee of the republican regulars for the office of president pro tenn pore of the senate. was the signal for several informal conferences among senators regarding that office. No formal decision was reached. but there was d sufficient exchange of views to justify the statement that there will be no change of nominees at present. The insurgents manifest a determination to hold on to their nominee. Senator Clapp. and the democrats tO continue their support of Senator Bacon. The prospect. therefore. is that Vice President Sher- man win be called upon to carry the entire burden of presiding over the senate for the immediate future, if not indefinitely
