Denies Real Favoritism,

The witness felt certain that the Sun
nyside mines had suffered more than
others from lack Of cnrs, in spite OF the
alleged preference. Any real preference
was because OF the effort made by the
company TO furnish the smelters and other
favoring OF the Castle Gate mines was
because instructions had been given that
when there was a shortage OF cars the
Castle Gate mine was TO be supplied be-
fore other mines of the same company
the Utah Fuel company, which made an
effort TO keep the Castle Gate mine open
when the others were compelled to close.

showed how the apportionment was made
according TO commercial capacity which
he said was obtained by daily reports OF

because Of the changes in production
and because OF the starting to ship Of
the Mud Creek or Utah mine. He be-
equitable, but said in reply to Mr. Burch-

A FINE EDITION

The Arizona Statewide Edition of
the Arizona Republican, published
Monday, November 9th, is a re-
markably fine edition showing Ari-
zona's present prosperity and the
wonderful resources that will bring
greater wealth to her people.
The edition consists of Ga pages
|of descriptive matter relating to
farming, mining, cattle raising and
other industries of each of the four
teen counties in the new State.
Each section is handsomely illus
trated with half-tone cuts. Two
pages are devoted to Graham county,
with illustrations and descriptive
matter of the agricultural possibili-
ties of the county, which it describes
as a paradise"
The Republicans Statewide, Edi-
ton is the best issue ever published
by an Arizona paper and shows the
rapid stride that has been made in
the making of newspaper in the
Southwest, and will undoubtedly
draw attention from all parts of the
country to the new State.

NEW MExIcO'S ELECTION

The result of the election in New
Mexico must have been great sur
prise to President Taft and the rest
of the republican machine at the
national capital, who believed that
they had cinch in holding New
Mexico as a republican State.
When we remember how quickly
President Taft approved the unpro-
gressive constitution of New Mexico
and how bitterly he assailed the
progressive constitution of Arizona
and finally humiliated US by insist
ing that we should eliminate the re-
call Of the judiciary in order to secure
Statehood, we cannot help feeling
elated over the downfall Of the
pompous William /.
We note with pleasure, also, that
the people of New Mexico, carried
the amendment giving them the
right. instead of the corporations.
to amend their constitution, right
that President Taft, in approving
the constitution. refused to recog-
nize.
Grow is not as good eating as
turkey, and when you get it dished
up before you continuously. as has
been the fate of President Taft of
late. it becomes nauseous.
