SCHOLARSHIP FOR
 ARIzOAA UNIVERSITY
Suggestion Made That County Funds Be Raised to De-
 fray Expenses

In order to gain an increased at tendance at the University of Ari- zona and to make it the object Of interest which it should be to ev- cry county in the commonwealth. Kirke T. Moore makes a suggestion which Is an excellent one, even if it has been made before and no. acted upon by the counties. t can be brought before them again and 1t may be expected that one after another will take the matter up un- dl all have adopted the idea.
 MT Moore suggests that each county in Arizona shall have a scholarship fund for its high schools that will defray the expenses of some deserving and ambitious stu dent at the university, and sug- gests s200 as the amount of the fund. As the tuition is free and the expenses are small, such sum would go a long way toward help ing the student Should each coun- ty have but one such scholarship, it would mean the education of four teen young men or women at the university each four years.
 Going a little further. it appears that an annual prize Of a scholar ship might be offered in each coun- ty. This would at the end of four years mean an appropriation of $500 each year. but it would also mean 56 students all enjoying and gaining full benefits from such branch of university education as he or she might desire from the fourteen counties of Arizona
 stImuius to Education.
 Prizes have always been found a stimulant to the students work. The ambitious one is encouraged ss is possible in no other way by the making of such a prize a scholar ship that is well worth the trying for. It is safe to say that if such plan were adopted by tlro c6un- ties of Arizona the scholarship in the high schools would be mater ially elevated. The boy or girl who realizes that his or her education must end at the high school may or the other hand be governed by the feeling that he or she must get all possible in that school. but there are many others who are discour- aged in their ambitions by such conditions To such the knowledge that added effort might produce the desired college course would be a great incentive.
 The suggestion of MT. Moore is along lines which 1t may prove profitable for the university to fol-

THE STATEHOOD
VETO.

VETO.
 President Taft has vetoed the statehood resolution. just as it had been predicted he would do from the day that the stubborn and radi- cal majority placed the judiciary re- call in the constitution against the advice of men who had opportunity to learn the position of the presi- dent on this objectionable feature. When the convention delegates sought for the opinion in Washing ton regarding the recall of judges. they received word from senstors and congressman advising that such dangerous features be left out of the constitution because of their danger to admission.
 The press of the territory was al- most unanimous in this advice, but the majority of the convention, lis tening to the applause of the thoughtess. and believing that a firm stand for their desires would float them into office in the new state. assumed the high and mighty position that the president Of the United States WOULD NOT DARE to turn down any provision of the constitution. blindly put the head of the territory up against a stone wall and as a result, statehood now is in the most serious danger and fl attained within the next two years it must come without the re- call of the judiciary
 Now, statehood has been halted by those who were willing to take the most desperate chance rather than to endanger what they con ceived to be a stand that would benefit themselves individually; by those who were willing 10 sacri. fee the great industrial benefits which statehood would bring to Ari- zona rather than to lose the oppor- tunity to shout for the recall and hope for political preferment as a result.
 Now, statehood is just where George W. F. Hunt, Winsor. Par. sons, Feney and Cunniff have put it. There is talk of a new bill being introduced during the present ses- siom. If there is such a bill il most meet almost unanimous favor Of every member of the senate to get through, and we know that ttcre are some old and bitter eIe Tlies of statehood in the senate.
 When the Nelson amendment was before the senate under an agree rent for vote on August z friends of statehood who had been heh.iag fer this advantage for Ari zoua for quarter Of a century. tired to have that amendment eeeep cd be-adse they believed it to be 'nt only hope Of success at this session hut they were bitterly opposed b, th"se ,gho continued to shout tl.at p-csiaent Taft WOULD NOT DARE disapprove the Flood resolution Thfi was the position of all the office seekers. and as the oficeseekeri compose a considerable portion O the population Of Arizona at this time they succeeded in making Arizona'l friends in congress believe that on people had rather remain as a ter Titory than consent to the elimi7a ton of the recall from the eonsti tuition. which, qf course, was no true.

The Bryan states would give t following Democratic vote:

In the new eiecorai college New York with six additional votes. g total of 42, viii continue to hold the balance of power between the lead ing parties in campaigns less hope lessly one-sided than the last. With New Ycrk's vote either side may easily figure out majority.
 The solid South has been broken since 1904. Having twice given her oIectoriaI vote to republican presi- dcntial candidates, Missouri no lon ger can be placed in the southern column. Under the reapportionmel including Kentucky, which has shift ed in state elections, and Maryland which divided her vote in 1908. tho solid south has l55 votes. To win the next democratic candidate mus, have in addition to the south II votes. Carrying New York. the dem ocrats could win with Ohio, New Jersey. Indiana and Missouri. a to- tai Of 112. Illinois could be sub tuted for Ohio. In place of either of these strong republican states the democrats could elect with Cali fornia, Colorado and West Virginia or California and Nebraska and Montana. or either Of the Dakotas Counting New Mexico and Arizona democratic, with three votes each, 8 successful combination could Dc named with New York.
