good times again soon, in spite OF the

outbreak.

cerned, and although he did
not express himself, gave the
impression that the situation was
rapidly getting to point where
drastic measures were necessary.
He said he believed the best
course for the people of the ter
ritories would be to petition the
house to refuse to- adjourn until
the senate had voted on state
hood.
Senator Sutherland, in a talk
with your correspondent, said he
believed both territories should
be given statehood and that al
though personally he was oppos-
ed to the initiative and referen-
dun, he would subordinate his
personal views and vote to bring
them in were it not for the recall
of judiciary in the Arizona cons
titution; but that he could never
vote for such measure. He
said he believed however, that
two or three strong speeches
against the recall of the judiciary
in the senate might convince
Arizona that it was retarding
their admission and perhaps they
would voluntarily agree to elimi
nate it, or allow the Flood resolu-
tion to be amended so as to cut
this provision out before granting
statehood.

LICK 'EM"
Is DOING IT

Delegate Lick 'em in the Sen
ate" apparently has the ear of
one member of senate, as Chair
man Smith has not seen fit to re-
port the Statehood Bill, accord
ing to the action of the majority
of the committee members some
three weeks ago. Why not ap-
ply the recall provision to the
chairman and get one who will
carry out the wishes of the ma
jority of the committee? Sena-
tor Smith is showing the white
feather in not reporting the
measure, for it plainly, proves
that he is afraid to have the mat
ter come up on the floor. The
chairman may have the privilege
which he is taking int<.:this in
stance, but it certainly cannot be-
called right, for it is anything
but that. Delegate Lick 'em"
did not explain in his famous let
ter to certain of his constituents
just how he would lick: 'enl'
but he must. have had his plans
laid far in advance. This may
be craftsmanship but it smacks

WhenSenator Sutherland of Utah
announced in the senate today
that he would speak on the initia-
tive, referendum and recall, as
found in the Arizona constitution
on Tuesday next, it dev eloped
that the statehood resolution had
not been reported to the senate
yet. 49,
Senotor Bristow asked Nelson
if he knew when the resolution
would be reported and Nelson
replied that he was only one of
the minority on the committee
and knew nothing about it.
Chairman Smith was not present,
not having returned from Michi-
gan yet, and at his office it was
announced no one knew when he
would return.

majority vote instructed Chair
man Smith to report the Flood re-
solution faVorably to the senate
and he was surprised that it had
not been done That closed the
matter as far as the senate dis

is no doubt that it came as a sur

later Senator. Bristow said he
did not believe.a vote on the Flood
resolution would really be pre-
vented in the senate and he felt
sure it would pass if voted on.
He declared further that there
were interests opposing the ad-
mission of both Arizona and New
Mexico, who were not concerned
in political phases of the situation,
that is, he did not believe it was
being done for republican ,politi- |

a mouthpiece- and a basket. tt is,
attached to the handle by means,
of a pair of links, and the rake
is attached to the scoop by
two links. When the device is
supported by the handle it as
sumes an almost upright posi-
ton, the scoop resting on the
ground. On pressing the handle
forward, the small rake attached,
