Arizona Adopts Constitution.
(EL PASo TIMES. ]

The people of Arizona have adopted their proposed state constitution by an overwhelming vote, and this IS notice to the world that Arizona peo- pie are satisfied with its provisions, and are content to pass the whole matter up to the president and con- gress.-
 The Times believes thatin the final determination of the matter, the provisions of the constitutions were lost sight of in the absorbing eager ness for statehood. When a people have been clamorous for an object so long as the people of Arizona have been for statehood, they are quite liable to lose sight of all else in the possible attainment of their hearts desire.
 It is in the years to come that the mistake of these good people will come home to them, in the event the constitution they have adopted runs the gauntlet at the national capital. When they are brought face to face with the pernicious influence of the recall as applied to their judiciary they will be reminded of the fact that they havesown to the whirlwind.
 The Times, as true and tried friend of the people of Arizona, has tried to proSeCt them 1rou the COh- sequences of their own folly, for from an unbiased and unprejudiced stand point, the Times has been able to foresee the impending storm of chaos and confusion that threatens the | future of the new state. But the Times even yet indulges in the hope that these things may in some manner be averted and that nothing but peace, prosperity and happiness may come to the good people who are working so hard, so patiently anc | consistently to carve new state from what was so long regarded as desert They richly deserve all the gooC things that can possibly come theil way.
 In the meantime, the constitution and the question of statehood fo | Arizona has been passed up to Wash ington, and the result is awaited witl
 much interest and more or less ap prehension.
The copper era., 1911-02-17

such tactics were adopted by mon who denounced you from the camp aign stumps as fools, mob unhtted for the duties of governing yourselves. They might have been expected to make the further blunder of believing their own words, especially as they were driven on in their nefarious attempt to throttle Arizona and mur- der the liberties of the budding state by clique which has ruled Arizona for so long.
 The people have shown the right to rule by yesterdays ballots. Never again will that right be questioned by sane men, however eager to mis- lead and exploit and crush you they may be.

To The People Of Arizona
(Arizona Gazette)

The Arizona Gazette extends con- graduation to you over the victory you have won. In the face of the cowardly attacks upon your manhood in the face of villification of you by the subsidized corporation organs throughout the territory, you have remained steadfast to the dictates of true Ameri canism.
 You have torn the mask from every department of Special Interest in Arizona, Interests which have here tofore been more ar less known to all the people.
 In an editorial which circulated throughout the territory during the campaign for delegates; in other editorials which circulated during the sittings of the convention, and in yet others which have since been publish ed from time to time. you have been alluded to as constituting "a group of fools," ''children," i" "a mob" "unfit to govern yourselves" :" unfit to be intrusted" with the power which God gave you and which Special Interest has taken away from you in the past, and which it fought hard to hold.
 But it remained for the Arizona Republican, posing as a newspaper published in the interests of the peo- pie, to heap upon you the final insult | in its editorial columns this morning.
 Therein your stupidity is accused of having given to Jonathan Bourne, Jr; of Oregon, president of the National Repu ublican Progressive League, the honor of a victory.
 l Nnt word nttnrn6 thnrai0 con corning the fight which, in youl high intelligence, you made against the false statements which have appeared in that and and other cor poration papers throughout the terri
 tory since last September, when you
 first dared lift your voice in demand
 for the power to govern yourselves.
 Some eighty per cent of you voted
 yesterday to retain that pnwer, des
 bite the Cassandra-like warnings that
 you would doom yourselves for al
 time. You asserted your manhood in no uncertain terms, and you have
 served notice upon every from O Special interest in the confines of tht
 territory the people will have justice Now to the future: Statehood i: now an assured fact. Already tn corporation press in each issue con tradicts itself, in one column seeing nothing but ruin, and in anothe grasping for some argument whicl will save them from being utterl, , confounded when, within a few
 months, Arizona holds her first state
 election.
 The victory belongs to no one per son, save only to the people of Ariz Ona.
 Jack o'Lanterns of fraud and decep tion have been lighted and waved il vain. Man after mar, hitherto higt in the estimation of the people, ha gone to Washington, come home anC . uttered insinuatiOns that the presi dent of the United States has saiC that he would not approve the pro posed Constitution of Arizona. No
 one of these men said that the presi
 dent made the statement. He was for ced by fear of official punishmen
 from Washington to confine his state , ment to such words as would acqui . him of quoting the president, and, a , the came time, make you believe h l was saying what the president ha'
 told him to say.
 It is not to be wondered at tha
