provision from its constitution.
But only when these facts are con-
sidered can the full significance of the
presidents action be grasped:
First, that in order to obtain state
hood the people Of Arizona by vote
Of three to one declared in favor OF
the recall.
Second. that IN order to obtain
statehood the people of Arizona must
go to the polls again and vote against
a principle Of government that they
have already voted in favor of, and
which they believe to be right.
By thus coercing the people to vote
against a thing which their best
judgment tells them TO be wise,
to withhold from that
people, unless they vote as the chief
executive dictates, rights to which
they are justly entitled under the con-
stitution. President Taft has committed
himself 10 an action which is without
precedent in the history OF the Amer
lean republic.
AS TO ARIZONA.

besides. what you eat will not ferment
and poison your breath with nauseous
odors All these symptoms resulting
from a sour out-of-order stomach and
dyspepsia are generally relieved five min
utes after taking a little Bioodine
Go to- your druggist and get a 50-cent
bottle of Bloodine now and YOU will al

Conditions in states now represented
by Republicans are much more inter-
esting. Borah of Idaho is unques-
llonably coming man, one of the
ablest of the progressives and good
lawyer, who makes an impression on
the Senate whenever he speaks and is
generally classed as a future leader
Unless the Mormon Church, for rea-
sons of its own, sees fit to oppose him,
Mr.. Borah will come back. Bourne of
Oregon is scheduled for return, as far
as any one knows, and although he has
no personal influence whatever upon
the great body of his associates in the
upper branch, his important position
as chairman of Post Offices and Post
Roads and his place on the Appro-
priations Committee will not injure
him in the estimation Of the people at
home.

This interesting serving up OF polltl-

sent his paper by the Washington cor
respondent of the Boston Transcript:
The claim Of the Democrats that
they viii control the Senate Of the
Sixty-Third Congress, which will con-
vene in 1913, would appear to be fairly
we'll Justified, judging by study OF
political conditions throughout the
country. The full Senate consists of
ninety-two members. of whom forty
seven are majority. or forty-six if
the deciding vote of the Vice President
lin the case of q tie is to be counted.
THE present Senate consists of forty
two Democrats Counting as filed the
Democratic vacancy in Colorado and
fifty Republicans, including the pro-
.gressives as such. Obviously, there
fore, the Democrats need to gain only
four votes, or five at the most. to win
a majority.
s The terms of thirty-one senators
will expire March 3. 1913. of these
thirteen are Democrats. all of whom
either will be reelected or succeeded
by Democrats. one possible exception
exists in the ease of Clarence W. Wat
son Of West Virginia. whose legisla-
|ture may be Republican. in. 1913 and
.may not. sFrom one point of view. to
be explained later, the question of con-
Itrol OF the Senate may turn on wheth-
er West Virginia sends the Democratic
