when the constitution is under consideration by the President.
 THE OASIS believes that the President will disapprove because of the recall of the judiciary and some other objectionable provisions in the proposed constitution. For which reason this paper believes the people of Arizona should reject the present document and call the constitutional convention together again and modify the instrument. But 1t believes also that the people will not reject the proposed instru- ment; and there is not much sense in endeavoring to persuade them to do so. As they say in Mexico: Que lease?

EngIishman Sees his First Baseball
 Game.
Que lease ?

A baseball fan of many years standing recently returned from a trip to Europe, and has ever since been expressing his joy at being where he can once again discuss the national pastime.
 The only person he found abroad who had ever seen big-league con- test was a little cockney who had once visited the United States in the capacity of groom. According to the fan, the man described what he had seen as follows:
 "Beggin' your pardon, sir, hit seemed to me most hextraordin- ary gime.
 "There was a flat field big enough for an 'orse show hand hin front they lad dug hup the turf hin four straight lines which they lad marked with little cushions hat the corners.

PROVISIONS OF THE ENABLING ACT.

made the assertion that snoulu Che proposed constitution for Arizona receive approval by the people and % to the President, disapproval by the Chief Executive will end all hope for statehood under the pres ent enabling act, and Arizona will have to await the slow movement of Congress in passing another, which may take number of years. The desire to make very plain the case. and a number of inquiries received recently prompts presenta- tion here of the provision in the enabling act, governing the pro- cedure of admission:
 osec. 22. That when said constitution and such provisions thereof as have been separately submitted shall have been duly ratified by the people of Ari- zona. AS aforesaid, certified copy of the same shall be submitted to the Presi- dent of the United States and to Con- gress for approval, together with the statement of the votes cast thereon and upon any provisions thereof which were separately submitted to and voted upon by the people. And if Congress and the President approve said constitution and the said separate provisions thereof, if any, or if the President approves the same and Congress fails to disapprove the same during the next regular session thereof, then and in that event the President shall certify said facts to the Governor of Arizona, who shall, within thirty days after the receipt of said notification from the President of the United States, issue his proclamation for the election of the state and county officers, the members of the state legis- lature, and all others provided for in said constitution, all as hereafter pro- vided; said election to take place not earlier than sixty days nor later than ninety days after said proclamation by the Governor of Arizona.
 "Sec. 23. That said constitutional convention shall, by ordinance, provide that in case of the ratification Of said constitution by the people, and in case the President of the United States and Congress approve the same, or in case the President approves the same and Congress fails to act in its next regular sesiion, all as hereinbefore provided, an election shall be held at the time named in the proclamation of the Governor of Arizona"
 By careful reading of the fore- going it will be seen that Congress cannot overrule the President should he disapprove the constitu- tion; but it may overrule him If he transmits the instrument to Con. gress with his approval. That con tingency is hardly probable. Should the President approve it is hardly probable that Congress will disapprove-i. 6. that both House and Senate would adopt resolutions of disapproval. If they did, that would override the Presidents approval. But should resolution of disapproval pass either branch of Congress and by parliamentary tactics vote upon a resolution of disapproval could be prevented until the regular session of Con gress had adjourned, then the President would have to certify the facts to the Governor of Arizona and the final steps in acquisition of statehood would follow as a necessary consequence.
