IT is likely that the territory OF An.
IONA will be- denied the right 10 become
a state. Through The action Of lis
people on Thursday last = constitution
was adopted which President Taft Is
known in ,lisfayor. Under Tie author
ity conferred upon him by the Law al
hitting Arizona ana New Mexico 10
Statehood. it is extremely probable
that he will reject the document 10 be
submitted to him hy Arizona, and
thereby relegate that territory 10 the
position it occupied while appealing 10
Congress for admission 10 the sister
hood Of states.
There is . provision in the proposed
constitution whereby certain features
Of what is known as the Oregon law are
carried to the extreme Of permitting
the recall OF members OF the judiciary
by the people. This is the rock upon
which the craft Of statehood for Arizona
is destined to split, according to reli-
able prediction, which is backed By
President Taft's own speeches in Ari
IONA in 1909, and by sentiments ex-
pressed since then and conveyed TO the
people OF Arizona by Delegate Cameron.

ton to the naval bill.

the suggestion and present his amend
ment when the naval bill came up for
consideration.
