" so Say All OF U.s."

To our way of thinking Mr.. Richard
H. Edmonds the editor of the Manu-
facturers Record, has been a great
benefactor to the people of the South.
He has done great work in taking
their mind off their infirmities, inform
ing them of their bound!ess richness
and pointing their way toward happi-
ness and prosperity. He has broken
down the memories and the passions of
a war and has stirred the people of the
southland into An activity that has
made them consequential in the bust
ness activities of the nation. What
more could any man have done?
West Virginia may take unto itself a
special pride in this issue of the Manu-
facturers' Record. First, because no
southern state makes a better indus
trial showing and second-God owe
them-two men respected and loved
where they are known, have bad an
identity with this magnificent issue.
They are Mr.. Albert Phenis aud Mr..
George Byrne. The latter is a we'll
known newspaper man of West Vir-
ginia, whose writings haye graced many
familiar column. Mr. Phenis has
lived in the state at times, and counts
his friends by the number Of his ac-
quaintances. Those of US who know
him, love him as a man of great worth
and incompatible comradeship. Te-
gether they impart to their paper a
local favor that makes it a welcome
visitor to many West Virginia Office
and home. Tribune.

LEGISLATURE |S IN FAVOR IF LAND
 BILL
SENATE MEASURE NO. 33 IN COMMITTEE OF THE
 WHOLE.
Supporters and Antagonists Equally
 Insistent in Their Stand.

l PHOENIX, March 13.-With Rob- erts Senate Bill No. B under consid- eration, the state senate in committee of the whole yesterday afternoon took on the appearance of a regular scrap heap, for every senator was on the qui vive and every portion of the bill found it's packer and it's antagonist. Senator J. Lorenzo Hubbell was in the chair and managed to keep the land opponents away from one anoth- | CT.
 Senate Bill No. B provides for the maintenance of a state land com mission, and defines and describes the duties of the commission. The measure also provides for the ap- pointment in each county of a land leasing board to be constituted of the county treasurer, the county re- corder and the county assessor, and also provides for the land leasing boards powers.
 The powers of this body are broad, too broad, according to cer- tain members of the upper house, notably Senators Wood and Davis of Maricopa, who bitterly opposed the bill in committee. It provides that the land-leasing board shall at once prepare leases for each piece of az ricultural and leasing land, which shall be allotted on five-year con- tracts to individuals in parcels of not more than 160 acres for the az ricultural lands and not more than GAO for the grazing lands.
 The modus operandi of the leas- ing is that notice of land to be leas- ed shall appear in at least one paper in a county, once a week for five consecutive weeks. According to the measure, the appraisement of the land and all of the clerical work connected with the land shall be done by the fourteen land leasing boards in the state.
 The fight. over the bill was one of the fiercest that has occurred over any measure in the history of this legislature. The senate mem bers from Maricopa were in the van guard of the fight every moment The Maricopa members wish to see inau- gurated a land policy that will al- low the public schools of the state to reap home benefit from the lands al once. These gentlemen wish to see that land thrown open, especial ly, which is susceptible to reclama- tion.

BELIEVES COUNTRY MIGHT
 PURCHASE NORTHERN STATES

That in case of intervention, the United States might purchase the northern Mexican states, was the suggestion made by Frank l.. Culiu, of Tucson. He believes that this would obviate a long-drawn out occu- pancy of the country by the American troops.
 "The United States in such an event might pay Mexico sufficient millions to reduce it's debts to foreign countries. The reduction of the na- tional debt, would of course, be de- manded by foreign nations, before the cession of territory would be al lowed
 This country could afford to pay a hundred millions for the northern states. This would give Arizona e seaport. ''
 MT. Culin believes that the exist ing legal bar to the acquisition of Mexico's territory which was held to invalidate the proposed purchase of the Port Lobos strip, might be re- moved by congressional action.

 QUAIL CASE
Officers of State and County Named in Affidavit to Supreme Court
 BulIard Replies Sharply.

PHOENIX, March Exchanging thai
 famous Wood Allen quail case, be tween the officers of the state and county and the defendant, Attorney
 Struckmeyer this morning appeared in the state supreme court and pre- sented an affidavit to the court setting out certain assertions as being facts to the best of his knowledge and be- 1 lief. In the affidavit the attorney included an interview which appeared in one of the Phoenix papers, with H, A. Davis, an emp1oye of the State Press.
 This sensation was sprung this morning when the Wood Allen case, now before the supreme court of the state, was about to be set for hearing The affidavit of the attorney was strong and to the point and his argu- ment was that the states highest trib tion in the matter. The court allow ed the attorney to file his affidavit, but set the case for the 22nd of the month and at that time will decide the questions before the court, and if it is to be heard, will go forward and hear the arguments.
 When Attorney Struckmeyer pre- sented his affidavit to the court, Attorney George Purdy Bullard arose and denied that there had been any collision between himself and Wood Allen. In another matter Chief general about a certain resolution which had been passed by the state senate asking the attorney general to urge the states court of last re sort to take jurisdiction in the case before it and decide the matter as soon as possible, in order to throw some light upon legislation which is now pending before the legislature.
 Attorney General Bullard imme- diately drew forth the resolution in question, which the senate had passed and presented it to the court It was the evident intention of the legislature, according to the reso- lution, to get the decision of the supreme court upon the case before it as soon as possible in order that the path of legislation might be cleraed during this session. Attorney Kent, for the Santa Fe railroad, and attorney Cox, for the Southern Pacific, appeared before the court and asked permission to submit briefs upon the case before the court. The permission was granted by the court in each case.

PARTY SUCCESSES
 PREDICTION 0E LING

Predicting united democracy in the United States in every way, forecasting brilliant administration during the present democratic re- gime, and last, but not least, adding a touch for Arizona, his home, Reese NJ. Ling, democratic national com mitteeman, gave an interview to the Washington Post of March 4th:
 The many friends of the national committeeman in the state of Arizo- na know well how the gentleman fairs pertaining to the upbuilding of the state, but in Washington the gentleman from Arizona stated his position so clearly and so compre- hensively that his remarks are here reprinted:
 tween the democratic party and the republican party remarked Reese M Ling, democratic national con- mitteeman of Arizona, at the Will lard. The democratic party, in the first place, is the original progress
  ment that disrupted the republican organization can never split the democracy. There are progressives ' in the democratic party. I am a pro- gressive. But they are not pro- gressive to the extent that they would override the constitution
 Tt is gratifying to every democrat iii Washington today that the in coming administration will be straight democratic administration. Gov. Marshall, who is to be inaugu- rated vice--president of the United States, is one of the most progress i've democrats in this country, yet he is safe and sound. We know him in Arizona, where he has been spending part of his winters for the last four years Gov Marshall is go- ing to be one of the great figures in the next four years of democratic control.
 Tt has been said by our repub- lican friends that the democracy is steering toward the rocks. I think the wish is father to the thought. know that in Arizona the democracy was never so strongly intrenched as it is today.
 Since Arizona was admitted to the union, there has been a very re- markable advancement in the state added MT. Ling. Before statehood Arizona was handicapped, but now we are getting a big influx of people and our resources, which are unsur are being developed It will be put [ few years until Arizona is one of the richest and most prosperous states in the vest

Des Moines little grating
scheme has been nipped in the
bud. The last legislature pas
sed a law compelling the rail-
roads to grant a rate of a fair
and third to all fairs having a
paid admission of $4,000 or over
OF course the State Fair is the
only institution in the state
having such an attendance so
that they really said that the
railroads should grant the rate
to the fair but the other little
joker was that anyone desiring
to go to that city could do so at
the same rate. The railroad
commissioners rules that the
law was q just one but the Fed
eral court rules that it was class
regulation and threw the whole
thing out. Des Moines is
known as the worst grating
town in the state, operating on
the theory that the state capt.
tol was placed there solely for
their convenience and they
certainly use it to good advan-
tage. While we wish the State
Fair could have gotten the rate
we are glad Des Moines got
turned down.
