Congress of Statesmen.

sembled in the capitol at Phoe-
nix Monday morning, for all had
heard the good news that the
supreme court had picked out a
de facto governor who could sign
the pay checks, and relieve the
stringency of ready cash, and no
doubt there was visions to some
Of them of the quiet game of
poker in the evening when some
real money would be jingling on
the green cloth when looking at
a hand with straight open in
the middle. To be real sure
they had governor the houses
appointed a joint committee to
wait on Gov. Campbell at once
and have him appear before
them with his speech that had
been carefully prepared several
weeks ago for this delayed oc-
casion. And not far away from
the speaker sat the chief clerk,
Sam Proctor, with the salary bill
and his fountain pen to get i'm
mediate action as soon as the
benediction had been pronounc-
ed. The state is now saved, as
Gov. Campbell realized the posi-
tion of the boys and Immediately
started work signing vouchers.
A bill should have been passed
with an emergency clause for
cases like the present and permit
the governor to use a rubber
stamp so he could work faster.
Now that the statesmen are
getting paid for their work we
will expect them to put in eight
hours a day and give the state
an equivalent for the money.
The state flag bill seems to be
tagging in interest because the
colors and design does not suit
the fastidious taste of some of
the members. A matter of this
kind should be referred exclu-
sively to the lady members of the
house, as they have some definite
ideas of the harmony OF colors
and beauty of design.
The house has passed it's bill
providing for reducing the num-
Der of blank ballots to be print
ed for general elections from
three to each registered voter to
10 for each 8 registered voters.
This is done in the interest of
economy, and to beat the printer
out of some of his wealth.
The state is evidently to be
mulcted to help out every fair
association that has a title cover
ing more than a single county.
Two bills have been introduced,
each wanting to get $4,000 out of
the state treasury. one is for the
Northern Arizona Fair at Pres
colt, and the other is for, the
Southern Arizona Fair at Tucson.
Then there is the state fair at
Phoenix that will have to be
financed. Navajo county has
been figuring on holding a coun-
ty fair at Snowflake, but it is our
advice to the promoters at this
time to call it the Northeastern
Arizona Fair, and have Mr.. Flake
introduce a bill for $4,000 to aid
in this laudable enterprise. Get
in while the getting in is good.
Another graft to get some of
the money out of Arizona to help
boost some other section was
contained in a letter from Wash
ington setting forth that a dele
cation of ladies were arranging
to have every state represented
with a float in the inaugural
parade in Washington. The let
ter very magnanimously said
they would leave the matter as
to whether the state was to have
a simple or elaborate float to the
discretion of the members when
they made their appropriation.
