with nothing to give anG nothing to exchange, bat ting several hundred cool, calculating politicians.
 MT. Chandler, Record Vol. 43, pages 2421 and 2422, member of house committee on territories:
 "This result has been brought about by reason of the fact that the two great parties have declared in favor of it, and because of the further fact that the distinguished delegate from Arizona (Mr. Smith) has la bored in session and out of session for its accomplish ment."
 MT. Cole, republican mem Der of house committee on territories:
 "A strong impression pre- vails that this is not the final honor for that gentleman (Mr. Smith) but merely a stepping stone to the senate of the United States.
 MT. Sulzer, democrat: "I indulge the gratifying hope that when these two terri tories become full fledged states in the Union, our dis tinguished colleague, MT. Smith, and some other good democrat will be the senator from Arizona. "
 And where was our won derful @ "go-getter' at this time who now, in the heat of a campaign, would tell his auditors that he was the brass band, the inspira- tion, the man of the hour, the god father of Arizona, and the only man that holds the magic wand that will transform our desert lands into onion beds, install an electric meter and irrigation ditches on every ranch in the state, and bring to Ari- zona $2OO, ,0O0,000 in one year after election.
 He has Ponzi, now under arrest, backed off the boards for direct returns.

CAMERON AND STATEHOOD

ldCL CIldC OdIIlSIOI1 10 O SO- getter," as his advertising indicates-the voters must not confuse a "go-getter" with a "getter" for a Ego getter" according to all au- thorities, is simply a hearse to bring in the game that has been "got" by the real hunter.
 Cameron's onlybill lregard- ing statehood was never act ed upon by the house com mittee.
 The following facts, cop jed from the Congressional Record, and given as au- thentic and impartial, re- flutes the claims that Cani- eron. through his magnetic and commanding personality threw the congress down and choked them into sub nilsson for Arizona state hood.
 It is an insult to the in telligence of an Arizona au- dience to harrangue them with such nonsensical bunk.
 Hon. Mark Smith during his long term of service as a delegate from Arizona, in- troduced at different times eight bills providing for the statehood of Arizona. It was owing to the persistent and well directed efforts of Senator Smith as a delegate from the territory of Arizona in several congresses, state hood was finally gained.
 It was Cameron who ac- quiesced in the plan to Mex icanize Arizona and forfeit her name; and it was Mark Smith that offered the amendment that rescued the name-of Arizona from obliv- ion, and the bill which was finally passed giving Arizona statehood was introduced by Congressman Hamilton, but was based on a similar bill introduced previously by Senator Smith. Cameron in- troduced one statehood bill | on Feb. 16, 1909, based on Smiths prior bills, but this was never acted upon by the house committee, and is there yet. Hamilton was chairman of the committee on territories of the house, and Senator William Alden Smith chairman of the com mittee on territories of the senate.
 Further facts of interest at this time when the "go- getter" is so fambouantly footing his own egotistical horn to Arizonians may be gleaned from the following excerptsG from the Congress ional Record, from men who were in the thick of the fight and witnessed the valiant service rendered Arizona by Mark Smith in her hour of peril:
 Tribute of Hon. A. o. Stanley, a colleague of MT. Smith, in a speech delivered in the House Feb. 15, 1909, Record Vol. 43, page 3420, in part as follows: rI
 "But a short time ago it seemed morally certain that Arizona and New Mexico would be indissolubly bound in a union that to the people of Arizona appeared nothing less than a loathsome and abhorred miscegenation. It was then that Mark Smith
