ADOPT THE CONSTITUTION FIRST,
Statehood News by Grant County Nine
No State Tickets Wanted~A
Readable Letter,
To ,nc Fdllor OF tho Now MEXICAN

/ 10 the Editor OF tho New Mexican.
ALEXANDRIA MINE, Grant Co., n. M,
June Gas an advocate OF statehood for
New Mexico, desire to protest against
what appears to me 10 be the folly OF
nominating state ticket by the Republi-
can party Of the territory,
Ii the offices to be filled by election
we're all there is in statehood such a
course might be advisable, but the last
consideration should be the one OF Office
holding.
One objection to our admission arises
from well defined belief that personal
ambition and the attainment of selfish
ends are the incentives to the activity Of
many advocates OF statehood.
A state ticket made up OF such men
would only be load to carry resulting in
the defeat of the constitution and delay
of several years, perhaps, in gaining ad
mission as a state.
The admission OF New Mexico can only
be secured, under the present constltu-
ton, as Republican party measure.
Upon the success of the party at the com
ing election in the territory depends our
fate as a state.
The question for the party to consider
is-how much can we carry and succeed?
An unpopular nomination, failure to
recognize all the elements OF the party,
and the selection OF majority of the can
didates from one section of the territory
would all tend toward defeat Of the main
object.
Beside this, such an election of officers
might be only a farce and delusion, and
there would be no guarantee that they
would ever be authorized to qualify.
Further, shall we elect territorial leg
islature, as well as state legislature, to
enact laws should New Mexico be denied
admission? Shall We elect a member as
we'll as delegate to congress? 1t looks
to me as if a very ridiculous mudde
might be the result of the proposed state
ticket business.
In my opinion, if the constitutional con-
Vention, when it convenes in August, will
provide for the additional judicial district,
as now asked of congress; revise the APP
portonment upon the basis of the census
and provide for the election by the peo-
pie instead OF appointment of the supreme
court judges, then submitting the consti-
tuition for ratification by the people at the
November election there will be no doubt
OF success.
Then let the Republican party unfurl
the banner of progress and prosperity as
the champion of statehood and Repub
lican delegate will be elected. Congress
will provide for the election of state Off
GERS, senators and member of the house
and bright new silver star on the flag
will represent New Mexico. d. 7. CARR.

San Juan note: Messrs. Williams &
McHenry, of the San Juan Valley Pioneer
mills at Junction City, have closed cou-
tracts on the La Plata for 100000 pounds
of this seasons wheat, to be delivered at
the mill after harvest for $l.65 per cwt.
Telesfero Chavez has been digging for
water OIL his ranch, twenty miles west
of Las Cruces. He struck water at q
depth of thirty-two feet, and is confident
that by tapping the vein higher up he
will have heavy flow OF water.
Melton S. Otero and wife, of Peralta,
Valencia county, were in Albuquerque.
Mr.. Otero says that wheat in the valley
south of the city is looking fine, but the
country is dry and rain is needed badly.
He reports that the fruit crop will be i'm
mense this season.
Albuquerque note: Yesterday morn
ing a constable here caught S. Buffo, of
Gallup, as he was getting off freigt train.
There were about $3.50 upon his person,
and he was leaving G. w. Kuhn and Lo-
wenthal q Meyers, and perhaps other
creditors, in the lurch.
Word was brought to T. J. Thomson
Monday that his son John had been
killed near Riverview, Utah, by the Ma

roundabout way, and is not generally
credited. Mr. Thomson leaves for River

ocrat says that the stockmen in New
Mexico have never before suffered any
thing like the losses which are now being
borne on account of the extreme short.
ness of feed, which has been brought
about partly on account of over-stocked
ranges, but mainly on account of the
long continued dry weather. There has
been no rainfall for more than six months
in the southern portion of the territory,
and the consequence is that the ranges
are bare and brown and cattle are dying
by the hundreds daily.

Action Is Necessary.

Mr.. John Saltar, civil and mechanical
engineer, Chicago, paid the New MAxl.
CAN pleasant call. He is just in from
Tucson, where he says the people are
thoroughly wide awake to the import
ance OF repeating the entire Powell act
of October 2, 1883, whereby the arid
lands have been given such black eye.
There strong resolutions were adopted,
demanding of congress the repeal of this
obnoxious law, and Mr.. Saltar, who is
interested himself in western lands, thinks
all New Mexicans ought to join in petit
tioning congress lin a similar vein. II
this bill is not repealed as a whole, it
will stand as stain on the west for
years, and will go long way toward
shutting eastern capital completely out OF
this country.

Further Facts About the Cerrillos Blaze
The People There Are All Right.

There were fourteen buildings destroyed
by fire at Cerrillos night before last The
total loss will not exceed the New MEN,
CANS estimate of yesterday, 100000. The
insurance, however, is somewhat less
than the estimate, as it is only $4,000.
Capt. John Gray, whose agency carried
most of this, returned this morning from
Cerrillos. He says only the buildings of
Kelley & Board and Mr.. Hogan are left
in the block. The former suffered dam
age to the extent of $500, insured. Mr..
Hogans business house and stock was
damaged to the extent OF 5000. He was
partially insured. DR.. Joseph Richards
lost two buildings and all his household
effects. His insurance was 81 900, which
is about 30 per cent of the value Of the
property. The building occupied
by Ben Oakland was owned by w. C.
Rogers it was worth 81 200, and insured
for $500. Oakland had $500 insurance
and lost everything except one OF the
legs OF his billiard table, which, in his ex-
element he insisted on saving. w.
G. Hurts building, valued at ST.
200, was insured for $780, Rasmussen
lost all his store and household goods,
though was insured for $500. DR..
Symington owned the building occupied
by laudenslager and it was insured for
$500 in Mr.. Bergers former agency. Nc
Kenzie's loss over and above insurance
will be fully $1,000 or $4,000. Editor
Anderson's house was destroyed together
with its contents. Capt. Gray had
his mining tools destroyed and these were
valued at 5000. Mrs. Scranton and child
came very near being caught in the
flames, the stairway falling just as they
passed over it. The people feel very
kindly toward the Santa Fe railroad &C en-
pany for the good work done toward sup
plying water by freight engine and the
railroad employees. Capt. Gray says it
8 remarkable that the flames should
have been checked SO suddenly with the
crude facilities at hand. All the business
houses on the opposite side Of I'd street
were damaged, and will have to have new
Ironts. Arrangements for rebuilding
have already commenced, and meeting
Of property owners is called to agree that
only brick structures shall take the place
