Hon. N. G. Blanchard.

To the Hon. W. A. Stroud, Sena-.
ator, and to the Hon. w. B. Boggs,
representative in the State Legis-
latare Of Louisiana: We, the un-
aersigned citizens of Bossier parish.
respectfully announce our fealty to
the candidacy of our time-honored
friend and fellow-citizen, Hon. New
ton G. Blanchard, to fill the unex-
kpired term of Hon. E. ID. White in
the United States Senate. Having
critically reviewed his long course
in Congress, as the representative
of the Fourth Congressional District,
we are prepared to say that We find
nothing to condemn, but OH the con-
trary much to approve and applaud.
We believe that it would be high
ly detrimental to the interest of
North Louisiana, and to the State
at large, to retire at this critical
juncture,. such a profound patriot
and statesman as Mr.. Blanchard.
We point with pride to, his brill
liant course in Congsess, and boldly
proclaim it second to none ever made
in that body by Louisiana states.
man, and especially do We point to
the fact that he has always acted
directly 10 line with the wishes of
his people. We believe that it is
exceedingly gratifying to every
Louisiana farmer to note his strong
advocacy of the Anti-Option Bill,
the Free Coinage of Silver, the Re
peal of the Ten Per Cent Tay on
States Banks, the Income Tax, and
especially the Wilson tariff bill and
the Seignorage bill. Moreover, we
believe that his action in regard to
the sugar interest of the State has
done much to bring about recon
ciliation between the people of North
and South Louisiana.
Now, we therefore respectfully
petition our Senators and Represen-
tative in General Assembly, soon to
convene in Baton Rouge, to cast
their votes for Mr.. Blanchard to fill
the position in the United States

ON STATEHOOD.

1t is strange alliance which now
exists between the newspapers of Okla
homa and those of New York on line of
policy directed toward the postponement
of statehood, and which can have no other
territory. 1t is not necessary to argue
any question as to the effect of insisting
upon incorporation of the Indian tribes
in the state which it is proposed to erect.
Its only possible effect could be one of
delay, and that is its only intended effect
by those who are using it to defeat the
growth of the new southwest in political
power and Importance. New Workers
who insist that Oklahoma shall not be-
come state without including the In
dians insist also.that Arizona and New
Mexico shall not be admitted because In
dams are included in their population.
These influences are the most active in
The Republics proposed
omnibus bill admitting all of the four
territories now applying for admission
tribes.
The question is not one of partisan SO
much as it is one of sectional politics.
The eastern press OF both parties does
not denounce the admission of what it
terms "sage brush states" because they
might be expected to become the polit-
ical chattels of any party. The experience
of the Republicans with the new states of
the northwest has put an end to that
Eastern opponents of new
states in the southwest place the sole
ground of their opposition in the fact
that the new states might be expected to
ego after strange gods,'' just as the new
states of the northwest have done. The
Boston Transcript admits that New Mex
loo is as apt to be Republican as Demo-
cratic, but opposes its admission because
it might always be expected to be south
western in its sympathies and political
affiliations.

STATESMEN ON DECK.

An extraordinary piece of legislative
manipulation was that which occurred in
the lower house of congress last evening.
On January II the house, all aglow under
the brilliant oratory of Congressman
Tom. johnson, who represents the wool
growers of Ohio, voted that the free wool
schedule in the Wilson tariff bill should
become effective on the same date that
the Wilson bill became law. The vote
was close, 112 to 1O2, but the proposition
carried. Now, however, this is changed,
and yesterday the house by q vote of POS
to Al decided that free wool should not
take effect until August next.
It will not take the shrewd observer
very long to find the milk in this cocoa
nut. New England demanded this con-
cession from the west in return for voting
aye on the income tax proposition. New
England recognizes that the income tax
will help the west immensely, ard cut
into the pockets of her tariff barons, and
that section is equally cognizant of the
fact that the duty on wool cuts into the
pockets of western sheep raisers, benefit
ing chiefly the New England manufac-
turers, hence this exchange of courtesies.
And it is all right, too, for what the west
ern sheep men may lose by the extension
of time for free wool to become effective
will more than offset in the gain that will
come to them by reason of the passage
of the income tax proposition. On the
whole, it may BIO said that Chairman Will
son and his colleagues put up as clever
piece of legislative diplomacy yesterday
as has ever occurred on the floor of con-
press

The New MEXICAN may say for the
benefit of its neighbor, the Albuquerque
Times, that it has no sort of sympathy
with the bull fighting exhibitions now
occurring at Albuquerque. No matter
what precautions are taken to tone them
down and do away with their more brutal
features, such entertainments" appeal
only to the lower instincts of man and
come SO near bringing New Mexico down
to the level of barbaric nations that the
moral effect both at home and abroad is
thoroughly bad.

is menace and disgrace. In this case,
the court, after the most exhaustive in
quiry that has, perhaps, ever been made
IN the criminal annals of the west, had
the courage, in reviewing the case, to
speak its mind frankly and plainly, and
acted accordingly. Thus Judge Seeds
places himself on record as fearless,
honorable and just man, having at heart
the good of New Mexico and all its peo-
pie who abide by the laws and ask that
Justice alone shall prevail.

A JUST JUDGE.

Judge Seeds was unquestionably right
in holding the men accused of conspiring
together and assassinating ex-Sheriff
Chavez, and committing them to jail
without bail. 1t is too often the case in
New Mexico, as elsewhere, that parties
under suspicion of having committed the
gravest of crimes are shiftlessly dealt
with and permitted to 60 free on bail
when their very presence in community

IT is impossible to avoid the conclu-
sion that Senator HILL of New York, is a
politician rather than broadminded
statesman. His opposition to the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Hornblower might have
been pardoned, but the personal malice
that clearly inspires his present opposi-
tion to the nomination of Wheeler II.
Peckham is inexcusable.

There is great deal of politics in the
territorial question, but it is sectional

but the Oklahomans.-St. Lous Repub-

to follow. Statehood will bring pros
