Quoted to ascertain the suitableness as

The number of sugar factories has been
doubled in the past two years, and the
ability of the United States to produce
it's own sugar from this source has been
clearly demonstrated"

STATEHOOD FOR NEW MEXICO.
Bill for Statehood in Preparation Thought
That Concerted Action on Part Of Both
the Republicans and Democrats
Will Win
al to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican
Washington, Dec. 5.-Delegate Fer
gusson has arrived here and is busily
engaged in re-drafting the bill to admit
New Mexico to the sisterhood of states.
He did not get the committee on terri
tories to report the bill favorably at the
last session. Joseph and Catron both
passed the bill in the house when they
represented the territory as delegates,
and got favorable reports in the senate.
Delegate-elect Perea and Hon. T. B.
Catron are both expected to arrive here
today to lend their influence toward Sc
curing statehood. 1t is believed that
with the Democrats and Republicans
both working for statehood, it can be
secured. The friends of the movement
in the territory should write to senators
and congressman, urging it; also write
to their friends in the states to do the
same Mr.. Ferguson says that he is
entirely out of politics and will here
after give all his attention to his mining
interests in Colorado and New Mexico.

AGAINST THE TERRITORY.
Decision Of Supreme Court on Taxation of
Railroads Sustained by United States
Supreme Court.

Washington, Dec. Sin the supreme
court today, an opinion was entered by
Justice Mckenna in the case of the
Territory of New Mexico against the
United States Trust Company and re-
ceiver of the Atlantic & Pacific Rail-
way. The case involved the right of
territorial authorities to tax improve
ments of the railroad company on the
right of way without taxing the right of
way itself. The decision did not sus-
tain this contention, but affirmed the
decision of the territorial court adverse
to taxation on a concession.

' The Jail and Fire Department.

This is the last day to worry about
the matter of ground for the Jail and
fire department., as the men who have
sold the property to the city told the
reporter this morning that everything
Was now off the property. such as liens,
etc and that the only deed left to be
signed was that of Mrs. lille, and that
they had received a telegram from
her saying that she had signed the doc
ument and forwarded it to her sttor-
ney.
Now all that remains to be done is
selecting plans for the building and
that will be done at the meeting of the
council which is to be held on Thurs
day. Oct. 6th.
While some of the architects think
that the city hasn't treated them right
in the matter of plane, they ell say
that now they know exactly what the
city wants in the way of a building.
aud exactly what they want to spend
for such building, whereas before
they worked in the dark, as no one
seemed to know what was wanted of
them when they were called on to fur
nish the previous sets of plans.
The building this time is to cost
80, 600 tand not cent more, so the
council decided, still there are some
who ssy that the building ought NOT &c
be put up for less than twelve.

as to the success of the

has about sixty names on the list, of
those who agree to take from one to
live shares in the enterprise at ten dol
lars each. After few more names
are secured public meeting will be
called and an opportunity given to all
who may be interested in the plan to
take an active part in furthering it.
An electric road is bound to come soon
er or later. and it looks as II, with
three or four concerns waiting to come
into the field, a good popular move
