LEGISLATIVE GOSSIP.
PART OF TEXAS WANTED.

Hon. w. H. H. Llewellyn has intro
duced a house joint memorial to the
president and congress of the United
States requesting that the portions of
the state of Texas lying west of IA line
commencing at the southeast corner of
the territory and following thence due
south along the Goth degree of longitude
to a point where the same intersects the
Rio Grande, be annexed to the territory
of New Mexico. The memorial repre-
sents that the interests in mining. irri-
cation, sheep raising and other vital
industries of the people of that section
of the state of Texas, are Identical with
the interests of the people of New
Mexico, and states that a majority of
the people in that section of Texas are
favorably inclined to carrying out the
proposition. 1t is shown that the new
order, as proposed, will mean the for
nation of a great state, the interests of
whose people have been as one since a
period antedating the landing of the
Pilgrim fathers at Plymouth Rock. 1t
is asked that the president of the United
States, governor of New Mexico and
governor of Texas appoint a commission
of three congressman, three senators,
100 citizens of New Mexico and 100 citi-
zens of Texas, which commission shall
meet in the city of Deming July 4, 1899,
and be empowered to hold adjourned
meetings in the City of Ell Paso, Tex,
for the purpose of considering and ar
ranging a basis upon which the cession
of territory from the state of Texas can
be accomplished.

A VETERANS OPINION.
Captain John R. Hughes, of the Texas
Rangers, Thinks Rangers in New Mex
leo Would Be Just the Thing.

Captain John R. Hughes, of Troop d,
Texas Rangers, is much pleased with
the prospect of a troop being organized
in New Mexico, and says "thc territory
should have had such an organization
long ago. 1t is to the credit of any state
or territory to employ an organized body
of men to hunt down desperadoes and
fugitives from justice and bring them
before the courts where they can be
given their just deserts. If a troop of
New Mexican rangers is organized, and
George Scarborough is placed in com
mand. it will not be two weeks before
| will have two men whom | have been
wanting for some time, and the country
will be made too warm for many of the
outlaw gentry. 1t will be a great help
to Arizona and Texas. AS it is, if a fugi-
tive in Texas can get over the New Mex
leo border, he is perfectly safe, as our
men must quit at the line, while the
outlaws do not. Now, If there was a
troop of New Mexico rangers, we could
work in concert with them and rid the
southwest of some very tough characters.
Yes, by all means, let New Mexico have
territorial rangers, and George ScarbOr-
ough is the man to place in command of
them"
Captain Hughes is one of the most
experienced criminal hunters in the
southwest, and has been the means of
cleaning west Texas out of scores of
very tough gentlemen. When Hughes
is after a gang, the outfit knows that it
is time to leave the country, and they
do not stand upon any order Of going,
but go at once.

SPLENDID Dramatic Vocalist.

"Cavalleria Rusticana" is an opera In
the highest degree dramatic and its
singing last night by the members of tho
Andrews Opera Company was exceeding
ly well done. There is only one act, and
while there is a large number on the
stage, all the principal singing really
lies with three. Miss Nellie Andrews as
'sSantuzza" was the central figure and
gave q splendid exhibition of her power
as a dramatic vocalist. She carried her
part perfectly and gave a good represent
tation of the wronged woman. Jay c.
Taylor, as the faithless lover, ''Turridu,"
appeared at his best, and Arthur SeatOn
took the part Of Alto most creditably.
Following the grand opera came "Pina-
fore" and the contrast between the tso
was decidedly marked. The old favorite
of the light operas was well given and
pleased the immense audience greatly.
The production OF two operas in one
evening made 1t late when the curtain
dropped for the last time, but every
minute of the evening was pleasantly
flled.-The Daily News, Aberdeen, s.
