Dishonorable Methods.

The methods of Las Vegas in trying
to secure the location of the military
post are not commendable. That town
did not go before the board of army
officers, as did Albuquerque, Santa Fe
and other western cities. Las Vegas
waited until after the army board had
made it's report recommending that the
post be located at Albuquerque. Then
they went to work slandering this city
and claiming that they had had no
chance for a hearing. Santa Fe acted
more honorably. That city made hard
fight to secure the post and after ii
was defeated, cheerfully accepted the
situation. If Las Vegas had entered
the contest and won, the other towns
in the territory would have congratu-
lated that town on it's good fortune.
The action of Las Vegas may prevent
the location of a military post at any
point in the territory. This is liable to
be the result of the unnecessary con-
troversy. This is what The Citizen
has tried TO prevent. 1his is why We
have advocated closer business and
friendly relations between the several
cities of the territory. At present if
one town is about TO secure some en-
terprise that would be beneficial, all
the other towns jump in and knock
out the scheme. This has resulted in
injury to all concerned.

Deming, N. NJ, April 29.-Deming
suffered another serious loss by fire
last night, when John Testers house
was burned to the ground. There is no
reason why the whole block and Ma
honey's store, too, did not go, except
that there was no breeze. and the Ma
honey pump was started promptly
enough to prevent the fire spreading.
1t is not known how the fire started. 1t
was not total loss, being insured, but
the loss was nevertheless substantial.
Yesterday at $3.50 p. IN. the Deming
electric light system was started, and
ran for about half an hour, as a test.
The lights are fairly good but can be
improved on, which will undoubtedly
be done.

Position OF the Dominican Govern
ment is Very Critical.
PROGRESSING NICELY.

Washington, April 30.-General Mac
Arthur today gave further testimony
before the senate committee on Philip
pines. He said of the people of the
Philippines, their own unaided efforts
to accomplish self-regeneration in all
probability would prove abortive. I'm
der the tuitionary control of the United
States the body polite will be rapidly
moulded into consistent, self-support-
ing commonwealth. American with
drawal from the islands would, in ...s
opinion, result in a permanent failure
of republican institutions in the east
and fratricidal war which would con-
tinue until suppressed by some ex-
terror force. The broad generalization,
he said, is reached that the United
States must retain the archipelago as
a tuitionary annex. We must plant our
institutions there and must contend for
commercial supremacy and perhaps
combat for political supremacy and
overcome the inherent difficulties of
the situation. General Macarthur de.
MED there mas been any unusual de
struction of life in the Philippine war
Soon after the Philippine bill was
taken up, Mr.. Patterson, of Colorado
offered a resolution reciting that 10y
partisan vote the committee on Philip
pines refused to request the secretary
of war to cable Major Gardner to come
at once to Washington. The resolution
called upon the secretary to order
Gardner's immediate return. Objection
was made to the resolution but it was
discussed at some length. Mr.. Nc
Comas objected 10 the use of the wore
partisan" as a reflection on the com
mittee. Mr.. Patterson disclaimed any
intention to reflect on the committee.

IRRIGATION AND STATEHOOD.

A special dispatch to the Denver Re-
publican. from Washington, d. c., un-
der df = of April 2S, says:
The delegation of western cattlem en
here In behalf of leasing legislation to-
day called upon Commissioner Her
mann of the general land Office and
asked if he would approve plan of
legislation providing for control OF
leasing by the general land Office and
with provisions varying according to
local conditions. The commissioner
said he could not pass upon the pro-
posed legislation and could only con-
slider methods suggested when coming
to him in the form of bin by refer
ence from congress.
The delegation also appeared before
the house public lands committee and
submitted arguments in favor of the
leasing bill now pending. The delega'
ton has practically given up hope OF
securing favorable legislation at this
session of congress, especially in the
face of the ultra-adverse report made
upon the Millard-Bowersock bills by
the interior department. The delega
ton will call upon President Roosevelt
and endeavor to secure temporary sus
pension of the order compelling stock
men to take down fences.
