We have observed much of a eulo-
CYSTIC character in some of our eastern
contemporaries as to the merits of the
report of the majority of the senate
committee on territories on the sub
ject of statehood for Arizona, New
Mexico and Arizona. On the other
hand, the people of Arizona and New
Mexico protest with earnestness that
the so-called investigation by the sub
committee was one-sided and unfair,
the effort being only to ecure testi-
mony to support ~preconceived opin-
ions. These things have led us to
make some examination of the testi-
mony taken by the committee, and we
are panied to discover in it strong
confirmation of the correctness of the
claims of the territorial advocates.
Life is too brief and our space too
limited to attempt any extended re-
view of that testimony, but we cannot
refrain from calling attention to a SAM
pie, from which a fair idea of the con
mittee method IA be formed.
At the agriculture college of New
Mexico, situated at Las Cruces, there
has beer employed for a number of
years a talented young man named
Lester. Proximity to the republic of
Mexico, where there is a constant and
increasing demand for Office men who
a speak and write both Spanish and
English, suggested to MS mind the
value to young people of a knowledge
of Spanish shorthand. and he devised
a system for use in Spanish, founded
upon the Pitman photography, and
proceeded to give instruction therein.
The subcommittee called him as a
witness, and we quote the whole of his
examination as follows:
by the chairman:
Q.-You may state your name to the
committee. Any name is Francis
Il. Lester.
Q.-And your g is what? Any
age is 80.
Q-And what is you business? A
Registrar of the college. and in charge
of the work in English-Spanish stenog-
raphy.
Q.-How long have you lived down
here? A--Twelve years.
Q.-Do you teach English-Spanish
stenography at the college? Ayes,
Hir.
Q-How many students have you
taking stenography? Ave have now
eighteen"
wanted of him. 1t is obvious that the
intention vas TO convey the idea that
New Mexico was such a foreign cou
try that n of the'leading institutions
of learning finds it necessary TO train
young business men In the art of writ
ing Spanish in shorthand. Lester was
not asked how long he had been giving
this instruction, how many had com
pleted the course, whether any of his
students had secured employment and
If so, where. These were things the
committee did not want in their rec
ord, although they must have heard OF
them. Had he been given the chance
Nj. Lester would have said there was
no demand for Spanish stenographers
in New Mexico, that there was prob
ably not one employed in the territory
but hat a number of his pupils had
found lucrative employment in the re
public of Mexico, in Cuba and were as
far away as Manila. We believe that
his school is the only one in the coun
try fitting young men for this partic
ular work in Spanish-speaking coun
tries-a thing OF great public as wei
as private value-and yet the commit
tee on territories would have the pub
lie believe that this fact tends to show
