SENATOR quay
To Forefront
Pennsylvania Statesman Will Again
Take Up the Statehood Fight for
New Mexico and 1t Is Generally
Believed His Efforts Will Meet
With the Success They Deserve.

opposed to separate statehood for the
two territories is that the country is
dry and unproductive, therefore the
population is small and much scat
tered and it would tax the resources
of the territories too much to main
tain state governments. The most
weighty objection, however, is that to
create states out of territories having
a population of about 10000, having
a considerable percentage of Indians
and non-English speaking people
would give these territories undue
representation in Congress.
Senator Quay believes that the ma
tfenal irrigation laws will increase the
value of vast tracts of land in the
now arid parts of the territories and
tina this will encourage immigration,
thussincreasing the population. When
asked how the question of the popula-
tion of the two territories could be de-
termined, he said by the federal CEN
sus. "If the federal census Of 1910
shows there are residing within the
limits of the present Territory of
New Mexico 100000 people, then New
Mexico could secede from Arizona and
establish an independent state. If on
the other hand, Arizona had the re-
quisite population, it could secede
from New Mexico and establish an in
dependent state. 1t would apply eth
ef way"

CoNFERS WITH
THE PRESIDENT
Governor Ode11 of New York Re-
turn From a Political Visit
to the National Capital.

New York, Nov. Ex-Governor
Odell spent a few hours in this city
on his return to Albany from Washing
ton where he conferred with President
Roosevelt and Senator Platt about the
condition of the Republican party IN
this state.
Odell said that the conference
brought about harmony in badly
strained relations which existed, that
Senator Platt is still the leader OF the
party in this state, but he, himself,
hereafter will take more active part
in the management, that the restora-
tion of cordial relations was brought
about by concessions on both sides. In
regard to the vote of this state IN the
national convention, he said that he
had always expressed himself as be-
lieving it will be given to Roosevelt.

HOMESTEAD ENTRY
CONTEST CASE
Register and Receiver of the Local
United States Land Office Hear
ing in the Taking Testimony.

The contest case of w. H. Friedman
versus John l.. Zimmerman, involving
the homestead entry of the latter
which takes in a part of the reservoir
site of the Santa Fe Water and Light
Company, was begun late yesterday
afternoon in the local United States
land office, before Register M. X.
Otero and Receiver Fred. Muller.
Lew H. Blake is contest clerk.
The contestant was represented by
Charles F. Easley, Esq, and A. 3.
Renehan, Esq, and the contestee by
BENJAMIN M. Read, Esq, and II. b.
Ferguson, Esq, of Albuquerque.
The evidence so far offered on the
part of the contestant is to the effect
that Zimmerman's homestead entry
consists of lofty and rugged bluffs not
susceptible of cultivation of any kind,
excepting about an acre and quarter
of land which lies within the exterior
boundaries of the small holding claim
of Captain Candelario Martinez.
1t was also shown that if the opera
ton of the reservoir was prevented by
intrusion upon the rights of the Santa
Fe Water and Light Company the in
habitants of the city of Santa Fe
would be without water supply for 40
nestle irrigation and fire protector
purposes.
The hearing was resumed this morn
ing at 10 o'clock, and at the hour OF
going to press the contestant was
still presenting his evidence.

Odds Are Still in Favor of Lanky
Bob" the Ex-Champio,i of the
World.

San Francisco Nov. 25-Interest in
the Fitzsimmons-Gardne fight which
occurs tonight is at fever heat IN
sporting circles today. The pool
rooms are thronged and betting is
quite brisk. The odds are still in fav-
or of Fitzsimmons ranging from 10 to
8 to 10 to 8. At this afternoon the
men were scheduled to weigh not over
1853 pounds.
Gardner will make rather close
fit.
He has conserved his strength in
systematic manner, and is said to be
right on edge. Fitzsimmons will be at
least four pounds within the limit,
and has no complaint to make regard
ing his fitness for the fray, although a
cold has made him little stiff in the
joints. This yielded to vigorous mas
sage, however. Eddie Graney, who
has handled all the big contests re-
Gently, will be the referee.

KRACS FOR
GUARDSMEN
War Department Honors Requisi-
ton Of Governor Peabody Of
Colorado for a Thousand.
SITUATION AT MINES
With 500 Soldiers Posted Success or
Failure Of Strike Lies With Mine
Managers.

Telluride, Colo, Nov. 25-With 500
soldiers posted in the various mines
of the district, the success or failure
of an attempt at the resumption OF
mining depends almost solely upon the
ability of the mine managers to find
men who will work in the places of
the strikers.
There are not the slightest indica-
tions Of a break in the ranks of the
union men. The majority of the 1,2OO
miners and mill men who went on a
strike to enforce the demand for an
eight hour day in the mills departed
to other mining districts. There
were left here only about 300 idle
ones. President Guy E. Miller of the
union said today that all honorable
means would be employed to prevent
the mines from being operated with
non-union men.
kraas for Colorado Troops.
Washington, Nov 25-The war de-
partment has honored the requisition
Of the Governor of Colorado for 1000
Krag- -Jorgensen rifles, clothing, sup
plies and other equipment for 1000
men. 1t is stated that Colorado is
merely receiving the supplies she is
entitled to under the law as enacted in
the passage of the Dick bill and they
are undoubtedly issued this time be-
cause the Colorado militia has been
ordered out by the Governor for the
purpose of preserving order in the
districts affected by labor strikes.
This action has no direct relation to
the visit of Major General Bates to
Colorado to investigate the labor
troubles for the reason that no report
has vet been received from him on the
subject.
