AS TO LEMONS.

Some folk do not know how to treat
lemon. They will look far to find a large,
fat, smooth, clean one, of brightest yellow
rind. They do not know that such a
lemon is greener than it should be to
produce the perfect juice. The rind is
sometimes quarter Of an inch thick and
the juice Is not OF the acidity which we
desire. Such a lemon should be laid away
until it becomes hard and dull This
gives the juice chance to ripen and
double itself in quantity as well as great
ly improve it's quality. On being opened
1t shows that the inner white pulp Of the
rind, has been entirely absorbed, and the
juice Is syrupy and very tart.

Most people in this country imagine
that in the orange they have the real
thing, the whole real thing and nothing
but the real thing. The orange has a
"complexion," however It's color is not
Invariably satisfactory, and we are now
to have the fruit dyed to captivate the
eye Of the connoisseur. The. necessary
tint is to be acquired by infusing MOTTO
coloring into the rind Of the orange This
it is commended will make the wild seed

Spain. Algiers or Syria. An orange of
any other color would taste as sweet
and probably the consumer will continue
to prefer the unlimited product Of nature.

THE WORK OF CONGRESS

Next Monday, January 5, congress
 will resume the work which was in- terrupted by the holiday recess. It will have just fifty days in which. to
 work before final adjournment on March f. So far the only congress sional labor completed is the passage of the pension bill, carrying an appro- priation of s139, 900, 900 There re- mains on hand all the other great ap- propriation bills which cannot get through without much debate. This will leave little time for the consider ation of a number of the important questions before both houses.
 Here are some of the things which will demand the attention of congress when the appropriation bills are out of the way: Cuban reciprocity, antitrust legislation, the statehood bill. the Dick militia bill, the Lodge bill, providing for currency reform by means of modified asset currency; the immigra- tion bill, the army general staff bill and a number of measures Of lesser importance. That some of these must go by the board seems certain.
 The statehood bill is one which promises to block the way to speedy action on a number of bills The sen ate committee on territories is on rec ord as opposing the admission of New Mexico and Arizona. but favoring the admission of Oklahoma and Indian ter ri:ory as one state, while Senator Quay is leading the vigorous fight for the passage of the omnibus bill pro viding for the admission of all four aspirants for statehood honors. The senate has done things to the militia bill by removing certain provisions which it is probable the house will de mand reinserted. Friends of the Gu ban reciprocity treaty are hopeful that they will get the treaty ratified and there is some reason to believe their hopes are well grounded, but only time can tell. Senator Hoar has indorsed the publicity feature of the proposed antitrust legislation and that leads to the belief that some action may be taken in this regard, but that, too, is problematieal. To sum up, congress has more work on it's hands than it can accomplish in the limited time It is gamble which of the several i'm portant measures will get through.
Bisbee daily review., 1903-01-04
ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO AS ONE STATE

The press dispatches of last night bring the intelligence that there is a movement on foot at Washington, on the part of the enemies of statehood, to come forward at the last moment with a proposition to unite the terri tories of New Mexico and Arizona as one state and under the name of lief ferson to admit them to the union. Strange to relate, the chairman of the republican central committee Of New Mexico, seems to favor the proposi- tion. The gentleman is quoted in a special dispatch to the Denver Repub- lican as follows:
 Tn an interview today W. s. Hope well, chairman of the territorial cen tral committee of the democratic party in New Mexico announced him self in favor of admitting Arizona and New Mexico as one state with three representatives in congress, the capi- tai to be fixed for ten years at Santa Fe"
 Without knowing, the Review ven lures the assertion that the gentleman halls from Santa Fe himself, and not being willing to trust the location of the capitol to vote of the people of the proposed new state, attempts to locate the new capitol by an act of the national congress.
 But there need be no alarm. The residents of both Arizona and New Mexico are opposed to the consolida- tion scheme, and rather than lose their Identity in such manner would deny themselves the privilege Of statehood for years to come. Individually, Ari- zona and New Mexico possess the nee l essary qualifications for statehood, notwithstanding the adverse report submitted by the junior senator from Indiana. These territories are stand | ing on their rights, demanding justice and the fulfillment of pledges made by the party now in power.
 Any effort of congress to consolidate these two territories will be bitterly opposed both al home and at the na. tional capital.
