The message from St. Louis states
| that Miller still has the merchandise
with him and was trying to dispose of
it when he was apprehended or de-
scriptiOn furnished the police there
by the department of this city. The
stolen articles were household special
ties, such as lamps, carpets. rugs, etc.
Chief Miller wired requesting the St.

Miller had been working for the
Ridgely company two weeks when he
turned thief. The company has a
number of agents whom it sends
through the cities and country in this
territory.
Miller started out one day about a
month ago with a supply valued at
$500 and never returned. He drove
into the country. having a single COW
cred wagon. The following morning
the rig was found in the livery stable
where it was boarded, but there was
no trace of Miller or the merchan-
disc.
The goods presumably had been
boxed and shipped on an evening train
to st. Louis. Miller probably had been
laying low not attempting to sell the
goods until he believed that the search
for him had been abandoned.

to the disposition of the grazing prob
 lem, and this very materially affects those who occupy these lands. The special land commission appointed
 for the purpose made full investiga- tion, conferred with the people in a delegate convention held in Denver and then placed it's conclusions before the president in form of report. It is popularly believed that as was the sentiment at the Denver meeting, the report of the committee will recom- mend, and the president in his mes- sage will advocate the legislation nec- essary to classify such lands and in- augurate the new plan of occupancy of the range which will have as it's ob- ject the improvement and permanency of the public range, which has stead- fly retrogressed. Prof. Forbes, of the Arizona experiment station, who ably advocated plan similar to the Aus tralian law at the Denver meeting re- ferred to, embraced the same ideas in his address before the irrigation con- gress at Fl Paso recently on "Home- steads, Leaseholds and Grazing Range Administration in the Vest"

JOINT STATEHOOD.

uC bCuNCt iNCpuoiiOdu odyS VI puC pending joint statehood bill:
 "l'he question of admitting the re- maining territories as states will probably occupy a good deal of the attention of congress during the win ter session. A bill is pending to ad- init New Mexico and Arizona as a single state, and it seems to present the only prospect for statehood, for those territories Tn the near future.
 Ut is understood that the measure has received the approval of Presi- dent Roosevelt, and it is asserted that it is joint statehood or none at all. So far as the present congress is con- cerned, there is no question that New Mexico and Arizona will be excluded unless they come in as a single state. What they might look for in the more or less remote future is different matter.
 "United they would make a great state, and each is so little developed as yet that they would easily and speedily grow into each other if placed under the same state government. Their resources would be great enough to support large population, and the new commonwealth would speedily rise to strength and dignity. In area it would rank next to Texas, and in course of time it would become one of the most powerful states of the far west.
 "These and other considerations suggest that the people both of New Mexico and Arizona should encourage the joint statehood plan. They should be willing to accept statehood under these conditions, opening, as they would, the path of greatness and power, rather than throw away all chance of being admitted into the union for it may be many years to come. The pride of Arizona would be preserved by conferring its name upon the new state, while New Mexico would secure the capital under provision of the enabling act making Santa Fe the capital of the joint state. The hope of securing separate statehood should not blind the people to the probability that nothing but joint statehood is within their reach.

Mexico is making arrangements to go upon a gold basis in the same way the United States put the Philippines by issuing dfty-cent dollar and maintaining it's stability at the ratio of thirty-two ounces of silver to one of gold. That will do away with the huctuation of exchange and keep the Mexican Peso constantly exchangea- ble with the American dollar at two for one, instead of ranging from two to two-sixty as it has done during the past five years.

Two hundred farmers of Dunklin county, Missouri, have petitioned the legislature of their state to cede that county to Arkansas, as they are ''too self-respecting to reside in a state which has gone republican.
