In the County Convention Febru-
ary 27, Select Five Dele
gates to the Las Vegas
Gathering.
INSTRUCT FOR
GEO. W, PRICHARD+
Put Themselves UnequivocaIIy on Rec
ord in Favor Of Single Statehood
With Present Territorial
Limits.
Special to the New Mexican.

Lincoln, N. M, Feb. 27.-At the Lin
coin County Republican convention,
held in Lincoln today at the court
house, George w. Pritchard, Ira o.
Whitmore, Henry Lentz, Joseph Ser
rano and Charles Spence were elected
delegates to the Las Vegas territorial
convention. The following resolu-
tions were adopted:
Whereas, The county of Lincoln, al
though Republican county, has not
been honored with delegate to the
national convention in many years,
and
Whereas, This county by right is en-
titled to delegate from this territory
to the national convention to be held
in Chicago on the 21st day of June
next; and
Whereas, The Republicans of this
county have unlimited confidence in
the integrity, loyalty and ability of the
Hon. George w. Pritchard; and
Whereas, We believe that he would
reflect credit upon the Republicans of
this county as well as the Republicans
of the whole territory in our national
convention;
Ther5taia be it Resol 5ed, That the
delegates from this convention to the
territorial Republican convention to
be held at Las Vegas on the 10th prox-
imo, are hereby instructed to confer
with the other delegates in said con-
vention, and to use all honorable
means to have him chosen as one of
the delegates from this territory to
said national convention.
Resolved Further, That it is the
sense OF this convention that we are
heartily in favor of statehood, but we
are against combined statehood with
Arizona, and we desire that every eff
fort possible be made to procure state
hood for our territory as now cOnsti-
tuted, which we firmly believe can be
accomplished if the people of this ter
ritory hold out for single statehood,
which we are entitled to by virtue of
our population, wealth, intelligence
and the treaty of -Hidalgo
guaranteeing the same to us.

HAS NOTHING TO
SAY ABOUT IT
Attorney General Knox, Declines to Give Opt.
nion on Sale Of Fort Marcy Lands.

Some weeks ago Solicitor General
Bartlett addressed letter to Delegate
B. S. Rodey requesting the latter to
call on the Attorney General of tho
United States to give an opinion as t.
the powers of the city board of edu-
cation to sell such portions of the Fort
Marcy Reservation as may not be nee
esssary for public school purposes.
Today Solicitor General Bartlett re.
ceived from the delegate letter from
the Attorney General in the matter
1t speaks for itself:
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
Washington. d. c., Feb. 25, 1904.
Hon. B: S. Rodey,
House of Representatives.
Sir: | regret that l cannot comply
with your request of the 18th instant
for an expression of my opinion on the
question of the authority of the Board
of Education of the city of Santa Fe,
New Mexico, to sell and to give good
title to such portions of the Fort Mar
cy Military Reservation at that city
as are not needed for school and other
public purposes. The statues (secs.
354, 356, Revised Statues) do not au-
thorize me to give an official opinion
to any other person other than the
President or the head of an executive
department. Regretting that I cannot
be of service to you in this matter,
remain, Very respectfully,
M. D. PUNDY,
Acting Attorney General.

An ExTENTIoN OF
THE STRIKE FEARED
The Three thousand Union Drivers OF Kansas
City May Go Out ID Sympathy
With Truckmau.

Kansas City, Mo-, March 2.-The
drivers of baggage wagons of some To-
cal transfer companies went out today
without warning and joined the 400
truckmen who struck yesterday. There
is possibility that all the union driv-
ers in the city, numbering 5000, may
also go out in sympathy with the
truck drivers. Most of the men now
out are negroes and violence is feared
if the strike is not soon settled.

FAILED TO GET HIS MAN
Sheriff KinseIl Returns Without Porter Morrow
Who is Indicted ia Santa Fe County
for Larceny.

Sheriff H. c. Kinsell arrived last
evening from Springfield, Illinois He
was unsuccessful in locating Porter
Morrow, the man accused of stealing a
trunk full of samples, the property OF
the Simmons Hardware Company OF
st. Louis, Missouri, for which Morrow
was a travelling salesman. The sam.
pies were valued at $500 and it is
charged that Morrow disposed Of them
at sacrifice to various dealers. The
requisition papers from the governor
of New Mexico were honored by the
governor of Illinois, but Morrow had
evidently gotten wind of the affair and
disappeared. Detectives, however,
are on the lookout for him and his
capture is but question OF time.

BOARD HOLDS MEETING.

The board Of engineers held a brief
meeting in the Flood building yester-
day morning. c. w. Clarke, who owns
sixteen ranches on the Sacramento
River; A. S. Peiley, who owns a por-
ton of Sherman Island, and H Park.
a rancher Of Tulare, gave a concise
history Of the damage that has been
done by floods within the time of their
memory. They had no suggestions to
offer as to a remedy, being confident
that the engineers appointed for that
purpose were better fitted to cope with
the difficulty than they.
The board will hold meetings each
morning at 10 o'clock until they leave
on their tour. These meetings will be
informal, however, it being the opinion
OF the board that 1T is best to avoid a
general discussion of the condition un-
til after the ground has been gone
over.
