R0DEY WILL
STAND PAT
He Declares That New Mexico
Wants Separate Statehood
and Wilson is With Him.
FATE IN BALANCE
Tomorrow the House Committee Will
Hold a Conference Before Making
Report.

A special dispatch to the Globe.
Democrat from Washington says:
''The statehood question is getting to
a white heat among the delegates
from the territories in Congress, who
are being prodded by their constitu-
ents at home. They are demanding
from the House committee on territor-
les report of some kind, so that they
may know where they are at The
last hearing was given on the state
hood proposition last week. Delegate
MCGUIRE author of a statehood bill
taking in Oklahoma and portions of In
dian Territory, made long speech in
support of his bill and that ended the
oratory. All Of the territories have
been heard. The delegates and dele
cations from each Of them have ap-
peared before the committee and
talked at great length in behalf Of
their respective territories.
Chairman Hamilton has promised
to call conference of the committee
for Tuesday. The Republican men,
bers may have caucus for the same
purpose. They will then meet and
each will present views. The Republi-
can members are understood to favor a
two-state bill, while the Democratic
members favor making three states Of
the four territories, including Indian
Territory with Oklahoma.
Delegate Wilson of Arizona will lis
ten to nothing but separate statehood
for his territory and Delegate Rodey
of New Mexico does not want Arizona
and New Mexico joined into one state,
but is anxious that Mr. Wilson, if he
fails to secure a report for single
statehood for Arizona, ask that it be
given to New Mexico. This Mr. Will
son has not consented to do. These
two delegates today declared they
would stand pat for separate state
hood for each territory.
Mr. MCGUIRE was before the com.
mittee for several hours. He was ask
ed many questions in the course of his
speech, Mr. Robinson of Indiana, who
has joint statehood bill pending, be-
ing one of the chief inquisitors. Mr..
Mcclure admitted that rather than no
statehood legislation he would prefer
statehood for Oklahoma under her
present boundaries, cutting out those
provisions of his bill allowing the ac-
luisition of sections of the Indian Ter
ritory when a certain percentage of
the Indian lands became taxable. He
argued that it would be an imposition
upon Oklahoma, however, to attach all
Of Indian Territory to her at present"

CONSTABLE DURAN
SHOT AND KILLED
BY Deputy Sheriff at Central satur
day Night-Octaviano Gonzales
Found Murdered.

A killing occurred at Central, Grant
County, Saturday evening, in which
Abel V. Duran, constable of the Silver
City precinct, and well known Re.
publican politician, lost his life at the
hands of Deputy Sheriff D. M. Turner.
Duran had stopped in Central on his
way to the Mimbres River to serve
some process. While inside of a sa-
loon, his horse broke away from the
hitching post to which it had been
tied and disappeared. Duran had
been drinking quite heavily and this
occurrence angered him very much, so
that he became quite abusive Among
others, he accused Deputy Turner Of
turning the horse loose A controver-
sy followed, resulting in Duran draw
ing his gun and shooting at Turner.
The deputy defended himself by re-
turning the fire, hitting Duran three
times and mortally wounding him,
death ensuing within few minutes.
A coroner's jury exonerated Turner
from all blame, but it is understood
he will ask grand jury investigation.
Duran was an active, energetic officer
when sober, but disposed to be quar-
relsome when drinking. He was a
member of the Rough Rider regiment
during the Spanish-American war. A
wife survives him. The remains were
brought to Silver City for interment.
The remains of Octaviano Gonzales,
a resident of Santa Rita, who left his
home last Sunday to look for some
missing horses, were found Wednes.
day morning in the mountains about
six miles distant from Santa Rita. He
had evidently been shot from ambush
and instantly killed. There is no clue
to the murderer.

CO." At a meeting of the committee

| the following resolution was intro.
duced by Secundino Romero, a men,
ber of the committee, and was unani-
mously adopted:
Whereas, it has come to our knowl-
edge that our delegate in Congress,
Hon. B. s. Rodey, has declared in the
public press of New Mexico, that it is
impossible to secure for the people of
New Mexico from the present Congress
of the United States, statehood, ex-
cept that We surrender our name of
New Mexico and are baptized and CIV
en- the name of Arizona and except
that we be joined to that territory in
single state, and
Whereas, in the opinion OF this COM
mittee We are entitled to the rights;
benefits and privileges of statehood
under the terms and provisions of the
treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, without
surrendering our name and institutions
to the territory of Arizona. Therefore,
be it
Resolved, That we are unalterably
opposed to the plan now being formu-
lated by Congress whereby it is pro-
posed to join us with Arizona in sim
gle state under the name of Arizona
Be it further
Resolved, That Hon. B. S. Rodey
be and he hereby is urged to continue
in his efforts to secure statehood for
New Mexico, as this Territory is now
constituted under the name of New
Mexico and oppose any and all at.
tempts to unite New Mexico with Ari-
zona under single state government.

ed, horse, fot and dragon by the
friends of H. o. Bursum, Abeyta hav-
ing but two votes to go with him for
the carrying out of his own schemes.
The friends of Mr.. Bursum in the party
have a complete organization in every
precinct in the county including Mag
dalena and Kelly. The primaries have
been so arranged that no underhanded
work on the part of Abeyta and his
crowd can be done and we'll attended
and fairly conducted primaries will be
had. 1t is more than reasonable to ex.
pect that the convention will select
ten delegates from this county to the
Las Vegas convention who will be
man for man in favor of the election
of Mr.. Bursum as delegate from the
Territory to the Chicago convention.
The Abeyta crowd showed fight, hav-
ing been supplied with sinews of war
in the shape of Doodle" from Santa

help them hereafter. The best and
truest Republicans of the county are
united and will insist on a Bursum

tive and county ticket this fall.
