The TRIBUNE is not opposed to
allowing negroes, Turks, Chinese
or white people travelling In sep
arate cars II they so desire. That
10 their own business. But the
TRIBUNE has no use for any cam
didate for representative who pub
licly announces that the first act
he would do II elected would be to
vote for a law compelling whites
and blacks to travel in separate
cars, and'aftcr that he would vote
for all of Mr.. Folks bills. We
have no use for that calibre of a
man who as a state law maker
would devote his time and talents
to trying to pass laws for the in
tended oppression Of any person
or people, before he would work to
benefit and upbuild them. Such
a man is unfit to hold any public

A HOME FOR
THE FRIENDLEss
The Good Work of Rev. A. M. Hark.
ness Who With His Family Will
Locate in Santa Fe.

The Rev. Andrew Mckenzie Hark-
ness, superintendent of the New Mex
leo Society for the Friendless, preach
ed last night to large and apprecia-
tive audience in the Methodist Church
on Don Gaspar Avenue taking as a
basis for his sermon "The Escaped
Convict" his text being found in the
XII chapter of Acts. Mr.. Hardness
held his audience in close and intense
interest with his vivid word pictures.
He is full of his subject and handles
1t as one who is thoroughly prepared
and competent to speak of the work of
the Friendless Society. He has already
done much good among the convicts
at the penitentiary. Mr.. Harkness ex-
poets to leave for his home in South
Dakota this week and will return with
his wife and children to Santa Fe
where he intends to make his perma-
nent home. He will set to work to
raise funds with which to build home
in this city for the friendless. Mr..
Harkness is much impressed by the
sunny climate of New Mexico and has
no longing since coming here, for the
extreme cold of the north and will
therefore take up his residence here.
AS the work he represents is of inter-
est to the community at large Mr..
Hardness will undoubtedly, upon his
return make number of public ad-
dresses in this city.

PROBLEM
More Than Likely That New Mex
leo Will Be Admitted With.
out Arizona.
NO DECISION REACHED
Oklahoma and Indian Territory, How
ever Will Be Joined According to
Representative Hamilton.
Special to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican.
Washington, Feb 1.-two statehood
forces in Congress, represented in the
two political parties, are trying to
reach some kind of an agreement un-
der which statehood bill can be pass
ed at the present session. 1t is hoped
to determine upon some kind of gener-
al policy acceptable to both House and
Senate, so that the action on state
hood can be harmonious. AS the case
stands now, the proposition which is
receiving most consideration, is this:
Admission of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory as one state; admission of
New Mexico as state; deferring the
proposed admission of Arizona until
that Territory increases in population
and industrial development. This pro-
posed program, of course, is being Wig
orously opposed by the friends of Ari-
zona. There is practically no disagree
ment between Democrats and Republi-
cans as to the advisability of the ad-
mission of Indian Territory and Okla
homa, and their combination into one
state as agreed upon. The territories
have the necessary population and in
dustrial development to entitle them to
consideration AS Oklahoma was
carved out of the land of the Indian
Territory originally, there is no geo.
graphical difficulty in the way of join
ing them again. But the new state
thus formed would be Democratic. Re-
;v, ipci icf hot
publican community should be brought
in, if the Democrats are thus endowed
with seven more votes in the electoral
college,
The combination of New Mexico and
Arizona into single state, is opposed
for geographical as we'll as political
reasons. So the problem is sitting
down to the proposition of bringing in
New Mexico and holding Arizona back
for awhile. The House committee ON
territories will wrestle with the prob
lem first and expects by the end of
next week to have policy outlined. 1t
is believed that Indian Territory and
Oklahoma can obtain ten million dol
lars for public schools. A sub-com-
mittee of territories of the House and
Senate will draft a bill next week.
Bill Not Yet Framed.
A dispatch from Niles, Michigan,
says: Congressman Edward l.. Ham
ilton of Niles, says that the committee
on territories, of which he is chair
man, will report bill Joining Okla
homa and Indian Territory in one state
and that such bill will be likely to
pass both Houses AS to Arizona and
New Mexico, he says the situation is
not so certain"

NEW MEXICO
BUILDING AT
WORLDS FAIR
Contract for It's Construction Has
Been Awarded to John Ca11egan
& Co. of st. Louis for Sc, 900.

The building committee of the New
Mexico board of managers of the st.
Louis exposition met this afternoon at
the capitol, chairman c. A. Spiess pre-
siding. l. H. Rapp the architect of the
board, was present and submitted the
bids he had received while in St. Louis
for the construction of the New Mexico
building according to the plans and
specifications prepared by him. The
board had made an appropriation of
$4,000 for the building with instruc-
tions, however to the building commit
tee, if not sufficient that the amount
could be increased to the sum neces-
sary, provided it was not too great. The
building committee, therefore conclud-
ed to accept the lowest bid, namely
that of John Callegan & Company at
$4,000. This will not include the elec-
trio wiring nor the fixing up of the
grounds surrounding it. This will
have to be done by other contractors
and will increase the cost about $4,000.
Mr.. Rapp was instructed to enter into
contract with Callegan & Company
as per their bid and to push the con-
struction of the building with all pos
sible speed. The director of the build
ing at the exposition will be informed
of this action at once and will be re-
quested to have Callegan & Company
sign the contract and bond. The plans
and specifications for the building have
been approved by the exposition au-
thoritieS.

FOREST FIRES RAGING.
Acres Of Valuable Timber Lands Have

Stock Has Perished.

ACTSS OF VALUABLE UuOST 60Huo raw
Already Been Destroyed and Much
Stock Has Perished.
A forest fire is raging north of Las
Vegas in the vicinity of San Ignacio
and thousands Of miles of fine timber
land on the Las Vegas grant have al
ready been destroyed. The fire started
early Saturday morning, the first indi-
cations being clouds of smoke rising
from the foot hills. Carelessness of
campers in not extinguishing their
camp fires is supposed to have started
the fire. The village of Las Dispen-
sas is in the direct path of the flames
and unless the wind changes its de-
|,,truction is certain Rangers, assist
ed by many men in the community,
are doing all in their power to check
the fire but thus far with no results.
Thousands of dollars worth OF proper
ty has been destroyed and much stock
has nerished. Las Vegas is covered
with pail of smoke and the air in the
city is stiffiing, the thermometer regis
tering 70 degrees during Saturday al
ternoon. Range Rider Steward reports
another fire ON the Mora grant 20 miles
north OF Las Vegas. It is burning
fiercely and threatens to assume alarm
ing proportions.

NOTES FROM WOOD
COUNTY NORMAL SCHOOL

Prof. Jackson and Miss Michaels will
spend few days in visiting country
schools before the regular observation
and practice work begins. Mr..
Jackson went out with Supt. Morris
Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.
His report to the school Thursday
morning showed five schools visited.
Only good things are reported after
these visits, so the teachers need
never fear visit from Training school
teachers. Some things that could be
remedied will no doubt come as general
suggestions later On but no reference
will be made to the visit that gave
the suggestion.
Miss Louisa Sweat, of New Rome,
visited US Thursday morning.
We are glad that Miss Sharkey was
not SO i'll as was reported. She is in
school again.
The new library books have come
and are being catalogued.
Students are illustrating by actual
work most of rhe suggestions to
teachers found in the Manual.
P.of. Jackson brought back two maps
and some written work prepared for
ordinary recitations by Winnie Taylor
aud May Dennis from one of the
schools visited. Teachers are invited
to send we'll prepared exercises to the
school as illustrative work.
