LESSON THREE OF ANTI
KITTENlSH STATEHOOD CATECHBM
From St. Johr Herald

What is an argument put forth by the Graham Guard.
ian? The following Motifs" which it published as orig
inal, with the explanation that it occurred in Graham
county, and was written and posted by an advocate Of
joint statehood: EFF emmy mans or womans horses, COWS
or oxens gifts into this here field. his or her tail will be
kut off as the case may bee"
Is it original with the Guardian? 1t was copied into
the Columbian Jester, edition of 1S45.
Was the Guardian quoted as original in this? Yes;
by the Blade, Citizen, Gazette, ct al, with this remark:
THAT is a fair sample Of the intelligence of the people
who want joint statehood"
Will that kill jointure? Not a bit.
viii these editors have to swallow jointure? They
will.
They are in the same position as the boys in Mr..
Squeers school; only these will have to swallow jointure
instead Of sulphur and molasses.
Do these editors love the taxpayers? They do; but
they love somebody else still more.
What did the Prospector say about jointure? The
rank and file of the joint statehood coterie-two Arizona
editors-have resolved to call a convention at Tucson
and debate the vexatious question. The meetin' will
doubtlessly be a howiin' success, and while there will not
be a dissent, conglomeration and miscegenation will have
crowned the efforts of the convention"
What did it mean by rank and file" and "coterie?'
These are supposedly choice terms to exhibit the other
fellow as an object of derision.
Who are the two editors referred to? 1t is not right
to guess who is meant, as there are more than two in
that.
Will the Prospector have to take jointure, too? Yes,
or hunt another prospect hole.
Which Arizona newspaper produced the first real
argument against jointure? The Register, which is not
afraid to tackle any derned old thing, and does it without
using any vile epithets.
Will you give that argument? 1t comes in another
lesson?
What does the Gazette call jointure? A crime.
What does the Gazette call w. B. Clery? Every
man, woman and child in Arizona"
How do you make that out? In one little spot in its
columns it said: Every man, woman and child in Ari
iona are giving their money and time to down the crime
of joint statehood" And in another little spot it said;
wv. B. Cleary is the only person who is working against
the monster crime of joint statehood" Or words to that
effect. That's how it was got at.
Is Phoenix getting ready for single statehood? She
is.
How? By gobbling up all the offices and handing
them over TO her residents.

A Santa Fe Extension,

Assurance has come to the Graphic that the Arizona
and Colorado railroad will be built and it is very likely
that its principal eastern branch after it reaches Grant
county viii come to Deming, while the western branch
will come to southeastern Arizona. 1t does look as If
within a year and a half Deming would have a fourth rail
road Instead Of three. The growth of our town may be
slow but it is substantial and with four railroads it Is
bound to become a much better business place and one of
more population than at present. Everything in due time
and our people need not despair, nor need they have the
blues; they are doing as well as other towns in the ter

TIE 5

An exchange puts the condition of the Muscovite EN-.
pire strongly but somewhat o~vcrdrawn when it says that
only the magnificent personality and polished diplomacy
of Envoy NJ. de WHITE saves Russia from a pitiable atti-
tude before the world.
whipped, bankrupt and threatened with revolution,
she has nothing to hope for in continuing the war and
she dares not come to peace.
Japan asks no more than is her right. She could &C.
cept no less But it is more than Russia can grant and
live.
In framing her peace terms Japan has the right to
demand assent to her view in the dispute that preceded
the war, an indemnity for the cost of the conflict and ter
ritorial guarantees as security for the future. Russia can
concede Japan's claim as to Manchuria and Korea and
an pay an indemnity. But to give territorial guarantees
of peace is to abandon the national aspiration and the
imperial policy of expansion which have inspired the gov
eminent of Russia for hundreds of years. TO concede a
mighty domain and to pay a princely indemnity is easy.
But for a nation to give up its centurynourished dream is
difficult.
Russia is the greatest single aggregate of humanity
under one government in the world, excepting only China.
China has over a thousand miles of coast, and Russia Not
one port upon the open sea that is accessible the year
round. To force her way to the sea has been the grand
impulse Of her politics and the cause of her wars for
more than 500 years. 1t is the one common purpose
which has given cohesion to the half savage hordes of
northern Europe ever since the days of Peter the Great.
and which alone today holds them together. If that one
common impulse is now to prove only a rope OF sand; II
the strainings and strivings of five centuries are to result
only in disastrous and shameful failure, then the cza.
may well be appalled, at the prospect.
Peace for Japan means anything but peace for Rus
STA. Better, a thousand times over, is a foreign war
though disastrous and hopeless-than revolution. Better
for the car to be sacrificing navies, armies and vast do
mains indefinitely, than to sacrifice his throne.
The adroit diplomacy of NJ. de White puts a dignity
and a cheerfuiness upon the surface of things, but be
meath there is only hopelessness and despair.
In this connection the Globe-Democrat says that it is
now said. in a report from st. Petersburg, that that long
promised national assembly will be deferred until after
the plenipotentiaries at Portsmouth have finished their
work. If there is a disagreement, and if the war is to
be resumed, Nicholas is to publish a ringing manifesto
calling a national assembly so as to arouse the country's
patriotism, and attempt to check Japan's victories. If, on
the other hand, the plenipotentiaries should frame a
peace, nothing is determined upon about the assembly,
the inference being that the whole project will fall
through.

GOOD NIGHT, GOOD MORNING
Charles, Lord Bowen

The sun, a shining orb, descends,
Behind the mountain void;
Gloom gathers fast, the daylight ends;
Sheep journey to the fold.
Peace and farewell we torrent rills-
Good night to earth and sky;
SO homeward from the silent hills
We went, my love and |.
Come, sweet night. Day, take thy flight:
My love will make the darkness light.
Rest to the earth-the weary earth
Sweet rest: till far away
Upon the hills we saw the birth :
And %triumphs Of the day.
Again the mighty sun arose,
And on each mountain lawn
Began the million golden glows
That usher in the dawn.
Go, dear night. Come, purple light;
Rise, love, and make the morning bright.
At noon / found these violets blue
Where early morning lies,
And brought them fresh with light and dew
Not purer than her eyes.
To her who was my morning flower,
And is my flower of noon,
Soon comes a duskier twilight hour,
And night will follow soon.
Sweet face, stay; life Gibbs away;
Be thou thy lovers evening ray.
Charles, Lord Bowen.

The New York World, in uttering truths not new but
which are too much truths to be allowed to be forgotten,
says verys effectively: Don. be afraid of a little fun at
home. Don't shut your house lest the sun should fade
your carpets, and your hearts, lest a hearty laugh shake
down some of the old cobwebs there! If you want to
ruin your sons, let them think that all mirth and social
enjoyment must be left on the threshold without when
they come home at night. When once a house is regard
ed as only a place to eat, drink and sleep in, the work is
begun that ends in gambling houses and reckless degra-
dation. Young people must have fun and relaxation
somewhere; if they do not find it at their own hearth
stones it will be sought at other and less profitable
places. Therefore, let the fire burn brightly at night and
make the homestead delightful with all those little arts
that parents so perfectly understand. Don't repress the
buoyant spirits of your children; half an hours merri
ment round the lamp and fireside of home blots out the
remembrance of many a care and annoyance during the
day. and the best safe guard they can take with them
into the world is the influence of a bright little domestic
sanctum."

The extension Of the ella reserve. We understand,
according to the presidents proclamation, is an estab-

three and a half miles OF Hnlsboro, taking in the town of

SELECTIONS MADE FROM
PRESS OF SOUTHWEST
Railroad Ride In San Juan.

Last Friday we had the unique and new experience
of taking a ride on a railroad in San Juan county. Many
of our citizens have waited twenty years in the hope of
being able to do this, and now their wish can be realized.
We left the Durango yards at 6:30 a. m, and after con-
siderable switching in the yards at camp headquarters,
we left for the run down the valley. We occupied a posi-
ton where We could see the road ahead of us, and we
were surprised not only at the excellence of the grade,
but at the many stretches of straight track that came on
our view as we passed down the line. We rode as far as
the end of the track, which was then about six miles
above Azt~ec.-Farmington Hustler.

ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO

The following article from the Globe-Democrat of st.
Louis, is wise, timely and temperate:
Arizona's newspapers are making a hard fight
against union with New Mexico in a statehood bill. In
New Mexico the opposition to it Is also strong, but ii is
not so widespread or so pronounced as it is in her neigh
Dor. Arizona fights union on several grounds. The pop
ulation of the two territories is dissimilar. Each has a
history, traditions and local life of its own. Union would
make the community so large as to be unwieldy. The
chief reason of Arizonas hostility to merger, however, is
that New Mexico, being the larger, would get most of the
public buildings and most of the benefits of statehood.
These arguments against union are not as strong as
they look to be. Arizona was part of New Mexico origin.
ally. Much of its history and traditions belong equally to
its %neighbor. Physically, they bear a considerable re-
~semblance to each other. Arizona is growing faster than
feared by the other will soon be nonexistent. United, they
would be smaller in area than Texas, and immeasurabiy
smaller in population. Texas, in the joint resolution, I'M
der which it was annexed, has the privilege of dividing
into several states, but no Texan wants division. After
living a few years under a common state government, the
people of Arizona and New Mexico might also be averse
TO separation.
But if these territories turn down union they will stay
In their present status. The east, the south, and a large
part of the middle west are opposed to the creation of
two new states in the arid region west of Texas. It is
union or exclusion for them. The east will be glad to see
them keep up their fight against union, for this will mean
that they will be kept out of statehood. The east thinks
they do not deserve statehood, even If united. This is a
sentiment which Arizona and it's ~neighbor must reckon
with. A large majority Of each branch of congress is OPP
posed to giving twice as many votes in the senate to the
500, 900 inhabitants of Arizona and New Mexico as have
the 100000 people Of New York, the 100000 people OF
Pennsylvania, or the 100000 people of Illinois.

At Cleveland, Ohio, on Brainsmade street, lives VIM.
Whitworth. He, is n~early>90 years old. He works every
day. He has a modest home. He has a useful, happy
family. He has a little garden full of smiling nasturtiums
and nodding pansies. There is a porch with vines, where
account that will last him through. His health is good,
his mind bright, his interest in affairs alive. He wants
nothing. He has injured no man, and will smile when
death shakes hands with him. He has reared children
who are a real part of humanity and to whom he will
leave only a magnificent example of high philosophy and
right living. He started with Huntington, Rockefeller
and others Of the early Standard Oil crowd. He went one
way. Rockefeller the opposite. Rockefeller has his mil

to have, if he were wise and just-contentment, happiness
and a right to plead, on that day when Rockefeners mir
lions will blister his soul, that he loved his fellow man.

The buying was not aggressive, though

those handling the buying orders to
force prices to higher levels, but a

john Tolson. sixteen years of age, who
lived with his mother at % Massachu-
sets avenue northwest. has been miss
ing from home since June s. Yesterday
she reported the case to the police say
ing she feared for her sons safety.
Nothing has been seen of the boy
since the day of his disappearance He
left the house about o'clock in the
afternoon in company with Stewart
Knott, n youth whose mother had
moved 10 Pennsylvania and who had
been staying with the Tolson family
since that time, and q smaller boy
whose name is not known.
The boys said they were going to pick
berries and young Tolson carried a
small basket with him An older bro
Their of the smaller boy met the trio
before they had gone hardly a block
and grabbed him by the arm marching
him back past the Tolson house on
his way home.
When the boys did not return that

and were anxious to get something 70

PENNSYLVANIAN'S WILL GIVE
OVER MEN WANTED HERE

a United States marshal from Wilkes
barre. Pa, will probably arrive in
Washington tonight or tomorrow with
Frederick w. Kendle and Charles St
Clair. two young men who are wanted
by the local police for grand larceny
and false pretenses,
They were given a hearing before a
United States commissioner IN Pennsyl-
vania yesterday. Detective Muller.
vino was assigned to investigate their
case. was the chief witness against them
as he produced the warrants for the
arrest and told of the complaints en-
tered at Police Headquarters against
them. The young men were held under
$1,000 bond to appear in Washington for
trial
1t is alleged that ST. Clair makes a
speciality of robbing boarding houses.
while Kendle. his side partner, works
the bogus check game.
