Walter Douglas, on Being Informed of
 Conditions This Morning, Wired the
 Money to the Ranger Captain to Car
 y on the Search.
 When Walter Douglas was informed that Captain Rynning had telegraphed to Mayor Overlook of this city for $500 to meet the expense of the ex. yeditiOn going in search of the lost GrindeI party, and that the captain had been informed that the money could not be furnished, he at once came to the rescue and wired Captain Rynning to draw GU him for the re- quired amount.
 This money should have been fur. nished by Douglas, and we believe if the request for it had been placed be- fore the people of the city it would have been quickly raised. The idea of abandoning the search for the GTindell party should have never been entertained for a moment by any one. The lodges of the city-the Rlks, Eagles, Masons and Knights of Pythias-contributed s20O toward the expenses of Captain Rynning, but no other request for funds was made in Douglas. Mayor Overlook could not be expected to stand for $500 on his personal account, it is true, but before turning down his request he should have called the people of Douglas together.
 Now it will be in order for Douglas to at once raise the money and re turn it to MT. Douglas, with the thanks of our people for his prompt action in a matter which was compro- missing the good name of our city. It is important that this matter be at. tended to, and We suggest that Mayor Overlook call a public meeting of the citizens for that purnose.
 Hon. Herman P. Goebel of Cincin. natl, a member of the congressional party that recently toured the south. west, on his return home was inter viewed by the Cincinnati Times-Star Judge Goebel, while in Arizona, said that he was most favorably impressed by what he had seen. It will be seen in the following interview that the impression lost none of it's strength after he reached home.
 That is a fine country out there; fine people. fine children, fine schools and fine future for the people in those territories, and a fine prospect for both sections of our national ter ritory."
 In this emphatic manner Judge Her man P. GoebeI, congressman from thel Second district of Ohio, crystalIized his opinion Of both Arizona and New Mexico, from which he has just re. turned. Continuing, he said:
 T am. as the result of that visit, unalterably opposed to the joint state hood bill. I think it was passed under a misapprehension by the house. also believe that the visit we made to both territories will settle the fate of the joint statehood bill, as I think it was passed under a misapprehension by the house. Our party was com. posed of the Hon. James A. Tawney who, as the representative of the Times-Star has quite correctly stated, may be chairman of the appropria. tions committee of the next house; the Hon. Martin Madden of Illinois; the Hon. E. s. Minor of Wisconsin; the Hon. Halvor Steenerson of Min nesota; the Hon. c. R. Davis of Min nesota; the Hon. Henry Cullen Ad ans Ol W ASNOiAoihs tAAT lACA- T AOAAlcio Marshall of North Carolina, and my self.
 We travelled over 5000 miles and also took a dip into Texas. We came home amazed over that magnificent country and it's generous people. We wanted to go as quietly as possible, see all we could and return home as we went. But the people would not have it that way. If we had been so many Roosevelts we could not have had a finer reception all along the line.
 We addressed the people from the back platforms of the cars, in their great halls, their assembly rooms and in the hotels. We visited every prom fnent mine in Arizona, Mexico and New Mexico, and until then had no idea of the tremendous mineral wealth of that country. In the greatest depth of one of the greatest mines a ban. ouet table was spread and everything seasonable was furnished us. We at tended one of the great convent schools, and were received with the greatest hospitality.
 We found that the sentiment in New Mexico on the statehood bill Is evenly divided. Some are in favor of joint statehood and many favor no statehood at all Arizona Is almost unanimous in opposition to joint state hood. Uncle Sam is completing a great irrigation scheme in Arizona, which will redeem thousands of acres from arid wastes to a fertile country. Arizona will be the great curative re sort of our country.
 Their school system Is splendid. The people have plenty of money, business is good, and both territories are developing rapidly. At Phoenix we met Paul Ingles, a former Cincin natl boy, now one of the attorneys of the territory. The previous time when I had seen him was when he was a page for Judge Jackson, form erly of the superior court"
 Congressman Goebel states that he thinks neither territory is ripe for admission to statehood, but it can be read hpfUaeu tha lines that he WOuld
