Joint Statehood.

Harper's Weekly has entered
the ring and is fighting to blight
the prospects and crush the
hopes of the people of New Mex
leo and Arizona for single state
hood. Who pays that paper for
its services does not appear on
the surface, but it will be hard
to make the people of the terri
tories in question believe its
unfair and untrue statements
are a freewill offering to the
cause of joint statehood.
1t charges the railroad and
mining interests and the local
politicians with being the antag-
onists of joint statehood. 1t
gives no heed whatever to the
voice of our people. which are.
by decisive majority in favor
Of single statehood and on this
wise closes its malicious bray:
we do not hesitate to say
that there is rot a single meri-
torious argument back of the Az
tihcial movement to secure sepa-
rate statehood. There is not a
single influence at work against
the joint statehood bill that is not
a corrupt influence. 1t is moth
ing short of monstrous that a
measure so essentially rightful as
the admission to the union of
Oklahoma and Indian Territory
as one state, and of Arizona and
New Mexico as another state-a
measure which, once adopted,
will endure as long as the repub-
lie endures- should be DISTRACTED
and delayed by the selfish and
ephemeral interests Of local poll
ticians and by the corrupt and
likewise ephemral interests of
mine owners and railroad mana
gers. "

His Last Lick.

An Illinois editor has been
fighting the business men of his
town for ten years, until they
finally bought him out, and he
bids them farewell in the follow
ing words:
Before stepping down and out
Editor Heller ransacked his voca-
bulary of explosives and in a
double loaded farewell hurled
scorching anathemas at every
thing and every one in sight,
ending:
If there was ever a happy
moment in my life, that comes
now, when we get to the end of
our newspaper work in Spring
Valley. Friends the best ever
we have in Spring Valley, EN-
emies the bitterest we ever had
we have in Spring Valley, but it
IS a sweet pleasure to know that
when our labors on earth are
ended we will spend our eternity
with friends in heaven, while our
enemies will be taking enforced
sulphuric baths in he'll"
Editor Heller for many years
was engaged in the business of
reforming conditions in Spring
Valley and waged a bitter war
fare on the liquor interests and
the Sunday saloon. He secured
indictments against saloon men
at every term of court, and the
cost was so expensive that all
saloons closed on Sunday, and il
was determined to purchase his
printing plant and paper.
John R. Thomas, manager of a
local brewery, is the new editor
and owner.

Proper Equipment.

Some one says it takes a pair
of oxbIood shoes, of gold glasses
and nickelplated poll pick to
make a mining expert; but the
Scientific American, in a recent
issue, tells what is essential to
the equipment Of a prospector.
Commenting on the above named
papers article the Ell Paso Herald
says:
The Scientific American has an
educational and interesting ar
ticle on the equipment of pros
pector for gold and silver, from
which it appears that a man in
tending to look into the private
affairs of the Rocky Mountains
should always carry an electric
battery along probably to shock
the natives. Also he should take
along a portable assay plant;
enough to enable him to do GUS
tom work apparently, so as to
support himself in the absence
Of grub stake. In this con-
nection, it is stated that cupels
are now made light enough to be
carried by mule. This is a
solemn fact; a fact which we all
ought to be grateful to the Scien-
tifc American for; cupels now
rarely weigh more than a half
dollar and it is a consumptive,
knee-sprung, half dead mule that
can't totC one. 1t is true that
the democratic burro some years
ago did make a failure Of an at
tempt to carry the silver dollar,
but then adollar is twice as much
as half.

< Single Statehood.

The New Mexico Republican
Central committee met at Santa
Fe last Friday and by a vote of
% to 6 passed the following
resolution:
This commit tee, representing
the sentiment of the Republican
party of this territory, renews
its declaration in favor of single
statehood. The proposition of
joint statehood never emana-
ted from the people either of this
territory or the territory of Ari-
IONA, and the majority sentiment
of the people of both territories
is decidedly against it.
I'VE look upon the joint state
hood measure, so far as it affects
this territory, as an attempt at
legislative coercion. We again
invite the attention of the nation
al congress to the repeatedly ex-
pressed sentiment in our national
and territorial conventions of the
two great political parties in fa-
vor of single statehood for this
territory and express the hope
that our territory will get a
square deal, and be honored with
an early admission as a state
within its present boundaries.

With our 2 per cent. Govern
ment bonds selling at a higher
price than England's 2 1-2 per
cents, what have we to fear?

Land all Pledged.

What is good news for one sec
ton of New Mexico is good news
for the entire territory, and the
people will be pleased to learn
that the property owners Of the
Mesilla valley have pledged to
the government at least ten thou
sand acres more than necessary
to insure the construction of the
great reservoir at Elephant Butte,
and the government engineers
expect to have the construction
work completed within the esti-
mated time.
