Arizona republican., 1905-01-19

nounced yesterday but President Webb stated that they had not all been made up and that he was prepared to announce only one of them, that on enrolled and engrossed bills. whose members are Messrs. Neal, Hull and Picl1rell.
 It will be remeDered that on the first day of the session the house hastened by joint resolution to express it's dis approval of the joint statehood bill. The council did not adopt the resolu- tion, though it was in accord with the sentiments expressed in it. But it ob- jected to the verbiage. and decided to get uo another, which would be rhet- orically correct. The house therefore appointed a committee, consisting of Messrs. Neville, Anderson and Cobb. and the council appointed one made up Of Messrs. Rice, Looney and Cutting, to confer regarding a memorial offered by Councilman Bark the day before. At 9 o'clock in the afternoon the following joint memorial No. was reported to both houses and adopted by each:
 -''To the Senate of the United States We, the legislative. assembly, repre- senting the unanimous sentiment of the people of this territory, most re- spectfuIly. earnestly and emphatically protest against the proposal embodied iI 2 bill now pending before the senate of the United States to make one state of the territories of Arizona and New Mexico.
 we insist that such is without pre- cedent iu American history. It threat ems to fasten upon us a government that would be neither of, by, nor for the people Of Arizona. It would be a gov ernment without the consent of the governed. It humiliates our pride, violates oIr traditions, and would sub ject IFS to the domination of another commonwealth of different traditions. customs and aspirations.
 with the most kindly feelings to- ward the people of the territory of New Mexico, we must protest against the proposed union, and would rather remain forever a territory than to ac- -cept statehood under such conditions.
 Resolved, further, that the text of the resolution, over the signature of the president of the council and that of the speaker of the house, with the vote by which it is passed, be forthwith tel egraphed to the president of the sen ate, to our delegate in congress, to Senators Bard, Bate, Newlands, Bailey. Foraker Morgan, Bacon and to Marcus A. Smith"
 The vote was unanimous in both houses, but it was desired that the res olution should show the names of the members voting. That was done, and at the request of Mir. Nugent, who is confined to lis bed by illness, it was made to appear that he was present and voting.
 An act appropriating $50 for the pay ment Of the transmission of the me moriaI was passed under a suspen- sion of the rules in both houses.
 Preparations were completed for the biennial inspection by the legislature of the various territorial institutions, sometimes irreverently called the leg islature's junketing trip. by the ap- pointment of the following commit tees:
 Northern Normal school at Flagstaff House: Nessrs. Cobb, Anderson and Pomeroy; Council Messrs, Bernard and Berry.
 The Industrial school at Benson House, Timmons, Davis and Collins; Council, Messrs. Barker and Downs.
 University of Arizona - House, Messrs. Bailey Stanford and Keating; Council. Messrs. Rice and Roemer.

 The Tempe Normal schOol-House. Nessrs. Hull, Bristol and Patterson; Council, Messrs. Cutting and Page.
 No time has yet been set for the de- parture of these committees, but they will probably set out the latter part of the week. On account of the trouble al the Gila, the visitors to the southern institutions cannot at present get away It $ not expected that any inn portant legislation will be attempted until after the return of the commit tees.
 Several bn,s have been drawn, ready for presentation. one of them for the absolute suppression of gambling within the territory. which may be of fered in a day or two.
