THE OTHER SIDE
OF THAT MEETING,
OF the Republican Central Committee
Held at Santa Fe.
From the Albuquerque Citizen.

Held at Santa Fe.
From the albuquerque Citizen.
A spectator who was present at the
meeting Of the Republican central
committee in Santa Fe gives The Cit
zen some very interesting facts about
it. He says that there were but thirty
five of the seventy members present.
either in person or by proxy and that
in fact, half of the thirty-five we're
represented by proxy: that but fifteen
counties were represented in either
manner of the twenty-five counties;
that of the remaining ten counties.
some of them are almost unanimous
for jointure. Six men or three county
representatives, voted against the an
tijointure resolution, SO that taking
those from the fifteen, anly twelve
counties were represented, or less
than half h territory, but this is not
the worst, for ten of the votes cast for
the a~nti-resolution were by the execu-
tive committee, which was permitted
to vote, and should cot have zen as
they were selected simply from the
friends of the push, and do not like
the two regular delegates from each
county, represent the party in that
county. Gentlemen present showed
kilograms from the two delegates
from Sierra county, one delegate from
Lincoln county, one from Chaves coun
ty, and me from Mckinley county,
while other gentlemen had letters
from several other of the missing
counties, practically all of which
were against the resolution, SO that it
can be seer hat the meeting was not
in any sense representative. First, it
did not represent half the counties of
the Territory; next, twenty-seven out
of the twenty-nine votes cast for the
resolution were votes of Office hold
ers under the thumb of the admins
tration. 1t is funny that these men
pretend to declare what the sentiment
of the Republicans of New Mexico is.
Gregory Page, who is the only anti
joint statehood man in his entire coun
y, had the cheek to vote there for
that resolution, as representative Of
his entire county.
The whole thing was tame. No n
around Santa Fe could tell what the
meeting was about or what it was call
ed for, as none of the calls were in
evidence. The delegates themselves
did not know. After the delegates all
arrived that did come, they reported
all around the hotels that there would
not be anything said on statehood,
! yet that was the only thing don 1t

Wanted to Fight All the Time.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 29.-Marvir
Hart will have the chance of meeting
James ]. Jeffr.es for the heavyweight
championship next summer.
The rugged Louisville fighter secured
the decision over Jack Johnson, the ne
gro heavyweight, In a twenty-round
bout at Woodwards Pavilion, last night,
but neither pugilist showed any cham
pionship form. Hart was the worst pun
ished of the two. and had the negro
fought fight which he showed himself
at times capable, he should have won
handily.
Aggressiveness Won.
Referee Greggains gave the decision
aggressiveness. The spectators were
wholly of the opinion that Johnson was
suffering from a streak of bright yell
low Whenever he did fight he made
Hart look like an amateur.
The Louisville mans aggressiveness
seemed to rattle Johnson, and his cour-
age would ooZe. There was not
knockdown in the whole fight, and with
the exception of the ninth round there
was little of pugilistic moment
Rounds All Alike.
The last ten rounds resembled each 9th
er. Johnson pegged away with straight
iefts and rights. which cut Harris face,
while the Kentucky colonel walloped
away with right swings to the body and
head Referee Greggains. speaking of the
mill. said:
Hart won because he was aggressive
throughout. He wanted to fight con-
tinually. Johnson, in my opinion, logged
IT."
Johnson was to / favorfte when the
fight began. After the first few rounds
Johnson let Hart do most of the leading
except in the ninth round, when, with
lefts and rights, the negro punished
Hart badly.
Loser Started Well.
Johnson showed the best form in the
first round and landed several hard
rights on the body in the clinches. He
also drove a couple Of swings home
on Harris head The second round was |,
more lively, with Johnson showing the |
best form. He smashed Harris kidneys. |
which caused the Louisville man to |

Hart put two hard rights to the hearth
in the round. Hart was aggressive in
