ARIZONA TlRING OF
COPPER QUEEN LEGISLATION
"HoW CAN AFFORD NOT TO
SUPPORT JOINT STATEHOOD"
SAID A TUCSON MERCHANT.

The stories that the joint state
hood sentiment is growing in Arizona
are not true said S.. II. Brake, who
travels over the southwest for McFee
& McGinty. a wholesale paint house
at Denver, at the local Santa Fe sta
tion this morning. The southern ell
ement is strongly in favor of it," con-
tinued the salesman, who is a close
observer, as the public knows every
Yankee salesman is.
"On this trip ! asked a man who is
a merchant at Tucson, how he could
afford to support joint statehood. His
answer was: How can | afford not
10 support it?'"
Mr.. Brake talked Interestingly on
the subject of statehood. He had just
returned from a paint selling trip 10
the sister territory, He explained that
the people of Arizona were just be-
ginning to realize how deeply they
were in the grip of the Copper Queen
and other mining interests Of the
southern part of the territory. They
realize that with single statehood, the
mining interests would control the
state government, as. they now do the
territorial government. Under pres
ent conditions the mining interests
are growing, but the commercial and
stock interests are terribly hampered.
The sheep men, especially, are over
taxed. and this accounts for the Mex
leans of Arizona being in favor of
joint statehood. when he spoke Of
the southern element Of Arizona, Mr..
Brake referred to the Texans and
other southerners. who have taken up
their home in Arizona, and the stock
interests of Arizona are largely con-
trolled by Texans. Mr.. Brake said
that he believed that if the matter
should come TO a show down, the anti
iointures would find themselves very
much in the minority in Arizona, as
well as in New Mexico.

MAY PURCHASE
MATCHMAKING PLANT
MARTIN TlERNEY GOES TO WIN
GATE FOR THE PURPOSE OF IN
VESTlGATING - WILL REPORT
TO CITY COUNCIL.

The plans that have long been dis
cussed of having the city prisoners
work on the streets is about to bear
fruit. Martin Tierney has gone TO
Wingate where he will inspect the
matchmaking plant of ID. j. Tirsway,
together with it's machinery, for the
purpose of reporting on the advisable
ity of purchasing it to the next meet
ing Of the city council.
In the event that the city council
should gee fit to buy it, they would
have the entire plant removed to this
city ana would at ono start the work
of grading the streets of Albuquerque,
using the city prisoners for the most
parL OF the work.
AS the plant at Wingate is a very
hne ole, n as the city is anxious
to make some use OF the prisoners
which at present are a dead loss on
the city, it is more than likely that
the city council will buy the plant and
start the work of identifying Albu-
querque's streets, many of which need
1t, and that badly.

ELKS PLAN TO GIVE
BIG MINSTREL SHOW
ENTERTAINMENT COMMITTEE
MET LAST NIGHT-TALENT TO
BE PICKED TONIGHT.

At a meeting last night of the enter
tainment committee of the Elks lodge,
Arthur Cavanaugh, who returned to
Albuquerque yesterday from Arizona,
outlined plans for the presentation of
a minstrel show by local talent in the
near future, probably some time dur
ing December or the first part of jan
uary. AS a result of the meeting Mr..
Cavanaugh issued an invitation to all
Albuquerque residents who believe
that they have any minstrel talent,
to report to him this evening at 1880
o'clock, in the Elks lodge rooms.
AS Mr.. Cavanaugh is an end nan
who has accumulated considerable
fame in minstrelsy, a performance
may be anticipated under his direction
which will eclipse all previous efforts
in this line.
Mr.. C%avanaugh will move his fam
lily to Albuquerque from Colorado
Springs, where they are now located.

ALBUQUERQUE TO BE CON.
NECTED WITH OUTSIDE WORLD
BY LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE
LINES ABOUT THE FIRST OF
THE YEAR-WoRkMEN HAVE
REACHED SANTA FE.

The construction gang of the Col
orado Telephone company, who are
busily engaged in building from Las
Vegas to this city, have reached
Santa Fe with the pole line, and II is
expected that the wire stringers will
have completed their work into that
city by the middle of this week.
This will give Santa Fe connec-
tons with Denver, and through that
city with the rest of the United States.
1t is expected that the workmen will
reach Albuquerque about the first oil
the year with the poles, but the wire
will not be completed into this city
until some time later.
The Colorado Telephone company,
which has a local Office here. has had
long distance connection with Las
Vegas for the past two years, but it
was only of late that they started
building from that city into Albu'
querque.
When the line is completed and
the long distance phones are Install
ed in the place of the local telephones
now in use mere, 1t will be possible
for residents of Albuquerque to talk
from their residences or places of
BUSINESS to any part of the United
States.
Manager Elder, of the local Col
orado Telephone company's Office,
states that his company contemplates
making a large number of improve
ments as soon as the long distance
line from Las Vegas is completed into
this city. and that, with improved
conditions, and long distance toll
lines, Albuquerque will have one of
the best telephone services in New
Mexico.

CONSTABLE SMITH.
WAS ASSAULTED
Mrs. Penick He Alleges
Struck Him in the Eye
Breaking His Glasses.
THE ACTION WAS DISMISSED

James II. Smith, the constable. be
came involved in a peck OF trouble
yesterday afternoon at The meme of
Mrs. J. r. Penick, 712 West Tijeras
avenue. The constable was struck in
the eye and his spectacles broken by
Mrs. Penick, the elimination of the
ARRAY being the swearing out of a
warrant for the arrest of the woman,
which was served early last night.
OminOus clouds gathered about the
Tijeras avenue residence Friday
morning last. when Constable Smith
went to the home of Mrs. Penick to
collect the rent, alleged to have been
past due by the owner Of the prop
erty, A. Clarion. Mrs. Penick told the
officer of the law in plain English that
she would not pay the rent until the
owner had complied with his promise
in making some repairs. Heated
words are alleged to have been ex-
changed between Mrs. Penick and Mr..
Smith at that time.
The next thing for the officer TO do
was to secure an order from the court
to compel Mrs. Penick to vacate the
premises. This he did, and yesterday
afternoon Constable Smith arrived at
the Penick abode with the legal in
strument in his inside pocket. Ac-
cording TO his account of what hap
pened, the constable raped at the
door and Mrs. Penick opened it. but
when she learned of the officers mis-
sion, started to close the door in his
face. which the willy constable pre-
vented by using his foot. At that
moment, so MIR. Smith claims, Mrs.
Penick swung her left fist into his
face. the blow striking him in the
left eye and splintering his eye
glasses. Mrs. Penick alleges that the
officer attempted to strike her also,
and told her If she was a man she
would be severely punished for the
blow, and that IL the rent was not inn
mediately forthcoming she would be
turned into the street. Mr.. Smith
claims that he made no effort to strike
Mrs. Penick.
Mr.. Clarion, who by the way, did
not witness the alleged assault, tes-
titled in police court this morning
before Judge Crawford, that shortly
after the ARRAY he went to the Penick
house and was told by Mrs. Penick
that she had smashed the man in the
face he had sent there in the after
noon, and that he would get the same
medicine if he called on the same
mission. A native girl, who was in
the Penick house at the time to do
some dressmaking, described the
trouble in a manner which substan-
tiated the testimony of Mrs. Penick.
In the opinion Of Judge Crawford, Con
stable Smith exercised too much vio-
lence in serving the legal papers and
he accordingly dismissed the action.

WHY IS PRlCHARD
AGAINST STATEHOOD?
Friends of the Measure Are
Heartily Amused at
His Conduct.
THE TURN OF Tit LEAF

The special received by The Citizen
yesterday, telling of the part Attor.
ney General George w. Prichard and
other New Mexico politicians are TAX.
ing in the fight against joint state
hood at the national capital. brings
to the mind of the writer the conduct
of MIR. Prichard previous to his ap.
pointment to the office of attorney
general, thus obligating himself to
Governor Otero. It's a case of the
sensitive palm of the leaf of the plant
turning with the sun, and basking,
profting and growing under its rays,
At the outset of the joint statehood
movement no more ardent supporter
of it could be found than Colonel
Prichard of White Oaks, Lincoln
county, and it was quite compliment.
tary to the movement to have the
Colonel's support. He was an attor'
ney at law of reputation and a gen.
tleman of deep thought, one who had
lived under a territorial form of gov
ernmen for many years and was OF
wide experience.
Colonel w. S. Hopewell says that
he remembers when Colonel Prichard
came to him and congratulated him
on the stand he had taken for joint
statehood. Even In California last
summer, the writer remembers that
Colonel Prichard took great delight in
talking of the beauties of joint state.
hood, to Hon. Marcus Smith, delegate
from Arizona. w. II. Greer was an
other New Mexican who took delight
in talking joint statehood to the Hon
Marcus Smith, and so ardent were
these gentlemen in their support OF
joint statehood and so fertile were
their arguments, that Mr.. Smith
finally fed to Catalina island in the
Pacific ocean, to escape them.
Then those who Witnessed and
heard the able speech made by Col
onel Prlchard in support Of Hon. B.
s. Rodey at the last territorial repub-
lican convention, will also remember
that the colonel, Immediately after
the convention, made a trip over the
territory campaigning for the nomi'
mated candidate. Directly after that
campaign, the politicians who had on
two occasions defeated him for the
appointment of district judge, made
him attorney general.
The influence Mr.. Prichard ought
to have on the members of congress
on the statehood matter, should act
very much as a boomerang.

In the issue of this date is published
the address OF O. E Berry before the
old settlers: Fifteen years ago there
were about 30 miles of railroad In the
state, now there are four parallel rail-
roads crossing the state from east to
west and two from north to south,
making in all more than 2s00 miles
completed. Is years ago, it took more
labor to market load of produce
than 1t did to raise it, and oply one
man at that early period ever sold q
load of produce out of county. Joseph
Schafer is, I believe, the first man
who sold load OF wheat in this coun-
ty in the McGregor market. Now we
can mostly market our produce in our
county and for prices as large as we
could at McGregor at an average Of
five days with a man and team. Is
years ago there was not school house
