Joint Statehood In New Mexico.

The Albuquerque Citizen, an advo- cate of joint statehood, hilariously quotes from the Arizona Star, the iso- lated jointure champion in this ter ritory. Whenever you hear an indi- vidual shouting against joint state hood, if you will press the button pret- ty hard you will discover that he is against statehood in any form" The Citizen, carrying this idea further, eX- claims. Look out for those who are crying out against joint statehood. They don't know what it means"
 Whereupon the veteran, Max Frost, of the Santa Fe New Mexican, takes up the subject as follows:
 Well, what of it! Supposing they do not want statehood under any con ditfon? They certainly have a perfect right to their oponfons just as have the citizens of New Mexico and Ari- zona who are for separate statehood Where is the wrong and why are they wrong? The New Mexican is the Nes- tor of the statehood movement for forty-twO years and hopes that it will soon De alLdiLltLl II UOtS lAOLr LlOFf ever. believe in the policy Of condemn ing citizens of the two territories who are opposed to statehood; this is free country and they are entitled to their opinions and to express them without abuse by the joint statehood advocates. This paper is absolutely and unequivocaIIy for separate state hood and is consistent in this stand When it is fully demonstrated to the satisfaction Of the people Of New Mex ico and to this paper that separate statehood is out of the question. then there will be ample time to consider the situation and act accordingly. For the present nothing is adduced except the vaporings of a few joint statehood advocates. and the sayings of some United States senato.s and represen- tstives. Until better evidence is had, the thousands and thousands of citi- -zens of New Mexico and Arizona who favor separate statehood will not give Up their cherished ambition. This is the situation in a nutshell.

RAILWAY FARES AND PASSES IN
 ITALY.

Though the law says it shall be oth- erwise, the man with political pull gets a pass in Italy just as he does in other enlightened parts of the earth. Nor that the railways are in the hands of the government, those who constitute or are closely allied to the official class Ca large part of the populatiOn) seem to feel that free or reduced rate transportation is one of their perquis- ties. A correspondent of the London Morning Post says that when the ticket collector comes to examine the tickets all sorts and kinds of mysterious-lo look ing documents are produced, quite different from the simple piece of pasteboard or coupon for which the foreign traveller has paid the full face value. If the foreigner makes inquir- ies he will find that quite a large pro portion of his fellow travellers have not paid anything like the full fare. owing to some privilege which they had obtained. Thus. first. there are the senators and the sos deputies who pay nothing at all, but whose medal. or tessera, franks theme over the Italian lines. Not content with this privilege, which, now that the railways belong to the state, constitutes a direct burden on the taxpayers. some deputies are
 
 and families. As Q minimum these gentlemen ask an indulgent, but not overgrateful, country to allow them 50 kiIos C12 pounds) of free luggage Ghere is no free luggage in Italy) and three free passes a year for their wives and children. Next comes those jour nalists who are allowed three tickets a year ct a reduction of from 40 to 50 per cent, according to distance. Then there are the noble army of railway in spectors, who travel free; the officers and soldiers, who pay only one-quarter of the proper fare; the civil employees of the government and their belong ings, who enjoy a reduction of 40 to 60 per cent. Free, or partially free, tick cts are granted at times by means of back-stairs influence to persons who have supported the institutions" by their votes and influence at the last general election, and who are thus re- warded at the cost of of the whole country for their devotion to the party

On the Roof.

MT. Castro's insolenCe and the for bearance of his better5 are a puzzle only to those who do not know the physical characteristics of MT. Cas- tro's country. Tn the Greek fable, the animal on the ground says to his high perched. secure insulter: Its not your sass I'm taking; is the roofs"
 MT. Castro is on the roof. Any nation that has a navy can blockade the Ven ezuelan ports-La Guyra and the rest and dominate the narrow strip of coast. That's simple. Getting at MT. Castro is different It's a problem for Nogi. Mir. CastrO's capital is only seven miles from La Guayra, but in those seven miles you have to climb more than three thousand feet; and steep, stiff climbing-costly deadly climbing it would be for enemies of MT. Cas- tro. He'd have ample warning of their approach, of course. His first defensive measure would be to put the mountain railway out of business. He has had expert advice in the placing of his batteries. There are twists and turns in the up-ended road where a few companies of his Andeans, who are better fighters than they look, could make things desperately unpleasant for the head of an army corps. The butchers biH"-as our English cous- ins gIimly call it-would be a big one to a certainty.
 Suppose the mountain barrier sue cessfuIly stormed, and the French troops Cor the American troops, if you please) in possession of the capi- tai. Where would MT. Castro be by that time? There are 403.OOO square miles of Venezuela. Mountains, step pes. swamps, forests-Mr. Castro and his Andeans know their way about about them They could snap their fingers at pursuit. Meanwhile the invaders at Caracas would find them selves in the predicament of looking around vainly for any government ca pable of contracting obligations in Venezuela's name and performing them.

in office. Small railway officials, sta
 tiOn masters at roadside stations and their wives, have similar privileges, so
 that the sums that the lines lose in this way in the course of a year are enormous. On the other hand, the fare in Italy for the bona fde traveIer-in which class all foreigners are includ- ed-is higher than in any other coun- try in Europe, especially for short dis tances, such as from Rome to Frascati. Add to this the fact that the Italian tariff for luggage is much higher than in Austria and Bavaria and it will be seen how much the public. which real ly pays, is mulcted for the benefit of certain classes.
