hood. The meeting is part Of a
scheme fixed up by the oficeholders
of both territories, to Illustrate the
will OF the people and prevent them
from having an opportunity to vote
upon the joint statehood proposition
by creating In impression in the
minds of members of congress that
the people of boil territories are op-
posed to the measure. A majority of
the members of the committee are
oficeholders under the present terri
torial administration, and the pas
sage of a joint statehood bill by
congress would cause them to lose
their jobs. They fully realize this, be-
cause they know hat If the people
EVER get a chance to vote on such a
proposition, it will be accepted by an
overwhelming majority.
The coming meeting has been work
ed up secretly, at a time when there
is no party issue of any kind before
the people, and the agents and heel.
ers' of the local administration have
been securing the Territory to secure
the attendance of a sufficient number
principal business of the meeting
will be the passage of a resolution
in opposition to the admission Of this
Territory and Arizona as one state,
thur placing the Republican party of
New Mexico in open hostility to the
settled policy of the national admin,
and the national Republican
party. Can the Republicans of New
Mexico afford to be placed in such a
false light before the people of the
United States, and by an influence
which is known to the world as a
part of the Andrews machine?
At least two-thirds of the Republi-
cans of his territory are
in favor of statehood in any form,
and a considerable proportion of
them prefer joint statehood to any
other sort. Can they afford to let
this oficeholders' scheme go through
without entering a vigorous protest,
and taking the necessary action to
congress and the country know
that they most positively object to
having their attitude upon this sub
ject or any other defined by a COM
mittee which IS commonly believed
to be the personal property of Bull
Andrews, of Pennsylvania.

A NICE LITTLE SCHEME.

Albuquerque Journal (Rep.)
The Republican central committee
of this Territory, which is to hold a
meeting at Santa Fe next Friday, is
a part Of the Andrews machine"
After he had secured his nomination
last year, by the lavish use Of Penn
sylvania money, he dictated the ap-
though there are a few re~calcitrants,
the majority is made up of men he
can trust. For that reason there is
no probability Of the committee TAX
ing any action that might be con-
strued as ~unfriend1y to Andrews. The
majority will not likely have sufh-
cfent gall to pass a whitewashing
resolution. They would undoubtedly
like to do So, but they will hardly de-
fly public sentiment to that extent.
and since the meeting was called for
another purpose. they will probably
ignore the Pennsylvania scandal en-
tirely.
That other purpose. as Is well
known. is to do anything and every
thing that can be done by the com
