Judge Daniel II. Mcmillan ar
rived last night from an extended
trip east and is quartered at the
Alvarado. Judge Mcmillan is a
strong advocate of statehood for
New Mexico and he has not
always looked at il in that light
either. And the Judge says that
he thinks that New Mexico has a
good chance for il now, too. He
said that he thought that the
meeting held last night showed
great wisdom in its movement of
showering kilograms on the house
He believes that kilograms from
the people will have more
influence with the house of
representatives than anything
else that could be done. Judge
Mcmillan expects to remain in
the city several days, after which
he will return to Socorro. -Albn-

FOR SINGLE STATEHOOD.
Senate Passes Hamilton Statehood
Bill Amended to Make New Mex
leo State by Itself,
THE HOUSE WILL PROBABLY CONCUR
Then 1t Remains for New Mexico
to Accept the Boon so Long
Waited for.

The final vote on the Hamilton
Joint statehood bill as amended
was taken in the United States
senate Tuesday night. \ press
dispatch from Washington under
date of Feb. 3 says:
1T was 8:45 o'clock last night
before the final vote was taken
on the statehood bill. The vote
on the final passage was 40 to 81.
As il passed the bill provides for
the admission of Oklahoma and
Indian Territory as one state and
New Mexico as another, Arizona
is elimated and remains as a
Territory"
A special dispatch from Wash
ington under the same date says:
HOW IT HAPPENED.
During the consideration by
the T.. =. Senate yesterday of the
statehood bill, the first surprise
came when the committee of the
whole accepted Senator Foraker's
amendment providing for a
separate vote by each of the
territories of Arizona and New
Mexico on constitution to be
adopted by the proposed state of
Arizona Then Senator Bard
presented his amendment which
provided for the admission of
New Mexico as a state without
the addition of Arizona. Ii was
at first adopted by a close vote of
~ to 40 This vote was taken
while the Senate was sitting in
committee of the whole and was
reversed in the Senate proper By
tie vote of 80 to 80. Subsequent
IL the Senate decided by vote
of 38 90 30 TO entirely eliminate
New Mexico and Arizona from
the bill and this result had hard
" been announced when Senator
Bard in a slightly changed form,
renewed his proposition for
admission of New Mexico as a
state and this time the amend
ment prevailed a vote of 40 to 81.
One of the affirmative votes was,
however, cast by Senator Bever-
idge, for the purpose of moving
reconsideration. This motion
was laid upon the table by a vote
of 80 to SO. The effect was to
eliminate Arizona from the bill
and TO establish the state of New
Mexico and another of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory In this
form the bill was passed.
II now remains for the house
of representatives to concur in
the senate amendments and for
President Roosevelt to aiiix his
signature to make the bill law.
There Is hardly a reasonable
doubt that the house will concur
in the amendments within ten
days or two weeks and that the

that the petitioners would come

courage and bravery the life of President

scarcely been able to keep soul and body
together. He has slept lately upon two
chairs and a box. He wraps ragged
blanket about himself and sleeps with his

up a few pennies by running errands. With
these he buys bread and occasionally a cup
of coffee.
Despite his years and hardships, Col. Sill

While Coll Sillowaye was acting first

A confederate battery on the Virginia
