NEGRO I'm

The Morning Journal is certainly one of the most
remarkable instances of facility in eating crow, TO be
found in the public press of this day and country. But
yesterday almost proved too much for even its capacity.
Having published a telegram, yesterday morning. which
was a lie from beginning to end, and the falsity Of it
having been exposed in The Citizen last evening, the
Journal of course had to take it all back this morning.
However, it was a bitter pill and in the effort to make
it more ~palatable, the retracted falsehood was covered
over with a fake special" eoncocted as usual in the
Journals own Office.
However, in this instance the Journal was as much
sinned against as 1t was a sinner. In fact it's main fault
in connection with this particular case was it's proverbial
anxiety to injure any and every enterprise of this city
or territory, regardless OF the general value of such en-
terprise, If only there be connected with it some person
or persons against whom the Journal has arbitrarily
assumed a grudge. This well known popularity of the
morning paper is much to be regretted.
But in the present case the Journal did receive the
telegram published. 1t was not, like so many kilograms
published by it, made in its own Office; and thereby
hangs a tale. This fake, because absolutely false, tele-
gram came to Denver and was published by the Repub-
iican and the News of that city, each as a special to its
own paper. At Denver this double special was slightly
altered in words but not in statements, and from there
sent out as an Associated Press telegram to the AIbu-
querQue Journal and the Ell Paso Times.
The recent investigation of the insurance companies
IN New York has shown that those companies yearly
eNpend large sums in salaries to newspaper men, the
supreme duty of whom is to procure publication in tel
egraph form of absolutely false matter. Now it is evil
dent that the kilograms sent out from Pennsylvania about
The Pennsylvania Development company, and which the
Journal has so eagerly published, are of this Identical
character. 1t is also evident that the purpose of these
kilograms is to damage the Development company. lower
the credit OF the Santa Fe Central, and defeat the build
ing OF the albuquerque Eastern.
The Citizen is glad to learn that the officials OF the
development company are determined to unearth the
origin OF these kilograms and expose the parties who are
endeavoring to injure their property; and The Citizen
hereby expresses the earnest desire, in which it will be
9ond by many in New Mexico, that the Journal shall
hereafter more carefully consider the subject matter
OIL us news and cease lending itself as a willing instru-
hent to all who may desire to injure territorial and city
enterprises.

JOTNT STATEHOOD

The president on joint statehood found a little stick
fully as enectual as the big stick with which he Drained
the lawless corporations; and, incidentally it will soon
be quite amusing to see the speed with which the ants
will tumble over themselves in trying to get into the band
wagon. Rats always forsake a sinking ship.
The presidents utterance on statehood for the terri
tories was a model illustration of that anciently lauded
virtue of much in little" Clear, concise, incsive, un-
answerable, it dsposes of the statehood question by pre-
senting it in an absolutely new light, which is not only
recognized as i~rrefutable at the first glance but which
is causing everyone interested in the question to ask him
self-why hadn't l thought of that before?
The presidents position is that territorial entities
have been created out Of the public domain for conven-
fence of administration, and that such creation confers
upon the territories no rights-whether of continued ex-
istence, intactness of boundaries. preservation of names,
or silly sentimentalism of any kind-which the nation
must observe when it undertakes to form a new state.
The territories, when segregated from the general do
main, never ceased TO be national property; and when in
the wisdom of the national government the general good
of the American people is to be advanced by comforting
upon certain territories or parts of territories or aggre-
cation of territories, the blessings of statehood, the sole
question to be asked is-not what certain sentimental
grannies and chronic office holders and grasping cor
porations may want, but-What is for the best interest
of the owners of these territories, who are the Ameri-
can people. at large?
In the light Of this aspect of the question, which the
president makes as clear as a sunbeam, the utterances
of Mark Smith, of Arizona, and James Graham Nc
Nary, proprietor of the Las Vegas Optic, together, look
about like fifteen cents. Common decency to the peo-
pie of Arizona" as Mr.. Smith puts it, has been SO fat
tened out that it is safe to say 1t will never again be
made to do duty, even in the continued absence of all
argument. Mr.. McNary, who by the way, comes out
for the first time in favor of no statehood, though the
utterances of the Optic have all been in favor of single
statehood only as a preference-Mr. McNary says, eve
do not want this thing, and the more Beverage and his
colleagues say we must take it, the more our American
ism exclaims that we will not take it." Thanks are due
to Mr.. McNary for two facts, not before known. They
are that he has been in the territory fifty years, and
that the president is a colleague of Senator Beveridge.

Symposium ON Joint
Statehood Question
MESSAGE.

I reeommen that Indian Territory and Oklahoma sc
admitted as one state, and that New Mexico and Arizona
be admitted as one state. There is no obligation upon
us to treat territorial subdivisions, which are a matter Of
convenience only, as binding on the question Of admis-
sion to statehood.
Nothing has taken up more time in the congress
duhing the past few years than the question as to the
statehood to be granted to the four territories above men
toned, and, after consideration Of all that has been de.
veIoped in the discussion Of the question, commend
that they be Immediately admitted as two states. There
is no Justification for further delay; and the ACCESSIBILITY
Of making the four territories into two states has been
clearly established.
In some Of the territories the legislative assemblies
issue licenses for gambling. The congress should BY
law forbid this practice, the harmful results of which are
obvious at a glanee-President Roosevelt.

Doctors Humorous
Reply to Patient

\ prominent Boston physician tells of the many ridic-
ulous requests that were received by Investigators in
connection with the Roentgen rays when the experiments
We're first taken up in that city. Hundreds of applica-
uons were received from various parts OF New England
from individuals who had or imagined they had, bullets
and snndry other foreign substances in the different
portions OF their anatomies. one investigator received
a most remarkable request from a man living in Haver-
hill, Mass. His communication was couched in some
thing like the following form:
Il have had a bullet in my thorax for nigh onto ten
years, and, as am too busily engaged all day to come
to Boston, ! trust that you will find It convenient to come
here and locate the bullet. ! am positive the case
would well repay your coming. But If you can not come
yourself then send your apparatus and III get one of our
local doctors TO use it,
The medical man to whom this letter was addressed
being OF a humorous turn, his reply was as follows;
ITO my regret / shall be unable to visit you; nor
can send you the apparatus. But, In the event that
you should find it absolutely impossible to visit Boston
II you will send me your thoraX, l assure you that will
do the best | can for yOu."-Success Magazine.

FEWER ACRES

Fewer acres and better farming" is what F. d.
Coourn' secretary Of the state board Of agriculture of
Kansas, says should be the farmers ideal now. Mr..
CobuTn loathes a fad and when he retires from service
II can never be said that Kansas has lost time in agri-
cultural progress through the chasing Of chimerical little
birds that fly after success in agriculture by any ROYAL
road except that of intelligent work, Thorough tilage
OF the soil, and good seed is the ground work upon which
MT Coburn bases his standard and certainly Kansas
the right track.
Il came to this state at a time when il was con-
sidered foolhardy for anyone to attempt to farm profit
ably. There was no agricultural future after you crossed
the Missouri, in the general opinion of the world of that
Time. We began to farm just the same and each time
that a man located his farm west of yours he was con-
sidered a little more daring and adventurous than the
Ieiiow Just before him. This going on and on, pushing
beyond the supposed agricultural belt by the newcomers
Widened the arabic districts gradually until now the
Kansas farmer has pushed the improbable lands of of
the map and we have a state made up Of one vast rich
agricultural tract and valuable herds of cattle pasture on
lands once RELOCATED TO the buffalo"

New mexico's Next Governor.

u am in favor Of joint statehood for New Mexico
and Arizona, if it can be secured on terms which are fair
and it seems TO me that the time has come when the
statehood question should be settled. Ii
its agitation for so many years has done New Mexico
great harm by creatoing an unsettled state of feeling,
p%rejudicial alike to our political and material interests,
to have the question properly settled, once for all, would
do vast and far-reaching good. The people would know
what their permanent political future is, and they would
resolutely set themselves to work to adjust themselves
to It'll. J. Hagerman.

An Arizonan Speaks

Keep at congress for jointure, said T. ID. Casanega,
OF Calabasas, to The Oasis editor. You are right. The
people of Arizona and New Mexico need self government
with a railway commission which will regulate frieghts
and fares, and a board of equalization which will regulate
taxation SO the railways and big producing mines will
bear a fair share of the burdens of government. The
only way TO secure the reforms needed will be by having
a state government elected by the people and responsible
to the people. Put me down for statehood; any old kind,
and the quicker the better.

senate committee on territories, was in conference with
republican party leaders last night, among them Speaker
Cannon. Statehood was discussed and it was announced
after the meeting that there would be an omnibus bill
passed this session, or no bill at all. This is the bill
admitting Oklahoma and Indian Territory as one state,
land New Mexico and Arizona as another. 1t is con-
ceded at all hands that such a bill will become a law

lyn' when leaving for the north today, that while l have
been a long and consistent advocate of separate state
hood, and still believe in justice New Mexico should be
come a separate state, that with the president and the

only kind possible, and believe we should accept that
form rather than remain longer a territory Optic.

PICKING Out Positions.

Former Governor l.. c. Hughes is the logical leader
of the few joint statehood advocates in the territory,
and If the bill eventually passes, he will be the logical
candidate of the Arizona forces for governor of the new

New Mexico, will be the logical candidates for the United
States senate.-Tucson Post.

The United States Geological Survey SAYS that The
geologic conditions in New Mexico are less known than

blessings.

SOME SHORTAGE IN CARS FOR
CARRYING WHEAT BUT
NOTHING SERIOUS.
General Selling Movement Is Not
Laree-Wheat PiIins Up In
the Warehouses.

A fair volume Of business is doing |
in wheat in the aggregate, but the trade |
is not characterized by any large SELL
ing movement, judged by the amount
of wheat in sight, says the West Coast
Trade. Interior points report heavy
movement to the warehouses, where,
as for some time, a great many grow
ers are storing their crop to await de-
velopments in the market. Exporters
here, as elsewhere, do not appear to
regard the cereal as a good buy at any,
thing above ruling quotations, and are
moving with conservatism. On the
other hand a great deal more wheat
would be passing out of first hands for
immediate shipment but for the fact
that there is not enough rolling stock
! available to carry the grain to ship
ping points. Thus far the shortage Of
cars has not reached serious proper
tions, but there is considerable appre-
hension on the part of the trade that
it may do so, as the inability to pro-
vide for the present moderate wants
does not promise wel, should there be
a wave Of heavy buying inaugurated.
Receipts About the Same.
Wheat receipts locally were the
same as a week ago, 421 cars, or slight
ly in excess of 100000 bushels, but the
record for Monday was the largest for

mand is not attracting much attention
