The statement made in the last issue,of the Deming
Graphic that while it is claimed that there is a good deai
of joint statehood sentiment in Grant county there seems
to be but little of it in Luna county" is not borne out by
the facts and is misleading and evidently calculated as
a sop to the gang Of political shysters who are for "single
statehood or none" During the past week 179 voters in
this city were interviewed as to their statehood senti-
ments, with the following result: One hundred and two
found that were against either single or joint statehood,
and but seventeen that were for single statehood alone;
eighteen of those intrviewed were Undecided. Now if, as
We are at liberty TO do, we add the 102 who are willing
to accept either joint or single to the seventeen who are
for joint statehood only we have a majority of 1T out of
19 who may be classed as being for joint statehood, es-
pecially as that is the only thing We can get.-Deming

EVENING rs. MOPNING

It is noticeable. says an exchange. that the growth Of
evening papers in almost every section rapidly outstrips
that Of the morning editions and that many of the latter
have been abandoned altogether, the publishers embark
ing in the evening field instead.
Recently one CT the largest papers in Rochester, n.
Y, made a canvass of big advertisers to ascertain the rel
alive merits of evening and morning papers-as shown
by the results OF their use of the columns of each. The
publishers received replies from 1876 of the leading depart
ment stores in f~orty-hve of the largest cities. Ninety.two
per cent of these replies expressed a preference for the
evening paper as an advertising medium, IL out of the
1876 considering the morning paper the best medium.
The Rochester paper summarized some of the fea-
lures that go to make the evening paper the predominant
ing factor in an advertising campaign as follows:
1t is delivered at the home each night when the
whole family has time to read it.
1t is carried home by the business man when his
days work is done and it stays there. A morning paper
is usually carried down town by the head of the family
and hurriedly read.
The evening paper is not read hurriedly but thor
Oughly, so that all advertisements receive their share Of
attention.
1t presents the store news a little ahead, giving the
prospective purchases time to plan a shopping tour for
the next morning.
The evening paper presents the news the day it nap
pens. The morning paper the day after.
The evening paper presents the news first. The NOR
ming paper merely Celebrates it.
The evening paper prints daylight news. The morn
ing paper takes what is left.
Any one in Albuquerque can easily satisfy himself
that the Rochester paper knew what It was talking about
To go no farther than right here at home and in the last
few days, the people of albuquerque learned first and
through the columns of The Citizen that peace had been
agreed upon between Russia and Japan, that three Ber-
nalillo county officials had been announced as removed by
the governor, and a complete summary Of the different
articles in the treaty which the ENJOYS would sign.
These are but three out of hundreds upon hundreds
of items in general, territorial and local news-selected
only because of their recent occurrence-which The Citi-
zen furnished people and which, otherwise, they would
not have known till twelve hours later.

Water Supply and Irrigation Paper No. 1856, is one OF
the free publications sent out by the United States Geo.
logical Survey department, Washington. I. C. From it is
learned that the cost of pumping water in salt RtvG
valley, Arizona, varies from ga to 1873 cents per acrefoot
per foot of lift, or from $3.50 to about So per acre-foot OF
pumped water. Since fuel is the greatest item of eX-
pense, the cost could be greatly reduced by the use of
electrical power, which might be furnished for about $50
per horse power per year. At this rate the best pump
ing plants of Salt River valley could raise water at a cost
of II cents per acre-foot per foot of lift, or an average
cost per acrefoot of pumped water of about rs cents for
the present lift. The value of an acrefoot of water APP
piled to irrigation in Salt River valley, lowing to varying
prices of fuel and varying depths of the lift,) varies from
$685. to s56.45. In this mart of the Rio Grande valley,
The Citizen rises to remark, the water being near the
surface and the application of cheap electrical power OF
easy arrangement, water for irrigating farms can be de-
veloped at a cost SO small as to be nearly nominal.

that the verse was written by VIII

came to this country m 1876, and who
