that gratifying improvement for which
ner friends so anXiously waited. In
1899 the Territory of New Mexico was
brought to their attention as a great
sanitarium through former school
mate and staunch friend, Captain w.
G.. Reid then of Las Vegas. A short
correspondence followed and Mr.
Downs landed in Las Vegas in June,
1900, Mrs. Downs arriving in the fol.
lowing August. A years residence in
sunny New Mexico gave all the evi.
dence necessary that it's marvellous
climate could do for Mrs. Downs what
specialists and medicine could not
give her back her health
In October, after his arrival in New
Mexico, Mr.. Downs became associated
with j. S. Duncan, J. S. Clark, Frank
Springer, Secundino Romero, Fred o.
Blood, w. C, Reid and others and
the Las Vegas Record. a true-blue
and aggressive Republican newspaper
was launched, Mr.. Downs serving
this paper in both it's editorial and
mechanical departments. After eigh-
teen months residence in the Meadow
i City, Mr.. Downs removed to Silver
City where he had charge of the me.
chanical department Of the Enterprise
and from there, In the fall of 1902, he
went to Las Cruces. There he took
up the management of the Progress,
remaining with that paper until it
was by G. w. Beard consolidated with
the Rio Grande Republican. During
Mr.. Downs management of the Pro-
gress it was steadfastly Republican
and was one of the most frequently
quoted of the territorial weeklies. Dur
ing this time, Mr.. Downs was discharg-
ing the duties of deputy under James
P. Mitchell, then the clerk Of the
,lthird judicial district, in which posi-.
ton he gave sufficient evidence that,
aside from writing newspaper articles
in strong and virile English, he was a
conscientious, careful and competent
court official.
With the organization of the sixth
district, Mr.. Downs became Captain
Leahy's deputy, discharging his duties
to the entire satisfaction of all. Upon
Mr.. Leahy's resignation, Judge Mann
realizing the intricate and importan
work in this Office could not be II
more competent hands, promptly an
nounced that he would appoint Mr.
Downs to the clerkship, and this an
, nouncement has been gratify
ingly received throughout the dlstrlc
t and the Territory.

ALBERT J. BEVERIDGE.

This letter Is certain to awaken re-

opposed to joint statehood, and 1t GER
tainly will make no converts from

fer separate statehood for New

A CHARACTERISTIC LETTER.
Senator Albert J. eeveridge Writes
That Joint Statehood is Opposed
BY All Selfish, Local and
Financial Interests.

Mayor A. X. Gibson or santa re, |
has received from Senator Albert ].
Beveridge, under date of indianapolis,
Indiana, October 10, letter which in
dicates that the Indiana Senator,
whose statehood trip through New
Mexico is we'll remembered and whose |
defamation of the territories was con-
demned by every newspaper from the
Texas line to the California boundary,
has not as yet seen the light that has
come to Congressman Tawney and his
party, although he no longer contends
that joint statehood Is inevitable and
admits that he has fight on hand.
Senator Beveridge writes. and 1t will
| be noticed that he still insists upon
questioning the motives Of the oppon-
ents of the joint statehood scheme:
indianapolis, Indiana, Oct. 10, 1905.
MY Dear Mr.. Gibson
| have your letter Of October 18th
and congratulate you most heartily
upon the stand you have taken. You
have endorsed grea- cause when you
have put yourself down in favor OF the
creation of the. great new State MADE
of New Mexico and Arizona. 1t IS
State of which you Will be very proud
and of which every man, woman ana
child in the new State, from the day 1t
| Is created and as long the Republic en-
dures, will be proud.
When we remember that an attempt
| was made to divide California into TWO
States and was defeated by the far
seeing wisdom of Henry Clay, we can
see how impossible 1t will be to believe
fifty years from now, that anybody
ever opposed the reunion of New Mex
leo and Arizona and their admission
Ias single magnificent commonwealth.
Texas is much larger than the pro-
posed new state of Arizona and has
the right to divide into five smaller
States. And yet the public man who
would propose the division of the
Lone Star State would be driven from
its borders. In this great new state
taxes will be lower, public institutions
lbetter and your Importance In the coun
ellis of the Nation greater; and thi'
new State will take from the yer!
start front rank among the noblest o
American commonwealth.
1t is refreshing for US, who are fight
ing for this great cause for no othe
consideration in the world but the pa
triotism and craftsmanship involved II
the measure, to know that there ar
) those In the territories who are sup
porting US and holding up our hands
/ From the very start we have been or
} posed by all the selfish, local and fin
ancial interests; and to be mad
]. aware that the people themselves ar
being converted to this great meas
ure, which is devised solely In the II
lterests of the people, Is source {
great encouragement to us.

REGARDED AS ABSURD
The Proposed Alliance Between Rus
STA and Japan.

The suggestion contained in the Novoe
Nremya, which is regarded as the fnspired
organ of the Russian government at st.
Petersburg, that Japan and Russia should
agree to an alliance. both offensive and de-
fensive. in order to dominate political af-
fairs in the far east. is generally regarded
here as too absurd to warrant more than a
passing discussion. 1t is simply one of the
many phases of the negotiations that are
likely to come out, either officially or unof-
ficially, In order to influence the purposes
of those who are back of them
That Japan could make any satisfactory
alliance with Russia, even If she so de-
The two countries have been antagonistic
to be. 1t is said here that an alliance be-
tween Russia and Japan would place the
latter in position OF utter helplessness in
the event that after the negotiations had
been concluded Russia should fall to
promptly fulfill the terms OF the agreement
Diplomats cannot understand what japan
could gain from such an alliance to induce
her to enter into it.
But the fatal objection to such a prouosi-
ton, II there were no other, is the fact tha Z
the japanese alliance with England would
prevent an alliance with Russia The
agreement between England and Japan
was made in 1902 and was to run for six
years, so that II still has year and a half
TO be In operation Japan could not enter
into any agreement with Russia of the kind
indicated without violating her treaty with
Great Britain. and that it Is generally ac-
knowledged she Is not at all likely to do
