JUDGE MANN FOR
JOINT STATEHOOD

Alamogordo, N. NJ, July S.
The Evening Citizen, Albuquer-
que, N. M.
Gentlemen-Now that the ques-
ton is settled on Joint statehood
or none, | am most heartily in ia
vor Of Joint statehood, under the
liberal provisions of the Hamilton
bill, as passed, and | cannot see
how the territories of Arizona and
New Mexico can afford to refuse
it..
We have a wonderful country,
whose resources are undeveloped
and will remain SO as long as we
remain territories, governed as we
are by a body Of men who know
little OF our interests and care less
we are seriously handicapped. Our
people are just as capable of self
government as the people Of any
state and are as deserving OF it. 1t
seems to me that by accepting
Joint statehood we would be in a
far better position, should we de-
sire separation, to obtain it with
our senator's and representatives
in congress than we are now, rep
resented only by a voterless dele
gate.
came to New Mexico three
years ago, intending to make my
home here, and | expect to live
here the remainder of my days.
feel that | have become thorough
ly identified with the Land OF Sun
shine and its interests, and in my
Judgment we should accept Join
statehood under the terms that i:
now offered us; by all means.

American Dramatic
Art Is In a Poor Way

BY D.L LUDWIG FULDA. Eminent German Dnmatst and Poet
N rich America the dramatic art is the POOREST Of all the
arts Public bodies and private citizens vie with one another
in patronizing and promoting the other arts, BUT THEY
IGNORE THE THEATER. They think it. is not good
enough to deserve subsidies. The drama is on the very lowest rung Of
the ladder.
America has not yet bred a dramatist, and still her theaters produce
almost entirely home plays-lght burlesque and comedy, melodrama,
spectacular pieces in which revolvers play the chief part Problem
plays are tabooed. There is too much Of the PRUDE in American
Iplaygoers to permit this. AAf.
Now and again one hears Shakespeare, NEVER SYSTEMAT-
IICALLY, and of the best of what Europe produces Americans know
next to nothing. Managers go on playing the same piece night after
night as long IS it fills their Golfers. This is love of art! 1T ST.
FILES ART. sf.
Then the star system! In the playbll the name of the piece lis
printed small; that of the STAR is in flaming letters. It is only the
star the American theater goers wish to see. 8s @
Nowhere in the world have I seen such beautiful actresses. No
where have T seen such ARTLESS M STAGING and
such an artless public.
The men who write for the American stage are to be envied. They
need not bother about dramatic technique. TT WOULD BE LOST
ON THEIR PATRONS. Their dramatis personae can come and go
how and when they like. Motive is not necessary.
IN THE LAND OF WONDERFUL MECHANICAL INVENTIONS THE
STAGE MACHINERY Is THE MOST PRIMITIVE; EVEN THE MOST
ORDINARY APPARATUS IS MISSING. - apas

RAILWAYS are snort OF cars, WnlleI He w As q ~
SHORTAGE rs IN TRACKS AND CRIMINAL
to provide a greater opportunity for the movement of the carsah
More cars? Yes, we need more cars, bait we need also cars of
greater capacity, heavier trains and MORE MILES OF RAIL
ROAD to haul them over. In ten years the railroads OF the country
EXPANDED 20 per cent for the handling Of a business that increased
Ito PER CENT. Suppose you are able in the neal future to increase
that expansion SO per cent? That will still leave 40 per cent a year of
the business WITHOUT N FACILITIES for taking care of it.
It is estimated that from 115,o00 to 100000 miles of track must
be built AT ONCE to take care of this immense business. But to
build that amount will cost as much as the civil war cost at least. 1t
will cost from $4,000, O00, 1000 to SIS, 000, 100000. "A thousand million
dollars a year for five years will scarcely suffice. Why, there is not
money enough or rails enough IN ALL THE WORLD TO do this
thing.
And if the rails were piled up ready for the undertaking, and if
the money were in bank today, it would be impossible to GET THE
LABOR with which to do it.
LABOR IN THE MINES, IN THE FOREST, IN THE QUARRY, Is
BEHIND A STONE WALL WHICH 1T CANNOT SCALE.
There is no question since the civil war of half the consequence
of this one. Why, you can't go out and contract with any railroad in
this country to move 500 cars Of freight from St. Paul to New York
in thirty days. And the railroad could not deliver til it should con-
tract to do it.
There is not money enough available to bring relief to this situa-
ton UNDER THE CONDITIONS EXISTING. Are men going
to invest their money in railroads as long IS railroads are considered
|OUTLAWS? The fact is the railroad has not been getting justice in
this country. Why, in the recent campaign. we beheld the spectacle of
two great political parties preaching the doctrine of the operation of
the railroads by the government. The federal government is to run the
main lines-they are the only ones that make any money n~owadays-
and the private investors can have the branch lines, THERE BEING
mo PROFIT IN THEM. Is that the way to get men to put more
money into the countryls railroads? Is this the way to get more rail
road mileage SO that the coutrys freight can be moved?
It is time to CALL A HALT in this treatment of the railroads.
Why, I challenge any one to point out a road that has not failed at
some point in its career.
HAVE GONE INTO THE HANDS OF RECEIVERS. IT'S BEEN A FAD,
AND A COSTLY FAD, TO BUILD RAILROADS. ..j

Already the result of competition
is being felt in the ferry business. The
Staten Island Rapid Transit has an
nounced that after January 4 it will
sell six tickets for twenty-five cents.
Even if the new ferry company is not
granted a lease at the foot of Fayette
street it should be given credit for
this concession on the part. of the
present company, for although the
public has asked for a cheaper fare
to Tottenville, it has been ignored

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 6
MORE .sRING" RULE.

Unless the democrats who have
been elected to the state Legislature
are men, it looks as if the same old
gang" would run things at Trenton
this winter. as far as the assembly
is concerned. For a second time since
the election a conference has beer
held in New York, this time at the
Manhattan Club Tuesday, at which
q handful of men discussed among
themselves what the Legislature
would and would not do; who should
be speaker and who leader; which
counties should be recognized and
which ones were to be ignored.
According to the accounts in last
nights papers, only six men were
present. They were Jim" Smith and
'Jim" Nugent, of Essex county,
"Bob' Davis and former Senator
Robert S. Hudspeth, of Hudson coun-
ty; and State Chairman William B.
Gourley, and S~enator-elect John
Hinchliffe, of Passaic county. AS
on the former occasion, former Sen
ator Smith was the host.
These six men. constituting the
main part of the same old gang"
coolly planned what the legislature o.
New Jersey was to do at the comlnq
session. Davis said Hudson had 4
man for the speakership, and Nj
gent said Essex objected. He even
went so far as to declare that as he
and Smith weTe the men who selected
the eleven Essex assemblymen who
were elected, he should have some
say in the selection of a speaker.
Smith thought Assemblyman Ho,.
combe. of H~unterdon county. SHOULD
be speaker as a kind of recognition
Of the smaller counties. Hinchlife
objected TO the way Essex wanted Z,
t'hog 1t all and Nugent said if HUI T..
0 insisted on the speakership, Es
e would have a candidate of her
own.
Thus was the time spent.
These six men, not one of them a
member of the assembly, wrangled
among themselves what the l~egisla-
ture, elected by the people of Neg
Jersey. to legislate for the people.
should do.
The people? Who are they thai
they should be bold enough to think
that they even had any rights at all?
The assemblymen? Bless their
dear souls, they were home mindins
own affairs. What business is it
theirs who shall be speaker, who
be leader and what countie5
