CONGRATULATES NEW
MEXICO ON STATEHOOD

Governor Hagcrman has re-
ceived the following letter from
Senator Albert J.. Beveridge, writ
ten the day following the signing
of the joint statehood bill:
Washington, ID. c., June I'll.
Hon. Herbert ]. Hagerman, Gov
ernor of New Mexico, Santa
Fe, n. Nj.
The president has Just signed
the statehood bill, and the oppor-
tunity to enter the Union SO long
prayed for by New Mexico and
Arizona is before the people.
Through you, as governor OF one
Of these territories, | send my
hearty congratulations to the peo-
pie on the law which gives them
the privilege Of entering the Union.
1t is a privilege | know they will
eagerly seize. If rejected, the OPP
portunity for statehood will not
come again in probably fifty
years, and certainly not for a quar-
ter Of a century. No one a
doubt this who reads the history
of statehood bills that for half a
century have been fought for and
defeated. The committee Of which
| am chairman has struggled for
three years to give the priceless
boon Of statehood to New Mexico
and Arizona, Just as we struggled
to bestow the immortal gift on
Oklahoma and Indian Territory.
The people OF Oklahoma and In
dian Territory aided us and we
have secured them statehood In
conditionally, in spite of deter
mined opposition. We have Sc
cured statehood for New Mexico
and Arizona conditionally, and |
am sure that the people will de-
clare at the ballot box that as
Oklahoma and Indian Territory
with the enormous population of
each are to be one state, so New
Mexico and Arizona, with smaller
population, will be one state, and
it will he a state to be proud Of.
This new Arizona will be the peer
of California on her west, of Colo
RADIO on her north, of Oklaho-
ma on her east, and will instantly
take rank as one of the great Am
erican commonwealth, instead Of
remaining two territories for de-
cades, and then coming in as two
of the least influential OF states, or
as one state after all.
hope to welcome her senators
and representatives as members OF
the next congress.

Mir. A. E. Crepin of Patagonia, was at Tucson Friday and Satur- day of last week.
 Saturday of last week Mr. and Mrs. Frank Powers of the Worlds Fair mine, were at Tucson.
 Saturday last Mir. NJ. s. Rod gers, superintendent of the placer mines at Greaterville, returned from visit in California, and is now at the camp.
 It is reported that Mir. E. H. Evans has resigned the position of manager of the store of the Wash ington Trading Co.,. at Patagonia, and will locate at Phoenix.
 In Guajolote canyon, on the west side of the Patagonia noun tains Mir. J. H. Bennett is working on group of nine very promising copper prospects. There are nine claims, and they are known col. actively as the Mcdowell group. The two claims upon which the most work has been done are named the Mcdowell and the Mackey, and through them runs the widest ledge which is about fifteen feet in width, and shows good ores. Upon the Mackey there has been run tunnel eighty feet in length, and the Mcdowell has shaft 154 feet deep, with about sixty feet of drifts and cross cuts. With development the group is very apt to prove of great value.
 As a souvenir of the first ship ment of ore by the National Con- solidated Mining Company there has been presented to all the stockholders a Autographed fac simile of the check drawn by the Fl Paso Smelling Works in pay ment therefor. The amount is $99.1S, as stated in these colCms last week. There have been made also Autographed copies of the smelter returns. As shown there in the gold ores averaged $lS.50 per ton, and the lead ores $55.00 per ton. As the gold rock is free milling, and can be milled right on the premises at cost not ex- ceeding $2 per ton, the company will make arrangements for speedy erection of mill. The lead and copper ores will bear shipment, and will be sent to El Paso for the OreSent

MISSOURI DEAD LINE.

st. Louis Globe Democrat: Senator
Stone is warned by the Ray County
Review that he should "attend to his
own business" and not be seeking to
deprive Governor Folk of a share Of
the spot light when the curtain is
raised on the Bryan show in New
York. "As word of admonition to
the senator" says the Review, we will
say that he had better watch and not
step over the dead line too far" AS a
rank outsider the Globe-Democrat is
,!nadvised of the location of the dead
line in the internal democratic politics
of Missouri since the last election. But
such frequent reference is made to
mat line in tho controversies now rag.
ing between tbs organs Of the old ma
chine Snd those Of the new that its
latitude and longitude ought to be
marked on the map. AS matter of
fact, however, there is dead line iE
Missouri politics which several demo.
Gratis stepped ever two years ago next
November, and which all of Senator
Stones watchfulress and agility ara
not likely to save him from stepping
over soon.

F. w. SIMMONS INTERVIEWED.

Des Moines Capital.-"The fairness
Of the position taken by the
standpat republicans that the
state central committee Is the proper
body to hear all contests and protests
and make up a temporary roll of the
convention is beyond question:" said
Frank w. Simmons of Ottumwa. Mr..
Simmons is member of the Wapello
county delegation.
81 attended the conference at the
Slavery house Saturday morning of the
socalled standpat republicans, al
though the name plain republicans
suits me just as WE'LL" he said, "and I
was pleased to hear lifelong and able
republicans from different parts Of the
state express themselves with regard
to the coming convention as to how
the convention should proceed to or
ganize itself. I firmly believe that
there is no spirit Of unfairness in the
rank and file of the standpat republi.
cans. At least there was none ex.
pressed at the conference. / believe
that the state central committee, all
other propositions having been turned
down by the Cummins leaders, should
pAoSOSo W Li1hC uP q CCLIipoioAy iSAi
which shall make the organization OF
the convention. There are many rea
sons for this And it does not mean
that Mr.. Cummins may not be nom
mated, but it does mean that the we'll
established principles and theories and
practice for organization of republican
conventions should not be violated.
believe that the state central commit
tee has the same right to make up thai
roll as it had more than two months
ago to name Rev. Dr. Frisbie for chap
lain of the convention and to name
Judge Towner for temporary chair
man, and to name the secretaries Of
the convention. Not one word has
been said on the stump or in the press
against this action of the committee
and for the life Of me can not SEE
why the stop-thief cry should arise a
this time. AS l have said there is NJ
disposition to defeat Mr.. Cummins i
he has fair, rightful and just ma
jority Of even one vote in the conven
ton"

STAND PAT.

Stand pat, says the President
Stand pat, says Speaker Cannon.
Stand pat says Chairman Sherman.
Stand pat say all the Lincoln-Mc.
Kinley, Dingley republicans.
Stand pat for protection and for the
Dingley tariff is the slogan for the
campaign of 1906.
In conference at Oyster Bay, Mon
day, at which President Roosevelt pre-
sided and in which Speaker Cannon,
Chairman Sherman Of the republican
congressional committee participated
it was unanimously decided that in the
coming campaign the party will re-
main true to its historic policy in
favor of protection, that revision of
the Dingley tariff will not be advo-
cated-that republicans will stand
pat
In view of the fact that the Regis
ter has been steadfast in the advocacy
of this policy it is peculiarly crafty
ing to it's editor. There is to be no
half masting of the party banner but
until the closing Of the polls in No
vember 1t will be kept "full high ad-
vanced."
All honor to the president and the
great party leaders,
Iowa is republican state, 1t is a
Roosevelt state. Let the state conven-
tion adopt platform that will ring
true and clear-Marior Register.

CAMPAIGN IN ILLINOIS.

There is one place where the politi-
cal campaign in Illinois has an advan-
tago over Iowa, and that is the time
devoted to 1t this year. 1t has been
on about two weeks and the primaries
will be held August q. While it mas
been furious with feathers flying from
all of the cocks in the fight, there
has not been five months of caucuscS
and convention. All of the primaries
CT both parties will be held next Sat
u,day, and it will then be over.
Governor Yates has been trying to
win from Senator Cullom his senator
ial toga by playing the role of a re-
former Before the rate bill was pass
ed a part Of his speech was that he
wanted to go to the senate and sit by
La Toilette and vote with Roosevelt.
Since that time, however, he has not
mentioned the two SO closely togeth-
er.
Senator Cullom has his first defeat
to meet and it is not probable that it
will come at the hands of Richard

apparently dissatisfied, the handsome
