THE CHANGEABLE MR.. sIBLEY.


The Hon. Joseph Sibley, a manufac-

mems Association and incidentally a
member of congress, was IN Albuquer-
que the other day The Albuquerque
Citizen, one of those newspapers in
capable of distinguishing living issues
from the dead extracted an interview
from Mr.. Sibley on the subject Of
joint statehood. Mr.. SibIey, to use a
technical expression, employed by
dairymen gave down" freely to the
extent of a couple of columns on the
subject of joint statehood.
Mr.. SibIey stated, as we recall very
well. that one time he was in favor
of single statehood. He took the
ground then with Senator Quay that
both Arizona and New Mexico were
entitled by right to admission as sep
arate states. He does not advance in
support of his change of Views tha;
either or both of the territories have
refrigerated nor does he explain by
what process they have lost right
they had two years ago.
Before proceeding further we may
remark that Mr.. Sibley is not as the

has always been more or less affect
ed by environment His views upon
any subject have been hardly less sta
bic than the coIors Of the chameleon.

troubled waters. He received a few
votes for the nomination for president
and a large number of votes as run
ming mate for Mr.. Bryan.
Four years later Mr.. Sibley became
republican and has since been a mem
Der of congress from a republican dis
trict. In 1900 he was frightened out
of his party by the silver heresy, yet
he would have accepted a nomination
as candidate for vice president four
years earlier. He would have endur-

he eagerly put forth his hand for the

historical facts only to illustrate that
