KNEW NOTHING ABOUTIT
 BUT 1T WAS ALL RIGHT
CeneralT. F. Wilson Concerning Join. tistS' Charge of Election Frauds.

Governor Kibbey yesterday received a reply from General T. F. Wilson to a communication sent him as presi- dent of the joint statehood league, en- closing a copy of the letter from the president relative to complaints re- ceived presumably from members Of the league that they would not be given a fair count in the election. General Wilson states that he is not the chairman of the league but he pro- ceeds as follows to express his views:
 Tucson, Ariz., Oct g. 1906. Hon. Joseph H. Kibbey. Governor of
 the Territory of Arizona. Phoenix,
 Arizona.
 Dear Sir: I am in receipt this morn ing of your favor of yesterday. ad- dressed to me as president or the Joint Statehood League. in which you quote a letter under date of the 2Oth of Sep tember last, addressed to you by the president, in which he states that grave charges have been made to him, that under the organization of which you are the active leader there will not be q fair count of the votes on the ques- ton of statehood, and in which the president directs that if you can in any way arrange it, that you have repre- sentatives of the statehood people pres ent at the canvassing of the votes on say-in substance-you must have the cooperation or the association of which I am president, and you further

state that you are anxious that there
 shall be at every polling place in the
 territory, if possible, a representative of those favOring statehood, and that the designation of such persons will, you assume, necessarily vest with the statehood league, and that you address your letter to me as the chief officer of the only joint statehood organiza- ton in the territory or which you have any Knowledge.
 While I assure you, governor, that I, and every member of the organization of which l am president. will most heartily cooperate with you in every way in our power to assist in carrying out the wishes of the president as ex- pressed in his letter to you. permit me to call your attention to the fact that the president directs you to do this work, and therefore. while we will gladly assist. you are the responsible person to whom the president has dele gated this duty as his chief represen- tative in this territory.
 In reply to your statement that you address your letter to me as the chief officer Of the only joint statehood or ganization in the territory Of which you have any knowledge. I have to say that you have overlooked the fact that d statehood convention was held in the opera house in PhOeniX-yOur home on the 17th of September last, com posed of many of the leading men of the territory, chiefly republicans: that a platform of principles was adopted, one resolution of which was the hearty endorsement of the administration of President Roosevelt in every particu- lar; that eX-Attorney General of the Territory Charles F. Ainsworth. was nominated as the statehood candidate for delegate to congress. and a terri torial committee appointed, of which O. D. M. Gaddis of Kingman is chair man and H. s.

NAVAJO BLANKE TS
BalKe's Big Curio's Stock the Biggest
 Ever Brought Here.

Announcement is made that the stock of Navajo blankets at Balke's Big Cu1io store has all been received. There were never before so many and such a great variety of Navajo blan- kets gathered together in the south west. Hitherto MT. Bake has had a great deal of trouble in keeping him self supplied with blankets and has had to make frequent purchases. This year he decided for two reasons to buy enough in the beginning. One reason was that they would be cheaper at the time of the purchase than they would ever be after that, and the other req son was that he could personally select the whole purchase instead of leaving the business to agents. These blankets have been selected with the greatest care from thousands of blankets which he inspected in remote parts of the Navajo reservation last summer. Blankets. as was long ago announced, are a little higher than they were but not nearly SO high as they will be q short time later.
 Blankets have been arriving at the Big CuriO store for some time but MT. Bake desired to make no mention Of it until all had come in, since many people in Phoenix were waiting until the SlOCk SnOulu come. 1neS are neIt now and those who come first will be given the first choice Of designs.
 Ample proof of the advantage or buying at the Big Curio store was fur nished by a single incident last week. Charles Ringing, the manager and one of the Ringing brothers, owners of the Forepaugh-S circus. called at the store and bought several hundred dollars worth of blankets and baskets. It was not a new thing for MT. Ring ling He said that he had bought sev- eral blankets a year before and that in all his travels he had found no other place where such good blankets could be bought for the money. Other mem bers of the circus also called and bought heavily.
 Mir. Ringling bought beside a large quantity of blankets and other curios for residents of the little town in Wis consin where he spends his winters.

The burst of disagreeable weather
which the people OF the Arkansas val
ley experienced last month was un-
usual and was more keenly felt on
that account than would otherwise
have been the case. Since then the
Temperature has settled down 10 In

ten days or two weeks has been all
that the most exacting could desire.
The climate of the Arkansas valley
during the fall and early winter
months is about the most delightful

opinion OF many people. the much
vaunted climate of Florida and Sou

NEW DEPOT FOR CANON
is NOW A CERTAINTY

Division Superintendent Rockwell
of the Denver and Rio Grande Rail-
road Company was up from Pueblo on
business matters few days ago. and
in the course of a conversation with
Agent H. 8. Maddox remarked that
the company had definitely decided up
on a new passenger station for Canon
City and would begin building opera
tons as soon as possible next spring.
Mr.. Rockwell says the present struc-
ture will be moved to another site
and used as freight depot The
proposed station will probably be built
OF pressed brick and will cost some
thing like $4,000.

Washington, Nov. 14.-There is in
tense interest in Washington in the re-
ports that the Japanese destroyer had
attacked and sunk two Russian naval
vessels at the seal fisheries. 1t is
known that there has been much
trouble in this region between the
Japanese and Russians, but the report
that the Japanese had sent a war
vessel there with authority to employ
force was considered rather startling
in view of the fact that there has also
been serious friction between the Japs
and Americans, and it might be only
step farther to the point of an at
tack on American vessels. 1t fs said
that no confirmation of the report has
been received in official circles.

CHURCH GOING
AHEAD WITH BUILDING

At meeting yesterday the Chris
tian church decided to go ahead with
its new church building If proper
prices could be had for the building.
A few months ago, when the matter
was up, the committee was delayed
on account OF finances. II is believed
that the original plans can now be
carried out.
The architects plans are in the
hands OF the building committee and
can be seen by any builder.
sContractors are invited to make es-
Inmates on these plans.
When completed the new Christian
church will be as neat and tasty as
any in the city, though not so large
as two or three OF the largest.
The location. corner Harrison and
7th, is as good as could be had.
