IN BILL BY VOTE OF I53TO98,
Statehood Bill Will Be Fayorably
Reported to Senate Monday---
Arizona Will Fight on Floor.

Washington, Jan. a6.-The first at
tempt at filibustcring at this session
occurred in the House today in a DEM
ocratic endeavor to defeat the provis-
ion of the urgent deficiency bill waiv-
li.S the S-hour law for foreign labor
ers on the Panama canal. The amend
ment was placed in the bill in COM
mittec of the whole after the House
had divided many times on every pre-
text which Minority Leader Williams
could make the cause Of a vote.
When the bill to which the amend
mcnt was proposed was finally finished
late in the day. a demand for a sep
arlte vote and roll call on the amend
ment was made and ordered, at which
time the House adjourned. The vote
Will occur as the first business tomor-
row.
The amendment was ruled out Of the
bill on point Of order on Tuesday, and
its insertion today was effected under
the provisions of a special rule brought
in from the rules committee for that
purpose a roll call was had on the
previous question on the rule which
was Il test vote and it was carried by
153 to IS.
The only other controversy of the
day resulted from an attempt to in
crease by $4,000 the amount for meat
inspection by the department of agri-
culture. This increase was refused af-
ter an animated debate in which
Chairman Tawney characterized the
movement as an attempt by the de-
partnCnt to coerce Congress into giving
more money than the secretary had es-
timated for. Those favoring the amend
mcnt did so, they stated. in the inter-
ests of the cattle industry of the coun-
try.
The House adjourned at $50 until to-
morrow.

Review Of the Candidates

A word here for our Republi-
can candidates is in order and
without dabbling in the taffy Of
stereotyped phrases we will make
a short review.
J. O. Dunn, our treasurer, is
plain everyday Farmer Dunn.
An officer of the people without
fear or favoritism. He is a pop
ular man with all classes, and
conducts the affairs Of the Treas
urer's Office just as the law di-
rects. He will be reelected by
q large majority.
Fl. Fl. Major, probate clerk
and ex-oflicio Recorder, is ca
pable Of filling any Office in the
gift of the people of Otero county.
Besides knowing how to fill his
Office he fills it to the letter, .
fact that can not be disputed.
Mr.. Major is also a member of
the bar and this gives him a le-
gal standing in Office so that his
advice is always valuable. AS
clerk Of commissioners court
his records and reports are just
as they should beabsOlutely
correct. What more could be
asked for? He will be re-elect-
ed again as an endorsement Of
his efficient work during first
term.
A. B. Phillips, our sheriff, was
the unanimous choice Of the con-
vention for candidate for re-elec-
tion. The Sheriff s Office il hard
to fill with perfect satisfaction
to all classes, but Mr.. PHILIPPE

COUNTRY
-
4 Rich Agricultural Section
Of OtsrO County Fast Becoming
Famous.


Between 90 and 100 miles
from Alamogordo in an easternly
direction, 10 miles from, Weed,
and Smiles from Avis there is q
section Of OterO county which is
fast becoming famous as an ag-
ricultural district. This section
is Known as the Pih6n country.
From 10 to 16 miles long and
from 10 to 15 miles wide the
land is Is fine as . crow ever
few over. A black soil, re-
sembling the famous black lands
of Texas, covered with q heavy
mat Of grass is now without an
equal on earth as stock or graz
ing section. But stock raising
is not the intention of the newly
hOmesteaders in that section.
The land is very productive and
is destined to be famous for
raising the finest apples in the
world, as weH as oats, barley,
corn, alfalfa, etc. That the soil
is especially adopted to the grow
ing Of apples has been proven by
apple experts who say that the
soil, climate, altitude and all
make the Pifi6n country without
an equal in the knowledge Of ap-
pie growers. Up until recently
this country was in the sole pos
essiOn Of the Sacramento black
tail deer, turkey and bear. Now
there is but little land left that
can be homesteaded SO fast was
it, taken mp when found by the
man with the hoe. !"
Every known section Of cOun-
try on the known world has its
drawbacks and the Pih6n coun-
try he's its disIikes. j. e., there
is nOIllnping water on it. Tanks
have to be built for stock water
and cisterns made for water for
family use. Rains sre usually
plentiful there and cisterns can
be supplied with rain water as
well as to I'LL tanks, and all this
is being done by the thrifty
farmers now located there.
Some how this section has
been settled ID By some Of the
best psopls 81 earth. For ex-

much to eat, Stranger, but we
are damned clever.'
A store and postoffice is soon
to be established, also school

The Pih6n country supports a
sufficient growth Of cedar and
pifi6n pine to furnish fire wood.
It's altitude is between 1900 and
5000 feet. It's summers are
mild and its winters are soften
ed by New Mexico's eternal sun
shine.
A few years ago a good man
ventured to settle on a home
stead right of this land. This
last spring he was offered 500
per acre for his home, but re-
fused. Within 10 more years

tion lands will be worth any
where up to 5000 an acre and the
country will be famous for its
happy and prosperous homes.

REPUBLICAN
CONVENTION
Held Here Last Saturday
And Nominated a Full Ticket.
And Nominated a Full Ticket.

Now the battle lines have
been drawn and both Democrats
and Republicans know where to
shoot, the only trouble being in
knowing how to shoot. Thanks
to the Republicans for a short
campaign. The Democrats hav-
ing started their ball rolling
way back yonder, SO long ago we
can't remember the date, and
by this time the Democratic
candidates have worn out their
shoes and talked themselves
hoarse. Now our dear people
will get a change in bill of fare
and change in diet will do us
all good. Our candidates will
meet you, shake your hand, mix
smiles, tobacco, and the like and
show you why the county off
cials should be retained in office
for the next two years. The
county Offices belong to the
people. No one of the Republi-
can ticket owns his office-he is
filling the Office for the county
as a public trust. Our present
officials have worked hard and
conscientiously for the good of
the county. They are for and of
Otero county first last and al
ways. They began a policy on
entering their present duties to
pull the county out of debt and
lower taxation as much as DOS
sible. They have succeeded ad-
mirably and will fulfill that
pledge by the end of two more
years. Again, this county does
not belong to any political party.
The Democrats may claim it but
their claims are all there is to
it. The Republicans don't
claim the county simply because
they know that the present Re-
publican county officials were
elected by vote of the people.
To make a true and efficient
officer is all that can be expect
ed of any man, and our people
are a liberal minded and
square deal" kind, and we are
to lay the case before
them.
The following proceedings were
had at the convention, as taken
