ted at the same Hme. Mr. Catron
said that it is unlikely that Smith will
be able to influence the Democratic
members Of Congress TO oppose state
hood for New Mexico on those grounds
for the admission of New Mexico
would vastly increase the chances for
the admission in the near future of
Arizona. He gave Secretary Of the In.
terror Garfield the credit for bringing
President Roosevelt around to favor
single statehood for New Mexico and
repeated, that the people of New Mex.
leo must organize and through organ
izaton, devise ways, manners and
means to attain the desired object.
Colonel George W. Prichard moved
that the meeting resolve itself into a
Santa Fe County Statehood League.
This motion was adopted without op
position.
Upon motion it was resolved to hold
another mass meeting on Friday ev.
ening of next week at 1880 O'Clock,
when steps will be perfected for the
formal organization of the Statehood
League.
W. 3. chiders Heartily in Favor Of
Proposition.
w. B. Childers, of Albuquerque,
was asked by the chairman for an ex.
preston of opinion and in response he
said that present conditions in New
Mexico are intolerabe; have been
growing more intolerable every day
He pledged the fullest cooperation Of
every party and of every faction in
Bernalillo county in the statehood
movement. While he had fought the
adoption of a constitution in 1890, he
now regrets that fact although there
was abundant reason at that time for
his position. He also maintained that
the statehood fight had its good effect
land that it brought about conditions
|auspicious for single statehood.
Hon. H. O. Bursum. chairman of the
Republican territorial central commit
tee, was then called upon and his re-
marks were to the point and were
freely applauded He said that we can
afford to sacrifice almost anything in
order to obtain statehood. How to OBJ
tain it at present seems mostly mat
ter of organization and detail We
must have harmonious action on the
part Of the people. If we go to Wash
ington divided we can not succeed
Many Republicans thought it the part
of wisdom to do as most other states
have done before admission, formulate
a constitution and with it in hand seek
admission, but as there has been some
opposition to calling together the dele
gates elected last year for the pur.
pose Of formulating a constitution, es-
pecially from the Democrats who de-
| sired another chance at an election Of
delegates, he was willing to waive this
matter. But the statehood movement
must come from the people; 1t should
not be manipulated by political lead
ers; it requires thorough organization,
and public sentiment on the question
must be aroused to its highest pitch.
He then discussed in practical way
the desirability and the advantages OF
statehood and representation in Con.
gress. Mr.. Bursum concluded by say
ing that while the statehood move
ment necessarily is political one, yet,
the object to be obtained first is state.

An American seated alone at the

was accosted in his native language

The American examined the purse

left the purse with him, saying they

cut and the election of the senators of that state.
 Mir MaeFarland paid his respects to both railroads, and said that what the New Haven had done in Connecticut the Boston and Maine had also done in New Hampshire,
 MT Brown referred to what he con- sidered the political power yielded by large corporations.
 The hearing took a wide range. The recent speech of President Roosevelt at Indianapolis was quoted and endorsed by Senator Vahey.
 Shortly before the close of the hear ing one of the speakers, A. P, Edgerly of Boston, in opposing the merger, sug- gested that the remedy for better ser- vice and fair treatment was for the state to cancel, condemn and take over 51 per cent of the stock of the Boston and Maine and allow any other com pany, such as the New Haven to have 49 per cent. The state would then reap the benefit.
 How much would such a plan cost the state?" was asked.
 Just the indebtedness, $97OOO per mile,'' was Mir. Edgerly's reply.
 The hearing will be continued to- morrow and the committee hopes that one day will suffice to take testimony and hear arguments.
