ION of Peace Conference Of tho Five

WASHINGTON,

Port Barrios, Guatemala, Dec. II. -
A small cloud on the horizon of the
present peace conference of the five
Central American republics at Wash
ington, has developed at Guatemala
thru the suspicious Of agreements AL
legged to have been made at a recent
conference of representatives of MIC
aragua, Honduras, and Salvador. The
meeting was held prior to the Wash
ington conference, and was ostensiEly
to reassure the United States and
Mexico that the disputes between tho
three republics reported, had been set
tied. Guatemala was not represented
at this preliminary conference. 1t is
now stated on good authority, that
President Cabrera, of Guatemala, was
offended because his government was
not represented, and that he believes
when all fire republics had named en-
voys to Washington, it was not ad-
missible for three of them to enter into
what appear to have been private
agreements.

Among recent visitors at Esper. anza were Messrs. r. E. Tanner and W. N Chamberlain, both of Centralia, Indian Territory. Mir. Tanner has had long experience as breeder of fine stock; MT. Cham berlain is a contractor. Both were shown over a small portion of the lands of the Richardson Construc- tion Company in the Valley and returned to Esperanza about the first of the month thoroughly en- unused over the certain future for this country. Among their friends in Indian Territory there are about twenty families ready to come at once to settle on small farms in the valley as soon as they can be accommodated with water. Judg- ing from the remarks made by MT. Tanner, who with Mir.

STATEHOOD LEAGUE.

organized last year in behalf of the movement for statehood that was under consideration by the people of Arizona at that time:
 The executive committee of the Statehood League of Arizona, in behalf of the sincere advocates of statehood, has unanimously adopt ed the following appeal to the pa tiotic friends of self-government for Arizona:
 For more than a quarter of century the people of Arizona have justly been entitled to the right of self-government, by the admission of Arizona into the union as a state, and large majority of the inhabitants of the territory have honestly and persistently appealed to congress to pass an enabling act under which the territory could be- come state, and the inhabitants thereof be released from territorial subordination, and endowed with all the rights of self-government and representation in both branches of the congress of the United States, such as is enjoyed by all the citi- zens of all the states of the federal government.
 These patriotic and persistent ef- forts of the people to obtain such an enabling act were unfortunately without avail, until congress pass ed an act providing for the union of Arizona and New Mexico into a state, conditional upon the ap- proval of majority of the people of both territories. At the time this act was submitted to a vote it was believed by large number of the sincere friends of statehood in Arizona that separate statehood could not be obtained, and that it was wise to secure statehood on the best terms offered.
 To this end the Statehood League of Arizona was organized, to secure if possible majority of votes in favor of uniting the two territories into state. A majority of votes having been cast against the meas ure the members of the Statehood League promptly acquiesced in the will of the people, as all patriotic and liberty loving people should.
 Conditions, however, have altered, and there is an apparent possi- bility of securing single statehood for Arizona, if the sincere friends of statehood will use every effort in their power to obtain passage of an enabling act for Arizona alone.
 The Statehood League of Arizona therefore appeals to the patriotic and sincere friends of statehood throughout the territory, irrespec- tive of party or their former views, as to the best means of securing statehood, to unite in combined and persistent effort, by at once forming organizations in every town, city and county in the terri tory, and using every means in their power to urge the question persistently on the attention of the president and congress, pledging themselves not to relax their efforts until Arizona has become com monwealth among the sister states of the republic.
 By the Executive Committee Statehood League of Arizona.
