DEFENSE RESTS IN
PETTlBoNE CASE.

Boise, Dec. 31.-The defense rested
in the Pettibone case this morning
and offered to submit the case to the
jury without argument.
The illness of Pettibone, which Is
critical, had much to do with the de-
cision of the defense to submit the
case without argument.
Senator Borah stated that the ques-
tion could not be settled until the In
structions of the court to the jury had
been examined. Judge Wood said he
would have the instructions ready on
Thursday and court adjourned until
then. If Judge Wood holds 1t neces-
sary for the state to produce testimony
independent of Orchards confession to
connect Pettibone with the Steunen-
berg killing, there will be no argu.
ments.

Company after floods had repeatedly
washed out dams and canals. The Rec

dams and canals. In the Mesilla val

ed $50 feet of the $50 feet Penasco
diversion dam and headgates assuring
the Mesilla valley an ample supply of
water in ordinary years. The cost of
these works was 100000, and is but

The most significant fact in the his
tory of New Mexico during the past
year, has been the unexpected and
unprecedented influx of homeseek-
ers from Oklahoma, from Kansas, from
Iowa, from Missouri, and from other
states Of the Middle West and the
South. Not so much in the irrigated
river valleys br on the rain-supplied
higher Sierras, but on the dry mesas
Of eastern New Mexico have these
newcomers established their homes
and have demonstrated what was
deemed impossible, that to raise pay
ing crops without irrigation, is not
only feasible but entirely practical In
consequence, almost every available
quarter section in Quay, Torrance and
Roosevelt, in southern Union and San
ia Fe counties has been entered upon
and the number of homestead entries
during the present year at the four
land Offices in the Territory exceeded
10000, covering over 100000 acres or
as many as were made during any
five preceding years prior to 1906. OF
these almost one-half were made
at Clayton in northeastern New Mex
leo. The settlers upon this domain
have been raising crops for the past
three years, but especially during the
last year was ordinary dry farming a
pronounced success which promises
that during years Of drouth, scientific
dry farming will achieve results while
during ordinary years the old-time
farming methods will yield average
crops. Despite the large number Of
land entries there still remain sub
ject to entry in New Mexico fifty mil
lion acres Of public land.
What this influx of homeseekers
means in gain OF population and in
wealth can not be accurately determ-
ined although various estimates agree
that the gain Of population Of the ter
ritory during the past year has been
almost 100000 and that the total pop
ulation Of New Mexico is today near
the 100000 mark. One town after an.
other has sprung into existence, es-
pecially In eastern New Mexico, and
the number OF postoffices has increas-
ed from 322 on June 80, 1901, to 523
at the end Of this year, Of which one

NATIONAL HYMN IN DANGER?
G. A. r. Discovers Plot to Omit Anti
British Verse In Schools.

| An insidious plot to undermine the
patriotism of young America has been
discovered by certain members of the
Grand Army of the Republic. says the
New York Times. They have learned
that it is common thing in the public
schools of the metropolis to omit one of
the verses of 1.-THE Star Spangled Ban.
ner' and assert that this is done in a
spirit OF base trucking to the British
lion
The verse in question refers to the
most glorious memories of the Revoiu-
ton and speaks in terms of condemna-
ton OF King Georges troops. 1t runs:
And where is that band which SO vaunt-
ingly swore
That the havoc Of war and the battles
confusion
home and country should leave US no
more?
Their blood has washed out their foul
footsteps pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and
slave
From the terror of fight or the gloom
of the grave,
And the star spangled banner in triumph
doth wave
Ger the lard of the free and the home
Of the brave.
They ascribe the abandonment of the
verse to tie visit to this country of
Colonel Sir Howard Vincent of the
Queens Westn -nster volunteers. I'm
der the guise bf trying to strengthen
the bonds of friendship between Great
Britain and America he suggested the
mutilation of the congress ordained ma
tional anthem, the G. A. II. men say.
He asserted that in England in defer
ence to the less robust spirit Of the age
the second verse Of God Save the
King" with its pious allusion to the
"knavish tricks Of Britain's enemies,
is now universally omitted, and he
proposed that it would be as well not
to tear open the scars of 17IG every
time Americans wished to arouse their
natural love for their own country.
The omission Of the verse was taken
to heart in particular by William c.
Allen. the patriotic instructor CT the
G. *. Warren post, G. A. R.. of Brook
Ign, and he is endeavoring to form an
association for the protection of the
national anthem.
1t was rumored the other day that
before long the aldermen will be asked
to pass strong resolution upon the
subject and that the matter will be
brought before the board Of education.
Superintendent Maxwell denied that
there was an order of the board Of edu-
cation upon the subject. He said the
children only sing the first and last
verse of the hymn to save time. 1t
was optional with the teachers to omit
any verse.
