EXHIBITION DRILL
Number A

As per announcement the first of the regular monthly Exhibition Drills was given by the Williams Cadet Corps at the opera house last Monday evening.
 Attired in their neat khaki uniforms, and with their glistening Carbines on their right shoulder, the Cadets presented very mili- tary appearance.
 A few moments before the appointed hour for the drill to commence, the Cadets assembled in the street, and lead by "Old Glory," entered the hall. and the sight of our dear old flag being triumphantly borne by young America" elicited a spontaneous outburst of applause from large patriotic audience. s.: After executing company. for mation, preparatory to: the drill, Rev. David Roberts, chaplain of the Corps, delivered an interesting address to the assemblage. during which he spoke of the good work that has been and wili.b accom- plished by the Cadets. and at the close of his remarks was heartily encored.
 When we take into consideration P the fact that up to few weeks ago the Cadets knew little or nothing of drilling or military tactics. we will say they done remarkably we'll. and that their efforts were appreciated by the l,e"pIe who attended the drlll was demonstrated by the applause they received. But few mistakes were made, and the boys will do better next time. They will be taught new movements and their organization will be raised to the. highest standard. :,Immediately after the esdrill, taps was. sounded by Musician Frank Dubois, and the Cadets and their young lady friends then repaired to fhe banquet hall where a very delicious collation awaited them.
 The Cadet Corps is encouraged and has the support ofthe entire community. and have received a request from the public for another exhibition drill. Qnite a number of boys have made application for membership, which will be con- sidered.

Jacob Salzman vs. Curt Stock

Jacob Salzman vs. Curt Stock man was dismissed.
 During the term but little of the time of the court was, as usually has been, devoted to the Railway, Cameron cases. so the other busi- ness was we'll disposed of.
 The recent law regarding the trail, has changed the situation as to future litigation on this matter.
 Cameron, at the last meeting of the board of supervisors. under this law, put in bid for the trail, and offered to pay the county 10 per cent. of the receipts, and Mir. Brant put in a bid, offering the county 70 per cent. thereof, with Babbitt Brothers IS sureities. Un- der this last bid the county could receive about $7,000 each year to go into it's treasury. The supervi- sors have not as yet taken any ac ton upon this matter, but when taken it will vitally affect the Fer rall case above mentioned.

NO STATEHOOD LEGISLATION.

In a recent conversation with Delegate Andrews. President Roose- welt made the statement that it would be some time before there would be any statehood legislation and that New Mexico would prob ably remain out of the union until Arizona changed its mind and asked that a joint state be created A few days later Senator Beveridge in response to an inquiry by a re- porter concerning the possibility of single statehood for the two terri tories, said:
 Until the two territories agree to joint statehood it will be many years before single statehood for each will be brought about. It certainly will not come so long as Roosevelt is president, Cannon is speaker and l am chairman of the senate committee on territories"
 These statements are really the official announcement of the re- publican party that a new state will not be created until a safe re- publican state can be made. The analysis of this statement shows that there is republican presi dent, a republican senate and a re publican congress that must be overthrown by a mighty uphea val on the part of the people and even if Bryan and the lower house are carried at the 1908 election there will still be enough holdover sena- tors to defeat action until another election.
 If we must depend on an election four years of the prospect of single statehood before sundown is, to say the least. not very roseate At the sa me time, it is far better to re- main a territory forever than to turn our affairs over to the for eign voters of New Mexico.
 But there is many slip between the scheme of the politician and its achievement. Possibly there will he enough free men in congress tc vote the two territories into the union over the protests of the three gentlemen who are getting so big that they cannot hit the ground with their plug hats. The politi clans of New Mexico should take this view of the situation under consideration and while they are considering it they should remem- Der that joint statehood with New Mexico will always be voted dowr in this territory, and that theil only hope is to fight for single statehood until they get it.
 Apropos, 1t is stated that south ern California now wants to cu' loose from the north and join with Arizona in a new state. This however, is another Utopian dream Arizona is for Arizona and Arizona alone, and would almost as soon be stuck onto New Mexico as tC California.-Gazette.
