MUST HAVE CAMPAIGN FUND TO
GET STATEHOOD BILL
THROUGH CONGRESS.

]. NJ. Hervey returned on the auto
yesterday from Santa Fe, where he
was called on business and to attend
the Governors statehood convention
held on Saturday last. He gives an
interesting report of the meeting. Said
Mr.. Heryey today:
'"The meeting was a great success
in every way. The great hall in the
territorial capitol building used by
the House of Representatives. was
packed to the very doors, and every
section of the territory was represent
ed in the audience. The great work
of the body was to adopt plans where
by a united effort is to be made to
secure statehood.
Every man who returns from Wash
ington reports that If an organized
effort is made in New Mexico for
statehood. upon which work at Wash
ington can be based. what little oppo
sition there is among the national leg

and private citizen who has gone to

Washington within the past few
months. So all We need to do is tC
organize and snow that we are in ear
! nest and mean business.
%It was decided at Saturdays meet
ing that the burning question was to
devise ways and means to support
and maintain committee of tea oi
twelve men in Washington, where
they can work for statehood all the
time. The only way to. do this is by
need right now is money. 1t has to
come, and it will take lots of it. The
committee does not want to be limit,
ed so they cannot be able to entertain
men if they find it necessary, no mat.
ter what the cost Oklahoma was the
moving power that secured the joint
statehood bill. They raised $150,00O
to be used in securing statehood and
maintained such a committee, and
thus the passage of the joint state
hood bill was secured. New Mexico
did very little toward securing the
passage of that bill. But it is just
such methods that New Mexico will
have to follow now if we want an en-
abling act for single statehood pass
ed at this session. And the committee
will probably be needed there within
the next thirty or forty days. Some
thing must be done at once.
'At the Saturday meeting commit
tee was appointed to cooperate with
where such organizations exist, in rails
ing a fund for this purpose. Will Pra-
ger is Chaves cou1ty's member of
this committee 1t will be his duty to
cooperate with the county statehood
association in raising money for the
maintenance of this committee.
In the selection of the committee
that is to be sent to Washington only
to spend money to make it go the
farthest and how to work among men,
men who will hold the confidence of
the people at home and inspire conf
dence in the men at the national cap
ital will be considered. 1t is a strict
ly business proposition, and if the
people want statehood now is the
time to get it and this is the way.
They will have to give down the cash,
and give literally

MR.. CLANCY MAY NOT

sence of any announcement from any
authoritative source, it is still unknown
whether or not District Attorney F.
w. Clancy. of Albuquerque, will ac-
cept the position of attorney general
of New Mexico, offered to him last
week by Governor Curry. The general
impression here tonight, however is
that Mr. Clancy will not accept the
position 1t is we'll known that Gov
ernor> Curry has been very anxious
to have Mr.. Clancy take the position
and that the appointment would have
circles and throughout the territory.
Mr. Clancy has been here much of the
time during the past week. and has
had several conferences with the gov
erno- at which the matter has been
carefully gone over. 1t may be said
that a thorough understanding exists
between the governor and Mr.. Clan
cy, aad while the district attorney has
made absolutely no statement of the
causes guiding his action, the impress
sion is that local conditions in Berna-
lilo county have much weight in de
termining the result
In the meantime the names of a
number of well known New Mexico
lawyers are being mentioned about
the capital as possible successors to
Judge A. B. Fall. among them being
the name of Mr. James NJ. Hervey, OF

soon to be sent to the house, Speaker
Cannon read the following telegram
from Oklahoma:

the Presidents message. 1t was laid
before the house, and its reading be-
gun by the clerk, printed copies being

1t is said that a number of persons
prominent in the Durango district
who are already under indictment for
land frauds will be forced to defend
themselves against the charge of hav-
ing prompted the killing of the feder-

involved in the actual shooting are
mere dupes of certain wealthy and
influential citizens who feared that
Walker had evidence against them in
connection with land frauds.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The president in his message to con-
gress says:
No nation has greater resources than
ours, and l think it can be truthfully
said that the citizens of no nation pos
sess greater energy and Industrial abil-
tty. In no nation are the fundamental
business conditions sounder than in
ours at this very moment, and it is
foolish when such is the case for peo-
it in sound banks, for it is such hoard
Ing that is the immediate occasion of
money stringency. Moreover as a
rule, the business of our people is con-
Quoted with honesty and probity and
this applies alike to farms and fac
our legitimate commercial enterprises.
In any large body of men, however,
there are certain to be some who are
dishonest, and If the conditions are
such that these men prosper or commit
their misdeeds with impunfty their
community. Where these men are
business men of grea- sagacity and o.
temperament both INSCRIPTIONS and
reckless, an.l where the conditions are
such that they act without supervision
or control and at first without effective
check from public opinion, they delude
many innocent people into making in
vestmentS or embarking in kinds of
business that are really unsound When
the misdeeds of these successfully dis
honest men are discovered, suffering
comes not only upon them, but upon
the innocent whom they have misled-
1t is a painful awakening, whenever it
occurs, and naturally when 1t does oc-
cur those who suffer are apt to forget
that the longer 1t was deferred the
more painful 1t would be. In the effort
to punish the guilty it is both wise and
proper to .endeavor so far as possible
to minimize the distress of those who
have been misled by the guilty. Yet it
is not possible to refrain because of
such distress from striving to put an
end to the misdeeds that are the ulti-
mate causes of the suffering and. as a
means to this end, where possible to
punish those responsible for them.
There may be honest differences of
opinion as to many governmental poll
cies, but surely there can be no such
differences as to the need of unf1inch-
ing perseverance in the war against
successful dishonesty.
Interstate Commerce.
No small part of the trouble that we
have comes from carrying to an ex-
treme the national virtue of self reli-
ance, of independence in initiative
and action. 1t Is wise to conserve this
virtue and to provide for its fullest
exercise compatible with seeing that
liberty does not become a liberty to
wrong others. Unfortunately this is
the kind of liberty that the lack of all
effective regulation inevitably breeds
The founders of the constitution pro-
vided that the national government
should have complete and sole control
of interstate commerce There was
then practically no interstate business
save such as was conducted by water.
and this the national government al
once proceeded to regulate In thorough.
going and effective fashion. Conditions
