NAVAJO RESERVATION AND
FOREST RESERVES REDUCED

Not the least Important Of the
concessions which have been made
during our stay in Washington have
been the agreements in regard to the
Navajo reservation and certain pro-
posed extensions Of forest reserves.
Nearly two million acres of land had
been withdrawn in northwest New
Mexico for proposed addition to the
Navajo Indian reservations 1t has
now been agreed that practically all
Of this land shall be restored to the
public domain so soon as certain lands
therein now being occupied by the In
dians shall have been allotted.
In addition more than million
acres of the public domain had been
withdrawn for proposed additions to
forest reserves in New Mexico. Much
Of this land will be restored to entry
while the portion which viii be add
ed to the reserves is paratiVely
small This matter will not be fin
ally closed until the meeting Of the
irrigation congress, when Hon. Gift
ford PnichOt. the chief forester, will
be IN Albuquerque, and will hold
public hearings at which all the pro-
posed additions to forest reserves
will be consideed and determined
upon, it being the disposition Of the
chief forester to make sucn additions
only where absolutely necessary, and
where private interests viii suffer as
little as possible"

now all point to Secretary Taft as
the republican nominee. His friends
and supporters claim that SECRETARY
Taft viii be nominated on the FIRST
ballot while there is a general dispo-
sttion to admit on all sides that he
will be nominated on the second bal
lot. after the favorite son vote has
been taken"
Mr. Luna says that Governor cur
ry, who remained in Washington to
close up several matters before the
departments will leave Tuesday next
for New Mexico. He viii visit his old
home in New Orleans before return
ing, and will probably not arrive in
Santa Fe before the first OF next
week.
The visit Of the governor and Mr..
Luna TO Washington has produced
some very definite results, and their
activity has attracted more attention
to New Mexico Of the right kind than
any effort OF the kind in recent
years.

MARKED CHANGE OF SENTIMENT
APPARENT TOWARD NEW MEXICO
Vexng Timber Land Matter, Raised by Fight on agerman
Has Been Adjusted; Lands Withdrawn for Navajo ReSer
vation Will Be Restored While Prospect Good That Ma
tiona Aid for Irrigation Congress viii Be Forthcoming.

I tory adjustment Of several other very
( important matters, 1t should be said
in passing that Speaker Cannon has
agreed to appoint committee to visit
New Mexico during the recess, and
the report Of this committee is certain
to be favorable to statehood as well
as to other matters in which the in
! terests of the people Of New Mexico
are at stake.
The presence Of Governor Curry
in Washington during the past few
weeks has been Of greatest value to
the territory, and to the things we
have been trying to do. The COVER
nor has worked indefatigably before
the departments and everywhere
where work was to be done. and his
efforts have counted materially. One
Of the most important things we have
succeeded in doing has been the
bringing about of an agreement and
compromise on the suits known as the
territorial timber land suits. The ad-
ministration, President Roosevelt, the
department of justice and the depart
mcnt ot the interior have approved
the bill which has been introduced
for this adjustment of very VeXng
matter The bill has been favorably
reported by the house committee. and
its passage is assured by agreement.
BY this agreement the corporations
and individuals purchasing timber
lands from the territory agree to
turn back the lands within forest re-
serves, the territory receiving lieu

American torpedo boat hotilla arriv-
ed here today from Puerto Mont.
taking in all about six and half
days for the passage from Punts
Arenas through the Magellan strait,
Smith Channel and the inner chan
nels to this port
The battleshp fleet passed out from
Cape Pillar about 1880 on the evening
of February 8, making the voyage
from Putna Arenas in twenty and a
half hours. Commander Rosas of the
Chilean navy, was aboard the torpedo
boat destroyer Whipple, the flagship
Of the flotilIa, and the little vessels
kept along with the battleshps, which
stained at ten knots an hour. Not
once did the vessels slow down and
the navigation Of the dangerous wat
ters was completed without difficulty.
Strong west winds were experienced
to the English reach and light winds
and rain to Smith channel, az the en-
trance of which the destroyers parted
company with their big brothers. A
slight accident to the destroyer Law
renee happened off Cape Holland. but
this soon was remedied and the Law
renee overhaued the others OF the
days for the passage from Puntas
channel in company with the hotilla.
In the voyage through the inner pas
sage anchorages were found in Mayne
channel, Melinuex sound, Port Quellin
and Laguna bay

AGREEMENT TO WITHDRAW
MAnE MANY ERILN DS

"When We arrived i'm Washington
said Mr.. Luna. eve found that there
was very resolute opposition to the
consideration of any Kind Of a state
hood bin at this session, Govern pr
Curry had gone on prepared to m@&c
an active and aggressive fight .u
found almost Immediately that tr
make it would result in oppOsii lN
and possible alienation Of some Of
our friends Then the assurances Of
friendship for New Mexico began to
come in; We were told that it was
unwiso to start fight of any kind
before this congress. because of po-
litical conditions, and were assured Of
support on every hand at the next
session if our fight could be with
drawn at this one, ! believe that we
will have the support Of almost every
one in the government from President
Roosevelt down, for the New Mexico
bill at the shori session Of the
hearty support Of the president we
are assured. although he agreed with
leaders in congress that it would be
better to postpone the fight until the
short session. Senator Beveridge
chairman Of the senate committee on
territories, has agreed to report the
enabling act at once, while the oppo-
sition Of Speaker Cannon in the house,
which would have prevented the sue
cess Of any bill at the present session,
will be withdrawn when our bill
comes up next winter. We know that
we have a large majority in both
houses of congress, and there Is every
reason to believe that the New Mex
leo statehood bill will pass next win
ter without any opposition from any
one
our action in Withdrawing our
claims at this session has undoubted-
l} made friends for the territory. In
fact one finds few enemies of New
Mexico in Washington just now.
There has been most gratifying
change Of sentiment on every hand.
This is, of course, due in large meas
urc to the increased population Of the
territory and the strengthening of
our claims. But the friendly attitude
OF official Washington is apparent on
every hand, and Of this the very fair
report Of Secretary Garfield is but
one evidence The fact is that New
Mexico is ready for statehood and the
time has come when our rights can
no longer be ignored. Statehood at
the short session of congress seems
absolutely sure.
