E.as the good fortune of the
<NAL man together with sew
-Cai other Mathews gentlemen to
atterd the first day of the Middle
sex Court at Saluda on Monday
and to there mingle with his ma
ny. friends and acquaintances Of
the several counties. The
crowd present was a compare
lively small one. numbers of the
farmers being too busy to attend.
Immediately after dinner the
courthouse was filled by crowd
(tnany ladies being included anx-
jous to hear the different speakers
who were expected to address
them. DR.. w. D. Christian, Of
Urbanna. introduced as the first
speaker, of the day Hon. Harry
St. George Tucker. Mr.. Tucker
spoke as Ishis wonteloquently and
was frequently applauded. His
keen sallies assisted by his re-
Iuarkab bic facial contortions caused
irequent laughter evan the good
Mann men present joining in. He
declared his advocacy of Local
option, good roads. good schools
and a board of bank examiners
and his opposition to prohibition.
He paid considerable attention to
the public record of Judge Mann
criticizins his action upon several
occasions. He declared that
his nomination was assured
and was given a round of applause
at the conclusion of his speech.
Mr.. Evans next addressed the
audience in a strong speech III
which he laid before the voters
his record in the Legislature and
asked for the support of all who
approved of his course while
there.
He was followed by Mr.. ]. T.
Christian in short but eloquent
speech in which he too made a
strong plea for the nomination,
declaring that his experience in
matters which are of gr -at i'm
portance to the people of this
district especially fitted him to
represent them. He laid down
his platform in a plain, straight,
forward way and asked for the
support of Middlesex in the COM
ing primary. He was we'll APP
plauded at the conclusion of his
speech.
Mr. r. L. McCready was next
introduced and he proceeded to
outline the platform upon which
he stood and to make a plea for
thesupport of Middlesex. promising
inIevent- of election to serve them
faithfully in the legislature. The
speeches of the legislative candi-
dates were all necessarily cut
short on account of the lateness
of the hour.

The passing OF the anti-gamling
law has put a damper on allcard
games in Winslow. The Santa
Fe Reading Room has lost some
of it's popularity as playing for
cigars comes under the ban OF
the law the same as poker or
any game of chance. However,
it will be but short time until
somebody devises ways and
means of making the other fellow
pay for the cigars, regardless of
the anti-gamlIng law.

Statehood Defeated

The Statehood bill for the adj
mission of Arizona and New
Mexico has been turned down
hv the Senate committee on ter
ritories, mainly by the efforts OF
Senators Beveridge and Aldrich,
who have been at all times un-
eompromisingly opposed to the
admission of these territories.
While it has been claimed that a
majority of the Senator's and
Representatives were III favor OF
the bill, yet the actions OF these
two Senators was sufficient to
prevent the bill even being al
lowed to come to Il vote. the
committee on territories, OF
which Be> eridge is chairman,
failing to report the measure
back to the Senate in time tor
action before adjournment. At
the last meeting of this commit
tee, charges of graft, illegal vot-
ing, herding of illiterate Mexican
votes and other irregularities III
New Mexico were brought forth
and by this mears all hopes for
the passage of the bill were
squelched. From present indica-
tions, there is no hope of either
territory being admitted until
after the next census has been
completed.
We hope our republican friends
have Il good excuse to offer, as
we were assured that the election
of Cameron was the only thing
necessary to bring us admission
into the Union with new star
on the flag for Arizona.
