New Mexico is going to make a
strong bid for statehood at the COM
ing session on congress, n Republi-
can National Committeeman Solomon
Luna, who was in Washington TO con-
fer with the president, thinks that the
territory and also Arizona will win
the fight.
Neither New Mexico nor Arizona
will maintain a strong lobby as was
the case in the last congress, when, it
was said, the chances Of the two ter
ritories We're largely prejudiced on
that account. President Taft has
promised to recommend the granting
of statehood in his message to con
gress.
"The president is favorable to state
hood" said Mr.. Luna. HE promised
the people of New Mexico in a speech
at Albuquerque that he would recon-
mend statehood and work for it, and
we are depending largely upon that
promise for success.
II don't know what attitude Sena-
tor Beveridge will assume when the
statehood question ome up, but ]
hope it will be more favorable than
heretofore.
1--WE believe that New Mexico is fit
for statehood at this time. The pop
ulation of our territory is upward of
400, 600, and there is no state in the
Union hat is spending more money
for education than is the territory of
New Mexico. We have four large
higher educational institutions-the
Territorial University at Albuquerque;
a military institute at Roswell; a
School of Mines at Socorro, and an
Agricultural College at Mesilla Park.
besides three normal schools in other
parts of the territory.
'.All of these institutions are filled
to their capacity, and we shall have
to enlarge them to make room for
those who are waiting to enter.
There is no better place in this
country for young men TO go, New
Mexico has many undeveloped re-
sources and so soon as We get the
capital and statehood New Mexico will
be one of the great sections of this
country"

CITY COUNCIL TO
 DISCUSS MERGER

Chattanooga, July 1.0Special.)-It Is understood that meeting of the judiciary committee of the upper board of the city council will be called for the latter part of this week for the purpose of consid- ering the resolution giving the council s consent to the merger of the Chattanooga Railway company and the Chattanooga Electric company A number of amend ments to the charter will be proposed by the committee and several of them will be incorporated in it. Attorneys for both of the companies have agreed to pro- posal of Aldermen Weidner, who wants the companies to promise that they will never combine with the lock and dam company. A peculiar feature of the sit uation is that the merger of the com panies is complete to all practical pur- poses, notwithstanding the fact that the council is still deliberating as to whether they shall permit it or not. In fact, it is by no means certain that it was neces- sary even to ask the opinion of the coun- cil. The officials of the two companies did so through courtesy, although they will not admit, of course. that such is the case.

PAYROLL PUT ON
 PER DIEM BASIS

Washington, July L-About 2O00 em- ployes at the bureau of engraving and printing were today shifted from the monthly pay roll to the per diem basis. This was done by Secretary of the Treas ury MacVeagh and Director Ralph. with view to putting the bureau on moro strictly business system.
 Hereafter each of the 2O00 employees must give a full days work for a full days pay or be 'docked" accordingly. The practice has been to deduct any lost time from the annual leave of 30 days. or the sick lease of 30 days. Thirty days annual leave and 30 days sick leave will be continued.
 The pressmen criticise the new order as "cheap factory methods" They fear it will affect their tenure and that they will not be able to get In full time. thus materially reducing their incomes.
 Director Ralph believes that the change will aid materially in keeping the time and the bureau will be able now to recom- pense employees for working overtime.

EFFORT TO SECURE
 PASSES ON CARS

Atlanta, July 1.-(Special.) )-Another ef- fort will be made at the present session of the general assembly to procure for policemen and fremen in the cities of the state the privilege of riding free of charge on the street cars.
 It will be recalled that the last legis- lature passed a measure of this kind, but it was vetoed by Governor Smith because he thought the privilege should be procured through the city council by contract with the street car company.
 The bill will be introduced by Messrs Slade and Wohlwonder of Muscogee and McMahon and Clarke, and it is thought there will be no question as to it's pas sage. While Governor Browns attitude is not definitely known, it is not thought that he would veto such a measure
 Mr. Slade of Muscogee is also prepar- ing to introduce a bill providing for the more general and specific posting of lands throughout the state with a view to keep ing unauthorized parties off private premises.

HARPER DID NOT
 SECURE PARDON

Atlanta, July Especial )-Govern- or Smith did not have an opportunity ow granting executive elemeney in the case of John Harper, the condemned murderer of Sheriff Ben Keith of Mur- ray county, unless he had done so with out report from the prison commission, and at time when no date had been set for Harpers execution.
 While the prison commission heard argument in Harpers case this week, it made no report and will not do so until after the court has again set tn e date for Harper's execution. Murray superior court will not meet until Au- gust, and the execution will therefore have to be fixed for some date in Sep tember.
 The prison commission will not on this account, make it's report until sorae time the latter part of August. It is stated at the office of the com mission also that the case is one of such importance that a full board is desired to pass upon it. Chairman Joseph s. Turner has been i'll at his home in Eatonton for some time, though he is rapidly improving and the business of the office is being trans acted by Commissioners Clement A. Evans and Wiley Williams.
 Harper was to have been hanged in June, 190S but secured several re- spites in order to give the court fur ther time to pass upon his case. There was talk once of carrying it to the su- preme court of the United States, but this course was abandoned.
 Harper will now have to take his chances with Governor Brown, an un- known quantity when 1t comes to par don matters Governor Smith was easy in this respect, but Harper's case did not shape up in time for him to act

New York. July L-General Bingham had nothing to say tonight about his plans for the future
 "I am now has-been,' he said smil- ingly.
 Today's climax of the Bngham-D Duffy controversy has brought forward into the political limelight Supreme Court Justice William J. Gaynor, who called the Duffy case to Mayor McClellan's attention in a series of scathing letters, in which he attacked General Bingham's administra- ton of police affairs. Justice Gaynor has for several weeks been mentioned prom inently as a possible candidate for the mayoralty to succeed MT. Mcclellan. His comment on the result of the fight against General Bingham was:
 This case is only the beginning of the restoration of free government to New York city. There Is no place under our political system for the autocrat."
