PRESIDENT RETURNS
TO WASHINGTON
Congressional Program This Week
Includes Consideration of State
hood for Territories.

mood TOR Territories.
Washington, Feb. 23.-The Yacht
Mayfower, bearing President Roose-
velt and his party on their return
from the homecoming of the battle.
ship fleet at Hampton Roads yester-
day, reached the dock at the navv
yard In this city at 1925 a. m. The
presidential party remained aboard
until S:45 a. m., when they left the
navy yard in carriages in the drizzling
rain and drove to the White House.
Congressional Program This Week.
Washington, Feb. Both houses
on congress began this week to crowd
on steam for the last squirt of the
present congress. After the close of
business next Saturday there will re.
main only three days for legislation.
and 1t is realized that it will be neces-
sary to get practically all of the an.
preparation bills through both houses
before that time, as most of the re-
naming days will be necessary for
the adjustment of the differences be.
tween the two houses.
Both houses will probably con-.
mence holding night sessions early in
the week.
The house began the week with the
discussion of the great sundry civil
Dill. 1t is expected that the question
of the salary of the secretary of state
will again receive attention in con-
nection with the conference report on
the legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill
The House will again refuse to
yield in question of an under secre-
tary of state and that subject will
also be discussed in Connection with
the conference report
1t is expected that the general de-
ticency bill will be ready for consid-
Grafton by the House when the sun
dry civil bill is disposed Of The
river and harbor bill has already
passed the House under suspension of
the rules.
Undoubtedly the House will be able
before the close of the session to dis
pose of all the appropriation bills, and |
the outlook in the Senate is much |
brighter than it was a week ago. Dur
ing the past week the Senate put be.
hind it the postoffice, the naval, the |
pension, the army and the Indian bills. |
and it will be prepared to go on this
week with the diplomatic and consu-
lar, the agricultural and other appro.
priation bills.
i'he river and iarbor billl may be
talked to death.
The Senate will consider and vote
on the bill providing for the re-enlist
ment of the negro soldiers who were
discharged on account of the Browns
Vile riot. and Saturday will be given !
up entirely to eulogies of members Of
the Congress who have recently died,
including the late Senator Latimer of
South Carolina. Representative Pow
ers of Maine, Representative Wiley of
Alabama, Representative Meyer OF
Louisiana and Representative Brick
of Indiana. An entire day will be
given to the Brownsville bill
Senator Carter will continue his eff
forts to procure action on the postal
savings bank bill. There will be a
strong effort to get the Arizona and
New Mexico statehood bill out of COM
mittee with the hope of passing it dur
ing the last days of the session, but
the present outlook is not promising.

STATEHOOD DELEGATION WILL ACCEPT
NO PAY FOR ITS PATRIOTIC LABORS
Governor Curry in Brief but Pointed
Message Submits Report of the Com
mittee on Its Labors at the
National Capital

our behalf For this valuable help the
people OF New Mexico should be, and
as your committee believes, are under
lasting obligations to him.
We are also assured that President.
elect Taft is extremely friendly to the
cause OF statehood for New Mexico
and that independently of any party
pledges he believes in the Justice of
our cause, and that we have ample
qualifications fitting us for immediate
admission to the Union. He is aiding
us now to the extent he thinks it is
proper for him to go during the clos
ing days of the present administra-
lion, but regards the pledge of the
platform under which he was elected
as absolutely binding upon the incom-
ing administration.
We are also pleased to report that
our admission is not party question.
Dut we have most valuable friends
and strong advocates in both of the
great political parties. We have full
faith that the unanimous declarations
OF the Republican and Democratic par
ties in their respective national con
ventions in 1908, will be fulfilled at
this session of Congress.
We found some questions were
raised in opposition to our admission
by members who were fearful that we
might adopt constitution undulv rad
lcal, they not knowing that our peo.
PIE are extremely conservative. We
nave attempted to correct this I'm.
founded opinion by showing the class
and character of our people, as repre-
sehted by both the Republican and
Democratic parties, and have asserted
that they need have no fear whatso-
ever of a constitution with any i'm
proper provisions contained therein.
We desire to attest to the fidelity
and zeal of your excellency in promot-
ing the work of the committee. your
extensive acquaintance with the pub
JIG, men of the country has been an
asset of the greatest value, and has
brought the attention of every depart
ment of the federal service to the long
delayed claims of New Mexico, and
her right to admission as a state.
Delegate Andrews has been able
and untiring in urging Congress to
grant statehood; he has intelligently
and earnestly urged the right too long
delayed, and has brought to the attell-
tion of Congress knowledge of the
vast resources of our territory, and
Of the steady and conservative char
acter OF our people.
We have been very cordially re-
ceived and have been most generously
encouraged by the individual men,
bers of the Senate and House, and we
give the members thereof our united
appreciation for the many good words
spoken by them to us in behalf of New
Mexico.

planted his great vineyard and for nearly 20
years he received a fair rate of interest on

Changing the Slogan.

The Fairmont Times very pertinently
remarks:
Our Republican friends have spent some
eight years in telling the people OF West
Virginia how oil and gas owners were
properly assessed. With no campaign on
hand this year they are now trying TO
convince them that gas owners are not
sufficiently taxed. They cannot be right
in both contentious.
Yes, and none of us have forgotten that
the tax reformers'' told us that the OBJ
ject OF the new tax laws was TO catch
the big corporations which were escaping
Just taxation under the old laws"
Their experts in mathematics got busy
and gave us table OF assessments under
the old law and the new law showing how
they were Soaking the corporations"
IL looked good 10 the uninitiated and those
who would not take the time 10 investi-
gate the assessment on the farm and the
home under the old and new law. The
expert mathematicians religiously avoided
giving comparison of the assessment on
the farm and the humble home under the
old and the new law. II we could believe
them the middle class Of taxpayers were
in a fair way to be exempted from taxa
ton under the Dawson "tax reform"
1t is sad commentary on the intelli-
gence OF many Of our people that they
accepted the statements OF the tax re-
formers" without investigation. Or was
it due to their childlike innocence in the
honesty OF the TAX reformers" who have
been holding public Office for quarter Of
a century? Whatever the cause they are
in fair way to awake from their Rip
Van Wrinkle slumber when they get their
tax receipt for 1909.
