Two Bite. OFChsny- Program for Admission to Statehood by Easy Stages Bill For Constitutions To Be Passed At the Present Session of Congress. If the Fundamental Laws Please the President the Next Step Will
 Be Taken
Bill For Constitutions

Washington, Dee 26. State- hood legislation at the present session of congress will not go beyond giving authority to the people of New Mexico and Ari- zona to hold constitutional con- ventions, and to provide means for the conventions, if the wish es of the leading members of congress dictate the policy This program is in harmony with the messages of President Taft. It is said that some of the members of the senate view with suspicion the land grants in territories. Also the estimat- ed population. figures from the Territories are not accepted Mir. Taft's. attitude, it is said, will furnish an excuse for delay, In the event of there being 10 issue before the people of each territory except the adoption or rejection of the constitution, it is believed the best judgment of the people will prevail, and there fore the plan is adopted to hold. the constitutions coneentions the year before admission,
 Should the. conventions draft constitutions, which do not ade- queately protect the public in- terests in the matter of guarding. the public lands and natural re- sources, and should those con- stitutions be adopted by a vote by a vote of the people. of the territories, the president could reject them if he desired and congress could again open the way for the adoption of satisfac-. tory constitutions.
 The indications are that a bill will be passed at this session pro- viding methods for holding con- stitutional conventions aud for: elections to pass upon the ques- tion of adopting or rejecting the constitutions. Itis believed that the effect will be to insure good state constitutions and maybe two stars will be. added to the flag next year after the adjourn, ment of congress.

TOOK PUMP AND A HAYSTACK

President Louis w. Hill of the
Great Northern Railway was COM
PEELED to spend a night this week in
a haystack. He started from Helena
to Great Fails in his automobile. Near
Fort Shaw the machine struck a mud
hole. He applied to a settler for a
bed and supper and was told that he
could find a bed in a nearby hay
stack, and that he could help himself
to refreshments at the pump.
When he did not appear at Great
Falls on time a searching party start
ed for Helena. They found the au-
tomobile in the mud hole, and a short
inspection of the nearby neighbor-
hood revealed Mr.. Hill and his chat
feur sound asleep in the haystack.

CLEANUP DAY is
A GRAND SUCCESS

The boys oi the city were on deck
in full force. Han Il dozen little tots
would get possession Ci a shovel and
maui a square foot or SO OF grass and
then one, with the slovel on his
shoulder, would sneak up TO one OF
the halls where iunch was being sery-
ed. After getting helped to half u
dozen sandwiches and plate OF
doughnuts and few coffees he would
go back and report the game dead
easy. Then another kid would graf
The shovel and work his way in.
When it was discovered that Il kid
was pounced upon and dragged in
bodily by the ladies they got an idea
they were being worked 10 aelp, re-
duce the sandwich pile and the pleas
ure was considerably reduced. The
ladies who contributed the grub semi
in enough to feed all CaI son City. Vir
ginia City and Reno.
In order to get rid of the provend-
er they gave a bali in the evening
to which everybody was invited free
(even the musicians) and given a free
supper. Even with this assistance
there is lot of grub left over.
Carson City did itself proud yes
terday and the counter attraction of
the Reno races did not stop the big
holiday. Cleanup Day has come to
stay.

MUCH lAW-lITTLE JUSTICE
Recently Judge Pike sitting in the
district court at Reno handed down
a decision that the Postal Telegraph,
which is endeavoring to do business
in this state, was not entitled to ira
verse any Of the rights Of way held
in ownership by the Southern Paci-
fic road. II is not the desire of this
paper to question the motives which
prompted the jurist after hearing tle
case presented, but to use plain and
emphatic English, it looks to the Bo-
nanza like a damn shame. Undoubt-
edly the decision is based on the
strict letter of the Jaw, but it brings
us face to face again with that time
worn expression, as above quoted,
that there is too much law and too
little justice.-Bonanza.
