Just few days before the death OF
Mr. Burnett there was quite a distress

phone that the son of Mr.. Burnett had
not given him the care and attention
he should have had In his old age. and
that he got out one cold night and
was almost frozen, and that both his
feet were frozen OFF. This was an un,
true report, falsehood and a shame.
for Mr.. Burnett received from his SON
in the last days of his life the very
best care and attention possible. So Ii

Statistics of New States.

The signing by President Taft of the
bill giving statehood to Arizona and
New Mexico brings the United States
roster to forty-eight commonwealth
The signing of the bill was made an
interesting function at the White
House. The delegates to congress
from the territories, William ii. An
drews Of New Mexico and Ralph 81.
Cameron of Arizona, were present, as
well as Senator Beveridge and other
friends of separate statehood.
A pen made Of New Mexico copper
and Arizona gold failed to show up in
time to be used, but Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchcock had gold pen. Mr..
Taft had signed civilian H. to the
statehood bill when "Bull'' Andrews
produced quill pen, and the president
wrote Taft with that and then
switched back to the Hitchcock pen to
write the approval and date.
Under the bill New Mexico and Ari-
iona cannot be admitted to the Union
until next spring. The territories, how
ever, can go ahead this summer and
elect delegates to constitutional con-
ventions. The constitutions will be
sent to the people Of the territories on
referendum and then will go to con-
gress and the president for their APP
prevail. Even if congress fails to act
on the constitutions the states will be
admitted automatically sixty days aft
