NEW MEXICO AND ARIZONA
WITH the completion of New Mexco's pro
wv posed constitution and the near-comple-
tinr, Of Ariznna,S there IS Afforded OCDOr-

7ITH the completion of New MeXicos pro
wv posed constitution and the near-comple-
ton of Arizonas there is afforded Oppor-
tunity for interesting comparisons. New Mexico
is 'safe and sane" document. 1t dabbleS IN re-
form but lets it go at that. For instance it acr
cepts the referendum but rejects the recall and the
initiative 1t has some other provisions that ten
wears ago might have been considered radical but
now are accepted as conservative.
Arizona's fundamental law will be advanced
progressive 1t has all the 'isms" that the cor
porations hate and deride. 1t makes it possible
for the people to run the government and make 1t
hot for special interests that get into politics.
Two sister territories, side by side, could hardly
be expected to be ruled by SO different spirit III
the framing of their basic law.
Another interesting thing about the contrast
is the position the president and the senate are put
in by it. Mr. Taft sent his agent, Frank Hitch
cock to Arizona to tell its people that they must
be good that if they adopted any loony constltu-
ton they needn't expect its ratification. The tear
of this possibly influenced New Mexico toward
conservatism, but it only made the Arizonans
more self-assertive.
1t isn't probable that the reactonary element
will have strength enough in the senate that passes
on the constitutions to turn Arizona down, but
one might wish that it had to see whether would
accept one new state and reject the other because
of their different views of democracy. One thing
NAV be predicted: Ten years hence New Mexico S
constitution will be changed to look more like Ar-
zona's, rather than the other way around.

Jury HOLDS MULATT0
FOR DOUBLE MURDER
Testimony of Detective Brands
: John Sears as Slayer Of
Pastor and Wife.

TRENTON. n. j., December "a jury
empaneled by Coroner David V. Bowers.
after hearing testimony today, rendered
verdict that Rev. AMI l.. Armstrong
and his wife, who were murdered in their
home at Dutch Neck, near here, Thanks
giving eve, came to their death through
being shot by John Sears, the mulatto
who lived at the Armstrong home, where
his mother was the housekeeper.
The verdict was based upon the testi-
mony of County Detective James Kirk
ham, who told the jury that Sears had
confessed Thanksgiving day to Prose-
cutor Crossley and to himself in the
presence of Chief of Police Hiner and
Detective John J. Clancy of Trenton.
There was a good deal of other testi-
mony about the alarm given by Sears that
q murder had been committed and the dis
covery by neighbors of the bod es of Mr..
and Mrs. Armstrong In their home, but
after Kirkham had testified that Sears
had made a confession the jury decided
that no further testimony was necessary,
and rendered it's verdict.
Kirkham in his testimony did not dis
close whether Sears in his confession had
given any motive for the murders. The
testimony of Kirkham as to the confess
sion was corroborated by other witnesses,
who told of Sears accompanying the coun-
ty officers to the Armstrong home the
night after the double tragedy and dis
closing where he had hidden the watch
taken from Mr.. Armstrong at the time OF
the murder.

SHIP LOBBY PROBERS
Meeting IN new YORK
No Evidence That Transatlantic
Conference Had Hand in
Matter.


NEW YORK. December 2.-Continuing
the probe to find out whether foreign
steamship interests maintained a paid
lobby at Washington to thwart legislation
favoring American shipping, the special
congressional committee today met for
its final session here.
The subcommittee, composed Of Repre-
sentatives Garrett and Hawley. reported
at the opening of today's session that an
examination had been made Of the books
Of the conference yesterday.
The expenditures Of funds disclosed
nothing that tended to show that. the
transatlantic steamship confe. ence had
anything to do with the maintenance OF
the alleged lobby at Washington.
Lawson Sanford, secretary of the trans
atlantic conference, who was recalled,
testified that the passenger rates are fixed
on the other side, but as a rule the freight
rates are not. The freight managers OF
the various steamship lines fix the rates
he said. according to the law Of supply
and demand.

making a statement for the foreign Of
fee in the chamber Of deputies today
said:
"The Italian policy aims at the main
tenance Of peace, and the maintenance
Of the status quo, having the triple al

renewal nor a modification Of the al
lance has been discussed in our meet
ings with foreign ministers. In har-

Austria that Italy ia strong. while
every time an attempt is made toward
