There seems to be a growing
belief all over the country that
the Jeffries-Johnson fight was
one of the biggest fakes of the
century. 1t seems from the re-
ports of the sporting writer's that
Jeffries did not try to fight, but
that he did try to break all of his
sporting friends all over the coun-
try, and that now they are trying
to frame up another fight and
break all the cOlored population.
The thing seems to be very trans
parent and it is getting more SC
every day. The sporting writers
are certainly throwing the har-

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 10. It may be said
that the prospects for q Republican majority
in the next House Of Representatives are
much improved, or rather, that the prospects
for Democratic majority are fast fading
away. In fact, Democratic prospects have
consisted mainly in claims and buster which
are no longer as bold as they were few
weeks ago. The present Republican majority
of "a may or may not be reduced, but it is ex-
pected that it will be Is or 80, if not more.
The hopelessness of the Democrats is ap-
parent in their claim that they will gain from
eighty. to hundred seats-such claim of
course is not sincere. The Republicans will
surely gain twelve or fifteen seats, and with
that gain can lose twenty to thirty and still
have substantial majority. But it is quite
likely that as many seats will be gained as
lost, and the majority in the next House re-
main about what it is now.
The Democrats have been basing their
hopes on the unpopularity of President Taft,
but Taft is growing in public esteem daily.
Tie people are learning the truth about our
big. good-natured, honest President. They are
learning of the economies of his Administra-
ton, of his personal sincerity, of his aim to
give the people an administration for the best
interests of ALL
Then again, the bugaboo of high prices
which was laid to the tariff, is becoming a

The Robin.

When shadows dark have made the world seem
dreary and monotonous
And everything except the sky is blue,
We fancy that the friends we used to know
have all forgotten US
And sunny days have all been gotten through.
We think that we have reached point where
even bald civility
Is scarce where comradeship was once so
free,
Then we get salutation from that prince of
affability,
The robin who is singing on the tree.
He tells jaunty story of million welcome
visitors
Who come to join and beautify his song.
The ghosts of introspection stink away like
gaunt inquisitors
AS hosts of summer sunshine troop along.
He takes the sting from every petty human
animosity
Since nature, just as kind as she can be,
Is scattering her treasures with such hearty
generosity
For US and for the robin in the tree.

macv in the colonial and commercial
world was now firmly established. Her
resources, too, were developed surely
and swiftly. Mines Of iron, tin and coal
were opened, factories were erected, and
canals were built which made possible an
internal traffic which the most magma
tive mind had not hoped for. This bust
ness activity affected every class in Eng
land, especially the merchant class, for
PROSPERITY enabled them to- secure a
larger voice in Parliament, and in con-
fiicts over taxes, treaties, peace and
war. to gain favorable decision to Eng
lish indus tries. America, also, was COM
ing to the front as a commercial power.
England realized this and was determined
to retain for herself superior power
over commercial affairs, at any price,
but economic equality was not to be con-
sidered. To be specific, England regard
ed America, politically, as dependency
subject to English government; but not
as a part of tt e growing mother country,
sharing in equal privileges with her:
economically as a mere possession to be
handled as would best benefit the people
at home.

One of our best writer's on national
affairs has said: "That in the march of
nations our country has kept STEP" We
know it by the victory of ideas, by the
recognition of principles instead of mere
policies. Selfish interests if they are our
pilots will betray us. Vainglory will de-
stroy u.s. Pride will wreck US. Expedi-
ents are for an hour. but principles are
for ages. Nothing can be permanent and
nothing safe, that does not sink deeper
than politics or money. We must touch
the rock to have sure foundation.
Nothing but true manhood exercised in
the fear of God can make sure and safe
foundation for any nation. The mariner
on the trackless ocean is guided by the
compass which enables him to outrlde

NEW CONSTITUTION.

Having closely read the new
constitution for New Mexico we
are impressed that it is an ex-
cellent document, worthy of
those who created it, and of the
careful consideration of the peo-
pie. While it is not a perfect
document, you don't have to
use a powerful microscope to see
that it searches after the wei
fair of the people of this COM
mon wealth. The interests of
education are well conserved,
the public lands are fortified by
the Laws of the Realm" and
we are well supplied wife judi
cial districts and public offices.
The trusts and R. Rds. and cor
porations are TO be controlled by
agents, who are to be elected by
the people. What better could
we ask? If it has any weakness
it is mostly in omission and this
can be- supplied by future am
endment. If we reject this con-
stitution, the same delegates
will be recommended and do
about the same thing over again,
feeling piqued that we do. not
understand the situation better,
and that we have put the state
to so much sxtra expense, -ane
then, unnecessarily also, to re-
! ject the constitution will delay
statehood about two years and
possibly indefinitely. There
fore it is much wiser to accept
this constitution, and be deliver
ed from the many territorial
grievances and irremedial ills as
a consequence, Than to reject it,
and trust to that ever Elusive
mirage, of Future Indefinate-
ness, there's one vote for the inn
pelial constitution Of the 4sth
star of the Union.
