Reward in Heaven

Under the caption of"Taft and
Statehood" the Washington
Post publishes h e following
editorial:
'President Taft's position on
the statehood bill, as annouced
by him in his speech at Passaic
Monday night is characterized
by the broadest kind statesman
ship. The president admitted
very frankly that there was op-
position within his own party
to the passage of the bill on the
ground that it was 80 likely
to add four democrats to the
senate"
"Or, if not democrats" he add
ed, republicans of that radical
type that are entirely out OF
sympathy with themore conserv-
ative notions of the east.
Nevertheless, he asserted, the
statehood bill, if passed, will be
marked up in heaven to the Gre
dit of the republican party.
"The president takes the broad
stand that the republican party
having pledged itself to the en-
actment of a bill granting state
hood to Arizona and New Mex
leo should pass such a measue
at the present session ofcongress.
president Taft is right. The
republican party has pledged it.
self to the passage of the state
hood bill. When other less inn
portant sensational subjects are
forgotten, 1t should be written
large in history that the Sixty
first congress made states out OF
the two great territories, New
Mexico and Arizona.
"This important measure,
which merely does justice to two
territories and carries out a sol
emn pledge, is not a proper sub
.ject for the display of partisan
ship. President Taft shows his
breadth Of view in regarding it
as the duty of the republican
party to pass the bill, without
regard to partisan consequences
1t is true that the bill may lead
to the addition of four demo
Gratis to the minorit party in
the senate, but while the repub.
lican party may be the loser in
this respect it will be the gamer
in popular regard. The bill must
be passed at the present session
if faith is to be kept with the
people.

bill fail at this session, believing
that their party will profit by its
failure. They have argued them
selves into believing that the
next Congress will be Democratic
and they would rather see sta te-
hood deferred than immediate
statehood conferred on Arizona
by a Republican Congress.
The rank and file of the Demo
cratic party want immediate
statehood. In most of it's terms
the Beveridge bill is acceptable
to them.
The only danger in the state
hood situation lies in the fact
that the House will not concur
in the passage of the Beveridge
bill. The Beveridge bill will un-
doubtedly y pass the Senate, but
it is expected that Democratic
members Of the House will op-
pose it and rather than accede
to the House amend ments, the
Senate will let the bill die in con
ference.
If Democratic politicians in
Arizona will only keep their
! hands off for a little while, the
statehood bill will pass.-Tucson

The Santa Fe Boosts
Agricultural Interests

The creation by the Santa Fe
railroad, of the position of agri-
cultural demonstratori in the dry
farming districts along its lines
in New Mexico, and the appoint
ment of Professor !. D. Tinsley.
former field expert of the agricul-
tural college, to that position
has already brought some def
mite and encouraging results in
the dry farming regions of the
territory. These results indicate
clearly the far reaching influen-
ces this work is likely to have on
the final development of this
part of New Mexico S agricultur-
al resources.
Mr.. Tinsley has recently fur
nlshed the bureau of immigra-
ton a brief outline of the results
accomplished in the three months
during which he has been at
work. This work, has been large
~ preliminary, yet in that time
he has established himself and
the work on a successful basis
at th1rty-two points in the terri
tory. Thirty of these points are
on the line of the Santa Fe, and
two fifteen miles away from tie
railroad. He has in all about one
hundred thirty men who are in
active cooperation with him on
from three to eight acres of seed
furnished by the Santa Fe COM
pany.
While devoting himself tc the
work of organization, Mr.. Tins
ley is permitting the farmers to
plant and cultivate according to
their own ideas but will take
very complete and careful notes
on the methods they use and the
results obtained. This will furn-
ish the basis for the more exten-
sive work which will be underta-
ken next year. The agricultural
demonstration visits the local.
ties where experiments are under
way about once in six or eight
weeks. With thirty points to Wis
it this keeps him on the move all
the time. At each point he usual
ly delivers a lecture and also
makes a personal visit to the far
mers who are co operating in the
work. The interest shown in the
work has been very satisfactory.
Thus far only two points visited
have failed to respond with the
necessary co operation. This in
dicates plainly, that New Mexico
dry farmers are thoroughly alive
to the Importance of learning
proper dry farming methods and
informing themselves as to the
character of crops best adapted,
the best time for planting and
the many other details which
must be worked out before the
industry can be placed on its
most successful basis Mr.. Tins.
ley is giving particular atten-
ton to an effort to find varieties
of corn, Kafflr corn, Milo Maize,
small grain, broom corn, pota-
toes and several other crops
which are best adapted to the
various localities. That this is a
tremendous undertaking will
be plain when it is called that
crops must be found adaptable
to attitudes ranging from $500
to 5000 feet. Mr.. Tinsley reports
that the prospects for this sea-
sons crops aregood throughout
eastern New Mexico, and unusu-
ally good in the district from
Las Vegas to Ration.

DEATH OF MELTON.
Famous Winner Of the English
Derby Passes Away.

Melton, the most famous Derby winner
of modern times, died a little more than a
week ago at Westerham Hill stud, having
reached the great age of twenty-eight
years. lie was bred by the late Marquis
of Hastings and won the Derby in 1885
by head from Paradox the contest fur
nishing one of the most fascinating cpl
sodes Of the English turf. The late Fred
Archer had the mount on Melton, and
the expert opinion vas that but for his
splendid handling of the colt Paradox
would have carried off the coveted event.
Melton also won the St. Leger and had
an unbeaten record as a three-year-Old,
and was notable as the first winner Of
the Middle Park plate, the two-year-old
and for which event he was trained by
the famous Matt Dawson.
After his four-year-Old year Melton was
sent to the stud, and when eight years
of age was sold to the Italian government
for $50. 200, but in 1896 was repurcha sed
for $3.50 and brought back to England.
and ever since remained at the Wester-
ham Hill stud. where his fee was $1,000
He was by Master Kildare out Of Violet
Melrose, and was exceptionally success
full at the stud. He got Henry the First,
winner of 100000. Arlington, S37, 600; Will
liam Rufus. $4,000. and His Majesty,
winner Of $4,000. Melton also sired Bull
lingdon, Prince Melton. May Melton, Sea-
ton, Delaval, Malfitana, Gilbert Handley,
ton, -Stirrup Cup, Nimrod. Glucose and

D. A. FLETCHER QUITS.
Third League Promoter Gives Up His
Scheme.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special D1spAfch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, December 1O.-Positve in
formation reached here from Chicago
yesterday that D. A. Fletcher who has
been trying to organize third major
league" has abandoned the scheme after
reaching an understanding of some kind
with the men who control organized base
ball Fletcher. it is said, on the best of
authority, has thrown up the sponge and
has left a number of ball players in the
lurch as part of an alleged agreement
recently made with certain base ball lead
ers. The big leagues decided some time
ago to induce Fletcher to give up his
scheme, thereby avoiding complications
and a possible war. Fletcher incidentally
found that wherever he went in search of
financial aid in launching his project the
big leaguers followed him with agents
who persuaded prospective hackers to
keep their money under lock and key.
Furthermore, the big leaguers succeeded
in winning back so many of the star play
ers who had promised to go with the new
organization that Fletcher soon discover
ed that his chief assets had been taken
away For that reason. it is asserted, he
was not unwilling to reach an agreement
with the organized base ball forces. F'Iet-
cher, it is understood, will not attempt to
get up another new league in 1912, as he
has learned much to convince himself
that a fight against the combined inter-
ests cannot be successful without an enor-
nous outlay.

TALK OF HART FOR
TOM LyNCH'S lob
Owner Murphy of Chicago
Club Said to Be Behind
Candidate.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 1O--Tom Lynch
will not have walkover for the National
League presidency. No less a parsonage
than Jim Hart of Chicago will oppose
him.. Hart is the candidate Of c. w.
Murphy. Cub owner. He was also a
candidate last year against Johnny Hey
dler before John A. Ward entered the
phy-Ebbets-Fogel combination tried in
vain to crowd through Hart.
Murphy has had every one guessing
for the last month. 1t is SO unusual
for c. Webb to keep quiet nobody could
figure out the .'Eisger in the wcodpile. y
To an Eastern League manager who
was in the west on a shooting expedi-
ton the owner of the Cubs unbosomed
himself a few days ago. This man
ager, who doesn't wish to break into
print, because he has troubles of his
own, says that the anti-Heydler fac.
ton has gone after the scalp Of Lynch
1t has been working on the quiet, TAX.
ing a lesson from last years mistake
when a premature explosion spilled the
beans.
Murphy, erstwhile champion of Lynch
Is natural kicker. He Is sore on Lynch
because the latter stood by Umpire
Billy KLEIN, who is very distasteful In
c. VS. sight. 1t Is believed that Fogel
who also harbors an alleged grievance
against KLEIN, was egged on by Murphy
the real flgurehead of the Phillfes. Eb'
bets is after Lynchs scalp because the
executive assessed him $500 for turning
over Shortstop Tommy Mcmillan to Roch'
ester without asking waivers. Ebbets has
protested the decision, and the case will
be decided by the National League boart
of directors at the annual meeting.
Hart Is assured Of three votes-Mur-
ply. Ebbets and Fogel. Just where Stan
ley Robson of St. Louis stands is a mat
ter of conjecture. Robson was one Of the
chief kickers on the umpiring throughout
the season, but he is also so unfriendly
toward Murphy that it is very doubtful il
he will side with the Windy city magnate
on any proposition 1t is known that Gar
ry Hermann, Barney Dreyfuss, John T.
Brush and the Boston owners are with
Lynch hook, line and sinker-that Is. SO
far as Boston is concerned, assuming that
John p. Harris controls the Doves.
To GUST President Lynch 1t would be
necessary for the Murphy Ebbets- Foge
combination to control hve votes. From
long range this appears almost an alb
surd possibility. But that Is what every
one thought year ago, when the cam
paign was launched against Heydler.
Base ball makes strange bedfellows.
Murphy may be able to accomplish little,
but he is bound to cause some excite
ment anyhow.

COLUMBIA BEATS GEORGETOWN.
Finish Basket Ball Game
for Morningside Team.

NEW YORK, December 1O-Columbia
swamped the Georgetown basket ball team
in the first half of the game In the gym
nasium on Morningside Heights last night
and then let the substitutes get some very
good practice in the last part Of the con-
test. The score was 40 to Il. The south
erners were completely outclassed from
by the time the game was half over the
score was 81 to in favor of the home
team.
The Columbia five worked with the
of a machine, and dropped the
ball into the basket with the least posi-
BILE difficulty. kiendl was a team In him
self. and scored at will, his total for the
evening being eight goals from the field
and three from the foul line.
The preliminary skirmish was sharp
and although Columbia got the jump ON
the Washington team, the Southerners
evened things up quickly when Waldren
got a good shot in from the end of the
court. After that, however. Columbia
made runaway affair Of the contest,
and had a lead Of nearly thirty points be-
fore Georgetown got another goal.
Against the Columbia substitutes in the
second half the Georgetown team had a
little better going, and Marten proved
himself to be a sterling player. He shot
goals after two splendid runs down the
floor, which, with two goals by Schlosser,
gave the visitors to Coiumbia's IS.
In this period Columbia used six second
string men. Kiendl being the only member
of the original five to continue in the
game until the final whistle.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. December 10.-Since the
defeat Of Battling Nelson by Owen Moran
nearly all of the lightweights and near
lghtweights in the ring have apparently
lost sight of the fact that Ad Wolgast
of Cadillac. Mich. is the real holder of
the lightweight championship of the
world. Now all Of those fighters who can
Or think they can-make the lightweight
limit are hurting their challenges at Owen
Moran. And. indeed, Owen is acting for
all the world as If he really were the
champion. Poor Adolph is completely
sidertacked.
First Tommy Murphy, the Pride of
Fiatbush," hurled a challenge at Moran.
Tommy based his claim for recognition
twenty-round battle. Murphy an
nounced that he was willing and anx-
ious to repeat his victory, and added
that il Moran cared to make the dis
lance longer Tommy was willing to show
how easily he could polish off the little
Englishman in finish fight.
Moran replied that he was out for the
lightweight championship and he really
didn't see how he could get it by beat
ing Murphy.
Il think Tommy would be easy for me,

vey. Then Murphy was matched to box

'Es quite rugged lad, Ill admit,
said Owen, but isn't one taking an aw-
full chawnce by fighting i'm when there's
no title at stake? And why should
take any chawnces? 1 think I'll get a
match with Wolgast for the champion
ship. I don't see how e can very well
refuse me.
pal Moore has challenged me to a
fight, and SO has Jack Goodman. Good
ness only knows how many others are
after me for fight. I'm willing to fight
them all, but I'd like to get the title
where 1t belongs first.
