ton Monday when they succeeded In
getting adopted resolution indoors
ing the initiative, the referendum
and the full recall; a resolution con-
graduating the people of the United
States over the selection as United
States senator from Maine of Obediah
Gardner, the progressive leader of
that state, and a unanimous vote
accepting the report of the grange as
a grievance committee that G. b.
Kegley, the progressive leader of
Washington, was not guilty of the
charges brought against him by the
multi millionaire Ieactionary, Samuel
Hill.
The standpatters and reactionaries,

ming the onslaught of the insurgents
upon everything reactionary the
standpatters have been protecting.

the progressives have gained such

ONLY TWO VOTES AGAINST.
The resolution on the initiative and
referendum and recall was introduced
by G. T. Malone, state master of
South Dakota. Only two votes were
cast against it. 1t reads:
''Whereas, the experiment of un

BOOST FOR GARDNER.
The resolution indorsing Obediah
Gardner as United States senator
from Maine declared that the interests
had been asserting themselves so
directly in the United States senate
that it has become vital that the Sin
dustrial order'' secure direct repre-
sentation; that Obediah Gardner has
for years been progressive, faithful
and efficient leader of the farmers in
Maine, and that the entire country is
to be felicitated over his selection.
This resolution passed unanimously.
There was a surprise, even to the
progressives, when Senator Gardner
reached here last week for the grange
meeting he openly announced that he
considered the ring rule of the grange
a disgrace and was here to do all he
could to unseat it. In their stand to
conciliate the progresslves, however,
the reactionaries Monday all voted to
man for the resolution indorsing
Gardner and his past work.

Where New Mexico Wins.
Special to the New Mexican.
Washington, Jan. 1.-THE move
ment to require 100000 population to
each member of CongreS would have
cut New Mexico down to one mem
ber. Delegate Andrews worked hard
to have the number fixed at 212,000,
giving New Mexico two Congressman.
Boundary Dispute Settled.
Washington, Jan. 1.-THE House
committee on Judiciary presented
favorable report on the resolution to
fix the boundary line between Texas
and New Mexico. This resolution was
the result of a special message from
President Taft and has already been
favorably acted upon by the Senate.
It's effect will be to set at rest dis
pute of many years standing with ref
erence to the ownership of strip
of land $40 miles long and varying in
width from three miles to half mile,
and over which Texas has exercised
jurisdiction for many years. The
land is said to be worth from SO to
| $25 per acre. The adoption of the res.
olution will have the effect of confirm
ing the title of Texas to the land. The
controversy was recently revived
by the Incorporation of provision
in the New Mexico constitution which
fixes the eastern boundary of that
state at the 103d meridian, which it is
claimed, is a considerable distance
east of the present recognized line be,
tween New Mexico and Texas.
