MEASURE HANGING
IN THE BALANCE
SENATE AMENDMENTS TO STATE
HOOD BILL ARE CONQUERED
nv BY THE HOUSE.

Washington, Aug. 10.-The New
Mexico Arizona statehood bill was put
up to President Taft today for his ex-
pected veto, WREN the house con-
cured with the senate amendments to
the measure. Already both houses
have canvassed the possibility Of pass
ing the measure over The expected
veto, which will be based on the ju-
diciary-recall provision of the bill
Some of the senatorial friends of
statehood have reached the conclusion
that passage in the senate over the
veto is improbable, figuring that OF the
SO votes cast for the bill, fully dozen
will be lost, without any source from
which the deficit can be made good to
meet the required go votes on the Sec
ond attempt. There Is no doubt felt
as to the passage of the bill again In
the house and some senator's contend
that its success in the house would
strengthen 1t in the senate.
Today's action in the house, which
both democrats and republicans ap
plauded, was without any roll call.
Representative Flood Of Virginia
who piloted the measure through TN
house, explained to that body that tn
! amendments made no material change

New York, Aug. 10.--Ex- President
Roosevelt has an article entitled
Alaska Again" In the current number
of The outlook. After taking issue
with a newspaper statement that dur
ing the Roosevelt administration the
same course had been pursued as had
been pursued later In connection with
Controller bay, Mr.. Roosevelt discusses
some of the general phases Of Alaskan
development. and adds:
"The government must itself control
the development of Alaska and adopt
as the guiding principle the idea of
shaping that Development In the inter-
est primarily OF the people as a whole,
the syndicate or other development
agencies thus receiving benefit only as
an incident to comforting 1t.
Il do not think the task Is very
difficult one. II only we. the people.
personally and through our represent
atives, approach 1t with this purpose
clearly In mind. and II we insist that
the agents OF the government act with
an understanding of the needs of the
people and resolute purpose to see
those needs accomplished, even though
1t be necessary to override the repre-
sentatives of the great interest who
wish TO prevent Alaskan development
until It Is shaped primarily to benefit
those interests"
Mr.. Roosevelt begins his article with
Washington correspondent Of the New
York Tribune of July 2s justifying the
withdrawal of the Controller bay lands
from the forest reserves on the ground
that similar action had been taken by
Mr.. Garfield and Mr.. Pinchot In elimi-
mating certain areas at Eyak and VAL
dez Arm from the forest reserves. Mr..
Roosevelt continues:
Humorous or False.
"The article assumed that was de-
ceived by Messrs Garfield and Pinchot.
1t Is hardly necessary to say that
.any such assumption may be made
either with intent to be humorous or
with a full knowledge of its falsehood.

Terrible Auto Accident.

Eldorado Springs.-Tossed down a
precipitous cliff, out of an automo-
bile, and then following the machine
as it took sheer drop Of seventy-five
feet and was finally dashed to pieces
on the rocks of the river bed 500 feet
below. Mrs. J. B. Baldwin Of Denver
was SO paddy injured that she may
die. That she was not instantly
killed is due to the fact that her body
caught on a projecting ledge. BY the
time the automobile, rolling down the
mountain side like a tumble-w.ed.
reached the bottom, its momentum
was SO great that 1t bounced clear
across the bed Of the creek, which is
between thirty and forty feet wide,
and in the descent was SO badly
smashed that parts of its machinery
were found a hundred feet apart. The
accident occurred about midway be-
tween Eldorado Springs and Crags, on
the recently completed Crags boule

Report on Big Game.

Washington.-The most accurate re-
port on the big game Of the United
States has just been issued by the
Biological survey. According to this
report, opportunity to hunt big game
is now afforded in all of the states
except eleven. Deer hunting is per-
mitted in thirty-seven states; elk
hunting is permitted in Wyoming,
Montana and Idaho; an open season
for moose is provided in Maine and
Minnesota; mountain sheep may be
hunted in Montana, Wyoming and
Idaho; mountain goats in Montana,
Washington and Idaho. Antelope are
now protected throughout the United
States, and caribou occur only in
Idaho and Minnesota, where they are
protected throughout the year. Some
states limit each hunter to one head
of each kind of big game, but in the
case of deer the limits are usually
more liberal. According to this re-
port, there are 1000 deer in Oregon,
1900 in Montana, 1,400 in Wyoming
and 700 in Colorado.

der the appropriations. State Auditor

mated the revenue from the different
tax levies at $3,173,000 and the rev
enues from corporation and other
fees, Inheritance taxes, license fees

enues for the last six months have
shown a falling off compared with
