Special to the News.
Washington, d. c. April ~.
The Committee on Territories Of
the House, which has the statehood
matters for New Mexico and Ariz-
ona in charge. has very clearly de-
bned its position, which is 10 line
with the program olthe Democratic
caucus. The majority membership
in their deliberations decided that
joint action upon the matters oil
the two Territories would be pres
sed, and Chairman Flood Of the
Committee on Territories has intro
dnced a bill seeking independent
action upon the matters Of the Ter
ritories. The Territories Commit
tee has named some OF its Mem
hers to consult with President Taft
for the purpose Of ascertaining
whether the suggestion which em-
enated from citizens committee Of
Arizona to the effect that their char
ter be so amended as to make the
Executive approval unnecessary.
would be acceptable. The posi-
ton of the President in relation to
this has been defined, and while
Mr.. Taft is entirely willing to have
the controversy thrashed out in
Congress, he does not propose in
the meantime TO lose any Of
hiss rights, when il comes to
finally passing on Arizona matters.
The Territories Committee at their
meeting on Thursday, decided that
they would take up no other sub
ject than that of statehood for the
two Territories, which means that
a large volume OF legislation that
has been proposed will have to re-
main over until the regular session
next winter; and Il the disposition
shown by this Committee is adher.
ed to by other Committees OF the
House, the probabilities are, that
the session will not be long one.
II may terminate by the FIRST ol
July. The plan Tor statehood now
semms clearly defined, and well in.
formed statesmen are hardly able
10 figure out how the affairs OF New
Mexico and Arizona can be separa-
ted. This means a bitter fight OF
the recall provisions oil the Ariz-
ona constitution and unfortunately
affects New Mexico, but the result
in the House is easily foretold
while there are many who predici
the Senate will finally pass th,
measure and that the Presiden
will not withhold his signature at
ter Congress shall have acted fav
orably in the interests Of both Ter
ritories.
The Honorable Albert b. Fan o.
Three Rivers has given an inter
view TO a Washington newspape
upon the statehood matter which
he says: New Mexico will b

upon the President, in my opinion

clusion as 20 the Arizona constitu
tion that would be satisfactory 4

A very sociable affair was given
to the citizens Of this little berg
last Thursday evening in the form o
a dance, or in other words, house
warming. It was given in Engineer
Hagist's new house on Railroad ave.
The affair was one long to be re-
membered in this vicinity as every
one present enjoyed themselves in
the happiest possible way. The NIL
sic was a rare treat being furnished
by Pref. Jones, late of one OF the
coast cities, where he was director
in one Of the leading theatre or
chestra. He was assisted by Fred
Marvel on the guitar.
At midnight another treat was in
store: MIR. and Mrs. Dean, proprie-
tors Of the G. n. Lunch Room,
served refreshments which were
thoroughly enjoyed by all and the
partakers wish to again extend their
ssomach-felt thanks to Mr.. and Mrs.
Dean for their Inequalities in maxi
ing It possible for US to have these
good times. Another feature of
this enjoyable affair was the dane
ing OF Mrs. Sullivan ana Mr.. Dean.
After refreshments were served, all
returned to the dance. which broke
up in the wee hours Of the morning.
after having given Mr.. Hagist's new
floor a hard rub for the money.
We also want to thank Mr.. and Mrs.
Hagiat for their kindness in donat-
Ing the use of their house.
