A BRiCKBAT FOR OWEN.

New Mexico is feeling extremely sore because it's ambitions for State hood received a setback on Saturday in the Senate, and the Albuquerque Journal of Sunday morning relieves it's feelings in this wise:
 ''The door to Statehood has been once more blocked in the face of New Mexico-and this time en- trance is obstructed by the con- temptible tactics of a Democratic Senator from Oklahoma. It is d shameful thing that one member of one house of Congress can stand in the way of the rights of 300, GOO people, but such is the fact. Sem ator Owen of Oklahoma has dis graced the state which he is sup posed to represent; has disgraCed the Senate of the United States, and may rest assured that he will always be regarded by the people of at least one state as the double-distilled es- sence of all that is mean, small minded, and despicable. Senator Owen, in a sublime exhibition of patriotism, declared that the busi- ness of the United States must come to a standstill if the Senate tried to admit New Mexico 70 tatehOod with out Arizepa, The Senatsi f0rsoeth,

must, if it approve New Nexico's 5 Constitution, also approve that of Arizona-when the Constitution of Arizona has not yet been submitted to the President, when it h-s not been submitted to Congress, when officially the government knows ab- solutely nothing of the Constitution of Arizona, when by no possibility could the Senate recognize the exist ence of an Arizona Constitution un- der the law. Sen ator Owens posi- tion was simply this; if you try to admit New Mexico, I will end the Congress right here. And unfortun- ately, this statesman from Oklahoma was able to carry out his threat.
 ''As a matter of fact, we believe that Statehood has been only post poned. We believe that the attempt to make New Mexico the scapegoat for the sins of Arizona will fail and that New Mexico will get positive action from the Congress at the extra session, her Constitution hay ing been approved by the President. As far as Arizona is concerned, no New Mexican will object to her admission; her troubles will be her own and the least of New Mexico's worries.
