PRESIDENTS NEW
 YEAR GREETING

Washington, D. C., Dec. 31-As New Years greeting to New Mexico, it was announced here today that President Taft antici pates that within sixty five days from today he will have the pleas ure of sending to Governor Mills of New Mexico his order for the New Mexico executive to issue the proc lamation calling an election for two congressman, state officers, members of the legislature and county officers for the State of New Mexico. The constitution has been carefully exa amined by the presi dent and many members of both houses of congress and it is an- nounced on the highest authority that it is certain to meet their ap proval The election for state off cers in New Mexico is to take place not less than sixty days nor more than ninety days from the date of the proclamation. This document will probably be dated March II. 1911. This means that the elec- ton will be held in June of this year.
 It was announced today that it will scarcely be possible for Ari- zona to get the election returns on the constitution for that state to Washington in time to be submit ted to the present congress. This because of the fact that the election in Arizona is held nineteen days later than that in New Mexico For this reason statehood for Ari1 zona will probably be delayed for another two years.
