Learning of this MT. Pen nington, on the conclusion of the business of the lodge, sent up sev eral trays of delicious eatables and drinkables to the hungry theatrical bunch, and that the surprise was appreciated is putting it very mildly. Responding for the company Mrs. Caskey thanked AIr. Pennington for his consideration, and the company voted the A. B.'s the best of good fellows and most excellent hosts.

THE PENSION BILL
Senator Gore Wants to Put It Over

Washington, Dec ia sharp div
ision of sentiment among senators re-
garding service pensions legislation,
protests against large congressional
expenditures, the Russian treaty
question, continued investigations
and enactment of the deficiency bill
into law, will keep Congress busy this
week. Both houses will adjourn next
Thursday until January 3. Plans are
going forward for what promises to
prove a congestion OF legislation after
the recess.
The Sherwood so-called dollar-a-day
pension bill, which the House has
passed, probably will not find an easy
way TO the Senate. Senator Gore OF
Oklahoma, leading democratic
member Of the pensions committee.

the possibility of postponing action

will be no presidential election. In

WHY ARIzoNA AAs NO sgApoRr
Provision OF the Gadsden Purchase in
Favor OF Mexico

Provision of the Gadsden Purchase in
Favor Of Mexico
A remarkable ignorance of the his
tory of the Gadsden purchase is dis
played in the newspaper comments
on Arizona's desire for seaport on
the gulf of California. The boundary
between Mexico and the United
States runs a few miles south of fu-
ma, leaving both banks of the Color
ado river at its mouth in Mexico A
DETECTION of the boundary to the
north is responsible for this condit-
ion. 1t is this detection that cuts
Arizona off from the gulf of Califor-
MIA,
It is assumed by the various jour
nails discussing the efforts of the Ari-
zonas to induce the United States
government to acquire another strip
of territory from Mexico that an over
sight was made when the Gadsden
purchase was concluded 1t is an
erroneous assumption. The line was
drawn purposely TO allow the mouth

Mexico. Otherwise Lower California
would have been cut off from Mexico
entirely II was TO retain territorial
communication between Lower Cali
fornia and the other sections OF the
Mexican republic that Mexico refus-
ed to cede the strip between Yuma
and the gulf Mexico consented to
neutralize the Colorado river but de
clined to make a cession that would
cut Lower California entirely off from
the Mexican mainland,
The matter was extensively dis
cussed when the treaty of purchase
was concluded MIR. Gadsden, the
American commissioner, strove very
hard to get the strip between Yuma
and the gulf included in the cession
| but Mexico's insistence upon territor
ial connection between Lower Califor
MIA and the mainland was so clearly
just that Mr. Gadsden finally conced
ed the point When the treaty was
before the Senate for ratification this
question was again discussed. 1t was
finally concluded that Mexico was
right Not only was she right but il
was within her power to refuse to sci
us any territory at all.
Arizona wants the government tC
buy another strip that will give the
new state a sea outlet on the gulf o.
| California, at or near the mouth Of
the Colorado. That Mexico will con
sent to the cession is most unlikely
II she sells the mouth of the Colorado
she might as well sell Lower Califor
mia along with it. We hardly thinl
she will be disposed to part with any
more territory Compulsion is on
of the question.-From the Oakland
Tribune.
