STATEHOOD FOR

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. Ill
President Taft, it is claimed, will
veto the New Mexico-Arizona state
hcod resolution as passed by the
senate last Tuesday. Democratic
leaders of both house and senate de
clare, however, that they can mar
shal enough votes to pass the meas-
ure over his veto.
The president indicated some time
ago that he would take this action
unless the Nelson amendment was
adopted. This amendment REQUIRED
the people of Arizona, as a condition
OF statehood, to vote down the pro
vision in their constitution fer the
recall of judges. The amendment
was defeated, however, and the SEN
ate passed the bill as it came from
the house, simply requiring that a
vote be taken on the recall feature
1t was believed, following the pas
sage of the bill, that Taft would
allow the measure to become a law
without his signature by permitting
it to remain in his hands ten DAYS.

last opportunity for evading the

religion for solace, and has profess

his Bible, and appears to be in a

hangman, announced to Warden
Baker that he would decline to Of

matter with him at some length ard
ended the controversy by stating
that, unless Yeager agreed to &c.

ecution would be performed by the
warden in person. 1t is thought
that Yeager will come to terms be-

This left the state without commits

will be without authority, other than
that conferred upon them by the
