RATION WILDLY
ENTHUSIASTIC
Gave Splendid Ovation to
Governor Prince and At
torney Renehan
ISSUES CLEARLY DEFINED
New Mexico Will Run Govern
ment Cheaper Than Would
Arizona.

Attorney A. B. Renehan has return.
ed from Ration, where he spoke with
Former Governor L. bradford Prince,
at a meeting held at he Seaberg col
iseum Monday night. The atten-
dance was estimated at 400. Cover
nor Prince made general address
on the patriotic duty as citizens to
do all in their power to obtain state
hood in order that they might have
some participation in he general gov
ernment instead of being residents
Of mere province governed from a
central government in the creation or
conducting of which hey have moth
ing to do. He also gave history of
the struggle for statehood since the
first voluntary constitutional conven-
ton of 1850. He decried that atti-
tude of some who seem to be willing
now that statehood can be obtained,
to defeat it, and charged such atti-
tude to the selfishness of some poll.
ticians who think that individually
they may obtain greater personal adj
vantage if statehood should come un-
der a Democratic rather than under
a Republican administration.
Mr.. Renehan's Talk.
Mr.. Renehan followed with an ad-
dress which lasted two hours and
covered the objections made to the
constitution as drafted in detail, TAX.
ing up each criticism which had beer
made and viewing it in the light OF
the constitution as drafted and in the
light of other constitutions.
In discussing the ease of amending
the constitution, Mr.. Renehan showed
that it was more liberal in its provl
sions on this subject than the con
stitution of any other state excep,
three, but even in those three there
were limitations and requirements
which made the ultimate end more
difficult of achievement than under
the New Mexico constitution. Even
the constitution of Oklahoma, he
said, cannot be so easily amended as
our own.
On the subject of taxation Mr.. Ken
chan demonstrated that the extrt
cost of running a statehood govern
ment under present conditions of tax
alton would not exceed $4,000, O.
about 80 cents person per year.
Cheaper Than Arizona.
But he showed that this amour
would be much more than made u

Special to the New Mexican.
Washington, Jan. 1S.-tnless there

that New Mexico will be reduced TO

Nelson introduced joint resolution
for amendment Of the Constitution of

Lorimer Exonerated BY Burrows.
| Washington, Jan. 1S.-"There is
absolutely no proof, direct or indirect,

/ this was the conclusion of Senator
Burrows of Michigan in a speech in
the Senate today defending the ma

privileges and elections, Of which he
is chairman, confirming the right OF
Senator Lorimer of Illinois to his seat
After summarizing the testimony OF
witnesses White, Link, Berkemeye1

clared that ''it is obvious that there is
nothing in the statements of any one
of them, or in the statements of al
taken together which would justify
the conclusion that their testimony as
to bribery is true, or could be relied
upon in a matter of even minor i'm

CONSTITUTION
WILL PASS
Declares 0. A. Larrazolo,
Democratic Leader, Fight
ing For 1t
SAFE MAJORITY PREDICTED
Another Constitutional Conven-
ton Would Not Give Better
Document.

Il have not the slightest doubt that
the constitution will be adopted Sat
urday and by safe majority. Of
course, am not prepared to give fig
ures. We do not know these things
But | do not think there is going to
be great opposition to it,
So said o. A. Larrazolo, the Demo
cratic leader and noted orator in
Spanish and English, who arrived in
the city last night and left this morn
ing to continue his campaign tour.
Mr., Larrazolo was interviewed as he
was leaving the Claire hotel to go to
breakfast.
Have you seen Mr.. Crist's reply
| to you?" was asked.
Mr.. Larrazolo's dark eyes showed
amusement Seen it," he queried
Seen it? Oh yes, have seen it, but
have not read all OF it-yet. 1t was
too lengthy to read all at once. There
was some crisp Crist language in it
was there not?" Mr. Larrazolo smiled
Asked what reception he was re
ceiving on the tour he has been max
ing Mr.. LarraZolo said.
Il am favorably impressed with the
way things are going. My position or
the constitution has been defined
time and again While l do not be
lieve the instrument perfect I do be
lieve that any defects it may possess
are due to omissions rather thar
what is inserted in it. The constitu
ton on the whole is a good one ant
there seems no good reason why i
should not be eagerly adopted Satur
day.
do you think we could get a bet
. ter. one by holding another constitu
tional convention?" was asked.
AS Good as Any.
eff another convention were held
the same delegates would be in it,
said the Democratic leader. Il thinl
know them pretty well and under

GIRLS D0RM|TORY At 3. B. 4.
Building Now Nearing Completion Is
Both Substantial and Handsome.
Other Contributions Needed
to Wipe Out Deficit.

To the Editor of The Bryan Eagle:
As you and the citizens of Bryan
have been SO much interested in the
building of the girls dormitory at the
Bryan Baptist Academy and have so
generously helped, you will be inter
ested to know the present state OF
affairs. AS doubtless all of the citi-
zens know, the building is now near
ing completion. 1t is superb three
story structure of mission architec-
ture and will accommodate fifty-four
girls, besides furnishing ample quar-
tiers for President and Mrs. Mcdonald.
II has good baths and lavatories.-The
architects, c. w. Bulger & Son, of Dali
las. and the contractor, w. Fl. Myer-
lambers, of Navasota, have done tfeir
work well, and the building will be
joyful surprise to the people OF Bryan
and surrounding country. being, ! sus-
pect, the very best building in the
town. Ii will be ready by the opening
| OF the session and there is every pros
pect of its being filed to the limit.
| Ii was hoped that the building could
be put up for $4,000, but, as is fire.
quently the case, the cost of construc-
ton will 90 materially above expecta-
tions, not to mention the cost OF fur
nishing. The total cost, including the
plumbing. septic tank, etc, will run
close to $4,000 AS the building nears
completion the committee very much
needs more money Any and all citi-
zens that have not helped are cordial
" and earnestly invited and requested
to do so. See Mr.. Eugene Edge, or
leave contributions at either OF the
banks. Doubtless many who have al
ready helped will be glad to Increase
their amounts, seeing the superior
quality of the building.
The second payments on the notes
given by the citizens will be due in
October. OF course all will keep this
in mind and be ready TO meet the mat
ter promptly. Meantime, If some
would anticipate the time and pay now
ii would greatly help and be most
grateful. The committee having the
matter in charge wouldn OF forget the
kindness.
AS the canvass was closed last
spring there we're some who helped
and whose generosity was not ac-
knowledged in The Eagle. In justice
to them and those having the matter
in charge the list appears below. Ev-
cry reader who has not helped can

me GRAND TRUNK TERMINAL.

There is no doubt that the Grand
Trunk terminal on the New England
coast is to be at Providence The
Journal or that city is right when it
says: The purchase of q large tract
Of land on Promenade street by the
Grand Trunk for a freight yard and
buildings affords substantial evidence
of the intention of the Canadian road
to do business in Rhode Island.
When Mr.. Mellen proposed to issue
terminal bonds and build a tunnel to
the Seekonk many believed that he
intended only to obtain money for
general purposes and that the tunnel
plan was intended merely to make
the scheme losk attractive to the gem
eral assembly, But when the right
of way to the tunnel portals was
bought his good faith was no longer
questioned.
THE sincerity of the Grand Trunk
is proved by the same test. Railroad
companies do not buy expensive prop
erty unless they mean to -use it for
transportation purposes. The location
of the Grand Trunk freight yard, it
may be added, is one that should
please shippers and consignees.'
New London, by her public spirit,
is preparing the way for something
of the kind to happen at the mouth OF
the Thames river.
