Chairman'S Proposition Is to
Cut Out Arizona Recall But
Let New Mexico Vote On
Easier Amendment Feature.
SENATE HAS CHOICE OF
TWO WAYS OUT OF IT
Either It Is Believed win Get
Support of President; Ari-
zOna Must Submit or Block
Game Indefinitely.


Washington, d. c.. July 13.-The
senate of the United states will have
laid before il two propositions as
solution OF the statehood problem for
New Mexico and Arizona; one calling
for more easily amended constitu-
tion for New Mexico, the other ieav-
ing her constitution intact, both re-
quiring Arizona to Eliminate the recall
for the judges from her fundamental
law. Either one Is assured or the ap-
proval of the president. either one
VIII likely get the concurrence of the
house of representatives and the situ-
alton in the senate now puts the mat
ter squarely up to Arizona, as TO
whether she will sacrifice statehood
for the two territories by insisting on
her recall for the judiciary.
Following the submission of the
Nelson amendment yesterday, leaving
New MeXico's constitution unchanged
and forcing Arizona to buck down on
the recall. it Is announced that Chair
man Smith of the territories commit
tce viii submit an amendment also,
ASKING for the eliInination of the OBJ
jectionable Arizona provision, but
leaving New Mexico whera she is
placed by the Flood resolution. that
is requiring her to hold special
election to decide whether or not she
wishes q more easily amended consti-
tuition.
1t is not believed that the progress
i've element in house or senate will
make the recall an issue by which two
states viii stand or fall. 1t is
recognized fact that the Democrats
want first of all the admission of the
new state OF Arizona their enthus-
iasm for the recall has never been
prominent outside of the faction of
progressive Democrats. The Demo-
Gratis do not care particularly about
what becomes of New Mexico If
Arizona gets in. on the other hand,
1t is pointed out that whatever con-
cession Arizona makes to secure ad
once state she can easily,
If she so desires, replace the recall for
judges In her constitution
New Mexico is probably in 4 better
and stronger position today than ever
before; the burden is now placed on
Arizona and she holds the key to the
situation.

Washington. July t3.-Two import
ant insurgent speeches against the
Canadian reciprocity bill were made
today when Senators La Toilette OF
Wisconsin and Bristow Of Kansas in
troduced their amendments to that
measure and spoke in favor OF them
ana against the specific features of
the pending bill.
Senator La Toilette excoriated
President Taft's administration, not
only with reference TO the tariff legis-
servation policies. Senator Brlstow re-
newed his fight against the present
sugar tariff and urged the repeal of
the '16 Dutch standard" test on i'm
ported sugar, which he declared oper-
ated entirely in the interests of the
American Sugar Refining company.
The reciprocity debate was preced-
ed by the endorsement OF the plea OF
Senator John sharp Williams OF Mis-
sssippi for the retention on the SEN
ate pay roll of Jim Jones. an aged
negro bOdyguard of Jefferson Davis.
jeff Davis Servant on Payroll.
In supporting Senator Williams. the
senate oyerthrew its own committee

Most of them have counted upon
getting away after perfunetory votes

There Is an agreement on an

would render the measure generally

publicans ana there is possibility Of

Senator La Toilette expects to oc-
cupy most of the session tomorrow

The governor explained the meaning
of the terms band OF hope" and

htical factions. He said that the
holy alliance" was the coalition of
sixty Democrats and some dozen or so
Republicans. who elected Edward
Schurtleff speaker OF the Illinois
house in 1909, and put his band OF
hope or personal" following in the
legislature TO rout.
Later in order to avoid the imputa-

changed to black hand" said the
governor.
Fifteen or twenty conferences oc-
cured between Deneen and Lorimer
between their first talk on January
l3, and the senatorial election on May
26, Governor Deneen said he had eX-
pressed disappointment at the sup
port he received in the gubernatorial
election contest carried before the
legislature.
For a long time Senator Lorimer
gave no expression of what his posi-
ton would be in the contest, but at
last made light of the contest, Gov
ernor Deneen said.
Did you talk about the senator

Well II was mentioned, mostly
regarding the support of senator

him we were supporting Hopkins, but

Governor Deneen testified that
Senator Lorimer said that they were
not able to support Hopkins. and later
Lorimer urged Deneen to take the
senatorship.
Did he suggest you could get
Democratic support ?"
Yes. l told Lorimer ! could not
throw down the primary law under
which Hopkins had been selected for
the senatorial candidate Of the party,
even though Hopkins men were fight

Senator Kenyon asked If 1t did not

suggestion. The governor said he

"Dld you think the interests that
had tried to defeat you at the pri-
mary were willing to elect you to the
senate2" Senator Kenyon asked.

they got me out of the governorship.

In discussing the way bills are pas

he said that there is general sus-

SWalIowinQ the Farm.

My homeless man with the chro-
matte nose, while you are stirring up
the sugar in a 10-cent glass Of gin let
me give you fact to wash down with
it, You may say you have longed for
years for the free, independent life Of
the farmer, but have never been able
to get money enough together to buy
a farm But that is just where you
are mistaken. For some years you
have been drinking a good improved
farm at the rate Of 100 square feet a
gulp. If you doubt this statement,
figure 1t out yourself. An acre of
land contains 1850 square feet. Es-
timating, for convenience, the land at
$4356 an acre, you will see that it
brings the land to just 1 mill per
square foot. Now pour down the fiery
dose and imagine you are swallowing
strawberry patch. Call in five of
your friends and have them help you
gulp down that 50O-foot garden. Go
on a prolonged spree some day and
see how long it requires to swallow
enough pasture land to feed a COW.
Put down that glass of gin; there is
dirt in too feet OF good, rich dirt,
worth $43.5G per acre.-Robert j. Bur

SOUTHERN POINT OF NATION

The most southern point of main
land territory in the United States is
on sharp bend OF the Rio Grande
river about 20 miles southwest of
Brownsville. The government official
survey shows that its latitude is 25
degrees and minutes, witch places II
beirH the most southern part OF the
peninsula OF Florida. but not as far
south as Key West. The spot is
marked by a group of picturesque
Mexican ranch buildings with their
matched roofs. Growing upon the
land are groves OF wild palm trees
which lend to the beauty OF the trop-
ical scene The distance between
Brownsville and the mouth of the Rio
Grande in a direct line is approximate
ly p miles, but the river has so many
curyatures that its course between the
two points covers 10 miles. accord
ing to the survey of the international
boundary commission, which is com
posed Of the representatives of the
United States and Mexican govern
ments. Before the river empties into
the gulf it makes a sharp bend to
the south, and this rounded peninsula
forms the most southern mainland OF
the country Most of the territory
between Brownsville and the Rio
Grande's mouth is covered by a dense
wilderness OF chaparral The soil is
of primitive richness. caused by the
periodical deposits of silt from the
streams overflow. Owing to the in
accessibility of the little Mexican
ranch. which holds the distinction OF
marking the most southern spot, the
place has been visited by very few
Americans.

WHERE MANITOU SPEAKS

a familiar landmark near Hayton,
Wis, is the old Council Elm" that
stands at a bend in the ManitOwoc
river a short distance below Hayton.
The Pottawotomie Indians who once
occupied this region regarded the tree
with awe and veneFation, believing i
endowed %4n special attributes by
me Manitou or Great Spirit. Under
its shade all important councils OF the
tribe took place AS a meeting place
for representatives of the different
northwestern tribes who wished to en-
ter the Pottawotomie territory. 1t
must have witnessed some strange
scenes. Each spring and fall all the
Pottawotomie clans were wont to
gather at the spacious camping ground
near the tree For days the beating
of drums, the chanting OF barbaric
songs and fantastic dances occupied
the attention of the savages. Among
the many Indian legends concerning
the tree one of the few that has sur
vived is to the effect that the Manitou
speaks to his people in the rustic OF
its leaves and the sigh Of the winter
wind through the bare branches.
