The Post fully intended this week
to publish a copy of the bill, intro
duced last week i'm the house of rep
resentatives by Representative Dren-
nan, providing for the acceptance by
the state of Arizona of the benefits
of the Carey Act, but on account of
the printed bill failing to reach us be-
fore going to press we are compelled
to postpone publication until next
week The bill as originally draft
ed before the meeting of the legisla-
trre is already in type, but we were
informed by Mr. brennan early in the
week that he had made several chang
es in order to conform with certain
constitutional provisions and so we
will not print it until the corrected
bill reaches us.
The bill has been read first and
second times and has been referred
to the committee on public lands, of
which Representative brennan Is
chairman. This is the measure un-
der which the reservation lands are
expected to become available to set
tlement and entry within the next

B. Fall and Thomas B. Catron were
today elected United States senator:
after the most sensational pOlit;
fight that has marked the history o.
New Mexico before and since it be-
came state.
Charges of bribery and corruption
have been frequent, and the arrest
of four Legislators for alleged ac-
ceptance of bribes not only involved
them, but drew into the affair one

night and when morning came
was the opinion of all that today
would see the selection of two SEN

The fact that Arizona would today
select its two senators had much to
do with the finish of the fight here
aus 1T was realized that if the sister
state got in first it would lay good
claims to long terms, which are
now rich prizes to be won.

CIBOL4A, Ariz., March 27.-Tenta-
tive preliminary work on an irriga-
ZION system for Cibola valley has
been in progress for about three
-ieeks. Rumor concerning such
system has been rife for some time
and it now appears that the valley
people are about to see the fruition
of their hopes and efforts.
The project is backed by Messrs.
Clipper and Hamilton OF Los Angeles,
with C. H. Mcdonald, foreman i'm
charge of construction. Fl. G. Me
Cart, who is closely allied with
Messrs Clipper and Hamilton in this
venture stated to your correspondent
that the work would progress slowly
until after the overflow this summer.
per would be ON the premises and
personally make a study of the con-
ditiOns, course, duration and effect
of the overflow This with a view
to eventually making the system one
that will withstand flood-tide condi-
tions and be of practical service at
all seasons of the year
The company apparently has ex-
oellent financial backing, and, should
no unfortunate circumstances prevent
the completion of the work, the re-
sulting benefit to Cibola is inestim-
able.

ACCEPT PACT

sideration of the wage question was on
the program at today's session of the
convention of the anthracite mine work
ers, who will adopt or reject the agree
ment entered into by their sub-commit-

increase in wages and were granted a
10 per cent. advance, but with the slid
ing scale abolished. The sliding scale
was put in force by the anthracite coal
strike commission in 1908 and provides
that the miner shall receive "A l per cent
Increase when the price of coal at tide
water advances five cents a ton above
the $3.50 basis.
In the conferences In New York the
miners asked for an increase of 1416 per
cent. when they found they could not
get 20 per cent. h was refused and
they then proposed that they would
take the 10 per cent. advance IL the
operators would consent to have Charles
p. Neil, United States labor commits
sioner, arbitrate the question whether
the sliding scale should be abolished.
The operators answer was that II there
was to be any arbitration it should be
on all the demands of the men.

BRIDGES ARE
DISCUSSED

Five members of III Board of Free
holders, Ahner, Harrison, Malta, Ry-
man and Director Evans, L. D.. How
ard Gilmour, representing the Public
Service Railway Company, and two of
its engineers and another man were the
only attendants at the special open
meeting held in the boards room today
to discuss the ordinance granting the
+ Public Service Railway Company the
right TO maintain a double track service
over that bridge.
That so few were present was a sur
prise. 1t Is known that the citizens of
East Newark, Hudson county, favor the
ordinance, and that it was evident there
was no objection from the Newark size
Of the bridge as Dol as Walter Evans,
as director of the board, called the
meeting together.
After explaining he purpose of the
meeting Evans asked If there was any
one present who desired to speak against
J the granting of the franchise. No one
Il answered. Evans then asked If there
was any person who wished to speak in
favor of IL. Mr.. Gilmour said he had
nothing to say except that he had come
to the meeting for the purpose OF an
swering from the standpoint of the
Public Service Company n questions
that might be asked.
That was the cue for Mat
Tia, He asked whether the company
was willing to make the same condi
lions for the Jackson street bridge as
they asked for on the Clay street bridge.
He was informed that the company mao
practieally agreed to do that at a meet
ing held some time ago with the PUBIC
Utility Commission.
Mattia then asked about the matter OF
,op,uensation for the use of the pridge
ne was informed That a tentative ar
~.nsement Ind been made and that IL the
j ronraseptatjves of the company ana the
members Of the Boards of Freeholders OF
Il and Essex counties could hot
cot together on that II would be lott TO
the Court Of Chancery TO determine.
Malta asked a number of other ques-
lions and was finally answered N one
nv Director Evans, who said "rhe prop
nsltion is one to accommodate the people
,rhis board wants TO do that. aud the
Public Service railway has expressed ITS
desire 10 help in every way. II seems
ia me the logical thing to do is to grant
the ordinance and fix the compensation
later
Further argument on the matter was
then laid over until next Thursday, May
%, when the full board win be in session
