Especial Dispatch TO the Morning Journal
Santa re. N. M, Dec. 4.-As only
little more than month remains
before the New Mexico Legislature
meets again, speculation is rife as to
policies that may be pursued by the
majority.
In view of the result of the recent
election in this state many believe
there will be distinct effort to har-
monize the warning factions of the
republican party with view to car
rying the next house of state repre-
sentatives and the election Of Il con.
gressman.
II is no secret that leaders of the
republican party in all parts of the
state are worried over the United
States senatorship.
They are not satisfied with the at
tltude of Judge Fall, himself. They
feel that he should not have attacked
the administration on the floor of
the senate. that he should not have
given out interviews in New Mexico,
before the republican national con-
vention at Chicago, favorable to
Colonel Roosevelt and predicting d
bolt in case Roosevelt was not nomi-
mated.
But the sorest spot with these lead
ers is in the memory that Fan. when
; elected permanent chairman of the
republican state convention at Albu-
querque. studiously avoided mention
ing the name of President Taft
thoneh "a criticized the presto en-. ~
inuendo and openly praised Colonel
Roosevelt, though the latter had then
been nominated By the Bull Moose
convention.
Also these leaders point out that
while Fall contributed to the repub-
lican state campaign fund, he made
only one speech in the state, after the
convention, and that so lukewarm to-

RIVER TRANSPORTATION
AN OFFICIAL PROBLEM
Senator Townsend of Michigan
Believes People Should Own
Docks on Rivers Receiving
Government Aid,
tBy Morning journal special Len.ed wIrel


Washington, Dec. 4.--Mayor Fitz-
gerald, of Boston, made the declara-
ton in an address here today before
the National Rivers and Harbors con-
gress, that the United States should
own the coal mines of the country.
He did not agree however with SEN
ator Townsend, of Michigan. who had
preceded him, that it might be we'll
fer the federal government to take
possession OF dock sites on rivers im-
proved by the government, in order
to keep railroads from preventing wa
ter competition.
81 would be in favor, said Mayor
Fitzgerald, "of having the municipal
ity or the state, and the federal gov
ernment cooperate in the control OF
dock sites, but | think the local au-
thorities should have some say.
II do not agree with Senator Town
send that no government Improvement
of harbors should be made until 1t
can be shown that it would reduce the
cost of transportation over consider
able territory. The only limit to APP
preparations for river and harbor i'm
provcment should be a report from
for any purpose. They should be i'm :
proved for water power and other pur-
poses. The people of the whole coun-
try are anxious to see the Mississippi,
river improved regardless of the cost
and we can do ii without impoverish-
ing the country
The railroads of the country can
not carry all the business. the mayor
said, and should have plenty of water
competition. He declared that on $780,
0000 900 worth of coal, Boston hao
paid $70,000,000 in transportation
charges and that something should he
done to improve these conditions The
government could take possession OF
the coal mines of the country in a few
years, he asserted, if things kept on as
they had been going during the last
few years. All water ways to which
sufficient commerce is tributary
should be improved at federal expense.
said Senator Townsend and, in the
same time, the question of water
power as well as navigation. should
be considered to help defray the ex-
penses of improvement. He declared
that when there was competition be-
tween railroad and a boat line the
former should not be allowed to make
rates over any part of its line lower
than compensatory in an effort to de-
stroy competition. Dock privileges, he
said, should be open to all and should
be owned either by the municipalities
or by the federal government.

said the solution of the river improve
ment was to reach the ear of the vo-
