Abolish State Senate.

The New Mexico legislature is
debating with, and the senate
branch of that body has already
passed a measure which abolishes
the senate. This would leave
that state with only one legiz-
lative body, which should he
enough for any state. AS a gen.
aral thing a controversy between
the house and senate in any state
legislature results in nothing be-
ing done, or else in the passage
of compromise bills. Comprom-
Using on any question has never
settled anything right, and with
but one body of men to pass bills
and the governor as a vetoing
power, should remedy many of
the present ills connected With
the making Of laws. 1t is an in
novation and is liable to become
contagious.

TOWN WILL BUILD JAIL
AND BUY FIRE ENGINE

The council Of Roman has de-
cided to build a concrete Jail and
also to purchase a chemical fire
engine. This decision was ar
rived at Monday evening and
bids for the construction Of the
jail will be asked for in a short
time. The Jail decided upon will
be 10x12 feet on the inside, with
eight inch solid walls. The roof
will be of concrete also.
The chemical engine will be
double cylinder type and will be
capable of affording protection
during the time the town must
await the construction of a water
system.
During the past week it has
become apparent that a Jail will
be an absolute necessity in order
to maintain order and to have
place in which to confne any
person creating a disturbance
similar to what has occurred
lately. 1t is not saloon towns

NEW CRUISER
HITS BOTTOM
ARKANSAS GOT BLOW LIKE ONE
THAT SUNK TITANIC.
Albright Compartments Closed DC
Not Even Stop Speed Tests
Of Craft.

WASHINGTON. ID. C.. June g.
When the naval inspection board ar
rived at Rockland. Maine. last night.
10 conduct the Official trial OF the
big battleship Arkansas. they found
that when passing through Two Bush
Channel entrance TO Penobscot Bay.
Sunday afternoon. the Arkansas had
touched the bottom. Captain Fech-
teller. president OF the trial board. re-
ported to the Navy Department to-
day b a the ship struck rocks and
bounced along on this reef for a dis
lance OF ~ feet. most of the way just
below the forward boiler rooms. At
that point the ships structure is di.
vided into a great number OF small
compartments. which are supposed
to be filled with oil In some cases.
and in others with spare fresh water
for the boilers.
The value OF the naval system OF
subdivision OF the hull into a large
number OF small compartments is be
lieved to have been demonstrated by
the accident. for the blow to the Ar
kansas is thought 10 have been just
such a clip as the heel of the iceberg
inflicted upon the bottom OF the ILL
fated Titanic.
At the point where the Titanic was
struck there were no compartments.
but only the thin skin of the ship.
The Arkansas was able TO go out
again to-day to finish her trial with
these eight compartments probably
full OF water. leaving the damage TO
be repaired later on.
The Arkansas has not been turned
over to the government by the New
York Shipbuilding Company. Of Cam.
den. whose employees were in charge
OF the vessel when she struck. There.
fore. the company will make good the
damage.
