SENATOR DIXON ATTACKS
PROPOSED .S|X.YEAR
PRESIDENTIAL Term
CALLS IT AMEsUM FOR RELIEF OF EpRANs FOR THE PRESIDENCY"
and ASKS IF WOODROW WILSON IS TO Be PREVENTED FROM run
ING AGAIN IF The PEOPLE WANT HIM
MARITIME ANNOUNCES THAT
WILSON FAVORS THE SCHEME

Washington, d. C., Jan, 30.-An at
tack on the proposed single six year
presidential term, as a measure ad-
vocated by "aspirants for the presi-
dency" was made in the senate today
by Senator Dixon. chairman Of the
progressive national committee, who
declared he did not believe there was
any great public demand for the pro-
posed change in the constitution.
'If the truth must be stated he
said, this resolution might better be
entitled proposed amendment to the
federal constitution for the relief of
certain aspirants for the presidency
of the United States.
The senate took up the Works reso-
luton proposing the amendment un-
der agreement to vote before the
close of the Legislative day.
Senator Paynter, Democrat, offered
a provision that when the amendment
should be ratified, the president then
in office should be entitled to six
year term. He declared no question
should be left open as to whether it
applied to President Wilson.
Wasn't it your understanding that
Mr.. Wilson was elected for a four
year term?' asked Senator Dixon.
Senator Paynter returned that the
amendment should be made so that
it would take effect Immediately, not
withstanding who might be in office.
Senator Dixon's retort was to sug-
gest that it be so changed that it
would not apply to President-elect
Woodrow Wilson. He declared that
no amendment should be adopted to
the constitution that would prohibit
the people of the United States from
expressing their own Judgment as to
whether president should be re-
elected
Eve are offering something that is
not demanded by the people, except
as that demand flows from some per-
sonal ambitions" declared Senator
Dixon. Are you Democratic senators
going to embarrass President Wilson
by declaring that no matter how good
his administration may be, or how

WHY WE SHOULD HAVE A NEW
COUNTY.

We have in this section a small en-
pire within itself.
1t has more taxable property than
any other county proposed. 1t can
be formed without bankrupting or Grip
pling any of the counties from which
it is taken. 1t is urgently demanded
by the people residing within its boun-
daries, as is abundantly evidenced by
the monster petitions which they have
signed and directed 10 the legislature
heretofore.
The general public opinion is that
small counties are more economical
than large ones.
1t will reduce one great expense
that of enormous travelling fees.
1t will make county with the seat
thereof of easy access, where as mat"
ters now stand the people of this sec
ton are forced to drive from seventy
five to over hundred miles across
roads almost impossible in places, or
take trip by rail which requires sew
eral days time and the expenditure
of much money. In fact, the county
seats are so far removed that a trip
is prohibitive to most people.
1t will be self-sustaining county
to start out with and the citizens are
capable of putting it on an economic
al and progressive basis.
We have a population of over six
thousand people to start with-a
larger population than that of many
of the older counties which have

much the people may desire him to
serve again, he shall be debarred, in
order to provide an opportunity for
others who want the presidential Of
fice?"
Senator MARITIME of New Jersey.
declared Senator Dixon could "leave
Woodrow Wilson out of the debate"
as Mr.. Wilson had announced his SYM
pathy with the Democratic national
platform, which endorses a single
presidential term.
"Was there any agreement with
him before he was nominated that he
would not accept another term?" per-
sisted Senator Dixon.
81 know of none," replied Mr., Mar
tine.
Senator Dixon declared he had
heard that the real author of the sin
gle term plank in the Democratic ma
tional platform was "a man whose
name began with B. and was not
Buckham' and demanded of Senator
MARITIME whether President-elect VIII
son had in precise language limited
himself to single term.
81 still believe that Mr.. Wilson has
declared his position to be in favor
of a single term" answered MARITIME.
'I have observed in the past re-
torted Senator Dixon, that he has
held different views from what he
does now. Possibly that is the case
in this matter
MR.. ROOT OBJECTS.
Senator Root objected to all GER
tain proposed amendments, declaring
that changing the federal constitution
was so serious a matter that 1t should
not be complicated by the consldera-
tion of the personal interests OF Will
son, Roosevelt or Taft"
An amendment authorizing the re-
call of a presid ident at any biennial ma.
tional election was presented by SEN
ator Bristow.
Senator Bacon offered an amend
ment to reduce the proposed six year
term for a president to single four
year term. 1t was defeated AZ to 25.

their cause at Washington. So much
for the local interest of this story.
There is more important and far
reaching interest that will extend to
the attention of the entire country i'll
the whole matter Of the Pueblo In
dians deciding their land to the gov
eminent
Next Sunday, the gathering here at
Santa Fe of delegates from the nine
teen pueblos of the southwest will be
the beginning of the consummation
of a plan of far-reaching benefit to
these people. From here the dele
gates will accompany Francis c. Will
son, government attorney for the
rueblos, to Washington to settle
matter of great Importance to them.
Ever since the enabling act was
passed by congress and in face of the
legal objections that he then foresaw,
Mr. Wilson has studied the situation
ir which he perceived the Indians
would be placed, and devised the plan
for the deciding of all Pueblo Indian
lands to the government for term
of 25 years, with a reversionary
clause.
The decision of Judge Pope in the
Sandoval liquor case brought an issue
upon the very point in the enabling
act which Mr.. Wilson had antipicated
it would.
Mr.. Wilson had outlined and striven
for the present proposed deciding of
Indian lands long before decisions
similar to that rendered by Judge
Pope. Before the Lake Mohawk con-
ference held in New York in October
1911, Mr.. Wilson read paper set
ting forth the Status of the Pueblo In
dians and pointing to the remedy for
the embarrassing situation in which
they might some day be placed At
that time the conference, which is an
international organization and has for
its purpose, the consideration of
means whereby to aid dependent peo-
pies Of the earth, was greatly interest
ed in Mr.. Wilson's proposed solution.
From the ruling that the Pueblo In.
dians were citizens and subject to the
police power of the state flows the
right to tax their lands and personal
property which could only eventually
result in large portion Of their hold.
ings being sold for taxes, thus reduc-
ing the present self-sustaining COM
munities to abject poverty and dis
tress. The plan to deed all Pueblo
lands to the government for 25 years,
would enable the Indians in that time
to be prepared to take back their
laws and 10 have made provisions
along many lines for future citizen
ship.
There has not been any law or rul-
ing on the matter, but the Indians
will now 60 with Mr.. Wilson to Wash
ington; will tender their deeds to the
secretary of the interior; will 60 be-
fore the congressional committee on
Indian affairs, and the matter will be
presented to the administrative and
legislative branches of the govern
ment in the fullest and most COM
plete sense for consideration and ac-
ton.
There are over 100000 acres to be
decided. The majority of the pueblos
have taken action and approved of
the movement and the trip to Wash |
irgtion will bring matter of no small
interest before the government as
well as before the people throughout
the country interested in Indian at
fairs.

The forming of new counties is in
keeping with the marvellous growth
of the state.
1t will create great increase in
the value of thousands of acres of
land, thus adding to the wealth of
the state.
1t will be in keeping with our form

would centralize the governmental
power. The great American principle
of local government will be eXem-

The portions of counties so remote
from the seat OF government are
forced to bear a burden of taxation
for which they get little in return;
and this condition is contrary to the
constitutional blessing of representa-
tive government which has been the
foundation of our country's great

its citizens as the people of these re-
