MAY BE DEFEATED
ludicatious Are That Speak-
er Cannon Will Refer It
to the Committee
on Territories.
TO CONSIDER IT DAILY
The Senate Will Take Up
the Rate Measure After
the Disposal of Rou-
tine Business.
SIMMONS MAKES A SPEECH
Washington, March 13.—There are
imijcationa that the statehood bill may
ho referred by Speaker Cannon to the
committee on territories. This action,
friends of the statehood for Oklahoma
and the Indian Territory fear, will en-
tirely defeat the measure. The commit-
tee can retain the bill indefinitely and
if it should appear that there are
"insurgent” votes enough to concur
with the senate, the bill would not,
they say, be brought into the house.

H. Peri era Mendoz, Mrs. Frederick

ing the ball there will be a musical
entertainment. The proceeds of the
ball which, it is believed will reach
$25,000. will go to the Beth Israel
hospital iu this city*. The demand
for boxes has been unprtsceduaited
and the premiums paid for seats were
higher this year than ever before.
TAFT GOES TO NEW YORK.
Will Determine His Official Future in
Metropolis.
Washington, March IS.—Secretary
Taft, who leaves tomorrow for New
York, will meet in that city his two
brothers. The purpose is to hold a
family council to determine the sec-
retary’s official future. The matter
was discussed somewiiat at the cab-
inet meeting and at the close of the
meeting Taft was in conference for
some time with Secretary Root at
the latter's office in the state depart-
ment. If Mr. Taft accepts the place
on the supreme bench, the change
will not take place until the fall term
of the court next October, thereby
affording Secretary Taft an opportu-
nity to carry forward certain public
measures in which he Is interested.

Candidates Begin to Announce in

Special to the Times.
Alamogordo, N. M., March 13.—The
political pot started boiling Monday
by two candidates announcing for

that the crop of candidates will be ifh-

The amendment. In question is one
granting lieu of lands to the new state
for school purposes, in case sections
13 and 33 reserved in each township
proved to be mineral lands.
Although the bill goes to the com-
mittee without a motion in the house,
li is still on the speaker's table. Un-
less some member insists that the ref-
erence be made at once the plan is
to defer the reference until the return
of the members who have gone South
on a river and harbof inspection tour.
This delegation will return Saturday.
Art agreement was made before they
left whereby nothing was to be done
with the statehood bill until their re-
turn.
The news that the bill was to go to
the committee, which leased out to-
day, was somewhat disconcerting to
the “insurgents,” who have been
In tiding their energies to strengthen
their numbers in the expectation of
a direct vote on the motion to concur
iti the senate amendments to the bill.
If some wav had not been discovered
to send the bill to the committee this
motion to concur would have been in
i rder and would have taken preced-
ence over a motion to disagree and go
into conference.
Just how the “insurgents" are to
meet the new situation has not yet
been decided upon, so far as can ‘be
ascertained.
the entire county Democratic ticket
was defeated and this, combined with
the fact that the entire official force
of the county was Democratic makes
the last campaign and its results
most remarkable. So close is the
strength of the parties in this county,
that it is useless to attempt a diag-
nosis of the case at this early date.
The independent voters of tile county
hold the balance of power and thus
the independents of the county can
elect either ticket they choose.
