NOTES AND COMMENTS. XXX '

Statehood for Arizona and New Mexico seems now,assured, although the joint enabling act, which Congress is expected to pass at this session, will contain the novel condition that the constitutions adopted by the new commonwealths must he approved not ooly by the executive, but by the leg­islative department. Some delay may result from that innovation, Okla­homa's multifarious organic act la re­sponsible for this additional cheek put upon vagaries of constitution makers in commonwealths desirous of entering the Union.

Arizona and New Mexico have long knocked at the door and been put off on the plea of immaturity. The terri­tory out of which they were formed was acquired from Mexico under a promise to give its inhabitants the benefit of statehood as soon as prac­ticable. New Mexico nearly slipped in thirty-four years ago, when Colorado was admitted, but being rebuffed had to stand back while seven more States were created in the region between the Missouri and the Pacific. North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and Washington were admitted in 1889, Idaho and Wyoming in 1890 and Utah in 1896. When Oklahoma and the Indian Territory were combined to make one State by the enabling act of 1906 It was proposed to unite Ariz­ona and New Mexico to make another State. The two Territories were al* lowed to vote separately, however, on the question of amalgamation. New Mexico voted yes, but Arizona voted no, and the other provisions of the act of admission were thus nullified. After a probation period of more than sixty years these two applicants for promotion to statehood are,about to find their patience rewarded, and the only portion of the once spread­ing Federal domain within the conti­nental limits of the United States still held in tutelage is about to exchange that hampering status for one of equal rights and privileges in the Federal household. Arizona and New Mexico will be the forty-seventh and forty* eighth States.

it will be some time, however, be­fore the two new stars are added to the flag. First the states have to adopt constitutions and these have to be approved hy the president and rati­fied by congress. Not until the Fourth of July succeeding such action do the representative stars go into the flag, making 48, where there are now 46. There will be no territories left on the main land of our country, and only Alaska and Hawaii in the na­tional domain *until Porto Rico and the Philippines have been given their rightful organization.

The two new States will take rank in area with the giants among our commonwealths. New Mexico is a lit­tle larger than Arizona, the former having 122,580 square miles and the latter 113,020. Texas. California and Montana are larger than New Mexico —Texas being bigger than Arizona and New Mexico combined. Nevada will rank next below Arizona, having 110,700 square miles. New Mexico has a much larger population—about 225,-000—than the average Western State had on admission. Its inhabitants to­day outnumber those of Nevada, Ida­ho or Wyoming. Arizona is ahead of either Nevada or Wyoming. In education and material prosperity the two Territories are also more ad­vanced than most of their predeces­sors were when admitted. They have gained experience and stability by waiting and are not likely to afford an example of arrested progress, as Nevada has done in the forty-odd years since it became a State.

To make a home out of a household nice things may help, but nothing does so much as kindness. Teach a child to mind you as you teach him his letters. You don't expect him to learn them all in a minute but one at a time. Don't rob your wife all your life in order to make some provision for her in case you- should be first taken away. If you have a home and are out of debt, don't fret and worry yourself and good wife into the grave for the sake of making money. You have only one life to live and it Is brief at best. Take a little pleasure and comfort as you go day by day, and try. to do a little good to others. A morbid, insatiate desire to possess the earth, to grab everything in site, is at the founda­tion of more misery than almost any one thing, Wealth alone will never keep memory green; a good life and kind actions will.

Gain is the o b j e c t * m m $ m m L ' * pursuit. Men in every walk of life are striving for gain. It is a legiti­mate object. It gives bread, clothing homes and comfort, and the world judges wisely when it makes the po­sition a man occupies hinge compara­tively more or less on his ability to earn money, and somewhat on the amount of his possessions. If he is poor it argues either some defect in his expenditures or a lack of practi­cal education to cope with men In the battle for gold. When a boy leaves home it is generally to enter upon some business, the end of which is to acquire property, and he will succeed just in proportion as he has trained for work. Every community is filled with young and middle aged men who are failures because they know nothing of business—their train­ing having been theoretical, not prac­tical and useful. Many are tied to pursuits they heartily dislike, and which are much below their capacity and ability, and would change their course of life and better their condi­tion but for the fact that relatives and friends generally oppose rather than encourage them.

—The demurrer interposed by the defense in the case of Florence Rex-ford against! John Cragen to recover damages for1 personal Injuries sustain­ed by the plaintiff In being run down by the son of the defendant while the boy was riding a bicycle on the side­walk, was argued before Justice of the Peace John M. Barr. The de­fense contended that It could not be held liable for what the son had done and the court took this view of the ease and sustained the demurrer, thereby dismissing the complaint. Plaintiff sued to recover $115.

Announcement comes from Nevada of the engagement of Miss Lillian Mallen, cousin of Mrs. Frank Bergen of this city. The family comes from Chase Mills, this county, where bride-elect's father conducted a hotel. The Nevada paper says:

"Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Mallen an­nounce the engagement of their daughter, Lillian, to Mr. Oacar Barker of San Francisco."

Tucked away amid a wealth of flowers was the foregoing on a card at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Mallen yesterday afternoon when the five hundred club assembled. The secret of the session was revealed when each guest found at her cover on the dining table the card an­nouncing the engagement of Miss Mallen to Oscar Barker.

Felicitations were profuse when the announcement was made and the young hoetses of the club bore the honors bravely. She has been a mem­ber of the club Blnce its organization and one of its most potent social forces. Most of her life Miss Mallen has spent at Nevada City. She at­tended the public school and was graduated several years ago with honors. Later she took a course in a business college for the purpose of qualifying herself to act as secretary to her father, who is manager of the Brunswick mine at Grass Valley. In this capacity she has shown excellent business judgment.

'There was a meeting of. the SPln-vllle County Board of License Com­missioners in Prescott last Tuesday. The matter- of transferring the Mansion House license, at Prescott, from the tenant to the owner of the place, was discussed. The commis­sioners could not see their way to make the requested transfer and ac­cordingly cut off the Mansion House license altogether. Mr. Ritchie was given two months to dispose of his stock of liquors, about the end of April. .The term expires at the end of June, when the Mansion House "goes dry."
