LIKED CAMP AT CULPEPER
Governor Names Tax Delegates

Committee.
Making bis official report to the
Adjutant-General on the encampment
of his regiment at Culpeper. Colonel
Robert F. Leedy. of the Second Infan?
try, who has a habit of saying what
he thinks, hands a few remarks to
the Southern Hallway officials. He
says that the hardships and anxieties
experienced by him in scheduling,
"owing to the obvious Incompetent y
of the chief authorities of the 'long
haul' road (the Southorn), were an
abomination which he hopes to never
again be afflicted with."
With the camp Itself. Colonel Leedy
; was mur/ pleased. Ho found there
I every comfort and convenience, both
I for mon and animals, and It was left
? in good sanitary condition by Colonel
' Perry nnd the First Regiment, which
preceded his command.
The routine of work he regards as
I excellent, but thinks it was perhaps
I a little too strenuous for such hot
? weather.
Because of the Inability of Captain
? Greene, the regimental chaplain, to be
1 present a? camp. Captain J. Cleveland
Hall, of Danville, the chaplain of the
First Infantry, was detailed to remain
i on duty- Colonel Leedy expresses his
I appreciation of the work done by Dr.
I Hall, which was so much applauded
. that the men marched to his quar
; ters before leaving in the mud nnd
I rain to thank htm. Finally, the grat
? itude of the regimental commander is
' extended to the people of Culpeper
j for their hospitality, and hope Is ex
I pressed that the regiment will go

NEW STATES WILL
BE DEMOCRATIC
Arizona and New Mexico Are
Certain to Line Up With
That Party.
HOLD TAFT RESPONSIBLE
People Condemn Him for His;
Arbitrary Attitude on Orig?
inal Resolution.
[Special i.e. Tho Tlmos-Dlsoatch. I
Washington, D. C, August 22.?It is
j the opinion of Chairman Flood, of the
' House Committee 6n Territories, tha.
j both Arizona ami New Mexico will be
solidly Democratic. The resolution, as
signed by Taft yesterday. is iden?
tical in every particular with the Kloud
' resolution which passed the House on
May 23. and the Senate on August S, and
I was vetoed by the President on August
I l?, except, in accordance with the ]
views of the President's veto message.
\ It requires the people of Arizona to
: eliminate the recall of the Judiciary j
; from their Constitution before that]
Torrltory can be admitted as a State.
The passage of this resolution Is a ]
triumph for Mr. Flood, as there was
considerable opposition on the Uemo
cratic side of the House to yielding to'
the President In any particular In ref?
erence to It. The original Flood reso?
lution was regarded us absolutely fair
to both States. It proposed changes in
both the New Mexico and Arizona Con- i
StltUtlons, but submitted these changes
to the people of the respective Terrl-|
torlos at the elections which are to be
held for the election of county and
State officers and members of Congress.
In other words, the people were allowed
to vote as their convictions dictated
upon these questions, without reference
to Its effect upon statehood. Mr.
Taft's veto required the people of Ari?
zona to vote a particular way. They
could get statehood if they voted for
an amendment to their Constitution
which met these views: If they did not.
they were denied statehood.
Mr. Flood and his committee took
the position that while the action of
the President was arbitrary, the Inter?
ests of the Territories demanded that,
under existing conditions, they yield
to the President and get the statehood
resolution passed. This was done af?
ter a warm debate In the House on Sat?
urday, and to-day the President signed
the resolution.
Sure for Democrats.
As indicative of the sentiment In
Arizona upon this question. Speaker
Clark received the following telegram
yesterday:
"The Democratic party of Arizona
Is eternally gratoful for the the states?
manlike action of the Democrats of
the House and Senate in passing the
Flood resolution. The responsibility
for nullifying It Is now on the Presi?
dent alone. We now earnestly beg
you If the bill cannot pass both houses
over his veto to amend the Flood reso?
lution In the single particular of mak?
ing the elimination of the Judlcary
recall mandatory and pass It again
before the special session ends. The
President's action, following the stand
the Democrats took for Arizona, re?
lieves the Democratic party of any
responsibility for the coercion, and
Arizona will go overwhelmingly Dem?
ocratic. The people of Arizona and
the Democratic party earnestly pe?
tition you thus to give us statehood.
"J. P. DIM.ON.
Chairman Territorial Democratic Cen?
tral Committee.
"Attest:
"J. H. Robinson. Secretary."
Mr. Flood said: "A good mnnv
Arizona and New Mexican poople
have been here, and they assert that
the fight made by the Democrats upon
this statehood mntter will insure both
of these new States to the Democratic
party. Arizona Is certainly Demo?
cratic, and every Indication now Is
that New Mexico also will go the same
way. Indeed, it was thought the atti?
tude of the Republicans In endeavor?
ing to prevent statehood was due to
the fact that they realized that both
of these States would elect Demo?
cratic electors In 1912. P. H. McG.
