Striking Paragraph fo Menage.
The following paragraphs arc
taken from the president's mes
sage to congress.
Perhaps the most important
question presented to this admin
istration is that of economy in
expenditure and sufficiency of
revenue."
The president says the cost of !
living has increased, but does
net blame the tariff for it.

"The report of the secretary
shows that the ordinary expendi
tures for the current fiscal year
ending June 30, 1910, will exceed
the receipts by $34,075,620. If"
to this deficit is added the sum to
be disbursed for the Panama ca
nal, amounting to $38,000,000,
and $1,000,000 to be paid on the
public debt, the deficit of ordi
nary receipts and expenditures
will be increased to a total deficit
of $73,075,620. This deficit the
secretary proposes to meet by the
proceeds of bonds issued to pay
th.i cost of constructing the Pan
ama canal. I approve this prq
posal." The president says the cost of
engineering and constructing the
canal, which will be completed
January 1, 1915, will be $297,766,
000, as originally estimated.
Other expenses increase the cost
by $75,435,000 to a total of $375,
201, 000.

"They will furnish a satisfac
tory substitute for the system of
a government guaranty of depos
its which, with deference to those
who advocate it, seems to me to
have in it the seeds of demorali
zation to conservative banking
and certain financial disaster."
The president earnestly rccom
mended the passage of a ship
subsidy bill.

"I urgently recommend to con
gress that a law be passed re
quiring that candidates for mem
bers of the house of representa
tives and committees in charge of
' their candidacy and campaign,
file in a proper office of the U.
S. government, a statement of
the contribution received and of
the expenditures incurred in the
campaign for such elections and
that similar legislation be enact
ed in regard to all other elections
which arc constitutionally within
lie, control of congress.
Tke Statehood Paragraph.
In his annual message to con
gress, President Ta't makes the
following recommendation with
reference to statehood:
"Tim successful party in the
last election in its national plat
form declared in favor of the ad
mission as separate states of New
Mexico and Arizona and I recom
mend that legislation appropriate
to this end be adopted. I urge,
however, that care be exercised
in the preparation of the legisla
tion affecting each territory to
secure deliberation in the selec
tion of persons as members of
the convention to draft a consti
tution for the incoming states,
and I earnestly advise that such
constitution after adoption by
the convention shall be submitted
to the people of the territories
for their approval at an election
in which the sole issue shall be
the merits of the proposed con
stitution and if the constitution
is defeated by popular vote, means
shall be provided in the enabling
act for a new convention and the
drafting of a new constitution.
I think it vital that the issue as
to the merits of the constitution
should not be mixed up with the
selection of state officers and that
no election of state officers should
be had until after the constitu
tion has been fully approved and
finally settled upon."
Teachers' Examination.
The regular mid-winter exam
inatinn of teachers will be held
in the public school building at
Carrizozo, N. M., on Friday and
Saturday, January 14th and 15th,
1910. All permits expire on the
date of this examination, and all
teachers holding permits and de
siring to continue teaching are
required to secure a certificate at
this examination. The issuance
of two permits in succession is
forbidden; hence the necessity for
holders of permits to secure u ccr
tificate in order to draw salary
from the public school fund. The
Territorial Board expects to fur
nish questions for first, second
and third grade certificates. The
examination will begin at eight
o'clock, Friday morning, and a
specifically allotted time will be
given to each subject until the
examination is completed.
