Everyone in Holbrook is ex pected to attend the ball Mon day.

The measure providing state hood for New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma, will be reported to the house on Friday in the for of an omnibus bill, .says a special dispatch from Washing ton to the Denver News. Altho the New Mexico people claim they stand a better show for ad mission to statehood than either Oklahoma or Arizona, they arc willing that all three of the bills shall go in together for the sake of a more favorable considera tion on the part of the democrats. It is claimed that the political complexion of both New Mexico and Oklahoma are dccididly re publican, while Arizona has a leaning towards the democracy. Should New Mexico or Oklaho ma therefore be put forward as the likely candidates the demo cratic votes in the house might be lacking. The republicans on the other hand might not con sent to Arizona's being pushed forward. Comprised in an omni bus bill three territories will have an apparently equal show, and there is little doubt of the bill being passed in the house. A hanging up is predicted in the senate, although Delegate Rodey exhibits figures in connection with that side of congress that are most convincing. Senators Penrose and Quay of Pennsylva nia are said to be working for the bill. Senator Elkins, former ly of New Mexico, will of course support it, and with the advoca cy of all the western men, both democrats and republicans, the statehood bills, according to Mi'. Rodey, will see daylight eyen in the senate. 1 F. J. WATTRON, 'I nPITWIJ TXT Drugs, Medicines, Chemicals Fancy and Toilet Articles.
