THE STATE OF WASHINGTON

1t il unfortunate that there was
the least 'hesitancy among the nswspa-
pers of the Territory in giving their
support to tho bill introduced ny Mr..
Brents for creating q State out Of
Washington. There 10 danger that the
thoughtlcss antagonism Of some, the
envious opposition Of others, and the
scheming hostility Of others may re.
tard the passage Of the bill which the
House Committee have about conclud.
ed to recommend. Tho opposition Of
many was based on the idea that the
people Of the Territory would he called
upon to psy, the. cost Of holding ano'h-
er- convention. This reason disappear
ed as soon a. the bill was re-read and
the provision for the payment BY the
United States Of the expense Of franz
ing the consultation was understood.
The opposition based on the idea that
it was n plan to delay admission was
left without foundation a. soon a
tho objectors discovered that tho de.
fects in the 1878 constitution could be
rcmedied quicker under Brentz' bill,
than they could were that document
the organic law Of the State today
The opposition Of the Lewiston papers
ceased as soon as they discovered thai
North Idaho WIS to form part Of thu
new State. The objection based on tn,
probable increase of taxation to follow
Statehood is an objection to be met a
all stages Of Territory's progress t
$ admission. The only other objection
q to Brentz' hill worthy Of note come
. exclusively from Puget Sound, wher
:. the Olympia papers fear that q ne,
1 convention would take away their Car
J. ital, and Seattle fear that it would NO
! make it the duty of the new State I
!, provide for their University. Thes
reasons arc based on sel6shness an
Y envy and should have no weight wit
e Congress. We are confident that til
u merchants, manufacturers, banker
business men and citizens generally {
Il the Territory, with here and there q
st insignificant exception, favor the pa
a; sage Of Brcntz' bill. They arc willin
;, to pay the expenses Of Statehood f'
- - the privilege of chosing their own of
" GERS from Governor down. They q
or tired of paying as much taxes to su
d port the National Government as res
q dents Of States do, and being deni'

PROGRESS OF BRENTZ' BILL
Especial Correspondence of the Union.]
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8,

Especial Correspondence OF the Union.1 |
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.
Ed. UNIoN:-The prospect now for
an early and favorable report on Mr..
Brentz' bill providing for an enabling
act for the admission of your Territory
as one of the States, is very bright in
deed. He has been before the Com
mittee on Territories several times,
arguing and explaining al the points
in detail, and producing some very
strong points in his statistics as to the
admission Of other States outside of
the original thirteen, and has succeeded
in convincing the committee that very
few if any of the Territories had the
same amount of population at the time
of their admission into the Union that
Washington Territory now has. His
argument was very interesting, concise
and exhaustive of the whole subject.
He has been preparing resume of his
points and will have them printed to
present to the committee before it
makes its final report to the House,
and that report will be favorable. There
has been considerable opp sition in the
committee room as to tho boundaries
of the proposed new State, coming prin-
cipally from Mr.. Ainslie, the Delegate
from Idaho, and from Gov. Neal, the
Governor Of that Territory. They both
object to the absorption of the north
western corner of Idaho in the new
I State, which includes Lewiston. Mr.
Brentz, in opposition, explained fully
to the committee that it was the desire
and wish of the people of that portion
Of Idaho to be annexed for the purpose
of becoming part of the proposed new
State; and also callsd the attention O
the committee to the fact that the Idaho
Legislature had memorialized Congress
W HuSc A>oItucIu luaHo dHueAeu
What the result will be it is hard t,
determine just at present, but as ther
are some men on the committee havin,
nj very narrow and contracted ideas al ou
most things, they will no doubt wisl
to carry their sublime statemanshi
into practical exempliication by report
ing the bill without the annexed par
of Idaho. 1t would be better perhap
4 for Mr.. Brentz to accept this, as l lear
' that Idaho is deeply in debt in Tel
ritorial matters, and the people nigh
get into wrangle about the amour
the proposed new State should assum
of Idaho's debt. There is considerabl
B. of lobby here, and very influential i
many respects, to help get the Dakot
bill through. They mean business, b.
l think Brentz even handed will |
able to accomplish just as much an
= more than if A6was backed by an
lobby. His influence is becoming qui
potential amongst all the Republica
members. He possesses that great d
sideratum in puolic rule that suarit'
ia modo, fortiter in re. which alwa,
tells The Speaker, Mr.. Keifer, ha
without any solicitation on his PAT
placed Mr.. Bren.z on the committee {

,rs. of considerably enlarging the sphere
in his usefulness to his constituents, as &

But strong drink brings no glory with it.

Honor, that was hrarcr than life, is to
him an unmcaning word. Trust, that no

ment of private claims. =. Holman offered an
amendment providing that the jurisdiction of
the court shall not extend to or include any
claim against the United States growing out of
the destruction of property by the army or
navy during the rebellion or for use and occupa-
ton OF real estate by any part of the forces of
the United States at the seat of war; nor to any
claim against the United States which is now
barred by virtue of the provisions of any law of
the United States 1t further provides that in
any case of claim for supplies or stores taken
by or furnished to any part of the military or
naval forces of the United States for their use
during the rebellion, the petition shall aver
that the person who furnished such supplies or
stores or from whom they were taken did not
give any aid or comfort to the rebellion, but
was throughout that war loyal to the govern
ment of the United States, and unless the
court shall, on preliminary inquiry, find that
person was loyal, the court shall not have
jurisdiction of such cause, and the same shall
without previous proceedings be dismissed.
Adopted. The bill then went over till Monday.
