In the United States senate, Senator
Wilson, Of Iowa, replying to Senator Bat
ler's attack on the Harrison bin 10 admit
south Dakota as a stste, contended that
the senators who should insist that every
step for the formation ofnew states should
be in accordance with their own views of
form displayed but little knowledge Of
the processes by which states have been
made. The most loyaland patriotic state
had laid their foundations in violation of
congressional action. Our hardy pioneers
had carried civilization yearly westward,
and planted the states as mile STOKES to
mark the onward progress Of their jour
ney. Ii had taken the United States
government a long to understand the
movement ofthe pioneers. Tie action
Of the people of Dakota, Mr., Wilson ill.,
sisted, was in every sense proper. peace
ful and constitutional, and no narrow
partisanship or political lies should be
permitted to interfere with the manly
and honorable demands of its people to
admission as a state. The population of
south Dakota was sufficient 10 eHtitIe her
to two representatives in congress. Nj.
Wilson compared the conditions Of south
Dakota in wealth, population and re-
sources with those of many other states
at the time Of their admission, and argu.
ed that the new applicant for statehood
presented a case that challenged criticism

fDakota gets into the union two or
three other territories VIII probably fol-
low in her wake. Washington territory
is nearest on her heels, a bill having
been reported to the senate last week
fayoring its admission. The new state
would be larger taan all New England
and it contains i75, goo inhabitants. II is
curious to note that the recent rapid
growth Of Washington territory has at
tractcd SO little notice, according TO the
census of 1880 it had Il population Of 75.-
ll6. But then in 1880 admission to the

1t is explained hat the reason some
democratic senators are so anxious not
to have the president submit to the SEN
ate information in regard TO his new APP
p~oiHtments, Is because the publication Of
such papers would disclose the fact that
in some cases senators haze, while pro-
