Under those officers there was no
ridicule cast upon Old Probabilities.
Those generals employed civilian Off

they had opportunity to do the work of

locks.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1s.-Gov. Ordway
was at the capitol all day, engaged in
conversation with gentlemen of both
houses, who might be influential in the
final passage of the omnibus bill. He
said: I'VE have got one foot into the
Union and nothing can now keep us
out. We are bound to step over the
line into statehood very soon. Its now
a question Of hours instead of months
and years. Harmony seems to prevail
in the legislature. Jordan is happily
divided against itself, and we shall
march over dry shod into the promised
land" 1t will devoye upon the state
department, as sOCn as the proposed
new states are admitted, to provide a
new flag for each consulate, naval
vessel and naval steamer abroad, and
every federal building in the United
States; the flag to contain the ad-
ditiOnal stars to represent the new
states of the Union. 1t is the custom to
unfurl these flags with national sa-
lure when received. and good deal of
parts of the world to celebrate the
event. as South Dakota will be admitted
in advance of the other territories pro-
vided i'll the bill. The official star
spangled banner will undergo at least
two changes within the next twelve
months, and Ben Butler. who has a
monopoly of the manufacture of bunt-
ing in this country, will be correspond
ingly happy. The cOlors will look like
the Milky Way when all the states
are in.
SMALL sNAGS IN SIGHT.
After noon the cOnferreeS on the om
nibus territorial bill were in session two
hours without coming to conclusion,
They exchanged views at length and
separated to consider them over night,
and to meet again tomorrow. The re-
port of difficulty in reaching an agree
ment caused surprise. for it was be-
lieVed that after the action of the house
last week the meeting of the
conferrees would be purely formal.
But it is intimated that the
house conferrees are inclined to insist
that their views upon all points of diff
ference yet remaining shall be ac-
cepted. AS yet the senate cOnferreeS
are not inclined to cOncede this. 1t ap
pears that several matters of detail,
which were supposed to be of minor
Importance. have suddenly become
stumbling blocks in the way of agree
ment. At the conference to-day, for
instance, there was considerable dis
cussion of the dates of elections in
South Dakota, the house conferrees fa-
voring an election of the legislature on
October, which would permit the newly
elected senators and representatives to
take part in the organization of the
next congress in December. The SEN
ate proposition contemplates an earlier
election. There are also differences of
views respecting the location of cap
ttolS, which remain to be settled.
