Representative J . E Washington, chair
man of the house committee on territor-
les, states that his committee will unques-
tionably favorably report the bill for the
admission Of New Mexico as a state, and
that it will pass the house. But he has
fears for its fate in the senate.
The senate could not afford to defeat
such bill New Mexico is the Oldest
portion OF this country. She has long
had the wealth and the population for q
state. She had a larger population than
Colorado in 1876, the year of the latter {
admission. She has within the past few
years made wonderful progress. Along
her lines OF railroads, villages, towns and
cities have grown up in large numbers
Schools have been everywhere establish
ed. The American spirit has COME tc
prevail and to control.
Hence, with the recent presidents Of
the admission of Idaho, the Dakotas
Wyoming, Washington and Montana, tc
| longer keep out New Mexico would be
plain injustice, manifest hostility. Il
would give occasion for the charge thai
the Republican senate was influenced
entirely by partisan feeling and lnteres
that it refused admission to the ancien
and opulent territory solely because OF the
fear that she might be Democratic. The
partisan consideration should be allowed
no influence And then even on tina
basis the Republicans have little occasion
to oppose the admission of New Mexico
The chances are about even that sh'
would from the first be Republican
state. And with the kind of population
she is getting, she will surely be Repub
lican within few years. Therefore, there
should be no question of her admission

seem that the Republican policy as out
lined in the senate, is certainly a very
discreet one and viii draw heavily upon
the thinking masses regardless OF party
affiliations, for its hackers and supporters
in the pending contest which has for its
object the lifting up OF silver and giving
it its true position in the monetary marts
of the world. The Republicans would
settle the question for all time, and settle
ii wisely and well for all parties N inter
est-debtor and creditor alike. This is
undoubtedly President Harrisons aim.
We are just u little agreeabIy surprisedto
note Senator Morrii's action i'll reporting
to the senate, after his recent TRADE against
silver, so comprehensive substitute Tor
Senator Teller resolution providing Tor an
international blmetalic conference. This
substitute comes before the senate Rs the
unanimous expression OF its finance
committee land the fact that Mr.. Morrill,
has come round so soon may very proper
ly be attributed to the fact he has had a
pointer from the White house to the
effect that this administration Is not an
enemy to silver but its irmest friend,
anxious to promote the welfare CT the
white metal as money, but cautious, lest
in reaching such basis that the present
monetary conditions may be involved in
trouble by wrongful construction OF this
policy.
| The resolution commits the United
States as welded to the policy OF using
both gold and silver as full legal tender,
nledres the maintenance Of a just parity
between the two metals; provides for the
enlarged monetary use OF silver and toi
giving to that metal equal mintage rights
with gold. An International conference
to bring about these things is provided
for by the resolution. 1t will unquestlon'
ably pass the senate, and as Tor the
house. it dare not decline to do likewise
England, France and possibly Germany
are rpe for such conference now, and
all things considered, the outlook ioi
silver is simply roseate with indications
of an early and final triumph.

The Santa Fe land office has received
notice to withdraw from market thirty
three several tracts of land in this dis

they had been selected by Major Powell,
director of the U. S. Geological survey, to
be held as sites for reservoirs which are
to be constructed for the storage of water

If the United States government pro-
poses to undertake the construction OF
works for tie reclamation of the arid
lands, such reservations rs those Just
made are entirely proper and necessary
but from p' esent appearances the pros.
pect of the government doing anything
Of that sort is not very promising, and the
reserving OF sites for reservoirs that are
not to be built cannot have any other ef
feet than to withhold a large area Of val

States ought to do The general govern.

We consider it the duty OF the government
to do whatever may be necessary to make

be used without irrigation, aud taken the
proceeds, we do not consider it right for
the government now to UNLOAD" the re.

In introducing bill for the admission
of New Mexico into the union, Senator
Plat said that he did it at the request of
the delegate from that territory, and with
out meaning to commit himself to the
support OF the bill. The fact that Mr..
Plat is the chairman OF the senate COM
mi;tee on territories makes this remark of
his particularly interesting. 1t indicates
that he may oppose the admission Of New
Mexico. If he does, he will make a
mistake. He favored the admission OF
Wyoming and Idaho, and New Mexico
exceeds either of those states IN wealth
and population. If the Republican SEN
ators oppose the admission Of New Mexico
and Arizona, it will be charged that they
do so on partisan grounds. This charge
might not be true, and yet it would be an
unpleasant one. No question of party
politics ought to stand in the way Of the
admission of New Mexico and Arizona,
their admission to date from the LIST of
next January.-Denver Republican.

Mr.. Cloudy need not worry. The pros

head the Democratic ticket. But HIPS
nomination would be good test Of the

The practice yesterday of the varsity
team was very poor. Hardly any of the
men were out. Captain King is hobbling
around on crutches. IL is very doubtful
if he will be able to play again this sea-
son. Wheeler is improving and is ex-
pected out in a day or two. Holly is no
better, and it is evident that he will not
play any more. Vincent is still
laid up and will need a big brace to make
his old position. Harold. last years left

season. He will surely make the team He
is not a very brilliant player, but steady.
oman and Hoe are both laid up. The
team, therefore, thas will play against The

up of scrubs. The team will be as fol-
lows:-Left end, McCauley; tackles.
Fiscus at right and Lea at left; guards,
MacFarland and Hall; Ballet will he the
centre; Morse, quarter back; Barnett
and Fuller, halt backs; Anderson, full
back.
Captain King has cancelled the game
with Cornell. IL is not Il championship
game. and as the Princeton men are so
crippled they will be spared for the Yale
game. The men mean to work hard for
that event.
The feeling over the defeat by the Uni
Versity of Pennsylvania still runs high.
They will never feel right until they turn
the tables on the Philadelphia team. The
latter undoubtedly knew the Signals of

The victory of the team of the Univers-
ity of Pennsylvania in the game with
Princeton's eleven was worth $l0.0 900 TO

Yale men are confident that the team
will win the football Championship this
