ABOUT ADMISSION.

The New York Commercial Advertiser
is out in q recent virulent editorial
against the admission OF Arizona and
New Mexico to statehood. A chief OBJ
lection to the claims OF New Mexico to
admission is the lawlessness which pre-
walls within in her borders which il
really no objection at all since il law
lessness or absence OF it were made a
test OF statehood rights many districts
now in the Union should be reconverted
into territories; the city OF New York
for instance, southern California and
numerous regions of the south whose
lswlessness is historical.
To Arizona the Commercial Advertiser
objects on the ground oil insufficient
population, and asserts that at the
present rate OF increase the ter.
ritory could not justly claim adj
mission before 1902, statement
which indicates that the AdUertiser's
statistical man is at fault.
The same objection was raised by
Democrats when Nevada, the Dakotas,
Wyoming and every other territory,
which would likely increase Republican
strength in congress, was proposed for
admission. Republicans generally re-
garded the objection as frivolous, and
no doubt the a duertiSer took the same
view.
We trust that the Adrertiser's fear
that tie representation of Arizona
would add to Democratic strength is
not well grounded, but il it is so and
If Arizona should likely be Democratic
for fifty years we still claim the right to
admission. 1t may be said that there
is now and there has been no stand
ard OF population for admission.
or ii there as il is movable staandar d
and we are. therefore. unwilling to be
placed under an Objectionable rule de-
signed for our particular case. We
have wealth, and sufficiently bright
prospects to warrant our admission.
Our claims are stronger than were those
OF the Dakotas, Wyoming and Nevada.
We suspect. however, that the OBJ.
jections, political and other, of the
Commercial Advertiser are Intended only
to mask the stronger antipathy to the
silver proclivities of Arizona and New
Mexico.

DISCARDED BY THREE STATES.


The Original No Mans Land Lay Between
Maryland and Delaware.
When one speaks to you of No Mans
land, don't be so sure that he means to
refer you to that strip of sand prairie
at the far end of the Indian territory,
otherwise "the Panhandle" The or
iginal No Mans land is little tongue
of real estate extending few miles
south of the Mason and Dixon line, be-
tween the states of Maryland and Del
aware. Occasionally some one starts
the story that the aforementioned
tract is, properly speaking, part of
no state-that it is a scrap or leftover
piece of the United States where no
one owns the land upon which he re-
sides. On the maps the land is usually
accredited to the state of Pennsylva-
mia, but high legal authority says that
the claim is very vague and shadowy.
This triangular bit of territory was
marked off in curious manner, as re-
lated by the Philadelphia Press. The
eastern boundary of Maryland was
early determined, but the southern
boundary of Pennsylvania was long a
matter of dispute. Finally Mason and
Dixon began their survey. starting at
the eastern boundary of Maryland,
proceeding westward. At the same
time the northern boundary of Della
ware was declared to be semicircle,
the center of which was New Castle.
In surveying this semicircle it was
found that the circumference did not
touch the boundary of Maryland at it's
junction with the Pennsylvania line.
Thus this three-cornered bit of land
was actually left over, discarded by
three states and finally attached to
Pennsylvania for judicial purposes.

OLD DAYS IN WALL STREET.
Terms That Were Familiar TO the Men on
Change Fifty Years Ago.

Change Fifty Years Ago.
An old Wall street man, long since
retired, speaking Of the numerous
changes in the manners and customs
of the stock exchange, according to the
New York Tribune, said to the writer:
"1he lambs that we have in the street
in these days were called flunlzies when
! was on change, some forty or fifty
years ago. A fiunky we regarded as a
man who, deceived by appearances,
went into the market without any
knowledge of it and generally lost all
he had.
''We have had bulls and bears ever
since can remember, but the familiar
terms bull-backers and bear-traps |
have not heard in a good many years.
They were the moneyed men, the big
spectators who combined with each
other for the purpose of cornering the
market; men such as Keene and Gould,
Drew, Commodore Vanderbilt and
Jacob Little. In those days the brolS-
ers used to play lovingly among
themselves for the purpose of keep
ing up appearances When they had
no customers on whom to practice
they would make large transactions,
which, by mutual understanding, were
not TO be fulfilled, and when the game
was out the securities were thrown
back on the market. These transac-
tions, often published in the CONNER
cial newspaper, went forth to the
world as tho evidences of value and the
condition of the money market to de-
ceive the unwary. The present man
agement of the stock market renders
such transactions impossible. Besides,
the papers of to-day would refuse to
publish them"

The Panama sDl, Hat.

One OF the greatest curiosities of the
Panama isthnus is the vegetable silk
tree, says a writer in the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat. 1t is a plant that
grows from fifteen to twenty feet
high, and in appearance does not differ
greatly from other trees, but the inner
bark is a perfect silky fiber, long.
smooth and strong. The natives separ-
ated it by some method best known to
themselves, the process somewhat re-
sembling that of beating fax. When
once it is separated and spun into
threads, it can be woven into a fabric
so closely resembling silk that it is
difficult for anyone not familiar with
it to distinguish between the two.
This species of silk goods is in high
favor on the isthmus, and a Columbian
belle is never happier than when she
is arrayed in gayly-colored dress
made from the trees in her fathers
yard.

Sleepy Ok Team.
None but southern Cracker" could
endure the long ride through the pine
woods behind the slow-moving oxen. A
whole day is commonly occupied by
them in covering q distance of eight or
+! ten miles. The animals have lazy exc
preston in their eyes and the old two
wheeled cart literally stands still at
times while the animals are drawing
one leg before the other. But cores
pendent says this is suited to the TEN.
permanent of their owner. He rides along
quietly, occasionally rousing himself to
snap his whip with such resounding
I crack that it can be heard for a mile
away in the pine woods. 1t is said that
these people get their name from the
skill which they have obtained in snap
ping their long whip lashes, and it
seems quite reasonable that this should
be true. One can tell the approach of
cracker and his load Of oranges by
the occasional swapping of his whip long
before he is in sight He plows his
fruit orchard with the aid of the same
slow team. Frequently he allows them
to rest while he walks around the place,
and in the middle of the day the sun is
considered too hot for endurance. Man
and beast then rest within the shade
of some tree, while the croaking of the
bullfrogs and the cawing of the buzz
yards are the only indications Of life
around. Fortunately for the crackers
convenience, oranges are fruits that
do not have to be picked rapidly.
He can distribute his labor Of harvest
ing over several months, and this
he generally does The checks that
come back in return for the fruit con-
ers see in the whole year and generally
they do not see much of this. There is
an account at the general merchandise
store in the village that has been run
ming for year, and after this is paid
off the poor man finds very little left
But this does not bother him much. He
returns home to repeat the operation,
and to cultivate his groves so that he
can pay off another bill at the store
which will gradually accumulate again.
There is very little religious life pos
sible to those lonely people in the
southern pine woods In the smaller
places where a number Of them are
gathered together a minister occasion
ally visits them to preach, but out in
the desolate pine woods they are left to
their own resources Every day is
about the same with them. They work
little. sleep great deal, and eat
when they are hungry For pleasure
they go hunting and fishing, occasion
ally the whole family takes a fort
nights trip in the big cart TO some dis
tant lake, where they camp out This
is their only outing or vacation. Read
ing material is very scarce, with the
exception OF the small county papers
the latter are very plentiful in Florida.
Schoolhouses are generally few and far
between, and they are mostly small log
