THEY MAY GET IN.
The Advocates of the1Bill, for Ad-
mission of New States are
Still Hopeful.

Yesterday slegislative news, from
Washington, afflrms that the sup
porters of the bills, for the advance
ment of New Mexico and Oklahoma
to Statehood, are still hopeful and
full of courage. Several times in
the course of the present session
the two statehood bills have been
on the eve of receiving considera-
ton from the House, but each time
they were sidetracked by more i'm
portant legislation or party misun
derstandings. The bill for the ad-
mission of Utah and Arizona were
passed by the House early in the
session, but since have been hung
up in the Senate. An attempt was
made at the same time by the Re
publicaus to secure an agreement
for the consideration Of the New
Mexico and Oklahoma bills together
but Speaker Crisp told Delegate
Flynn a point of order would be in
order against such an arrangement,
and being undoubtedly the case,
the attempt was abandoned The
Speaker assured Gen. Wheeler,
Chairman of the Committee on
Territories, that the bill for New
Mexico would secure a hearing after
the Indian appropriation bill, which
comes up this week. The Oklahoma
bill will follow that of New Mexico,
unless an unforeseen, circumstance
should arise to delay one or both,
New Mexico is Democratic, and, if
admitted, will add two the Demo
cratic majority in the Senate. But
Oklahoma is Republican, so the sue
cess Of the bill for the admission of
the latter is very doubtful. More
over, there has been much disa-
greement in Oklahoma over the de-
tails of the statehood plan, which
has been complicated by the oppo-
sition of the Indian tribes to it.
The Republicans feared if the New
Mexico bill passed other legislation
would be pressed forward to dis
place Oklahoma, therefore it would
be to their satisfaction to secure
consideration in the case of Okla
homa first.

A gentleman from the vicinity of

that vaccination does not prevent
it, that an undertaken buried thirty

Frequent onslaughts

On the delicate membrane of the
bowels and stomach with drastic
purgatives must have their natural
consequence-to weaken and disa-

we're penalties for infringements of
her laws, and there is no more glar-
ing one than that which consists in
frequent and unnecessary dosing
with violent cathartics. This is,
however, the course pursued by
many unwise people who seem to
think that the bowels, unless con-
stantly relaxed, are not in a healthy
state. When a laxative is really
