Washington, Jan. 2S.-The following
is Senator Lodges coast defense bill,

amounts as may be required to carry

after described. Said bonds shall be

STATEHOOD FOR ARIZONA.

Utah has just become State and
now Arizona is knocking at the doors
of Congress demanding admission in
the Union on an equality with the
original thirteen.
The Governor of Arizona bases the
claim Of that territory 10 statehood
principally upon its remarkable in
crease in population since the census
of 1890 and its great natural resources,
agricultural and mineral, which are
now being rapidly developed. If his
estimate of the population is true
there are now $1,000 white people in
Arizona, or an increase of 100 per cent.
in the last five years; for in 1890 there
were only 10000 people in the terri
tory o. whom $4,000 were Indians.
Now it is claimed the population is
114,000.
The bullion and metal products of
Arizona exceed all others in the pro-
portion Of to /, and the remarkable
increase in It's population has been
principally in the mining districts.
Though agriculture. outside of a limit
ed area, is impossible without irriga-
ton, the lands are exceedingly fertile
and the water supply from the rivers
and large streams that pillow their way
through the territory is abundant. Out
Of the ~ ,000,0 900 acres in the territory
the Governor says that 100000 are
capable Of reclamation to agriculture,
which leaves. after allowing for the
already cultivated areas, about one
half OF the whole acreage fit for Guilt
yation. But the enormous ranges for
cattle grazing are scarcely surpassed
in fertility and extent in the Union.
One Of the principal results that
would follow the admission of Arizona
to the Union would be to add two new
recruits TO the silver force in the Sen
ate
