A NEW STATE
Oklahoma Territory Wishes to Become
State

KING FISHER, o. T., Jan. 14.--The
Inter-Partisan Statehood Convention,
which was in session here until a late
hour last night, brought over thou
sand delegates and other interested per-
sons to King Fisher. The convention,
which was wholly harmonious, adopted
unanimously d resolution asking the
present Congress to pass an enabling
act providing for the admission of Okla
bona as a State.
There was no strife as to the question
of single statehood or double statehood
The resolution simply petitions for
statehood with such boundaries as Con-
gress may direct, with the simple recon-
mendation that If the Indian Territory
shall be included the residents in each
of the FIVE civilized tribes and Oklahoma
shall vote separately upon the accept
ance or rejection Of a State constitution
which shall be operative for such of
said sections as accept 1t.
The convention also adopted resolu-
tion urging the passage Of the free home
bill, which has passed the Senate and is
now pending in the House Of Represen-
tatives.

Taxing Foreigners

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE Depart
ment of Taxes and Board of Assess
ments of this city has issued it's notice
Of taxation on foreign corporations, re-
curing them to make a report to the
Tax Department in accordance with the
new rule thereon.
A more energetic crusade against for
eign corporations by the Tax Depart
ment seems to be carried on this year,
from the fact that not only are corpora
tions taxed which are organized under
the laws of other States and are known
to be doing business in this State, but
the Tax Department has had an eX-
animation made of records of other
States, especially of New Jersey, and
persons registered there as doing bust
ness in New York have been served with
notices of taxation.
