years past. In his recent interview
with the President. the Senator de

cry territory that Is admitted will have
at least three votes in the Presidential
electoral college that is to be elected in
1904. 1t is practically certain that Ok
lahoma viii be admitted by the Fifty
seventh Congress- and therefore it may
be counted as a factor in the next Pres
idential election. There is much more
speculation about the manner than
about the fact of admission. The Fair
banks bill. introduced in the Fifty-sixth
Congress. provided for the immediate
admission of Oklahoma, leaving 1t to
the discretion of Congress later to EN-
body the Indian Territory or to admit
the latter as separate State. The bill
failed to secure consideration for lack
of time, but doubtless the same features
will be embodied i'm a new measure at
the first session of the next Congress,
for the Oklahomahs are impatient.
Sentiment is pretty well divided as to
the combination of the two Territories
, in one State. Doubtless politics will
have a good deal to do with the sOlu-
tion of the question. Oklahoma Origi-
nally was Republican by a small ma
jority. The occupation of the new In
dian lands has added about 100000 pop
ulatiOn to the territory without chang
ing the political complexion very much,
the general belief being that the Re
publican majority has been decreased
rather than increased. The population
is now about One-half million, and that
of the Indian Territory Is not far from
the same figures. The latter is strong
ly Democratic. and should the two be
combined in one State the electoral vote
would go to the Democratic ticket. a
contingency that is likely to be guarded
against by the Republican Congress.
The two Territories as one State would
give seven electoral votes, while Okla
hOma alone would furnish four votes.
New Mexico and Arizona are sure to
renew their efforts to attain the dignity
of Statehood. The former has less than
100000 population, and the latter about
12o.OOO, and under Statehood would be
entitled to three electoral votes each.
New Mexico is close politically. al
though at present represented in Con-
gress by Republican delegate. Ari-
zOna is Democratic.
If Oklahoma and Indian Territory
should be admitted as one State. and if
New Mexico and Arizona were also
taken in before 1904, the Democrats
would be practically sure of ten new
electoral votes. with a fighting chance
for the other three. This possibility
has an important relation to the other
possibility Of close national vote. and
for that reason it is to be believed that
the Republican Congress will try to
make sure Of the vote Of Oklahoma
