ADMITTING THg TERRITORIES.

A ptrong fight will be made al the
present session OF congress for the ad-
mission OF the three territories. New
Mexico. Arizona and Oklahoma. The
Denver Republican says that the OPP
position Of the east Is probably not as
strong AZ II was a few years ago when
political considerations caused many
persons on the Atlantic scaboard 10
oppose the increase OF western
strength Ia the senate. But there re-
mains no small amount OF Ignorance
and prejudice In that quarter which
must be overcome In order 10 secure
the passage Of the requisite enabling
acts.
Justice and the interests OF tne
trrnemissoun region alike demand
that these three territories be ad.
mltted. They have population enough
to maintain state governments, and
their people desire to be admitted.
This should stop all opposition; for
when these two factors are present u
IL n denial Of fundamental principle
to refuse permission TO erect state
| governments.
The doctrine OF the right OF selfgov-
eminent is fundamental. Upon Il our
whole system IL founded, But the in.
habltants OF territories are not indie

II Is only through the erection Of
state governments that the people Of

The most important OF these Ia the
luty OF shopping early. The tardy

ions cannot do their shopping early In

most shoppers can do so N they will

BILE the work OF the clerks will be

less confusion and less hardship for all
