to the army bill prohibiting the i'm
portation Of spirituous liquors in the
Philippines, except for medicinal use,
under regulations to be prescribed by

In the debate on the canteen pro-
vision Of the army bill, Senator Teller

sulting from the sale Of liquor among
the troops in the Philippines, and
strongly urged the suppression of the
liquor traffic 10 the islands.
Mr.. Lndge assured Mr.. Teller that
the conditions in this respect had
greatly improved in the Philippines
In the last few months, and that
Judge Taft, chairman Of the Philip
pine commission, hid imposed the
strictest laws and regulations, which
had in large degree destroyed the
liquor traffic there.
Senator Teller still believed that
more heroic treatment should be ad-
ministered In the case.
Mr.. Lodge expressed his stroLg ap-
proval of the sentiments of the Colo.
RADIO senator, and at the suggestion of
the latter he prepared and introduced
the amendment prohibiting the i'm.

FLoUR1sHING TERRITORIES.

DVOCATES CT the early admission of Ari-
II iona, New Mexico and Oklahoma to state

upon the conditions of those Territories and the
bright prospects before them of increase in popu-
laton and in wealth He comedies to each of them
larger population in 1000 than shown by the
returns, and in other ways strengthens their posi-
ton before the country.
Of Arizona he says the population is estimated at
fully $4,000, and points that number of ocali-
ties in the Territory complain of injustice done by
the takers. Thus Phoenix was given popula-
ton of only 5544 but at the city election in May
1901, the registration Of voters showed 23I7 names
indicating population Of at least 10000 AS an ex-
PLANTATION of the discrepancy it is said the census was
taken in midsummer, when large proportion of the
people of Phoenix were at the seaside and other sum-
mer resorts. There 235o3 children of school age
in the Territory the assessed valuation of property
as finally fixed by the Board of Equalization is
S38,853S3I The real wealth OF the people, however,
is much larger than that as much personal property
and mining property escapes taxation 1t is added:
The quality OF Arizona citizenship is said to be of
the highest character; the population is typically
American and the percentage of illteracy is thought
to be smaller than in any State in the Union"
OF New Mexico the report says: "The estimated
total population at present is 100000 exclusive of In
dams. which latter number I2,2o6. The Governor
takes strong grounds against the injustice as he de-
clares, which the recent does in accreditinp
the Territory with population OF but 1e531o in 1000
He asserts that the registration in October 1000
which showed 5o2o7 voters in the Territory, should
fair basis for arriving at just estimate of
the population. Few of the large number of voters
are without families, and among the miners in
the Territories more than half have families Reckon

voter would make the total estimate of population

The taxable value Of property in New Mexico is

and the percentage of ilteracy less than in three
fourths of the States Social life in the Territory
has generally the aspects as in the States, with
out there being any class distinctions. The COM

have equal opportunities for advancement and pre-
ferment"
1t Will be perceived that these statements constitute
strong and valid arguments for comforting statehood
upon the three Territories Each of them is
more popuous than several of the States, and each
has ample resources and area for further growth in
population and in industry. They are occupied by
people who are quite capable of selgovernment and
accordingly there seems to be no reason why their
desire for statehood should not be granted
