Will Not be Admitted.

Senator Quay is fighting for the
admission of three new states, I'M
der what is called the Omnibus Bill,
Oklahoma, New Mexico and Ari-
IONA. The House passed this bill
at its last session. The majority of
the Senate Committee on Territories
advocate the admission at this time
of one state, composed of the Terri
tories of Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory. The House bill-the
Omnibus Bill-omits the Indian
Territory from the territory en-
bracing what is to constitute the
three new states. 1t is intimated
that Quay will win, and secure the
passage of the Omnibus Bill with
the aid of Democratic Senators.
But its passage in the Senate does
not make it law. The Presidents
signature will be necessary to adj
NIT the new states and there is not
much doubt but what Roosevelt will
veto the bill if it passes. Indeed he
is said to have intimated to the New
Mexico delegation who called on
him recently that he was not favor
able to the admission of New Mex
leo at the present time.

Senator Beveridge, chairman of
the committee on territories, reports
against the admission of New Mex
leo and Arizona as states, saying the
condition of these territories does not
entitle the people to statehood.
While New Mexico has sufficient
population to assume the duties and
responsibilities of statehood the
most of the people are not Ameri-
canized. Most of them do not speak
the English language and they are
behind in education. The popula-
ton of Arizona is not sufficient to
warrant the admission of this terri
tory as state and the lawless ele-
ment is so large as to be a menace
to good government. He reports
in favor of the admission of Okla
homa in combination with the
Indian Territory as one state. The
population of the two territories is
some 100000 and the people are in
telligent and progressive. Senator
Quay opposes the Oklahoma-Indian
Territory scheme for statehood
pleading that the government has
treaties with the Indian tribes that
hold good until 1906 and further
that statehood for the Indian Terri
tory in connection with Oklahoma
would ruin the Indians inasmuch as
they could get whiskey under state
hood.

]. Pierpont Morgan is organizing
all the anthracite coal mining COM
panies into a trust-a combination
under the control of one head. In
this way he claims to be able to
allay all dissatisfaction among en-
ployes in the mines and to give
satisfaction to consumers of hard
coal. The combination will be eff
fective in dispensing with the numer-
Gus middlemen and result in the
saving to the consumers of coal at
least $25,ooo,ooo year, over the old
method.

The returns of the state election
are study, especially as to the vote
for the head of the tickets. 1t is evil
dent from an inspection of the re-
turns that a large number of Repub-
leans did not vote their ticket. In
the first place the total vote was
light, nearly 100000 less than that
cast in 1900 and only three-ffths of
the possible vote of the state. The
Republican vote was $4,000; the
Democratic, $4,000. Con governor
it was 10000 more) La Follette's
plurality was 47,6o2, while the larg-
est Republican plurality was 59,689,
over 1900 more than that for
governor. Rose received 1858,
while the average vote given on
other candidates in the Democratic
ticket was $4,000, showing that
Rose led the rest Of the Democratic
ticket by 1000. con the face of
the returns" this would seem to in
dictate that ten or twelve thousand
Republicans voted for Rose. But
that is but small part of the story.
1t is known that many Democrats
voted for La Toilette. How large
a number of voters changed of-Re-
publicans voting for Rose and Demo
Gratis voting for La Follette-cannot
be accurately determined, but guess
may be made by comparing the votes
in the several precincts with that
cast at the previous election. Max
ing this comparison in a number OF
precincts and using the figures in
the result as an average for the
balance it would appear that there
were not less than $4,000 OF these
changelings. IF one is given to
philosophizing he will naturally ask
the reason for this indirection. Why
should Republicans refuse to vote
their ticket and what was there in
the situation to induce Democrats
to vote for a Republican governor
| There must be a reason for it. A
considerable number of Republicans
voted for Rose; larger number
did not vote at all because of their
dissatisfaction. There is also some
thing significant in the fact tina
these Republicans who refused tc
vote for Gov. La Toilette were no
the young men who have just at
tanned their majority; they were M
neophytes in politics or recent re
cruits. They were mostly the oldel
men; those who had helped to make
the Republican party what it is
who have given good counsel in it
councils and worked successfully fol
its success; who know what Republi
canism is and do not want to see j
in jeopardy.

We are pleased to notice that the
Presidents message does not please
everybody. If it were satisfactory
to the Democratic leaders it would
not be in accord with Republican
sentiment. 1t is the message of a
Republican and voices the views OF
the dominant party. The opposi-
ton hoped the President would say
some foolish thing that would re-
dound to the injury of the Republi-
can administration and are dis
appointed. Inasmuch as Roosevelt
is unsophisticated and talks a good
deal with his mouth his political
enemies have watched to see him
get his foot in it.

SUGAR ON HAND

The Cuban market is strong and the
unsold balance is evidently in strong
hands.
Latest cable reports from Java esti-
mate the crop there a 100000 tons max
imum, considerably less than original
figures. Out of the above crop over
900 900 tons have already been disposed
of to shippers, and for consignment,
and the market is firm in consequence.
An interesting feature of the situation
lies in the fact that shipments from
Java to China and Japan will probably
aggregate 900 tons, and the efforts
to find a market for their sugars in the
Orient have apparently been success
full.
