senate again. Senator Frye, of Maine,
in a speech supporting the bill said,
that 'the only thing that prevented

that American ship yards are building

Statehood seems to be within the
reach of Arizona, New Mexico and
Oklahoma, the house committee on
territories having decided unanimous
I " to report a bill for the admission of
these territories. If density Of pOpu-
Iation is one Of the tests Of fitness for
statehood, Arizona and New Mexico
would surpass Nevada in density and
other states beside Nevada in mum
bers.
Oklahoma has $1,000 more population
than Arizona and New Mexico com
bined- In the past, political consider
atoms, rather than the fitness Of the

been the controlling reasons for ad
mission, but none Of the present ap
pIicants apparently Is welded to either
party, and strong argument for state
hood can be advanced in behalf of the
territories, especially for Oklahoma.
The United States census for 100
gives Arizona a population of 122,931
New Mexico, 1880, and Oklahoms
1896, 331. Arizona exceeds in popula

sIr- COburn Worth Millions 60 the STATE
In Defending les Reputation
Against Defamers.
Topeka State Journal

Topeka State Journal
One OF the most valuable possessions
Of Kansas is the man who sits in front of
the desk Of the secretary Of the state
board Of agriculture in the state house
He is worth millions to the state because
be calls the attention of the world to the
states resources and he invariably calls
down" the states defamers.
A case In point was when a Kansas
City man, who makes his living of Of
his trade Kith Kansas farmers, went up
to Chicago and said a few things in a
national convention which would have
worked an injury TO Kansas had not
Secretary COburn promptly taken notice
Of the speech and fOrcibly counteracted
its influence It is safe to say that the
Kansas City man viii never again say
anything bad about Kansas in public,
especially when he is 50 far from the
truth.
Last sumner the head of the United
States department Of agriculture, a mem
Der Of President Mckinley cabinet,ma
a statement which indicated that Kansa:
and Nebraska did not amount 20 much
/ IN an agricultural way. Mr.. Coburr
hunted up the Washington mans owl
/ figures and proved by them that Kansas
is away up at the head of all the state.
IN the matter Of agricultural products
and Nebraska Is in the immediate neigh
bOrhood. The Washington man looked
foolish and didn't say kansas" again
for three months.
A few days ago another Washington
man, an agricultural bureau expert,
was quOted-from his official reports
tOo-as saying that Kansas never haC
raised sugar beets, never could rails
sugar beets, and ought not TO be givel
a chance to try. Again Mr.. COburn tool
his pen in hand and the Washington
expert will doubtless revise his esti
mate of the prOductiveness Of Kansas il
the sugar beet line.
Mr.. COrbin's idea is that the worlC
must be broken of the habit OF saying
mean things about Kansas. Kansas il
always away up at the head of the pro
cession and has therefore becoue tn,
target of envy. Whenever anybody
liver gets out Of order he says NEAR
things about Kansas. II a public speaker
wants to get Of something smart" h'
takes a shot at Kansas. 1t has become
la habit. Secretary Coburn has decided
that it is a bad habit and he proposes Il
do his duty towards rectifying it. H'
has certainly succeeded as far as he ha.
gone Those who have had experience
with him IN that line have learned theil
lesson, and the rest of the world is learn
| ing it.
It's a good thing. 1t calls attention to
! the vastness Of Kansas resources. II
increases the value Of Kansas securities
in the eastern markets and it raises the
price Of Kansas land at home.

The BuiIdinr of ships.

From the Kansas City World.
An argument in favor Of government
shipbuilding is found in the matter of
price. These are days Of trusts. To
day the vessel contractors may bid
against each other actively. Tomorrow
they may hold up the nation and de-
mand what they will.
An object lesson: In 1890 there was
no competition, and the Indiana cost
1919 per ton and the Oregon s61O. In
1895 the Newport News company was
In the field, and the contractors who
built the Indiana and Oregon were
then willing to build the new Maine
for s4O4 per ton, and the Wisconsin for
1898 per ton. Without competition the
government would doubtless have been
compelled to pay the same price for
the Maine as was paid for the Indiana,
and the Cramps bank account would
have been s., O7O,481 greater.
The Newport News concern broke
one shipbUilders' trust, but has enter
ed, or viii enter, another. No secret
has been made Of the plans. When it
becomes possible for the secretary of
the navy to say to the contractors:
Gentlemen, play fair. You may build
some of the ships and this government
viii build the rest. You must not
gouge or attempt to make more than
honest profits, for this nation can and
viii turn out ships without your aid, /"
then viii the power Of the contractor
be curbed.
Can We build good ships in the gov
eminent yards? The mechanics there
are as good as money VIII hire The
foremen formerly built ships in con-
tract yards. The constructors are the
same men who oversee the work on
war craft, whether built in the navy
yards or by contract.
The engineers Of the navy are the
men who sUperintend the construction
Of the engines and who design them.
The heads Of the bureaus are practical
men
The nation can build good ships. It

A Modest Little Grab.

Kansas City Star.
Senator Frye made a suggestive point
in his subsidy speech when he said:
'The bill does not present a very ser
ious proposition to the senate, which
would authorize in five minutes the
construction Of a battle ship costing
five million dollars and pass a river
and harbor bill carrying go million dol
lars, in a few hours or days"
In other words the subsidy bill is
such a trifiing steal that the senate
ought not to mind it.
Possibly the country ought to be
thankful to the Standard Oil and Steel
interests for letting it off so easily
Upon his return from abroad Mr..
Schwab expressed his surprise that the
nation did not help the Steel corpora
ton export its products by substituting
ships. If Mr.. Schwab correctly voiced
the views of Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. Rock
efeiler, the moderation of their demands
is most commendabIe. They might
have insisted on making the subsidy
say, 80 millions a year; they are content
with comparative trife
Consider the smallness Of their de-
mand, says Mr.. Frye, in effect. Don't
inquire into it too closely. If it's a
steal, it's such a little one.
