Addresses Chicago Twentieth Century
Clubs on the Centurys Duties.

Chicago May 7.-Rev. DR.. Edward
Everett Iale of Roston, yesterday. de-
hVercd Il lecture before the 10th Cen
tury club on The Duties of the Twen-
tieth Century" There duties as Dr.
Hale saw them, resolved themselves
into five, which he proceeded to eX-
plain and urge
The first WIS the construction of Il
four track railroad from Labrador to
Patagonia. This was necessary to keep
the human family from being "squeez-
ed together too much.
The next great duty Of the century,
DR.. Hale said, was the construction of
a similar railroad line across Europe
and Asia, from the Atlantic to the Pa
cihC ocean. with a branch road to Ores
81. This WAS necessary to open up 81
IBERIA to the much squeezed popula-
tons Of eastern countries, 700, 900 Of
whom would be seeking settlement in
this country the coming year 1t
would also serve to divert 100000 Rus
star Jews who wished to settle in this
country, from their purpose and locate
in the land of their ancestors.
The third duty, the speaker said, was
to construct another railroad, in pur-
suance of Cecil Rhodes idea from the
Mediterranean sea to the Cape of Good
Hope.
The fourth duty was the faithful
treatment of the race question, as pre-
scented by the negro. the Indian and the
Chinese.
The last duty was the advocacy of
the doctrine of universal peace.

ly provides that 1T shall be the duty

House. The Senate amendment to the
bill to authorize municipalities in the
Indian territory with 1000 inhabitants
or over to issue bonds was agreed to.
Sherman, \. Y, called up the confer
| ence report on the Irdian appropria-
ton. Many of the most profitab BILE
leases in the reservation had been con-
solidated, he said, into the Florence
Mining Co, which contained in its orig
inal directory Henry c. Payne, now
postmaster general, and benjamin T.;
Odell, now governor of New York.
They had he said. since resigned.
Little declared that the whole propo-
sition was vcnal one
sherman. in charge of the conference
report, defended it and urged the
House not to vote down a report coy-
cring 195 items on account of objection
to Il single one. The provision complain
cd Of, he said, involved only 2G4O acres
out Of 2.700,0u0 acres.
The conference report was adopted
81 to So
The House then began consideration
of the bill to provide enabling acts for
the admission of the territories of Ari-
zona, New Mexico ana Oklahoma.
Knox, Mass, chairman Of the commit
Toe on territories, made an extended
speech in support of the bill. The COM
mittee, he said. We're of the opinion
that if one of the territories was en-
titled 20 admission to statehood all of
them We're. The bill was similar to
former enabling acts except that as to
New Mexico, the constitutional conycn-
i,n 4
name by which the new state should
enter the Union; ana in the case of ok
lahoma it WAS provided that the con-
Stitutional convention should by ire
Norable ordinances, express the consent
Of the state that Congress at any fu-
turc time might attach to it all or any
part of Indian territory.
Knox said political considerations
We're eliminated from discussion of the
pending bill, rs both parties in their
national conventions had declared for
the admission Of oklahoma, New Mezi-
60 ANA Arizona
Mcitea. Ark, gave notice that he
would offer ut tha proper time an
to admit oklahoma and
indian Territory as one state, and sub
init an argument in support of his
proposition to amalgamltc the two ter
ritoricS into a single state. If Oklaho-
ma, New Mexico and Arizona We're ad-
lnitted, he said, the inhabitants of the
territory, who We're almost as numer-
Gus as those of oklahoma, would be
left political orphans without local
government of any sort.
Roday, delegate, n. NJ, made an
earnest speech in favor Of the bill, de-
voting himself principally to New
MeXico'S claims to statehood He con-
Cluded by expressing the hope that no
mar on tn" floor would be small
enough to oppose ON political grounds Il
bill to permit 1,000,00O Americans to en-
Joy the full privileges of citizenship.
At $40 +. NJ, the House adjourned.
