AGAINST STATEHOOD BILL.
Republicans In Senate Oppose Admission
OF New MEXICO aud Arizona.


OF New Mexico and Arizona.
The statehood bill, by which II Is
proposed to admit Oklahoma, New
Mexico and Arizona during the coming
session, is to be contested by the Re
publican leaders In the senate. Senator
BeverIdge, chairman Of the committee
on territories, left Washington Friday
10 meet subcommittee Of that com
mittee in Chicago on Monday, to visit
the three territories and take testi-
mony on all questions involved In tho
claim for admission.
From iutimations dropped by Sena-
tor Beveridge, II appears that there is
still as strong opposition to the admis-
sion OF all three territories as ever.
The ground Of objection Ia that New
Mexico and Arizona are largely ldeNi-
can In population, and that they have
not sufficient population to entitle
them to become states with 40 equal
representation In the senate with the
older commonwealth OF the Union.
An effort will be- made to have okla
homa admitted and leave the other
two out.

INDEPENDENT MEAT COMPANY.
Some Butchers in Philadelphia to Supply
Their Own Trade.

Some Butchers in Philadelphia to Supply
Their Own Trade.
A movement has been started in
Philadelphia looking toward the forlna-
tion of company to raise and sell
meat independent of the Big -Four,
which now practically controls the,
meat market of the country. The
Philadelphia company is to be capital
lied at $50, COO and will sell the shares
at 81 apiece. 1t is proposed to take re-
tail butchers into the company and
make it cooperative.
The matter has attracted great deal
of attention among the trade in this
city, although none here are interested,
so far as is known. One butcher in
speaking on the subject, said il the
plan should succeed it would benefit
Wilmington as we'll as Philadelphia,
as it is the object of the new company
to sell its product wherever there is a
market and if it could afford to under
sell the Big -Four it would get the
bulk of the business in this vicinity.
There have been few changes in
meat prices recently. Some kinds OF
beef have fallen half cent a pound,
wholesale, but there is very little ad-
vantage in this except to tho large
handlers, as meat is more difficult to
| take care of now than in cooler weather
and in order to have it exposed there
must be some loss, which makes w
for the slight reduction in cost. Salt
meat prices are about as high as ever,
and one butcher remarked today that
if a retail dealer wants to come out
even in selling ham he must charge
from 20 to % cents pound for gooc

GORRUPTION'S DEATH STRUGGLE.

Rehoboth, Aug. 16 Addressing the
Epworth League Assembly yesterday
on "Christian Citizenship, Its Duties
and Obligations, /" Chief Justice
Charles B. Lore said:
'.Today our own little State is held
in the grip of the politicians, and is
without representation in the United
States Senate. l will not unveil Della
wares political history. Some of you
may know what it is. This, however,
1 will say-that the average of political
morality OF the people of Delaware to-
day is as high, if not higher, than ever
before in her history. The Senatorial
vacancy results from the indignant
protest of her people against corrupt
machine politics and selfish personal
ambition. Politicians were never SO we'll
organized, the machine was never so
we'll managed for personal ends as now,
but corruption is in its death struggle,in
this State The people will win. The
little gods that strut upon the stage OF
politics today will be forgotten tomor-
row."

THE OYSTER SEASON.

Millville, Nd. Aug. 1S.-They oyster catch
ing season begins September lst, and the
indications are that the coming fall and
winter will be the most prosperous in many
years for the oyster planters and shippers.
Much activity is now shown along the
wharves at Biyalve and Maurice River, and
the shippers are getting everything in readi-
ness for the first day of September.
In the spring and early summer thousands
OF plants were distributed over the hundreds
of leased acres in the Maurice River. Recent
investigation made upon these beds indi-
Gates phenomenal growth. Almost all Of the
plants have lived and thrlyed, and the catch
of spat has been remarkable. Oysters re-
Gently taken in preliminary hauls show
splendid growth, and oysters gathered from
the same beds 10 days later show still further
development.
There was some fear recently that drum
fish would disturb the oysters, as they did
about Tuckerton during early July. Indeed,
there was some evidence of the ravages of
the fish in some parts of Maurice River
Cove, but fortunately there YVES no extended
damage.
With the first of September many of the
more than 400 boats licensed by the State
Commission will be in active service, and
thousands of bushels of oysters will be
shipped from Bivalye and Maurice River.
The wharves of the latter will be especially
busy, for most of the oysters are now going
that way.
Another important matter in this great
oyster industry is the matter of protection.
The State commission, with Its auperintend-
ent, Capt. A. 4. Bacon, has devised com
plete system, and the lessees of the beds will
be well looked after. 1t may be that the
commission may own its own steamer by
that time; but it is quite certain that there
will be steamer, either owned or chartered,
| which can be used by the watch officers.
| This steamer will be fully equipped with an
electric searchlight, that will be serious
obstacle to the boats that pass in the night.
