EMINENT EDITOR DEAD.

NEW YORK May 21.-Edwin Law
renee Godkin, editor emeritus of the
Evening Post died in Brixham, South
Devonshire last night. The immediate
cause of his death was a hemorrhage
of the brain, which occurred on Sunday
last. Mr.. Godkin suffered a similar
stroke two years ago, but recovered
sufficiently to go to England in 1901.
He spent last winter at Torquay, and
moved to Brixham on the I'd of May
Mr.. Godkin was in his seventy-frst
year. He was twice married. His first
wife was Miss Foote of New Haven,
Conn, by whom he had one son and
one daughter, the latter dying in in
fancy. His second wife, Miss Kathe-
Tne Sands of New York, survives him.
His son, Lawrence GOdlkin, is a we'll
known member of the New York bar.
At the time of his retirement from
active duties on the New York Post in
the latter part of 1892 Godkin was the
dean of New York journalism and one
or the most respected and feared edi-
torial writer's in the country. At the
time of receiving the degree of d. c. l..
from Oxford, in 1897, leading English
writer declared him to be perhaps the
most distinguished of living journalists.
GOdkin was an Irishman, and after
graduating from Queens College, Bel
fast in 1851 went upon the staff of the
London News. 1t was as correspon-
dent of that paper that he came to the
United States. In 1865 he founded the
Nation in New York, and when that
paper was merged in the Post as the
weekly edition in 1882, he became editor
o. both His vigorous attacks on Tam
many possess now an interest that may
be called historical. Up to the death of
Charles a. Dana of the Sun, Godkin
was his steadfast political and journal
istic opponent, and no editorial battle
has ever waged with greater determin-
alton or skill than theirs.

rERRIToR1Es MUST WATT.

WASHINGTON, May 19-There is
little chance, from the present outlook,
Of any statehood bill passing the Sem
ate at this session. Inquiry among the
Senators both the Eastern and West
ern, and including members of the
Committee on Territories, in charge of
the statehood bills indicates that the
hopes of Arizona, Oklahoma and New
Mexico must be deferred. A Senator
close to the center of things who did
not want to be personally entangled in
the matter said: Nothing will be done
this season. Arizona and New Mexico
are not ready for statehood Whenever
they are spoken of for statehood the
history of Nevada and Utah is brought
up. l know the Senate will not admit
Arizona and New Mexico yet. Oklaho-
ma is perhaps entitled to statehood
and, if alone, she would stand a good
show But it would not be pleasant to
admit her and shut out the other two,
after the House has voted to admit all,
so all three will have to wait"

FAVOR SAILING CRAEr

GOTHENBURG, May 1S.-Wealthy
shippers and merchants have combin-
ed to construct a fleet of first-class sail
ing ships that will fly the Swedish flag.
This action is the result of a report
made by the Nautical union, after long
investigation, to the effect that the
prevailing idea that sails must yield
the sea to steam is based on misinfQr-
nation.
The union declares that sailing ships
on long, irregular routes are better in
vestments than steamers. 1t explains
that steamers have acquired more
favorable reputation than ships be-
cause the sailing vessels have been
carelessly constructed, while steamers
have been built in accordance with
the most modern ideas.

which British officers are educated and
trained is condemned in the most ems

ago the lodge was figuring on giving an
excursion to raise little money for a
diminishing treasury, but the temperance

where any intoxicants were on sale, and
the temperance element prevailed. A
place was selected out on the Baltimore
