Mr. sherman, in charge of the con-
ference report defended it and urged
the house not to vote down a report
covering 1875 items on account of OBJ
lection 20 a single one. The provision
complained Of he said. involved only
2,640 acres out of 100000 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-
IONA, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Mr..
Knox Of Massachusetts, chairman of
the committee on territories, made an
extended speech in support Of the bill.
To Treat All Alike.
The committee. he said. were of Opin-
ion that il one of the territories
was entitled to admission to statehood
all Of them were. The bin was similar
10 former enabling acts, except that as
TO New Mexico the constitutional con-
ventiOn was empowered to designate
the name By which the new state
should enter the Union, and in the case
of Oklahoma IL was provided that the
constitutional convention should, by ir
revocable ordinance, express the con-
sent Of the state that congress, at any
future time might attach 10 it all or
part Of Indian Territory.
Mr.. Knox said political considerations
were eliminated from discussion in the
pending bin. both parties in their ma
uonaI conventions having declared fof
the admission of Oklahoma, New Mex
leo and Arizona.
Mr.. McRae Of Arkansas gave notice
that he would offer at the proper time
an amendment to admit oklahoma and
Indian Territory as one state and sub
mitted an argument in support Of his
proposition to amalgamate the two ter
ritories into a single state. If Okla
hOma, New Mexico and Arizona were
admitted. he said. the inhabitants of
the territory, who were almost as nU-
merOUs as those Of Oklahoma, would be
left political orphans, without local
government Of any sort.
Mr. ROdey delegate from New Mex
leo, made an earnest speech in favor Of
the bill devoting himself principal
ly 20 New MeXico's claims to statehood
He concluded by expressing the hope
that no man on the floor would be
small enough to oppose, on political
grounds, a bill to permit !, 900, 900 Amer
leans 20 enjoy the full privileges Of cit
iZenship.
The senate amendments TO the sun
dry civil appropriation bill were non
concurred in and the bin was sent TO
conference. Messrs. Cannon, Hemen-
way and McRae were appointed con-
ferees.
