PLEA FOR STATEHOOD.

The senate committee on territories
has decided TO report adversely on the
applications of Arizona and New Mex
leo for admission to statehood and fav,
orably on that OF Oklahoma II is ex,
ceedingly unfortunate that the com.
mittee should have decided on this
course, says the San Francisco Chron.
icle.
In most cases the report of the com.
mittce would settle the point at issue.
But in this instance there Is every
likelihood Of strong fight being made
In favor Of the minority report recon-
mending the admission OF all three ter.
ritories.
An analysis OF the division OF the
committee indicates that its action has
been Influenced by politics. II is not a
case. however. where politics should
govern. Arizona and New Mexico are
seeking admission to statehood to IA.
ciIitate self government. The issue In.
vclved in their application is simply
this: Shall they be permitted by con
gress to enter the larger field OF use.
fulness az integral parts OF the ma.
ton which their population and natur-
u resources entitle them to occupy,
or will congress insist upon continuing
TO dwarf their ambitions and capabili-
ties by refusing TO remove their terri
tOrial limitations, The issue ought to
be met fairly and squarly on its own
merits, and entirely independent OF
any question in politics.
Few parts Of the country has devel-
0ped as Arizona has dore during the
past ten or fifteen years. The value OF
its vast resources began to be revealed
A. soon as It's Indian troubles were set
tied. Since then enterprising men and
m abundance Of capital has entered
the territory. II ranks high as a min.
eral producer. Its possibilities in other
directions are beginning TO be under
stood. Self government Is desired for
the purpose OF stimulating their devel.
opment, an 1t surely will do. As q
state. Arizona will doubtless become
. great Industrial and manufacturing

lation large and prosperous enough "a

poses. Few OF the states of the Union

 Colonel Hgidon when seen today said: "I have done everything on earth honor able that an officer or a gentleman could do to get the Governor to give me jus tice. have failed to secure it and can not believe but that there is some law which will protect a man who had done his full orders and carried out the wishes of superior officers l have employed Messrs Stallings and Gaston to ascer- tain if there was such law and will re- quire them to press 1t to the fullest ex- tent"
 He did not care to go into the case at length, saying hls lawyers would do all the talking. It is understood that the papers are almost finished and that the formal demand for reinstatement will be made in a few days. Then notice of the mandamus will he filed, as required by law.
 As to the suit to follow for damages, this is more speculative than certain. though there appears to be considerable feeling in the matter. There Is a belief

She Is C.1red-Enjoying the Best of Health After Years of Heart
 Disease. Dr. Miles Heart Cure
 Cured Her.

Five years ago my wife was constant sufferer from weak heart and fainting spells that would cause her heart Co hutter violently, leaving her m a very weak condition. She was extremely nervous, had little appetite, could not sleep well and was unable to do her household duties. She began the use of Dr. Miles New Heart Cure, and after the first bottle felt great relief. She has now used five bottles and I can say she is cured and enjoying the best of health. She goes out great deal, does all her own work and she thinks all the credit belongs to Dr. Miles Heart Cure, and we take pleasure in giving you this testimonial hoping 1t will be of ben eft 10 others. l will add that l used the Re storative Nervine this spring as a spring tonic and it made new man ot me.

If yOurt is weak, if 1t hutters, pal pilates, tires easily, you should lpmediatey begin the use of Dr. Miles Heart Cure. This great blood and heart tonic has been uni Eormly successful in the treatment ot heart disease.

LOWE MADE RECEIVER
MORE DEBENTURE COMPANY LITIGATION.
Already Receiver Has Been Named by United States Court-Federa- tion of Labor to Urge Anti
 Child Labor Bill.

Birmingham, Dec. 11.-(SpeciaD aD-Robert J. Lowe was this morning appointed re- ceiver of the Continental Security Re demption Company, the Southern De- benture Company, the National Debenture Loan Company, the Columbia Investment Company and the Birmingham Debenture Company. the appointment being made under a decree rendered by Chancellor John C. Carmichael in the case of Browse T. Bringier ct al vs. the Conti- mental Security Redemption Company ct al.
 The appointment of receiver for these compa rites by a State court Is made par ticularly interesting because of the fact that a receiver has already been appoint ed by the United States Court and Is now in charge, the receiver being 2. T.. Rudolph It would appear that there will be a fight upon the point of jurisdiction whether the United States Court shall continue In charge of the affairs of the defunct concerns.
 The bill under which MT. Lowe was this morning appointed receiver was filed in the Chancery Court and was peNding prior to the filing of the bill under which the receiver was appointed by the United States Court and prior jurisdiction Is claimed by the State court. A bond of t10,0o0 was required of MT. Lowe and this was made at once.
 Judge Jones of the United States Court will hear the contention as to the re- csiver probably in chambers at Mont gomery. The officers of the several con cerns are enjoined from interfering in any way with the receiver in taking charge of the property.
 As will be remembered all the com panies named above went broke" some time ago and much litigation. has been started.

iii and although able at times to attend to the duties of his ofice he steadily de- clined physically until a few weeks ago when he went to bed never to arise. He was well aware of his approaching end and faced death without a murmur. Re gently he had been visited by prominent Pythians from all over the State.
 When death came he was surrounded by members of his family and other rela- tives He leaves a widow and a son and two daughters. Three Of his sisters reside in the Birmingham district-Mrs. J. W. May at Woodlawn, Mrs. 2. z. Schwin at Avondale and Mrs. S. J. Dillon on the North Highlands.
 MT. Donahoo was for four years post master of Talladega, serving during Cleveland's first term. For long time he was assistant clerk of the Circuit Court here and held other positions of trust in this community from time to time. Tn Pythian affairs he was very prominent, having attained the office of Grand Chan cellor about seven years ago. About i've years ago he was elected Grand Keeper of Records and Seal. which ofice he held at the time of his death. He was one of the most popular Pythians in the State and as an officer of the order he was loyal efficient and painstaking. He was also prominent as an Odd Fellow and was a leading member of the Baptist Church here
 As man MT. Donahoo possessed q large heart, being charitable almost to a fault; always jovial and genial, straight forward and honest, he drew men to him His home life was exceedingly happy as he was kind, generous and affectionate as a father and husband.
 It is expected that the funeral tomor- row will be attended by all the higher of hcers of the Grand Lodge of Pythians who will bury the dead Grand Keeper of Records and Seal with Pythian ilonors.
 Mrs. Donahoo has received many tele- grams of sympathy from members of the Knights of Pythiss in various parts of the State

Dr. Steele also reported during the year calls from the First Church at Pittsburg, Pa, and the First Church at Fort Worth. Tex, which he had refused.
 The work in Montgomery has only been open a year, but in that time the pastor. Rev. pr. Walter M. Crawford. had gathered together 120 members. It was also reported that the mission committee had allowed $400O to build a chapel on this charge, preparatory to erection of a handsome church.
 The Ensley mission reported a gain in six months of 8 per cent. The pastor is Rev. Frank Wear, one of the best equip ped young men of the church.
