Those at all familiar with the fight
for statehood for North Dakota-those
who made pilgrimages to " a~shington
year after year to combat The ridicu-
lous opposition-will have little SYM
pathy with any movement to impede
the admission of the remaining ter
ritories under what is known as the
omnibus bill. While ii is doubtless
true that the citizenship Of New Mex
leo is not of as high an order as that
of North Dakota when we were seek
ing admission it is only a question OF
relative fitness. There is 10 question
whatever as to the qualifications of
Oklahoma and it is doubtless true that
both Arizona and New Mexico will,
if given the independence and stand
ing of states, become prosperous and
wealthy commonwealth. When North
and South Dakota and Montana and
Washington were knocking at the door
of congress we were traduced and
slandered on all sides. but thanks to
a republican administrator justice
finally prevailed. We were told that
North Dakota was a barren waste and
to admit it as a state would be a crime
against a poor. misguided people in
capable of in%telligently exercising the
right of self-government Territorial
dependency is distasteful to the people
and outside of the mere game of pol
itics it is we'll that the remaining ter
ritories be given a place on the flag

VICTORY FOR IRRIGATION.
Nebraska Supreme Court Holds thu
State Law Constitutional.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 5.-Friends OF ir-
rigation claim a great victory in an
opinion rendered during the day by
the supreme court. which sustains the
constitutionality of the Nebraska irri-
CATION law and with it grants the right
OF eminent domain to irrigation COM
panies.
The case was that OF the Crawford
Irrigation company against Leroy Hall,
an appeal from the district court Of
Dawes county. The town of Crawford
and individuals of that place expended
$40. 900 in irrigation and other pro-
jects on the White river, but were
stopped from using the waters of the
stream by an injunction secured by
Hall, a miller. on the ground that
riparian rights were transgressed. The
supreme court reverses and remands
the case. While unfolding the claim
of riparian rights, the court says
Halls remedy is in a damage suit, but
that the irrigation company cannot be
J denied the use of water.
