believes The Omnibus Biil Can Not BE
Defeated.


Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Fora
ker is con tident that the omnibus state
hood bill admitting Oklahoma, Arizona
and New Mexico will pass the senate.
In the absence of Senator Quay, who
left for Florida Immediately upon the
adjournment of congress, Senator For
alser has been looking after the inter-
ests of the statehood bill. In discuss
ing the possibility of it's passage he
said that there had been no break
in the statehood forces and that
in his judgment there would be none
of sufficient Importance to overcome
the majority of fifteen now claimed by
the statehood advocates. The active
support of Senator Foraker has ma
terially strengthened the statehood
bill. Mr.. Foraker, like Mr.. Quay, has
has been consistent supporter OF
President Roosevelt. While the presi-
dent protests that in legislation of this
this sort personal interests and friend
ship should not be taken into account,
the friends of the omnibus bill are
confident that he will not use his in
fuence against the passage of tho
measure to the same extent that he
would if SO many of his personal
friends were not advocating the bill.

PRACTICAL ADVICE.
Why some Young Brides ana nrise-
srooms Are Not Quite a. Happy
as They should BE.

| The first year Of married life is mn.
doubtedly one of the most critical
through which young people have to
pass. 1t should, of course. be the
happiest. But instead, there are al.
ways obstacles in the way of per.
feet married happiness, where two in
experienced young people are con-
cerned, which, if not met in n
proper manner. are liable TO bring
tears and troubled look to the face
OF the young housewife. and a care.
worn expression to that Of her hus-
band.
Engaged young people always as
sure each other that their married
life Is going TO be one long. sweet
honeymoon. They fail to understand
why it should be otherwise.
After the wedding little failines
and faults. little outbreaks of irri-
tation and bad temper. all of which
had been until now carefully con-
cealed, come to light on both sides.
These instantly dispel the dreams of
blissful harmony in which they had
fully expected TO live until the end
Of their days.
The young husband does not turn
out to be the paragon which his
bride always considered he was. while
she, on her part is not exactly SO
amiabie. enchanting and attentive as
he had supposed.
Many girls get married with the
idea that they are going to lead an
ideal existence. free from all care
and worry, although it would be un-
fair to say that girls troubles only
commence at married life. yet more
often than not she meets with DIFF
ficulties which she never imagined for
one moment would fall to her lot.
Every young bride and bridegroom
who wishes to be truly happy after
settling down in the new home should
endeavor to thoroughly understand
each others weak points. and look at
life in practical. as well as q TO-
mantle Chicago American.
