See Promise.

What the Rev. John Merritte
Driver, of Chicago, said upon being
interviewed regarding the wonder
full spread of prohibition.
Zone fact is that the churches to-
day are fraternal, eager TO promote
evangelistic work, internally har-
monious and full of brotherly love-
Another significant fact is the great
prohibition wave now on in the
South. with three. quarters of Texas
under prohibition. This question
is being agitated now as never be-
fore.
Another promising sign of the
tinles-the railroads of the country
have ordered stiict temperance for
their employees.
Whether from a business or re-
igious motive, the fact is intensely
significant for prohibition workers.
Just think of 1.-THE railroads EN-
ploy in round numbers one million
men in their service. These men
have families, most of them. Say u
family of four, for the average. This
mikes five million people reached by
prohibition under this new order.
The marked moral Improvement
in the Stage is another splendid sign
of Christianity S power in the world.
And the fact that the people real
y are hungering for religion as new
er before is the most prophetic per-
haps of all indications.
But the chief factors in this
world awakening is the work the Y.
NJ. c. A., Y. w. G. A., w. G. 7. U.
and the foreign missionary societies,
together with the vigorous crusade
of the young peoples socioties-a
new force in religious work. All
these things are great factors in
bringing about the revival The
students volunteer movement in
colleges, with John r. Mott at its
head, the work of the Crittenden
homes, Maud Ballington Booths
prison work, the Gideon band of
commercial travellers, which. by the
way, is accomplishing wonders
among the commercial men.

The Eastern View of Arizona.

Some idea of the prejudice which the friends of Arizona and New Mexico must overcome in order to obtain state hood is furnished by this comment of a New York paper concerning one of it's own cartoons:
 Our artist strkingly depicts the situation in the cartoon on this page. He shows Omnibus Bill" a wild west ern desperado of the dime novel type knocking at the gates of congress and demanding admission. The figure em- ployed by the artist is a fitting repre- sentatiOn of the element which pre- dominates in the population of the ter ritCries whose admission is objected to-
 The cartoon itself is so good-so thor- oughly representative of the eastern mans idea of Arizona-that we are tempted to reproduce it. And the fel- low who thinks he knows all about this region and its people is the man who is the least disposed to accept enlight- enment-as witness the distinguished members of the senate committee on territories who came out here a-visit- ing, and for personal safety stucK closely to their Pullman car.

Some Surprises.

An analysis of the test vote taken on Wednesday reveals several sur prises. Not a few western senators voted against Senator Quay. Dietrich and Willard of Nebraska, Kittredge of South Dakota, Warren of Wyoming, Kearns of Utah and Simon of Oregon, lined up with the opponents of state hood Bard was already placed. It is particularly surprising to find War ren, Kearns and Simon voting against western interests.
 Had Wyoming been treated as un- graciously as Senator Warren seems disposed to treat Arizona and New Mexico, Wyoming would still be q ter ritory, and the country would be de- prived oi MT. Warren's services as a senator. Upon what grounds Senator Warren will vote against the bill has not been stated. It was nat ural to suppose that the close busi- ness and personal relations subsist- and Senator Kearns would have led the latter to join Senator Clark in standing up for Arizona.
 Senator Clark's numerous friends in once to use his influence with Senator Kearns. and those who are acquainted with Senator Kearns should telegraph him that his support of the omnibus bill will be greatly appreciated.

cago Inter Ocean, from which we quote:
 "The statehood fight seems to have developed into one of those cases of which the senate annals are full, where there is a material difference between the number of members who woul ] actually vote for a certain policy on roll call and the number who desire a chance to do so. Enough senators to hold the balance of power in this con- test, in their present state of feeling hope to be relieved, for this session, from having to vote against the omni- bus bill.
 Nearly every eastern republican is receiving communications which make it highly embarrassing for him to vote against the bill. Former residents of a senator's own state have gone out into Arizona or New Mexico to settle and are now bringing pressure to bear on their relatives and neighbCrs at home. In many instances they have invested money in various enterprises for these people back in the east who are assured that their returns would be improved by statehood. Sena- tors from the most conservative of eastern states are receiving more sucn letters, urging them to vote for state hood. than from that part of the gen eral public which rather vaguely be- lieves that it would be a mistake tn push the center of political power Tn the senate so far to the southwest
 Besides. a sort of boycott is threat ened by the people of the territories against fhnca xH-ho flo fight. Senators who look forward to party honors of various sorts, to say nothing of the influence in the senate of the future. regard the entry of the territories of the southwest into tho union as bound to come to pass sooner or later. and so hesitate to go Into 2 sort of Arizona and New Mexico black list for the rest of their days. It is a good subject, they think, to avoid vot- ing on"
 No sensible person will threaten any senator with the future displeasure of our people. for. as we heretofore have pointed out, it is a question upon which honest men in the east may fair ly divide. But senators, like all other people, are always glad to favor theiI personal friends, and direct requests for assistance for Senator Quay In his great struggle cannot fail to have in huence. No time should be lost In making final rally of the friends or statehood. and the telegraph should be employed immediately. Not only sena- tors, but the president himself. should be appealed to for justice to these ter ritories.
 The critical day is near at hand Arizona will now be admitted to the union, or she will be made territorial outcast along with our island posses sions for long years to come. It is the gravest crisis in the history of the ter ritory. If we are clothed with state hood, capital by the millions will pour into the new state, and the population will quickly double
 Every loyal citizen should take steps to make his influence felt at Washing ton.
