upon their fellows who are applicants

QUAY WON'T DESERT.
Pennsylvania n Cabal with DEM
ocrats for Statehood.
The President Has Suggested . Compro-
muse W hich " ould Admit Oklahoma,
But There Is No ProbabiIiIy
That Il ~ IN Pass

Washington, Jan. 19.-President
Roosevelt in his conversations with
republican senator's in the last two
days has stated that the republican
party could not afford to ignore its
platform pledges to the people of the
territories. The president had stated
previously that he was opposed to the
admission of New Mexico and Arizona
as separate states. He did not be-
ieve that the territories, separately,
had sufficient wealth or population
for separate states and their admis-
sion would be burden on the peo-
pie and an injustice to other states.
If the two territories were united in
answered and the president thinks it
should be done. It is further known
that the president favors the admis-
sion of Oklahoma as provided for in
the Flynn bill.
AS soon as the presidents wishes
in the matter became rumored about
the hotels the gossips had a compro-
mise statehood bill framed and
passed. The difficulties in the way of
reaching a compromise, however, ap-
pear almost insuperable. Senator
Quay could not with decency desert
the democrats who have followed
him and given him two-thirds of the
strength of his combination. 1t was
| emphatically announced Saturday
night from an authoritative source
that Senator Quay would agree to no
compromise legislation not accepta-
bic to Senator Bate, Senator Bailey
and other democrats who had backed
him in his fight.
