Not Deemed Practicable.

Several weeks ago the Washington Con-
fectioners' Association requested the Com
missioners to extend the regulation requir-
ing the washing by the consumer of milk
cans so as to cover the cleansing of ice
cream cans by the consumer.
In reporting on the matter, DIR. William
c. Woodward he alth officer, states that the
enforcement of any such ordinance would
necessltate the detail by the department of
inspectors to accompany the wagons sent
out by confectioners. This is not deemed
practicable under present conditions DIR.
Woodward recommends adverse action on
the matter. and Commissioner mcfarland
has approved the recommendation.

STATEHOOD MAY COME
FOUR YEARS HENCE
Republicans Complete Bill Adding Two
Stars to the Flag.


WASHINGTON. d. c., March 26--
The states of Oklahoma and Arr
iona are created in a bill which has
been completed by the Republican
members of the subcommittee Of the
house committee on territories. The
Democratic members of this subcom
lnittee have been placed in possession
Of the bill, and after they have con-
sidered it for a few days a meeting of
the full subcommittee will be held. The
two states mentioned are composed of
Oklahoma and Indian territory as
Oklahoma and Arizona and New
Mexico as arizona" The admission
Of the latter two territories is not de-
layed by any restrictions Of law, but
may be effected as soon as conven-
ton can be called to form a state con-
stitlfien. The bill provides, however,
that Oklahoma and the Indian territory
shall not be admitted as state until
1906. By this time all the Indian lands
will have been allotted.
The state constitutions to be formed
under the bill must contain an abso-
lutte prohibition OF po1ygamy. Suffrage
cannot be restricted except for ig-
nerance, imbeciIity, age and sex. This
will not prohibit woman suffrage if the
constitutional be adopted shall so pro-
vide. Negro suffrage cannot be re-
stricted as such.

the thousands of callers, who will in
evitably make comparisons with other
houses.
But this is but one small side issue
of the Wallblom company, which aims
to be and has achieved the reputation
of being the most complete housefur-
nishers in the city. Not only in price
and in grade of goods does the con-
Germ seek to secure trade, but it goes
long distance further and offers the
most liberal terms to time payment
purchasers. After due elaboration the
company has decided that it will open
ly proclaim a policy that it has long
practiced as matter of business poll
cy and as a demonstration that all
business men are not without consid-
Grafton in substantial form for the af-
f1ieted widows and orphans.
From and after this date the con-
Germ guarantees, under most liberal
conditions, that unpaid amounts due on
furniture at the time of the death Of
the head of the family shall be RENTED
and a clear title given to the widow
or to the orphans. The plan by which
the company insures that the furniture
will not be taken from the wife Or chill
dren after the death of the husband
or father is simple in the extreme
SO simple and the conditions SO easily
complied with it is remarked that it
would seem impossible to carry out SO
liberal a policy. But having committed
the company to. the plan it is proposed
to carry it out to the letter, thus Civ
ing every tifne-payment purchaser a
valuable present.
The official announcement of the
company, which has attracted so much
attention, and which was responsible
for some part of the large gathering Of
Saturday evening, is:
I'm all purchases made from US, from
this date On and until further notice,
where the purchaser is a married man,
living with his wife or children and
supporting them, and payments have
been promptly and regularly made
upon the purchase for a period of six
months continuously from the date of
purchase, we will, upon satisfactory
proof of the death of such purchaser,
and the fact that he was supporting a
wife and children at the time Of death,
if he is not in default in any payments
up to said time, CANCEL THE BAL
ANCE OF, ANY INDEBTEDNESS ON
SUCH PURCHASE FROM THE
DATE OF SUCH DEATH"
This decided innovation in retail
merchandising has struck a popular
chord. 1t relieves the purchaser Of
the principal reason to fear that fur
niture bought on time payments viii
revert to the firm selling it, secures the
widows and orphans in the possession
of furniture that may not be more than
half paid for, and at the same time
demonstrates that the Wallblom COM
pany is managed by men who are
abreast of the times, enterprising and
considerable and fully deserving of the
success they have achieved in business.
TJ1dciTac hu Tho effect in f11a first in
stance, it would seem to be assured
that these new ideas are sure to in
crease to a great extent the future
business of the Wallblom Furniture
and Carpet company, bringing the con-
Germ to the attention of the people in
a light that is sure to result in benefit
to all concerned.

PROMISES NEW FIELD

Anglo French Colonial Treaty Calls
Attention TO Morocco.

PARIS, March 26.-The negotiations
for an Anglo French colonial treaty are
progressing satisfactorily, but the off,
Gals are unable to say just when it
will be ready to be signed. Foreign
Minister Delcasse said recently that
it might be signed in three or four days
and that it might not be signed, for
months. The drafts are now in Lon
don. Newfoundland continues to be
the only question considered definitely
settled both in form and substance.
The question of Morocco is proving
rather difficult of adjustment; but
some of the main features have been
settled One of the most important of
these; is Frances willingness to neil.
tralize the straits of Gibraltar. What
ever right France obtains will not in
vo1ve French fortiication of the straits.
Another feature practically settled is
the application Of the principle of the
open door. in Morocco. high Off
cial pointed out today that this open
door gave the Morocco question direct
interest to the United States. He said:
Morocco is quite equal as market
to Manchuria. Morocco is a rich agri-
cultural country, capable of support
ing forty millions of people instead of
the present six or eight millions. They
produce little and consume much. If
French authority is extended over
Morocco the governments policy GER
tainly will be equality Of trade con-
ditions for all countries alike"
