MEASURE.

Wednesday the subcommittee of
the Committee on Territories Of the
house of representatives practically
finished the omnibus statehood bill.
The first eighteen sections of the bill
is an enabling act for the admission
to the union Of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory under the name of Oklaho-
ma. The remaining sections. about
equal in number, is an enabling act
for the admission of New Mexico and
Arizona to the Union as "a state. an
der the name of Arizona. The bill,
has a common title and a common
enacting clause.
1t is not known what the Democrat
ic members of the subcommittee
and the whole committee will do.
They may. or may not, file a minori-
ty report.
Oklahoma gets two United States
courts. two marshals and clerks: SO
does Arizona. Arizona also gets %
000, 900 acres of land for its common,
schools and institutions, but the
question as to whether or not it will
get any cash is not yet settled. The
subcommittee has left $4,000, 900 in
the print of the bill. The committee
agrees that Delegate Rodey may
make his fight before the caucus and
before the senate for three represen-
tatives and for such cash as he can
get, the committee not desiring to
give the new state but two represen-
t~atives, although they are divided
it.
Oklahoma will become a state in
1906; Arizona can become a state
within about a year.
There is a general sentiment pre-
vailing that the bill will pass, and
a general sentiment that the senate
will deal a great deal more literally |
with the New Mexico-Arizona end of
the bill than the house is inclined
to do.

CAPTAIN REED A v
Left Saturday to Report for Duty ir
Manila.

-L# #H N=
Captain George Reed left Saturday
afternoon for San Francisco and will
sail from that city for Manila where
he will report for duty in the United
States army. The cadet band, the
officers and cadets of the New Mexi-
co Military Institute were at the de-
pot. The band played several popu-
lar airs before the train arrived and
the young Captain modestly retired
into the ticket Office. The officers
and cadets filed by and shook hands
and said farewell. Just before the
train departed the band was playing
and Captain Reed was embraced in
the arms of his weeping mother and
the sister and brother stood silently
by. The scene was very touching.
Captain Reed is of magnificent phys
ique and is just twenty-one years of
age. He has been honored with the
appointment of third lieutenant in
the United States army and he will
report at Manila as soon as possible.
He is well known here and his many
friends wish him unbounded success
in his far distant future home. Cap
tain Reed is a young man of exem-
plary habits and he will doubtless
attain a brilliant future in the army.
He stood on the rear platform of the
moving train and raised his hat and
bowed to the admiring crowd until
the rain was out of sight.

For Bows Only.

Sonny, spare the robbins and the
bluejays. The late spring has been
hard enough on them, anyhow.
Yes, they are saucy fellows, all
right, but as you well know, that's only
a bluff. They are clipper because
they know what they are here for, and
they are Independent because they are
good Americans.
Did you ever notice how they go af-
ter the worms and grubs that infest
leaves and vines and trees? To be
sure they will sometimes help them
selves to fruit if they can't find worms
but they really prefer worms as a
steady diet. What if they do occa-
sionally nip few berries or cherries
Better than you they have earned the
the right to help themselves by help
ing to save the crop. Ever think OF
that?

says the remedy is Dodd's Kidney

about seven months ago.
Il am glad to be allowed to testify
to what good things Dodd's Kidney

cured me completely.

Kidney Pills to all who suffer with

Mr.. Peterson's case Is only one Of

Misstatinq History.

Congressman Warner said 10 the
members of the Hamilton club last
Saturday: THE first purpose of Lin.
coin and those who elected him was
to abolish African slave pauper labor
That was a misstatement calculated
to mislead members of the club who
are not familiar with the political his.
tory of 1860. Col. Warner, who was
not old enough to vote in that year,
but who was old enough and patriotic
enough to volunteer in 1861 and to
fight through the war, may have en-.
listed to root out slavery as well as to
save the union, but the abolition of
slave labor was not the avowed pur.
pose of the Republican party in 1860,
If it had been Mr.. Lincoln would not
have been elected. Nor did any con.
siderable number of those who voted
for him have in mind the freeing OF
the slaves as the result of his election.
The great purpose of the Republican
party was to prevent the extension of
slavery to the territories. 1t said in
it's platform that their normal condi,
ton was that Of freedom, and 1t de-
MED the authority Of congress or of
territorial legislature to give legal ex'
istence to slavery in any territory.

the rights of the states, and especially
