THE PRESIDENTS POSITION.

The message of President Roose- welt, read in Congress Tuesday, contains this significant para graph:
 ] recommend that Indian Territory and Oklahoma be admitted as one State and that New Mexico and Ari- z0na be admitted as one State. There is no obligation upon us to treat Ter ritorial subdivisions, which are matters 0t convenience only, as binding us On the question of admission to Statehood Nothing has taken up more time in the Congress during the past few years than the question as to the Statehood to be granted to the four Territories above mentioned, and after careful c0nsidera- tlon ot all arguments that have been developed in the discussions of the question l recommend that they be immediately admitted as two States. There is no justification for further delay; and the advis- ability of making the four Territories into two States has been clearly es- tabished
 All along has TIE OASIS insisted that President Roosevelt is for joint-statehood. After Governor Brodie had endeavored to bam- boozle the republican territorial convention, at Tucson. in April, 1904, THE OASIS called down the gentleman for the palpable trick there perpetrated. Time has shown now that this journal was right then.

A STRONG MAN.

There has been presented re- gently circumstance in the history of the United States that Is peculiar in itself, and very unique: gentlemen Ga statesman) elected to represent his state in the United States senate, hesitating whether to accept the more exalted position, or remain in the executive chair of his state, to which he had been thrice elected Cover nor k. NJ. LaFollette of Wisconsin, is the executive who has stood in this peculiar and remarkable off, cial position.
 The situation iA Wisconsin has been peculiar. The state had been long under domination of the rail- roads and their allied rings. The people of Wisconsin had put into the hands of their railway com mission the power to regulate rail- ways, to prevent extortion by them, and to prohibit their grant, ing secret rebates to favored ship pers. That power permitted the railway commission access to all the books and papers of corpora tions, by which there could be laid bare any and all secret transac- tions between the railways and favored shippers, which are recog- nized universally as detrimental and against public policy LaFol- lette had attracted the attention of the people of his district, and they elected him to Congress several terms, on account of his very in- dependence of railway influence, and there he had made good record, showing ability, independ- ence and fearlessness. In opposi- tion to the maehinations of the railway ring, managed and manip- ulated by Senators Quarles and Spooner, he was nominated for governor four years ago, and al- though secretly knifed by both the United States senators (of his own party) he was elected. Once in office he found means to make the railway commission do it's duty. For the first time in the history of the state the books and papers of the great transportation corpora tions were subject to official super vision and scrutiny, and some of the evils under which the people of Wisconsin were suffering were laid bare, and remedies applied. Immediately there arose a great howl from the vested interestsn the executive was assailing. He was branded as an anarchist socialist" together with many vile epithets, and all the power of the courts was invoked to check operation of the plans he had pre- pared and was carrying out; but without avail. Gradually LaFol- iette entrenched himself in power, and was bringing slowly but surely the railways to their duties and responsibilities.
