OKLAHOMA OR NOTHING.
Senate Leaders Firmly Insist on
One Ne5o State.
[FRoM THE TRIBUNE BuREAU.l


Washington. Feb. 20-"OkIahoma or nothingv'
is the verdict Of the Senate leaders, and there is
a possibility that nothing may be gained as a
result Of the long Statehood fight of this ses-
sion. To accomplish the admission of Oklahoma
including, of course, Indian Territory the House
will have to recede from it's position Of insist
ence on the Statehood bil which passed that
body and Democratic Senators must refrain from
fhbustering.
The Republican members of the Senate have
reached what amounts to an agreement on the
single State basis and, irrespective of the per-
sonnet OF the conference committee, no other end
can be attained To the Republican leaders
the admission of Oklahoma would be peculiarly
agreeable as it would, in their estimation dis
pose of the question of Statehood for Arizona
and New-Mexico indefinitely Senator Foraker
and those who fought under his banner believe
that this would be the case but they do not feel
justified in longer denying Statehood to Okla
them cannot be reached with regard to the other
Territories In the opinion of many Senators
the fate OF the Statehood bill rests with the
Speaker of the House. If he is willing to yield
on Arizona and New-Mexico, Oklahoma will be-
come a State. There is, however a possibility
that certain Democratic Senators may persist in
discussing the personnel of the conference COM
mittee so long as to defeat the entire bill, as a
little hlibulstering certain loss of any
measure at this late hour in the session.
