BOTH SEXES ARE MEMBERS

one Of New Jerseys churches has
undertaken 70 fight The devil With
some Of his own weapons, says the
New York Tribune. 4 few days ago a
church in Jersey City opened a ..paIace
Of pleasure SO the public might OBJ
tain recreation there instead of at sa-
looms and dance halls. There people
may dance, play cards, billiards and
pool and take part In as well as Wit
ness theatrical performances. There
the boys may box and wrestle and the
men may smoke.
The Peoples palace, as 1t is known
from the inscription over its entrance,
was created by the Rev DR.. John l..
Seudder, pastor of the First Congrega-
tional church Of Jersey City, and Jo-
seph Milbank, citizen Of New York.
Mr., Scudder furnished the IDEAS, Mr..
Milbank the money. AS Mr.. Scudder
said at the time the cornerstone OF the
building was laid 1.-THE Peoples pal
ace will sanetify all legitimate amuse-
ments and win not let the devil have a
monopoly Of them. 1t win keep boys
off the streets, young men out of sa-
looms and young women out Of dance
halls
Both Mr. Seudder and Mr.. Milbank
believe in practical Christianity and
the way they were brought together
illustrates what practical Christian
ity'' Isl About ten years ago the pastor
OF the First Congregational church Of
Jersey City induced its members to
build tenpin Alleys IN its basement. so
that the boys Of the neighborhood
might have their fun there instead
Of at beer halls. The tenpins made
great rumpus among some other clergy
men, and they also attracted the atten-
ton Of Mr. Nfilbank. The clergymen
openly criticised such an amusement in
a church and said 1t would send more
boys to the beer halls. AIR Milbank
watched and waited He said nothing.
The tenpins stayed. and the congre-
cation, and especially the Sunday
school, increased until the First Con
gregational became the largest church
Of that denomination in Jersey City.
Furthermore. one innovation led to
another. One day Mr.. Seudder discoy-
cred that some Of tile boys In their de-
sire to learn to swim went down to the
water front, where they were COM
PEELED to mingle with the low charac-
tiers always to be found there. He i'm
mediately decided that the church
should have q swimming tank Of its
own and succeeded IN having one built
Mr. Milbank heard Of the tank, and on
meeting the pastor, he said:
"Well, / understand that you have
added swimming pool to your
church,
Exactly. Cleanliness is next to god
liness,' the clergyman replied.
"Well, well, and what win you do
nexty'
"We would build a pleasure palace
for our people If we could We would
begin tomorrow If we had the money.
At any rate you ought to believe in
church swimming pool
flows that9 asked Mr. Milbank
Because you are Baptist" said DR.
Scudder.
The two men have been close friends
ever since, and they have worked to-
gether in planning and building
house Of amusement as if they were
Of one and the same creed Ii is for
this reason perhaps that the Peoples
palace is wholly undenominational

greater than that between Cairo, H. linois, and the northernmost point in Wisconsin, which is the longest distance across the old Northwest territory. Either distance can be covered now in forty eight hours. In 1TS7 to have traversed either stretch of country would have re- quired a month of continuous travel. Under such conditions small states were more convenient of admin. istration as a matter of course. Official business could not be transacted over areas so great with any facility. Now if an official visit be necessary or a messenger must be sent he covers in twenty four hours distance which once required two weeks or more. But that distance may be annihilated by the use of the magnetic tele- graph; and there is yet another method given by modern inven- ton. With use of the long dis tance telephone the governor of California can converse with a county official at San Diego or Shasta the first place eight hun dred miles distant and the other four hundred, and without leav- ing bis seat in the executive cham Der can arrange any matter of official import as readily and effec- lively as though he had gone to the remote end Of the state or sum- moned the other official to the capital. Under the conditions des- cribed the size of states cuts no figure in the administration of a commonwealth, and the affairs of the greatest state are conducted with the same facility and des- patch as are those of the smallest. Sc upon examination 1t IS seen that the labored objections of the eminent gentleman all vanish into thin air.
 There is not q single argument that has been advanced by Colonel Wilson, or any other opponent oi jointure, that cannot be riddled as completely as the points scrutin- ized hereinbefore. TIE OASIS edi- tor would like nothing better than | meeting Colonel Wilson on the rostrum in joint discussion of the question of annexation of New Mexico to secure statehood. IL could be arranged readily to hold several such debates-say at Pres

PUBLIC DISCUSSION PROPOSED.

The Douglas and Bisbee news
 papers International American
 and Review have recently pre-
 sented two very strong and we'll
 constructed arguments against the
 proposed annexation of New Mex
 leo to Arizona in order to create a great state in the American Union, written by Colonel J. F. Will son. former delegate to congress. While very able and we'll worth reading, if taken in the light of history and actual facts the articles written by the gentleman will not stand before the rigid scrutiny and
 exacting criticism to which state papers (and they arise to the
 dignity of state papers) should be
 subject when dealing with topics
 of importance so momentous-the very form and scope of government of a commonwealth which would
 be free: condition which 1t may
 be said truthfully neither Arizona nor New Mexico now enjoys, but a condition all true patriots in both territories should strive to attain.
 One of the principal points made by the honorable gentleman Is a protest against the great injustice done the people of Arizona by re- fusing them statehood. But as New York with eight millions of people and Pennsylvania with seven millions protest with equal vehemence against giving New Mexico and Arizona with less than half million population four votes in the United States senate to offset their own four votes in that same body, in numerical force their protest far outnumbers the protest of Arizona az voiced by the able and eloquent gentleman; and as united they have about seventy votes in the house of representa- tives, while Arizona and New Mexico have none, they have a power for making their protest far more effective, which they have done surely, and will continue so to do, And in the senate they have four votes to reinforce their protest. Then there are the other great states Of Massachusetts, Illin- ois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Wis consin, Iowa. and many more uniting with New York and Penn sylyania in swelling the protest on that side of the question, drowning completely the feeble protest of the honorable gentleman. And their protest k all the stronger in that they feel intensely they have here tofore done themselves great in justice in admission of the recently created states, with small popula- ton and vastly disproportionate power in the councils of the na- tion It is very true. as Colonel Wilson asserts, that 1t is an in- justice to Arizona and New Mexico now to refuse them separate ad- mission. after having so recently admitted Wyoming and Idaho
 But the people of the East feel

Why should not Arizona be made State, jointly or singly? Any old way would give the people q charce to elect their own Governor, who would be the Governor and not the wolloper of those he has 1t in for. "-Bisbee Miner.

NI ilNHf eihttt HfHi tHtN VIII ffYt repeat Che mistake. They have the power. in the Hamilton bill they have presented all they will grant. and TIE OASIS believes it would be wisdom in the people of Arizona and New Mexico Go accept what they can get and cease their importantly for that which is be- yond their reach.
 The gentleman cites the act of 17S7 creating the Northwest Terri tory, which provided that the area should be carved into five states, and that whenever a given area should reach a population of 60,C00 it should be admitted as a state. In accordance with the act of 17S7 the great states of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin were carved out from that portion of the public domain And the gentleman asserts that in that act the fathers of the republic created precedent that to overturn now as provided in the Hamilton bill will be revolutionary. But Col onel Wilson has been always of that school of political faith which has ever tried to bind the American people by the dicta of the fathers. Through four long years of bloody war Colonel Wilson made q glor- ious personal record defending the the assertion that the policy of the federal government was an aban- donment of the principles and policies of "the fathers" and revolu- tionary in the extreme. But the alleged revolutionary policy pre- vailed; as it will prevail in this in- stance. The profound admiration for the doctrines and tenets of 'the fathers" so frequently ap- pealed to by gentlemen of Colonel Wilson's cast of mind may be all right in China, but it is out of place in the modern, progressive United States.
 In citing the precedent set by "the fathers" in providing for division of the North West terri tory into states Colonel Wilson ayers that 1t was the manifest policy of the fathers" that states should be small, compact, with all parts of each within easy com munication That may have been their policy, but 1t was abandoned in 1S45 with admission of Texas. It is true the act of admission pro- vided that Texas might be after ward divided into several states, but what Texan would now listen to proposition for division of his great and glorious state2 And the declared policy of "the fathers" was again violated by the admis- sion of California in 1850. That is a state one-half as great in area as was the entire Northwest territory, and the distance from San Diego to the capital at Sacramento is considerably greater than is the distance between Santa Re and the most remote point in Arizona. Yet no one protested against admission of California as violative of the policy of the fathers
 Now were it the policy of "the fathers" that for sake of admins trative facility states should be small, compact and easily com municable among it's various local- ities, still the progress of modern invention has rendered communi-
