STATEHOODBILL
Favorable Report Pre-
 sented To-day.
STATEOF OKLAHOMA
Will be the Name ot the New Star on the Map-Report of Committee Refers to Many
 Criticisms.

Washington, Jan 23-Representatiye Hamilton Michigan). Chairman Of the committee on territories to-day suD- mitted a favorable report on the Ham, ilton joint statehood bill, which pro- vides fo rthe admission of Oklahoma and Indian Territory as the state Of Oklahoma and provides joint state hood for New Mexico and Arizona un- der the name of Arizona. The report says:
 This committee considers the crit icism as i'll informed which finds fault with New Mexico because of it's alleged foreign population. Out of a population of 195.310 New Mexico has only 13,625 foreign born inhabitants, smaller foreign born per centage than most of the states ill the union.'
 The report concludes as follows:
 .'Inasmuch as congress intended by the organic act of the territory of Ok lahoma that all of the original Indian Territory, together with what is now Beaver county, should become one state and inasmuch as the present territory of Oklahoma has for some time been qualified for statehood but which has been deferred until the ln- dian Territory should be ready to be joined herewith in statehood; and
 ''Inasmuch as conditions in the In- dian Territory imperatively demand some better form of government than now exists there; and
 ''Inasmuch as Indian lands will be allotted in severalty before the time when a statehood can go into effect. this committee reports in favor of the joinder of Oklahoma and the Indian Territory in one state. not however. before March 1. 1907, such state to be known as the state of Oklahoma.
 ITO that end and to the end that the territories of Arizona and New Mexico may be joined In one state, to be known as the state of Arizona, this committee recommends that the bill do pass"

Attorney O'Neill Gets Stay of Exc euton for Capobianeo-
 Other Court News.

Attorney John O'Neill appeared be- fore Governor Roberts III the capitol today to obtain a reprieve for Ciriaco Capobianco, who is under sentence to be hanged on February q for the mur der of Angelo Solomfta on July 2S last. As Judge Robinson, who im- posed the sentence, did not hand down finding, the appeal could not be taken up by the supreme court at the term that closed last week. There fore the courts were closed for relief.
 Mir O'Neill cannot understand why Judge Robinson did not flle finding unless it was to delay the execution of the sentence in order that Capob1. anco may testify against Sabino Per riello. whom he blamed on the witness stand before sentence was passed Tor the entire terrible occurrence and is awaiting trial for murder. Perrie:lo, he said, was constantly urging him to kill the Solomita brothers. and on the afternoon of the murder gave him two drinks and the revolver with which the shooting was done.

An incident in connection with ths visit of W. H. Taft, secretary of war to Kansas City last November came out in a reception at Washington re gently, says the Kansas City Star. Sec retary Taft, who is a friend of Senator Warner, was chaffing the senator about his state and bis role as the ''mysteri ous stranger" in Washington. Senator Warner took it good naturedly, and when the laugh had subsided some. what he said:
 That is good. Mir Secretary. You are here at home and surrounded by your official family and have their pro- tection. but I can recall a time when you were not 90 chipper."
 Secretary Taft joined in the laugh that followed. and he told the story himself. You see" he said. T went out to Kansas City as the guest of the Commercial club. They assigned me to Senator Warner, and he was my escort during my stay there. They treated me quite handsomely out there. and Senator Warner and I rode in a car riage side by side through the streets of the city. I remarked repeatedly to the senator on the enthusiastic recep- ton I was receiving. and he laughingly said. Never mind. part of 1t is intended for me- meaning jokingly and good na- turedly to reduce my bump Of self es- teem.
 But unfortunately for me just at that moment a tall man on the curb close beside the carriage was heard to say. That's him-that's him sitting in the carriage beside that big fat man. You bet that Senator Warner had the laugh on me"

Great Confidence in This Sec.
ton as a Wealth Producer

Robert Jewett, young mining man
from Denver, who is interested In Winnie
mucca mountain with G. w. Carly of the
Bucch hotel, is booming this section for
all it is worth. Mr.. Jewett has great
confidence in the outcome of this district
He has a page advertisement in the Col
orado Springs Evening Telegram and that
paper says of this section:
Nevada has done more than other
States, all things considered, in the pro-
duction of the precious metals. And it
has not stopped it's history making in
this line.
Just at a time when Goldfield, Tono-
pah, Bullfrog and the surrounding camps
seemed to have capped the climax to rich
mineral discoveries in the State, Hum
boldt county came to the front, and the
name of Winnemucca has now become
so intimately linked with this new as
learned to conjure with new name.
The Winnemucca Mining and Smelling
Company, blieving it best to be pioneers
rather than trail. secured four carefully
selected claims and water right in the
heart Of the district, and is preparing for
an active campaign of development. The
lowest assays secured from this property
have run sl7.S4 a ton. while picked sam
pies run as high as $776 ton. The
aerage is $40 on the surface. and all the

THE company has been gathering to-

ANOTHER ATTEMPTS WILL BE
MADE TO FIND LIGHT

Warden John l.. Considine of the State
prison has decided to make further in
vestigation in the hill back of the prison
for further secrets OF prehistoric man.
There Is unquestionably much that has
not yet been brought to light and a lit
tie work may find the key to secrets
hidden from the eye of man for many
hundred years The Carson News says
of Warden Considine's intentions:
Warden Considine of the State prison
is about to enter upon a campaign Of
archaeological research. 1t is we'll
known fact that at the prison grounds
near this city there exists the best pre-
served relics of prehistoric America that
have ever been discovered.
Thus far the relics have consisted mere
in bygone ages, and fossilized bones OF
the same ancient era.
These bones and footprints were found
in the quarry at depth of from ten to
thirty feet from the surface and were
stone. cemented by lime in the form of
stone. cemented by ime in the form of
gypsum, from the hot springs.
This superficial stratum is of unques-
toned age, no one placing 1t less than
five figures ago and some investigators
even adding an additional cypher.
THE footprints were made in the mud
that surrounded as u beach a lake of an
tiquity such a lake as probably extended
to the mouth of Kings Canyon. and from
the Holstein ranch to the Indian school.
for the stratifications at the four points
named evidence an equal altitude during
the age of the footprints.
Evidently the mastodon who left his
footprints in the sand of time was the
chattle of the giant who also made his
mark in the world at that time. The
