THE INSURGENTS POSITION
Senates Action Has Confirmed Their
View in Regard to Union Of Ari

THE INSURGENTS
POSITION

very ugly situation exists in the House
over the statehood bill The announced in
tentfon of the House leaders to call a eau
Gus for the purpose of securing a show
down of administration hands has vexed
that faction of the republicans who are OPP
posed to joint statehood for Arizona and
New Mexico, but who do not object to the
admission of Oklahoma and the Indian Ter
ritory. and there Is considerable grumbling
In consequence.
House to Make a Stand.
The House organization leaders are very
much in earnest. They contend that this
is an administration fight. forced upon the
House by the hostile attitude of the SEN
ate toward all administration measures.
and that It must be fought to a finish.
They point out that the Senate hamstrung
the philippines bill, mutiiated the statehood
bill and is going after the railroad rate bill
with butcher knife and a cleaver, and
they think 1t Is time that the administra-
tons friends In the House should make a
stand
The Insurgents Position
On the other hand. the republicans who
are opposed to joint statehood for New
Mexico and Arizona contend that they are
entirely within their rights in interposng
their Judgment against the administrat ions,
and say that the fact that the Senate con-
ours with them Is Endorsement OF their po-
sftfon. and that the House leaders should
not attempt TO cram this bill down their
threats.
They say that Il is absolutely certain the
Senate will not provide joint statehood for
New Mexico and Arizona and that IL wouli
be much better with that certainty before
them to take half loaf In preference 10
no bread and bring In Oklahoma and Indian
Territory. for whose admission all parties
and all factions are unanimous
VIII Not Go Into Caucus.
The insurgent republicans still Insist that
their absence will create a very grave sit
uaton In the republican party in the House
and be conducive to dscord which may re-
suit seriously before the session is over.
