Washington, Feb. 28.-The senate
yesterday agreed to vote on the state
hood bill before adjournment on Fri
day, March 9. The proposition to take
the vote at that time was made by

difficulty in reaching an understand

voted to the discussion Of the bill pro-
viding for the settling of the ahairs

lands in Indian Territory.

posed amendment to the Indian bill
prohibiting railway companies and
their stockholders from acquiring the

when the question was once before
the senate it held it's place persistent
ly until almost the close of the days
session. Notwithstanding Mr.. La Fol-
lette has sat in the senate less than
two months he led the debate and oc-
supied more time than any other SEN

constitutional objections to the pro-
vision.

amendment, together with all the In
dian committees amendments to that
section, were laid on the table. The
Indian bill has passed both the house
and the senate, but as the senate has
