FAVORABLE REPORT
ON STATEHOOD BILL
Committee Defends Population
of New Mexico
FEW FOREIGN RESIDENTS
Capital of Arizona Is to Be Santa Fe
Until 1o15-GuthrIe Is to
Be oklahoma's
Capital.

Washington, January 23.-Representa-
tive Hamilton of Michigan chairman OF
the House committee on territories today
submitted a favorable report on the Ham
llton joint statehood bill, which provides
for the admission of Oklahoma and In
dian Territory as the state of Oklahoma
and provides joint statehood for New
Mexico and Arizona under the name of
Arizona
The report reviews the bill in detail,
explaining that the capital of Arizona is
to be at Santa Fe until 1915, and the eapi-
tai of Oklahoma Is to be at Guthrie for
the same length of time, when the people
can choose and change their capital sites
with justice to all parts of the state. The
report says:
This committee considers the criticism
as ill formed which finds fault with New
Mexico because of its alleged foreign pop
ulation.
"Out of population of. 1880, New
Mexico has only 1888 foreign-born inhab-
itants, a smaller foreign born percentage
than most of the states in the union.
New Mexico was made a territory in
1850 and ever since that time the people
of that territory have been electing their
own legislatures, making their own laws,
conducting their own local government
and contributing revenue to the federal
treasury.
Were it not that the two-fifths of
its population which are native born but
of Spanish descent have been heretofore
enormously referred TO as foreign 1t
would be an aspersion upon patriotic
people even to refer to their loyalty. The
remaining three-hfths of its population
are of the same character as the people

 These and the fact that it would en- tail additional expense on the govern ment are assigned as reasons why tie court could not adjourn for the excu- sion.

Church Unity In Canada.

line movement to unite the Congrega-
uonal, Methodist and Presbyterian
churches Of Canada Is now regarded as
substantially complete. The movement
began in 1902, when the three churches
appointed committees to discover what
the differences were between the Or
CARNATIONS and whether union were
possible. The committees met several
times in Toronto and reported that the
differences We're insignificant and that
union was not only possible, but ad-
visable. The governing bodies of the
churches have met and approved the
action of the committees. The two diff
hcult1es which confronted the adVo-
Gates of union were doctrine and
church government. The first was solV-
ed by the adoption to large degree
of the Congregational practice of a
uniform belief In essentials, but con-
siderable freedom in nonessentials. The
church government will probably be
compromise between the rather auto
cratic system Of the Methodists and
the extreme democracy of the Congre-
gationalists along the lines of the Pres
byterian system, but with growing
democratic tendencies. The new organ
ization will be called the United
Church of Canada and will have a
membership of more than 1,75O,OOO.-

They Are Bulky, but Light, and May
BE Mailed Free.
Probably no one class of people are in
greater need of the consolation, inspira-
ton and entertainment to be found in
good books than are the blind. So
many of the recreations and enjoy
ments Of life are denied them that the
blessing Of being able to read and of
appreciated.
By wise provision OF the postal
regulations the embossed books used
by the blind may be sent through the
mails free of charge, and, taking ad-
vantage Of this provision, the Califor-
mia State library is lending embossed
books to any blind resident of Califor-
mia who will apply for them.
This work was begun in June, 1905,
and there are now 1872 borrowers scat
tered over the length and breadth Of
the state. ...-a~r --
These books for the blind are issued
in different types by the various pub
fishers, according to the systems they
advocate, the principal ones being the
New York point Moon, Boston line
letter and American Braille. In order
to be able to read all the books printed
for the blind. therefore, a person must
be familiar with all the different styles
Of type.
The books are curious looking vol
umes, being very bulky, but not of a
corresponding weight. All the systems
use an embossed character of some
sort to convey the meaning, and this
accounts for the thickness Of the vol
ume. Many of the patrons of the IL
brary can read two different types and
some of them even more.
Not only books, but also alphabets
and primers, are loaned to borrowers,
and since the work began eleven per-
sons who previously could not read at
all have learned either the Moon type.

One Of the eleven is a lady ninety
one years of age, who stated that it
was the happiest time Of her life when
she learned to read the books for the
blind. Surely IL so aged a person could
learn to read no one need despair Of
being able to acquire the same accom-
plishment.-Sunset Magazine.
