STATEHOOD REPORT ADOPTED BY SENATE Money Speaks indignantly
 Against Measure
  DUBOIS SOUNDS WARNING Thinks Antl-PoIyeamy Plank Should Be Placed In Arizona Provision.
 Morgan Also Has Some
 thing to Say.
DUBOIS SOUNDS WARNING

Washington, June 13.-Senator Beveridge called upon the conference report on the statehood bill in the Senate today and after almost three hours discussion the Senate adopted the report without divi- sion. When the discussion begun Senator Bailey indicated dispeasure over the To- cation of the capital of the proposed new state of Oklahoma at Guthrie until 1913, but said that feeling that Oklahoma and Indian Territory had been kept out of statehood too long, he would make no eff fort to link the fate or those two terri tories with that of Arizona and New Mex leo as inexcusable, and expressed the hope that the separate vote allowed to the two last mentioned would settle for all time the question of their consideration as one state.
 Senator Money objected to the union of Oklahoma and Indian Territory. He ex- pressed special regret that democratic senators are united with republicans in bringing about the result. He also de- clared that If the two territories were in the north not man on the republican side would vote to unite them.'
 He declared the motive on the part of tn people of the east to be to secure vas sals.
 He expected, he said, to cast the only vote in opposition to the adoption of the report, but he would never sanction the outrage"

crlticlses Compromise.

Senator Morgan criticised the compro- mise provision on the ground that 1t leaves to the president the right to say whether New Mexico and Arizona shall decide to enter the union. saying that this is a determination of power that congress has no right to make. He pre- dicted that the vote of the two terri tories would be for statehood, because they would not be able to resist ''the bribe of $5000,000 given by the bill to the proposed state of Arizona" He advanced the proposition that congress can admit new states without the cooperation of the president.
 Senator McCumber. who has from the first objected to joint statehood for Ok lahoma and Indian Territory. indicated his intention not to surrender" because he believed that each territory possesses all the qualities necessary to make a good state He aid not agree that the consoli- dation of the territories had been engi- neered by the republican party. but he believed with MT. Money, that 1t had been influenced by sectionalism, the prejudice on the part of older states of giving more to new states.
 Senator Dubois found fault with the report, because of the omission of the anti-polygamous amendment as applied to Arizona. He declared that there are many polygamists living in that territory. and said Arizona once>admitted to state- hood. the Mormon hierarchy would enter politics and have control. He then said:
 '1 know what it means to me 1t means the end of my political career. I have given no quarter and have asked none. enjoy the life and duties here and would have had continuous service in the Senate but for this conflict. l would not have been defeated in 1906 but for this hierarchy. and know that no man can n n hn al fod tA lao Ca,x f, fv<, vk,tx Idaho or Wyoming who antagonizes this hierarchy. 1 warn the Senate that it is playing with fire. I shall not vote for the report"
 The report was then at 6:20 D. m. adopt ed without division

Not Wild Indians.

"It may be- he said, that they are not wild Indians,' and was about to proceed when Senator Gallinger said they are wild enough after they are drunk"
 MT. Bailey followed with the remark that they are not the only race in being wild when drunk.
 The democratic member of the commit- tee. Senator Patterson, made a statement of his reasons for assenting to the report. Speaking of minority members, he likened them to the vermiform appendix, saying that their principal office is to create irri- tation and for all practical purposes might as well be cut out He said, how ever, that the minority members had been better satisfied that the majority members on the outcome in New Mexico and Ari- zona and added that the unity of Indian Territory and Oklahoma works no great hardship because their union is a mere bringing together of parts which former ly constituted one subdivision of the country From the very first the demo- cratic party had, he said, been favorable to the admission of Oklahoma and Indian Territory as two states If possible, but If not as two, then as one He predicted that joint statehood for Arizona and New Mexico would be overwhelmingly de- feated by the vote in both territories, and thought the effect would be to settle the question for all time.

LiQuor Provision.

He also spoke of the liquor provision as the subject of just indignation on the part of the people, saying that it is a result which leads some to scrutinize with great care the sins of others, while totally ob- livious of their own.''
 He pleaded for the right of the people
 of the new state to regulate their own affairs and declared that he would not give any one hundred thousand people of the west for 500,000 people of the east, be- cause one western man is worth five east ern men all the elements of self-respect,
 courage and manhood and could take
 better care of their morals than could the people of the effete east !"
 Some countries might require blue laws,
 he said, but not that section. In conclu-
 sion he denounced the bill as sectional and partisan in purpose.
 Senator Foraker replied in deprecaton of the tone of MT Moneys speech, saying 1t was the first time since he had entered
 the Senate that he had heard a speech based on sectional issues. He declared 1 that there Is no occasion for the turbulent
 condition of the senator's mind and point
 ed out that according to the latest indi-
 cations the republican party would have gained by the admission of two states in place of one, because so far as there has
 been election returns they have been favorable to the republican party. He
 said, however. that he had not heard a 1 political or sectional reason given for the | legislation.
 | Mr Foraker also expressed the opinion that MT. Bailey had made too much of
 the prohibition provision.

SNOW HILL. MD. APR1E-9s,
WHERE THE LOBBYISTS ARE WEI
COME.

A Republican Congress is "A rich field
for the corporations and trusts to get
in their work, and when bill is pend
ing that is intended to plumber the peo-
Pile their lobbyists gather around the
corridors of the Capitol like buzzards at
n feast.
When Mr.. Carlisle and Mr.. Crisp
were speakers of Democratic House.
the corrupt lobby was eliminated. But
how different now. Reciting the events
on the consideration of the Ship-subsidy
bill by the House Committee on Mer-
chant Marine and Fisheries. a New
York newspaper says: Lobbyists
over-run the committee room and their
leader occupies place at the head of
the table prompting Grovesnor. Little
field and Minor when any witness
argues against subsidy.
Comment on such a national disgrace
is unnecessary, but voters can draw
their own conclusions about who to vote
for next Fall, for it is hardly necessary
to say that all the Democratic members
of the committee are opposed to the bill
and every Democratic member of the
House is in line to vote against it. Why
President Roosevelt recommended this
corrupt legislation is a mystery but
that he encouraged the lobbyists and
grafters to corrupt his party is certain.

TARIFF FOR REVENUE.

There is no crop raised in the South
ern states that is protected by the tariff
from foreign competition, except little
sugar and rice There is tariff tax on
tobacco. bnt il does not protect the
grower. for like wheat and corn, the
price is fixed by the export demand,
there being a surplus raised of all those
products. which must be sold in the
markets of the world in competition
with other countries which also raise a
surplus. The price of these products
for home consumption is therefore large
ly fixed by what the surplus exported
will bring. Cotton. the money crop of
the South, is on the free list and there
is absolute free trade in that staple.
But everything the Southern planter
buys is protected by the tariff and is
taxed from % to l75 per cent. which
prevents most people from buying the
imported goods on account of this tariff
being added to the price the imported
goods cost abroad. The trusts and COM
bines that manufacture similar goods
here take advantage of this tariff taxa
ton and add TO the profits they charge
for their products nearly what the tar
iff tax would be on the imported articles
over and above what would be fair
profit. So the American consumer, be
he plaster, or whoever he is, is com
PEELED to pay the trust and corporations
pretty nearly the same tax that would
be paid on the imported goods. The
difference being that instead of the gov
eminent getting the tax the trusts and
corporations collect it in increased pro
fit.
As some of the border Southern
states elected Republicans to represent
them in Congress, the voters must have
been led to believe that the protective
tariff was an advantage TO them anc
that trust high prices were blessing
in disguise. But with wheat, corn, to-
bacco and cattle all protected by the
tariff and yet selling at low price,
while cotton entirely unprotected sell
ing at fairly good price, the Republic
an argument that the tariff protects the
planter and farmer is shown to be cam
paign talk and not borne out by actual
conditions The ideal condition for the
planter and farmer is to have the un-
obstructed right to sell in the dearest
market and buy in the cheapest market.
That can only be brought about by the
Democratic plan. of tariff for revenue
only. to produce enough money to run
the government. when honestly and
economically administered.
