MunseN Building.
Washington. ID. G., Feb. 6.

The cheerful state of uncertainty
which has existed for several day.
in regard to the fate of the bill adj
mitting New Mexico and Arizona tC
statehood. has been intensified within
the past twenty-four hours by the an
nouncement that there would be slight
opposition to the bill in the senate
and that its chances for passage are
more than good.
When the bill is introduced in the
house early next week it is expected
10 pass with little or no opposition.
Representative Hamilton OF Michi-
gan chairman of the committee on
territories is confident that the meas
ure will receive favorable treatment.
A canvass of the senate today de-
veloped the fact that the opposition
there woud be slight, as regards num-
hers With a few exceptions the sem
ate is in favor of the bill and Judging
from opinions expressed BY the elder
statesmen the statehood measure Will
be enacted before the adjournment.
Il am in favor of the immediate
admission Of these states" said Sena-
tor Warren of Wyoming, chairman OF
the committee on military affairs and
one Of the leaders of the majority
This remark seems to crystalize the
general concensus of opinion among
the senator's. Almost to man the
southern senators are especially anx-
ious that the two territories be adj
mitted.
While a number of the eastern SEN
ators favor the bin there are several
who are nr' ning to express an op-
ino 4t .-. ...4o. ~ has been rumored
that Mr. Beveridge would remain ar
IDENTIFY opposed to the admission of
the territories and inasmuch as he is
chairman OF the senate committee on
territories it has been thought that
his opposition would prove successful
in dealing the death blow to admission
at this session,
Although the Indiana senator niay
have considerable following il is not
known that there are sufficient
number Of senators in favor Of it to|
insure passage when reported SEN
ators Guggenhem, Burkett. Brown
and other wcsterners are prepared t.
champion any measure that will pro-
vide for immediate admission Sena-
tors Gallinger, Lodge, Burnham and
Others favor the bill, but have lean
ings toward joint statehood. senator
Hale. of Maine. the veteran leader OF
the majority. is silent on the subject
\ rumor was circulated yesterday tt
the effect that the personal objection
of certain senators to Delegates An
drcWs and smith, who are expected to
be- candidates for the senate from thu
new states, was influencing sentiment
against the bill
It is felt here that these delegates
would have a good chance to become
senator's in the event of admission
now. or at least that they would make
an effort for election
There is also some objection be
cause it is feared that Arizona may
send democratic senator.
According to Delegate Andrews
New Mexico will be admitted at th'
present session. Even though Sena
tor Beveridge opposes the bill he says
there is still every reason to expect
success.
Mr. Andrews says he does not feai
the opposition of the Hoosier states
man, and repeats his assertion that
viii come at this session. |

letter to Postmaster Graves
Bennington, VT.

Dear Sir: The cheapest thing in
the way of sending anything over the
world is a postage stamp; and the
cheapest way to shed water is paint.
Not whitewash paint. Do you hap
pen TO know-it don't belong to your
business to know about paint, you
know-do you happen to know that
most of the makers of paint stuff il
out with lime and clay and sand and
water and air?
They do stuff it out in t1e can; but
not on the house. They make more
gallons to sell or to buy; more mon
ey to pay for paint; more money to
pay for putting it on; a good deal
more money to pay for putting it on !;
but no more beauty; more rust; de-
cay; disappointment; loss.
Devoe is your paint, because it's all
paint, no sham, and full measure.
Yours truly,
+. w. Deyoe & Co.
