reported the result of the conference held
yesterday with Commissioner Judson rel

thing should be done. An estimate will

TALK ON HEALTH
Vital Religion Is Big Factor,
Declares Bowman.

Representative Charles c. Bowman, of
Pennsylvania. addressed the meeting for
men in the assembly hall Of the Y. NJ.
c. A. yesterday afternoon. Advice as to
the value of health and how to keep
healthy was the subject of his talk.
He said that good food. fresh afr. and
exercise are fundamental to bodily health
and that the sure road to vigorous
mind is. by way of the sound physical
basis.
Mr. Bowman spoke out Of a large ex-
perience in dealing with men, and OBJ
served that habits leading to deteriora-
ton of bodily powers were responsible
for many failures. Religion. especially
vital religion that takes hold of a mans
life and rules ii seven days in the week,
is. in the Representatives Judgment. a
big factor in self control and ultimate
good health.

How Speer Hopes to Win.
It is understood that victory for the
Speer faction would mean the transfer
of votes from Alva Adams to him, and a
deal whereby Adam would receive
the Speer support in the campaign for
the seat now occupied by Senator Gug-

have been attempted, but none Of them
has been agreed to by Speer.
The new primary law of Colorado goes
into effect next fall. In case the present

PLANNING TO CLEAR
STATEH0OD'S PATH
Probable Action Concerning
Arizona and New Mexico.

1t is believed that a way has been found
the path of Statehood for the Territories
Of New Mexico and Arizona.
The House Committee on Territories.
after many days hearings, has virtually
agreed upon a plan of appeasing men,
bers who find fault with both of the new
constitutions-the New Mexican instru-
ment because II does not provide easy
means of amendment, and the Arizona
constitution because the recall plan It
contains operates against the judiciary.
A subcommittee, consisting OF Repre-
sentatives Flood OF Virginia, chairman; !;
Humphreys OF Mississippi, Martin Of
Colorado Willis of Ohio, and Draper Of
New York. has been appointed with di
rections TO consider and submit to the
committee an amendment to the resolu-
ton TO admit both Territories. which
will require both of the new States at
their first election to submit to the peo-
pie for adjustment the points of diff
ference in regard to the constitutions
now existing. In other words, il is pro-
posed that to the people of the re-
spective new States shall be left the
final decision as to whether recall for
the judiciary shall remain in the Ari-
zona constitution and as to whether the
constitution of New Mexico shall be
revised in such manner as to permit Of
future amendment without having to
overcome mighty obstacles.
II is a queer circumstance that the
constitution of New Mexico, once rati-
fed by the House and close to a rati-
flcation in the Senate. has been brought
back for a minute examination. A dozen
OF so of New Mexico people are in town
with determination to impress upon
Congress the fact that the play of party
politics in the Territory caused the pro-
duction OF a constitution which forever
binds the people of that Commonwealth
&c certain principles. The citizens who
fought such a rigid instrument were at
first inclined TO withhold their protests
against its ratification in order that long
delayed Statehood might at last be
realized in some form. When the New
Mexico document got tangled up with
the Arizona constitution in the Senate,
however, they decided to come to Wash
ington and address the committee. The
House committee gave extensive hear
ings to these persons last week, and II
Is said that most of the members are
now inclined to the Belief that the con-
stitution should be modified in such man.
ner as to more readily permit of amend
ment. AS in the case Of Arizona and the
rtcdil' Ho"eNef' tHc coiiiiiiittee iouiiu IL
a difficult matter to make a compromise.
The requirements of the Statehood
enabling act in pursuance Of which con-
stitutional conventions and elections in
Arizona and New Mexico were duly held
practically order Congress and the Presi-
dent to reject or ratify the constitutions
as they stand.
The subcommittee will consider the
feasibility of adopting a resolution which
will ratify both constitutions, with the
understanding that the mooted questions
shall be submitted to the people at the
first general election.

WILL OPPOSE RECIPROCITY.
Northwestern Formers to Appear
Before Committee.


Before Committee.
A demonstration against the Canadian
trade bill will be made before the Sem
ate Committee on Finance by Northwest
ern farmers the latter part of this week.
The arrangements for this affair are in
the hands of Senator McCumber. OF
North Dakota, and Smoot, Of Utah, who
are bitterly opposed to Canadian reci-
procity The farmers invasion" was
planned some weeks ago The grangers
of the Northwest deluged their Repre-
sentatives in Congress with protests
against the Canadian BILL and, finally,
one of them suggested that the farmers
should appear here in person. North
western Senators and Representatives ap-
proved the idea, and now the announce
ment is made that the end Of the week
will witness the arrival in Washington
of two train loads of farmers. each and
every one of them guaranteed to be
real agrarain.
II the farmers invasion realizes the
expectations Of those who have charge
of the arrangements it will be one Of
the most picturesque affairs ever staged
before a committee of Congress Accord
ing to Northwestern Senators the dele
cation, comprising 300 or more, will be
made up exclusively Of farmers, who
want to tell the Senate. through the
Committee on Finance, that the rati-
fication Of the Canadian agreement would
be bad thing for the agricultural States
of the Middle and Northwest.
