Statehood Question Up.
In tho House today the most important
business promised was a report from the
committee on territories recommending
statehood for Arizona and New Mexico
after the people Of each territory shall
have voted on proposed amendments. A
minority report signed by the republican
members Of the committee urged the i'm
mediate admission Of New Mexico.
The House has decided to adjourn over
Monday because the order for that day
is the discharge Of committees. One of
the discharge motions would result in
calling up for action a forty-million-dollar
service pension bill. The passage Of this
bill is not on the democratic program for
the extra session.

SENATE IN DEADLOCK
Upper House Fails to Elect a
President Pro Tempore.
FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY
Insurgents Refuse to Support Sena-
tor Gallinger, Caucus Nominee.
SEVEN BALLOTS ARE TAKEN
Body Finally Adopts Motion Of La
Toilette to Postpone Further Vot-
ing Until Monday Next.
FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY
SEVEN BALLOTS ARE TAKEN

For the first time in history the United
States Senate is deadlocked over the
election of president pro tempore. And
for the first time in more than a decade
and half q republican majority found
itself unable to carry out . caucus edict
In the open Senate.
Senator Gallinger of Now Hampshire
was the republican caucus choice, but
eight insurgents-ave by their votes and
three by their pairs-refused to support
the caucus nominee. And the republican
majority in tho Senate is SO small that
this detection prevented Mr.. Gallinger's
election-prevented q choice Of any ono
by the required majority vote.
Seven ballots were taken In the Senate
yesterday afternoon for the selection Of
a president pro tempore. On the first
six Senator Bacon Of Georgia, democrat,
received IS votes: Mr.. Gallinger. regular
republican, received 80; Senator Clapp,
insurgent republican. received 4. On the
seventh the standing was relatively the
same, although Mr.. Bacon and Mr.. Gal
inger each lost one vote. During the
voting Mr.. Bacon voted for Senator TILL
man Of South Carolina. Senator CALM
ger-except ON the first vote, when he
asked to be excused from voting-voted
for Senator Lodge Of Massachusetts, and
Senator C1app voted for Senator Bristow
Of Kansas.

- ~AASS44OA4AOs
The comment was plainly directed at
the insurgents who refused to be bound
by the republican caucus. and It was
Senator La Toilette, the militant insur-
gent. who accepted the challenge. Re-
marking that such q precedent, II It is
made. will return many times to plague
the Senate hereafter" Mr.. La Toilette
continued:
IT do not recognize. sir, the right Of any
senator here. directly or Indirectly. to
make against me the criticism that am
voting against my party because that
vote is against the action of members Of
this Senate regarding the public business
in q secret meeting held in some place
outside this chamber. / deny the right of
any secret caucus held outside of the
Senate chamber behind closed doors, with
no reporters present. to dispose of the
public business or anything which may
exercise an important or controlling in
fuence upon the public business.
Il regard the election OF president
great Importance In the conduct Of its
business. 1t Is of tremendous Importance
at times Mr.. President, in determining
what measures shall pass this body. I dc
not propose to be read out Of the republic
can party because I cannot conscien-
tiously suppQce some man whom a num-
Der Of my party associates have agreed
upon In a secret meeting as their choice
for president pro tempore of the Senate -"
Mr. Borah. In explanation OF his pair,
announced that he was for Mr. Gallinger
but that he thought the circumstances
justified him in making a pair with Mr..
Works to accommodate the latter.

Regulars Rap Insurgents.

The voting Of the afternoon was mark
ed by acrimonious debate. Regular re-
publicans called to task ingurgent re-
publicans who refused to support the
party caucus action, and the insurgents
retorted that they refused to accept the
dictation of q secret caucus.
An effort was made by the regular re-
publicans to break the pairs, 30 that the
progressives paired in Mr.. Galunger'1
favor would be forced to vote for him.
Senator Bailey opposed that move, de-
claring that he would defy the Senate
to the point Of expulsion II he were or
dered to disregard a pair and to vote.
1t was after the third ballot that the
storm broke. When Senator Borah an
nounced that he would not vote, because
he was paired with Senator Works of
California, Senator Root objected and
asked that under one Of the Senate rules.
the Senate should decide whether Mr.
BoraIh was to be excused from voting.
It was q desperate move made by the
regulars.
Il do not wish the pairing Of two re-
publican senator's. which has the effect of
withdrawing two votes In opposition to the
democratic candidate. to 60 sub silentio. {"
Mr.. Root remarked. And I mako this
objection that It shall be understood that
the effect Of this proceeding is to destroy
two republican votes and defeat the can
didate Of the republican caucus, and, If
effective, to elect a democratic president
pro tempore of the Senate

Hepburn Causes q Laugh.

Senator Hepburn also objected to ex-
cusing Senator McCumber and Senator
Dixon from voting because they were
paired.
'One Of them was paired with a demo-
crat.' he commented, land one of them
with somebody else" A laugh at the ex-
pense Of the insurgents rang through the
chamber at the remark. Those who can
not support the party caucus, Mr. Hey-
burn commended, cannot rightfully con-
slider themselves as belonging to that
party.
Much discussion of the pair question
followed. and Senator Lodge. who was
in the chair. finally put to the Senate the
question whether or not the senators who
were paired should be excused from vot-
ing for that reason. The decision was
overwhelming that they should be ex-
cused.
But II was not alone on the pair Ques-
ton that the Senate became stormy.
After the third vote had been announced
and there had been no election Senator

Little Chance to Break Deadlock

And, what 10 moro significant, there
seems to be no chance for the breaking
Of the deadlock. During yesterdays vot-
ing every senator. except Mr.. Crawford

tions announced their intention Of stand

NEIGHB0RS HOPING
FOR A NEW RULING
On Acceptance of Official Publication
as Second Glass Mail Matter
Directors to Meet.

Commencing tomorrow the su-
preme board of managers of the Roy
al Neighbors of America will hold an
extended business session in this city,
during which time they expect to get
settled the question of admitting to
the mails as second class matter the
Royal Neighbor publications. appoint
an advertising manager and TO let
the contract for the printing of the
proceedings of the recent supreme
camp of the society held in Denver
also for the printing OF the publica-
ton of the new bylaws of the society
and the certificates of membership.
The matter which is uppermost in
their minds perhaps, is the publ
cation question. BY ruling hand
ed down by the third assistant post
master some time ago, neither the
Neighbors nor the WOodmen could
send their publications as second
class mail and carry advertisements
on the ground that the publications
did. not represent bonafide subscrip-
ton lists. but were paid for by the
society. BY change which has been
made III their application blanks in
accordance with resolutions passed
BY both societies at their recent
meetings, they hope to be able to
convince the postal authorities that
they have bonafde subscription lists
and therefore are entitled to the
rates charged for second class mail
matter. In the event they are sue
cessful an advertising manager will
be appointed at once.
