b longing to the atate.
. At 2 o'clock the militia bill was dis
placed by the statehood bill. Mr. Beverldge
(Ind.) then made tho point of no quorum,
necessitating a recall.
A quorum being found to be present, Mr.
Beveridgo sent to tho desk and bad read a
number of resolutions favoring single stats
hood for Oklahoma and Indian Territory. '
Mr. Quay (Pa.) criticised the resolutions
and said the single statehood bill to which
they referred was not before ths senate,
having been withdrawn, and therefore they
had acted unlntelllgently.
"You have done away with your bill,"
said he, addressing Mr. Beverldge. He said
the parties attending the convention which
drew up .the resolutions had masqueraded
as a representative convention of the people
of Oklahoma, whereas it was a convention
of l be . advocates of ths Nelson or single
statehood bill.

observations of the subcommittee which
visited Oklahoma and Indian Territory were
that a vast majority of the people favored
single statehood.
Mr. Bate (Tenn.) had read the resolutions
of the Cve civilised tribes favoring state
hood with Oklahoma.
A discussion followed regarding the char
acter of the people constituting the Ave
civilized tribes, in the course of which
Mr. Tillman inquired how the pure blood
white, men got title to so much Indian
land. "Some stealing has been dona some
where," said, he, "and I would like to knew
how it happened."
After further discussion, Mr. Nelson
(Mlon.) resumed his remarks in opposition
, to the omnibus statehood bill.

VAN SANT KEEPS IP FIGHT
Governor of KitiusoU Deals with Prorotid
' Railroad Merger.
REFERS TO LITIGATION IN MESSAGE
ays Consolidation la n Urbeme to

Doubt Courts Will t pbold
Usi of the Slate.
8T. PAI L, Jan. 7. In the presence of
both hcuses of tho legislature Samuel F.
Van Bant was today sworn In by Chlel
Justice Stuart for his second term as gov.
ernor of Minnesota. He then read his
mPHsas,,i to tho Joint assembly.
Governor Van Sant deals exhaustively
with tho controversy wagicg between the
state of Minnesota and the Northern Securl- !
ties company, to prevent the alleged merger I
of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific
Railway companies. j
After reviewing the progress that has
been made In the state's suit agalunt the
company, tho governor says:
The executive officers of the state are
doing and will continue) to do all in their
power to defeat this consolidation. It may
be that the court will decide that the taws
of one state can be evatred or violated by
means of a eoiDoratlon orirniitxed under the
laws of another state. It so, all the benefits
ot tne "more perfect union, so earnestly
sought by tha trainers of tha constitution
and so much desired bv all law-abldlna
eltlzt-ns, will not be realised. I have an
abiding faith, however, that the laws of
the et.-ite will be sustained and that the
attempt to evade them In the manner stated
win oe detested.
The law of this stste prohibiting the con
solidation of competing railway lines Is
declaratory of a wise public policy, and any
effort to weaken or undermine It should be
defeated and every effort put forth to en
force and strengthen its provisions.
Stifles Competition.
This Northern Securities company Is the
most Ingenious scheme ever brought into
existence to promote a transportation mo
nopoly and stl!le Ci mpetltlon. It be
comes the ImperVlve duty of this state
to Hcii pt such a'litional laws as may be
necessary for the proper regulation and
control of such trusts.
Our state lu engaged In a great legal bat
tle to protect our rights. The stats of
Washington has a suit pending In the su
preme court of the I'nlted States, and by
order of the president. Attorney General
Knox has commenced action looking to the
dissolution of thla company. Realising the
power of corporate wealth, congress has
appropriated nuo,oiiu to aid the general offi
cers of the government In prosee'My this
and other illegal trusts and unlawful com
binations. Whatever the result there need be no ap
prehension, fur there Is a power greater
than nil corporate wealth, greater than the
supreme court of the United States, and
that Is the power of the American people,
and when once aroused no evil can resist
this mlg.ity force.
Deals with 'Mate Affairs.
Other portions of the message deals with
state affairs. The board of control Is con
gratulated upon its successful and econom
ical management of state institutions, but
the governor recommends that the state
educational Institutions the normal schools
and the university be relieved from the
supervision of the board of control and be
under the sole Jurisdiction of their separate
boards.
The primary law is declared to have been
a success In Jts first operation, but several
changes are suggested.
The governor recommends that the 4 per
cent gross earnings tax laws, whltfh failed
of ratification at the last election, be re
submitted, and he suggests that the state
law relating to the railroad and warehouse
commission be so changed as to prohibit
railway companies from raising the rates
on any commodities or merchandise or from
so changing classifications as to have that
effect, between station In .this state, with
out first obtaining the consent of ths com
mission. "
He strongly favors the good roads move
ment and recommends that provision be
made for a state highway commission.
If funds are available, he recommends
that $150,000 be appropriated tor the estab
lishment of an sanitarium for consumptives
in the pine woods district..
LANSING, Mich., Jau. 7. Both branches

HELENA, Mont., Jan. 7. Governor

COLORADO . FORCES SPLIT
Senatorial Fight Divides Republicans,
Thus Making: Wolcolt's Elec
tion Donbtfal.
DENVER, Jan. 7. The general assembly,
which is to elect a successor to Senator
Teller, met at noon today.
The republicans have a majority, of three
tn the house, but only seventeen of the
thirty-four republican members attended
the caucus this forenoon, those opposed to
Edward O. Wolcott for senator refusing to
Join, and it Is understood that a deal has
been made between the antl-Wolcott repub
licans and the democrats which will pre
vent the election of Wolcott.
The democrats have a majority, of thirteen
in the senate and of ten on Joint ballot, but
the republican leaders had planned to un
seat seventeen or more democratlo mem
bers of the house, thus securing a, majority
on Joint ballot. It is said that the antl
Wolcott republicans have now agreed to
unseat only bIx members, and while this
will give the republicans sn apparent ma
jority (ot two on Joint ballot, the result of
the senatorial election will still be In
doubt, as two members who have been
counted as republicans were nominated by
the democrats as well as the republicans,
and It Is uncertain whom they will support
for senator.
With Wolcott out of the race, the leading
republican candidate Is Frank C. Goudy.
After more than six hours' voting, dur
ing which the division of the vote of the
republican members who are In the majority
made the election of a speaker impossible,
the lower house of the fourteenth general
assembly effected compromise organisa
tion. Durttg ths early voting the vote stood
17 each for the Wolcott and antl-Wolcott
candidates and SI for the democratic candi
dates. Late In the oftrnoon a combina
tion was formed between the antl-Wolcott
republicans and the democrats which re
suited In the clectlcn of J. B. Sanford of
Douglas county as speaker, John F. Vivian
as chief clerk, M. R. Plummer as sergeant-at-arnis
and A. E. R. Lyons as first aa
sistant sergesnt-at-arma. AH those are
ntl-Wolcott republicans except Lyous, who
Is a democrat.
It Is understood that Ihs agreement gives
ths republican speaker practically all ths
pstronsge of the house, but prevents the
unseating of the eleven Denver representa
tives who are democrats.
It Is not believed tint a I'nlted 8tates
senator to succeed Senator Teller can be
chosen at this session.
MORE REVENUES "ARE NEEDED
Governor of Sew lork ( alts Attention
ot l.rstlslalnre to Affair
of State.
ALBANY, N. Y.. Jsn. 7 Both brsnchrs of
the state legislature convened at noon to
day. The governor in his snnual message said
that for the year ending September SO,
11K. new revenues amounting to $5.o00,000
would be necessary. Referring to the rela
tions between capital and labor the gov
ernor said:
I believe that wherever the neressarles of
life are Involved in dispute between em
ployer and employe, that power should be
conferred upon thoee affected to apply to
the courts for relief, and that no power
should be possessed bv either ranltal or
labor to deprive the people of that which Is
necessary for their welfare, but that amn e
authority should be lodged In the Judiciary
to properly enJorco its mandates, and that
such dispute whenever thev arls should
not be permitted to Interfere with those
rights which are paramount and necessary
lor ine weuoeing oi ins people. iToper leg
islation, therefore, should be accorded for
this arbitration, either by amendment or by
inn enactment or new legislation.
The franchise tax, the governor asserts, Is
Inequitable and a source of annoyance and
constant litigation. Some corporations can
bear the burden without serious results fol
lowing, but, he says, the increase in de
mand for many public utilities has brought
into existence many corporations which
cannot bear the excessive burden which is
Imposed under the present law. The only
safe and conservative way of assess 1 Eg
such corporations, he contends, is upon
their earning capacity. Continuing, the
governer says:
It appears to ms that In providing new
revenues advantage should be taken of a
more liberal mortgage tax and the rens
sumption of privileges which were surrend
ered to localities under the so-called fran
chise tax law.
The governor recommends drastlo legls
latlon, if need be, to remedy the deplorable
state of affairs which he says exists in the
police force of New York City.
Concerning the national guard and labor
unions, the governor says:
There have been Instances In the state
when employers have dischargee emploves
because of their connection with the na
tional guard, notably In the case resulting
from the Brooklyn railroad strike. Cer
tain labor unions now deny their privileges
because of membership in the natlownl
guar (i. jnis ts a blow at constitutional
government. The law at present is Inade
quate to meet this condition, and It should
be your duty to correct It by amendment.
I believe whatever tends to lessen the
patriotism of our people in out of hirmony
with republican government, and I com
mend this subject to' your consideration,
with the recommendation that such offenses
be made misdemeanors and that adequate
punishment be provided for.'

"Ths State Board, of Arbitration," hs
said, "has rapidly grown In Importance until
It ranks among the most potent factors In
the Industrial world. The arbitration law,
as Drat enacted, prove) to be defective In
many respects, leaving the bosrd practically
without power to do anything.
"From time to time the law has been
mended, until now It is quite commonly
looked upon as being In advance of all
other state arbitration laws. The results
accomplished have Inspired general public
confidence in the board.
"It has saved millions of dollars to em
ployers and employes. The preservation of
industrial peace la of such high Importance
to all ot the people that an agency which
contributes so much to that end as this
board haa contributed, and as it will con.
tribute In the future, ought to receive the
most liberal consideration at the hands ot
the general assembly.

was guarded by the chief rriest.
The venerable chief Nabha, escorted by
men mounted on richly caparisoned horses
and accompanied by hounds and hswks
was a striking feature of the display
which for wealth of coloring, diversity of

be considered to have been the most bril
liant of the Durbar display.
Almost Incalculable wealth of gold and
sliver was displayed as the seemingly
never ending medley of elephants, camels,
troops, musicians and carriages, represent
ing the different Indian states, passed and
maneuvered before the dlas. The elephants
carried howdahs and trappings of the
purest gold and I'.ver. There were car
rlagcs of pure silver, snd sedan chairs of
gold. During temporary stoppages of the

yelled their battle cries and fought In the
arena.

Because w overeat of them. Indi
gestion follows. But there's a way to
escape such consequences. A dose of a
good digestant lik Kodol will relive you
at once. Your stomach Is simply too
weak to digest what you eat. That's alt
indigestion is. Kodol digests the food
without the stomach's aid. Thus ths
stomach rests while the body is strength
ened by wholesome food. Dieting is un
necessary. Kodol digests any kind of
good food. Strengthens and invigorates.
