Those opposing statehood for Ari zona and Now Mexico., in the House have maintained all along that if op portunity was given for a direct vote on the specific question and not, as was the case on the necessity of de feating a rule direct from the speak er s room, tlia! thuv had plenty 'of votes to defeat .joint statehood. "There is no change in the temper of the Ilouse, so far as I can see." This was the statement made by Speaker Cannon at the White House regarding the statehood legislation. Statehood legislation was discussed by the President with several of his callers besides Speaker ('aniioii. Rep resentative Hamilton, of Michigan, chairman of the House committee on territories, declared the llon.'e would not accept the' Senate amendment ^ Former Delegate Dodey, of New Mexi co, who has been advocating .joint statehood for Arizona and New Mexi co expressed great disappointment at the action of the Senate. Senator ,Heveridge, Chairman of the Senate Committee on territories, talked to the President about the statehood legislation, but made no comments on il. It is learned that a vigorous elTort will be made to induce the House to < oncur in the Senate amendments. The movement will be supported by the Oklahoma and Indian Territory , advocates of statehood. The Fortification Bill. The Senate Committee on appro priations, which has the fortifications bill under considcation -board 'Jen. Cro/icr, chief of the ordinance bureau of the war department, and Robert S. W addell of the Peoria, 111., concern ing the ad visibility of the construc tion of a government powder plant. Two bills pioviding for such a plant | have been introduced in the house. One is by Representative Hull of Iowa appropriating $200,000 for a plant with a minimum output of 3,100 pounds of powder a day, and the oth cr is by Representative Williams of Mississippi, appropriating $7."K),000. with no stated capacity. The senate committor, appears not to favor the construction of a plant which will en ter into competition with private manufactories, hut leans toward the erection of a small plant for the pur pose of instructing the ordinance de partment and officers of the army^and navy and in all the details of powder making. The committee lias not V0t determined what recommendation it will make. " I ?SOU IH liAROUNA MflUEBS 0((iirrences of Interest From All Over South C drolin<i * MANY ITEMS 01 STATE NEWS I A.
