But because this is an omnibus bill. containing provisions for the admission of.the three Territories. it should not. in my judgment. lead us to treat them as a whole. The admission of a State into the Union of the States of this great nation is a matter of such prime importance that we should give the examination of the claims of each of these Territories that careful. that full. that considerate attention which they deserve. Oklahoma has the elements I have already mentioned which will continue to attract immigration within her borders. I think it has been the universal history of every political body in our country that has had agriculture for its source of development that with agricultural developments manufactures have sprung up. large cities have been built. trade and commerce have followed. and prosperity has abounded. I look forward to the time when in Oklahoma there will also be a development in other lines than agriculture which shall place her in the front rank of States.
