Making in 8 States 1920

Thus we find the Mississippi Territory al
most doubles the whole OF the eight states last
mentioned, and is more than double the size of
any two states III the union, except irginia.
The representatives OF the states, We should
presume, will never agree that state should
include the whole territory. lfthe division be
once made, there is very little doubt but within
short time, two states might be added TO the
tnion-withOut it be divided, we do rot ina
CINE 1t ever wiii--we have not forgot how the
attempt miscarrisd last winter. For many rea-
sons we wish success to those aiming at state
sovereignty, IN this quarter OF the union; but
we should be very unwilling to see the whole
territory III one. Tennessee and Kentucky
would be but pignies near such a giant.
