ANNEXATION OF rraH.


Last week Congressman Oates intro
dsced 10 the House the bill providing for
the anuexiug of Utah to Nevada This
question Of annexation has been discussed
at intervals in this Stste for years, but
no positive steps have been taken in the
matter, as the scheme has been looked
upon as somewhat visionary. But now
that the real question of annexation is
to confront US the people Of Nevada must
express their wishes. The people of
Utah will have no direct voice in the
matter, as Congress has the power to
divide or cede Territory at will. The
acceptance Of the ceded Territory remains
also with Congress, as the Legislature of
the State of Nevada in 1887 gave them
that right. The act is as follows
Section l. The consent of the State of
Nevada is hereby given to the annexa
ton to this State of any part Of the ter.
ritory Of the United States which Con.
gre-s may deem proper, upon such terms
and conditions as Congress shall pre-
scribe.
OF course the people Of western
Nevada will be dead set against annexa.
ton, their main reason being the loss Of
the capital. The Reno Gazette says the
whole thing is a job" the excuse given
is desire to reduce the taxes in this
State, but in all probability it is to give
Utah Statehood to please some ambitious
individual or individuals for political
purposes and make money for the pro.
moters. If the plan does not miscarry
