will be made to secure their passage dur
ing the coming winter, and there is no
reason why there should be much oppo-
sition, except, possibly, in the case of
Utah.
The question of admitting Utah is
rendered doubtful by the ever-present
problem of polygamy. If it were out of
the way, there would be but little, If any,
opposition to the passage of an act
enabling the people of that territory to
erect state government Indeed, it
may be said that if it had not been for
this obstacle, Utah would have been ad-
mitted long ago. Probably, however, it
is well that the matter has been delayed,
for the determination of tho future Of
Nevada may be involved in the question
as to the conditions under which Utah
should be admitted. Nevada has not
population enough for state, but there
is no power short of that which would be
revolutionary By which it would be de-
prived against its will of its rights as a
member of the Union. 1t has beer sug-
gested that Utah should obtain entrance
to the Union by becoming part of
Nevada, and it is suggestion which has
much to commend it to the approval of
thoughtful men.
Oklahoma's situation is somewhat
similarity complicated. OF itself it has
population enough for state, and there
is no doubt that the inhabitants could
maintain a state government with advant-
age to themselves. But provision must
be made for the future of the Indian ter
ritory, which lies along side. The popu-
lation of the Indian territory is of a
character to forbid the erection of a sepa-
rate state government for it. But if it
were united to Oklahoma and the two to-
gether were let in as one state, the white
population of the latter would neutralize
the dangerous and barbarous elements of
the former. The act admitting Oklahoma
should provide also for union between
Oklahoma and the Indian territory.
Concerning New Mexico and Arizona,
there is nothing to be said which has not
been said hundred times already. Each
of them has population and wealth enough
to justify the erection of state govern
ment The illiteracy of Il large per cent
age of the population of New Mexico is
an Oh lection in the minds of some per-
sons to its admission, but it is not an
OBJ lection which IS entitled to much
weight when the fact is considered that
the actual number of illiterates is small.
That injurious influence would be over
come soon by immigration, to say moth
ing of the educational work which Is
being done by the public schools.
In justice to the inhabitants of these
territories, they should be permitted to
erect state governments, and thereby
acquire those rights of self-government
which constitute the most valuable po-
litical heritage of American citizens

Press Comments Oh Territorial
Affairs.
A Narrow View.

1t has been suggested to the Optic by
the mayor and other public officials of the
two Las Vegas cities, and of the county OF
San Miguel, that the call for the irriga-
ton convention at Deming, as made by
the governor of the territory, is so limited
and sectional as to preclude all those who
are not interested in the development OF
the Rio Grande valley, and to exclude all
those who arc not prepared to enter upon
a crusade against Colorado, for the use of
water in the upper Rio Grande valley.
Las Vegas is not interested largely in
those questions.-Las Vegas Optic.

Grand Canon Of Colorado River.

On the Santa Fe route, in northern
Arizona, 1862 miles from Kansas City, is
the town of Flagstaff. A tri-weekly stage
line runs from Flagstaff to the Grand
Canon of the Colorado river. More than
mile in depth, this is the sublimest of
gorges- Titan of chasms. Twenty
Yosemites might be hidden unseen below,
and Niagara would look scarcely larger
than brook.

the world. You can "read up about it by
asking G. T. Nicholson, G. P. & I. A., A..

The few failures recorded in New Mex
leo during the late financial panic, when
almost the entire west, elsewhere, was up
rooted by the storm, make sound and
substantial advertisement to the whole
world of our good financial condition and
the careful business methods OF our lead
ing business men. When these facts be-
como generally known they can not fail
to draw attention to the great variety of
the territory's resc urces, and to show that
even the humiliation of the silver mining
industry can not affect New Mexico's
growth.-Las Vegas Optic.

together, and devising ways and means to stop
such unlawful use and diversions Of the water Of
