THE Hon. Pedro Perea, who was
elected as a delegate to congress at
the recent election, hopes never TO
take his seat as a delegate. His term
does not commence until the fourth
OF next March, aud II there is nc extra
session OF congress he would not take
his seat until the first Monday 10
December, 1899. Mr.. Perea, however,
intends to go to Washington when
congress convenes next month and
urge the passing Of a bill admitting
New Mexico to statehood, aud ex-
poets the territory will be a state be.
fore the time comes for him 10 take
his seat. The main objection TO the
admission to the territory, during the
past few years has been the fear that
silver senators aud representatives
would be sent 70 Washington. Mr..
Perea Will show that AZ the last cleo
ton, for the nrst time since the silver
question has been a prominent one
the people have had a chance u
vote directly on the question. At al
previous elections there has always
been a silver plank or an cqniyocation
in both platforms, and the question
has not been squarely voted on. Al
this election the republicans stood
squarely on the plank adopted by thu
st. Louis convention. The democrat
made their aght squarely on the sllveI
question aud The republican delegat'
was elected by more than W thou
sand majority. This shows that TIT
people of the territory are ''sound' Of
the finance question. according to tn
~strictest tenets OF the ''hOnest money
faith. With a republican congress
and a republican president IL Is be
lIeved that the showing that will b
made by Mr. Perea will be convincing
and that New Mexico will soon be
state. IL Is to be hoped that he wi
be successful.
