of new states proves the vivifying ef-

THE STATEHOOD FIGHT.

The San Francisco Call has the fol

Spanish. and to Arizona, because her
mining lodges may pinch out.
THE right of self-government is a
constitutional right. The constitution
does not say that only those who
speak English have it, or that the i'm
mortality of mineral lodges only can
qualify @ territory for admission into
the Union.
New Mexico asked statehood fifty
two years ago. At that time Califor-
mia had as great a preponderance of
Spanish speaking people as New Mex
leo. That language did not keep New
Mexico out, but the slavery question.
She was south of the Missouri COM
promise line of SO degrees 90 minutes
and therefore was slave territory. ac.
cording to the compromise of 1920.
The more timid southern statesmen
and the northern leaders of public
opinion felt that the bonds of national
union could stand no further strain
arising in discussion of the slavery
question. So California was admitted
as a free state, with all her Spanish
habits. population, practices and even
jurisprudence upon her, and New Mex
leo was left to stew in her territorial
juice.
Then came the death and birth of
parties. The whig party wrote it's
obituary and the republican party is
used its prospectus. and the impetus
Of events was so rapidly toward civil
war that nobody had time to stop and
let down the bars to new states.
Now all these events are behind
