QUESTIONS ANSWERED..

We have received a request to ans
wer some questions for the benefit OF d
class In a distant school, and as they
may be OF interest TO some other per-
sons who are not Informed ON the sub
ects mentioned, we give place to the
matter in the Deseret News In response
TO the wish OF the writer.
First: How many citizens are neces-
eary for one Representative In the
United States Congress?
Second: How many Representatives
are there IN the present Congress-
Third; What steps are necessary TO
be taken IN order that a Territory may
become a State?
Fourth; What salary do each OF the
Judges Of the Supreme Court receive In
Utah and Arizona?
The number OF Representatives In
Congress for each State is based on It's
population. The present ratio Is one
Representative TO 17S, sOi persons.
The present number of members in
the House Of Representatives IS 357.
In order to gain admission into the
Union as a State, q Territory has 10
obtain an Enabling Act. which must
pass both houses OF Congress and be
signed by the President OF the United
States That act prescribes the terms
on which the Territory may be admitted.
A constitution, which must be repub-
lican in form. has to be adopted by a
majority OF delegates elected by the
|clfizens OF the Territory. at conyen-
|tion called FOR that purpose. II the
|constitution thus framed IL ratified by
1.-THE people at an election held for the
purpose. at which the State officers and

A copy OF the Constitution thus framed,
with q certified statement OF the votes
|cast for Its adoption must be forwarded
ITO the President of the United States.
|And T. found to be in accordance with
|the provisions OF the enabling act, by
proclamation OF the President the new
state is admitted into the Union on an
EQUAL footing with all the existing
States.
A few States In times past have been
admitted into the Union without the
passage by Congress OF an enabling
pct, after having framed their constltu-
fion and presented II to Congress and
70 the President. But the method we
have briefly described has become the
established process and will probably
continue TO be required. Application
Tor admission into the Union must OF
course be made by sufficient number

PURE and held In due form, and present

Question OF admission.
