Hon. M. E. Driscoll, of New York,
states that public sentiment of the
nation has crystalized overwhelmingly
against separate statehood,
Syracuse. N. Y, Aug. 2, 1904.
Hon. B. s. Rodey.
Albuquerque, N. M.
my Dear Mr.. Rodey-I have just
received yours of the Goth inst and
am surprised At your statement that
some Of the people Of New Mexico
still think there Is a possibility of
separate statehood. The people OF
those territories have been agitating
a good while anG appealing to con-
gress for separate statehood, but while
they received some promises and the
enactment of a bill in one end Of the
capitol, they never had a chance of be-
ing created into separate states. The
bill making Arizona and New Mexico
one state and the other two territories
a single state, will, ! have no doubt,
pass the senate II the people want 1t;
but that is the best, or at least the
only form Of statehood Of which there
is any chance. Public sentiment Is,
in my Judgment. crystalized and over
whelmingly against separate state
hood, Your work has been SO tire.
Lass. persistent and Intelligent for
! statehood for your territory that II
/ seems to me the people should be
careful not to endanger the good re-
suits you have so far accomplished.
with kindest regards, am
sincerely yours,
