The Names Of the New States.

All sorts of names are being Sug-
likely TO be formed by the combination
of the territories Of Arizona and New
Mexico Outside of the latter territory.
however. there is a very general agree
ment that the name should no; be New
Mexico. There are already tire"
states whose names have the prefix
New and that is enough. Moreover.
the name New Mexico" was not par
ticularly happy designation for terri
tory and would b. still worse for a
state of the Union.
A dozen names are suggested for the
new state. some of them good and 9TH
ers absolutely impossible. Here are
some Of them: ''Montezuma. "tlbo-
Ia" ..Irrigata" Rio GranGe. "MeNona
and "Mexari." The first is the name of
a man who ruled over regions far TO
the south, but WAS never identified
with either of the territories. The
second is the name gwen by Spanish
explorers to Indian tribes in western
new Mexico. The name "Irrisate.
suggesting the regions great lack of
rain. is not TO be considered seriously
The name Rio Grande" would not be
inappropriate. as We have half dozen
states ell nance for great rivers. The
names last on the list are compounds
for which there is little justification.
The best name for the new state will
be Arizona, itself. 1t has long been
in use. IS thoroughly American and is
both disnified and melodious More
over. it will be balm for the feelings of
the AriZOni;,nS who are resisting the
consolidation of the two territories on
tn. ground that the New Mexico half
of the new state will get the big end of
the bargain. AS for the name of the
rev state which is to be formed by the
union of Oklahoma and Indian terri
tory, il will of course, be 'Oi:lahoIn:i.
No other name has been suggested
