okLAHoMA's RIGHT
TO STATEHOOD.

- - . - LFNAOGs
washington Post)
The creation Of the new state Of
Oklahoma, composed Of the present
territory of Oklahoma and Indian Ter.
ritory, win probably be one of the
features Of this winters work in con.
gress. Public sentiment favors the
creation Of this new state, and both
houses Of congress are apparently in
accord with the feeling OF the people
The failure or political manipulators
to induce the people of Indian Terri
tory to follow the foolish attempt to
make a state of that territory alone
indicates that the people OF two terri.
tories are ready and willing to enter
the Union az one state.
The fitness and the right OF these
territories to be admitted should be
considered without regard 10 the ques.
ton of admitting Arizona and New
Mexico, jointly or separately The
large. intelligent homogeneous popu-
lation OF the proposed new state Of
Oklahoma. its natural and accumulated
wealth, its geographical position, and
its compact form all entitle it to con.
sideration for its own sake The state
Of Oklahoma would add strength to the
Union. The best interests OF the Uni.
ted States. as well as the interests Of
the population concerned, would be
advanced by the admission of Okla
homa.
After a thorough study of the mat
ter, congress will conclude, we hope.
that Oklahoma should be admitted into
the Union on an equal footing with the
other states It would be unwlse, for
example to insert In the enabling act
ANY provision attempting to bind the
new state to a fixed policy on the
liquor question. or any other matter
coming within the sovereignty of
state An attempt thus 10 fetter the
free will OF a state would be of doubt
full constitutionality, and certainly an
infringement upon the powers that are
lodged in a state. The people OF Ok
lahoma, If they are entitled to admis-
sion as state, are surely competent
to settle for themselves the question
whether or not prohibition is the cor
rect policy for their state They
should not be required to give pledge
for ten years. or for any other period,
to follow a course prescribed by con-
gress. Advance legislation by con.
gress on local questions would be as
pernicious in actual results as such
legislation would be after the state had
been invested with full sovereignty.
If legislation inside state on the part
of congress is unconstitutional. It Is
difncuIt to understand how congress
can find a constitutional method of
mortgaging the legislation of com
munlty about TO become a state.
It Is evident that the eligibility of
New Mexico and Arizona for statehood
viii be discussed at length during the
coming session, and ~. chances Of
admitting either or both are slender.
II would be grossly unjust to the pop.
ulous and highly civilized territories
of Oklahoma and New Mexico to keep
