POWERS OF CONGRESS.

The Astcc index recently said Mat
tcrs that concern the people OF a country
or a state or territory should be submitted
to them and receive the approval or dis.
approval of the ballot. The voters of New
Mexico are the ones to decide the Joint
statehood question, and not a few Office
holders, who represent in their own right
less than a hundred votes
No donbt this is true, says the Albuquer-
que Citizen, in theory, and most of the
people of New Mexico are anxious that it
be true in fact; but unfortunately theory
and fact may seperate on that very point.
Here are the facts. New Mexico and Ariz-
ona consist largely of conquered territory,
and what was not conquered was bought;
so that neither of them belongs to itself,
but both are property Of the nation which
conquered and bought them. Then also
in the treaty of peace which acknowledged
the conquest, the future of the section was
placed entirely in the hands OF congress,
the agent and representative of the con-
quering and purchasing nation. Congress
alone has the disposition of the question,
and need not ask any questions OF the peo-
pie either in New Mexico or Arizona.
As congress separated Arizona and New
Mexico into two territories, without asking
the people anything about it; SO congress
can at her own will and pleasure continue
