ArizOna's Right to Her Identity.
l the New York Sun, August TO-

(From the New York Sun, August 1O)
 There are signs of a renewal, on the New Mexican side at least, of last years campaign to force Ari- zona into an undesired Statehood. The position of that territory was congress. The evidence was over whelming that Arizona would like to be admitted to the Union as Arizona, preserving the geographical boun- daries that now mark her separate existence as a territory, they would prefer an indefinite postponement to any merger with New Mexico.
 The proposal to conciliate them by styling the new state Arizona, thus giving them the shadow while they lose the substance, did not affect their attitude in the slightest degree.
 The spirit which Arizona showed last year and up to the adjournment of congress in March of the present year was natural and creditable. We now find one of the leading New Mexican newspapers, the AL buquerque Journal, predicting the passage of a bill at the next session of congress for the admission of Oklahoma and Indian Territory as one state and New Mexico and Ari- zona as another; and alleging, on the strength of one or two extracts from Arizona newspapers, that opinion there has changed. The Albuquerque Journal says:
 ''Since it has become settled be- yond any preadventure that we must go in as.one state or remain out in- definitely all elements of doubt have been eliminated, and when the propo- sition comes up to the people it will be accepted. The people of New Mexico and Arizona want statehood, and they are going to accept it just as congress offers it.
 "There has never been any doubt about the position of New Mexico upon this subject. Her people have always been in favor of self-govern- ment. In Arizona, however, the case has been somewhat different. A con siderable element in that territory hclo OCOh NlOlOhSlJ OPPOoOO IO oIdLC- hood, and if the proposition had been submitted to the people a year ago this element might have been able to defeat it, but American ideas are rapidly gaining the ascendency in Arizona"
 A bill enabling New Mexico and Arizona to vote separately on the question of joining their future des- tinies under one state government would be a fair measure. If major ity of the people of Arizona should so vote it ought to end the matter. But if the method of ascertaining the will of the people most concerned were what we understand the New Mexican newspaper to mean, that is, an election in which a majority of the two territories combined should determine joint statehood, with the voting population of New Mexico greatly outnumbering that of Ari- zona, then we should call the pro- ceeding anything but in accordance with ''American ideas.''
 To permit New Mexico to vote away for all future time Arizona's independent existence would be out rageouS. a
