manne worthy of the respect and
praise of any people.
The progress made by the peo-
pie of the territory under terrific
rial government, the solutions OF
grave questions in adverse circum-
stances, should be a strong and a
conclusive argument that the citi-
zenship of this territory is of such
a standard as to be perfectly capa-
bic of administering the affairs of
a state.
Those who have lately imi-
grated to this territory from the
states have come to make their
homes and to contribute their part
to the development of the new
country and it's institutions, and
among all such people the desire
for statehood is paramount to any
other question.
las take it, we are waging a
fight for statehood and anything
that can be done toward obtaining
it should be done, and since it is
we'll known that the proposition
meets with the disapproval of many
eastern people, the disapprova |
cannot be overthrown without ag-
gressive and intelligent efforts on
our part. If we adopt a constitu-
ton that reflects craftsmanship,
nd gives evidence of strength and
u%stice, it will be a long step to-
ward dispelling the erroneous idea
| about the conditions in this terri
