obtained. or fail even to approximate
agreement among themselves.



The voters of Arizona have emphat-
ically rejected the proposition for
merger with New Mexico into a sim
gle state Almost to a man they
would favor separate statehood for
themselves, and they have in fact been
insisting upon it at several successive
sessions Of congress. The separate APP
plications of Arizona and New Mexico,
however, have encountered strong OPP
position in congress and elsewhere.
and the enabling act passed at the last
session was a compromise, in effect
leaving to the territories, voting sepa-
rately, the option of admission as one
state or both remaining out OF the
union indefinitely. The large majority
cast by Arizona against consolidation
of course defeats 1t. Notwithstanding
the contrary verdict in New Mexico.
The result will probably be TO con-
tinue the territorial status for a con-
siderable time, with no present means
of judging when or how it will be
changed for statehood. Such questions
have usually been finally decided on
party or sectional considerations. The
latter with special relation to the sit
uation in the United States senate
might take a turn in the not far future
that would bring in two states instead
of one. In the meantime the plight
of Arizona and New Mexico is by no
means intolerable, as they have a large
measure of self government, to the
support of which the national treasury
contributes a liberal share. relieving
territorial taxpayers, and both the
young commonwealth are growing
rapidly and prospecting.
