THE Los Angeles Times OF Sunday
published some correspondence be-
tween its editor, General Harrison
Grey Otis, aud Col. ]. H.. McCllntock,
OF Phoenix, on toe statehood question.
The evident object OF the correspond
ence was to give the general a chance
TO explain his position on the state
hood question Of a few years ago and
at present. When Senator Quay was
trying to get the statehood bill, which
provided for separate states OF Ariz.
ona and New Mexico, through the
senate the bin was opposed by General
Otis, and what is Of more Importance,
was opposed by the senator from
southern California, who was conced-
ed 10 be one OF the generals tools. He
was a member OF the committee on
territories, aud his vote was the odd
vote that gave the Beveridge crowd
the majority on the committee, and
his voice helped talk the bill to death.
General Otis says the reason he then
opposed the bill was because Arizona
did not have the population TO war
rant being made a state. He now OPP
poses statehood because the state is
too large, covers too much territory,
and promises when the proper time
ZONES he will support a bill to make a
state Of Arizona. Judging the future
by the past General Harrison Grey
Otis will and some good excuse to OPP
pose any bill that may be before con-
gress providing for the admission Of
Arizona or New Mexico as a state.
