MAKING OF STATES IN THE
WESTERN COUNTRY.

If the desire for the consolidation
of states and territories had posses
sed the people of the East n genera
ton ago as II does now there woul,.
have been about three states in all
the inter-monntain region instead OF
seven or eight. 1t having been deter
mined that Arizona should not be
Joined with New Mexico as state.
those who feel that something should
he done with Arizona are now talk
ing of joining the territory of Neva-
ia. without seeming to realize that
snch a jointure will be rs unpopular

sltion.
The desire for consolidating the
western states and territories dates
back only To the time when free sill.

crn States were held responsible for

1t has been figured up several

carved large when they were created
ana later when they were settled IN

ne Idea in those DAYS was to have
states which were not too large for
orderly self government ana which
would not be too inconvenient for t.ic
people who resided In them.
