sion OF Congress will not 60 beyond
giving authority TO the people OF New
Mexico and arizona to hold constitU-
tiOnal conventions and provide means
tor such Conventions In the opinions
Of leading members of Congress This
program Is I'm harmony With the mes.
sage Of President TAFT
The bin TO admit New Mexico and
Arizona only as separate states came
up before the Sixtioth congress. II
was predicted the message would 90
through the Senate quickly. Sucn
was not the case Some members OF
the Senate committee did moi like
the looks of certain land grants IN
individuals which bad been received
under territorial administration. Soma
claims for large holdings under Span.
lsh grants also were viewed with suS-
picion Furthermore. estimates com
ing from the territories as 10 popula-
tion were not accepted and It was
thought best TO delay action until aft
er the 1910 dccennial census could be
completed.
Mr. Tafts recommendation, II Is
said. viii supply the excuse for the
delay. Tho president urges that care
be exercised in the preparation OF
legislation affecting each territory TO
secure deliberation in the succession
OF persons as members of the conyen-
ton 10 draft u constitution OF the In
coming state and that such legisla-
ton. after adoption. by the conven-
tlons. shall be submitted TO the peo-
pie for their approval at an election
NJ which the sole issue shall be the
merits of the constitution
In the case Of the adoption Of the
constitution for Oklahoma the legiS-
lation was completed with the selec-
ton of state officers. and Mr.. Taft is
determined this situation shall not re-
cur in New Mexico and Arizona In
the event of there being no adoption
or rejection of the constitution. it Is
believed the best judgment of tho
people should prevail. Should the
conventions draft legislation which do
not adequately protect public inter
eStS in the matter OF safeguarding
public lands and national resources.
and should those constitutions be
adopted by votes Of the people Of the
territories. the president could reject
them if he desired and congress
could again open the way for the
adoption OF satisfactory constitutions.
This course was well near impossible
in the case OF Oklahoma in which the
people had expressed their choice or
state officers and justice had TO be
done them. Indications are that a
bill will be passed at this session pro-
y,dng for the means of holding con
stitutional conventions and for cleo
tons to pass upon the questions of
adopting OF rejecting constitutions. 1t
is believed that the eflec will be to
make it certain that two new stars
will be added TO the flag within a
year of the adjournment of the pres
cnt congress.
