TO Divide CALIFORNIA.
Agitation for a Ne1o State-Tdr
Methods Cause Dissatisfaction.

Washington Sept. 19.-The recent threat OF a
body of citizens in California to establish another
state within California borders because of dissatis-
faction with taxation methods has attracted the
attention of officials here.
The United States Constitution in Section OF
Article " provides that no new state shali DE
formed or erected within the jurisdiction of any
other state: nor any state be formed by the june
ton of states. parts of states, with
the Of the legislatures Of the states
concerned as well the Congress
This constitutional provision, together with the
manner in which California carved out of other
territory IS pointed 10 as a why such a
threat would likely never reach more definite form
II is not the first time that the question of the
division OF California has arisen even in so slight
a way, for taxation a problem that started
such an agitation as long ago 1879 Al that time.
during the constitutional convention at Monterey.
there was talk of overthrowing the northern infu-
in California. then territory. and to make
possible ultimate division of the state in case
the southern part proved be adapted to slave life
II include boundary enough for several
states" said one speaker during that time. 1T is
competent for the people the State of California
10 divide il hereafter. l have not the remotest
idea that Congress would give this great extent
of boundary if it was expected that it would re
main one state. The past history of our country
develops the fact that will have state upon
state here. When the population comes they viii
require that this state shall be divided"
Taxation a great problem during the 40s and
SOS. II was claimed that the southern part Of the
state from Monterey downward, was sadly neg
lected in early state legislation.
Not long before the outbreak of the Civil War
there renewed talk OF the division OF the
state. and there have been meetings in Los Angeles
and Santa Barbara County and elsewhere at yari-
Gus times in a sporadic effort along this line.
