REPORT ON
STATEHOOD

Washington. March Ex-senator
Bevcridge today presented to the sen.
ate the report OF the committee on
territories favoring his bill in prefer
ence to that passed by the house.
for the admission OF New Mexico and
Arizona as separate states. The re-
port defends the changes made by the
senate committee in vigorous lang
uage. special emphasis being given TO
the refusal OF the senate bill to rec
ognlze the present election law of
Arizona.
The effect OF that law. it Is charged
would be to dsfranchlse large mum.
Der of the oldest and most substantial
citizens of the territory by reason Of
their Inability TO interpret the consti-
ligh. The house bill would make the
present Arizona law the test of quail
tications of citizens 10 vote.
The house provision is favored by
Democrats in both houses and prob
ably will engender the hottest fight
OF any OF the provisions.
Republicans In Arizona contend its
recognition would make the proposed
new state of Arizona certainly Demo
cratic and would handicap the Re
publicans in the territory TO such an
exteat they would not feel inclined
to make any fight for control of the
new state
The requirement OF the senate bill
that the constitution OF the proposed
states be approved by the president
and congress is defended 10y Senator
Beyeridge as a measure of Justice and
safety. Striking features of the SEN
ate bill are the restrictions thrown
about the disposition OF public lands
and the appropriation OF one million
acres to each territory for the pay
ment of county railroad bonds already
validated by congress The house
bill appropriated 100000 acres to
each territory and contemplates the
payment OF all bonds outstanding. The
bill would withdraw TO the govern
ment all of the saline lands of New
Mexico.
Another decided difference between
the two bills is In relation to polyg-
amy and bigamy to which Senator
Beveridgo says In his report:
The house bill would permit the
practice OF polygamy and bigamy, not
withstanding the various prohibitions
thereof"
According TO the senate bill, the
schools in the new states must be
conducted in English. The provision
OF the house bill that this require
ment should not prevent the teaching
OF Spanish was eliminated.
