" QUIT FOOLlNG."

The Santa Fe New Mexican asks
congress TO quit fooling with state
hood matters and to- get busy m pass
an enabling act. This is exactly just
what the people of New Mexico have
been asking for years, and from all
indications it is just what We will
hav to continue to ask just as long
as the Republican party is in power
in the country. Daily IL becomes more
and more evident that the Republican
members of congress are merely seek
ing excuses to either delay statehood
!. Here is the appeal from the New
Mexican:
New Mexico is not satisfied with
any arrangement that provides that
the present Congress pass merely an
act authorizing the territory to hold
q constitutional convention and then
submit the constitution to Congress
at it's next session with the idea that
ff II does not please these gentlemen
that IL be rejected and another con
s~titution more to their liking be draft
ed It is not the members of Con-
gress who are expected to live under
New Mexico's constitution but b
people of New Mexico. and they
should o be coerced into adopting
n fundamental law that does not fully
meet their own wishes. Why not do
away with the holding of a constitu-
tionai convention altogether and have
Congress formulate and adopt such O
document for the new state? What

Of that paper presents a few figures

paying counties of New Mexico are
the Democratic counties. and Claves

county is more than ninety per cent,
over ninety-three per cent to be more
accurate, and it is quite probable that
