BY a majority that will total
considerably over sixteen thousand
votes the people of New Mexico
at the election held yesterday rati-
fed the constitution framed by their
delegates in Santa Fe and passed the
mile stone on the way to statehood.
The result of this election with t'f'
approval of the constitution
president and congress pract,>
assured. means the immediate admis-
sion. at the present session OF con-
gfels. OF New Mexleo into the Union
on an equal footing with the other
states.
The majority OF sixteen thousand is
based on incomplete returns from
almost every county In the territory
and the size Of the majority in
creases as the returns become more
complete.
The constitution will likely lose in
Sierra, San Juan and Lincoln coun-
ties; every other county will give a
majority for statehood. While the
vote was by no means a full one It
was large enough to show that the
people in every precinct of every
county showed lively interest In the
outcome and that the great mass of
the citizens of New Mexico want
statehood and endorse the constitu-
tion under which we enter the
Union.
The opposition worked hard on
election day but their efforts were
powerless TO stem the irresistible
tide of ballots for government
and progress. The result demon
strates once and for all that the peo-
pie of this territory demand recog-
milton of their rights as American
citizens and that the sentiment for
statehood Is strong everywhere re-
gardless of party affiliations.
The latter fact is shown by the
big majorties rolled up in the Pecos
valley with Roswell showing ma
jority OF over 1000 and the Chaves
county vote running almost seven to
one In favor of the constitution.
curry county gives substantial ma
1ority and Clovis, the county seat,
