broke out JHG colonies
were thirteen in number.
They were dependents of the Eng
lish government, and subject to the
English king.
Each of the thirteen colonies,
however, enjoyed a certain amount
of independence of self-govern-
ment-just enough, in fact, to make
it clear that they could very easily
manage all their own affairs. BY
the Declaration of Independence
and the struggle that secured it
each one Of the colonies became
virtually a separate nation.
Then the colonies, with freedom
won, adopted each for itself a con-
stitution based more or less direct
ly upon the original charter which
had been granted to it by the
crown. In fact, Connecticut and
Rhode Island adopted their Eng
fish charter VERBATIM as their
new constitution.
From 1888 to 1890 the thirteen
independent states became a Union,
and this Union had, in turn, to be
provided with constitution. There
we're then fourteen constitutions in
active operation.
From that time to this, new com
muntties have grown up and have
petitioned to be admitted to the
Union. This IS allowed when a
sufficient population is attained and
a constitution submitted that is

upon the work of the league. were

able to its success. On motion,
the mater was referred to the
board of control.
This auto road is of good deal
of Importance to this county and
especially to the town of EIko and
every effort possible should be
made to put it through. AS we
understand the proposition. very
little money will be required TO
pnt the present road in good
shape Tor auto travel from the
Utah line to Eureka county line
on the west. This enterprise
should be carefully investigated
and no time should be lost by the
Development League in placing
it properly before the county COM

Good progress is being made in
