Oklahoma and New Alexico
Now States
Washington, D. C, Fob. 8. After a
continuous session of nino hours, tho
senate at S:45 Inst night, passod tho
joint statehood bill. As passod tho bill
provides for tho admission as statos of
Oklahoma, comprising Indian Torritor
ity and Oklahoma, and New Mexico, ac
cording to tho present boundaries, with
Arizona eliminated.
Tho first surprise of tho day came
when tho committeo accepted Senator
Fornker's ainondmont, providing for a
separate vote by each of tho territories
of Arizona and Now Mexico on tho con
stitution to bo adopted by tho proposed
stato of Arizona, That provision was
scarcely mado part of tho bill whon
Bard presented his nmendmont, which
had been originally offered by Patter
son and provided for tho admission of
New Mexico as a state without the ad
dition of Arizona.
This amendment proved tho point
arouud which subsequent proceedings
of importance rovolvcd. Tt was first
adopted while tho senato was"' In com
mitteo of tho wholo and then rovorsed
in tho senate proper. Subsoquontly tho
souato decided entirely to eliminate
New Moxco and Arizona from tho bill.
This result was hardly announced
whon Bard, in a slightly changed form,
ronewed tho proposition for tho admis
sion of New Mexico as a stato, and this
time tho amendment prevailed Tho
effect wns to climinato Arizona from
tho bill and establish tho stato of Now
Mexico, and anothor from Oklahoma
and the Indian Territory. In this form
the bill passed.
