ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO.
The action of the house of repre
sentative? in passing a bill to ad
mit -Ar.zona and New Mexico to
statehood will hardh lind favor
with the country. It is true Ari
zona, which is much the smaller of
the two in population, had almost
as many inhabitants in 1$'J(1 as
Wyoming, which became a state in
that year, Wyoming's total being a
little .above and Arizona's a little
below the 00,000 mark, while Xew
Mexico had about 153,000 at the
time, surpassing Idaho and Nevada
as well as Wyoming among the
states. The objection to admission
for these U-rritories, however, is not
based on any paucity of inhabi
tants, but chieily oil the character
ot those inhabitants. In both terri
tories the percentage of illiteracy is
very great. It is greater than in
any other section of the west. A
large part of the population are
Mexicans, who know little and care
little about the hugli.-h language.
That part of the national domain
was. obtained from .Iexico forty or
lifty years ago, and many of the
people living in it are descendants
of its residents of that period, and
retain the language as well as the
habits of thought of its original in
habitants. Immigration has trans
formed Texas and California,
which also were formerly Mexican
territory, into intelligent, enter
prising and progressive American
comr iunities, but the Anglo-Saxon,
Teuton and Ceit have not found so j
many attractions in Arizona or
A Husband's Signature Veld.
A very curious caso in which a hns-'
band executed a will which had been
prepared for his wife, and the wife . exe
cuted a will which had been prcpnrea"
ror ner Husband, has recently been de
cided by the general teiin of the supreme
court of tins state. John and J?ae Nel
son, eirs bn?baod and wife, jited to
make wills each in favor of the othr,
aud employed William Cowie to pre
pare the. instrument, which he did in
due form.
The willa were read and placed upon
the table for signature. Each then
surr.ed one of the wills, made the re
quisite declaration as to the character
of the instrument and asked the sub
scribing witnesses to fcign. After exe
cution the wills were sealed up in an en
velope, which was not opened until after
the husband's death, when it was dis
covered for the first time that each had
by mistake signed the will intended for
the other. The wife brought a suit in
the supreme court to correct her hus
band's mistake in signing tho wroiu
will by re-forming the language of the
will which he did actually execute, so
as to make it conform to that which ha
certainly intended to execute.
Her complaint was dismissed 'at tho
Fpecial term, however, and the appellate
branch of the supreme court holds that
the dismissal was right. Mr. Justice
Martin, in tho opinion of the general
term, says in substance that there is no
will to correct, because the husband did
